Answer:
The confidence interval for the population variance of the thicknesses of all aluminum sheets in this factory is Lower limit = 2.30, Upper limit = 4.83.
Step-by-step explanation:
The confidence interval for population variance is given as below:
We are given
Confidence level = 98%
Sample size = n = 81
Degrees of freedom = n – 1 = 80
Sample Variance = S^2 = 3.23
(By using chi-square table)
[(n – 1)*S^2 / X^2 α/2, n– 1 ] < σ^2 < [(n – 1)*S^2 / X^2 1 -α/2, n– 1 ]
[(81 – 1)* 3.23 / 112.3288] < σ^2 < [(81 – 1)* 3.23/ 53.5401]
2.3004 < σ^2 < 4.8263
Lower limit = 2.30
Upper limit = 4.83.
Find the slope first by using rise/run
We need to find the y-intercept. Substituting one of given ordered pairs. I will use (-2,-1).
Substitute x = -2 and y = -1 in the equation.
Thus the y-intercept is 4/3.
From y = mx+b, the equation is.
