A random sample of 9 wheels of cheese yielded the following weights in pounds has a sample mean of 20.90 and a sample variance o

Ronch [10]

Answer:

$2.002 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 11.365$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

s represent the sample standard deviation

$s^2$ represent the sample variance

n=9 the sample size

Confidence=90% or 0.90

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population mean or variance lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

The Chi Square distribution is the distribution of the sum of squared standard normal deviates .

2) Calculating the confidence interval

The confidence interval for the population variance is given by the following formula:

$\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{\alpha/2}} \leq \sigma \frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{1-\alpha/2}}$

On this case we need to find the sample standard deviation with the following formula:

$s=sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^9 (x_i -\bar x)^2}{n-1}}
The sample variance given was [tex]s^2=3.45$

The next step would be calculate the critical values. First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

$df=n-1=9-1=8$

Since the Confidence is 0.90 or 90%, the value of $\alpha=0.1$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical values.

The excel commands would be: "=CHISQ.INV(0.05,8)" "=CHISQ.INV(0.95,8)". so for this case the critical values are:

$\chi^2_{\alpha/2}=15.507$

$\chi^2_{1- \alpha/2}=2.732$

And replacing into the formula for the interval we got:

$\frac{(9)(3.45)}{15.507} \leq \sigma \frac{(9)(3.45)}{2.732}$

$2.002 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 11.365$

Pablo wants to build a rectangular pen for the pig he is raising in his agriculture class. Pablo only has 36 feet of fencing. Wh

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Area of the rectangular pen is: $18 \,x-x^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to specify that the perimeter of the rectangular area of side x adds to the amount of fence Pablo has (36 feet). Recall as well that the opposite sides of a rectangle are equal, so if there is a side of length x, there must be another one of this size as well (a total of 2 x in the perimeter),let's assume that the perpendicular sides to x are of length y, then:

Perimeter= 2 x + 2 y = 36

so, 2 (x+y) = 36 then (x+y) = 18

and therefore the side y should be:

y = 18 - x

Now we can write the formula for representing the area of the rectangle (product of both quantities: x * y

$Area=x\,*\,y = x\,(18-x) =18 \,x-x^2$
