Answer:

95% Confidence Interval is; (  -5.344 to 11.344 )

Option b) -5.344 to 11.344 is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Sample 1                 Sample 2

x"₁ = 45                   x"₂ = 42

S₁² = 85                  S₂² = 90

n₁ = 10                    n₂ = 12

df = [ S₁²/n₁ +  S₂²/n₂ ]² / [ ((S₁²/n₁)²/n₁-1) +  ((S₂²/n₂)²/n₂-1)) ]

we substitute

df = [ 10/10 +  90/12 ]² / [ ((85/10)²/10-1) +  ((90/12)²/12-1)) ] = 19.64 ≈ 20

df = 20

with 95% confidence interval

∝ = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05

∝/2 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

now, t_{\alpha /2,df} = t_{0.025, 20} = 2.086    { from table }

95% confidence interval for N1 - N2

⇒ (x"₁ - x"₂) ± t_{\alpha /2,df} × √( S₁²/n₁ +  S₂²/n₂ )

⇒ (45 - 42) ± 2.086 × √( 85/10 +  90/12 )

⇒ 3 ± 2.086 × 4

⇒ 3 ± 8.344

so;

Lower Limit = 3 - 8.344 = -5.344

Upper Limit = 3 + 8.344 = 11.344

Therefore, 95% Confidence Interval is; (  -5.344 to 11.344 )

Option b) -5.344 to 11.344 is the correct answer

What is a common factor?
dybincka [34]
Factors are the numbers you multiply together to get another number. When you find the factors of two or more numbers, and then find some factors are the same ("common"), then they are the "common factors<span>"

</span>Example: 12 and 30
• The factors of 12 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 12
• The factors of 30 are: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15 and 30
<span>So the common factors of 12 and 30 are: 1, 2, 3 and 6
</span>
-Hope this helped.

gladu [14]

Answer:

The surface area of the structure is SA=2,500\pi\ m^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The surface area of a sphere is equal to

SA=4\pi r^{2}

In this problem we have

r=50/2=25\ m -----The radius is half the diameter

substitute

SA=4\pi (25)^{2}

SA=2,500\pi\ m^{2}
