Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the missing side be 'x'.

Using Pythagorean Theorem, we can find the missing side.

x² + 8² = (2√41)²
x² + 64 = 4(41)
x² + 64 = 164
x² = 100
x = <u>10</u>

For parts a and bâ, use technology to estimate the following. âa) The critical value of t for a 90â% confidence interval with df

rjkz [21]

Answer:

a) For the 90% confidence interval the value of $\alpha=1-0.9=0.1$ and $\alpha/2=0.05$ , with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the t distribution with df =3. And we can use the folloiwng excel code: "=T.INV(0.05,3)" and we got:

$t_{\alpha/2} =\pm 2.35$

b) For the 99% confidence interval the value of $\alpha=1-0.99=0.01$ and $\alpha/2=0.005$ , with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the t distribution with df =106. And we can use the folloiwng excel code: "=T.INV(0.005,106)" and we got:

$t_{\alpha/2} =\pm 2.62$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The t distribution (Student’s t-distribution) is a "probability distribution that is used to estimate population parameters when the sample size is small (n<30) or when the population variance is unknown".

The shape of the t distribution is determined by its degrees of freedom and when the degrees of freedom increase the t distirbution becomes a normal distribution approximately.

The degrees of freedom represent "the number of independent observations in a set of data. For example if we estimate a mean score from a single sample, the number of independent observations would be equal to the sample size minus one."

Solution to the problem

Part a

For the 90% confidence interval the value of $\alpha=1-0.9=0.1$ and $\alpha/2=0.05$ , with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the t distribution with df =3. And we can use the folloiwng excel code: "=T.INV(0.05,3)" and we got:

$t_{\alpha/2} =\pm 2.35$

Part b

For the 99% confidence interval the value of $\alpha=1-0.99=0.01$ and $\alpha/2=0.005$ , with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the t distribution with df =106. And we can use the folloiwng excel code: "=T.INV(0.005,106)" and we got:

$t_{\alpha/2} =\pm 2.62$
