It sort of depends where Sarah lives -.-

But if she starts high school when she's 15 (in 2021) and she graduates in 2024 it means high school is three years.

So 15 plus 3.

Sarah will be 18 when she graduates high school.

Answer:

4 questions

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a percentage of a number, you move the decimal mark all the way to the left.

87.5% becomes 0.875

Next you multiply 32 by 0.875 to find the percentage of questions that are completed

32 x 0.875 = 28

28 out of 32 questions have been solved, so now you subtract 28 from 32

32 - 28= 4

There are 4 questions to complete

Average speed is given by total distance traveled divided the total time taken.

Given that the distance from Mason's home to their son's college campus is 154 miles, then a round trip (to and fro) from their house to their son's college campus will be 2 * 154 = 308 miles and the journey took 5 and a half hours.

Therefore, the average speed is given by:

 $Average\, speed= \frac{308\, miles}{5.5\, hours} =56\, miles/hour$

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the mean would be given by (56.604;68.596)

The 99% confidence interval for the mean would be given by (53.196;72.004)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Previous concepts

When we compute a confidence interval for the mean, we are interested on the parameter population mean, and we use the info from the sample to estimate this parameter.

2) Basic operations

The sample mean can be calculated with the following formula

$\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{n}$

Using excel we can use this function to calculate the mean:

=AVERAGE(54.2,59.8,61.8,63.3,65.1,71.4)

The value obtained is $\bar X=62.6$

In order to find the sample deviation we can use this formula

$s=\sqrt{\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{(x_i-\bar X)^2}{n-1}}$

And using excel we can use this function to calculate the sample standard deviation:

=STDEV.S(54.2,59.8,61.8,63.3,65.1,71.4)

The value obtained is $s=5.713$

The sample size for this case is n=6, n<30 so then is better use the t distribution to calculate the margin of error. First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case $df=n-1=6-1=5$

The formula for the confidence interval would be given by:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

3) Part a

If we want a 95% or 0.95 of confidence, then the value for the signficance is $\alpha=1-0.95=0.05$ , and $\alpha/2=0.025$ , and $1-\frac{\alpha}{2}=0.975$ so we can find the critical t value with the following formula in excel:

=T.INV(0.975,5)

And we got $t_{\alpha/2}= 2.571$

And we can replace into equation (1) and we got:

$62.6 \pm 2.571\frac{5.713}{\sqrt{6}}$

And using excel with the following formulas we got:

=62.6-2.571*(5.713/SQRT(6)) = 56.604

=62.6+2.571*(5.713/SQRT(6)) = 68.596

So the 95% confidence interval for the mean would be given by (56.604;68.596)

4) Part b

If we want a 99% or 0.99 of confidence, then the value for the signficance is $\alpha=1-0.99=0.01$ , and $\alpha/2=0.005$ , and $1-\frac{\alpha}{2}=0.995$ so we can find the critical t value with the following formula in excel:
