Answer:

a)

CI = ( 1.2718, 8.0614 )

Since value 2 is contained within Confidence Interval, fail to Reject H₀

b)

CI = ( -2.2296, 3.0296 )

Since value 2 is contained within Confidence Interval, fail to Reject H₀

c)

CI = ( 0.2962, 4.4538 )

Since value 2 is contained within Confidence Interval, fail to Reject H₀

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

Variance σ² = 9

so standard deviation σ = √9 = 3

with 95% confidence interval in each case. thus, The Z value for 95% confidence is Z = 1.96

Null Hypotheses  H₀ : μ = 2

Now

a)  (8,1,5)

sample mean x" = (8+1+5)  / 3 = 14/3 = 4.6666

n = 3

Confidence Interval CI = x" ± ( z × σ/√n )

CI = 4.6666 ± ( 1.96 × 3/√3 )

CI = 4.6666 ± 3.3948

so CI = ( 1.2718, 8.0614 )

Since value 2 is contained within Confidence Interval, fail to Reject H₀

b)  (8,1,5,-4,-8)  

sample mean X" =  (8 +1 + 5 - 4 - 8)  / 5 = 2 / 5 = 0.4

n = 5  

Confidence Interval CI = x" ± ( z × σ/√n )

CI = 0.4 ± ( 1.96 × 3/√5 )

CI = 0.4 ± 2.6296

so CI = ( -2.2296, 3.0296 )

Since value 2 is contained within Confidence Interval, fail to Reject H₀

c)  (8,1,5,-4,-8,4,8,5)

sample mean x" = (8 + 1 + 5 - 4 - 8 + 4 + 8 + 5)   / 8 = 19 / 8 = 2.375

n = 8

Confidence Interval CI = x" ± ( z × σ/√n )

CI = 2.375 ± ( 1.96 × 3/√8 )

CI = 2.375 ± 2.0788

so CI = ( 0.2962, 4.4538 )

Since value 2 is contained within Confidence Interval, fail to Reject H₀

A bookstore marks up the price of a book by 25% of the cost from the publisher. Therefore, the
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

(A)

  • P(60) = 78.98
  • When the bookstore spends $60 on a textbook, the student pays $78.98

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

P(x) = 1.053(x+0.25x)

P(60) = 1.053(60+0.25*60)

=1.053(60+15)

=1.053(75)

P(60)=$78.98

Since x is the cost from the publisher, when the bookstore spends $60 on a textbook, the student pays $78.98.

<u>The correct option is A.</u>

Which equation can be used to verify that 534 – 68 = 466?
IgorC [24]

Answer:

466 + 68

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily check a subtraction problem with an addition problem.

Calculate the sum of the subtracted and the difference. If the sum is equal to the minuend in the original subtraction problem, the answer is correct.

Minuend - Subtrahend = Difference

466 + 68 = 534

The statement '534 – 68 = 466' is correct.

Hope this helps.

Five cubes are lined up to form a solid. The side lengths of the cubes are 1 ft, 2 ft, 3 ft, 4 ft, and 5 ft. What is the volume
sdas [7]
First, you find the volume of each individual cube, and then you add everything up.  

 1^3 +2^3+3^3+4^3 + 5^3 = 225
