Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We would set up the hypothesis test. This is a test of a single population mean since we are dealing with mean

For the null hypothesis,

µ = 82

For the alternative hypothesis,

µ ≠ 82

This is a 2 tailed test

Since the sample mean and sample standard deviation is given, the t test would be used to determine the test statistic. The formula is

t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)

Where

x = sample mean = 87

µ = population mean = 82

s = samples standard deviation = 10

n = 25

t = (87 - 82)/(10/√25) = 2.5

α = 1 - Confidence level

α = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05

Since α = 0.05, the critical value is determined from the t distribution table.

For the left, α/2 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

For the right of 0.025 = 1 - 0.025 = 0.975

To determine the t score from the t distribution table, we would find the degree of freedom, df and look for the corresponding α value.

df = n - 1 = 25 - 1 = 24

t score = critical value = ±2.064

In order to reject the null hypothesis, the test statistic must be smaller than - 2.5 or greater than 2.5

Since - 2.064 > - 2.5 and 2.064 < 2.5, we would fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Confidence interval is written in the form,

(Sample mean - margin of error, sample mean + margin of error)

Margin of error = z × s/√n

Where

s = sample standard deviation

z = t score

Margin of error = 2.064 × 10/√25

= 4.13

Confidence interval = 87 ± 4.13

the lower limit of this confidence interval is

87 - 4.13 = 82.87

the upper limit of this confidence interval is

87 + 4.13 = 91.13

1. (08.01 MC)<br> The graph shows two lines. A and B
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

Part A:

A pair of linear equations can only have one solution or infinitely many solutions. In this case, there would only be one solution as they intersection at only one point.

Part B:

The solution would be (3, 4) because it is the point of intersection between the two linear lines.
