Answer:

a) z = 1.645

b) Lower endpoint: 0.422cc/m³

Upper endpoint: 0.452 cc/m³

Step-by-step explanation:

Population is approximately normal, so we can find the normal confidence interval.

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.9}{2} = 0.05

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.05 = 0.95, so z = 1.645. This is the critical value, the answer for a).

Now, find M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.645*\frac{0.0325}{\sqrt{12}} = 0.015

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 0.437 - 0.015 = 0.422cc/m³.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 0.437 + 0.015 = 0.452 cc/m³.

b)

Lower endpoint: 0.422cc/m³

Upper endpoint: 0.452 cc/m³

Look at the graph and tell me why it is proportional or nonproportional and why?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

I think it is not proportional because the line is supposed to go thro the middle of each dot, and some of the dots don't have a line thro the middle only on the side or not even on the dot.

Hope this helps!

Can I have help help on 22,24,26,28,30 please
Dmitriy789 [7]
I'll do 22 for you. 22, 24, 26, 28, and 30, are very similar to each other.

PROPORTIONS:
Draw it out.

5/7 = either c/6, or b/5. 
I'll do c/6
5/7 = c/6
solve for c
7c=30
c=30/7
now do the same thing to the remaining side, b.
there!
