Banking fees have received much attention during the recent economic recession as banks look for ways to recover from the crisis

. A sample of 41 customers paid an average fee of ​$12.22 per month on their​ interest-bearing checking accounts. Assume the population standard deviation is ​$1.86. Complete parts a and b below.
a. Construct a 95% confidence interval to estimate the average fee for the population.
b. What is the margin of error for this interval?

Answer:

a) The 95% confidence interval to estimate the average fee for the population is between $11.65 and $12.79

b) $0.57

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.025 = 0.975, so z = 1.96

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.96*\frac{1.86}{\sqrt{41}} = 0.57

So the answer for b) is $0.57.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 12.22 - 0.57 = $11.65

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 12.22 + 0.57 = $12.79

The 95% confidence interval to estimate the average fee for the population is between $11.65 and $12.79

In 2007, there were more than 8.14 million cars for sale. Over the next 3 years, the number of cars decreased by 23%. Write an e
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

c = 8.14 million×(0.9166)^t

4.83 million  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

  t = y - 2007

c₀ = 8.14 million

c₃  = 23 % less than c₁

Part 1. Calculate c₃

c₃ = c₀(1 - 0.23) = 0.77c₀

Part 2. Calculate r

      c₃ = c₀r^t

0.77c₀ = c₀r³

   0.77 = r³              Divided each side by c₀

         r = 0.9166     Took the cube root of each side

The explicit decay model is c = 8.14 million×(0.9166)^t

Part 3. Prediction

t = 2013 - 2007 = 6

c = c₀r^t = 8.14 million×(0.9166)⁶ = 8.14 million × 0.5929 = 4.83 million

The model predicts that there will be 4.83 million cars for sale in 2013.

4/3 b + 2 equals 4 - 1/3 be​
DIA [1.3K]

I do not understand what you are asking but I am going to assume that you are trying to simplify the equation.

First, write the equation.

(4/3)b + 2 = 4 - (1/3)b

Add (1/3)b to each side.

(5/3)b + 2 = 4

Subtract 2 on each side.

(5/3)b = 2

Divide by (5/3) on each side

b = 1.2

b = 1.2 is your final answer.
