Answer:
c. (12.12, 18.48)
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello!
The study variable is X: number of times a racehorse is raced during its career.
The average number is X[bar]= 15.3 and the standard deviation is S= 6.8 obtained from a sample of n=20 horses.
To estimate the population mean you need that the variable has a normal distribution, in this case, we have no information about its distribution so I'll assume that it has a normal distribution. With n=20 the most accurate statistic to use for the estimation is a Students-t for one sample, the formula for the interval is:
X[bar] ± 

[15.3 ± 2.093 *
]
[12.12; 18.48]
Using a significance level of 95% you'd expect that the true average of times racehorses are raced during their career is included in the interval [12.12; 18.48].
I hope it helps!
Answer:
a. 9
b. 6
Step-by-step explanation:
a. z=12 - 3= 9
b. (36 - 18)/3= Z
Answer:
C. 2.0 < t < 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
time = distance / speed
The circumference of the lake is given by ...
C = πd = 2π miles ≈ 6.28 miles
Then Johanna's time is ...
(6.28 mi)/(3 mi/h) ≈ 2.09 h
This time is in the interval (2, 2.5), so matches choice C.
___
<em>Alternate solution</em>
If we take pi to be 3, then this boils down to ...
2×3/3 = 2 . . . hours
Pi is on the order of 5% more than 3, so her time will be on the order of 5% more than 2 hours, or just above 2, but not as great as 2.5 hours. This sort of estimating can get you to the correct answer without a calculator.
