In a random sample of 7 residents of the state of Maine, the mean waste recycled per person per day was 1.4 pounds with a standard deviation of 0.23 pounds.
a. Determine the 95% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Maine. Assume the population is approximately normal.
b. Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval.
Answer:
a) The 95% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Maine is between 1.19 and 1.61 pounds.
b) [tex]T_c = 2.4469[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 7 - 1 = 6
95% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 6 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.4469, and the answer to question b is [tex]T_c = 2.4469[/tex]
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.4469\frac{0.23}{\sqrt{7}} = 0.21[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 1.4 - 0.21 = 1.19 pounds.
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 1.4 + 0.21 = 1.61 pounds.
The 95% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Maine is between 1.19 and 1.61 pounds.

The number that satisfies the given statement is 3.
We are given that twice a number increased by the product of the number and 14 results in 48.
We will find the value of the number that we used in the given above statement.
Understand the meaning of the keywords used in the statement.Increased means addition.
Product means multiplication.
Results mean equal to sign.
Let's write the given statement in equation form.
Consider P = the number
Twice a number = 2P

Answer:
25.40
Step-by-step explanation:
tickets ( 2 at 10.95 each) = 2* 10.95 = 21.90
popcorn ( 1 at 7.50) = 7.50
Total cost before discount
21.90+7.50=29.40
subtract the discount
29.40-4.00 =25.40
Answer:
Yep! That's correct!
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that Marilyn and her sister are each getting a ticket that cost $10.95. They are also getting a $7.50 popcorn to share. Let's add those values up.
(10.95 * 2) + 7.50 {Multiply 10.95 by 2 to get 21.90.}
21.90 + 7.50 {Add 7.50 to 21.90 to get 29.40}
$29.40 (without the credit) in toal
A credit on a movie reward card functions as a discount, so what we need to do next is subtract 4 from 29.40. That will get us $25.40 as the total cost.
After doing the math, I can deduce that your answer is correct!
Determine whether the statement below makes sense or does not make sense. Explain clearly. Based on our sample, the 95% confidence interval for the mean amount of television watched by adults in a nation is 1.9 to 3.5 hours per day. Therefore, there is 95% chance that the mean for all adults in the nation will fall somewhere in this range and a 5% chance that it will not.
A. The statement makes sense. There is 95% probability that the confidence interval limits actually contain the true value of the population mean, so the probability it does not fall in this range is 100%−95% =5%.
B. The statement makes sense. There is 5% probability that the confidence interval limits do not contain the true value of the sample mean, so the probability it does not contain the true value of the population mean is also 5%.
C.The statement does not make sense. The probability the population mean is greater than the upper limit is 5% and the probability it is less than the lower limit is 5%, so the probability it does not is 5%+5%=10%.
D. The statement does not make sense. The population mean is a fixed constant that either falls within the confidence interval or it does not. There is no probability associated with this.
The correct option is A because
The statement makes sense. There is 95% probability that the confidence interval limits actually contain the true value of the population mean, so the probability it does not fall in this range is 100%−95% =5%.
From the question we are told that:
Confidence interval [tex]CI=95\%[/tex]

There is no mode.
Write down the four
numbers.
Answer:
5, 7, 9, 11
or
5, 6, 10, 11.
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean is 8 so the total value of the 4 numbers = 4*8 = 32.
Range is 6 so largest number - smallest = 6
The largest value is 11 so the smallest is 11-6 = 5
The middle 2 numbers add up to 32-(11+5) = 32 - 16
= 16.
- and as there is no mode they must be 7 and 9

Amanufacturer of potato chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 433 gram setting. It is believed that the machine is underfilling the bags. A 26 bag sample had a mean of 427 grams with a variance of 324. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled?
Answer:
There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the bags are under filled.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Population mean, μ = 433
Sample size, n = 26
xbar = 427
Variance, s² = 324 ; Standard deviation, s = √324 = 18
The hypothesis :
H0 : μ = 433
H0 : μ < 433
The test statistic :
(xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))
(427 - 433) / (18 / √26)
-6 / 3.5300904
T = -1.70
The Pvalue :
df = 26-1 = 25 ; α = 0.05
Pvalue = 0.0508
Since Pvalue > α ; WE fail to reject the Null and conclude that there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled
what is sqrt 2x-3 = sqrt 3x-9
Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
sqrt (2x-3) = sqrt (3x-9)
Square each side
(sqrt (2x-3))^2 = (sqrt (3x-9))^2
2x-3 = 3x-9
Subtract 2x from each side
2x-3-2x = 3x-2x-9
-3 = x-9
Add 9 to each side
-3+9 = x-9+9
6 =x
Check solution
sqrt (2*6-3) = sqrt (3*6-9)
sqrt (9) = sqrt (9)
3=3
Solution is valid
sqrt (2x-3) = sqrt (3x-9)
Square each side
(sqrt (2x-3))^2 = (sqrt (3x-9))^2
2x-3 = 3x-9
Subtract 2x from each side
2x-3-2x = 3x-2x-9
-3 = x-9
Add 9 to each side
-3+9 = x-9+9
6 =x
sqrt (2*6-3) = sqrt (3*6-9)
sqrt (9) = sqrt (9)
3=3
Therefore ans x = 6

