A class survey in a large class for first-year college students asked, “About how many minutes do you study on a typical weeknig

ht?” The mean response of the 463 students was = 118 minutes with a standard deviation of 65 minutes in the population of all first-year students at this university. Create a 99% confidence interval for the mean study time of all first-year students. Assume all necessary assumptions and conditions apply given the large sample size. Interpret your interval in context.

Answer:  (110.22, 125.78)

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for the population mean is given by :-

\mu\ \pm z_{\alpha/2}\times\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

Given : Sample size = 463

\mu=118\text{ minutes}

\sigma=65\text{ minutes}

Significance level : \alpha=1-0.99=0.01

Critical value : z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.005}=\pm2.576

We assume that the population is normally distributed.

Now, the 90% confidence interval for the population mean will be :-

118\ \pm\ 2.576\times\dfrac{65}{\sqrt{463}} \\\\\approx118\pm7.78=(118-7.78\ ,\ 118+7.78)=(110.22,\ 125.78)

Hence, 99% confidence interval for the mean study time of all first-year students = (110.22, 125.78)

How do you do the bottom 4? Thanks!
alexandr402 [8]
Alrightie! So we are trying to isolate independent variables! WOO HOO! 

So for a.) y = mx + b which is the point-slope formula... do this :)

y = mx + b
y - b = mx + b - b
y - b = mx 

\frac{y-b}{x} =  \frac{mx}{x}
m =  \frac{y-b}{x}

b.) follow the same way I did above, but instead of dividing x, divide by m.

c.)  I = prt which is the equation for interest. 
divide each side by pr.

d.) This one is like a and b. So lemme show ya.

A - p = prt
\frac{A-p}{pr} =  \frac{t}{pr}
t = \frac{A-p}{pr}

The distance from Antville to Beetleton is 60 km.
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

i. Time = 2 hours.

ii. Average speed for the whole journey = 25 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance from Antville to Beetleton = 60 km

Mr. Caterpillar's speed = 30 km/h

Speed = \frac{distance}{time}

⇒ time = \frac{distance}{speed}

            = \frac{60}{30}

            = 2

time = 2 hours

It would take Mr. Caterpillar 2 hours to travel from Antville to Beetleton at that speed.

On his return journey, his average speed is 20 km/h. Therefore;

average speed for the whole journey = \frac{30 + 20}{2}

                                                 = \frac{50}{2}

                                                 = 25

average speed for the whole journey = 25 km/h
