A cereal manufacturer is concerned that the boxes of cereal not be under filled or overfilled.
Each box of cereal is supposed to contain 13 ounces of cereal.
A random sample of 31 boxes is tested.
The average weight is 12.58 ounces and the standard deviation is 0.25 ounces.
Sample mean = 12.58
Sample std deviation = 0.25
Sample size = 31
Sample std error =
confidence interval can be calculated using t critical value because population sd is not known.
df = 30
t critical for two tailed = 1.697
Margin of error =
conidence interval =
Since this does not contain 13 oz. we reject the claim that each box contains exactly 13 oz.

Answer:
15p
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Let's interpret the question bit by bit</u>
<em>Salvador wrote 15 letters to friends each month</em>
=> 15 letters = 1 month
<em />
<em>For p months in a row</em>
let the total number of letters for p months be x
=> x letters = p months
<em>Bringing the two statements together gives;</em>
15 letters = 1 month
x letters = p months
<em>Now, let's solve for </em><em>x </em><em>by cross-multiplying the above</em>
x letters * 1 month = 15 letters * p months
x =
x = 15p letters
Therefore, Salvador wrote a total of 15p letters for the p months.
