You measure the weight of 49 backpacks, and find they have a mean weight of 67 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation

is 8.8 ounces?. Based on this, what is the maximal margin of error associated with a 94% confidence interval for the true population mean backpack weight.

Answer: 2.36

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the margin of error is given by :-

E=z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Given : Significance level : \alpha: 1-0.94=0.06

Critical value : z_{\alpha/2}=1.88   [Using standard normal distribution table]

Sample size : n=49

Standard deviation : 8.8 ounces

Then , the margin of error will be :-

E=(1.88)\dfrac{8.8}{\sqrt{49}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ E=2.36342857143\approx2.36

Hence, the margin of error associated with a 94% confidence interval for the true population mean backpack weight = 2.36

What is the product of (X4/3)(X2/3) ?
katrin [286]
Hi, the answer to this would be x6/9. I'm assuming the x4/3 and x2/3 are fractions and the x's aren't exponents. Now how I got x6/9 is shown here.

1st Step: Started off by regrouping the terms
1/3x3 x^4x^2

2nd Step: we can easily simplify 3x3 to just 9. And now we're left with 1/9x^4x^2

3rd Step: Now we can simplify the 1/9 to just x^4x^2/9

4th Step: Now we can use the product rule which is simple. So We add the exponents and simplify it to just one exponent. So x4+2=6 that simplifies to just x^6.

Final Answer: x^6/9.
Hope this helped you :)

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest earned during the rest of 2 years and 6 months

40 + 40 + 40 = 120

he will be getting 1000 at the time of maturity ie after 2.5 years .

Total receipt = 1000 + 120 = 1120

investment made = 820

total receipt earned = 1120

profit made = 300

time = 2.5 years

profit = investment x rate of intt x time / 100

300 = 820 x r x 2.5 / 100  where r is rate of interest

r = 30000 / 820 x 2.5

= 14.63 % .

PV = P(1 - (1 + r)^-n) / r; where P is the periodic withdrawal = $100,000; r = rate = 5% = 0.05; n = number of periods = 20 years.

PV = 100000(1 - (1 + 0.05)^-20) / 0.05 = 100000(1 - 1.05^-20) / 0.05 = 100000(1 - 0.3769) / 0.05 = 100000(0.6231) / 0.05 = 100000(12.4622) = 1,246,221 ≈ $1,250,000
