Answer:

14.90 to 16.70 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Sample size; n = 49

Mean; x¯ = 15.8

Sample standard deviation; s = 3.85

At 90% Confidence interval, z = 1.645

Formula for confidence interval is;

CI = x¯ ± z(s/√n)

Thus;

CI = 15.8 ± 1.645(3.85/√49)

CI = 15.8 ± 0.90

CI = 14.90 to 16.70 tons

C. Both options A and B will allow him to meet his goal.



Looking at Drake's situation after 4 weeks, he only has $470 saved. By his original plan, he should have had $500 saved. So he's $30 short of his goal and has 2 weeks until his originally planned class. If he goes with option A and takes the later class, he will save an additional $125 which is more than enough to make up the $30 short fall. So option A will work for him to save enough money for his class. With option B, he will save $140 for the last 2 weeks of his plan giving him a savings of $280 for the last 2 weeks. Adding the $470 he's already saved will give him a total savings of $470 + $280 = $750 which is enough for him to attend his class. So option B will also allow Drake to attend his desired class. Both options A and B allow him to meet his goal. Hence, the answer is "c".
