You are interested in finding a 90% confidence interval for the average commute that non-residential students have to their coll

ege. The data below show the number of commute miles for 11 randomly selected non-residential college students. Round answers to 3 decimal places where possible.
25 21 26 6 25 14 26 24 7 10 14
a. To compute the confidence interval use a distribution.

Answer:

<em>a)  90 % of confidence interval is determined by</em>

<em></em>(x^{-} -t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} +t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } )<em></em>

<em>b) The 90% confidence intervals for the population mean </em>

(13.6572 , 22.3428)

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step(i):</u>-

Given data

Non residential  college students  25 21 26 6 25 14 26 24 7 10 14

Mean of   Non residential  college students

    x⁻  = ∑x/n

          = \frac{25+21+26+6+25+14+26+24+7+10+14}{11}

   x⁻ = 18

now

Non residential

college students 'x'  : 25    21     26   6      25    14    26   24     7    10    14

       x - x⁻                  :   7      3       8   -12      7     -4     8      6     -11   -8    -4

     (x-x⁻)²                  :    49   9      64  144    49    16    64   36   121   64    16

s^{2} = \frac{49+9+64+144+49+16+64+36+121+64+16 }{11-1}

S² = 63.2

S = √63.2 = 7.949

<u><em>Step(ii)</em></u>:-

<em>The 90% confidence the population mean commute for non-residential college students is between and miles.</em>

<em></em>(x^{-} -t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} +t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } )<em></em>

<em>Degrees of freedom </em>

<em>ν =n-1 =11-1 = 10</em>

<em>t </em>t_{\frac{0.10}{2} } = t_{0.05} = 1.812<em></em>

<u><em>Step(iii):-</em></u>

<em>The 90% confidence the population mean commute for non-residential college students is between and miles.</em>

<em></em>(x^{-} -t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} +t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } )<em></em>

<em></em>((18- 1.812 \frac{7.949}{\sqrt{11} } , (18-+1.812 \frac{7.949}{\sqrt{11} })<em></em>

(18 - 4.3428 , 18 + 4.3428)

(13.6572 , 22.3428)

<u><em>Conclusion</em></u><em>:-</em>

<em>The 90% confidence the population mean commute for non-residential college students is between and miles.</em>

(13.6572 , 22.3428)

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

96 * 144 - 168 * 42

Step-by-step explanation:

So the area of the wall is 96 * 144

And the area of the tiled part is 168 * 42

So it would be 96 * 144 - 168 * 42

Least the containers from least to greatest capacity; 1.73, 2.061, 1.59, 2.1
RSB [31]

Answer:

1.59 < 1.73 < 2.061 < 2.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

We know that 2 is higher than 1. So to pick the first ones we know it won't be the two numbers starting with a 2. We are left with two numbers : 1.73 and 1.59. <u>In this case we can multiply these two numbers by 100. We are allowed to do this only if we do it to all the numbers we are trying to figure out.</u> In this case, it is 1.73 and 1.59 (we are excluding the 2s). So we end up with : 173 and 159. This might help you. We obviously know that 173 is a larger number than 159.

So, we then proceed to the numbers starting with a 2. <u>In this case we can multiply both by 1,000 considering the fact that the number 2.061 has 3 digits after the dot.</u> This will make it easier for us. When we multiply both by 1,000 we end up with 2,061 and 2,100. We obviously know that 2,061 is smaller than 2,100.

I hope this helped

Kind regards,
