The owner of a golf course wants to determine if his golf course is more difficult than the one his friend owns. He has 8 golfers play a round of 18 holes on his golf course and records their scores. Later that week, he has the same 8 golfers play a round of golf on his friend's course and records their scores again. The average difference in the scores (treated as the scores on his course - the scores on his friend's course) is 9.582 and the standard deviation of the differences is 15.9274. Calculate a 90% confidence interval to estimate the average difference in scores between the two courses.1) (13.73,-0.65).2) (-10.359,-4.021).3) (-9.259,-5.121).4) (-13.745,-0.635).5) (13.745, -0.635).

Answers

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval to estimate the average difference in scores between the two courses is (-1.088, 20.252).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the differences, 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 = 8 - 1 = 7

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 7 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex]. So we have T = 1.8946

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.8946\frac{15.9274}{\sqrt{8}} = 10.67[/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 9.582 - 10.67 = -1.088

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 9.582 + 10.67 = 20.252

The 90% confidence interval to estimate the average difference in scores between the two courses is (-1.088, 20.252).

Answers

Answer:

CI  95 %  =  (  28.92  ;  41.08 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample Information:

sample size    n  =  30

sample mean  =  35 %

sample standard deviation   s = 17

To construct a CI  95 %

significance level is    α  = 5 %   α = 0.05      α/2  =  0.025

z critical for α/2 from z- table is :   z (c) = 1.96

CI  95 %  =  (  x  ±  z(c) * s/√n )

CI  95 %  =  (  35 ± 1.96 * 17/√30 )

CI  95 %  =  (  35 ±  6.08 )

CI  95 %  =  (  28.92  ;  41.08 )

What is the gradient of the graph shown? Give your answer in simplest form

Answers

Answer:

gradient = 2

line: y = 2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope from the slope intercept formula

y = mx + b

b is the y intercept

b = -4 and the point is (0,-4)

So far the equation looks like this.

y = mx - 4

Use the other intercept (x intercept) to find m

x = 2

y = 0

0 = m*2 - 4                Add 4 to both sides

4 = 2m                      Divide by 2

4/2 = m

m = 2

So the gradient or slope is 2

If the tangent line to y = f(x) at (6, 3) passes through the point (0, 2), find f(6) and f '(6). f(6) = Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. f '(6) = Correct: Your answer is correct.

Answers

Answer:

f(6) = 3

f'(6) = 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that for a function f(x), we define f'(x) as the slope of the tangent line to the point (x, f(x))

We know that:

y = f(x) passes through the point (6, 3)

Then we already know that:

f(6) = 3.

Now we also know that the tangent at this point, also passes through (0, 2)

Remember that a line can be written as:

y = a*x + b

Where in this case, a = f'(6)

so we just want to find the slope of this line.

Remember that for a line that passes through (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) the slope is given by:

a = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

And we know that the tangent line passes through the points (0, 2) and (6, 3)

Then the slope is:

a = (3 - 2)/(6 - 0)  = 1/6

Then we have:

a =  f'(6)  =1/6

The weights for newborn babies is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 5.4 pounds and a standard deviation of 1.8 pounds. Consider a group of 1500 newborn babies: 1. How many would you expect to weigh between 3 and 6 pounds

Answers

You would expect 807 babies  to weigh between 3 and 6 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Mean,[tex]\mu=5.4[/tex]pounds

In a random sample of 26 residents of the state of Montana, the mean waste recycled per person per day was 2.8 pounds with a standard deviation of 0.23 pounds. Determine the 80% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Montana. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 2: Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is T = 1.316.

The 80% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Montana is between 2.741 pounds and 2.859 pounds.

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 = 26 - 1 = 25

80% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 25 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.8}{2} = 0.9[/tex]. So we have T = 1.316

The critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is T = 1.316.

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.316\frac{0.23}{\sqrt{26}} = 0.059[/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 2.8 - 0.059 = 2.741 pounds

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 2.8 + 0.059 = 2.859 pounds.

The 80% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Montana is between 2.741 pounds and 2.859 pounds.

What is a linear function?

A straight line on the coordinate plane is represented by a linear function.

A linear function always has the same and constant slope.

The formula for a linear function is f(x) = ax + b, where a and b are real values.

A line is given as y = mx + c

Here m is the slope,

Put m = 2/3 and  (-9, 4)

4 = (2/3)(-9) + c

c = 10

Thus equation will be y = (2/3)x + 10.

Hence "Y = (2/3)x + 10 is the slope-intercept of the line passing through the point (-9, 4), which has a slope of 2/3".

Answers

Answer:

0.260

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

Given that, In a computer instant messaging​ survey, respondents were asked to choose the most fun way to​ flirt.

And, it found that ​P(D)=0.740​, where D is directly in person.

If someone is randomly​ selected, PD ​represents Upper P left parenthesis & Upper D represents overbar right parenthesis ​.

⇒P(D) is the probability flirting of directly in person.

⇒P( D ) represents the probability of flirting other than in person.  

P(D)=0.740    &   P( D )=1 - P(D)

P( D ) = 1 - 0.740.

P( D ) = 0.260

Hence the value of Upper P left parenthesis Upper D overbar right parenthesis is 0.260.

Sue can shovel snow from her driveway in 65 minutes. Tom can do the same job in 45 minutes How long would a
take Sue and Tom to shovel the driveway if they worked together?

Answers

Answer:

26.59 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say the time needed to do the driveway combined is x. Sue does y parts of the driveway, and Tom does z parts of the driveway. Combined, y + z = 100% = 1, as they finish the whole driveway.

Next, Tom will take 45 * z minutes to do his part of the driveway. For example, if he did 50% = 0.5 of the driveway, he would take 45 * 0.5 = 22.5 minutes to do it. Similarly, Sue will take 65 *y minutes to do her part of the driveway. Since they will finish at the same time, we can say

45 * z = 65 * y

y + z = 1

Therefore, if we subtract y from both sides of the second equation, we have

z = 1-y

We can then plug 1-y in for z in the first equation to get

45 * (1-y) = 65 * y

45 - 45*y = 65*y

add both sides by 45 * y to separate the y values and their coefficients

45 = 110 * y

divide both sides by 110 to find y

y = 45/110 = 0.409

Use 1-y=z to get z = 1-0.409 = 0.59

Therefore, 45*z = 26.59 = 65*y

The ages of subscribers to a certain newspaper are normally distributed with mean 35 years and standard deviation 5. What is the probability that the age of a random subscriber is more than 40 years?

Answers

Answer:

0.1587

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying,

P(μ>40) = P(μ-(x-μ)/σ)............. Equation 1

Where P(μ>40) =  probability of the age of the random subscriber more than 40 years   μ = mean, σ = standard deviation, x = random subscriber

From the question,

Given: μ = 35 years, σ = 5 years, x = 40 years.

Therefore,

P(μ>40) = P(35-(40-35)/5) = P(35-(5/5)

P(μ>40) = 1-φ(1)

From the norminal probabilty table,

P(μ>40) = 1-0.8413

P(μ>40) = 0.1587
