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

Help me.A towns population went from 25,800 people to 48,200 people in ten years. What is the percent
solong [7]

The percent increase in population is: 87%

Further explanation:

The percent change is given by:

Percent\ increase=\frac{Increase}{Original\ number}*100

Given

Population before 10 years = 25800 people

Population after 10 years= 48200 people

Increase=48200-25800=22400\ people

Putting the values in the formula:

Percent\ Increase=\frac{22400}{25800}*100\\=0.8682*100\\=86.82\%\\Rounding\ off\ to\ nearest\ percent\\87\%

The percent increase in population is: 87%

Are the graphs of −5y=2x+3 and y=25x+4 parallel, perpendicular, or neither?
saw5 [17]
Parallel graphs have the same slope. perpendicular has opposite reciprocal slopes. These equations have slopes of -2/5 and 25 so they are neither.
