A university with a high water bill is interested in estimating the mean amount of time that students spend in the shower each d

ay. In a sample of 11 students, the average time was 5.33 minutes and the standard deviation was 1.33 minutes. Using this sample information, construct a 99% confidence interval for the mean amount of time that students spend in the shower each day. Assume normality.a) What is the lower limit of the 99% interval? Give your answer to three decimal places.
b) What is the upper limit of the 99% interval? Give your answer to three decimal places.

Answer:

a) lower limit = 4.295 minutes

b) upper limit = 6.365 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = 5.33 minutes

Standard deviation r = 1.33 minutes

Number of samples n = 11

Confidence interval = 99%

z(at 99% confidence) = 2.58

Substituting the values we have;

5.33+/-2.58(1.33/√11)

5.33+/-2.58(0.401010088288)

5.33+/-1.0346060277

5.33+/-1.035

= ( 4.295, 6.365) minutes

Therefore at 99% confidence interval (lower, upper limit) = ( 4.295, 6.365) minutes

a) lower limit = 4.295 minutes

b) upper limit = 6.365 minutes

What is the solution to this system of equations?
maksim [4K]

Answer:x=3 y=1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

x+2y=4

2x-2y=5

Add both equations together

x+2x+2y-2y=4+5

3x+0=9

3x=9

Divide both sides by 3

3x/3=9/3

x=3

Substitute x=3 in x+2y=4

x+2y=4

3+2y=4

Collect like terms

2y=4-3

2y=1

Divide both sides by 2

2y/2=1/2

y=1/2

There is 12/15 of a pizza left.How many 3/10 pieces can be made from the leftover pizza?

So 12/15 simplifies to 4/5, and if you multiply both sides by two you have 8/10 so i guess 2 ( and some extra )
