At heart we're being asked for a line through two points,
In general the line through (a,b) and (c,d) is
Check that you understand why both (a,b) and (c,d) are on this line.
Here our indepedent variable, instead of x, is T, temperature. Our dependent variable is v, velocity. Substituting,
That's our answer; let's check it.
When T=40, v = (5/9)40 + (2995/9) = 355 good
When T=49, v= (5/9)49 + (2995/9) = 360 good
Answer:
a. 0.1576<p<0.2310
b. The two restaurants likely have similar order rates which are inaccurate.
Step-by-step explanation:
a. We first calculate the proportion, :
-We use the z-value alongside the proportion to calculate the margin of error:
The confidence interval at 90% is then calculated as:
Hence, the confidence interval at 90% is [0.1576,0.2310]
b. From a above, the calculated confidence interval is 0.1576<p<0.2310
-We compare the calculated CI to the stated CI of 0.147<p<0.206
-The two confidence intervals overlap each other and have the same value for 0.1576<p<0.206
-Hence, we conclude that the two restaurants likely have similar order rates which are inaccurate.
