We have a sample of 28 data points. The sample mean is 30.0 and the sample standard deviation is 2.40. The confidence level required is 98%. Then, we calculate α by:

The confidence interval for the population mean, given the sample mean μ and the sample standard deviation σ, can be calculated as:
![CI(\mu)=\lbrack x-Z_{1-\frac{\alpha}{2}}\cdot\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt[]{n}},x+Z_{1-\frac{\alpha}{2}}\cdot\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt[]{n}}\rbrack](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=CI%28%5Cmu%29%3D%5Clbrack%20x-Z_%7B1-%5Cfrac%7B%5Calpha%7D%7B2%7D%7D%5Ccdot%5Cfrac%7B%5Csigma%7D%7B%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7Bn%7D%7D%2Cx%2BZ_%7B1-%5Cfrac%7B%5Calpha%7D%7B2%7D%7D%5Ccdot%5Cfrac%7B%5Csigma%7D%7B%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7Bn%7D%7D%5Crbrack)
Where n is the sample size, and Z is the z-score for 1 - α/2. Using the known values:
![CI(\mu)=\lbrack30.0-Z_{0.99}\cdot\frac{2.40}{\sqrt[]{28}},30.0+Z_{0.99}\cdot\frac{2.40}{\sqrt[]{28}}\rbrack](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=CI%28%5Cmu%29%3D%5Clbrack30.0-Z_%7B0.99%7D%5Ccdot%5Cfrac%7B2.40%7D%7B%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B28%7D%7D%2C30.0%2BZ_%7B0.99%7D%5Ccdot%5Cfrac%7B2.40%7D%7B%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B28%7D%7D%5Crbrack)
Where (from tables):

Finally, the interval at 98% confidence level is:
Answer:
1:500000
Step-by-step explanation:
1 mm (map) equals 500 m (actual) .
Let's convert 500 m to mm.
1m = 1000mm
500m = 500000 mm
So 1mm to 500000mm on a scale is
1:500000
So it's all about converting the metre to million metre then doing the ratio.
In this case we are not to divide anything because it's already in 1.
So it's 1mm on paper then 500000mm on actual.
Thank you
the answer would be y = 2x + 1
Answer:
13 in
Step-by-step explanation:
It’s a right triangle, so use the Pythagorean Theorem.
12²+5²=c²
144+25=c²
169=c²
√169=c
13=c
(5 + x) / 6 = -1....multiply both sides by 6, cancelling out the 6 on the left side
5 + x = -1 * 6
5 + x = -6
x = -6 - 5
x = -11
