You work for a soft-drink company in the quality control division. You are interested in the standard deviation of one of your p

roduction lines as a measure of consistency. The product is intended to have a mean of 12 ounces, and your team would like the standard deviation to be as low as possible. You gather a random sample of 15 containers. Estimate the population standard deviation at a 98% level of confidence.
12.05 12 11.96 12.14 12.12
11.97 11.96 12.11 11.94 11.82
12 12.18 11.91 12.06 11.99

(Data checksum: 180.21)

Note: Keep as many decimals as possible while making these calculations. If possible, keep all answers exact by storing answers as variables on your calculator or computer.

a) Find the sample standard deviation:

b) Find the lower and upper χ2χ2 critical values at 98% confidence:
Lower: Upper:

c) Report your confidence interval for σσ: ( , )

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

weight (x)                         ( x - \overline x)^2

12.05                               0.00123

12                                     0.00019

11.96                                0.00292

12.14                                0.0159

12.12                                0.00112

11.97                                0.0019

11.96                               0.0029

12.11                                 0.0092

11.94                                 0.0055

11.82                                0.038

12                                     0.00019

12.18                                0.028

11.91                                  0.0108

12.06                                0.0021

11.99                                  0.0029

\sum x = 180.21                    \sum (x - \overline x)^2 = 0.12285

Sample size = 15

\overline x = \dfrac{180.21}{15} = 12.014

Sample standard deviation

x = \sqrt{\dfrac{0.12285}{15-1}}

x = 0.0937

\text{degree of freedom = n - 1}

degree of freedom = 15- 1=14

\text{confidence interval} \alpha = 1- 0.98 = 0.02 \\ \\ \alpha/2 = 0.02/2 = 0.01

From \  X^2  \  table}\text{, the critical value} X^2 \text{=0.99 for degree of freedom =14 is given by : 4.660}

\text{, the critical value} X^2 \text{=0.01 for degree of freedom =14 is given by : 29.141}

\text{Thus, the lower limit = 4.660, the upper limit = 29.141}

\text{the confidence interval of the standard deviation} \ \sigma \  is:

\sqrt{\dfrac{(n -1)s^2}{X^2_{\dfrac{\sigma}{2}}} } \le \sigma \le \sqrt{\dfrac{(n -1)s^2}{X^2_{1-\dfrac{\sigma}{2}}} }

replacing our values:

\sqrt{\dfrac{(15 -1)0.0937^2}{29.141} } < \sigma

= 0.06495 < \sigma < 0.1624

\mathbf{Thus; \  \sigma (0.06495 , 0.1624)}

ꜱᴇᴇᴍꜱ ᴇᴀꜱʏ ᴊᴜꜱᴛ ᴄᴀɴ’ᴛ ꜰɪɢᴜʀᴇ ɪᴛ ᴏᴜᴛ
amid [387]

Answer:

123°

Step-by-step explanation:

2z +9 = x

y = z

2Z +9 + X + z +Y = 360

Substitute for Z

2Z +9 + 2z +9 + z + z = 360

6z +18 = 360

6Z = 342

Z = 57

2(57) +9 = 123

X = 123

Find the volume (in units3) generated when the region between the curves is rotated around the given axis. x = y2 and y = x rota
densk [106]

The volume (in units3) is generated when the region between the curves is rotated around the given axis.is  mathematically given as

v=\frac{5 \pi}{6}

<h3>What is the volume (in units3) generated when the region between the curves is rotated around the given axis. ?</h3>

The region is bound by

x=y^2

y=x

y=3

Where

y=√x

Generally, the equation for Washer Method is  mathematically given as

v=\int ^1_0 \pi ((outer curve)^2-(inner Curve)^2) dx

Therefore

v=\int_{0}^{1} \pi(-7 x)+\pi x^{2}+6 \pi \sqrt{x} d x

v=$\frac{5 \pi}{6}$

In conclusion, The result can be shown in multiple forms

Exact Form:

$\frac{5 \pi}{6}$

Decimal Form:

2.61799387

Somebody help !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
alexgriva [62]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The equation y=0.5x simply means that Joseph is hiking 0.5 miles every hour. This is because the x value is the independent variable or the thing you change, which in this case is the time you take hiking. The distance, the y-value, is dependent on that time.

Now, let's look at Kelly's graph. This graph isn't a grid, so we will have to eyeball some of the numbers on the graph. It appears that after 10 hours, Kelly has traveled eight miles. This is because if you go up from the 10 and meet the line and then go to the left. you will be about at the line right below the 10 on the y-axis, and if you count the lines, you will see that we are counting by 2, so it has to be eight.

So, we see that Kelly takes 10 hours to go eight miles. We know that Joseph's distance is half of his time (4 hours would be 2 miles, 6 hours would be 3 hours, etc.)

So, if we say that Joseph hikes for ten hours, he will have hiked five miles as that is half of ten. We see, though, that Kelly made it eight hours in that time, so Kelly is going faster here.

Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D
