Use the confidence level and sample data to find a confidence interval for estimating the population mu. Round your answer to th

e same number of decimal places as the sample mean. 37 packages are randomly selected from packages received by a parcel service. The sample has a mean weight of 10.3 pounds and a standard deviation of 2.4 pounds. What is the 95% confidence interval for the true mean weight, mu, of all packages received by the parcel service?
a. 9.6 lb < mu < 11.0 lb.
b. 9.4 lb < mu < 11.2 lb.
c. 9.5 lb < mu < 11.1 lb.
d. 9.3 lb< mu < 11.3 lb .

Answer:

c. 9.5 lb < mu < 11.1 lb.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be stated as M±ME where

  • M is the sample mean (10.3)
  • ME is the margin of error

margin of error (ME) around the mean can be calculated using the formula

ME=\frac{z*s}{\sqrt{N} } where

  • z is the corresponding statistic in 95% confidence level (1.96)
  • s is the standard deviation of the sample (2.4)
  • N is the sample size (37)

Putting thesenumbers in the formula we get:

ME=\frac{1.96*2.4}{\sqrt{37} } ≈ 0.7733 ≈ 0.8

Then the 95% confidence interval would be 10.3 ± 0.8

Adam’s sister wants to watch her intake of fat per day. He estimates that the dinner will have 48 grams of fat. What percentage
navik [9.2K]
First things to take note of to have the correct answer: 
1. Adam's sister is obviously a girl. Then when looking at the data we look at the "Women" column. 
2. We are only looking at the fats data. 

We are asked for the percentage given 48 grams of fat and the daily allowance on fat for women is 70 g. To solve we perform the operation: 

% =  \frac{70-48}{70} * 100 = 31.42% ≈ 31%

The set of ordered pairs represents a
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

The rule that represents the function is y=x^2+1 therefore the function is f(x)=x^2+1

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 5 ordered pairs in the plane xy. This means that <em>every pair has the form (x, y).</em>

Then, we have 5 values of x, which will give us 5 values of y, using the rule that represents the function.

<u>The easy evaluation is that when x=0, the value of y is y=1,</u> and then we can evaluate the rule for x=-1, and x=1, <em>the value of y is the same, y=2</em>. We can see here that we have a parabolic function, that is not centered in the origin of coordinates because when x=0, y=1.

So <u>we propose the rule </u>y=x^2+1<u> which is correct for the first 3 values of x.</u>

Now, <em>we evaluate the proposed rule when x=2, and when x=3</em>. This evaluations can be written as

f(2)=2^2+1=5

f(3)=3^2+1=10

Therefore, the rule is correct, and the function is

f(x)=x^2+1

Assume that 2 cards are drawn from a standard 52-card deck. Find the following probabilities.
topjm [15]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

WITHOUT replacement of first card drawn:

P(a 10 is drawn) = 13/52 = 1/4

P(the next draw is a 10) = 12/52 = 3/13

P(drawing two 10s without replacement of the first draw) = (1/4)(3/13) = 3/52

WITH replacement of first card:

P(two 10s are drawn) = P(first card is a 10)*P(first card is a 10) = (4/13)(4/13) =
