SOLUTION:

We are to find the rate of inflation in the given question;

The formula to be used is;

Inflation rate =

\frac{\text{CPI}_{present}-CPI_{previous}}{CPI_{previous}_{}}\text{ X 100}\begin{gathered} \frac{221-208}{208}\text{ X }\frac{100}{1} \\  \\ \frac{13}{208}X\frac{100}{1} \\  \\ 6.25\text{ \%} \\ 6.3\text{ \% (nearest tenth of a percentage)} \end{gathered}

CONCLUSION

The inflation rate of CPI that increased from 208 to 221 to the nearest tenth of a percentage is 6.3%.

Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation: No, because a proportional relationship is  a line that goes up at a constant rate, and goes through the origin, an example of a proportional relationship is a straight line starting from the origin ( or what we call the starting point)

In a sample of eight whitefish caught in Yellowknife Bay, the mean arsenic concentration in the liver was 0.32 mg/kg, with a sta
Advocard [28]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the concentration in whitefish found in Yellowknife Bay is (0.2698 mg/kg, 0.3702 mg/kg).

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 = 8 - 1 = 7

95% 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 1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975. So we have T = 2.3246

The margin of error is:

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.3646\frac{0.06}{\sqrt{8}} = 0.0502

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 0.32 - 0.0502 = 0.2698 mg/kg

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 0.32 + 0.0502 = 0.3702 mg/kg

The 95% confidence interval for the concentration in whitefish found in Yellowknife Bay is (0.2698 mg/kg, 0.3702 mg/kg).
