Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the true average number of homes that a person owns in his or her lifetime is (4,6.2).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom,which is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 50 - 1 = 49

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 49 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975. So we have T = 2.0096

The margin of error is:

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.0096\frac{3.8}{\sqrt{50}} = 1.1

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 5.1 - 1.1 = 4

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 5.1 + 1.1 = 6.2.

The 95% confidence interval for the true average number of homes that a person owns in his or her lifetime is (4,6.2).

How do I solve this and what kind of formula is it?
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

160

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of an arc is always twice the degree of the corresponding angle inside the circle. For example, the measure of arc DC is just double the measure of angle DOC; angle DOC is 44 degrees, so arc DC must be 88 degrees.

Angle COB is 80 degrees, so arc CB is 160 degrees.
