Answer:

= ( 50.66, 57.34)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = 54 ounces

Standard deviation r = 11.7 ounces

Number of samples n = 49

Confidence interval = 95%

z(at 95% confidence) = 2

Substituting the values we have;

54+/-2(11.7/√49)

54+/-2(1.671428571428)

54+/-3.342857142857

54+/-3.34

= ( 50.66, 57.34)

Therefore, the 95% confidence interval (a,b)

= ( 50.66, 57.34)

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

43,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, the tipping point is 50%.

42,591, if the hundreds to one's place is 500 or more, the number 591, it increases the thousands value by 1

Since 591 is greater than 591, the new number will increase from 42,591 to 43,000
