Vilka [71]

To problem wants to compute the probability of the expected value that could be earn if you would draw again another card. So base on the fact that if draw a face card of K,Q,J from a standard deck correctly you will earn 10 point in just one draw, but loose 2 points if you another card, the probability that you would draw correct card in just one draw is 30.77%, so the possible value earn you have 2 points only

9.4 The heights of a random sample of 50 college stu- dents showed a mean of 174.5 centimeters and a stan- dard deviation of 6.9

gladu [14]

Answer: a) (176.76,172.24), b) 0.976.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean height = 174.5 cm

Standard deviation = 6.9 cm

n = 50

we need to find the 98% confidence interval.

So, z = 2.326

(a) Construct a 98% confidence interval for the mean height of all college students.

$x\pm z\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=(174.5\pm 2.326\times \dfrac{6.9}{\sqrt{50}})\\\\=(174.5+2.26,174.5-2.26)\\\\=(176.76,172.24)$

(b) What can we assert with 98% confidence about the possible size of our error if we estimate the mean height of all college students to be 174.5 centime- ters?

Error would be

$\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=\dfrac{6.9}{\sqrt{50}}\\\\=0.976$
