Answer:

a) 98% confidence interval for the true mean checking account balance for local customers.

(453.586 , 874.693)

b)   95% confidence interval for the standard deviation.

(214.91 , 441.53)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a size of sample 'n' =14

given mean of the sample x⁻ = $664.14

standard deviation of the sample 'S' = $297.29.

a)

<u>98% of confidence intervals</u>

<u></u>(x^{-} - t_{\alpha } \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-}+ t_{\alpha }\frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } )<u></u>

The degrees of freedom γ=n-1 =14-1 =13

t₁₃ = 2.650 at 98% of confidence level of signification.

(664.14- 2.650\frac{297.29}{\sqrt{14} } , 664.14+ 2.650\frac{297.29}{\sqrt{14} } )

on calculation, we get

(664.14-210.553 , 664.14+210.553)

(453.586 , 874.693)

98% confidence interval for the true mean checking account balance for local customers.

(453.586 , 874.693)

<u>95% of confidence intervals</u>

({s\sqrt{\frac{n-1}{X^{2} _{(\frac{\alpha }{2} ,n-1) } } } ,s\sqrt{\frac{n-1}{X^2_{\frac{1-\alpha }{2},n-1 } } }  )

The degrees of freedom γ=n-1 =14-1 =13

X^2_{0.05,13} =22.36     (check table)

X^2_{0.95,13} = 5.892    (check table)

(297.29. (\sqrt{\frac{14-1}{X^2_{0.05,13}  } } ),297.29(\sqrt{\frac{14-1}{X^2_{0.95,13} } } )

(297.29. (\sqrt{\frac{14-1}{22.36  } } ),297.29(\sqrt{\frac{14-1}{5.892 } } )

(214.91 , 441.53)

95% confidence interval for the standard deviation.

(214.91 , 441.53)

Rob laid three sticks end to end. The lengths of the sticks were 45 millimeters, 32 centimeters, and 4 decimeters. How long, in
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

<u>0.765 meters</u> long were the sticks when laid end to end.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Rob laid three sticks end to end. The lengths of the sticks were 45 millimeters, 32 centimeters, and 4 decimeters.

Now, to find the length in meters of the sticks when laid end to end.

The lengths of the sticks are:

1st stick - 45 millimeters.

2nd stick - 32 centimeters.

3rd stick - 4 decimeters.

So, we convert the units of sticks into meters by using conversion factor:

1st stick:

1 millimeter = 0.001 meter.

45 millimeters = 0.001 × 45

45 millimeters = 0.045 meter.

2nd stick:

1 centimeter = 0.01 meter.

32 centimeters = 0.01 × 32

32 centimeters = 0.32 meter.

3rd stick:

1 decimeter = 0.1 meter.

4 decimeters = 0.1 × 4

4 decimeters = 0.4 meter.

Now, adding all the three sticks length to get the the length in meters of the sticks when laid end to end:

0.045+0.32+0.4\\\\=0.765\ meters.

Therefore, 0.765 meters long were the sticks when laid end to end.

Which of the following statements is true for the logistic differential equation?
solong [7]

Answer:

All of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

dy/dt = y/3 (18 − y)

0 = y/3 (18 − y)

y = 0 or 18

d²y/dt² = y/3 (-dy/dt) + (1/3 dy/dt) (18 − y)

d²y/dt² = dy/dt (-y/3 + 6 − y/3)

d²y/dt² = dy/dt (6 − 2y/3)

d²y/dt² = y/3 (18 − y) (6 − 2y/3)

0 = y/3 (18 − y) (6 − 2y/3)

y = 0, 9, 18

y" = 0 at y = 9 and changes signs from + to -, so y' is a maximum at y = 9.

y' and y" = 0 at y = 0 and y = 18, so those are both asymptotes / limiting values.
