A major department store chain is interested in estimating the mean amount its credit card customers spent on their first visit

to the chain's new store in the mall. Fifteen credit card accounts were randomly sampled and analyzed with the following results: X = $50.50 and S = 20.
Construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean amount its credit card customers spent on their first visit to the chain's new store in the mall assuming that the amount spent follows a normal distribution.

Answer:

95% Confidence interval: (39.43, 61.58)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample mean, \bar{x} = $50.50

Sample size, n = 15

Alpha, α = 0.05

Sample standard deviation = 20

95% Confidence interval:

\bar{x} \pm t_{critical}\displaystyle\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}  

Putting the values, we get,  

t_{critical}\text{ at degree of freedom 14 and}~\alpha_{0.05} = \pm 2.1447  

=50.50 \pm 2.1447(\dfrac{20}{\sqrt{15}} ) \\\\= 50.50 \pm 11.0751 \\= (39.4249,61.5751)\\\approx (39.43, 61.58)  

95% Confidence interval: (39.43, 61.58)

A guitar string is plucked at a distance of 0.6 centimeters above its resting position and then released, causing vibration. The
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

The equation that represents the motion of the string is given by:

y =Ae^{-kt}\cos(2\pi ft)     .....[1] where t represents the time in second.

Given that: A = 0.6 cm (distance above its resting position) , k = 1.8(damping constant) and frequency(f) = 105 cycles per second.

Substitute the given values in [1] we get;

y =0.6e^{-1.8t}\cos(2\pi 105t)  

or

y =0.6e^{-1.8t}\cos(210\pi t)  

(a)

The trigonometric function that models the motion of the string is given by:

y =0.6e^{-1.8t}\cos(210\pi t)

(b)

Determine the amount of time t that it takes the string to be damped so that -0.24\leq y \leq0.24

Using graphing calculator for the equation

y =0.6e^{-1.8x}\cos(210\pi x)

let x = t (time in sec)  

Graph as shown below in the attachment:

we get:

the amount of time t that it takes the string to be damped so that -0.24\leq y \leq0.24 is, 0.5 sec
