On day two of a study on body temperatures, 106 temperatures were taken. Suppose that we only have the first 10 temperatures to

work with. The mean and standard deviation of these 10 temperatures were 98.44oF and 0.30oF, respectively. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean of all body temperatures.

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the mean of all body temperatures is between 97.76 ºF and 99.12 ºF

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 10 - 1 = 9

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 9 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975. So we have T = 2.2622

The margin of error is:

M = T*s = 2.2622*0.3 = 0.68

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 98.44 - 0.68 = 97.76 ºF

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 98.44 + 0.68 = 99.12 ºF

The 95% confidence interval for the mean of all body temperatures is between 97.76 ºF and 99.12 ºF

F(x)=2x an$ g(x)=2x+3,what is the value of f(g(-8))
Fudgin [204]

First plug in g(x) into f(x)

F((g(x))=2(2x+3)

And now you plug in -8

F(g(-8))=2(-16+3)

F(g(-8))=2(-13)

F(g(-8))=-26

Michael earns $900 per month, plus 5% commission on all his sales over $750. what is the minimum amount of sales Michael must ha
Alina [70]
<h3>The minimum amount of sales Michael must have to earn at least $2500 in a month is $ 32000</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>The expression to Michael earnings is:</u></em>

b + (c \times s)

Where,

b is the base salary, which is $ 900 in this sum

c is the commission rate

Given that commission rate is 5%

s is the sales

Michael must have to earn at least $2500 in a month

Here, at least means, "greater than or equal to" 2500

The inequality is framed as:

base salary + 5 % on sales \geq 2500

900 + \frac{5}{100} \times s \geq 2500\\\\\ 900 + 0.05s\geq 2500

Solve the inequality

0.05s\geq 2500-900\\\\0.05s \geq  1600\\\\Divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 0.05\\\\s\geq 32000

Thus, minimum amount of sales Michael must have to earn at least $2500 in a month is $ 32000

Write an equation in the form Ax+By =C, given that m=2/3 and y intercept is (0,-3) where A,B,C, are integers
Gnoma [55]

we are given

slope is

m=\frac{2}{3}

y-intercept is (0,-3)

b=-3

now, we can use slope intercept form of equation

y=mx+b

where

m is slope

b is y-intercept

now, we can plug these values

we get

y=\frac{2}{3}x-3

now, we have to write it in

Ax+By =C form

so, we will multiply both sides of equation by 3

3*y=3*\frac{2}{3}x-3*3

3y=2x-9

Subtract both sides by 2x

3y-2x=2x-9-2x

3y-2x=-9

-2x+3y=-9

so,

Answer is -2x+3y=-9
