An automobile manufacturer has developed a new compact automobile. A random sample of 64 of the new automobiles showed that the

automobiles had a sample mean mileage of 28.75 miles per gallon and a sample standard deviation of 3.4 miles per gallon. a) Find the 95% confidence interval for the population mean mileage, and state your conclusion. b) Find the 98% confidence interval for the population mean mileage, and state your conclusion.

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>

The scale drawing of a rectangular room will be enlarged by a scale factor of 4 to create the actual room. The actual area of th
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

The expression is equal to \frac{150}{4^{2}}

The area of the scale drawing is 9.375\ ft^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

let

z------> the scale factor

x------> the area of the actual room

y-----> the area of the scale drawing

so

z^{2}=\frac{x}{y}

we have

z=4

x=150\ ft^{2}

substitute and solve for y

4^{2}=\frac{150}{y}

y=\frac{150}{4^{2}}=9.375\ ft^{2}

the diameter of the circle base of a storage container 18.8 m circumference of the base is approximately 59 m which of these cou
ozzi

Answer:

Estimate the value of pi =3.14

Step-by-step explanation:

The diameter of the circle base of a storage container 18.8m

The diameter of the circle 'd' = 2r

Given data  'd' = 2r = 18.8m

The circumference of the circle = 2πr

Given data of circumference of the circle = 59 m

given        2πr = 59

                2r(π) = 59

                18.8 π = 59 ( by using 2r =18.8)

                  π = 59/18.8

                   π  = 3.13829

                    π  = 3.14

<u>Conclusion</u>:-

Estimate the value of pi =3.14

Solve the system by substitution.<br> y=6x<br> y=3x+21<br> ( , )
Dimas [21]

Answer:

(7,42)

Step-by-step explanation:

Imput the 6x for the Y:

6x=3x+21

move the variable to the left

6x-3x=21

collect like terms:

3x=21

divide both sides by 3x and youll get this for X

x=7

Imput x=7 into the equation

Y=6x7

solve:

y=42

How to find the median on a dot plot?
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

In order to find the median of the data you take every value and order it from least to greatest. When you do this make sure you write a number the correct amount of times. for example if there are 4 dots above 6 on the dot plot then you need to make sure you write 6 4 times. After you have all the data from least to greatest find the number in the middle. that is the median.
