A realtor would like to create a 95% confidence interval for the average price of a house in Franklin County, Ohio. To accomplis

h this, she collected a random sample of 529 houses and calculated a sample mean price of $320,128. She knows that the population standard deviation for house prices in Franklin County is $50,324. What is her 95% confidence interval?

Answer:

320128-1.96\frac{50324}{\sqrt{529}}=315839.52    

320128+1.96\frac{50324}{\sqrt{529}}=324416.48    

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (315839.52;324416.48)    

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

\bar X=320128 represent the sample mean

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

\sigma=50324 represent the population standard deviation

n=529 represent the sample size  

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of \alpha=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025, and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-NORM.INV(0.025,0,1)".And we see that z_{\alpha/2}=1.96

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

320128-1.96\frac{50324}{\sqrt{529}}=315839.52    

320128+1.96\frac{50324}{\sqrt{529}}=324416.48    

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (315839.52;324416.48)

The product of the square of a number x and 2 subtracted from 3 is y.
lozanna [386]

The algebraic expression for the given statement is: 2x² - 3 = y.

<h3>How to Write an Algebraic Expression?</h3>

To wrote an algebraic expression is translate a statement using numbers, variables, and mathematical sign into a mathematical statement.

Square of x is: x²

Product of x² and 2 is: 2x²

Thus, we would have:

2x² - 3 = y

The algebraic expression is: 2x² - 3 = y.
