A random sample of 45 door-to-door salespersons were asked how long on average they were able to talk to the potential customer.

Their answers revealed a mean of 8.5 minutes with a variance of 9 minutes. Which Excel statements will construct a 95% confidence interval for the time it takes a salesperson to talk to a potential customer.
a.
=8.5+1.96*9/SQRT(45), and =8.5-1.96*9/SQRT(45)

b.
=8.5+1.96*3/SQRT(45), and =8.5-1.96*3/SQRT(45)

c.
=45+1.96*3/SQRT(9), and =45-1.96*3/SQRT(9)

d.
=45+0.95*3/SQRT(9), and =45-0.95*3/SQRT(9)

e.
None of the above.

Answer:

b.  =8.5+1.96*3/SQRT(45), and =8.5-1.96*3/SQRT(45)

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size (n) = 45

Sample mean (M) = 8.5 minutes

Variance (V) = 9 minutes

Z-score for a 95% confidence interval (z) = 1.96

A confidence interval is defined by the following expression:

M\pm z\sqrt{\frac{V}{n} }

Applying the given data:

8.5\pm 1.96\sqrt{\frac{9}{45} }\\8.5\pm 1.96\frac{3}{\sqrt 45}

Writing in Excel statements, the limits of the interval would be

=8.5+1.96*3/SQRT(45), and =8.5-1.96*3/SQRT(45)

Therefore, the answer is alternative b.

The dimensions of four rectangles are given below. Which has an area different from the area of each of the other three?
storchak [24]

To determine which of the rectangles has a different area, the areas of the four rectangles must be calculated. The rectangle with a different area is rectangle b

The dimension of the 4 rectangles are:

a. length: 4x and width: 4

b. length: 11 and width: x

c. length: 2 and width: 8x

d. length: 16x and width: 1

The area of a rectangle is:

Area = Length \times Width

<u>Rectangle (a)</u>

Area = 4x \times 4

Area = 16x

<u>Rectangle (b)</u>

Area = 11 \times x

Area = 11x

<u>Rectangle (c)</u>

Area = 2 \times 8x

Area = 16x

<u>Rectangle (d)</u>

Area = 16x \times 1

Area = 16x

Rectangles (a), (c) and (d) have the same area (i.e. 16x) while rectangle (b) has 11x as its area.

Hence, the rectangle with a different area is rectangle (b).
