A supervisor records the repair cost for 22 randomly selected VCRs. A sample mean of $75.50 and standard deviation of $18.07 are

subsequently computed. Determine the 99% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the VCRs. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 2 : Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answer:

The t value for 99% CI for 21 df is 2.831.

The critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is (64.593, 86.407).

Step-by-step explanation:

Now the sample size is less than 30 and also population standard deviation is not known.

Then we will use t distribution to find CI

t value for 99% CI for 21 df is TINV(0.01,21)=2.831

The margin of error is E=t\times\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=2.831\times\frac{18.07}{\sqrt{22}}\\\\=10.907

Hence CI isCI=\overline{x} \pm E\\\\ =75.50 \pm 10.907\\\\=(64.593,86.407 )

Let x be the number of 5 points question.
Let y be the number of 2 points question.

Total number of questions is 38
x + y = 38 

Total points is 100
5x + 2y = 100

x + y = 38 ------------- (1)
5x + 2y = 100 ---------(2)

From (1):
x + y = 38
x = 38 - y -------------- sub into (2)
5(38 - y) + 2y = 100
190 - 5y + 2y = 100
3y = 90
y = 30 ------------------ sub into (1)
x + 30 = 38
x = 38 - 30
x = 8

torisob [31]
The frog's jump represent a geometric series.
The sum of finite geometric series can be solved using the equation:
Sn = ao ( (1-r^n)/(1-r) )

Plugging in the values,
S8 = 1 ( (1-2^8)/(1-2) )
S8 = 255

Therefore, after 8 hops, the frog will have traveled 255 inches
