Answer: 2.14 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : pH measurements of a chemical solutions have

Mean :  \mu=6.8

Standard deviation : \sigma=0.02

Let X be the pH reading of a randomly selected customer chemical solution.

We assume  pH measurements of this solution have a nearly symmetric/bell-curve distribution (i.e. normal distribution).

The z-score for the normal distribution is given by :-

z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

For x = 6.74

z=\dfrac{6.74-6.8}{0.02}=-3

For x = 6.76

z=\dfrac{6.76-6.8}{0.02}=-2

The p-value =P(6.74

P(z

In percent, 0.0214\times=2.14\%

Hence, the percent of pH measurements reading below 6.74 OR above 6.76 = 2.14%

Answer:

A t-score of 2.0244 should be used to find the 99% confidence interval for the population mean

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 39 - 1 = 38

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 38 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 0.99(t_{99}). So we have T = 2.0244.

A t-score of 2.0244 should be used to find the 99% confidence interval for the population mean

Calculate the slope of the line that contains the points: (2,-3) and (6,-3)
pshichka [43]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope (m) =

ΔY

ΔX

= 0

θ =

arctan( ΔY )

ΔX

= 0°

ΔX = 6 – 2 = 4

ΔY = -3 – -3 = 0

Distance (d) = √ΔX2 + ΔY2 = √16 = 4

Equation of the line:

y = 0x – 3

When x=0, y = -3
