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

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS AND EXPLAIN EACH ONE AND HOW YOU DID IT PLEASE MY TEACHER SUCK AND ILL GIVE YOU BRAINLY IF U GE
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

a)

d)

Step-by-step explanation:

It's easiest to reduce each statement to its simplest form for comparison

Our test statement can be reduced by combining like terms

16x - 12 -24x + 4 = -8x - 8

this becomes our new gold standard

a) 4 + 16x - 12(1 + 2x)

apply the distributive property by multiplying terms in parenthesis by -12

4 + 16x - 12 - 24x

combine terms

-8x - 8     Yeaah, We have a winner as it exactly matches our gold standard.

b) 40x - 16 is already in simplest terms and does NOT match the gold standard.

c) 16x - 24x - 4 + 12

has the same cardinal values as the original, but differing signs, reducing gives -8x + 8

Not quite the same as a plus sign occurs where a negative exists in our gold standard.

d) -8x - 8  is already in simplest terms and exactly matches our gold standard. Yeah!

e) 10(1.6x - 1.2 - 2.4x + 4)

apply distributive property by multiplying each term in parenthesis by 10

16x - 12 - 24x + 40

combine like terms

-8x + 28 does NOT match our gold standard

There are 6 red marbles, 9 blue marbles, and 10 green marbles in a bag.
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

I think 64%

Step-by-step explanation:

6+9+10 = 25

25x4 = 100

6x4 = 24

10x4 = 40

24+40 = 64

64/100 = 64%

Sry if this is wrong but I think this should be correct
