Answer:

95.60$

Step-by-step explanation:

50% discount is basically the price divided by 2. So if we inverse it it will become x2. 47.80x2=95.6

In 1998, as an advertising campaign, the Nabisco Company announced a "1000 Chips Challenge," claiming that every 18-ounce bag of

Answer:

A 95% confidence interval for the mean number of chips in a bag of Chips Ahoy Cookies is [1187.96, 1288.44].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that statistics students at the Air Force Academy (no kidding) purchased some randomly selected bags of cookies and counted the chocolate chips.

Some of their data are given below; 1219, 1214, 1087, 1200, 1419, 1121, 1325, 1345, 1244, 1258, 1356, 1132, 1191, 1270, 1295, 1135.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for finding the confidence interval for the population mean is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ $t_n_-_1$

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean number of chocolate chips = $\frac{\sum X}{n}$ = 1238.2

s = sample standard deviation = $\sqrt{\frac{\sum (X-\bar X)^{2} }{n-1} }$ = 94.3

n = sample of car drivers = 16

$\mu$ = population mean number of chips in a bag

Here for constructing a 95% confidence interval we have used a One-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about population standard deviation.

So, 95% confidence interval for the population mean, $\mu$ is ;

P(-2.131 < $t_1_5$ < 2.131) = 0.95 {As the critical value of t at 15 degrees of

freedom are -2.131 & 2.131 with P = 2.5%}

P(-2.131 < $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < 2.131) = 0.95

P( $-2.131 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < ${\bar X-\mu}$ < $2.131 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.95

P( $\bar X-2.131 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < $\mu$ < $\bar X+2.131 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.95

95% confidence interval for $\mu$ = [ $\bar X-2.131 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ , $\bar X+2.131 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ]

= [ $1238.2-2.131 \times {\frac{94.3}{\sqrt{16} } }$ , $1238.2+2.131 \times {\frac{94.3}{\sqrt{16} } }$ ]

= [1187.96, 1288.44]

Therefore, a 95% confidence interval for the mean number of chips in a bag of Chips Ahoy Cookies is [1187.96, 1288.44].
