Answer:
b. 35.9, 39.1 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".
The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.
Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".
barX=37.465 represent the sample mean for the sample
population mean (variable of interest)
s=2.27 represent the sample standard deviation
n=10 represent the sample size
Confidence interval
The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:
barX +- t*[(s)/(sqrt{n))] (1)
In order to calculate the critical value t we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:
df=n-1=10-1=9
Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of alpha=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025, and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.025,9)".And we see that t_(alpha/2)=2.26
Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):
37.465-2.26[(2.27)/(sqrt{10))]=35.9
37.465+2.26[(2.27)/(sqrt{10))]=39.1
So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (35.9;39.1)
Answer:
the common ratio is 0.98.
Step-by-step explanation:
A fish population in a lake decreases by 2% each year. We are asked to find the common ratio.
The decrease of population of fish 2% annually means the population becomes next year 100% - 2% = 98%
Therefore, the common ratio would be 98%. Upon converting 98 percent to a decimal we will get,
98% =
Therefore, the common ratio or decay factor is 0.98.
Answer:
S(t) = 4.725t + 478.25
S(t) = 4.725(42)+478.25
S(t) = 676.7
Step-by-step explanation:
In the question, score is a function of time, that means time is the x-axis, while score is the y-axis.
Order the pairs to get:
(30,620) and (70, 809)
With these values, you use the the equation to get the slope m.
Use this equation and input any ordered pair to get the final function.
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y-620 = 4.725x-141.75
y = 4.725x + 478.25
Replace x with t and y with S(t) to fit the x & y axis of the question.
