The Great Eagles of the Misty Mountains wish to estimate the mean number of orcs per raiding party. To do so, they measure the n

umber of orcs in 13 raiding parties. They find an average of 85 orcs per party with a standard deviation of 7.8 orcs in their sample. Compute the 99% confidence interval about the mean number of orcs per raiding party. Answer with the Upper Bound only.
Round to 2 decimal places, as needed.

Answer:

The Upper Bound of the 99% confidence interval about the mean number of orcs per raiding party is of 106.83 orcs per party.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation of the sample, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 13 - 1 = 12

99% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 12 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.995. So we have T = 3.0545

The margin of error is:

M = T*s = 3.0545*7.8 = 23.83

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 83 + 23.83 = 106.83 orcs per party.

The Upper Bound of the 99% confidence interval about the mean number of orcs per raiding party is of 106.83 orcs per party.

A student charges twenty dollars per hour to type college papers. The student's average typing speed is fifty words per minute.
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

The student should charge $210 for typing the paper ⇒ answer C

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The rate of the student's typing is 50 words per minute

- The students charges twenty dollars per hour to type the college

 papers

- There is a paper contains 31,500 words

- We want to now how much the student should charge for it

* At first lets find his rate per hour

∵ 1 hour = 60 minutes

∴ 1 minute = 1/60 hours

∵ His rate = 50 words / 1 minute

- Lets change the minute to hour

∴ His rate = 50/(1 × 1/60) = 3000 words per hour

* Lets find the time he needs to finish the paper

∵ The paper contains 31,500 words

∵ Time = The number of words ÷ his rate of typing

∵ his rate is 3000 words per hour

∴ Time = 31,500 ÷ 3000 = 10.5 hours

∴ He needs 10.5 hours to finish the paper

∵ He charges $20 per hour

∵ The time to finish the paper is 10.5 hours

∵ The price of typing the paper = the charge per hour × number

   of hours

∴ The price of typing the paper = 20 × 10.5 = 210

∴ The student should charge $210 for typing the paper

vodomira [7]

Answer:

The answer for part A: If the city is hotter in temperature more people will want the cold refreshing lemonade.

Part B: The line of best fit is a line that will have the same amount of point on each side so you should draw a straight line and then make sure it has the same amount of point on each side. To calculate the slope use Y2-Y1/X2-X1, Y-intercept is the point that intercepts the Y-intercept.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: Because if it is hot outside you will sweat more being less hydrated which is why more people would want a drink especially lemonade.
