A sample of students from an introductory psychology class were polled regarding the number of hours they spent studying for the

last exam. All students anonymously submitted the number of hours on a 3 by 5 card. There were 24 individuals in the one section of the course polled. The data was used to make inferences regarding the other students taking the course. There data are below:
4.5 22 7 14.5 9 9 3.5 8 11 7.5 18 20 7.5
9 10.5 15 19 2.5 5 9 8.5 14 20 8

Answer:

8.68,13.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Hint- First we have to calculate the mean and standard deviation of the sample and then applying formula for confidence interval we can get the values.

Mean of the sample is,

\mu=\dfrac{\sum _{i=1}^{24}a_i}{24}=\dfrac{262}{24}=10.92

Standard deviation of the sample is,

\sigma =\sqrt{\dfrac{\sum _{i=1}^{24}\left(x_i-10.92\right)^2}{24-1}}=5.6

The confidence interval will be,

=\mu \pm Z\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Here,

Z for 95% confidence interval is 1.96, and n is sample size which is 24.

Putting the values,

=10.92 \pm 1.96\cdot \dfrac{5.6}{\sqrt{24}}

=10.92 \pm 2.24

=8.68,13.16

Confidence interval is used to express the degree of uncertainty associated with a sample.

95% confidence interval means that if we used the same sampling method to select different samples and calculate an interval, we would expect the true population parameter to fall within the interval for 95% of the time.

If you need part A, draw a person and label them 6 feet tall and a shadow coming off of him that is five feet long and draw a basketball hoop that and label it X feet tall and draw a shadow coming from it that is 8 feet long. To solve, you use proportions 6/5=X/8 solving this you get X=9.6 feet which is the height of the rim. Therefore, the rim does not meet regulation height, since the required height (10 feet) is greater than the actual height (9.6 feet).

Serenity has 2\frac{1}{2} 2 1 ​ cups of dough to make dumplings. If she uses \frac{3}{4} 4 3 ​ cup of dough for each dumpling, h
BARSIC [14]

3 dumplings can be made by Serenity

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

Serenity has 2\frac{1}{2} cups of dough to make dumplings

She uses \frac{3}{4} cup of dough for each dumpling

To find: Number of whole dumplings made

From given information,

\text{Total cups of dough } = 2\frac{1}{2} = \frac{2 \times 2+1}{2} =\frac{5}{2}

\text{Cups of dough for 1 dumpling } = \frac{3}{4}

To find the number of whole dumplings made, we can divide the total cups of dough by cups of dough for 1 dumpling

\text{Number of whole dumplings made } = \frac{\text{total cups of dough}}{\text{cups of dough for 1 dumpling}}\\\\\text{Number of whole dumplings made } = \frac{\frac{5}{2}}{\frac{3}{4}} = \frac{5}{2} \times \frac{4}{3}\\\\\text{Number of whole dumplings made } = \frac{10}{3} = 3.33 \approx 3

Thus 3 dumplings can be made
