Suppose a 95% confidence interval for μ turns out to be (1,000, 2,100). To make more useful inferences from the data, it is desi

red to reduce the width of the confidence interval. Which of the following will result in a reduced interval width? A) Increase the sample size. B) Increase the confidence level. C) Increase the population mean. D) Increase the sample mean.

Answer:

a) Increase the sample size

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a 95%  confidence interval for μ turns out to be (1,000, 2,100)

The confidence interval is formed as

\mu+/- Margin of error

Margin of error = critical value * std dev/sqrt of sample size

Hence for the same confidence level, we cannot change critical value.

The only available ways are either to decrease std deviation or increase the sample size to make it narrower.

If confidence level becomes higher, then confidence interval would be wider.

Here  out of four options the correct option is

a) Increase the sample size

Determine which of the lines are parallel and which of the lines are perpendicular. Select all of the statements that are true.
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

Lines a and b are parallel

Lines a and c are perpendicular

Lines d and c are perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

Part 1) Find the slope of Line a

we have the points

(-3,4) and (3,6)

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{6-4}{3+3}

m=\frac{2}{6}

simplify

m_a=\frac{1}{3}

Part 2) Find the slope of Line b

we have the points

(-10,-3) and (-8,3)

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{3+3}{-8+10}

m=\frac{6}{2}

m_b=3

Part 3) Find the slope of Line c

we have the points

(0,5) and (3,-4)

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{-4-5}{3-0}

m=\frac{-9}{3}

m_c=-3

Part 4) Find the slope of Line d

we have the points

(4,-7) and (13,-4)

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{-4+7}{13-4}

m=\frac{3}{9}

simplify

m_d=\frac{1}{3}

Part 5) Compare the slopes

Remember that

If two lines are parallel then their slopes are the same

If two lines are perpendicular then their slopes are opposite reciprocal

we have

m_a=\frac{1}{3}

m_b=3

m_c=-3

m_d=\frac{1}{3}

therefore

Lines a and b are parallel (slopes are equal)

Lines a and c are perpendicular (slopes are opposite reciprocal)

Lines d and c are perpendicular (slopes are opposite reciprocal)
