Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Call the number : x
(1/3)x + 5 = x-6
=> (1/3)x + 5 - (x-6) = 0
=> (1/3)x + 5 - x + 6 = 0
Group (1/3)x with -x, 5 with 6
=> [(1/3)x - x] + (5+6) = 0
=> (-2/3)x + 11 = 0
=> (-2/3)x = -11
=> x = -11 : (-2/3) = 33/2.
Recheck : 1/3 x 33/2 + 5 = 33/6 + 5 = 63/6 = 21/2
33/2 - 21/2 = 12/2 = 6 (21/2 is 6 less than 33/2, satisfied.)
From the given mean and margin of error, the 99% confidence interval for the mean amount of money spent on lunch per week for all students is:
[$19.5, $22.5].
<h3>How to calculate a confidence interval given the sample mean and the margin of error?</h3>
The confidence interval is given by the sample mean plus/minus the margin of error, hence:
- The lower bound is the sample mean subtracted by the margin of error.
- The upper bound is the sample mean added to the margin of error.
For this problem, we have that:
- The sample mean is of $21.
- The margin of error is of $1.50.
Hence the bounds are given as follows:
- Lower bound: 21 - 1.50 = $19.50.
- Upper bound: 21 + 1.50 = $22.50.
Hence the interval is [$19.50, $22.50].
