According to Chef Robert Sevaly, pressure cookers "really are a timesaver, cutting your cooking time by three-fourths." If a per

Answer:

1. Cooking time saved in a month = 42.86 * 3/4 = 32 hours

2. Cooking time saved in a year = 520 * 3/4 = 390 hours

3. Since the household saves 390 hours in a year using pressure cooker, it will then save 390 * $2 = $780

Step-by-step explanation:

Hours spent cooking on average per week = 10 hours

Hours spend cooking on average per day = 1.43 (10/7), assuming 7 days in a week

Total hours spent on average per month = 42.86 (30 * 10/7), assuming 30 days in a month

Total hours spent on average per year = 520 (52 * 10) hours, assuming 52 weeks in a year.

Savings in time = 3/4

Therefore, the cooking time saved in a month = 42.86 * 3/4 = 32 hours

And the cooking time saved in a year = 520 * 3/4 = 390 hours

If on the average, a household spends $20 in natural gas for cooking per month, the money it would save by using a pressure cooker in a year will be equal to:

Cost of each hour of cooking without pressure cooker = $20/10 = $2 per hour

Since the household saves 390 hours in a year using pressure cooker, it will then save

= Hours saved multiplied by hourly cost of gas

= 390 * $2

= $780

A sample of students from an introductory psychology class were polled regarding the number of hours they spent studying for the

Anni [7]

Answer:

$8.68,13.16$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hint- First we have to calculate the mean and standard deviation of the sample and then applying formula for confidence interval we can get the values.

Mean of the sample is,

$\mu=\dfrac{\sum _{i=1}^{24}a_i}{24}=\dfrac{262}{24}=10.92$

Standard deviation of the sample is,

$\sigma =\sqrt{\dfrac{\sum _{i=1}^{24}\left(x_i-10.92\right)^2}{24-1}}=5.6$

The confidence interval will be,

$=\mu \pm Z\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

Here,

Z for 95% confidence interval is 1.96, and n is sample size which is 24.

Putting the values,

$=10.92 \pm 1.96\cdot \dfrac{5.6}{\sqrt{24}}$

$=10.92 \pm 2.24$

$=8.68,13.16$

Confidence interval is used to express the degree of uncertainty associated with a sample.

95% confidence interval means that if we used the same sampling method to select different samples and calculate an interval, we would expect the true population parameter to fall within the interval for 95% of the time.
