Five hundred randomly selected working adults living in Calgary, Canada were asked how long, in minutes, their typical daily com

mute was (Calgary Herald Traffic Study, Ipsos, September 17, 2005). The resulting sample mean and standard deviation of commute time were 28.5 minutes and 24.2 minutes, respectively. Construct and interpret a 90% confidence interval for the mean commute time of working adult Calgary residents.

Answer:

90% confidence interval for the mean commute time of working adult Calgary residents is between a lower limit of 26.72 minutes and an upper limit of 30.28 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval = Mean + or - Error margin (E)

mean = 28.5 minutes

sd = 24.2 minutes

n = 500

degree of freedom = n - 1 = 500 - 1 = 499

confidence level = 90%

t-value corresponding to 499 degrees of freedom and 90% confidence level = 1.64801

E = t × sd/√n = 1.64801 × 24.2/√500 = 1.78

Lower limit = mean - E = 28.5 - 1.78 = 26.72 minutes

Upper limit = mean + E = 28.5 + 1.78 = 30.28 minutes

90% confidence interval is between 26.72 and 30.28 minutes.

Find the two points on segment AB that divide the segment into 3 congruent Parts if A has coordinates (0 0) and point B has coor
Elena L [17]

Answer:

  (3, 2), (6, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since one end (A) of the segment AB is at the origin, the required points will be 1/3 and 2/3 of the coordinates of B:

  (1/3)(9, 6) = (3, 2)

  (2/3)(9, 6) = (6, 4)

0.9(x+1.4)−2.3+0.1x=1.60.9(x+1.4)−2.3+0.1x=1.6
SIZIF [17.4K]
I assume that the given equation above is 0.9(x+1.4)−2.3+0.1x=1.6 and not 0.9(x+1.4)−2.3+0.1x=1.60.9(x+1.4)−2.3+0.1x=1.6, I think there is a typo error on this. Based on equation I assumed the answer is 2.64.Thank you for posting your question here, I hope my answer helps.

What are a) the ratio of the perimeters and b) the ratio of the ratio of the areas of the larger figure to the smaller figure
vfiekz [6]
Assuming that the figures given are square such that the scale factor between them is equal to 28/8 which can be further simplified into 7/2. The ratio of the perimeter is also equal to this value, 7/2. However, the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of this value giving us an answer of 49/4.
