Answer:

B. [3.86, 4.64]

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the 95% confidence interval for the average number of strokes, we need to have these following informations:

Sample size

Average of the sample

Standard deviation of the sample

Is this problem, we have that

Sample size = 64

Average = 4.25

Standard deviation = 1.6

Now, we need to find the degree of freedom and the value of /alpha, so we can find the a value that is needed for this calculus in the t-distribution table

The degree of freedom is the sample size subtracted by 1. So:

v = 64 - 1 = 63

/alpha is the result of the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval(decimal) divided by two. So

\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025

Looking at the t-distribution table, with v = 63, \alpha = 0.025, we find that the value is 1.998.

Now we need to multiply this value by the standard deviation of the sample and divide by the square root of the sample size. So:

A = \frac{1.998*1.6}{\sqrt{64}} = \frac{3.1968}{8} = 0.39

Now

For the lower range of the interval, we subtract A from the mean

L = 4.25 - 0.39 = 3.86

For the upper end of the interval, we add A to the mean

So

H = 4.25 + 0.39 = 4.64

So the correct answer is

B. [3.86, 4.64]

Assign a variable to each quantity and write each statement as an inequality. Then give an example
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

1.

Variable: x

Inequality: x ≤ 12

Value that matches: 12

2.

Variable: y

Inequality: y < 66

Value that matches: 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (1):

Let x be the variable

Reading through the question, we have the inequality to be represented by "at most".

At most is used for less than or equal to.

Hence, the expression can be represented by:

x ≤ 12

The range of this inequality is limited to all natural number that do not exceed 12.

Examples are 8, 2, 11, 12

Solving (2):

Let the variable be y

Reading through the question, we have the inequality to be represented by "below".

Below means less than

Hence, the expression can be represented by:

y < 66

The range of this inequality is limited to all number less than 66.

Examples are 65, 1 , 60......
