A teacher would like to estimate the mean number of steps students take during the school day. To do so, she selects a random sa

mple of 50 students and gives each one a pedometer at the beginning of the school day. They wear the pedometers all day and then return them to her at the end of the school day. From this, she computes the 98% confidence interval for the true mean number of steps students take during the school day to be 8,500 to 10,200. If the teacher had used a 90% confidence interval rather than a 98% confidence interval, what would happen to the width of the interval

Answer:

The answer is "It would decrease, but not necessarily by 8%".

Step-by-step explanation:

They know that width of the confidence level is proportional to a confidence level. As just a result, reducing the confidence level decreases the width of a normal distribution, but not with the amount of variance in the confidence level. As just a result, when a person teaches a 90% standard deviation rather than a 98 percent normal distribution, the width of the duration narrows.

lara [203]

Answer:

y = 17x + 9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

17 * 1.25 = 21.25    therefore 30.75 - 21.25 = 9.5  = $9.50 admission   therefore y = 17x + 9.5

What is the slope for y=3x-4? What is the y-intercept for y=3x-4?​
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

From the question the equation of the line is

y = 3x - 4

Comparing with the general equation above

The slope /m = 3

The y intercept / c = - 4

Hope this helps you

The function h(x) is defined as shown.
pav-90 [236]
1. For x<3, h(x)=x+2

now x+2 is an increasing line (a practical way to check, h(1)=3, h(2)=4)

the largest value it takes is at 3, not inclusive, so h(3)=5 not inclusive.

Range_1= (-∞, 5)

2. for x> or equal to 3, h(x)=-x+8, which is a decreasing line (check h(4)=4, h(5)=3 )

so this line takes its maximal value at x=3, f(3)=5 and then takes any other value to -∞.

Range_2=(-∞,5]

3. Range(h)=Range1∪Range2=(-∞, 5)∪(-∞,5]=(-∞,5]      (B)
