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.

Ms. Zab gave a group of 5 students a total of 18.75 liters of water for a science experiment. If each student in the group used
wlad13 [49]

Answer: The quantity of the water received by each student = 3.75 liters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Total water = 18.75 liters

Total students =5

If each student in the group used the same amount of water for their experiment, then the quantity of the water received by each student = \dfrac{\text{Total quantity}}{\text{Total students}}

=\dfrac{18.75}{5}\\\\=3.75\ liters

The quantity of the water received by each student = 3.75 liters.

Write a quadratic equation in standard form that has two solutions, -9 and 3
erastovalidia [21]
So for this you need the two solutions to be x= -9 and x=3 then move over the numbers and put in brackets (x+9)(x-3) then multiply together x^2+9x-3x-27 then combine like terms to get x^2+6-27

The school band is selling raffle tickets for $2. If Kyle spent p dollars on tickets this week and q dollars on tickets the week
Alex

Answer:

Tickets = p/2 + q/2

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't understand the options, as written.

The answer should be Tickets = p/2 + q/2

If q = 10 and p = 20, Kyle would have bought 5 tickets the week before, and 10 tickets this week.
