(CO6) Which of the following is most likely to lead to a small margin of error?

small mean
large sample size
small standard deviation
large maximum error

3.

(CO6) A company making refrigerators strives for the internal temperature to have a mean of 37.5 degrees with a standard deviation of 0.6 degrees, based on samples of 100. A sample of 100 refrigerators have an average temperature of 37.53 degrees. Are the refrigerators within the 90% confidence interval?

No, the temperature is outside the confidence interval of (36.90, 38.10)
Yes, the temperature is within the confidence interval of (37.40, 37.60)
No, the temperature is outside the confidence interval of (37.40, 37.60)
Yes, the temperature is within the confidence interval of (36.90, 38.10)

Answer:

(1) (4.82, 4.98)

(2) Large sample size

(3) Yes, the temperature is within the confidence interval of (37.40, 37.60)

(4) (15.083, 15.117)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval (CI) = mean + or - (t×sd)/√n

(1) mean = 4.9, sd = 0.35, n = 68, degree of freedom = n-1 = 68 - 1 = 67

t-value corresponding to 67 degrees of freedom and 95% confidence level is 1.9958

CI = 4.9 + (1.9958×0.35)/√68 = 4.98

CI = 4.9 - (1.9958×0.35)/√68 = 4.82

CI is (4.82, 4.98)

(2) Error margin = (t-value × standard deviation)/√sample size

From the formula above, error margin varies inversely as the square root of the sample size. Since the relationship between the error margin and sample size is inverse, increase in one (sample size) will conversely lead to a decrease in the other (error margin)

(3) mean = 37.5, sd = 0.6, n= 100, degree of freedom = n-1 = 100-1 = 99

t-value corresponding to 99 degrees of freedom and 90% confidence level is 1.6602

CI = 37.5 + (1.6602×0.6)/√100 = 37.5 + 0.10 = 37.60

CI = 37.5 - (1.6602×0.6)/√100 = 37.5 - 0.10 = 37.40

37.53 is within the confidence interval (37.40, 37.60)

(4) mean = 15.10, sd =0.08, n = 104, degree of freedom = n-1 = 104-1 = 103

t-value corresponding to 103 degrees of freedom and 97% confidence interval is 2.2006

CI = 15.10 + (2.2006×0.08)/√104 = 15.10 + 0.017 = 15.117

CI = 15.10 - (2.2006×0.08)/√104 = 15.10 - 0.017 = 15.083

CI is (15.083, 15.117)

The eqution of the diagonal of a parallelogram is 3y=5x +k. The two opposite vertices of a parallelogram are the points (1,-2),
astraxan [27]

Answer:

k = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3y = 5x + k

Opposite points: (1,-2) and (-2,1)

Required

Find k

First, calculate the midpoint of the opposite points.

(x,y) = 0.5(x_1 + x_2,y_1 + y_2)

This gives:

(x,y) = 0.5(1 -2,-2 + 1)

(x,y) = 0.5(-1,-1)

Open bracket

(x,y) = (-0.5,-0.5)

The equation 3y = 5x + k becomes:

3 * -0.5 = 5 * -0.5 + k

-1.5 = -2.5 + k

Solve for k

k = 2.5-1.5

k = 1
