Given is the number of science fiction books = 48

Let the number of mystery books be = x

Let the number of biographies be = y

Ratio of the number of mystery books to the number of science fiction books is 4:3 so \frac{4}{3}= \frac{x}{48}

=3x=48\times4

x=64

Ratio of the number of science fiction books to the number of biographies is 4:5 so \frac{4}{5}=\frac{48}{y}

=4y=5\times48

y=60

Hence there are 48 science fiction books, 64 mystery books and 60 biographies.

So total number of books are = 48+64+60=172

A supervisor records the repair cost for 14 randomly selected refrigerators. A sample mean of $79.20 and standard deviation of $
Nitella [24]

Answer:

( $74.623, $83.777)

The 90% confidence interval is = ( $74.623, $83.777)

Critical value at 90% confidence = 1.645

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = $79.20

Standard deviation r = $10.41

Number of samples n = 14

Confidence interval = 90%

Using the z table;

The critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval.

z(α=0.05) = 1.645

Critical value at 90% confidence z = 1.645

Substituting the values we have;

$79.20+/-1.645($10.42/√14)

$79.20+/-1.645($2.782189528308)

$79.20+/-$4.576701774067

$79.20+/-$4.577

( $74.623, $83.777)

The 90% confidence interval is = ( $74.623, $83.777)
