Lorraine computed a confidence interval for µ based on a sample of size 41. Since she did not know σ, she used s in her calculat

ions. Lorraine used the normal distribution for the confidence interval instead of a Student's t distribution. Will her interval be longer or shorter than one obtained by using an appropriate Student's t distribution? Explain.

Answer:

Shorter

Step-by-step explanation:

When given the population standard deviation, σ, the normal distribution should be used. However, if the sample standard deviation is being used, the t distribution should be used. The implication of using a normal distribution in Lorraine's case when using the sample standard deviation which requires the use of the T - distribution is that, the interval beacjbea smaller as the critical value obtained is smaller than the T critical value with degree of freedom, n - 1 ; 41 - 1 = 40

At α = 0.05 ;

Tcritical, df = 40 = 2.02

Zcritical = 1.96

A store has a sale with 20% off every item. When you enter the store, you receive a coupon that states that you receive an addit
mr_godi [17]
No, because let’s say for example that something cost $100.00 so you take 20% (or $20) off of the 100 and you’re left with $80.00. Well then you have your 10% off coupon so you take 10% off of 80, which is 8 dollars. So now you’re at $72.00.

But if we just took off 30% from 100 originally, you would be at $70.00

So no it wouldn’t be the same. If you wanted to check the idea yourself just use different numbers and see if they match at the end.
