We have IQ test scores of 31 seventh-grade girls in a Midwest school district. We have calculated that sample mean is 105.84 and

the standard deviation is 14.27.
Give a 99% confidence interval for the average score in the population. What is the margin of error?

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the average score in the population is between 99.24 and 112.44.

The margin of error is 6.60.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.99}{2} = 0.005

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.005 = 0.995, so z = 2.575

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 2.575*\frac{14.27}{\sqrt{31}} = 6.60

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So it is 105.84 - 6.60 = 99.24

The upper end of the interval is the mean added to M. So it is 105.84 + 6.60 = 112.44

The 99% confidence interval for the average score in the population is between 99.24 and 112.44.

<h3>What is a polynomial?</h3>

Mathematical expressions called polynomials have one variable and many exponents.

The algebraic expression must have all of its exponents be non-negative integers in order for it to be a polynomial. As a general rule, an algebraic expression isn't a polynomial if it contains a radical.

No part of an algebraic expression should be - Variables' square roots. variable powers that are fractional. variable powers that are negative. variables in any fraction's denominator.

Exponents, variables, and constants make up a polynomial. The amount of terms a polynomial has determines its name.

Polynomials come in various varieties. Monomial, binomial, and trinomial, respectively.

The idea of the graph of a polynomial equation was first introduced by René Descartes in La géometrie, published in 1637.

A right cylindrical container perfectly holds 5 tennis balls placed one above the other. The radius of each ball is 3.35 centime
mash [69]

Answer: 394 cm3


Step-by-step explanation:

volume of cylinder - volume of 5 balls=extra volume

voc=πr2h=1181.09

pi=22/7

r=3.35

h= 5 x diameter of ball=33.5 (diameter = 2r)


vo5b=5(4/3πr3)=787.4

r=3.35

ev=voc-vo5b

=393.69

Joe will build a rectangular pen for his dog. A wall will form one side of the pen. Joe has 40 ft of fencing to form the other t
ra1l [238]
The length would be 16 ft on both sides.. The width would be 7 ft, I think since a wall is forming one side, and he 40 ft, so in order to make the other three side the maximum would be 39 ft, so I think you get it now. This is just my guess... I'm only in sixth grade :/
