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)

If auto insurance cost $8.00 per $1,000 of coverage what is the cost to insure a car valued at 15,400?
Zina [86]
If you would like to know what is the cost to insure a car valued at 15400, you can calculate this using the following steps:

$8 ... $1000
$x = ? ... $15400

8 * 15400 = 1000 * x    /1000
x = 8 * 15400 / 1000
x = $123.2

The correct result would be $123.2.
