Answer:
The question is incomplete, but the step-by-step procedures are given to solve the question.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of .
That is z with a pvalue of , so Z = 2.575.
Now, find the margin of error M as such
In which is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M.
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M.
The 99% confidence interval for the population mean amount of beverage in 16-ounce beverage cans is (lower end, upper end).
Answer:
a) Var[z] = 1600
D[z] = 40
b) Var[z] = 2304
D[z] = 48
c) Var[z] = 80
D[z] = 8.94
d) Var[z] = 80
D[z] = 8.94
e) Var[z] = 320
D[z] = 17.88
Step-by-step explanation:
In general
V([x+y] = V[x] + V[y] +2Cov[xy]
how in this problem Cov[XY] = 0, then
V[x+y] = V[x] + V[y]
Also we must use this properti of the variance
V[ax+b] = V[x]
and remember that
standard desviation =
a) z = 35-10x
Var[z] = Var[x] = 100*16 = 1600
D[z] = = 40
b) z = 12x -5
Var[z] = Var[x] = 144*16 = 2304
D[z] = = 48
c) z = x + y
Var[z] = Var[x+y] = Var[x] + Var[y] = 16 + 64 = 80
D[z] = = 8.94
d) z = x - y
Var[z] = Var[x-y] = Var[x] + Var[y] = 16 + 64 = 80
D[z] = = 8.94
e) z = -2x + 2y
Var[z] = 4Var[x] + 4Var[y] = 4*16 + 4*64 = 320
D[z] = = 17.88
