$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{4})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{-5}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-6}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{-6-4}{-5-(-2)}\implies \cfrac{-10}{-5+2}\implies \cfrac{-10}{-3}\implies \cfrac{10}{3}$

You are curious about the average number of yards Matthew Stafford throws for each game for the Detroit Lions. You randomly sele

Damm [24]

Answer:

The margin of error for this estimate is of 14.79 yards per game.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

T interval

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 = 20 - 1 = 19

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 19 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of $1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975$ . So we have T = 2.093
