tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

96% confidence interval for desired retirement age of all college students is [54.30 , 55.70].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a survey was conducted to determine the average age at which college seniors hope to retire in a simple random sample of 101 seniors, 55 was the average desired retirement age, with a standard deviation of 3.4 years.

Firstly, the Pivotal quantity for 96% confidence interval for the population mean is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ $t_n_-_1$

where, $\bar X$ = sample average desired retirement age = 55 years

$\sigma$ = sample standard deviation = 3.4 years

n = sample of seniors = 101

$\mu$ = true mean retirement age of all college students

Here for constructing 96% confidence interval we have used One-sample t test statistics as we don't know about population standard deviation.

So, 96% confidence interval for the population mean, $\mu$ is ;

P(-2.114 < $t_1_0_0$ < 2.114) = 0.96 {As the critical value of t at 100 degree

of freedom are -2.114 & 2.114 with P = 2%}

P(-2.114 < $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < 2.114) = 0.96

P( $-2.114 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < ${\bar X-\mu}$ < $2.114 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.96

P( $\bar X-2.114 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < $\mu$ < $\bar X+2.114 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.96

96% confidence interval for $\mu$ = [ $\bar X-2.114 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ , $\bar X+2.114 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ]

= [ $55-2.114 \times {\frac{3.4}{\sqrt{101} } }$ , $55+2.114 \times {\frac{3.4}{\sqrt{101} } }$ ]

= [54.30 , 55.70]

Therefore, 96% confidence interval for desired retirement age of all college students is [54.30 , 55.70].

If a certain cannon is fired from a height of 8.8 meters above the ground, at a certain angle, the height of the cannonball ab

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

It would take approximately 6.50 second for the cannonball to strike the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided function.

$h(t)=-4.9t^2+30.5t+8.8$

We need to find the time takes for the cannonball to strike the ground.

Substitute h(t) = 0 in above function.

$-4.9t^2+30.5t+8.8=0$

Multiply both sides by 10.

$-49t^2+305t+88=0$

For a quadratic equation of the form $ax^2+bx+c=0$ the solutions are: $x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Substitute a = -49, b = 305 and c=88

$t=\frac{-305+\sqrt{305^2-4\left(-49\right)88}}{2\left(-49\right)}=-\frac{-305+\sqrt{110273}}{98}\\t = \frac{-305-\sqrt{305^2-4\left(-49\right)88}}{2\left(-49\right)}= \frac{305+\sqrt{110273}}{98}$

Ignore the negative value of t as time can't be a negative number.

Thus,

$t=\frac{305+\sqrt{110273}}{98}\approx6.50$

Hence, it would take approximately 6.50 second for the cannonball to strike the ground.
