Step-by-step explanation:
Apparently, you're being asked to identify the sequence of steps you would use to compute the volume of the pyramid.
It seems to be a good idea to start with the formula for the volume.
Then, recognize that you need to compute B, so make that computation. The area of the base (B) is the product of the base dimensions (14)(12).
Once you have the value of B, then you can put that, along with the value of h, into the original volume formula.
Evaluating it gives the volume in cubic units.

<em>Additional comment</em>
If you're familiar with the pyramid volume formula, you know that you must compute B before you can make use of the formula. That makes the sequence be B=14(12); B=168; V=1/3Bh; V=1/3(168)(7).
However, if you're starting from scratch, it is probably good to begin with the volume formula. That is what tells you that you need to find B in the first place. This is the sequence we show below.
Answer: a. 1.981 < μ < 2.18
b. Yes.
Step-by-step explanation:
A. For this sample, we will use t-distribution because we're estimating the standard deviation, i.e., we are calculating the standard deviation, and the sample is small, n = 12.
First, we calculate mean of the sample:
2.08
Now, we estimate standard deviation:
s = 0.1564
For t-score, we need to determine degree of freedom and :
df = 12 - 1
df = 11
= 1 - 0.95
α = 0.05
0.025
Then, t-score is
= 2.201
The interval will be
±
2.08 ±
2.08 ± 0.099
The 95% two-sided CI on the mean is 1.981 < μ < 2.18.
B. We are 95% confident that the true population mean for this clinic is between 1.981 and 2.18. Since the mean number performed by all clinics has been 1.95, and this mean is less than the interval, there is evidence that this particular clinic performs more scans than the overall system average.
