Explanation:

Abraham Lincoln recognized the importance of the city on a 200-foot bluff just above Colorado river. He said, "Vicksburg is the best approach, the war could never be decided to bring to a close until another key is in our wallet." trying to capture Vicksburg would break the Trans-Mississippi confederate states from the east of the Mississippi as well as open the waterway to northern congestion along its total duration.

The following results come from two independent random samples taken of two populations.

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

$(a)\ \bar x_1 - \bar x_2 = 2.0$

$(b)\ CI =(1.0542,2.9458)$

$(c)\ CI = (0.8730,2.1270)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$n_1 = 60$ $n_2 = 35$

$\bar x_1 = 13.6$ $\bar x_2 = 11.6$

$\sigma_1 = 2.1$ $\sigma_2 = 3$

Solving (a): Point estimate of difference of mean

This is calculated as: $\bar x_1 - \bar x_2$

$\bar x_1 - \bar x_2 = 13.6 - 11.6$

$\bar x_1 - \bar x_2 = 2.0$

Solving (b): 90% confidence interval

We have:

$c = 90\%$

$c = 0.90$

Confidence level is: $1 - \alpha$

$1 - \alpha = c$

$1 - \alpha = 0.90$

$\alpha = 0.10$

Calculate $z_{\alpha/2}$

$z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.10/2}$

$z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.05}$

The z score is:

$z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.05} =1.645$

The endpoints of the confidence level is:

$(\bar x_1 - \bar x_2) \± z_{\alpha/2} * \sqrt{\frac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1}+\frac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2}}$

$2.0 \± 1.645 * \sqrt{\frac{2.1^2}{60}+\frac{3^2}{35}}$

$2.0 \± 1.645 * \sqrt{\frac{4.41}{60}+\frac{9}{35}}$

$2.0 \± 1.645 * \sqrt{0.0735+0.2571}$

$2.0 \± 1.645 * \sqrt{0.3306}$

$2.0 \± 0.9458$

Split

$(2.0 - 0.9458) \to (2.0 + 0.9458)$

$(1.0542) \to (2.9458)$

Hence, the 90% confidence interval is:

$CI =(1.0542,2.9458)$

Solving (c): 95% confidence interval

We have:

$c = 95\%$

$c = 0.95$

Confidence level is: $1 - \alpha$

$1 - \alpha = c$

$1 - \alpha = 0.95$

$\alpha = 0.05$

Calculate $z_{\alpha/2}$

$z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.05/2}$

$z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.025}$

The z score is:

$z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.025} =1.96$

The endpoints of the confidence level is:

$(\bar x_1 - \bar x_2) \± z_{\alpha/2} * \sqrt{\frac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1}+\frac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2}}$

$2.0 \± 1.96 * \sqrt{\frac{2.1^2}{60}+\frac{3^2}{35}}$

$2.0 \± 1.96* \sqrt{\frac{4.41}{60}+\frac{9}{35}}$

$2.0 \± 1.96 * \sqrt{0.0735+0.2571}$

$2.0 \± 1.96* \sqrt{0.3306}$

$2.0 \± 1.1270$

Split

$(2.0 - 1.1270) \to (2.0 + 1.1270)$

$(0.8730) \to (2.1270)$

Hence, the 95% confidence interval is:

$CI = (0.8730,2.1270)$

2/13 = 0.153846 In the decimal above, 1 is the first digit in the repeating pattern. What is the 279th digit?

svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

F

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6 digits in the repeating pattern.

279 / 6 = 46.5 remainder 3.

we care about the remainder as this is how many digits in. it is the 3rd digit in so is 3.
