An important factor in selling a residential property is the number of people who look through the home. A sample of 17 homes re

cently sold in the Buffalo, New York, area revealed the mean number looking through each home was 19 and the standard deviation of the sample was 4 people.

Answer:

Confidence interval for the population mean is between 15 homes and 19 homes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Sample (n) = 17 homes, mean (μ) = 19 homes, standard deviation (σ)= 4 people and confidence (C) = 98% = 0.98

α = 1 - C = 1 - 0.98 = 0.02

α/2 = 0.02/2 = 0.01.

The z score of 0.01 (α/2) corresponds to the z score of 0.49 (0.5 - 0.01) which from the normal distribution table is 2.33

The margin of error (E) is:

E=z_{0.01}*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } =2.33*\frac{4}{\sqrt{19} }=2

The confidence interval = μ ± E = 17 ± 2 = (15, 19)

Confidence interval for the population mean is between 15 homes and 19 homes

Find the seventh term of the sequence which has a first term of 1/2 and has a common ratio of three
prohojiy [21]

The seventh term of the sequence is 364.5

<h3>Geometric progression </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the seventh term of the sequence

Using the formula,

a_{n}  = ar^{n-1}

Where a_{n} is the nth term

a is the first term

and r is the common ratio

From the given information,

a = 1/2

r = 3

Thus,

a_{7}  = (\frac{1}{2}) 3^{7-1}

a_{7}  = (\frac{1}{2}) 3^{6}

a_{7}  = \frac{1}{2} \times  729

a_{7}  = 364\frac{1}{2} \ OR \ 364.5

Hence, the seventh term of the sequence is 364.5
