Last Wednesday, a random sample of 24 students were surveyed to find how long it takes to walk from the Fretwell Building to the

college of education building. The survey team found a sample mean of 12.3 minutes with a standard deviation of 3.2 minutes. assuming walking time from Fretwell to College of education are normally distribution, which of the following is the correct 95% confidence interval for the population mean of walking times.

Answer:

E

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- We are to investigate the confidence interval of 95% for the population mean of walking times from Fretwell Building to the college of education building.

- The survey team took a sample of size n = 24 students and obtained the following results:

                Sample mean ( x^ ) = 12.3 mins

                Sample standard deviation ( s ) = 3.2 mins

- The sample taken was random and independent. We can assume normality of the sample.

- First we compute the critical value for the statistics.

- The z-distribution is a function of two inputs as follows:

  • Significance Level  ( α / 2 ) = ( 1 - CI ) / 2 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

Compute: z-critical = z_0.025 = +/- 1.96

- The confidence interval for the population mean ( u ) of  walking times is given below:

                      [ x^ - z-critical*s / √n  ,   x^ + z-critical*s / √n  ]

Answer:        [ 12.3 - 1.96*3.2 / √24  ,  12.3 + 1.96*3.2 / √24  ]

The Math Club wants to visit a science museum that is 180 miles away from the school. If the club has $150 in its field trip
Arlecino [84]

Well, i depends on how much the van cost bc if you do have enough for the van alone, then you will not have enough for the gas or for snacks for the 180mile drive
