Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the true mean checking account balance for local customers is ($439.29, $888.99).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 14 - 1 = 13

99% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 13 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.995. So we have T = 3.0123

The margin of error is:

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 3.0123\frac{279.29}{\sqrt{14}} = 224.85

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 664.14 - 224.85 = $439.29

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 664.14 + 224.85 = $888.99.

The 99% confidence interval for the true mean checking account balance for local customers is ($439.29, $888.99).

First, convert 7 kilometers to meters, which is 7000 meters.
Add that to 400, and now you he ran 7400 meters.
Now convert 1.6 kilometers to meters, which is 1600 meters.
Add that to 7400, and the total is 9000 meters.

Hope this helped!

1. Write the equation for a line in point slope form that had a slope of 4 and passes through (1,1)
Dahasolnce [82]

Solution:

<u>Note that:</u>

  • Slope = m = 4
  • Given point: (x₁,y₁) = (1,1) [x₁ = 1; y₁ = 1]
  • Formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

<u>Use the formula to convert the line in point slope form.</u>

  • y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
  • y - 1 = 4(x - 1)

The equation of the line (In point slope form) is y - 1 = 4(x - 1).
