Suppose we take a random sample of 41 state college students. Then we measure the length of their right foot in centimeters. We

compute a 95% confidence interval for the mean foot length for students at this college. We get (21.71, 25.09). Suppose that we now compute a 90% confidence interval. As confidence level decreases, the interval width .

Answer:

As confidence level decreases, the interval width decreases too.

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval is an interval in which is probable that the true value of an unknown variable is contained. The confidence level is the probability that this true value is within the limits of the interval.

The degree of confidence or confidence level is defined and affects the width of the confidence interval.

If the true value of the mean foot length is within 21.71 and 25.09 with a 95% confidence level, if we decrease the confidence level to 90%, we expect to have an interval with smaller width.

When we increase the confidence level, we expect to be more sure about the true value being contained in the interval. As we do not count with new information, the only way to be more sure is to have a wider interval.

If the confidence level decreases, we can have a narrower confidence interval as we are not so severe with the probability of containing the true level.

which ordered pairs in the form (x, y) are solutions to the equation 3x−4y=21 ? Select each correct answer. (−1, −6) (−3, 3) (11
Valentin [98]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine which ordered pairs are solutions to the equation

Substitute the x and y values into the left side of the equation and if equal to the right side then they are a solution.

(- 1, - 6)

3(- 1) - 4(- 6) = - 3 + 24 = 21 = right side ← thus a solution

(- 3, 3)

3(- 3) - 4(3) = - 9 - 12 = - 21 ≠ 21 ← not a solution

(11, 3)

3(11) - 4(3) = 33 - 12 = 21 = right side ← thus a solution

(7, 0)

3(7) - 4(0) = 21 - 0 = 21 = right side ← thus a solution

The ordered pairs (- 1, - 6), (11, 3), (7, 0) are solutions to the equation

What is the value of Z?
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Both x and y are inscribed angles.  The value of an inscribed angle is half the measure of its intercepted arc.  This means that x has a value of 33°, and y has a value of 48°.  That means that, according to the triangle angle sum theorem, the third angle has to equal 180 - 33 - 48 = 99°.

This angle is vertical with angle z, so angle z also equals 99°
