A simple random sample of 72 face-to-face meetings held in March 2020 was selected, and the mean length of this sample of 72 mee

tings was 48 minutes with a standard deviation of 14.3 minutes. An independent simple random sample of 61 Zoom meetings held in March 2020 was selected, and the mean length of this sample of 61 meetings was 53 minutes with a standard deviation of 12.8 minutes. If appropriate, use this information to calculate and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the difference in the mean length of all face-to-face meetings and the mean length of all Zoom meetings.

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the difference in the mean length of all face-to-face meetings and the mean length of all Zoom meetings is (-9.70, 0.31).

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - <em>α</em>)% confidence interval for the difference between two means, in case of unknown population standard deviation is:

CI=(\bar x_{1}-\bar x_{2})\pm t_{\alpha/2, (n_{1}+n_{2}-2)}\times S_{p}\times \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}}}

The information provided is:

n_{1}=72\\\bar x_{1}=48\\s_{1}=14.3\\n_{2}=61\\\bar x_{2}=53\\s_{2}=12.8

Compute the value of pooled standard deviation as follows:

S_{p}=\sqrt{\frac{(n_{1}-1)s_{1}^{2}+(n_{2}-1)s_{2}^{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}-2}}=\sqrt{\frac{(72-1)14.3^{2}+(61-1)12.8^{2}}{72+61-2}}=13.63

Compute the critical value of <em>t</em> as follows:

t_{\alpha/2, (n_{1}+n_{2}-2)}=t_{0.05/2, (72+61-2)}=t_{0.025, 131}=1.978

*Use a <em>t</em>-table.

Compute the 95% confidence interval for the difference between two means as follows:

CI=(\bar x_{1}-\bar x_{2})\pm t_{\alpha/2, (n_{1}+n_{2}-2)}\times S_{p}\times \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}}}

     =(48-53)\pm 1.978\times 13.63\times\sqrt{\frac{1}{72}+\frac{1}{61}}\\=-5\pm 4.6916\\=(-9.6916, -0.3084)\\\approx (-9.70, -0.31)

Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the difference in the mean length of all face-to-face meetings and the mean length of all Zoom meetings is (-9.70, 0.31).

What is rational number and how do you convert 4/33 as decimal
mr Goodwill [35]
A rational number includes fractions (3/4), integers (-2,-1,0,1,2), and whole numbers (0,1,2,3,4,5).

To convert a fraction into a decimal, you divide the numerator by the denominator. In your case, 4/33 as a decimal is 0.1212121212...etc..

The speed-time graph shows the first 30 minutes of another train journey. The distance travelled is 100km. The maximum speed of
aalyn [17]

The question is missing the graph. So, the graph is attached below.

Answer:

The maximum speed of the train is V=240\ km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance travelled is 100 km.

Time interval is 30 minutes.

We know that, area under the curve of a speed-time graph gives the total distance travelled by the train.

The area under the curve is the area of the given trapezium shape shown in the graph below.

The height of the trapezium is equal to the maximum speed of the train represented by 'V' km/h. The parallel sides are of lengths equal to (25 - 5 =) 20 min and (30 - 0 =) 30 min.

Converting the units of parallel sides from minutes to hours we get:

30\ min=\frac{30}{60}=\frac{1}{2}\ h\\20\ min=\frac{20}{60}=\frac{1}{3}\ h

Now, area of a trapezium is given as:

Area=\frac{1}{2}\times\textrm{Sum of parallel sides}\times \textrm{Height}\\\\Area=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3})(V)\\\\Area=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{3+2}{6})(V)\\\\Area=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{5}{6})(V)\\\\Area=(\frac{1\times 5}{2\times6})(V)\\\\Area=\frac{5}{12}(V)

Now, area under the curve is equal to the distance travelled. So,

\frac{5}{12}(V)=100\\V=\frac{100\times12}{5}\\V=240\ km/h

Therefore, the maximum speed of the train is V=240\ km/h

Find the percent increase. Round to the nearest percent.<br> From 76 books to 144 books
Alborosie
First find the increase in books
144-76 = 68

Next find the percentage for 68
68/144 = 0.47222
0.47*100 = 47%
