A professor records the difference between the marks scored by the students in the class test last week and those scored in the

dezoksy [38]

Answer: $(10.82\ , 13.18)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

$\mu\pm\ z_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

Given : Sample size : n= 35 , large sample (n>30)

Mean difference : $\overline{x}=12$

Standard deviation : $\sigma=3$

Significance level : $\alpha=- 1-0.999=0.001$

Critical value : $z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.0005}=3.4807567$

Now, the 99.9% confidence interval for the mean difference between the marks scored last week and marks scored this week by all the students will be :-

$12\pm\ (3.4807567)\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{35}}\\\\=12\pm1.18\\\\=(10.82\ , 13.18)$

Hence, the 99.9% confidence interval for the mean difference between the marks scored last week and marks scored this week by all the students = $(10.82\ , 13.18)$

How is the scientific use of the term digital different from the common use

Mamont248 [21]

While “digital” commonly refers to electronics in general, the scientific definition of digital is much different. “Digital” in information science refers to the finite, discontinuous phenomenon (e.g., on or off states in a light bulb) as opposed to infinitely varying, continuous analog phenomenon (e.g., the brightness of daylight). It can also refer to representing data in figures as opposed to data represented in pictorial form.
