Answer:

c) 0.932

99% confidence interval for average weights of all packages sold in small meat trays.

(0.932 ,1.071)

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given random sample of 35 packages in small meat trays produced weight with an average of 1.01 lbs. and standard deviation  of 0.18 lbs.

size of the sample 'n' = 35

mean of the sample x⁻= 1.01lbs

standard deviation of the sample 'S' = 0.18lbs

<u>The 99% confidence intervals are given by</u>

(x^{-} - t_{\alpha } \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} +t_{\alpha } \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } )

The degrees of freedom γ=n-1 =35-1=34

tₐ =  2.0322

99% confidence interval for average weights of all packages sold in small meat trays

(1.01 - 2.0322 \frac{0.18}{\sqrt{35} } , 1.01+2.0322 \frac{0.18}{\sqrt{35} } )

( 1.01 - 0.06183 , 1.01+0.06183)

(0.932 ,1.071)

<u>Final answer</u>:-

<u>99% confidence interval for average weights of all packages sold in small meat trays.</u>

<u>(0.932 ,1.071)</u>

Tommy can ride his bicycle 4.5 miles in 15 minutes. How many miles can he ride in 75 minutes
adoni [48]
Here, we need to set up a proportion.

4.5 miles in 15 minutes.

In 75 minutes, how much miles can he ride?

4.5/15 = x/75

Cross multiply

4.5 * 75 = 337.5
15*x = 15x

15x = 337.5

15x/15 = 337.5/15
x= 22.5

Final answer:- Tommy can ride 22.5 miles in 75 minutes.
