Answer:

a) Margin of error = 166.311

b) sample size ≥ 62

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Average cost = $1599

Sample size = 50 persons

Standard deviation = $600

Confidence level is 95%

a) Margin of error = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Now for confidence level of 95% z-value = 1.96

Thus,

Margin of error = 1.96\frac{600}{\sqrt{50}}

or

Margin of error = 166.311

b) For Margin of error ≤ 150

z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} ≤ 150

or

1.96\frac{600}{\sqrt{n}} ≤ 150

or

1.96\frac{600}{150} ≤ √n

or

√n ≥ 7.84

or

n ≥ 61.4656

Therefore,

sample size ≥ 62

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the operations manager of a plant that manufactures tires wishes to compare the actual inner diameter of two grades of tires, each of which has a nominal value of 575 millimeters. A sample of five tires of each grade is selected, and the results representing the inner diameters of the tires, ranked from smallest to largest, are as follows:

Grade X

568 570 575 578 584

Mean = Total/5 = 575

Median = middle entry = 575

Mode = nil

Grade Y

573 574 575 577 578

Mean = sum/5 = 575.4

Median = middle entry =575

Mode = nil

sana is senior to Mona by 18 years after 6 years.Sana will be twice as old as Mona. find Mona,s percentage​
Gwar [14]
Let
Present age of Sana = s
Present age of Mona = m


Sana is senior to Mona by 18 years
s=m+18............(1)

After 6 years
Sana will be = s+6
Mona will be = m+6
Then
Sana will be twice as old as Mona
(s+6)=2(m+6)
s+6=2m+12
s=2m+12-6
s=2m+6.............(2)
Put the value of s from (2) to (1)
2m+6=m+18
2m-m=18-6
m=12
Put the value of m in (1)
s=m+18
s=12+18
s=30



Present age of Sana = s = 30 years old
Present age of Mona = m = 12 years old
