Answer:

95% Confidence interval of the standard deviation: 3.33 ≤ σ ≤ 8.85

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size = 10

Degrees of freedom = 10-1 = 9

For a 95% confidence interval, we have  α=0.05, which gives 2.5% of the area at each end of the chi-square distribution.

We calculate the chi-square values for a 95% confidence interval

Value of chi-square_0.975 = 2.70

Value of chi-square_0.025 = 19.02

We then evaluate [tex]\sqrt{ \frac{(n-1)*s^{2} }{X^{2} }}[/tex] for the two values of chi-square.

Then we have:

[tex]\sqrt{\frac{(n-1)*s^{2} }{X^{2}}} =\sqrt{\frac{(10-1)*4.848^{2} }{2.70}}=\sqrt{78.34}=8.85\\\\\\sqrt{\frac{(n-1)*s^{2} }{X^{2}}} =\sqrt{\frac{(10-1)*4.848^{2} }{19.02}}=\sqrt{11.12}=3.33[/tex]

With these results we can express the confidence interval as

3.33 ≤ σ ≤ 8.85

Add 2x to both sides,
3x+9=18
Subtract 9 from both sides. 3x=9
Divide both sides by 3.

NEED HELP ASAP!!!
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

(b) P(\textrm{Event of getting a 3 in the spinner)}  =  \frac{11}{61}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let E: Event of getting a 3 in the spinner.

So, the number of favorable outcomes  =  11

Total number of outcomes = Number of times the outcomes is {1,2,3,4,5,6}

= {13 +10 +11+16+11}  = { 61}

So, the total number of outcomes = 61

\textrm{Probability of Event E}  = \frac{\textrm{Number of favorable events}}{\textrm{Total number of outcomes}}

So, here P(\textrm{Event of getting a 3 in the spinner)}  =  \frac{11}{61}
