A random sample of 77 fields of corn has a mean yield of 26.226.2 bushels per acre and standard deviation of 2.322.32 bushels pe

r acre. Determine the 95%95% confidence interval for the true mean yield. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 2 : Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answer:

Therefore the  95% confidence interval is (25,707.480 < E < 26,744.920)

Step-by-step explanation:

n = 77

mean u = 26,226.2  bushels per acre

standard deviation s = 2,322.32

let E = true mean

let A = test statistic

Find 95% Confidence Interval

so

let  A =  (u - E) *  (\sqrt{n}  / s)   be the test statistic

we want      P( average_l <  A  < average_u )  = 95%

look for  lower 2.5%  and the upper 97.5%  Because I think this is a 2-tail test

average_l =  -1.96  which corresponds to the 2.5%

average_u = 1.96

P(  -1.96  <  A  <  1.96)  =  95%

P(  -1.96  <  (u - E) *  (\sqrt{n}  / s)  <  1.96)  =  95%

Solve for the true mean E ok

E   <   u + 1.96* (s  / \sqrt{n})

from  -1.96  <  (u - E) *  (\sqrt{n}  / s)

E < 26,226.2 +  1.96*( 2,322.32 / \sqrt{77} )

E < 26,226.2 +  1.96*( 2,322.32 / \sqrt{77} )

E < 26,226.2 +  518.7197348105429466

upper bound is 26,744.9197

or

u - 1.96* (s  / \sqrt{n})  < E

26,226.2 -  518.7197348105429466  < E

25,707.48026519  < E

lower bound is 25,707.48026519

Therefore the  95% confidence interval is (25,707.480 < E < 26,744.920)

12(6x + 10) + x = 9x + 5(1 – x) can u solve this?
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

-115/69

Step-by-step explanation:

12(6x + 10) + x = 9x + 5(1 - x)

72x + 120 + x = 9x + 5 - 5x

73x + 120 = 4x + 5

69x = 5 - 120

69x = -115

x = -115/69
