Given: sample size n=22

Sample mean m=60

Population standard deviation σ =10

As the population standard deviation is given we will use z confidence interval for population mean.

The 99% confidence interval for Population mean is given by

(Sample mean - Margin of error, Sample mean + Margin of error)

Where Sample mean m=60

Margin of error = \frac{z_{\alpha/2} standard deviation}{\sqrt{n}}

Where alpha = 1- c = 1- 0.99 = 0.01

z (α/2) = z (0.005)

It means area below -z and and above z is 0.005

In the z score table look for the probability value 0.005 or close to 0.005. Corresponding z score value is

In the z score table there is no accurate probability value 0.005 . We have two close values 0.0049 and 0.0051 . Value 0.005 lies in middle of these two values.

The z score value for 0.0049 is -2.58 and for 0.0051 is -2.57

S the average of -2.58 and -2.57 will be our required z score value.

z score = (-2.57) + (-2.58) / 2 = -2.575

So we get two z score values one for left size and one for right side. We will use positive z score value 2.575

The margin of error = \frac{z_{\alpha/2} standard deviation}{\sqrt{n}}

= \frac{2.575*10}{\sqrt{22}}

= 5.4899

The 99% confidence interval for population mean will be

(60 - 5.4899, 60 + 5.4899)

(54.5101, 65.4899)

The 99% confidence interval is (54.5101, 65.4899)

11. Which could be the table of values that was used to graph the function of x shown below?
frutty [35]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to select the possible table of the given line

Let us look at the intercepts

On the x-axis, we have an intercept at x = 2

On the y-axis, we have an intercept at y = -4

This means that when y = 0, x = 2 and when x = 0, y = -4

Looking at the options, the table that supports this answer is the table of option D

The world's smallest plane has a length of 12 feet and the world's longest plane has a length of 302 feet. Write an absolute val
iren [92.7K]

An absolute value equation which could represent the length of a plane is : 12 feets ≥ x ≤ 302 feets

Smallest length of a plane = 12 feets

Longest length of a plane = 302 feets

This means that the minimum length of a plane cannot be below 12 feets and the maximum length of a plane cannot be above 302 feets

Using x as the length of a plane :

To represent as an absolute value ; we use inequality :

Minimum length ≥ x ≤ maximum length

12 feets ≥ x ≤ 302 feets .
