The width of a confidence interval is defined to be the upper bound of the confidence interval minus the lower bound of the conf

idence interval. For example, if a confidence interval is (−2.34,9.87), then the width of this confidence interval is 9.87−(−2.34)=12.21. Assume that we are estimating the mean of a population. Assuming that the confidence coefficient, the sample mean and sample standard deviation stay the same, if we decrease the the sample size of a confidence interval from 100 to 50, then the width of that confidence interval will also decrease.True or False?

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Steps in calculating confidence Interval are

  1. Calculate degree of freedom by subtracting 1 from sample size that is df=sample size -1
  2. find α by subtracting confidence interval level from 1 and divide by 2
  3. Use value ot α and df to determine t from t-distribution table. From table it can be seen that the value of t increases as value of df decreases
  4. Divide standard distribution by square root of sample size. As sample size decreases this value will increase
  5. Multiple step 3 by step 4. We can say, if sample size is decreased this value will increase.
  6. For lower end , subtract step 5 from sample mean and for upper end add step 5 to sample mean.

If sample size is decrased, step 3 and step 4 will increase. As a result result obtained from step 5 will also increase. Hence, confidence interval will increase if sample size is decreased

using the giving information to write an equation. let X represent the number described in the exercise.then solve the equation
ANEK [815]
A number is multiplied by 8 and the result is 28.

A number= x.

8(x)= 28

Divide both sides by 8.

28/8= 3.5

x= 3.5

Would you need to use the chain rule to find the derivative of this function?
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

TRUE. We need to use the chain rule to find the derivative of the given function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Chain rule to find the derivative,

We have to find the derivative of F(x)

If F(x) = f[g(x)]

Then F'(x) = f'[g(x)].g'(x)

Given function is,

y = \sqrt{2x+3}

Here g(x) = (2x + 3)

and f[g(x)] = \sqrt{2x+3}

\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{d}{dx}(\sqrt{2x+3}).\frac{d}{dx} (2x+3)

y' = \frac{1}{2}(2x+3)^{(1-\frac{1}{2})}.(2)

   = (2x+3)^{-\frac{1}{2}}

y' = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2x+3}}

Therefore, it's true that we need to use the chain rule to find the derivative of the given function.
