A data set includes 103 body temperatures of healthy adult humans having a mean of 98.9degreesf and a standard deviation of 0.67

degreesf. construct a 99​% confidence interval estimate of the mean body temperature of all healthy humans. what does the sample suggest about the use of 98.6 degreesf as the mean body​ temperature?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval is written in the form,

(Sample mean - margin of error, sample mean + margin of error)

The sample mean, x is the point estimate for the population mean.

Margin of error = z × s/√n

Where

s = sample standard deviation = 0.67

n = number of samples = 103

From the information given, the population standard deviation is unknown hence, we would use the t distribution to find the z score

In order to use the t distribution, we would determine the degree of freedom, df for the sample.

df = n - 1 = 103 - 1 = 102

Since confidence level = 99% = 0.99, α = 1 - CL = 1 – 0.99 = 0.01

α/2 = 0.01/2 = 0.005

the area to the right of z0.005 is 0.005 and the area to the left of z0.005 is 1 - 0.005 = 0.995

Looking at the t distribution table,

z = 2.6249

Margin of error = 2.6249 × 0.67/√103

= 0.173

Confidence interval = 98.6 ± 0.173

This suggests that the mean body temperature could very possibly be

98.6degrees°F.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

<h2>1,265.19 is 181% of 699</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the ratio of 1265.19 and 699, then convert it to a percent (multiply by 100%):

\dfrac{1,265.19}{699}=1.81\\\\1.81\cdot100\%=181\%

Find the base circumference of a cone with height 10 cm and volume 90π cm3 .
Leni [432]

Answer:

<em>Answer is </em><em>circumference</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em>32</em><em>.</em><em>64</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

given \\ volume \: of \: cone \:  = 90\pi \:  {cm}^{3}  \\ and \: height = 10 \: cm \:  \\ to \: find: circumference \\ by \: the \: given \: data \\ volume \: of \: cone = 90\pi \\  \frac{1}{3} \pi {r}^{2} h = 90\pi \\ cancelling \: \pi \: which \: is \: common \: \\ we \: get \\  \frac{1}{3 }  {r}^{2} h = 90 \\ we \: know \: that \: h = 10 \\ on \: substituting \: we \: get \\  \frac{1}{3}  {r}^{2}  \times 10 = 90 \\ dividing \: by \: 10 \: on \: both \: sides \: we \: get \\  \frac{1}{3}  {r}^{2}  = 9 \\  {r }^{2}  = 27 \\ r = 3 \sqrt{3}  \\ we \: know \: that \: circumference \:  = 2\pi \: r \\  = 2 \times  \frac{22}{7}  \times 3 \sqrt{3}  \\  on \: solving \: the \: above \: mentioned \: we \: get \\  \\  \:  = 32.64
