he nutrition label for Oriental Spice Sauce states that one package of sauce has 1100 milligrams of sodium. To determine if the

label is accurate, the FDA randomly selects 40 packages of Oriental Spice Sauce and determines the sodium content. The sample has an average of 1088.64 milligrams of sodium per package with a sample standard deviation of 234.12 milligrams. Calculate a 99% confidence interval for the mean sodium content in Oriental Spice Sauce.

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the mean sodium content in Oriental Spice Sauce is between 454.67 milligrams and 1722.61 milligrams

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 40 - 1 = 39

99% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 39 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.995. So we have T = 2.7079

The margin of error is:

M = T*s = 2.7079*234.12 = 633.97

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 1088.64 - 633.97 = 454.67 milligrams

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 1088.64 + 633.97 = 1722.61 milligrams

The 99% confidence interval for the mean sodium content in Oriental Spice Sauce is between 454.67 milligrams and 1722.61 milligrams

Which graph shows the equation c = 10+ 3t, where c is the total cost of going to the carnival and t is the number of $3 tickets
lubasha [3.4K]

we have

c = 10+ 3t

where

c---------> is the total cost of going to the carnival

t---------> is the number of \$3 tickets purchased

we know that

<u>the domain of the function is the interva</u>l---------------> [0,∞)

Because the number of tickets can not be negative

<u>The range of the function is the interval</u>-------------> [10,∞)

Because the total cost can not be negative

using a graph tool

see the attached figure

Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 30 ft3/min, and its coarseness is such that it forms a pile in the shap
pogonyaev

Answer:

Rate of increase in height =\frac{dh}{dt}=0.3156ft/min

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that volume of a cone is given by

V=\frac{1}{12}\pi d^{2}h

It is Given that diameter equals height thus we have

V=\frac{1}{12}\pi h^{2}h\\\\V=\frac{1}{12}\pi h^{3}

Differentiating both sides with respect to time we get

\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{12}\pi \frac{dh^{3}}{dt}\\\\\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{12}\pi(3h^{2}\frac{dh}{dt})

Applying values and solving for \frac{dh}{dt} we get

\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{12\frac{dV}{dt}}{3\pi h^{2}}\\\\\frac{dh}{dt}=0.3156ft/min

X+y=0.5<br> x-y=1<br> elimination meathod
user100 [1]

Answer:

x=0.75, y=-0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

We can add the two equations to eliminate y and solve for x.

x+y+x-y=0.5+1

2x=1.5

x=0.75

Now, we can find for y by using substitution:

x+y=0.5 (given)

0.75+y=0.5

y=-0.25

Hope this helps :)
