A researcher wants to estimate the mean commute time of residents in Westchester County. The researcher samples 40 commuters and

find the mean commute time to be 25 minutes. Assume the population standard deviation for commute time is 12.5 minutes. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the mean commute time of residents in Westchester County. What is the Lower Bound of the confidence interval

Answer:

21.759

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean (m) = 25

Standard deviation (s) = 12.5

Sample size (n) = 40

α = 90%

The confidence interval is obtained using the relation:

Mean ± Zcritical * s/sqrt(n)

Zcritical at 90% confidence interval = 1.64

25 ± 1.64 * (12.5/sqrt(40))

Lower boundary : 25 - 1.64(1.9764235) = 21.75866546

Upper boundary : 25 + 1.64(1.9764235) = 28.24133454

(21.759, 28.241)

Hence, lower bound of confidence interval is : 21.759

HELP LOOK AT THE SCREENSHOT<br><br> Find the value of x. (SHOW WORK)
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:  x = 2

=============================================================

Explanation:

Refer to the diagram below.

I've added points D,E,F,G. This helps with labeling the segments and angles, and identifying the proper triangles (to see which are congruent pairs).

Triangle GEA is congruent to triangle GFA. We can prove this using the AAS congruence theorem. We have AG = AG as the pair of congruent sides, and the congruent pairs of angles are marked in the diagram (specifically the blue pairs of angles and the gray right angle markers)

Since triangle GEA is congruent to triangle GFA, this means the corresponding pieces segment GF and GE are the same length.

The diagram shows GF = 3x-4, so this means GE = 3x-4 as well.

----------------------

Through similar steps, we can show that triangle GEC is congruent to triangle GDC. We also use AAS here as well.

The congruent triangles lead to GD = GE. So GD = 3x-4. The diagram shows that GD = 6x-10

Since GD is equal to both 3x-4 and 6x-10, this must mean the two expressions are equal.

----------------------

Now let's solve for x

6x-10 = 3x-4

6x-3x = -4+10

3x = 6

x = 6/3

x = 2

Lorena bought groceries for $102.34 and new shoes for $53.36. How much did Lorena spend on groceries and shoes altogether?
leonid [27]
Hello! So for this question, all you have to do is add the numbers up to get the total cost. Groceries were $102.34 and the new shoes were $53.36. 102.34 + 53.36 = 155.7. Lorena spent $155.70 total.
