The NCAA is interested in estimating the difference in mean number of daily training hours for men and women athletes on college

campuses. It wants 95 percent confidence and will select a sample of 10 men and 10 women for the study. The variances are assumed equal and the populations normally distributed. The sample results are:

Answer:

s^2_p = \frac{9*0.3^2 +9*0.4^2}{10+10-2}=0.125

s_p =\sqrt{0.125}=0.354

(2.7 -2.4) - 2.1*0.354\sqrt{\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{10}}=-0.032  

(2.7 -2.4)+ 2.1*0.354\sqrt{\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{10}}=0.632  

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts  

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

Data given

\bar X_M = 2.7 represent the sample mean for men

\bar X_F = 2.4 represent the sample mean for women

s_M = 0.3 represent the sample deviation for men

s_F = 0.4 represent the sample deviation for women

n_M = 10 sample size of male

n_F =10 sample size of women

The confidence interval is given by:

(\bar X_M -\bar X_F) \pm t_{\alpha/2} S_p \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_M}+\frac{1}{n_F}}   (1)

The polled variance can be calculated with this formula:

s^2_p = \frac{9*0.3^2 +9*0.4^2}{10+10-2}=0.125

s_p =\sqrt{0.125}=0.354

For a confidence of 95% the value for the significance is \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2 = 0.025, the degrees of freedom are given by:

df = n_M + n_F -2= 10+10-2=18

And the critical value can be calculated with the following formula in excel: "=T.INV(1-0.025,18)" and we got t_{\alpha/2}=2.1

Now we can replace into the confidence interval:

(2.7 -2.4) - 2.1*0.354\sqrt{\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{10}}=-0.032  

(2.7 -2.4)+ 2.1*0.354\sqrt{\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{10}}=0.632

What 2 numbers add to 17 and multiply to -168?
nekit [7.7K]
A) x + y = 17
B) x * y = -168

y = -168/x then inputting this into A)

x + -168/x = 17
x^2 -168 -17x = 0

Circle O has a circumference of approximately 44 in. What is the approximate length of the diameter, d? inches
LenKa [72]
The distance around a rectangle or a square is as you might remember called the perimeter. The distance around a circle on the other hand is called the circumference. It is calculated as follows:

C = 2pi(r)

From this, we can solve for r and evetually solve for the diameter.

44 = 2pi(r)
r = 7.00
d = 2r
d = 14

The Excel file Store and Regional Sales Database provides sales data for computers and peripherals showing the store identificat
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

Total sales revenue use  excel function : ( SUMIF. =sumif(range, criteria, [sum_range] )

For each of the stores: Use excel function: For Store 1: =sumif(B4:B99,1,I4:I99) then repeat same for Store 2 to store 8

Step-by-step explanation:

To modify the spreadsheet to calculate the total sales revenue we will add a column " sales revenue "

multiply values of column : ( unit sold * unit price )  to get Total sales revenue. then use  excel function : ( SUMIF. =sumif(range, criteria, [sum_range] ) to find Total sales revenue

calculate the total revenue for each of the 8 stores using a pivot table using  "store identification number" in row  and " sales revenue " in values field

To get the sales revenue ; replace " store identification value" with sales region " column
