A submarine started at 750 meters below sea level. It rose 50 meters per hour over a 4-hour period. Which expression represents

Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

$y(t) = 750 -50t$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to model the position of the submarine as a function of time.

Notice that we have a constant amount. The initial depth: 750 meters

Then we have a factor that varies over time. Every hour the submarine ascends 50 meters. therefore as t increases the depth y(t) of the submarine decreases. Then the factor is:

-50t.

Where t represents the time in hours.

Then the equation that represents the new position of the submarine in relation to the level of the sea:

$y(t) = 750 -50t$

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval would be given by (58.373;65.627)

We are 99% confident that the true mean for the variable of interest is between 58.373 and 65.627.

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".

$\bar X=62$ represent the sample mean

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s=8 represent the sample standard deviation

n=36 represent the sample size

Part a: Confidence interval

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:

$df=n-1=36-1=35$

Since the Confidence is 0.99 or 99%, the value of $\alpha=0.01$ and $\alpha/2 =0.005$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.005,35)".And we see that $t_{\alpha/2}=2.72$
