Let the following sample of 8 observations be drawn from a normal population with unknown mean and standard deviation: 22, 18, 1

4, 25, 17, 28, 15, 21. Use Table 2.a. Calculate the sample mean and the sample standard deviation. (Round intermediate calculations to 4 decimal places, "sample mean" to 3 decimal places and "sample standard deviation" to 2 decimal places.) Sample mean Sample standard deviation b. Construct the 80% confidence interval for the population mean. (Round "t" value to 3 decimal places, and final answers to 2 decimal places.) Confidence interval to c. Construct the 90% confidence interval for the population mean. (Round "t" value to 3 decimal places, and final answers to 2 decimal places.) Confidence interval to d. What happens to the margin of error as the confidence level increases from 80% to 90%?As the confidence level increases, the interval becomes narrower.As the confidence level increases, the interval becomes wider.

Answer:

a:  Sample mean: 20, Sample standard deviation: 1.732

b:  19.13 <µ < 20.87

c:  18.84< µ < 21.16

d:  as the confidence level increases, the interval becomes wider

Step-by-step explanation:

a:  Sample mean is found by adding up all the individual values of the sample, then dividing by the total number of values in the sample.  

Sample standard deviation is the square root of the variance

See the first attached photo for the calculations of these values.

We need to create a 80% confidence interval for the population.  Since n < 30, we will use a t-value with degree of freedom of 7 (the degree of freedom is always one less than the sample size.  

Look for the column on the t-distribution chart that has "area in two tails" of 0.20 (80%), and row 7 (degree of freedom)

The t-value is 1.415

See the second attached photo for the construction of the confidence interval

We need to create a 90% confidence interval for the population.  Since n < 30, we will use a t-value with degree of freedom of 7 (the degree of freedom is always one less than the sample size.  

Look for the column on the t-distribution chart that has "area in two tails" of 0.10 (90%), and row 7 (degree of freedom)

The t-value is 1.895

See the third attached photo for the construction of the confidence interval

How to solve number 4
s2008m [1.1K]
Find the first semicircle area
Area semicircle can be determined by dividing the full area of circle by 2.
The first semicircle radius is 5 cm
semicircle area = 1/2 circle area
semicircle area = 1/2 × π × r²
semicircle area = 1/2 × 3.14 × 5²
semicircle area = 1/2 × 3.14 × 25
semicircle area = 39.25 cm²

Find the second semicircle area
Because the dimension of the second semicircle is congruent to the first semicircle, they have similar area measurement, 39.25 cm².

Find the quarter circle area
The area of quarter circle can be determined by dividing the full area of a circle by 4.
q circle = 1/4 × area of circle
q circle = 1/4 × π × r²
q circle = 1/4 × 3.14 × 10²
q circle = 1/4 × 314
q circle = 78.5 cm²

To find the entire area, add the area above together
area = first semicircle + second semicircle + q circle
area = 39.25 + 39.25 + 78.5
area = 157

The area of shaded region is 157 cm²