Find a pair of polar coordinates for the point with rectangular coordinates (5, –5).
Answer:
(5*sqrt(2), 5pi/4)
Step-by-step explanation:
In Polar coordinates, tan(theta)=y/x and r=sqrt(x^2+y^2)
tan(theta)=-5/5=-1. Theta=5pi/4
r=sqrt(5^2+5^2)=5*sqrt(2)
Hence the Polar coordinate is (5*sqrt(2), 5pi/4)
The polar coordinate is [tex](5\sqrt{2},\frac{-\pi }{4} )[/tex].

What is Equation Modelling?
Equation modelling is the process of writing a mathematical verbal expression in the form of a mathematical expression for correct analysis, observations and results of the given problem.
We have the number of kilograms of corn needed to feed 5000 chickens is 30 less than twice the number of kilograms needed to feed 2800 chickens.
Assume that [x] kilograms of corn is needed to feed 2800 chickens.
for 2800 chickens → [x] Kg of corn is needed
for 1 chicken → [x/2800] Kg of corn is needed.
So, we can write -
5000 × [x/2800] = 2x - 30
50x/28 = 2x - 30
50x = 28(2x - 30)
50x = 56x - 28 x 30
50x - 56x = - 840
- 6x = - 840
6x = 840
x = 140
Therefore, 140 kilograms of corn is needed to feed 2800 chickens.

Answer:
The last one
Step-by-step explanation:
What we know:
We have a total of 16 coins
The 16 coins consist of dimes and quarters
The value of the coins is 3.10
The value of a dime is .10
The value of a quarter is .25
Using this information we can create a system of linear equations
First off we know that we have a total of 16 coins which consist of dimes and quarters
The number of Quarters can be represented by q and then number of dimes can be represented by d.
If we have a total of 16 coins then q + d must equal 16
So equation 1 is q + d = 16
Now we need to create a second equation
We know that the total value of the coins is 3.10 and we know that the coins consist of dimes and quarters
As you may know a quarter has a value of .25 cents and a dime has a value of 10 cents
If the total value of the coins is 3.10 the the number of dimes (d) times .10 + the number of Quarters times .25 must equal 3.10
This can also be written as
.25q + .10d = 3.10
So the two equations are
q + d = 16 and .25q + .10d = 3.10
These equations are shown in the last answer choice
Note: b is very similar to d
However the the value of the coins are incorrect in B
In B the value of the dime is represented by 10 which is not correct because the value of a dime is .10 not 10

11. What is the midpoint of CD?
12. a. What are the exact lengths of
segments AB and CD?
b. How do the lengths of AB and CD
compare?
c. Is the following statement true or
false?
AB=CD
9514 1404 393
Answer:
11. (-1.5, 3)
12. √29, identical lengths, true they are congruent
Step-by-step explanation:
11. The midpoint is halfway between the end points. On a graph, you can count the grid squares between the ends of the segment and locate the point that is half that number from either end.
Points C and D differ by 2 in the y-direction, so the midpoint will be 1 unit vertically different from either C or D. That is, it will lie on the line y = 3. The segment CD intersects y=3 at x = -1.5, so the midpoint of CD is (-1.5, 3).
If you like, you can calculate the midpoint as the average of the end points:
midpoint CD = (C +D)/2 = ((-4, 4) +(1, 2))/2 = (-3, 6)/2 = (-1.5, 3)
__
12. The exact length can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. The segment is the hypotenuse of a right triangle whose legs are the differences in x- and y-coordinates.
In the previous problem, we observed that the y-coordinates of C and D differed by 2. The x-coordinates differ by 5. Looking at segment AB, we see the same differences: x-coordinates differ by 5 and y-coordinates differ by 2. Then the lengths of each of these segments is ...
AB = CD = √(2² +5²) = √29
a) The exact lengths of segments AB and CD are √29 units.
b) The lengths of the segments are identical
c) It is TRUE that the segments are congruent.
