A confidence interval tells us how many percents we are confident about the range of a parameter. In this problem, <span>a 95% confidence interval for the mean number of hours spent relaxing or pursuing activities they enjoy was (1.38, 1.92). That means we're 95% confident that the Americans spend from 1.38 hours to 1.92 hours per day on average relaxing or pursuing activities they enjoy. In other words, 95% of the samples of the same size would have a mean number of hours relaxing or pursuing activities they enjoy between 1.38 to 1.92.</span>

Find an equation of the line containing the given pair of points (5,2) and (-3,5)
anzhelika [568]
(5,2)(-3,5)
slope = (5 - 2) / (-3 - 5) = -3/8

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -3/8
use either of ur points...(5,2)...x = 5 and y = 2
now we sub and find b, the y int
2 = -3/8(5) + b
2 = - 15/8 + b
2 + 15/8 = b
16/8 + 15/8 = b
31/8 = b

so ur equation is : y = -3/8x + 31/8....or 3x + 8y = 31

A car travels 2 1/3 miles in 3 1/2 minutes at a constant speed. Write an equation to represent the car travels in miles and minu
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

d = 0.666t , where d is in miles and t is in minutes.

d = 39.94h, where d is in miles and h is in hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

A car travels 2\frac{1}{3} = 2.33 miles in 3\frac{1}{2} = 3.5 minutes at a constant speed.

Let the relation between the distance (d) traveled by car in miles after traveling t minutes is d = kt ......... (1)

Now, putting d = 2.33 miles and t = 3.5 minutes in the above equation we get,

2.33 = 3.5k

⇒ k = 0.666 (Approx.)

So, the equation (1) becomes d = 0.666t. (Answer)

Let us assume that the relation between the distance (D) traveled by car in miles after traveling h hours is d = Kh ............ (2)

Now, putting D = 2.33 miles and T = 3.5/60 = 0.058 hours in the above equation, we get

2.33 = 0.058K

⇒ K = 39.94

So, the equation (2) we get, d = 39.94h (Answer)

Julli [10]

Answer:

0.071,1.928

Step-by-step explanation:

                                                Downtown Store   North Mall Store

Sample size   n                             25                        20

Sample mean \bar{x}                         $9                        $8

Sample standard deviation  s       $2                        $1

n_1=25\\n_2=20

\bar{x_1}=9\\ \bar{x_2}=8

s_1=2\\s_2=1

x_1-x_2=9-8=1

Standard error of difference of means = \sqrt{\frac{s_1^2}{n_1}+\frac{s_2^2}{n_2}}

Standard error of difference of means = \sqrt{\frac{2^2}{25}+\frac{1^2}{20}}

Standard error of difference of means = 0.458

Degree of freedom = \frac{\sqrt{(\frac{s_1^2}{n_1}+\frac{s_2^2}{n_2}})^2}{\frac{(\frac{s_1^2}{n_1})^2}{n_1-1}+\frac{(\frac{s_2^2}{n_2})^2}{n_2-1}}

Degree of freedom = \frac{\sqrt{(\frac{2^2}{25}+\frac{1^2}{20}})^2}{\frac{(\frac{2^2}{25})^2}{25-1}+\frac{(\frac{1^2}{20})^2}{20-1}}

Degree of freedom =36

So, z value at 95% confidence interval and 36 degree of freedom = 2.0280

Confidence interval = (x_1-x_2)-z \times SE(x_1-x_2),(x_1-x_2)+z \times SE(x_1-x_2)

Confidence interval = 1-(2.0280)\times 0.458,1+(2.0280)\times 0.458

Confidence interval = 0.071,1.928

Hence Option A is true

Confidence interval is  0.071,1.928
