==========================================
Explanation:
The steps you have so far are correct. You just need to multiply both sides by -3
Doing so will clear out the fractions and you'll be left with 19 = x, which is the same as x = 19
Let's check that answer:
So the answer is confirmed.
Answer:
a) 5.6 years
b) 0.4478
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
Mean, μ = 5.6 years
Standard Deviation, σ = 1.9 years
Sample size, n = 18
We are given that the distribution of amounts of time is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.
a) Mean of each sample.
The best estimator of the sample mean is the population mean itself. Thus, we have:
Thus, the sample mean is 5.6 years.
b) Standard error
Formula:
Putting values, we have.
Thus, the standard error is 0.4478.
