To better understand the financial burden students are faced with each term, the statistics department would like to know how mu

ch their ST201 students are spending on school materials on average. Let’s use our class data to calculate a 95% confidence interval to estimate the average amount ST201 students spend on materials each term. The average from our student survey is $248 and the number of students sampled is 90. Assume . State the question of interest. On average, how much do ST201 students spend on school materials each term? a. (1 point) Identify the parameter. b. Check the conditions. a. (2 points) Does the data come from a random sample? What are some potential biases about the way the data was collected? (1 point) Is the sample size large enough for distribution of the sample mean to be normal according to the rules for Central Limit Theorem?

Answer:

Answer:

a).

The amount spent on school materials for each term of all ST201students

b).

a).

It is not a random sample. This looks like a convenience sampling and there is sampling bias. This sample is not representative of the entire population. Since it is not a random sample it is not appropriate to generalize the results to all students.

b).

The sample size is 80 which is greater than 30. It is large enough to assume normal distribution according to central limit theorem.

c).

mean: $617

z critical value at 95%: 1.96

standard error = σ/sqrt(n) =500/sqrt(80) = 55.9017

lower limit= mean-1.96*se = 617-1.96*55.9017=507.43

upper limit= mean+1.96*se = 617+1.96*55.9017=726.57

d).

The amount spent on school materials for each term for the 80 ST201students is $617. We are 95% confident that amount spent on school materials for each term of all ST201students falls in the interval ($507.43, $726.57).

The part (aka "is") = 8 and the percent is 42, what is the whole (aka
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

33

Step-by-step explanation:

If you simplify what the question is saying, it's basically..

8 is 24% of <u>what number?</u>

To find out, you can simply set up an equation.

((24% = 0.24 as a decimal (move the decimal point two times to the left))

8 = 0.24 x N (N is just the 'whole')

To solve, you just need to divide 8 ÷ 0.24. So, N = 33.333 repeating.

The question says to round to the nearest whole number, so the answer would just be 33.

Forty-two of the students in band own their instrument.
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

112 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Let T be the total number of students in the band.

From the question,

We were told that 37.5% of the total owns their individual instruments and this amount to 42 students

The total number of students can calculated for as follows:

37.5% x T = 42

37.5/100 x T = 42

Cross multiply to express in linear form

37.5 x T = 100 x 42

Divide both side by 37.5

T = (100 x 42) /37.5

T = 112

Therefore, there are 112 students in the band
