The expression $y^{n}$ represent the repeated multiplication of $y$ , $n-$ times. The repeated multiplication of the same factor is called power.

The variable y is called the base and n is called the exponent or index.

<h2>Hence the correct answer is C.</h2>

Answer:

The probability that the customer must open 3 or more bottles before finding a prize is 0.64

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for a customer to have to open at least 3 bottles before winning a prize, then the first two bottles shouldnt have a price. The probability that a bottle doesnt have a price is 1-0.2 = 0.8. Since the bottles are independent from each other, then the probability that 2 bottles dont have a prize is 0.8² = 0.64. Therefore, the probability that the customer must open 3 or more bottles before finding a prize is 0.64

A laboratory scale is known to have a standard deviation (sigma) or 0.001 g in repeated weighings. Scale readings in repeated we

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

99% confidence interval for the given specimen is [3.4125 , 3.4155].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a laboratory scale is known to have a standard deviation (sigma) or 0.001 g in repeated weighing. Scale readings in repeated weighing are Normally distributed with mean equal to the true weight of the specimen.

Three weighing of a specimen on this scale give 3.412, 3.416, and 3.414 g.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for 99% confidence interval for the true mean specimen is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\bar X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean weighing of specimen = $\frac{3.412+3.416+3.414}{3}$ = 3.414 g

$\sigma$ = population standard deviation = 0.001 g

n = sample of specimen = 3

$\mu$ = population mean

<em>Here for constructing 99% confidence interval we have used z statistics because we know about population standard deviation (sigma).</em>

So, 99% confidence interval for the population mean, $\mu$ is ;

P(-2.5758 < N(0,1) < 2.5758) = 0.99 {As the critical value of z at 0.5% level

of significance are -2.5758 & 2.5758}

P(-2.5758 < $\frac{\bar X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < 2.5758) = 0.99

P( $-2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < ${\bar X - \mu}$ < $2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.99

P( $\bar X-2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < $\mu$ < $\bar X+2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.99

<u>99% confidence interval for</u> $\mu$ = [ $\bar X-2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ , $\bar X+2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ]

= [ $3.414-2.5758 \times {\frac{0.001}{\sqrt{3} } }$ , $3.414+2.5758 \times {\frac{0.001}{\sqrt{3} } }$ ]

= [3.4125 , 3.4155]

Therefore, 99% confidence interval for this specimen is [3.4125 , 3.4155].
