Given the recursive formula, each terms is five time the previous one.
This means that:
In general, since you have , each time you compute a new term you multiply by a factor of 5, so if
, you have
Answer:
The confidence interval on this case is given by:
(1)
For this case the confidence interval is given by (62.532, 76.478)[/tex]
And we can calculate the mean with this:
So then the mean for this case is 69.505
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.
Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".
A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".
represent the sample mean
population mean (variable of interest)
represent the population standard deviation
n represent the sample size
Assuming the X follows a normal distribution
The confidence interval on this case is given by:
(1)
For this case the confidence interval is given by (62.532, 76.478)[/tex]
And we can calculate the mean with this:
So then the mean for this case is 69.505
