A random sample of 28 statistics tutorials was selected from the past 5 years and the percentage of students absent from each on

e recorded. The results are given below. Assume the percentages of students' absences are approximately normally distributed. Use Excel to estimate the mean percentage of absences per tutorial over the past 5 years with 90% confidence. Round your answers to two decimal places and use increasing order.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

X: number of absences per tutorial per student over the past 5 years(percentage)

X≈N(μ;σ²)

You have to construct a 90% to estimate the population mean of the percentage of absences per tutorial of the students over the past 5 years.

The formula for the CI is:

X[bar] ± Z_{1-\alpha /2} * \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} }

⇒ The population standard deviation is unknown and since the distribution is approximate, I'll use the estimation of the standard deviation in place of the population parameter.

Number of Absences 13.9 16.4 12.3 13.2 8.4 4.4 10.3 8.8 4.8 10.9 15.9 9.7 4.5 11.5 5.7 10.8 9.7 8.2 10.3 12.2 10.6 16.2 15.2 1.7 11.7 11.9 10.0 12.4

X[bar]= 10.41

S= 3.71

Z_{1-\alpha /2}= Z_{0.95}= 1.645

[10.41±1.645*(\frac{3.71}{\sqrt{28} } )]

[9.26; 11.56]

Using a confidence level of 90% you'd expect that the interval [9.26; 11.56]% contains the value of the population mean of the percentage of absences per tutorial of the students over the past 5 years.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

a. 0.0000009 m

b. 6,130, 000, 000

c. 100,000 light years

d. 0.00001 mm

e. 0.0000010 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to come from the standard form to the decimal form

In doing this, we consider the power of 10 attached

If negative, we count leftwards, if positive, we count right-wards

The number of times we count is the power of 10 attached. The count means we are moving the decimal point

For numbers with out visible decimal point, it is at the back of the most right-ward number

Thus, we have these as;

a. 9 * 10^-7

= 0.0000009 m

b. 6.130 * 10^9

= 6,130, 000, 000

c. 1 * 10^5

= 100,000 light years

d. 1 * 10^-5 mm

= 0.00001 mm

e. 10^-7

= 0.0000010 kg

The formula for volume is Length x Width x Height.

So when you apply this formula to these questions the answers should be:

#7. 3x4x2 = 24

#8. 2x4x1 = 8

#9. 3x4x2 = 24

#10. 4x3x1 = 12

I hope this helps!
