You measure 49 textbooks' weights, and find they have a mean weight of 54 ounces. Assume the population standard deviation is 11

.7 ounces. Based on this, construct a 95% confidence interval for the true population mean textbook weight. Use z = 2 for calculations

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)

Thanks

Write the equation, in standard form, for the following relation. B = {(x, y ): (2, 3), (4, 4), (6, 5), . . .}
Rashid [163]
(2,3)(4,4)
slope = (4 - 3) / (4 - 2) = 1/2

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 1/2
(2,3)...x = 2 and y = 3
sub and find b, the y int
3 = 1/2(2) + b
3 = 1 + b
3 - 1 = b
2 = b

ur equation is : y = 1/2x + 2...but we need it in standard form

y = 1/2x + 2
-1/2x + y = 2 ...multiply by -2
x - 2y = -4 <== standard form

Jo jo has a total amount of $12.45 in quarters and dimes in his pocket. he has a total of 60 coins. how many quarters and dimes
baherus [9]

Given:

Total number of coins (Quarters and dimes) = 60

Total amount = $12.45

To find:

The number of quarters and dimes.

Solution:

Let x be the number of quarters and y be the number of dimes.

We know that,

1 quarter = 0.25 dollar

1 dime = 0.10 dollar

Total coins: x+y=60               ...(i)

Total amount: 0.25x+0.10y=12.45             ...(ii)

From (i), we get

y=60-x          ...(iii)

Putting this value in (ii), we get

0.25x+0.10(60-x)=12.45

0.25x+6-0.10x=12.45

0.25x-0.10x=12.45-6

0.15x=6.45

Divide both sides by 0.15.

x=\dfrac{6.45}{0.15}

x=43

Putting x=43 in (iii), we get

y=60-43

y=17

So, the number of quarters is 43 and the number of dimes is 17.

Therefore, the correct option is b.
