7 0

12.5%, every 500 years you take away half of the substance (50%) -> 25% -> 12.5%
you divide your number 3 times because 1500/500=3

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval based on this sample is =

[6.41, 7.79]

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Confidence Interval =

Mean ± z × standard deviation/√n

Sample mean = 7.1 hours

Standard deviation = 5 hours

n = 200 students

z = 95% confidence interval z score

= 1.96

C.I = 7.1 ± 1.96 × 5/√200

C.I = 7.1 ± 0.693

Hence, Confidence Interval

= 7.1 - 0.693

= 6.407

Approximately = 6.41

= 7.1 + 0.693

= 7.793

Approximately = 7.79

Therefore, the 95% confidence interval based on this sample is

[6.41, 7.79]
