A manufacturer produces piston rings for an automobile engine. It is known that ring diameter is normally distributed with milli
meters. A random sample of 15 rings has a mean diameter of . Construct a 99% two-sided confidence interval on the true mean piston diameter and a 95% lower confidence bound on the true mean piston diameter. Round your answers to 3 decimal places. (a) Calculate the 99% two-sided confidence interval on the true mean piston diameter.
A manufacturer produces piston rings for an automobile engine. It is known that ring diameter is normally distributed with ? = 0.001 millimeters. A random sample of 15 rings has a mean diameter of \bar{X}= 74.106. Construct a 99% two-sided confidence interval on the true mean piston diameter and a 95% lower confidence bound on the true mean piston diameter.
(Round your answers to 3 decimal places.)
(Calculate the 99% two-sided confidence interval on the true mean piston diameter.
Answer:
99% true sided confidence Interval on the true mean Piston diameter = (74.105, 74.107)
3(x + 8) = 17....distribute the 3 thru the parenthesis 3x + 24 = 17...subtract 24 from both sides 3x = 17 - 24 3x = -7...divide both sides by 3 x = -7/3 or -2 1/3 <===
