Rodell wants to find the favorite gaming app among the students at his school. He decides to poll the thirty students

The first term(a1) is 3
The second term (a2) is obtained by multiplying 3*(-5)
The third term A3 by multiplying 3 * -5 -5 = a2 times -5
Than you go on and one with that
But your answer is
A1=3;an+1=an(-5)

The question is incomplete! Complete question along with answer and step by step explanation is provided below.

Question:

The attached Excel file 2013 NCAA BB Tournament shows the salaries paid to the coaches of 62 of the 68 teams in the 2013 NCAA basketball tournament (not all private schools report their coach's salaries). Consider these 62 salaries to be a sample from the population of salaries of all 346 NCAA Division I basketball coaches.

Question 1. Use the 62 salaries from the TOTAL PAY column to construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean salary of all basketball coaches in NCAA Division I.

xbar = $1,465,752

SD = $1,346,046.2

lower bound of confidence interval ________

upper bound of confidence interval _______

Question 2. Coach Mike Krzyzewski's high salary is an outlier and could be significantly affecting the confidence interval results. Remove Coach Krzyzewski's salary from the data and recalculate the 95% confidence interval using the remaining 61 salaries.

xbar = $1,371,191

SD = $1,130,666.5

lower bound of confidence interval _________

upper bound of confidence interval. ________

Answer:

Question 1:

lower bound of confidence interval = $1,124,027

upper bound of confidence interval = $1,807,477

Question 2:

lower bound of confidence interval = $1,081,512

upper bound of confidence interval = $1,660,870

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 1:

The sample mean salary of 62 couches is

$\bar{x} = 1,465,752$

The standard deviation of mean salary is

$s = 1,346,046.2$

The confidence interval for the mean salary of all basketball coaches is given by

$CI = \bar{x} \pm t_{\alpha/2}(\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } )$

Where $\bar{x}$ is the sample mean, n is the sample size, s is the sample standard deviation and $t_{\alpha/2}$ is the t-score corresponding to a 95% confidence level.

The t-score corresponding to a 95% confidence level is

Significance level = α = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

Degree of freedom = n - 1 = 62 - 1 = 61

From the t-table at α = 0.025 and DoF = 61

t-score = 1.999

So the required 95% confidence interval is

$CI = \bar{x} \pm t_{\alpha/2}(\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } ) \\\\CI = 1,465,752 \pm 1.999 \cdot (\frac{1,346,046.2}{\sqrt{62} } ) \\\\CI = 1,465,752 \pm 1.999 \cdot (170948.04 ) \\\\CI = 1,465,752 \pm 341,725 \\\\LCI = 1,465,752 - 341,725 = 1,124,027 \\\\UCI = 1,465,752 + 341,725 = 1,807,477\\\\$

Question 2:

After removing the Coach Krzyzewski's salary from the data

The sample mean salary of 61 couches is

$\bar{x} = 1,371,191$

The standard deviation of the mean salary is

$s = 1,130,666.5$

The t-score corresponding to a 95% confidence level is

Significance level = α = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

Degree of freedom = n - 1 = 61 - 1 = 60

From the t-table at α = 0.025 and DoF = 60

t-score = 2.001

So the required 95% confidence interval is

$CI = \bar{x} \pm t_{\alpha/2}(\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } ) \\\\CI = 1,371,191 \pm 2.001 \cdot (\frac{1,130,666.5}{\sqrt{61} } ) \\\\CI = 1,371,191 \pm 2.001 \cdot (144767 ) \\\\CI = 1,371,191 \pm 289,678.8 \\\\LCI = 1,371,191 - 289,678.8 = 1,081,512 \\\\UCI = 1,371,191 + 289,678.8 = 1,660,870\\\\$

A track team has 4 runners on a relay team. If by coincidence each runner takes an average of 45.48 seconds to complete her leg

musickatia [10]

Answer:

181.92 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

Time taken by each person in the team = 45.48 seconds

Number of members in the team = 4

It is required to find the total time taken by the team to finish the race.

Thus, the time taken taken = 4 × 45.48 = 181.92 seconds

Hence. the team finished the race in 72.4 seconds.
