Given:
n = 20, sample size
xbar = 17.5, sample mean
s = 3.8, sample standard deiation
99% confidence interval

The degrees of freedom is 
df = n-1 = 19

We do not know the population standard deviation, so we should determine t* that corresponds to df = 19.
From a one-tailed distribution, 99% CI means using a p-value of 0.005.
Obtain
t* = 2.8609.

The 99% confidence interval is
xbar +/- t*(s/√n)

t*(s/√n) = 2.8609*(3.8/√20) = 2.4309
The 99% confidence interval is
(17.5 - 2.4309, 17.5 + 2.4309) = (15.069, 19.931)

Answer: The 99% confidence interval is (15.07, 19.93)

To find out how much she earned hourly, all we need to do is divide 312 and 39

312 ÷ 39 = 8

Therefore, she was paid $8 per hour

Winston's team participated in a total of 22 chess matches. Winston
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Peter Jonathan Winston (March 18, 1958 – disappeared January 26, 1978) was an American chess player from New York City

Step-by-step explanation:

In late 1977, Winston attended a FIDE-rated tournament at Hunter College High School in New York City. Despite being one of the highest-rated players in the tournament, Winston lost all nine of his games. A few months later, on January 26, 1978, following further surprising game losses, Peter Winston vanished and was never heard from again. According to some sources, Winston's disappearance occurred when he left his home without money, identification, or luggage during a severe winter storm. Many chess players who were close to or acquainted with Winston claim that the champion chess player's mental health had deteriorated, along with his game performance, in the last few years of his life, and that the decline in his mental health may have led to his disappearance.
