Given that,

Sample size= 83

Mean number= 39.04

Standard deviation= 11.51

We know the critical t-value for  95% confidence interval which is equal to 1.989.

We also know the formula for confidence interval,

CI=( mean number - critical t-value*standard deviation/(sample size)^(1/2), mean number + critical t-value*standard deviation/(sample size)^(1/2))

So, we have

CI= (39.04 - 1.989*11.51/83^(1/2), 39.04 + 1.989*11.51/83^(1/2)

CI= (39.04 - 2.513,39.04 + 2.513)

CI= (36.527,41.553)

Therefore, 95% confidence interval for these data is (36.527,41.553), and this result interpret that the true value for this survey sample lie in the interval (36.527,41.553).

Answer: We are 95% confidence that the respondents  are worked between 36.57 hours and 41.51 hours.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of respondents in a survey sample = 83

Mean number of hours worked per week = 39.04

Standard deviation = 11.51

Now, we'll calculate standard error of mean is given by

\sigma_\bar{x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{11.51}{\sqrt{83}}=1.26

95% of confidence interval is given by

\bar{x}\pm 1.96\sigma_{\bar{x}}\\\\39.04\pm 1.96\times 1.26\\\\39.04\pm 2.47\\\\\{41.51,36.57\}

Hence, we are 95% confidence that the respondents  are worked between 36.57 hours and 41.51 hours.

Hello! Although I can't give you the answers automatically. I'll just show you some steps on how to subtract & if you're still not figuring it out just message me! :)

Step 1: You have to make sure both denominators are both exactly the same or you won't get the answer correctly.

Step 2: Then subtract the numerators

Step 3: Simplify if needed.

Ex; If I have 1/2 of the pizza and my friend has 1/6 of the pizza. What will be my result if I subtract the fractions?

We'll have to take 1/2 and 1/6. You'll have to find what makes those numbers, what I mean is by multiplying both numerators and denominators.

\frac{1}{2}  -  \frac{1}{6}  =
You multiply by 3.
2 x 3 = 6

Then you'll change the denominator into 1/2 = 1/6

Result:
\frac{3}{6}  -    \frac{1}{6}  =
Then you just subtract.
3 - 1 = 2

Hint: Denominator never changes when you have your final result. So it's 2/6. It needs to be simplified.

\frac{2}{6}  \div  \frac{1}{3}
We divide by 2.

I hope this example helped you understand how to subtract fractions & if you don't know how to add mixed fractions you can always do around the world or other examples your teacher can provide! :)

Adam drew two same size rectangles and divided them into the same number of equal parts. He shaded 1/3 of one rectangle and 1/4
MArishka [77]

he divided each rectangle in 12 identical parts

for the first rectangle he shaded 1/3 of 12 = 4 parts

for the second rectangle he shaded 1/4 of 12= 3 parts


so 12= 3*4 leads to a minimum of 12 parts
