Answer:

a) The margin of error for a 90% confidence interval when n = 14 is 18.93.

b) The margin of error for a 90% confidence interval when n=28 is 12.88.

c) The margin of error for a 90% confidence interval when n = 45 is 10.02.

Step-by-step explanation:

The t-distribution is used to solve this question:

a) n = 14

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

90% 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 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95. So we have T = 1.7709

The margin of error is:

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.7709\frac{40}{\sqrt{14}} = 18.93

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

The margin of error for a 90% confidence interval when n = 14 is 18.93.

b) n = 28

27 df, T = 1.7033

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.7033\frac{40}{\sqrt{28}} = 12.88

The margin of error for a 90% confidence interval when n=28 is 12.88.

c) The margin of error for a 90% confidence interval when n = 45 is

44 df, T = 1.6802

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.6802\frac{40}{\sqrt{45}} = 10.02

The margin of error for a 90% confidence interval when n = 45 is 10.02.

A force of 50 pounds acts on an object at an angle of 45 degrees. A second force of 75 pounds acts on the object at an angle of
Contact [7]

Answer:

The magnitude of the resultant force is:

R=100.3 \:pound

The direction is:

\theta=1.2^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the components of each vector is x and y-directions first.

<u>Sum of x-component vector forces.</u>

F_{tot-x}=F_{1}cos(45)+F_{2}cos(30)

F_{tot-x}=50cos(45)+75cos(30)

F_{tot-x}=100.3 \: pound

<u>Sum of y-component vector forces.</u>

F_{tot-y}=-F_{1}sin(45)+F_{2}sin(30)

F_{tot-y}=-50sin(45)+75sin(30)

F_{tot-y}=2.1 \: pound  

The magnitude of the resultant force is:

R=\sqrt{100.3^{2}+2.1^{2}}

R=100.3 \:pound

The direction is:

tan(\theta)=\frac{2.1}{100.3}

\theta=arctan(\frac{2.1}{100.3})

\theta=1.2^{\circ}

I hope it helps you!
