Answer: the number of years is 7.3 years

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for exponential decay which is expressed as

A = P(1 - r)^ t

Where

A represents the population after t years.

t represents the number of years.

P represents the initial population.

r represents rate of growth.

From the information given,

P = 1250

A = 1000

r = 3% = 3/100 = 0.03,

Therefore

1000 = 1250(1 - 0.03)^t

1000/1250 = (0.97)^t

0.8 = 0.97^t

Taking log of both sides, it becomes

Log 0.8 = tLog 0.97

- 0.0969 = - 0.0132t

t = - 0.0969/- 0.0132t

t = 7.3 years

The length of a movie falls on a normal distribution. About 95% of movies fall between 75 minutes and 163 minutes.
ioda

Answer:

a) x = 119 minutes

the mean value for average movie length in minutes is 119 minutes

b) margin of error M.E = 44 minutes

Note; Since the number of samples used is not given, the standard deviation r cannot be calculated using the equation

M.E = zr/√n

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

x+/-M.E

M.E = zr/√n

Given that;

M.E = margin of error

Mean = x

Standard deviation = r

Number of samples = n

Confidence interval = 95%

z value (at 95% confidence) = 1.96

a) The mean value x can be calculated as;

x = (a+b)/2

Where a and b are the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval;

a = 75 minutes

b = 163 minutes

substituting the values;

x = (75+163)/2

x = 119 minutes

the mean value for average movie length in minutes is 119 minutes

b) the margin of error M.E can be calculated as;

M.E = (b-a)/2

Substituting the values;

M.E = (163-75)/2

M.E = 44 minutes

Since the number of samples used is not given, the standard deviation r cannot be calculated using the equation

M.E = zr/√n
