Use the t-distribution to find a confidence interval for a mean mu given the relevant sample results. Give the best point estimate for mu, the margin of error, and the confidence interval. Assume the results come from a random sample from a population that is approximately normally distributed. A 95% confidence interval for mu using the sample results x-bar equals 76.4, s = 8.6, and n = 42.

Point estimate = ?
Margin of error = ?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Point estimate = 76.4

Margin of Error = 2.680

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that distribution is approximately normal;

The point estimate = sample mean, xbar = 76.4

The margin of error = Zcritical * s/√n

Tcritical at 95%, df = 42 - 1 = 41

Tcritical(0.05, 41) = 2.0195

Margin of Error = 2.0195 * (8.6/√42)

Margin of Error = 2.0195 * 1.327

Margin of Error = 2.67989

Margin of Error = 2.680

Round each of the following numbers to four significant figures and express the result in standard exponential notation: (a) 102.53070, (b) 656.980, (c) 0.008543210, (d) 0.000257870, (e) -0.0357202

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Rounding each number to 4 significant figures and expressing in standard notation :

(a) 102.53070,

Since the number starts with a non-zero, the 4 digits are counted from the left ;

102.53070 = 102.5 (4 significant figures) = 1.025 * 10^2

(b) 656.980,

Since the number starts with a non-zero, the 4 digits are counted from the left ; the value after the 4th significant value is greater than 5, it is rounded to 1 and added to the significant figure.

656.980 = 657.0 (4 significant figures) = 6.57 * 10^2

(c) 0.008543210,

Since number starts at 0 ; the first significant figure is the first non - zero digit ;

0.008543210 = 0.008543 (4 significant figures) = 8.543 * 10^-3

(d) 0.000257870,

Since number starts at 0 ; the first significant figure is the first non - zero digit ;

0.000257870 = 0.0002579 (4 significant figures) = 2.579 * 10^-4

(e) -0.0357202,

Since number starts at 0 ; the first significant figure is the first non - zero digit ;

-0.0357202 = - 0.03572 (4 significant figures) = - 3.572* 10^-2

The administration conducted a survey to determine the proportion of students who ride a bike to campus. Of the 123 students surveyed 5 ride a bike to campus. Which of the following is a reason the administration should not calculate a confidence interval to estimate the proportion of all students who ride a bike to campus. Which of the following is a reason the administration should not calculate a confidence interval to estimate the proportion of all students who ride a bike to campus? Check all that apply.

a. The sample needs to be random but we don’t know if it is.
b. The actual count of bike riders is too small.
c. The actual count of those who do not ride a bike to campus is too small.
d. n*^p is not greater than 10.
e. n*(1−^p)is not greater than 10.

Answers

Answer:

b. The actual count of bike riders is too small.

d. n*p is not greater than 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval for a proportion:

To be possible to build a confidence interval for a proportion, the sample needs to have at least 10 successes, that is, [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and at least 10 failures, that is, [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex]

Of the 123 students surveyed 5 ride a bike to campus.

Less than 10 successes, that is:

The actual count of bike riders is too small, or [tex]np < 10[/tex], and thus, options b and d are correct.

Answers

Answer:

See answers below

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following functions:

r(x) = x - 6

s(x) = 2x²

r(s(x)) = r(2x²)

Replacing x with 2x² in r(x) will give;

r(2x²) = 2x² - 6

r(s(x)) = 2x² - 6

(r-s)(x) = r(x) - s(x)

(r-s)(x) = x - 6 - 2x²

Rearrange

(r-s)(x) = - 2x²+x-6

(r+s)(x) = r(x) + s(x)

(r-s)(x) = x - 6 + 2x²

Rearrange

(r-s)(x) = 2x²+x-6

Lost-time accidents occur in a company at a mean rate of 0.8 per day. What is the probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2

Answers

Answer:

0.01375 = 1.375% probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the mean during the interval, which means that the Poisson distribution is used.

Poisson distribution:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.

Lost-time accidents occur in a company at a mean rate of 0.8 per day.

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.8n[/tex], in which n is the number of days.

10 days:

This means that [tex]n = 10, \mu = 0.8(10) = 8[/tex]

What is the probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2?

This is:

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.00034[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.00268[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-8}*8^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.01073[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.00034 + 0.00268 + 0.01073 = 0.01375[/tex]

0.01375 = 1.375% probability that the number of lost-time accidents occurring over a period of 10 days will be no more than 2.

a triangle has sides of 6 m 8 m and 11 m is it a right-angled triangle?​

No

Step-by-step explanation:

If we use the Pythagorean theorem, we can find if it is a right triangle. To do that, set up an equation.

[tex]6^{2}+8^{2}=c^2[/tex]

If the triangle is a right triangle, c would equal 11

Solve.

[tex]36+64=100[/tex]

Then find the square root of 100.

The square root of 100 is 10, not 11.

So this is not a right triangle.

he following chart reports the number of cell phones sold at a big-box retail store for the last 26 days. a. What are the maximum and the minimum numbers of cell phones sold in a day? b. Using the median, what is the typical number of cell phones sold?

Answers

Answer:

Maximum = 19

Minimum = 4

Median = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum number of phone sold per day is the value to the right of the horizontal axis as the values are arranged in ascending order ; Hence, the maximum number of phones sold per day is 19

Also, the minimum number of phones sold per day is the value to the left of the plot, Hence, minimum number of phones sold per day is 14.

The Median value : 4, 9, 14, 19

The median = 1/2(n+1)th term

1/2(5)th term = 2.5 th term

Median (9 + 14) /2 = 13 /2 = 11.5 = 12 phones

A scientist has acid solutions with concentrations of 4% and 15%. He wants to mix some of each solution to get 44 milliliters of solution with a 12% concentration. How many milliliters of each solution does he need to mix together?​

Answers

Let x and y be the amounts (in mL) of the 4% and 15% solutions, respectively, that the scientist needs to use.

He wants to end up with a 44 mL solution, so

x + y = 44 mL

Each milliliter of 4% solution contains 0.04 mL of acid, while each mL of 15% contains 0.15 mL of acid. The resulting solution should have a concentration of 12%, so that each mL of it contains 0.12 mL of acid. Then the solution will contain

0.04x + 0.15y = 0.12 × (44 mL) = 5.28 mL

of acid.

Solve for x and y. In the first equation, we have y = 44 mL - x, and substituting into the second equation gives

0.04x + 0.15 (44 mL - x) = 5.28 mL

0.04x + 6.6 mL - 0.15x = 5.28 mL

1.32 mL = 0.19x

x ≈ 6.95 mL

==>   y ≈ 37.05 mL

Answers

Answer:

30 clocks

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation:

Variable x = number of clocks

1200 + 20x = 60x

Isolate variable x:

1200 = 60x - 20x

1200 = 40x

Divide both sides by 40:

30 = x

Check your work:

1200 + 20(30) = 60(30)

1200 + 600 = 1800

1800 = 1800
