Michmoo Computer Company sells computers and computer parts by mail. The company assures its customers that products are mailed

Anastaziya [24]

Answer: (60.858, 69.142)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the confidence interval for mean :

$\overline{x}\pm z_c\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ , where $\overline{x}$ is the sample mean , $\sigma$ is the population standard deviation , n is the sample size and $z_c$ is the two-tailed test value for z.

Let x represents the time taken to mail products for all orders received at the office of this company.

As per given , we have

Confidence level : 95%

n= 62

sample mean : $\overline{x}=65$ hours

Population standard deviation : $\sigma=18$ hours

z-value for 93% confidence interval: $z_c=1.8119$ [using z-value table]

Now, 93% confidence the mean time taken to mail products for all orders received at the office of this company :-

$65\pm (1.8119)\dfrac{18}{\sqrt{62}}\\\\ 65\pm4.142\\\\=(65-4.142,\ 65+4.142)\\\\= (60.858,\ 69.142)$

Thus , 93% confidence the mean time taken to mail products for all orders received at the office of this company : (60.858, 69.142)

3x+3y=180 what is the answer to this problem

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

If you are solving the equation for x :

3x + 3y = 180

3x = -3y + 180

x = -y + 60 or x = 60 - y

If you are solving the equation for y:

3x + 3y = 180

3y = -3x + 180

y = -x + 60 or y = 60 - x
