A sportswriter wishes to see if a football filled with helium travels farther, on average, than a football filled with air. To t

est this hypothesis, the writer uses 18 male subjects, randomly divided into two groups of 9 subjects each. Group 1 kicks a football filled with helium to the recommended pressure, while Group 2 kicks a football filled with air to the same pressure. The sample mean yardage for Group 1 was barx2 = 30 yards with a standard deviation of s1 = 8 yards. The mean yardage for Group 2 was barx2 = 25 yards with a standard deviation of s2 = 6 yards. Assume that the two groups of kicks are independent. Let μ1 and μ2 represent the mean yardage we would observe for the entire population represented by the volunteers if all members of this population kicked, respectively, a helium-filled football and an air-filled football. Let σ1 and σ2 be the corresponding population standard deviations. Assuming two-sample t procedures are safe to use, what is a 99% confidence interval for μ1 – μ2?
A) 4 ± 7.7 yards.B) 4 ± 11.2 yards.C) 4 ± 4.7 yards.D) 4 ± 6.2 yards.

Answer:

5 ± 9.74

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval, two - sample, t procedure ;

μ1 - μ2 = (x1 - x2) ± Tcritical*S

S = sqrt[(s1²/n1) + (s2²/n2)]

n1 = 9 ; n2 = 9 ; s1 = 8 ; s2 = 6 ; x1 = 30 ; x2 = 25

S = sqrt[(8^2/9) + (6^2/9)]

S = sqrt[11.111111]

S = 3.333

Tcritical at 99% confidence interval

df = 18 - 2= 16

Tcritical = 2.92

(30 - 25) ± 2.92*(3.333)

5 ± 9.74

Determine the radius, to the nearest inch, of a large can of tuna fish that has a volume of 66 cubic
Mnenie [13.5K]

The radius of can is 2.524 inches

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that large can of tuna fish that has a volume of 66 cubic  inches and a height of 3.3 inches

To find: Radius

Given a large can of tuna fish, we know that can is generally of cylinder shape, we can use the volume of cylinder formula,

<em><u>The volume of cylinder is given as:</u></em>

\text{ volume of cylinder}= \pi r^{2} h$

Where,

"r" is the radius of cylinder

"h" is the height of cylinder

\pi is a constant equal to 3.14

Substituting the given values in above formula,

66 = 3.14 \times r^2 \times 3.3\\\\66 = r^2 \times 10.362\\\\r^2 = \frac{66}{10.362}\\\\r^2 = 6.369\\\\r = 2.524

Thus the radius of can is 2.524 inches

the sum of two numbers is 9. if one number is subtracted from the other, the result is 3. find the numbers
irakobra [83]
X, y - the numbers

The sum of the two numbers is 9.
x+y=9

If one number is subtracted from the other, the result is 3.
x-y=3

Solve the system of equations:
x+y=9 \\&#10;\underline{x-y=3} \\&#10;x+x=9+3 \\&#10;2x=12 \ \ \ |\div 2 \\&#10;x=6 \\ \\&#10;x+y=9 \\&#10;6+y=9 \ \ \ |-6 \\&#10;y=3

The numbers are 6 and 3.
