A statistician selected a sample of 16 accounts receivable and determined the mean of the sample to be $5,000 with a standard de

viation of $400. He reported that the sample information indicated the mean of the population ranges from $4,739.80 to $5,260.20. He neglected to report what confidence level he had used. Based on the above information, determine the confidence level that was used. Assume the population has a normal distribution.

Answer:

The confidence level that was used is 0.25% .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that mean of the selected sample of 16 accounts is $5,000 and a standard deviation of $400.

It has also been reported that the sample information indicated the mean of the population ranges from $4,739.80 to $5,260.20. This represents the Confidence Interval for population mean.

<em>But we have to find that at what confidence level this information about range of population men has been stated.</em>

Since we know that Confidence Interval for population mean is given by :

   <em>C.I. for population mean = Sample mean(xbar) </em>\pm<em> z value * </em>\frac{Standard    deviation}{\sqrt{n} }<em />

i.e.,<em>if we have 95% C.I. = xbar </em>\pm<em> 1.96 * </em>\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }<em> .</em>

So, our Confidence Interval for population is written as :

 [$4,739.80 , $5,260.20] = $5000 \pm z value * \frac{400}{\sqrt{16} }

 $5000 - z value * 100 = $4739.80    { Solving these we get Z value = 2.602}

 $5000 + z value * 100 = $5260.20

In z table we find that at value of 2.60 the probability is 0.99534 so subtracting this from 1 we get confidence level for one tail i.e.0.5%(approx).

Therefore, for two tail Confidence level will be 0.5%/2 = 0.25% .

Angle θ = <em>x°</em>

Opposite Leg = 3

Hypotenuse = 8

<u>Step 2: Find </u><em><u>x°</u></em>

  1. Substitute [Sine]:                    sinx° = 3/8
  2. Inverse trig:                             x° = sin⁻¹(3/8)

In right triangle XYZ, ∠Y is the right angle and m∠X = 60°. If YZ = 4, what is XY?
daser333 [38]

Answer:

B is the best answer

The question is illustrated with the attached figure.

Required

Determine XY

To solve for XY, we make use of the tan function, which states that:

tan\theta = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}tanθ=

Hypotenuse

Opposite

In this case:

tan\ 60= \frac{YZ}{XY}tan 60=

XY

YZ

Substitute 4 for YZ

tan\ 60= \frac{4}{XY}tan 60=

XY

4

Make XY the subject

XY= \frac{4}{tan\ 60}XY=

tan 60

4

tan\ 60 =\sqrt 3tan 60=

3

So, the expression becomes:

XY = \frac{4}{\sqrt 3}XY=

4

Rationalize:

XY = \frac{4 * \sqrt 3}{\sqrt 3 * \sqrt 3}XY=

XY = \frac{4\sqrt 3}{3}XY=
