Answer:

(71.28, 78.72)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following information from the statement:

mean (m) = 75

sample standard deviation (sd) = 5

Sample size (n) = 13

Significance level (alpha) = 1 - 0.98 = 0.02

Degrees of freedom for t-d (df) = n - 1 = 13 - 1 = 12

The critical value would be:

t (alpha / 2) / df = T (0.01) / 12 = 2,681 (this for the table)

Margin of error equals:

E = t (alpha / 2) / df * sd / n ^ (1/2), replacing:

E = 2,681 * 5/13 ^ (1/2)

E = 3.72

Therefore, the interval of 98% confidence interval would be:

75 + 3.72 = 78.72

75 - 3.72 = 71.28

A football team won 8 more games than they lost. They played 24 games in the season. How many games were won and how many were l
Vaselesa [24]

The team lost n games.

The team won 8 more games than it lost, so it won n + 8.

The total number of games the team played was n + n + 8, or 2n + 8.

The team played a total of 24 games, so

2n + 8 = 24

We now solve for n.

2n + 8 = 24

2n = 16

n = 8 (lost games)

n + 8 = 8 + 8 = 16 (won games)

Answer: The team won 16 games and lost 8 games.
