Answer:

95% Confidence interval for the variance:

3.6511\leq \sigma^2\leq 34.5972

95% Confidence interval for the standard deviation:

1.9108\leq \sigma \leq 5.8819

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate a 95% confidence interval for the standard deviation σ and the variance σ².

The sample, of size n=8, has a standard deviation of s=2.89 miles.

Then, the variance of the sample is

s^2=2.89^2=8.3521

The confidence interval for the variance is:

\dfrac{ (n - 1) s^2}{ \chi_{\alpha/2}^2} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \dfrac{ (n - 1) s^2}{\chi_{1-\alpha/2}^2}

The critical values for the Chi-square distribution for a 95% confidence (α=0.05) interval are:

\chi_{0.025}=1.6899\\\\\chi_{0.975}=16.0128

Then, the confidence interval can be calculated as:

\dfrac{ (8 - 1) 8.3521}{ 16.0128} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \dfrac{ (8 - 1) 8.3521}{1.6899}\\\\\\3.6511\leq \sigma^2\leq 34.5972

If we calculate the square root for each bound we will have the confidence interval for the standard deviation:

\sqrt{3.6511}\leq \sigma\leq \sqrt{34.5972}\\\\\\1.9108\leq \sigma \leq 5.8819

Find the area of the shaded region. With steps
Roman55 [17]

Answer: the area of the shaded region is 72.96 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the area of a circle is expressed as

Area = πr²

Where

r represents the radius of the circle.

π is a constant whose value is 3.14

From the information given,

Diameter of circle = 16 feet

Radius = diameter/2 = 16/2 = 8 feet

Area of circle = 3.14 × 8² = 200.96ft²

The sides of the square are equal. To determine the length of each side of the square, L, we would apply Pythagoras theorem which is expressed as

Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²

Therefore,

16² = L² + L²

256 = 2L²

L² = 256/2 = 128

L = √128 ft

Area of the square is

L² = (√128)²

Area = 128 ft²

Area of shaded region is

200.96 - 128 = 72.96 ft²

G A circle is a special case of an ellipse. Explain how a circle is different from other ellipses.
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Main difference between circle & ellipse

Step-by-step explanation:

Circle is a line forming a close loop, all points on the loop line are at equal distance from the centre, that distance is called Radius. Eg : Wheel

Ellipse is also a close loop line, such that distance of locus of all points on the plane to two fixed points (foci) always sum up to same constant. Eg : Orbits of planets
