She paid $18.33 for her fabric.

3*5=15

2/3*5=3.333

15+3.333+18.333. or $18.33

You estimated the average rental cost of a 2 bedroom apartment in Denton. A random sample of 16 apartments was taken. The sample
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The new sample size required in order to have the same confidence 95% and reduce the margin of erro to $60 is:

n=28

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

Assuming the X follows a normal distribution  

X \sim N(\mu, \sigma=160)  

And the distribution for \bar X is:

\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{160}{\sqrt{n}})  

We know that the margin of error for a confidence interval is given by:  

Me=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}   (1)  

The next step would be find the value of \z_{\alpha/2}, \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2=0.025  

Using the normal standard table, excel or a calculator we see that:  

z_{\alpha/2}=\pm 1.96  

If we solve for n from formula (1) we got:  

\sqrt{n}=\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{Me}  

n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{Me})^2  

And we have everything to replace into the formula:  

n=(\frac{1.96(160)}{78.4})^2 =16  

And this value agrees with the sample size given.

For the case of the problem we ar einterested on Me= $60, and we need to find the new sample size required to mantain the confidence level at 95%. We know that n is given by this formula:

n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{Me})^2  

And now we can replace the new value of Me and see what we got, like this:

n=(\frac{1.96*160}{60})^2 =27.32

And if we round up the answer we see that the value of n to ensure the margin of error required Me=\pm 60 $ is n=28.

Let the following sample of 8 observations be drawn from a normal population with unknown mean and standard deviation:
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

a

   \= x  = 18.5  ,  \sigma =  5.15

b

 15.505 < \mu <  21.495

c

 14.93 < \mu <  22.069

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are are told that

    The  sample data is  21, 14, 13, 24, 17, 22, 25, 12

     The sample size is  n  = 8

Generally the ample mean is evaluated as

        \= x  =  \frac{\sum x  }{n}

        \= x  =  \frac{  21 + 14 + 13 + 24 + 17 + 22+ 25 + 12  }{8}

         \= x  = 18.5

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically evaluated as

         \sigma =  \sqrt{\frac{\sum (x- \=x )^2}{n}}

\sigma =  \sqrt{\frac{\sum ((21 - 18.5)^2 + (14-18.5)^2+ (13-18.5)^2+ (24-18.5)^2+ (17-18.5)^2+ (22-18.5)^2+ (25-18.5)^2+ (12 -18.5)^2 )}{8}}

\sigma =  5.15

considering part b

Given that the confidence level is  90% then the significance level is evaluated as

         \alpha  =  100-90

         \alpha  = 10\%

         \alpha  = 0.10

Next we obtain the critical value of  \frac{ \alpha }{2}  from the normal distribution table the value is  

     Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} }  =  1.645

The margin of error is mathematically represented as

      E =  Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } *  \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }

=>    E =1.645  *  \frac{5.15 }{\sqrt{8} }

=>     E =  2.995

The 90% confidence interval is evaluated as

       \= x  -  E < \mu <  \= x +  E

substituting values

       18.5 -  2.995 < \mu <  18.5 +  2.995

       15.505 < \mu <  21.495

considering part c

Given that the confidence level is  95% then the significance level is evaluated as

         \alpha  =  100-95

         \alpha  = 5\%

         \alpha  = 0.05

Next we obtain the critical value of  \frac{ \alpha }{2}  from the normal distribution table the value is  

     Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} }  =  1.96

The margin of error is mathematically represented as

      E =  Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } *  \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }

=>    E =1.96  *  \frac{5.15 }{\sqrt{8} }

=>     E = 3.569

The 95% confidence interval is evaluated as

       \= x  -  E < \mu <  \= x +  E

substituting values

       18.5 - 3.569 < \mu <  18.5 +  3.569

       14.93 < \mu <  22.069
