Answer:

The 96% confidence interval for the mean number of ounces of ketchup per bottle in the sample is 24 ± 0.029

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Mean, x = 24 ounces

Standard deviation, σ = 0.2 ounces

Sample Size, n = 49 bottles of ketchup

Confidence Interval of 95% (0.95)

To calculate the confidence at this level, the following steps are to be followed;

1. Calculating degree of freedom:

Degree of freedom (df) is calculated by subtracting 1 from the sample size.

df = n - 1

df = 49 - 1

df = 48

2. Subtract the confidence level from 1, then divide by two.

α = (1 – .95) / 2 = 0.025

3. Look up the answers to (1) and (2) in the t-distribution table.

For 48 degrees of freedom (df) and α = 0.025,

We get 2.0106

4. Divide sample standard deviation by the square root of sample size.

i.e σ/√n

= 0.2/√49

= 0.2/7

= 0.02857

= 0.029

5. Finally, the 95% confidence interval is calculated using the following illustration.

X ± result in step 5

Where x = 24

So, we have

24 ± 0.029

Rewrite each fraction with a denominator of 10 7/2 3/5
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

  • \frac{7}{2}=\frac{35}{10}
  • \frac{3}{5}=\frac{6}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the fraction

\frac{7}{2}

Multiplying numerator and denominator by 5

\frac{7}{2}\times \frac{5}{5}

=\frac{35}{10}

Therefore,

  • \frac{7}{2}=\frac{35}{10}

Similarly,

Given the fraction

\frac{3}{5}

Multiplying numerator and denominator by 2

\:\frac{3}{5}\times \:\frac{2}{2}

\frac{3}{5}\times \:\frac{2}{2}=\frac{6}{10}

Therefore,

  • \frac{3}{5}=\frac{6}{10}

How can a ratio's number can be changed without changing the ratio itself
eimsori [14]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The ratio is a fraction that tells us how many times longer a thing is compared to another thing. In mathematics, we express a ratio as the relationship between two numbers, namely a \ and \ b, so the ratio can be written as:

r=\frac{a}{b}

If we can change this number without changing the ration we need to multiply  both the numerator and the denominator by the same number. For instance, if we have the following ratio:

r=\frac{2}{3}

We can multiply both the numerator and denominator, say, by 7. Then:

r=\frac{7\times 2}{7 \times 3}=\frac{14}{21}

As you can see, the ratio's number has changed but without changing the ratio itself because:

\frac{2}{3}=\frac{14}{21}

The diameter of the wheel is 22 inches what is the circumference of the world use 3.14 for pie
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

69.08 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference of the wheel

= 2 pi r

Given

Pi = 3.14

Radius r = diameter/2 = 22/2

= 11

Therefore

Circumference = 2 x 3.14 x 11

= 69.08 inches
