An important factor in selling a residential property is the number of times real estate, agents show a home. A sample of 21 hom

Natalka [10]

Using the t-distribution to build the 99% confidence interval, it is found that:

The margin of error is of 3.64.

The 99% confidence interval for the population mean is (19.36, 26.64).

<h3>What is a t-distribution confidence interval?</h3>

The confidence interval is:

$\overline{x} \pm t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which:

$\overline{x}$ is the sample mean.

t is the critical value.

n is the sample size.

s is the standard deviation for the sample.

The critical value, using a t-distribution calculator, for a two-tailed 95% confidence interval, with 21 - 1 = 20 df, is t = 2.086.

The other parameters are given as follows:

$\overline{x} = 23, s = 8, n = 21$

The margin of error is given by:

$M = t\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.086\frac{8}{\sqrt{21}} = 3.64$

Hence the bounds of the interval are:

$\overline{x} - M = 23 - 3.64 = 19.36$

$\overline{x} + M = 23 + 3.64 = 26.64$

The 99% confidence interval for the population mean is (19.36, 26.64).

A magazine provided results from a poll of 500 adults who were asked to identify their favorite pie. Among the 500 respondents,

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The statement that "the margin of error was given as $\pm5$ percentage points" means that the population proportion is estimated to be with a certain level of confidence, within the interval $\hat{p} \pm 0.05$ ; where $\hat{p}[tex] is the sample's proportion. The correct answer is C. The statement indicates that the interval [tex]0.14\pm0.05$ is likely to contain the true population percentage of people that prefer chocolate pie.

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error for proportions is given by the following formula:

$z_{\alpha /2}\times\sqrt{\frac{\hat{p}\times(1-\hat{p})}{n}}$

Where:

$z_{\alpha /2}$ is the critical value that corresponds to the confidence level; the confidence level being $1-\alpha$ ,

$\hat{p}$ is the sample's proportion of successes,

$n$ is the size of the sample.

In this exercise we have that $\hat{p}=0.14$ and that the margin of error is 0.05.

Therefore if we replace in the formula to calculate the confidence interval we get:

$\hat{p}\pm 0.05=0.14\pm0.05=(0.09, 0.19)$

Which means that the true population proportion is estimated to be, with a certain confidence level, within the interval (0.09, 0.19).

Suppose the cost of electricity is $0.03 for each kilowatt-hour. Carlos's house runs on 11.14 kilowatt-hours a day. Find the cos

irga5000 [103]

Answer: I think the answer is $33.42

Explanation: If it’s $0.03 for every hour and there is only 11.14 hours used a day just multiply 11.14 by .03 and you get .3342 then you move the decimal over 2 spaces to get 33.42
