Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

80% confidence interval for the true mean difference between the mean amount of mail-order purchases and the mean amount of internet purchases ( $\mu_1-\mu_2$ ) is [-9.132 , 23.332].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a random sample of 7 sales receipts for mail-order sales results in a mean sale amount of $81.70 with a standard deviation of $18.75.

A random sample of 11 sales receipts for internet sales results in a mean sale amount of $74.60 with a standard deviation of $28.25.

Firstly, the Pivotal quantity for 80% confidence interval for the difference between population means is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{(\bar X_1-\bar X_2)-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}{s_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} } }$ ~ $t__n__1-_n__2-2$

where, $\bar X_1$ = sample mean sales receipts for mail-order sales = $81.70

$\bar X_2$ = sample mean sales receipts for internet sales = $74.60

$s_1$ = sample standard deviation for mail-order sales = $18.75

$s_2$ = sample standard deviation for internet sales = $28.25

$n_1$ = size of sales receipts for mail-order sales = 7

$n_2$ = size of sales receipts for internet sales = 11

Also, $s_p=\sqrt{\frac{(n_1-1)s_1^{2} +(n_2-1)s_2^{2} }{n_1+n_2-2} }$ = $\sqrt{\frac{(7-1)\times 18.75^{2} +(11-1)\times 28.25^{2} }{7+11-2} }$ = 25.11

Here for constructing 80% confidence interval we have used Two-sample t test statistics as we don't know about population standard deviations.

So, 80% confidence interval for the difference between population means, ( $\mu_1-\mu_2$ ) is ;

P(-1.337 < $t_1_6$ < 1.337) = 0.80 {As the critical value of t at 16 degree

of freedom are -1.337 & 1.337 with P = 10%}

P(-1.337 < $\frac{(\bar X_1-\bar X_2)-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}{s_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} } }$ < 1.337) = 0.80

P( $-1.337 \times {s_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} } }$ < ${(\bar X_1-\bar X_2)-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}$ < $1.337 \times {s_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} } }$ ) = 0.80

P( $(\bar X_1-\bar X_2)-1.337 \times {s_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} } }$ < ( $\mu_1-\mu_2$ ) < $(\bar X_1-\bar X_2)+1.337 \times {s_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} } }$ ) = 0.80

80% confidence interval for ( $\mu_1-\mu_2$ ) =

[ $(\bar X_1-\bar X_2)-1.337 \times {s_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} } }$ , $(\bar X_1-\bar X_2)+1.337 \times {s_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} } }$ ]

= [ $(81.70-74.60)-1.337 \times {25.11 \times \sqrt{\frac{1}{7} +\frac{1}{11} } }$ , $(81.70-74.60)+1.337 \times {25.11 \times \sqrt{\frac{1}{7} +\frac{1}{11} } }$ ]

= [-9.132 , 23.332]

Therefore, 80% confidence interval for the true mean difference between the mean amount of mail-order purchases and the mean amount of internet purchases ( $\mu_1-\mu_2$ ) is [-9.132 , 23.332].

Reyna runs a textile company that manufactures T-shirts. The profit, p, made by the company is modeled by the function

Mkey [24]

The question is incomplete:

Reyna runs a textile company that manufactures T-shirts. The profit, p, made by the company is modeled by the function p = s^2+9s-142, where s is the number of T-shirts sold. How many T-shirts should be sold to earn a profit of more than $2,000?

Answer:

s>42

Reyna needs to sell more than 42 T-shirts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that you have to find the amount of T-shirts that should be sold to earn a profit of more than $2,000, you have to find the amount required to earn $2,000 by replacing p with 2,000 and solving for s:

s^2+9s-142=2000

s^2+9s-2142=0

(s+ $\frac{9}{2}$ )^2-2142-( $\frac{9}{2}$ )^2=0
