imate at the 85% level of confidence. For a sample of 295 third graders, the mean words per minute read was 26.9. Assume a population standard deviation of 2.7. Construct the confidence interval for the mean number of words a third grader can read per minute. Round your answers to one decimal place

Answer:

<em> 85% level of the confidence interval is</em>

<em>(26.337, 26.662)</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>:-

Given the size of the sample 'n' = 295

Mean of the sample x⁻ = 26.5

The Standard deviation of the Population = 2.7

85% level of the confidence interval is determined by

(x^{-} - Z_{0.15} \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} + Z_{0.15} \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} })

Critical value Z₀.₁₅ = 1.036

<em> 85% level of the confidence interval is determined by</em>

(x^{-} - Z_{0.15} \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} + Z_{0.15} \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} })

(26.9 -1.036 \frac{2.7}{\sqrt{295} } , 26.5 + 1.036 \frac{2.7}{\sqrt{295} })

( 26.5 - 0.1628 , 26.5+0.1628)

(26.3372,26.6628)

What is the value of n in the relationship 8n+9=-n+5
vitfil [10]
Subtract 5 from both sides.

8n + 4 = -n

Subtract 8n from both sides.

4 = -9n

Divide both sides by -9 to solve for n.

- \frac{4}{9} = n

The value of n is -4/9.

How do you do this math problem??<br><br><br> BRAINLEST for anyone who helps and explains!!
guapka [62]

Answer:

It is angle k and angle l

Step-by-step explanation:

When opposite sides are given, especially for a right triangle, the longer the length the bigger the angle. The hypotenuse, which is across the right angle is always longest. The shortest side will always have the smallest angle. Check the image if it helps.

What is the product of 7/16,4/3,1/2<br> I don't know how to do it I need help please
Elza [17]
Hi , 7/16 times 4/3 times 1/2 equals to 28/96 because 7times4 times 1 equals to 28 and 16 times 3 times 2 equals to (28/96).The answer is also equivalent to 7/24.
