Answer:

2\frac{38}{125}\ teaspoons

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

There are about 125,000 Brine shrimp in 1 pound

1 pound contains 96 teaspoons

so

There are about 125,000 Brine shrimp in 96 teaspoons

Using proportion

Find out how many teaspoons of brine shrimp represent 3000 Brine shrimp

Let

x -----> the number of teaspoons

\frac{96}{125,000}=\frac{x}{3,000}\\\\x=3,000(96)/125,000\\\\x=\frac{288,000}{125,000}\ teaspoons

Simplify

\frac{288}{125}\ teaspoons

Convert to mixed number

\frac{288}{125}\ teaspoons=\frac{250}{125}+\frac{38}{125}=2\frac{38}{125}\ teaspoons

A toy manufacturer wants to know how many new toys children buy each year. A sample of 305 children was taken to study their pur
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The 80% confidence interval for the mean number of toys purchased each year is between 7.5 and 7.7 toys.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.8}{2} = 0.1

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1 - \alpha.

That is z with a pvalue of 1 - 0.1 = 0.9, so Z = 1.28.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.28\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{305}} = 0.1

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 7.6 - 0.1 = 7.5

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 7.6 + 0.1 = 7.7

The 80% confidence interval for the mean number of toys purchased each year is between 7.5 and 7.7 toys.
