A field test for a new exam was given to randomly selected seniors. The exams were graded, and the sample mean and sample standa

rd deviation were calculated. Based on the results, the exam creator claims that on the same exam, nine times out of ten, seniors will have an average score within 6% of 80%.
Is the confidence interval at 90%, 95%, or 99%?
What is the margin of error?
Calculate the confidence interval and explain what it means in terms of the situation.

So the fisrt thing we need to calculate is that 9 times out of 10 is 90% which will be the confidence interval. 
<span>Margin of error is 6% = .06 </span>
<span>Confidence interval is 80 +/- .06 = .74 to .86. or 74% to 86$ </span>
<span>In 9 times out of 10 the confidence interval for similar samples of seniors will contain the </span><span>true mean of the population of senior scores. </span>

Answer:

Margin of error: 6%; Confidence Interval Percentage: 90%; Confidence Interval: 74% and 86%

Step-by-step explanation:

Margin of error: 6%  --- This is already given in the question.  

Confidence interval is at 90%. 9/10=.90

The exam creator is saying that they are 90% confident that the seniors test scores will be between 74% and 86%.

0.8 - 0.06 = 0.74

0.8 + 0.06 = 0.86

The confidence interval is (0.74, 0.86)

If the lines are parallel with angle a measuring 5x + 8 and angle b measuring 8x - 7, the measure of angle a would be ___ degree
Mandarinka [93]

The value of angle a will be 33°.

It should be noted that when we've parallel lines, then the angles will be equal. In this case, the value of angle a will be equal to that of angle b and this will be:

5x + 8 = 8x - 7.

Collect like terms .

8x - 5x = 8 + 7

3x = 15

Divide both side by 3

3x/3 = 15/3

x = 5

Therefore, the value of angle a will be:

= 5x + 8

= 5(5) + 8

= 25° + 8°

= 33°

The measure of angle a is 33°.

A rectangular tank that is 2048 ft cubed with a square base and open top is to be constructed of sheet steel of a given thicknes
ira [324]

Answer:

The box should have base 16ft by 16ft and height 8ft Therefore,dimensions are 16 ft by 16 ft by 8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given the volume of the tank as, 2048 cubic feet.

Form minimum weight, the surface area must be minimum.

Let the height be h and the lengths be x

the volume will be: V=x²h then substitute the value of volume, we have

2048=hx²

hence

h=2048/x²

Since the amount of material used is directly proportional to the surface area, then the material needs to be minimized by minimizing the surface area.

The surface area of the box described is

A=x²+4xh

Then substitute h into the Area equation we have

A= x² + 4x(2048/x²)

A= x² + 8192/x

We want to minimize

A

dA/dx = -8192/x² + 2 x= 0 for max or min

when dA/dx=0

dA/dx= 2x-8192/x²=0

2x=8192/x²

Hence

2x³=8192

x³=4096

x=₃√(4096)

X=16ft

Then h=2048/x²

h=2048/16²

h=8ft

The box should have base 16ft by 16ft and height 8ft

Hence the dimensions are 16 ft by 16 ft by 8 ft
