Answer:

13/4 - (13,4) - however your teacher wants you to write it out.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rise (y) over Run (x)

Equation:

y2 - y1

over

x2 - x1

Inputting the numbers, 6 - -7 (aka 6+7) over -3 - -7 (aka -3+7)

6+7 = 13

-3+7 = 4

13/4 - The line is rising moving towards the right.

Answer:

A 95% confidence interval for the mean number of chips in a bag of Chips Ahoy Cookies is [1187.96, 1288.44].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that statistics students at the Air Force Academy (no kidding) purchased some randomly selected bags of cookies and counted the chocolate chips.

Some of their data are given below; 1219, 1214, 1087, 1200, 1419, 1121, 1325, 1345, 1244, 1258, 1356, 1132, 1191, 1270, 1295, 1135.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for finding the confidence interval for the population mean is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ $t_n_-_1$

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean number of chocolate chips = $\frac{\sum X}{n}$ = 1238.2

s = sample standard deviation = $\sqrt{\frac{\sum (X-\bar X)^{2} }{n-1} }$ = 94.3

n = sample of car drivers = 16

$\mu$ = population mean number of chips in a bag

Here for constructing a 95% confidence interval we have used a One-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about population standard deviation.

So, 95% confidence interval for the population mean, $\mu$ is ;

P(-2.131 < $t_1_5$ < 2.131) = 0.95 {As the critical value of t at 15 degrees of
