Flura [38]

Answer:

a) The 99% confidence interval would be given by (589.588;731.038)

b) If we see the confidence interval the 620 is included on the interval we don't have enough evidence to reject the rating is 620. But since we need a score that at least 620 and our lower limit is 589.588 we cant conclude that all the clients would have a score that at least of 620.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The data is:

661 595 548 730 791 678 672 491 492 583 762 624 769 729 734 706

Part a

Compute the sample mean and sample standard deviation.  

In order to calculate the mean and the sample deviation we need to have on mind the following formulas:  

\bar X= \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{n}  

s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i-\bar X)}{n-1}}  

=AVERAGE(661, 595, 548, 730, 791, 678, 672, 491 ,492, 583, 762 ,624 ,769, 729, 734, 706)

On this case the average is \bar X= 660.313

=STDEV.S(661, 595, 548, 730, 791, 678, 672, 491 ,492, 583, 762 ,624 ,769, 729, 734, 706)

The sample standard deviation obtained was s=95.898

Find the critical value t* Use the formula for a CI to find upper and lower endpoints

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that our sample size n =16<30 and on this case we don't know about the population standard deviation, so on this case we need to use the t distribution. Since our interval is at 99% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.99=0.01 and \alpha/2 =0.005. The degrees of freedom are given by:

df=n-1=16-1=15

We can find the critical values in excel using the following formulas:

"=T.INV(0.005,15)" for t_{\alpha/2}=-2.95

"=T.INV(1-0.005,15)" for t_{1-\alpha/2}=2.95

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}  

And if we find the limits we got:

660.313- 2.95\frac{95.898}{\sqrt{16}}=589.588  

[tex]660.313+ 2.95\frac{95.898}{\sqrt{16}}=731.038/tex]  

So the 99% confidence interval would be given by (589.588;731.038)

Part b

If we see the confidence interval the 620 is included on the interval we don't have enough evidence to reject the rating is 620. But since we need a score that at least 620 and our lower limit is 589.588 we cant conclude that all the clients would have a score that at least of 620.

A right triangle is displayed.
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

You have to use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the other side, which will be your base in the Area formula (A=1/2bh). So the Pythagorean theorem would be 36^2 + b^2 = 60^2. This gives you 48 in for your base/missing side length. Then, you plug it into the area formula. So, A=1/2(48) (36). This gives you 864 in^2 for the area of your triangle.
