A research engineer for a tire manufacturer is investigating tire life for a new rubber compound and has built 16 tires and test

frutty [35]

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for mean tire life is between 52,368.4 kilometers and 67,911 kilometers.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are in posession of the sample's standard deviation, so we use the students t-distribution 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 = 16 - 1 = 15

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 15 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975. So we have T = 2.68

The margin of error is:

M = T*s = 2.1315*3645.94 = 7771.3

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 60139.7 - 7771.3 = 52,368.4.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 60139.7 + 7771.3 = 67,911.

The 95% confidence interval for mean tire life is between 52,368.4 kilometers and 67,911 kilometers.

X+2y=8<br>2x-y=1<br>mathe question

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

x = 2 and y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

x+2y = 8 -----equation (i)

2x-y = 1 -----equation (ii)

Now,

x+2y = 8

or, x = 8-2y ------equation (iii)

Again,

2x-y = 1

or, 2x = 1+y

or, 2x-1 = y

Putting the value of 'x' from equation (iii)

or, 2(8-2y)-1 = y

or, 16-4y-1 = y

or, 16-1 = y+4y

or, 15 = 5y

or, y = 15/5

or, y = 3

Putting the value of 'y' in equation (iii)

x = 8-2y

or, x = 8-(2×3)

or, x = 8-6

or, x = 2

Therefore, x = 2 and y = 3.

A line that passes through the points (–4, 10) and (–1, 5) can be represented by the equation y = y equals negative StartFractio

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

y=-\frac{5}{3} x+\frac{10}{3} or what is the same: $5x+3y=10$

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find the slope of the line that goes through the points (-4,10) and (-1,5) using the slope formula: $slope=\frac{10-5}{-4-(-1)} =\frac{5}{-3} =-\frac{5}{3}$

Now we use this slope in the general form of the slope- y_intercept of a line:

$y=-\frac{5}{3} x+b$

We can determine the parameter "b" by requesting the condition that the line has to go through the given points, and we can use one of them to solve for "b" (for example requesting that the point (-1,5) is on the line:

$y=-\frac{5}{3} x+b\\5=-\frac{5}{3} (-1)+b\\5=\frac{5}{3}+b\\5-\frac{5}{3}=b\\b=\frac{10}{3}$

Therefore, the equation of the line in slope y_intercept form is:

$y=-\frac{5}{3} x+\frac{10}{3}$

Notice that this equation can also be written in an equivalent form by multiplying both sides of the equal sign by "3", which allows us to write it without denominators:

$y=-\frac{5}{3} x+\frac{10}{3}\\3*y=(-\frac{5}{3} x+\frac{10}{3})*3\\3y=-5x+10\\5x+3y=10$
