In order to estimate the average electricity usage per month, a sample of 125 residential customers were selected, and the month

ly electricity usage was determined using the customers' meter readings. Assume a population variance of 12,100kWh2. Use Excel to find the 98% confidence interval for the mean electricity usage in kilowatt hours. Round your answers to two decimal places and use ascending order.

Answer:

[895.05; 940.81]kWh

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Be X: monthly electricity usage by a residential customer

X~N

σ²: 12100KWh²

To estimate the population mean using a 98% CI you have to use the following formula

[X[bar]±Z_{1-\alpha /2} * \frac{Sigma}{\sqrt{n} }]

1-α: 0.98

α0.02

α/2: 0.01

1-α/2:0.99

Z_{1-\alpha /2}= Z_{0.99}= 2.326

n= 125

X[bar]= ∑X/n= 228565/125= 917.93

[917.93±2.326 * \frac{110}{\sqrt{125} }]

[895.05; 940.81]

Using a 98% confidence level you'd expect that the interval [895.05; 940.81]kWh will include the average monthly electricity usage of residential customers.

I hope this helps!

Find (-2)<br>f(x)=2x² – 3x +6<br>29 ponits​
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

f(-2) = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2x² - 3x + 6

f(-2) = 2(-2)² - 3(-2) + 6

= 2(4) + 6 + 6

= 8 + 12

= 20

During the first few years of a tree's life, its growth rate is linear. For example, an oak tree grows at a rate of 1.5 feet per
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Mostafa's maple tree grows at a slower yearly rate than an oak tree.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

An oak tree grows at a rate of 1.5 feet per year for twelve years;

After 12 year; the oak tree will be = 12 × 1.5 = 18 feet per year.

Now; we are being told that Mostafa plants a maple tree at his backyard and measures its height at 4 feet.

i.e x years  = 4 ft

two years later ; it height is now 6.5 ft

thus;

x year = 4 ft

x + 2 = 6.5 ft

6.5 * x = (x+2)4\\  \\ 6.5 x = 4x + 8\\ \\ 6.5x-4x = 8\\ \\ 2.5x = 8\\ \\ x = \dfrac{8}{2.5}\\ \\ x = 3.2

Thus ; Mostafa first measured the height of the tree when it is 4 ft at the age year of  3.2

So;

if 3.2 year = 4 ft

1 year = x

x  = \dfrac{4 *1 }{3.2}

x  = 1.25 ft

So if an oak tree grows at the rate of 1.5 ft in a year.

Then, Mostafa's maple tree grows at the rate of 1.25 ft in a year.

From the given information in the diagram attached below; we can infer that :

Mostafa's maple tree grows at a slower yearly rate than an oak tree.
