Answer:

4.97-2.10\frac{0.0461}{\sqrt{19}}=4.95    

4.97+2.10\frac{0.0461}{\sqrt{19}}=4.99    

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (4.95;4.99)  

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 =4.97 represent the sample mean

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

s=0.0461 represent the sample standard deviation

n=19 represent the sample size  

Confidence interval

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

\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)

In order to calculate the critical value t_{\alpha/2} we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

df=n-1=19-1=18

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: "=-T.INV(0.025,18)".And we see that t_{\alpha/2}=2.10

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

4.97-2.10\frac{0.0461}{\sqrt{19}}=4.95    

4.97+2.10\frac{0.0461}{\sqrt{19}}=4.99    

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (4.95;4.99)

The horizontal line segment at the top of the polygon on the grid below is how many units long?​
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

6 units long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A polygon drawn on a graph.

In order to determine the distance of the horizontal line at the top, we find the coordinates of the end points and then use distance formula to find the exact distance.

Let us label the polygon as ABCD as shown below. AB is the length of the horizontal line.

Coordinates of A are (x_1,y_1)=(-3, 4) as seen in the graph.

Coordinates of B are (x_2,y_2)=( 3, 4) as seen in the graph.

Now, distance formula  for two points (x_1,y_1)\ and\ (x_2,y_2) is:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}\\d_{AB}=\sqrt{(3-(-3))^2+(4-4)^2}\\d_{AB}=\sqrt{(3+3)^2+0}\\d_{AB}=\sqrt{36}=6\ units

Therefore, the horizontal line at the top is 6 units long.
