-14.88 because 16% of 31 is 4.96 and 4.96 times 3 is 14.88

The altitude of an equilateral triangle is 15. What is the length of each side?

Bogdan [553]

An equilateral triangle is a triangle where all sides are of equal lengths. So, the angles are of equal values as well which is 60. We use the angle and the height of the triangle to determine the side length. We do as follows:

tan (60) = 15 / base/2
base = 10√3 = side length

A simple random sample of size n is drawn from a population that is normally distributed. The sample mean, x overbar, is found

joja [24]

Answer:

(a) 80% confidence interval for the population mean is [109.24 , 116.76].

(b) 80% confidence interval for the population mean is [109.86 , 116.14].

(c) 98% confidence interval for the population mean is [105.56 , 120.44].

(d) No, we could not have computed the confidence intervals in parts (a)-(c) if the population had not been normally distributed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a simple random sample of size n is drawn from a population that is normally distributed.

The sample mean is found to be 113 and the sample standard deviation is found to be 10.

(a) The sample size given is n = 13.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for 80% confidence interval for the population mean is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ $t_n_-_1$

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean = 113

s = sample standard deviation = 10

n = sample size = 13

$\mu$ = population mean

Here for constructing 80% confidence interval we have used One-sample t test statistics as we don't know about population standard deviation.

So, 80% confidence interval for the population mean, $\mu$ is ;

P(-1.356 < $t_1_2$ < 1.356) = 0.80 {As the critical value of t at 12 degree

of freedom are -1.356 & 1.356 with P = 10%}

P(-1.356 < $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < 1.356) = 0.80

P( $-1.356 \times }{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < ${\bar X-\mu}$ < $1.356 \times }{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.80

P( $\bar X-1.356 \times }{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < $\mu$ < $\bar X+1.356 \times }{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.80

80% confidence interval for $\mu$ = [ $\bar X-1.356 \times }{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ , $\bar X+1.356 \times }{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ]

= [ $113-1.356 \times }{\frac{10}{\sqrt{13} } }$ , $113+1.356 \times }{\frac{10}{\sqrt{13} } }$ ]

= [109.24 , 116.76]

Therefore, 80% confidence interval for the population mean is [109.24 , 116.76].

(b) Now, the sample size has been changed to 18, i.e; n = 18.

So, the critical values of t at 17 degree of freedom would now be -1.333 & 1.333 with P = 10%.

80% confidence interval for $\mu$ = [ $\bar X-1.333 \times }{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ , $\bar X+1.333 \times }{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ]

= [ $113-1.333 \times }{\frac{10}{\sqrt{18} } }$ , $113+1.333 \times }{\frac{10}{\sqrt{18} } }$ ]

= [109.86 , 116.14]

Therefore, 80% confidence interval for the population mean is [109.86 , 116.14].

(c) Now, we have to construct 98% confidence interval with sample size, n = 13.

So, the critical values of t at 12 degree of freedom would now be -2.681 & 2.681 with P = 1%.

98% confidence interval for $\mu$ = [ $\bar X-2.681 \times }{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ , $\bar X+2.681 \times }{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ]

= [ $113-2.681 \times }{\frac{10}{\sqrt{13} } }$ , $113+2.681 \times }{\frac{10}{\sqrt{13} } }$ ]

= [105.56 , 120.44]

Therefore, 98% confidence interval for the population mean is [105.56 , 120.44].

(d) No, we could not have computed the confidence intervals in parts (a)-(c) if the population had not been normally distributed because t test statistics is used only when the data follows normal distribution.

Ok -7-7=-14 because your subtracting a negative with a negative and then it will be a negative then if you multiply a negative and a negative it will be a positive
