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)

Graph the linear equation. Find the three points that solve the equation then plot on the graph. -y=-x+1
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step will be to make y the subject of the formula, by multiplying both sides of the equation by -1.

y = x - 1

This is simply the equation of a line with a slope of 1 and y-intercept (0,-1)

To determine the three points that solve the equation, we can let x be;

0, 1, 2

When x =0, y = 0-1 = -1

When x = 1, y = 1-1 = 0

When x = 2, y = 2 - 1 = 1

Therefore, we have the following three sets of points that can be used to graph the given linear equation;

(0, -1)

(1, 0)

(2, 1)

Find the attached for the graph

I really need help finding the surface area
SpyIntel [72]
There are 4 triangles and the formula for the area of a triangle is 1/2BH so 11x10 is 110 and then take half of that and you’ll get 55. Since there are 4 triangles you need to then multiply that by 4 to get 220. And then you have to find the area of the square base which is 11x11 which will come out to 121. So you add the 220 and 121 to get 341.
