Answer:

$654.16-2.02\frac{165.23}{\sqrt{42}}=602.66$

$654.16+2.02\frac{165.23}{\sqrt{42}}=705.66$

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (602.66;705.66)

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

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".

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".

$\bar X=654.16$ represent the sample mean

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s=165.23 represent the sample standard deviation

n=42 represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

In order to calculate the critical value $t_{\alpha/2}$ we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

$df=n-1=42-1=41$

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.025,41)".And we see that $t_{\alpha/2}=2.02$

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

$654.16-2.02\frac{165.23}{\sqrt{42}}=602.66$

$654.16+2.02\frac{165.23}{\sqrt{42}}=705.66$

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (602.66;705.66)

The angle θ lies in Quadrant II .

let's keep in mind that, in the II Quadrant, cosine is negative and sine, is positive.

cosine is adjacent/hypotenuse, however the hypotenuse is simply a radius unit, and thus is never negative, so in the -(2/3) the negative must be the numerator, -2.

$\bf cos(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{adjacent}{-2}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{3}}\impliedby \textit{let's find the \underline{opposite side}} \\\\\\ \textit{using the pythagorean theorem} \\\\ c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \sqrt{c^2-a^2}=b \qquad \begin{cases} c=hypotenuse\\ a=adjacent\\ b=opposite\\ \end{cases} \\\\\\ \pm\sqrt{3^2-(-2)^2}=b\implies \pm\sqrt{5}=b\implies \stackrel{\textit{II Quadrant}}{+\sqrt{5}=b}~\hfill tan(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{\sqrt{5}}}{\stackrel{adjacent}{-2}} \\\\\\ ~\hspace{34em}$
