Answer:

they have different answers

Step-by-step explanation:

X - 13 = 4 and 13 - X = 4

for x- 13 = 4

x=4+13=17

x=17

for 13 - x = 4

13-4-x=0

9-x=0

9=x

x=9

Let us suppose we have data on the absorbency of paper towels that were produced by two different manufacturing processes. From

maksim [4K]

Answer:

The 95% CI for the difference of means is:

$-155.45 \leq \mu_1-\mu_2 \leq -44.55$

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The question is incomplete:</em>

<em>"Find a 95% confidence interval on the difference of the towels mean absorbency produced by the two processes. Assumed that the standard deviations are estimated from the data. Round to two decimals places."</em>

Process 1:

- Sample size: 10

- Mean: 200

- S.D.: 15

Process 2:

- Sample size: 4

- Mean: 300

- S.D.: 50

The difference of the sample means is:

$M_d=M_1-M_2=200-300=-100$

The standard deviation can be estimated as:

$\sigma_d=\sqrt{\frac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1}+\frac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2}}\\\\\sigma_d=\sqrt{\frac{15^2}{10}+\frac{50^2}{4}} =\sqrt{22.5+625}=\sqrt{647.5}=25.45$

The degrees of freedom are:

$df=n_1+n_2-2=10+4-2=12$

The t-value for a 95% confidence interval and 12 degrees of freedom is t=±2.179.

Then, the confidence interval can be written as:

$M_d-t\cdot \sigma_d\leq \mu_1-\mu_2 \leq M_d+t\cdot \sigma_d\\\\-100-2.179*25.45\leq \mu_1-\mu_2 \leq -100+2.179*25.45\\\\-100-55.45 \leq \mu_1-\mu_2 \leq -100+55.45\\\\ -155.45 \leq \mu_1-\mu_2 \leq -44.55$

allsm [11]

Answer:

3. $600,000

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a tenant rented a store to use as a real estate school at a base rent of $1,500 a month. Additionally, the tenant agreed to pay 3% of gross annual sales over $200,000.

Let us find base annual rent.

$\text{Base annual rent}=\$1500\times 12\\\\ \text{Base annual rent}=\$18,000$
