A market research company wishes to know how many energy drinks adults drink each week. They want to construct a 80% confidence

interval for the mean and are assuming that the population standard deviation for the number of energy drinks consumed each week is 0.9. The study found that for a sample of 164 adults the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week is 7.9. Construct the desired confidence interval. Round your answers to one decimal place.

Answer:

The confidence interval = (7.8 , 8.0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval formula =

Mean ± z × Standard deviation/√n

Mean = 7.9

Standard deviation = 0.9

n = number of samples = 164

z = z score of an 80% confidence interval = 1.282

Confidence Interval = 7.9 ± 1.282 × 0.9/√164

= 7.9 ± 0.0900966432

Confidence Interval

= 7.9 - 0.0900966432

= 7.8099033568

Approximately to 1 decimal place = 7.8

7.9 + 0.0900966432

= 7.9900966432

Approximately to 1 decimal place = 8.0

Therefore, the confidence interval = (7.8 , 8.0)

A student can pitch a fast ball at 65 miles per hour. Convert this
AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

31.77 yd/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Conversions:</u>

  • 1 mile = 1760 yards
  • 1 hour = 3600 seconds

<u>Given:</u>

\sf 65\:miles\:per\:hour=65\:miles/hour=\dfrac{65\:miles}{hour}

Therefore, to convert 65 mph to yards per second:

\implies \sf \dfrac{65\:miles}{hour}=\dfrac{65 \times 1760\:yards}{3600\:seconds}=31.777...\:yd/s

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line (y=Mx+b) through the given point:
OleMash [197]

Answer:

<h2>          y = 2x + 6</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

M=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{2-0}{-2-(-3)}=\dfrac21=2

y = 2x + b  passes through point (-3, 0), so:

0 = 2(-3) + b

0 = -6 + b

b = 6

Therefore the equation:  <u>y = 2x + 6</u>
