Past experience has indicated that the breaking strength of yarn used in manufacturing drapery material is normally distributed.

A random sample of 8 specimens is tested, and the breaking strength for each specimen is recorded. Assuming known population standard deviation, the width of a 95 percent confidence interval was found to be 2.694. What was the value of population standard deviation used in calculating the confidence interval?

Answer: the value of population standard deviation is 3.87

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given,

Number of sample, n = 8

For a confidence level of 95%, the corresponding z value is 1.96. This is determined from the normal distribution table.

We will apply the formula

Confidence interval

= mean ± z ×standard deviation/√n

Since confidence interval = 2.694,

It becomes

2.694 = 1.96 × standard deviation/√8

Dividing both sides of the equation by 1.96, it becomes

1.37 = standard deviation/√8

Standard deviation = 1.37 × √8

Standard deviation = 3.87

V=u + at
V - u = at divide both sides by
t
(V-u)/t =a

2/3x+5=1 what is the solution to the equation shown?
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

x = - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{2}{3} x + 5 = 1 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

\frac{2}{3} x = - 4

Multiply both sides by 3 to clear the fraction

2x = - 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = - 6
