Answer:
Confidence interval for the population mean is between 15 homes and 19 homes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Sample (n) = 17 homes, mean (μ) = 19 homes, standard deviation (σ)= 4 people and confidence (C) = 98% = 0.98
α = 1 - C = 1 - 0.98 = 0.02
α/2 = 0.02/2 = 0.01.
The z score of 0.01 (α/2) corresponds to the z score of 0.49 (0.5 - 0.01) which from the normal distribution table is 2.33
The margin of error (E) is:
The confidence interval = μ ± E = 17 ± 2 = (15, 19)
Confidence interval for the population mean is between 15 homes and 19 homes
Answer:
6 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
First find a product of 4 which is the closest to 25, 4 x 6 = 24 then subtract the number from the product you just found, 25 - 24 = 1, so the answer is 6 1/4
You should have drawn1 - x-axis and y-axis in light pencil.2 - graphed a down-facing parabola with the top of the frown on the y-axis at y = 2. It should be crossing the x-axis at ±√2. This should be in dark pencil or another color.3 - In dark pencil or a completely new color, draw a rectangle with one of the horizontal sides sitting on top of the x-axis and the other horizontal side touching the parabola at each of the top corners of the rectangle. The rectangle will have half of its base in the positive x-axis and the other half on the negative x-axis. It should be split right down the middle by the y-axis. So each half of the base we will say is "x" units long. So the whole base is 2x units long (the x units to the right of the y-axis, and the x units to the left of the y-axis) I so wish I could draw you this picture... In the vertical direction, both vertical edges are the same length and we will call that y. The area that we want to maximize has a width 2x long, and a height of y tall. So A = 2xy This is the equation we want to maximize (take derivative and set it = 0), we call it the "primary equation", but we need it in one variable. This is where the "secondary equation" comes in. We need to find a way to change the area formula to all x's or all y's. Since it is constrained to having its height limited by the parabola, we could use the fact that y=2 - x2 to make the area formula in only x's. Substitute in place of the "y", "2 - x2" into the area formula. A = 2xy = 2x(2 - x2) then simplify A = 4x - 2x3 NOW you are ready to take the deriv and set it = 0 dA/dx = 4 - 6x2 0 = 4 - 6x2 6x2 = 4 x2 = 4/6 or 2/3 So x = ±√(2/3) Width remember was 2x. So the width is 2[√(2/3)]Height is y which is 2 - x2 = 2 - 2/3 =4/3
