Answer:

x>-2

Step-by-step explanation:

first you want to get rid of all of the numbers on the left so you can only be left with 2x>-4 then you decide both sides by 2x because you only want to be left with one x and once you divide you will be left with x>-2

A train covers 165 km in 1.5 hours. How far will the train travel in 2.2 hours if it maintains the same speed?

GaryK [48]

Answer:

242 km

Step-by-step explanation:

distance = rate x time

so 165 km in 1.5 he is the same as 110 km per hour.

d = 110(2.2).

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

a) The 90% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3387.63, $3584.37).

b) The 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3368.5, $3603.5).

c) The 99% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3330.66, $3641.34).

d) The confidence level is how sure we are that the interval contains the mean. So, the higher the confidence level, more sure we are that the interval contains the mean. So, as the confidence level is increased, the width of the interval increases, which is reasonable.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Develop a 90% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent.

Our sample size is 120.

The first step to solve this problem is finding our degrees of freedom, that is, the sample size subtracted by 1. So

$df = 120-1 = 119$

Then, we need to subtract one by the confidence level $\alpha$ and divide by 2. So:

$\frac{1-0.90}{2} = \frac{0.10}{2} = 0.05$

Now, we need our answers from both steps above to find a value T in the t-distribution table. So, with 119 and 0.05 in the t-distribution table, we have $T = 1.6578$ .

Now, we find the standard deviation of the sample. This is the division of the standard deviation by the square root of the sample size. So

$s = \frac{650}{\sqrt{120}} = 59.34$

Now, we multiply T and s

$M = T*s = 59.34*1.6578 = 98.37$

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So it is 3486 - 98.37 = $3387.63.

The upper end of the interval is the mean added to M. So it is 3486 + 98.37 = $3584.37.

The 90% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3387.63, $3584.37).

b) Develop a 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent.

Now we have that $\alpha = 0.95$

$\frac{1-0.95}{2} = \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.025$

With 119 and 0.025 in the t-distribution table, we have $T = 1.9801$ .

$M = T*s = 59.34*1.9801 = 117.50$

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So it is 3486 - 117.50 = $3368.5.

The upper end of the interval is the mean added to M. So it is 3486 + 117.50 = $3603.5.

The 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3368.5, $3603.5).

c) Develop a 99% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent.

Now we have that $\alpha = 0.99$

$\frac{1-0.95}{2} = \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.005$

With 119 and 0.025 in the t-distribution table, we have $T = 2.6178$ .

$M = T*s = 59.34*2.6178 = 155.34$

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So it is 3486 - 155.34 = $3330.66.

The upper end of the interval is the mean added to M. So it is 3486 + 155.34 = $3641.34.

The 99% confidence interval estimate of the population mean monthly rent is ($3330.66, $3641.34).

d) What happens to the width of the confidence interval as the confidence level is increased? Does this seem reasonable? Explain.

The confidence level is how sure we are that the interval contains the mean. So, the higher the confidence level, more sure we are that the interval contains the mean. So, as the confidence level is increased, the width of the interval increases, which is reasonable.
