It has been found from experience that the mean breaking strength of a particular brand of thread is 9.72 oz with a standard deviation of 1.4 oz. Recently a sample of 36 pieces of thread showed a mean breaking strength of 8.93 oz. Can one conclude at a significance level of (a) 0.05, (b) 0.01 that the thread has become inferior?

Find the measure of the interior angles of the following regular polygons: a triangle, a quadrilateral, a pentagon, an octagon, a decagon, a 30-gon, a 50-gon, and a 100-gon.

Now max recorded the heights of 500 male humans. he found that the heights were normally distributed around a mean of 177 centimeters. which statements about max’s data must be true? a) the median of max’s data is 250 b) more than half of the data points max recorded were 177 centimeters. c) a data point chosen at random is as likely to be above the mean as it is to be below the mean. d) every height within three standard deviations of the mean is equally likely to be chosen if a data point is selected at random.

George writes the mixed number as sum and uses the distributive property 1/2.-2/5=1/2-2+2/5=1/2
