A polymer is manufactured in a batch chemical process. Viscosity measurements show that it is approximately normally distributed

with a standard deviation of 20. A random sample of 42 batches has a mean viscosity of 759. Construct a 99% confidence interval around the true population mean viscosity.

Answer: (751.05, 766.95)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

\overline{x}\pm z*\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}},

where \sigma =population standard deviation.

\overline{x}= sample mean

n= sample size

z* = Two-tailed critical z-value.

Given :  \sigma= 20

n= 42

\overline{x}=759

We know that from z-table , the two-tailed critical value for 99% confidence interval : z* =2.576

Now, the 99% confidence interval around the true population mean viscosity :-

759\pm (2.5760)\dfrac{20}{\sqrt{42}}\\\\=759\pm (2.5760)(3.086067)\\\\=759\pm7.9497=(759-7.9497,\ 759+7.9497)\]\\=(751.0503,\ 766.9497)\approx(751.05,\ 766.95)

∴ A 99% confidence interval around the true population mean viscosity : (751.05, 766.95)

Give 1 pair of Vertical and 1 pair of Supplementary angles
mojhsa [17]

Solution:

Vertical angles are a pair of opposite angles formed by intersecting lines. re vertical angles. Vertical angles are always congruent.

These two angles (140° and 40°) are Supplementary Angles because they add up to 180°:

Notice that together they make a straight angle.

Hence,

From the image

The following pairs form vertical angles

\begin{gathered} \angle1=\angle3(vertical\text{ angles)} \\ \angle2=\angle4(vertical\text{ angles)} \\ \angle5=\angle7(vertical\text{ angles)} \\ \angle6=\angle6(vertical\text{ angles)} \end{gathered}

Hence,

One pair of the vertical angles is ∠1 and ∠3

Part B:

Two angles are said to be supplementary when they ad together to give 180°

Hence,

From the image,

The following pairs are supplementary angles

\begin{gathered} \angle5+\angle6=180^0(supplementary\text{ angles)} \\ \angle5+\angle8=180^0(supplementary\text{ angles)} \\ \angle7+\angle8=180^0(supplementary\text{ angles)} \\ \angle6+\angle7=180^0(supplementary\text{ angles)} \\ \angle1+\angle2=180^0(supplementary\text{ angles)} \\ \angle1+\angle4=180^0(supplementary\text{ angles)} \\ \angle2+\angle3=180^0(supplementary\text{ angles)} \\ \angle3+\angle4=180^0(supplementary\text{ angles)} \end{gathered}

Hence,

One pair of supplementary angles is ∠5 and ∠6
