A Packaging Company produces boxes out of cardboard and has a specified weight of 16 oz. A random sample of 36 boxes yielded a s

Answer:

The margin of error is of 0.73 oz.

The 99% confidence interval for the true mean weight of the boxes is between 14.57 oz and 16.03 oz. This means that we are 99% sure that the true mean weight of all boxed produced by the Packaging Company is between these two values, and that the specified weight is in this interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.005$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1 - \alpha$ .

That is z with a pvalue of $1 - 0.005 = 0.995$ , so Z = 2.575.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

$M = 2.575\frac{1.7}{\sqrt{36}} = 0.73$

The margin of error is of 0.73 oz.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 15.3 - 0.73 = 14.57 oz.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 15.3 + 0.73 = 16.03 oz.

The 99% confidence interval for the true mean weight of the boxes is between 14.57 oz and 16.03 oz. This means that we are 99% sure that the true mean weight of all boxed produced by the Packaging Company is between these two values, and that the specified weight is in this interval.

Convert the following using dimensional analysis:<br><br> 13.2 cm to ft & in

spayn [35]

Multiply (13.2 cm) by (1 inch/2.54 cm). That gives you the whole length in inches. If it's more than 12, then take as many 12s away from it as you can, and call each of those '1 foot'. When you can't take 12 away any more, then what you have left is the inches.

Answer:

$2447.40.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that your parents have been advised to save 5% of their income for your college education, which would include money for housing, tuition, books, and fees. They had an average household income of $48,948.

Let us find 5% of average household income to find the savings of your parents in one year.

$\text{Savings of your parents in one year}=\$48,948\times \frac{5}{100}$
