The water works commission needs to know the mean household usage of water by the residents of a small town in gallons per day.

Assume that the population standard deviation is 2.4 gallons. The mean water usage per family was found to be 19.5 gallons per day for a sample of 3034 families. Construct the 98% confidence interval for the mean usage of water. Round your answers to one decimal place.

The confidence interval for the mean usage of water is (18.7,20.5).

Given population standard deviation of 2.4, mean of 19.5 gallons per day and confidence interval of 98%.

We have to find the confidence interval for the mean usage of water.

To find out the confidence interval we have to first find margin of error.

μ=19.5

σ=2.4

α=0.98

α/2=0.49

We have to find the z value for the p value 0.49 which is z=2.33

Margin of error=z*μ/\sqrt{n}

=2.33*19.5/\sqrt{3034}

=0.82

lower level=mean -m

=19.5-0.82

=18.68

after rounding upto 1 decimal

=18.7

upper mean = mean+m

=19.5+0.82

=20.52

Hence the confidence interval for the usage of water is (18.7,20.52).

QUESTION:

The code for a lock consists of 5 digits (0-9). The last number cannot be 0 or 1. How many different codes are possible.

ANSWER:

Since in this particular scenario, the order of the numbers matter, we can use the Permutation Formula:–

  • P(n,r) = n!/(n−r)! where n is the number of numbers in the set and r is the subset.

Since there are 10 digits to choose from, we can assume that n = 10.

Similarly, since there are 5 numbers that need to be chosen out of the ten, we can assume that r = 5.

Now, plug these values into the formula and solve:

= 10!(10−5)!

= 10!5!

= 10⋅9⋅8⋅7⋅6

= 30240.

The Great Pyramid has a height (h) of about 480 ft, a slant height (l) of about 560 ft and a square base of 756 ft. What is the
suter [353]

Answer: 91,445,760 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the base of this pyramid is a square, then you can use the following formula to calculate its volume:

V=\frac{s^2h}{3}

Where "s" is the lenght of any side of the base of the pyramid and "h" is the height of the pyramid.

You know that:

h=480ft\\s=756ft

Then, you can substitute these values into the formula. So, you get that the volume of The Great Pyramid is:

V=\frac{(756ft)^2(480ft)}{3}=91,445,760ft^3
