Answer:

The 99 % confidence interval on the basis of mean is ( 21.7393  ;   22.0257)

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = Sum of observations / Number of observations

Mean = 21.88 +21.76 +22.14 +21.63+ 21.81 +22.12+ 21.97+ 21.57+ 21.75+ 21.96 +22.20 +21.80/ 12

Mean =x`= 262.59/12=  21.8825

Standard Deviation = s= ∑x²/n - ( ∑x/n)²

∑x²/n= 478.7344 +473.4976 + 490.1796+467.8569+ 475.6761 + 489.2944+ 482.6809+ 465.2649+ 473.0625+ 482.2416 +492.84 + 475.24/ 12

∑x²/n= 5746.5689/12= 478.8807 = 478.881

Standard Deviation = s= ∑x²/n - ( ∑x/n)²

s= 478.881- (21.8825)²= 478.881-478.843= 0.037

The confidence limit 99% for the mean will be determined by

x` ± α(100-1) √s/n

Putting the values in the above equation

= 21.8825 ± 2.58 √0.037/12

Solving the square root

= 21.8825 ± 2.58 (0.05549)

Multiplying the square root with 2.58

=21.8825 ± 0.1432

Adding and subtracting would give

21.7393  ;   22.0257,

Hence the 99 % confidence interval on the basis of mean is ( 21.7393  ;   22.0257)

i think of a number. if i divide the sum of 6 and the number by 3, the result is 4 more than one quarter of the number. find the
slega [8]

Answer:

-12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be A

Given if you divide the sum of six and the number A by 3 , the result is 4 more than 1/4 of A

That’s

6+A/3 = 4+1/4 of A

6+A/3 = 4+1/4 x A

6+A/3 = 4+A/4

Cross multiply

4(6 + A) = 3(4 + A)

Distribute

4 x 6 + 4 x A = 3 x 4 + 3 x A

24 + 4A = 12 + 3A

Subtract 24 from both sides to eliminate 24 on the left side

24 - 24 + 4A = 12 - 24 + 3A

4A = -12 + 3A

Subtract 3A from both sides so the unknown can be on one side

4A - 3A = -12 + 3A - 3A

A = -12

Check

6+(-12)/3 = 4 +(-12)/4

6 -12/3 = 4 -12/4

-6/3 = -8/4

-2 = -2
