An environmental group at a local college is conducting independent tests to determine the distance a particular make of automob

ile will travel while consuming only 1 gallon of gas. They test a sample of five cars and obtain a mean of 28.2 miles. Assuming that the standard deviation is 2.7 miles, find the 95 percent confidence interval for the mean distance traveled by all such cars using 1 gallon of gas.

Answer:

26.5265

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Confidence Interval</u>

When the population standard deviation \sigma is known, the formula for a confidence interval for a population mean \bar x is:

\displaystyle \bar x \pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Where n is the sample size and z is the corresponding z-value from the standard normal distribution for the selected confidence level. The value of z for a 95% confidence interval is z=1.96. The rest of the values are

\bar x=28.2,\ \sigma=2.7, \ n=10

Calculating the confidence interval

\displaystyle 28.2 \pm 1.96\frac{2.7}{\sqrt{10}}

\displaystyle 28.2 \pm 1.6735

Or, equivalently

26.5265

Answer:

  water

Step-by-step explanation:

Comparison of numbers can be done a couple of different ways. One way is to subtract one from the other. If the difference is positive, the minuend (first number) is the larger of the two.

Another way is to divide one number by the other. If the ratio is more than 1, then the numerator is the larger number.

For numbers in scientific notation, the division is perhaps the easiest. Here, that gives you ...

  \displaystyle\frac{\text{water mass}}{\text{oxygen mass}}=\frac{2.99\times10^{-26}\text{ kg}}{2.66\times10^{-26}\text{ kg}}=\frac{2.99}{2.66}\approx 1.12

This value is greater than 1, so the mass of a water molecule is greater.

__

You will note that the multipliers (10^-26 kg) cancelled because they were equal. If they are unequal, the usual rules of exponents apply.
