Answer: ( 77.27 , 83.93)

Therefore at 95% confidence/prediction interval is

= ( 77.27 , 83.93)

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 = 80.6 words per minute

Standard deviation r = 7.2

Number of samples n = 18

Confidence interval = 95%

z(at 95% confidence) = 1.96

Substituting the values we have;

80.6+/-1.96(7.2/√18)

80.6+/-1.96(1.697056274847)

80.6 +/- 3.33

= ( 77.27 , 83.93)

Therefore at 95% confidence/prediction interval is

= ( 77.27 , 83.93)

forsale [732]

Answer:

47 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Mean = Sum of values/Number of values

Number of values is 6

From the above question, we are only given 5 values,

The 6th value is represent as= x

Hence,

60 miles + 66 miles+ 70 miles+ 60 miles+ 51 miles + x miles/6 = 59 miles

Cross Multiply

60 miles + 66 miles+ 70 miles+ 60 miles+ 51 miles + x miles = 6 × 59 miles

307 miles + x miles = 354 miles

x miles = 354 miles - 307 miles

x miles = 47 miles

Therefore, the number of miles he need to run on day 6 is 47 miles
