Answer: n = 14
Step-by-step explanation: margin of error = critical value × σ/√n
Where σ = population standard deviation = 1
n = sample size = ?
We are to construct a 99% confidence interval, hence the level of significance is 1%.
The critical value for 2 tailed test at 1% level of significance is gotten from a standard normal distribution table which is 2.58
Margin of error = 0.7
0.7 = 2.58×1/√n
0.7 = 2.58/√n
By cross multipying
0.7×√n = 2.58
By squaring both sides
0.7^2 × n = 2.58^2
0.49 × n = 6.6564
n = 6.6564/0.49
n = 14
So a decrease of 16% followed by an increase of 14% is the same as multiplying by 0.9576 (which is a decrease of 4.24%)
Answer:
9 unless the regular shirt and trousers dont count, in which case it's 4
If you subtract Betty's time for the swim, 27.948 seconds, from Nancy's time, 28.004 seconds, you will find that Betty was faster than Nancy by 0.056 seconds. She would be considered the winner of the 50-meter freestyle swim.
Yes but there is a very low chance
