In a random sample of 13 residents of the state of Washington, the mean waste recycled per person per day was 1.6 pounds with a

standard deviation of 0.43 pounds. Determine the 98% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Washington. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 2 : Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answer:

<em>The 98% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Washington</em>

<em>(1.2878 ,1.9122)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i)</em></u>:-

Given random sample size 'n' = 13

<em>The mean waste recycled per person per day </em>

<em>                                                                x⁻ =  1.6 pounds </em>

<em>The standard deviation of the sample 's' = 0.43 pounds</em>

<em>Degrees of freedom </em>

<em>ν = n-1 = 13 -1 =12</em>

<em>t₀.₀₁ = 2.618</em>

<u><em>step(ii)</em></u><em>:-</em>

<em>The 98% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Washington</em>

<em></em>(x^{-} - t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} }  , x^{-} - t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } )<em></em>

<em></em>(1.6 - 2.618 \frac{0.43}{\sqrt{13} }  , 1.6 - 2.618 \frac{0.43}{\sqrt{13} } )<em></em>

( 1.6 - 0.3122 , 1.6 +0.3122)

<em>(1.2878 ,1.9122)</em>

<u><em>Final answer</em></u><em>:-</em>

<em>The 98% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Washington</em>

<em>(1.2878 ,1.9122)</em>

Help me please for this question im heavily confused.

Answer:

a)

Let x = number of candy bars sold

Let y = amount of money earned

b)

y = 0.75x

c)

He should work at the car wash.

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Let x = number of candy bars sold

Let y = amount of money earned

b)

$42.75/57 = $0.75

Each candy bar costs $0.75

We can confirm that by dividing $38.25/51 = $0.75

1 candy bar sells for $0.75

2 candy bars sell for $0.75 * 2

x candy bars sell for 0.75 * x, or simply 0.75x

The equation is y = 0.75x

c)

y = 0.75x

y = 0.75 * 36

y = 27

Larry raised $27 by selling candy bars last year. This year, he can earn more than that by working at the car wash.

He should work at the car wash.

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

LCM of 21,24 and 26 is 2184

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find LCM of 21,24 and 26

For finding LCM divide the given numbers by a prime number if two of the numbers are divisible by that prime number

 2  |    21,24,26

 2  |    21,12,13

 2  |   21,6,13

 3  |    21,3,13

 7  |   7,1,13

13  |   1,1,13

      |   1,1,1

So, LCM of 21,24 and 26 is: 2 x 2 x 2  x 3 x 7 x 13 = 2184
