Answer: Choice B
=====================================
Explanation:
The given matrix is
The numbers to the right of the vertical bar represent the values on the right hand side of each equation in the final answer.
The numbers to the left of the bar represent the x and y coefficients of the equations. The first number of any given row is the x coefficient. The second number is the y coefficient.
For instance, the first row has to indicate the x coefficient is 1, and the y coefficient is 5. We end up with 1x+5y or simply x+5y. Putting everything together, the first equation would be x+5y = 11
Through similar steps, the second equation is 4x-6y = -3
Answer:
a) The 95% confidence interval for the mean number of hours per day her solar panel receives direct sunlight is between 2.5 and 11.7.
b) The confidence interval is built from a sample of 48 days. However, we can be 95% sure that for all days, the mean number of hours per day her solar panel receives direct sunlight is between 2.5 and 11.7.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample. So we use the t-distribution to solve this question.
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 = 48 - 1 = 47
95% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 47 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of . So we have T = 2.0117
The margin of error is:
M = T*s = 2.0117*2.3 = 4.6
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 7.1 - 4.6 = 2.5 hours of sunlight per day
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 7.1 + 4.6 = 11.7 hours of sunlight per day
a) Compute the 95% confidence interval for the mean.
The 95% confidence interval for the mean number of hours per day her solar panel receives direct sunlight is between 2.5 and 11.7.
b) Explain your confidence interval from part (a) in context.
The confidence interval is built from a sample of 48 days. However, we can be 95% sure that for all days, the mean number of hours per day her solar panel receives direct sunlight is between 2.5 and 11.7.
