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)

The volume of a rectangular prism is 6x^3 -x^2 -2x. Which model could represent the rectangular prism?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

The formula of a volume of a rectangular prism: V = lwh

l - length

w - width

h - height

We have the volume:

V=6x^3-x^2-2x=x(6x^2-x-2)=x(6x^2+3x-4x-2)\\\\=x[3x(2x+1)-2(2x+1)]=x(2x+1)(3x-2)\\\\Answer:\ \boxed{A.\ Height:3x-2,\ Length:2x+1,\ Width:x}

Stells [14]

Answer:

Functions can be symmetrical about the y-axis, which means that if we reflect their graph about the y-axis we will get the same graph. ... These are two types of symmetry we call even and odd functions.
