Answer:

0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the equation

y=mx

where y is the cost, m is constant and x is variable representing packages

8.85=15x

5.1=10x

Subtracting equation 2 from 1 then

5x=3.75

x=3.75/5=0.75

x=0.75

The constant of proportionality is 0.75

A student researcher compares the heights of men and women from the student body of a certain college in order to estimate the d
maria [59]

Answer:

(0.6613, 8.3387)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the heights of men be the first population and the heights of women be the second population. Then

We have n_{1} = 15, \bar{x}_{1} = 69.4, s_{1} = 3.09 and

n_{2} = 7, \bar{x}_{2} = 64.9, s_{2} = 2.58. The pooled

estimate is given by  

s_{p}^{2} = \frac{(n_{1}-1)s_{1}^{2}+(n_{2}-1)s_{2}^{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}-2} = \frac{(15-1)(3.09)^{2}+(7-1)(2.58)^{2}}{15+7-2} = 8.68

The 99% confidence interval for the true mean difference between the mean height of the men and the mean height of the women is given by (if the samples are independent)

(\bar{x}_{1}-\bar{x}_{2})\pm t_{0.01/2}s_{p}\sqrt{\frac{1}{15}+\frac{1}{7}}, i.e.,

(69.4-64.9)\pm t_{0.005}2.946\sqrt{\frac{1}{15}+\frac{1}{7}}

where t_{0.005} is the 0.5th quantile of the t distribution with (15+7-2) = 20 degrees of freedom. So  

4.5\pm(-2.845)(2.946)(0.458), i.e.,
