Given:

Set A: 1 4 4 4 5 5 5 8

Mean: 4.5

Standard dev: 1.9

 

Set B:

Mean: 4.5

Standard dev: 2.45

 

% =  90 

Set A:

Standard Error, SE = s/ √n =    1.9/√8 = 0.67  

Degrees of freedom = n - 1 =   8 -1 =  7   

t- score =  1.89457861

<span> <span><span> <span>   </span> </span> </span></span>

Width of the confidence interval = t * SE =     1.89457861* 0.67 = 1.272685913

Lower Limit of the confidence interval = x-bar - width =      4.5 - 1.272685913 = 3.23

Upper Limit of the confidence interval = x-bar + width =      4.5 + 1.272685913 = 5.77

The 90% confidence interval is [3.23, 5.77]

 

Set B:

Standard Error, SE = s/ √n =    2.45/√8 = 0.87  

Degrees of freedom = n - 1 =   8 -1 = 7   

t- Score =  1.89457861

<span> <span><span> <span>   </span> </span> </span></span>

Width of the confidence interval = t * SE =     1.89457861* 0.87 = 1.641094994

Lower Limit of the confidence interval = x-bar - width =      4.5 - 1.641094994 = 2.86

Upper Limit of the confidence interval = x-bar + width =      4.5 + 1.641094994 = 6.14

The 90% confidence interval is [2.86, 6.14]

 

<span>We can obviously see that sample B has more variation in the scores than sample A. The fact that the standard deviation is 2.45 for B and 1.9 for A). Therefore, they yield dissimilar confidence intervals even though they have the same mean and range.</span>

Answer:

C. 7790.83 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a sphere is given by

V = 4/3 pi r^3

We know the radius is 12.3

Using 3.14 for pi  (This will give us an approximation, not an exact value)

V = 4/3(3.14) (12.3)^3

   =7790.82984 cm^3
