The number is 90.

<h3>What is the number?</h3>

Percentage can be described as the fraction of an amount that is expressed as a number out of hundred. The sign used to represent percentage is %. Percentages are a measure of frequency.

When the number is decreased, the number becomes smaller. This means that the original number is larger than 81.

The equation that can be used to represent the information in the question is:

(1 - percentage decrease) initial number = 81

(1 - 0.1)x = 81

0.9x = 81

x = 81 / 0.9

x = 90

A study found that a 95% confidence interval for the mean μ of a particular population was computed from a random sample of 1200
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

95% confidence interval for the mean μ is (6,14)

The Population mean μ lies between ( 6, 14 )

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>:-

Given random sample 'n' = 1200

95% confidence interval for the mean μ is determined by

        (x^{-} -Z_{\alpha } \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} +Z_{\alpha } \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } )

Level of significance = 95% 0r 0.05

Z₀.₀₅ = 1.96

   (x^{-} -Z_{\alpha } \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} +Z_{\alpha } \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } ) = 10 ± 4

Mean of the small sample = 10

95% of confidence intervals are

                         ( 10 ±4 )

                  ( 10 -4 , 10+4)

                  ( 6 , 14 )

95% confidence interval for the mean μ lies between ( 6, 14 )
