B. (39460.25, 55717.75)

Answer:

B. (39460.25, 55717.75)

Step-by-step explanation:

Our sample size is 10.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom there are, that is, the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 10-1 = 9

Then, we need to subtract one by the confidence level \alpha and divide by 2. So:

\frac{1-0.95}{2} = \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.025

Now, we need our answers from both steps above to find a value T in the t-distribution table. So, with 9 and 0.025 in the t-distribution table, we have T = 2.26.

Now, we need to find the standard deviation of the sample. That is:

s = \frac{11.364}{\sqrt{10}} = 3593.6

Now, we multiply T and s

M = T*s = 2.262*3593.61 = 8128.75

For the lower end of the interval, we subtract the mean by M. So 47589 - 8128.75 = 39460.25

For the upper end of the interval, we add the mean to M. So 47589 + 8128.75 = 55717.75.

The correct answer is:

B. (39460.25, 55717.75)

You can mow one acre in 126 minutes. i can mow one acre in 117 minutes. how long will it take you to mow a 0.17-acre lawn? 13 in
Morgarella [4.7K]

a) (0.17 ac)×(126 min/ac) = 21.42 min

b) I can mow 1/126 ac/min; you can mow 1/117 ac/min. Together, we can mow at a rate that is the sum of these:

... (1/126 + 1/117) ac/min = (117 + 126)/(126×117) = 243/14,742 ac/min

Then it will take 14,742/243 min/ac × 0.17 ac/lawn ≈ 10.31 min/lawn
