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.

harina [27]

The frequency distribution based on the information given is illustrated below.

<h3>What is the frequency distribution of table?</h3>

A frequency distribution table is the

chart that summarizes all the data under two columns - variables/categories, and their frequency.

It should be noted that the distribution table has two or three columns and the first column lists all the outcomes as individual values or in the form of class intervals, depending upon the size of the data set.

Given the above information the frequency distribution table is:

Cost of living Number of states

85.0 - 94.9 9

95.0 - 104.9 5

105.0 - 114.9 0

115.0 - 124.9 2

125.0 - 134.9 2

135.0 - 144.9 1

145.0 - 154.9 1

Signals are digitized during transmissions over wireless networks. The chart lists possible features of digital communication.
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The correct features are;

2, 3, and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

2) Information carried by digital communication can be stored as digital information on electronic media such that they can be accessed with the aid of electronics and can be stored in a wide variety of recording formats including magnetic and optical media

3) Digital communication can be made over very long distance using serial communication. Fiber optics cables are used for transmitting information across continents using square waves which is a digital signal

4) Digital signals are less likely to be subjected to interference, distortion, and generation loss which is prone to analog signals, and therefore, there is less chance of signal loss when using digital communication.

nalin [4]

The correct answer is B. Stratified sampling is​ used since the field is divided into subplots and a random sample is taken from each subplot.

Explanation:

Sampling refers to the process followed by researchers to select a group of individuals from a larger group; considering in most studies it is not possible to analyze all the population. In the case of stratified sampling, this involves dividing the general population into smaller groups, which are known as strata; after this, the researcher selects a specific number of individuals from each strata. This method guarantees the sample is selected randomly, and therefore the study is not biased. Stratified sampling was the method used in the example described because, in this, the general population (46-acre field) was divided into subplots that represent the strata. Also, after this, the researcher selected one random sample.
