Given:
n = 50, sample size
\bar{x} = 23.6 \, min, sample mean
s = 2.4 min, sample standard deviation.

The confidence interval is
\bar{x} \pm t^{*} \frac{s}{ \sqrt{n} }

At the 99% confidence level, t* (from the student's t-distribution) is 
t* = 2.68
Therefore
t*(s/√n) = 2.68*(2.4/√50) = 0.9096

The confidence interval is
(23.6-0.9096, 23.6+0.9096) ≈ (22.69, 24.51)

Answer: (22.7, 24.5)

What number could be added to 0.40 mL for the level pf precision to be 0.01mL?
Mila [183]

Answer:

-0.39mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number.

The expression would be: 0.40 + x = 0.01

Apply algebra to the equation to solve for x. You can subtract 0.40 from each side to simplify the expression. Here's what it should look like after applying algebra: x = -0.39

Therefore the answer is -0.39mL

Rina draws a plan of her school on a coordinate grid. She plots the school gate at point p(-8,-1) and the library at point Q(2,5
natka813 [3]

Answer:

The coordinates of the science lab is:

x = -14/3  ,  y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ P is (-8 , -1) and Q is (2 , 5)

∵ The point of the science lab is (x , y)

∵ The science lab point divided PQ at ratio 2 : 1 from Q (two thirds PQ)

∴ x=\frac{m_{1}x_{p}+m_{2}x_{q}}{m_{1}+m_{2}}

∴ y=\frac{m_{1}y_{p}+m_{2}y_{q}}{m_{1}+m_{2}}

∴ x=\frac{2(-8)+1(2)}{1+2}=\frac{-14}{3}

∴ y=\frac{2(-1)+1(5)}{2+1}=\frac{3}{3}=1

∴ The point of science lab = (-14/3 , 1)

What is the period of the sinusoidal function?<br><br> Enter your answer in the box.
aniked [119]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph we can read off the interval over which the graph repeats itself.  If we chose to begin at (0,0), the graph would repeat itself beginning at (4,0).  Thus, the period is 4.
