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

You earn $7.50 per hour at a fast food restaurant. You earned $123.75 last week. How many hours did you work last week?
ladessa [460]
I believe you would need to divide 123.75 by 7.50.

The equation would look something like this:
7.50x=123.75
Where x = # of hours worked
123.75 / 7.50 = 16.5
so x = 16.5
You worked for 16.5 hours

Find the equation of the line through the point (2, 5) that cuts off the least area from the first quadrant. Give your answer us
Amanda [17]

The equation of the line would be

y = mx+b 

where m is the slope, b is the y intercept. 

<span>The line will form a triangular region in the first quadrant. Its area would be 1/2 base times height. The height is the y intercept and the base is y intercept divided by slope. Therefore,</span>

A = b^2/2m

At point (2,5)

5 = 2m+b

Substitute that in the area

A = b^2/5-b to find the least area, differentiate the area with respect to the height and equate it to 0 

dA/db = 0

<span>find b and use that to find m. Then, you can have the equation of the line.</span>
