Answer:

<em>The 95% confidence interval for the population mean mileage is </em>

(27.917, 29.593)

The 98% confidence interval for the population mean mileage

(27.737, 29.762)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>

<em>Given that the random sample size 'n' = 64</em>

<em>Given that the mean of sample x⁻ = 28.75miles</em>

<em>Given that the standard deviation of the sample (S) = 3.4 miles</em>

<em>Degrees of freedom = n-1 = 64-1 =63</em>

<em>t₀.₀₅ = 1.9983</em>

<u>Step(ii):-</u>

<em>95% confidence interval for the population mean mileage is determined by</em>

<em />(x^{-} - t_{0.05} \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} + t_{0.05} \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} })<em />

(28.75-1.99\frac{3.4}{\sqrt{64} },28.75 + 1.99 \frac{3.4}{\sqrt{64} } )

(28.75 - 0.845 , 28.75 + 0.845)

(27.917 , 29.593)

<u><em>Step(iii</em></u>):-

<em>98% confidence interval for the population mean mileage is determined by</em>

<em />(x^{-} - t_{0.02} \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} + t_{0.02} \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} })<em />

(28.75-2.3824\frac{3.4}{\sqrt{64} },28.75 + 2.3824 \frac{3.4}{\sqrt{64} } )

(28.75 - 1.01252 , 28.75 + 1.01252)

(27.737 , 29.762)

<u><em>Final answer:-</em></u>

<em>98% confidence interval for the population mean mileage is </em>

(27.737 , 29.762)

<u><em /></u>

STatiana [176]

A rectangular school banner has a length of 44 inches, a perimeter of 156 inches, and an area of 1,496 square inches. the cheerleaders make signs similar to the banner. the length of a sign is 11 inches. First solve the width of the rectangle:

1496 sq in/ 44 = 34 in

So the sign has also a width of 34 in and a length of 11 so the area is 34*11 =374 sq in

<span>The perimeter is (34*2) +(11*2) =90 in</span>
