A study was conducted to determine if the salaries of librarians from two neighboring cities were equal. A sample of 15 libraria

ns from each city was randomly selected. The mean from the first city was $28,900 with a standard deviation of $2300. The mean from the second city was $30,300 with a standard deviation of $2100. Construct a 95% confidence interval for u1 -u2.
a) (-4081, 597)
b) (-2054, 238)
c) (-2871, 567)
d) (-3125, 325)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the confidence interval for the difference of two population means is expressed as

Confidence interval = (x1 - x2) ± z√(s²/n1 + s2²/n2)

Where

x1 = sample mean salary of city 1 librarians

x2 = sample mean salary of city 2 librarians

s1 = sample standard deviation for city 1

s2 = sample standard deviation for city 2

n1 = number of soles for city 1

n1 = number of soles for city 2

For a 95% confidence interval, we would determine the z score from the t distribution table because the number of samples are small

Degree of freedom =

(n1 - 1) + (n2 - 1) = (15 - 1) + (15 - 1) = 28

z = 2.048

x1 - x2 = 28,900 - 30,300 = - 1400

Margin of error = 2.048√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2) = 2.036√(2300²/15 + 2100²/15)

= 1647

The upper boundary for the confidence interval is

- 1400 + 1647 = 247

The lower boundary for the confidence interval is

- 1400 - 1647 = - 3047

The price of an electronic puzzle was reduced be $7
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

total price was reduced by $ 7

let x = the total price........ x - 7

he bought 10.....and it cost him $ 130

10(x - 7) = 130

10x - 70 = 130

10x = 130 + 70

10x = 200

x = 200/10

x = 20 <====== original price

Find the slope of the line please help
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug 2 points into the equation y2-y1/x2-x1. In this case, I picked (0,-1) and (1,-1). This will make the equation -1--1/1-0. Simplify this to get 0/1 which is equal to 0. Therefore, the slope is 0.

An expression is shown.
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

3x + y - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Like Terms</u>: In algebra, like terms are terms that have the same variables and powers.

To simplify this expression and get an expression that is eual to 5x + 3y - 2x - 2y - 3 I used <em>like terms</em> :

(5x - 2x) + (3y - 2y)

(5x - 2x = <em>3x</em>) + (3y - 2y = <em>1y or y</em>)

3x + y

Then we add the <em>- 3 </em>at the end giving us:

<u><em>3x + y - 3</em></u>

A triangle has the side lengths 5,7 and 11
Assoli18 [71]

To solve this problem you use the "Triangle Inequality Theorem" it states that: any side of a triangle is always shorter than the sum of the other two sides. 

Using this theorem we check each side 

5+7=12: this is greater than the other side which is 11, so this works 

11+7= 18: this is greater than the other side which is 5, so this works 

5 + 11= 16: this is greater that the other side which is 7, so this works
