Y = mx + b
m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
m= (6-3)/(20-5) and m = 3/15 = 1/5. Now calculate b.
To that end plug any of the 2 pairs value, let's take (5,3)
y = (1/5).x + b
3 = (1/5).(5) + b & b= 2

The equation: (1/5)x + 2

Mr. Good Wrench advertises that a customer will have to wait no more than 30 minutes for an oil change. A sample of 26 oil chang

Andru [333]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the population standard deviation waiting time for an oil change is (3.9, 6.3).

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - α)% confidence interval for the population standard deviation is:

$CI=\sqrt{\frac{(n-1)s^{2}}{\chi^{2}_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}}}\leq \sigma\leq \sqrt{\frac{(n-1)s^{2}}{\chi^{2}_{1-\alpha/2, (n-1)}}}$

The information provided is:

n = 26

s = 4.8 minutes

Confidence level = 90%

Compute the critical values of Chi-square as follows:

$\chi^{2}_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}=\chi^{2}_{0.10/2, (26-1)}=\chi^{2}_{0.05, 25}=37.652$

$\chi^{2}_{1-\alpha/2, (n-1)}=\chi^{2}_{1-0.10/2, (26-1)}=\chi^{2}_{0.95, 25}=14.611$

*Use a Chi-square table.

Compute the 90% confidence interval for the population standard deviation waiting time for an oil change as follows:

$CI=\sqrt{\frac{(n-1)s^{2}}{\chi^{2}_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}}}\leq \sigma\leq \sqrt{\frac{(n-1)s^{2}}{\chi^{2}_{1-\alpha/2, (n-1)}}}$

$=\sqrt{\frac{(26-1)\times 4.8^{2}}{37.652}}\leq \sigma\leq \sqrt{\frac{(26-1)\times 4.8^{2}}{14.611}}\\\\=3.9113\leq \sigma\leq 6.2787\\\\\approx 3.9 \leq \sigma\leq6.3$

Thus, the 90% confidence interval for the population standard deviation waiting time for an oil change is (3.9, 6.3).

Answer:

3 laps because if 8 laps is equal to 1 mile, then 8/8 laps is one mile so 3 laps is equal to 3/8 of a mile. Hope it helps
