Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the average bonus that all employees working for financial companies in New York City received last year is between $43,819 and $50,181

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

T interval

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 62 - 1 = 61

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 61 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95. So we have T = 1.67

The margin of error is:

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.67\frac{15000}{\sqrt{62}} = 3181

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 47000 - 3181 = $43,819

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 47000 + 3181 = $50,181

The 90% confidence interval for the average bonus that all employees working for financial companies in New York City received last year is between $43,819 and $50,181

Transform the Cartesian (rectangular) equation to a polar equation: x = -9. The selected answer is incorrect.
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

Solution : Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equations r² = x² + y², x = r cos(θ), and y = r sin(θ) that can be used to solve this problem. In this case we only need the second two equations (  x = r cos(θ), and y = r sin(θ) ) as we don't need to apply the concept of circles etc here.

Given : x = - 9,

( Substitute r cos(θ) for x )

r cos(θ) = - 9,

r = - 9 / cos(θ)

( Remember that sec is the reciprocal of cos(θ). Substitute sec for 1 / cos(θ) )

r = - 9 sec(θ)

Therefore the third option is the correct solution.
