Answer:

The Confidence Interval is 3.68 to 4.13 at 90% Confidence Level

Option A is correct: "The results tell nothing about the population of all college students in the​ state, since the sample is from only one university."

Since these course ratings were obtained from one university only, it cannot be extended to represent students from all universities in that state because a number of different factors will create a different experience for the students in other universities.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using excel, the mean for the given data was found to be 3.91 and the

Confidence Level (at 90.0%) was found to be 0.23 (correct to 2 decimal places)

To calculate the confidence interval for the population mean, you simply need to work out the lower and upper bounds for the mean value. Just subtract the confidence level from the mean and add the confidence level to the mean

Lower Bound: 3.91 - 0.23 = 3.68

Upper Bound: 3.91 + 0.23 = 4.13

Hope that answers the question. Have a great day!

Given Information:

Confidence level = 90%

population size = 15

Required Information:

confidence interval for the population mean = ?

Answer:

confidence interval for the population mean = 3.74 < μ < 4.13

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the confidence interval in excel using

confidence interval = μ ± confidence    

Where μ is the mean of population and confidence is given by

CONFIDENCE(alpha, standard deviation, population size)

Where alpha is

alpha = 100% - Confidence level

alpha = 100% - 90%

alpha = 10%

alpha = 0.10

So we need to find mean and standard deviation first,

The population mean can be found by using AVERAGE(values) function in excel

The function returns a mean of

μ = 3.93

The standard deviation of population can be found by using STDEV.P(values) function in excel

The function returns a standard deviation of

ο = 0.46

Now the confidence value can be found

CONFIDENCE(alpha, standard deviation, population size)

CONFIDENCE(0.10, 0.46, 15)

The function returns confidence value of

confidence = 0.20

Therefore, the confidence interval is

confidence interval = μ ± confidence

confidence interval = 3.93 ± 0.20

Upper limit = 3.93 + 0.20 = 4.13

Lower limit = 3.93 - 0.20 = 3.74

confidence interval = 3.74 < μ < 4.13

This confidence interval tell us that we are 90% confident that the student evaluation ratings of​ courses are from 3.74 to 4.13 that were obtained at one university in a state.

Nikki had 70% of her savings left in her bank account. If she has $230 in her bank account, how much did she start with?
Alex

Answer:

$299

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 70% is $230 you can divide this by 7 to get 10%.

10% is 23. The remaining percentage we need is 30.

Soo 10% x 3 = 30%. (23x3)

23 x 3 = 69.

69 + 230 = $299

What do we call a polynomial with 5 terms
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

You call an expression with a single term a monimial, an expression with two terms is a binomial and an expression with three terms is a trinomial. An expression with more than three terms is named simply by it's number of terms. For example a polynomial with five terms is called a five-term polynomial.
