An article in Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise "Maximal Leg-Strength Training Improves Cycling Economy in Previously

Untrained Men," (2005, Vol. 37 pp. 131–1236) studied cycling performance before and after eight weeks of leg-strength training. Seven previously untrained males performed leg-strength training three days per week for eight weeks (with four sets of five replications at 85% of one repetition maximum). Peak power during incremental cycling increased to a mean of 315 watts with a standard deviation of 16 watts. Construct a 99% two-sided confidence interval for the mean peak power after training. Assume population is approximately normally distributed.

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the mean peak power after training is [299.4, 330.6]

299.4\leq\mu\leq 330.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to construct a 99% confidence interval for the mean.

A sample of n=7 males is taken. We know the sample mean = 315 watts and the sample standard deviation = 16 watts.

For a 99% confidence interval, the value of z is z=2.58.

We can calculate the confidence interval as:

M-z\sigma/\sqrt{n}\leq\mu\leq M+z\sigma/\sqrt{n}\\\\315-2.58*16/\sqrt{7}\leq\mu\leq 315+2.58*16/\sqrt{7}\\\\315-15.6\leq \mu\leq 315+15.6\\\\299.4\leq\mu\leq 330.6

The 99% confidence interval for the mean peak power after training is [299.4, 330.6]

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Sam is using an industrial kitchen to make several batches of his famous chocolate chip granola bars. He needs to weight out 78 ounces of chocolate chips, plus or minus 2.5 ounces. The equation that can be used to find the minimum or maximum amount,c, of chocolate chips that he can weigh out is-

Absolute value equation is = |c-2.5| = 78

Suppose each runner ran at the rate given in the table above for 3.1 miles. How much time will elapse between the first place fi
Scilla [17]
You didn't include the table but I found this table for the same statement, so I will answer you based on the next table:

Runner         distance           time

Arabella        7,299 feet        561 seconds
Bettina          3,425 yards     13 minutes, 12 seconds
Chandra       8,214 feet        0,195 hours
Divya            1,62 miles        732 seconds

To answer the question you must find the rate for each runner and then calculate the time to run 3.1 miles at each rate.

First you need to convert the data to obtain the rate in miles per second.

These are the main conversion identities:

1 mile = 5280 feet

1 mile = 1760 yards

1 hour = 3600 seconds

1 hour = 60 minutes

1 minute = 60 seconds

Arabella:

rate: 7,229 feet / 561 seconds * (1 mile / 5280 feet)  =

= 0.00244 mile/second

Time to run 3.1 miles: V = d / t => t = d / V = 3.1 miles / 0.00244 mile/second = 1270 seconds

Bettina:

13 minutes + 12 seconds = 13*60 seconds +12 seconds = 792 seconds

rate = 3425 yards / 792 seconds * 1 mile / 1760 yards = 0.00246 mile/seconds

Time to run 3.1 miles = 3.1 miles / 0.00246 mile/second = 1260 seconds

Chandra:

rate = 8214 feet / 0.195 hours * 1 mile / 5280 feet * 1hour / 3600 seconds =

= 0.00222 seconds

Time = 3.1 mile / 0.00222 seconds = 0.389 hour = 1396 seconds

Divya:

rate = 1.62 miles / 732 seconds = 0.00221 seconds

Time = 3.1 mile / 0.00221 seconds = 1403 seconds

Now you can find the difference between fhe last and the first 1403 seconds - 1260 seconds = 143 seconds

That is equivalent to 2.38 seconds.
