Suppose that the hourly wages of fast food workers are normally distributed with an unknown mean and standard deviation. The wag

es of 40 randomly sampled fast food workers are used to estimate the mean wage of the population. What t-score should be used to find the 80% confidence interval for the population mean?

Answer: 1.303639

Step-by-step explanation:

The t-score for a level of confidence (1-\alpha) is given by :_

t_{(df,\alpha/2)}, where df is the degree of freedom and \alpha is the significance level.

Given : Level of significance : 1-\alpha:0.80

Then , significance level : \alpha: 1-0.80=0.20

Sample size : n=40

Then , the degree of freedom for t-distribution: df=n-1=40-1=39

Using the normal t-distribution table, we have

t_{(df,\alpha/2)}=t_{39,0.10}=1.303639

Thus, the t-score should be used to find the 80% confidence interval for the population mean =1.303639

Write the standard form of the equation of each line. How do I find the slope and y-intercept with the graph for problem 6???
lisov135 [29]
The standard form for an equation is y=mx+b. You find the slope by using the formula of rise over run. This means that for problem 6 you first look to see if its positive or negative slope. The slope is positive if the line is going uphill and if its going downhill its negative. The slope would be negative for number 6 because it is going downhill. Then for the actualy slope you would start with rise. So you look at the point (0,1) and go up 3 until you hit the line of the other point and run over 2. So your slope would be -3/2.

If 2/3 of a certain number is subtracted from twice the number, the result is 20. Find the number.​
sleet_krkn [62]

Let x be the number.

Set up an equation:

2x - 2/3x = 20

Simplify:

1 1/3x = 20

Divide both sides by 1 1/3

X = 15

The number is 15
