Given:

Total number of colored pencils = 16

Colored pencils fit in a box = 8

To find:

The number of boxed that will fit the 16 pencils.

Solution:

According to the question 8 colored pencils will fit in a box. So, we have

8 pencils = 1 box

Multiply both sides by 2.

2×8 pencils = 2×1 box

16 pencils = 2 box

Therefore, 2 boxes are required to fit the 16 colored pencils.

Provide an appropriate response. A local bank needs information concerning the checking account balances of its customers. A ran

choli [55]

Answer:

[$489.83, $883.67]

Step-by-step explanation:

The 98% confidence interval is given by the interval

$\bf [\bar x-t\frac{s}{\sqrt n}, \bar x+t\frac{s}{\sqrt n}]$

where

$\bf \bar x$ =686.75 is the sample mean

s = 256.20 is the sample standard deviation

n = 15 is the sample size

t is the 2% critical value for the Student's t-distribution with 14 degrees of freedom (sample size -1), this is a value such that the area under the Student's t curve outside the interval [-t, t] is 2%=0.02.

We are using the t-distribution for it is the approximation to the Normal distribution for small samples (n<30).

Either by using a table or the computer, we find

t = 2.9768

In Excel we use the function

In OpenOffice Calc

and our 98% confidence interval is

$\bf [686.75-2.9768*\frac{256.20}{\sqrt{15}}, 686.75+2.9768*\frac{256.20}{\sqrt{15}}]=\boxed{[\$489.83,\$883.67]}$

Am I correct?? I did not count the last square unit at the vertices of each corner.

mariarad [96]

The answer would actually be a 110 units because the bottom left corner had 20 units and the bigger square had 90.
