Answer:

(38.1,88.6)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample mean, \bar{x} = 38.3

Sample size, n = 695

Alpha, α = 0.05

Population standard deviation, σ = 3.6

95% Confidence interval:

\mu \pm z_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Putting the values, we get,

z_{critical}\text{ at}~\alpha_{0.05} = 1.96

38.3 \pm 1.96(\frac{3.6}{\sqrt{695}} ) = 38.3 \pm 0.267 = (38.033,38.567) \approx (38.1,88.6)

The red Maserati traveled at a speed of 120km/h for 5 hours one day. The green Ford Pickup traveled at a speed of 74km/h for 6 h
ehidna [41]

Answer:

156km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

The red Maserati traveled at a speed of 120km/h for 5 hours one day.

Distance = speed*time

Distance= 120*5

Distance= 600km

The green Ford Pickup traveled at a speed of 74km/h for 6 hours

Distance = speed*time

Distance= 74*6

Distance= 444km

Hence the difference is

=600-444

=156km

A grab bag contains 8 football cards and 2 basketball cards. an experiment consists of taking one card out of the bag, replacing
Vaselesa [24]
The events are independent...because after the first pick, the card was replaced...that means the second pick has the same sample space. In other words, the first pick is not gonna affect the 2nd pick

8 football, 2 basketball...total of 10

P(1st pick is football) = 8/10 which reduces to 4/5
replace
P(2nd pick is basketball) = 2/10 which reduces to 1/5

P (both) = 4/5 * 1/5 = 4/25 = 0.16 <==
