A random sample of 9 wheels of cheese yielded the following weights in pounds has a sample mean of 20.90 and a sample variance o

Ronch [10]

Answer:

$2.002 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 11.365$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

s represent the sample standard deviation

$s^2$ represent the sample variance

n=9 the sample size

Confidence=90% or 0.90

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population mean or variance lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

The Chi Square distribution is the distribution of the sum of squared standard normal deviates .

2) Calculating the confidence interval

The confidence interval for the population variance is given by the following formula:

$\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{\alpha/2}} \leq \sigma \frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{1-\alpha/2}}$

On this case we need to find the sample standard deviation with the following formula:

$s=sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^9 (x_i -\bar x)^2}{n-1}}
The sample variance given was [tex]s^2=3.45$

The next step would be calculate the critical values. First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

$df=n-1=9-1=8$

Since the Confidence is 0.90 or 90%, the value of $\alpha=0.1$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical values.

The excel commands would be: "=CHISQ.INV(0.05,8)" "=CHISQ.INV(0.95,8)". so for this case the critical values are:

$\chi^2_{\alpha/2}=15.507$

$\chi^2_{1- \alpha/2}=2.732$

And replacing into the formula for the interval we got:

$\frac{(9)(3.45)}{15.507} \leq \sigma \frac{(9)(3.45)}{2.732}$

$2.002 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 11.365$

The solution set of a linear system whose augmented matrix is [a b c d] is the same as the solution set of Ax = d, where A = [a

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

First statement

[a b c | d][x]

[a b c]x=d

ax+bx+cx=d

Second statement

Ax=d

Given that A = [a b c]

[a b c]x=d

ax+bx+cx=d

Then, they are going to have the same solutions

Have you done any factoring with variables? Which property (Commutative, Distributive, or Associative) do you think is most invo

vazorg [7]

Idk how im supposed to answer this or whatevs bu
yes i have done factoring with variables.
distrubutive is the most involved in factoring method as i can tell.
i dont think ive studied this before or i mightve forgoten but im sure a polynomial can be factored into another one.
and yea. hope this helped in sum way
