32 days bcz 1250 meters took 120 hours (120 hrs=5 days) so 8000 m will take: 8000x120/1250= 768 hrs
782 hrs/24= 32 days

The sugar content of the syrup in canned peaches is normally distributed. A random sample of n = 10 cans yields a sample standar

Serggg [28]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval is given by:

3.30<σ<8.76

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

s=4.798 represent the sample standard deviation

$\bar x$ represent the sample mean

n=10 the sample size

Confidence=95% or 0.95

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population mean or variance lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

The Chi Square distribution is the distribution of the sum of squared standard normal deviates .

2) Calculating the confidence interval

The confidence interval for the population variance is given by the following formula:

$\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{\alpha/2}} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{1-\alpha/2}}$

The next step would be calculate the critical values. First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

$df=n-1=10-1=9$

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a tabel to find the critical values.

The excel commands would be: "=CHISQ.INV(0.025,9)" "=CHISQ.INV(0.975,9)". so for this case the critical values are:

$\chi^2_{\alpha/2}=19.022$

$\chi^2_{1- \alpha/2}=2.700$

And replacing into the formula for the interval we got:

$\frac{(9)(4.798)^2}{19.022} \leq \sigma \frac{(9)(4.798)^2}{2.700}$

$10.892 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 76.736$

Now we just take square root on both sides of the interval and we got:

$3.30 \leq \sigma \leq 8.76$

So the best option would be:

3.30<σ<8.76

A serving size for pineapple-orange punch is 1/2 cup. Liam needs to make 72 servings of punch. He will use 8 pints of pineapple

Luden [163]

Since a serving is 1/2 cup and he needs 72 servings you can multiply 72 by 1/2 and find out that he needs to make 36 cups of punch. Two cups is a pint so he needs (36 / 2) 18 pints of juice. He already has the 8 pints of pineapple juice so 18 - 8 leaves 10 pints of orange juice.
