A sample of 29 boxes of cereal has a sample standard deviation of 0.81 ounces. Construct a 95% confidence interval to estimate the true standard deviation of the filling process for the boxes of cereal.
a. ( 0.427,1.144)
b. (0.515,1.105)
c. (0.726,0.726)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval is   [tex]0.6428 < \sigma < 1.0954[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  n = 29

    The sample standard deviation is [tex]s = 0.81[/tex]

  Generally the 95% confidence interval to estimate the true standard deviation  is mathematically represented as  

                      [tex]\sqrt{\frac{(n- 1)s^2 }{ X^2_( \frac{\alpha }{2 } , n-1)} } < \sigma < \sqrt{\frac{(n- 1)s^2 }{ X^2_(1- \frac{\alpha }{2 } , n-1)} }[/tex]

Generally from the  chi -distribution table  the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] at a degree of freedom of  [tex]df = 29 - 1 = 28[/tex]  is  

            [tex]X^2 _{\frac{\alpha }{2} , 28 } =44.46079184[/tex]

Generally from the  chi -distribution table  the critical value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] at a degree of freedom of  [tex]df = 29 - 1 = 28[/tex]  is  

             [tex]X^2 _{(1 - \frac{\alpha }{2}) , 28 } = 15.30786055[/tex]

So

                 [tex]\sqrt{\frac{(29- 1)0.81^2 }{ 44.46079184 } } < \sigma < \sqrt{\frac{(29- 1)0.81^2 }{15.315.307860551 }[/tex]

=>              [tex]0.6428 < \sigma < 1.0954[/tex]

(7y2 + x2 = 64
10.
x+y = 4

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

7[tex]y^{2}[/tex]+[tex]x^{2}[/tex]=64x+y=4

First, we isolate the variable on the second equation so that we can have an x solution to plug in:

x=-y+4

Now, we plug this in to the first equation:

[tex]7(-y+4)^{2} +(-y+4)^{2} =64[/tex]

We can now put the 7 into the parentheses and then square root the equation:

[tex]\sqrt{(-7y+28)^{2}} +\sqrt{(-y+4)^{2}} =\sqrt{64}\\-7y+28-y+4=8\\-8y=40\\y=-40[/tex]

We then plug this in to the original equation to find x

[tex]x+-40=4\\x=-36[/tex]

This means y=-40 and x=-36. I believe that's what you were asking. Let me know if it is something else

OA. 12
OB. 4
OC. 16
OD. 48

Answers

Answer:

it's either A (12) or B(4) but I think it's 12

Step-by-step explanation:

if we make it into an equation, we get

8(x-6)=4x

8x-48=4x

-48=-4x

-12=-x

x=12

the reason why it might be 4 as well is if we switch the order

8(6-x)=4x

48-8x=4x

48=12x

x=4

So both of those could be correct, but I'm thinking that because they said between a number and 6, then x goes first, so therefore, I think it is 12

What are the measures of jK andKIJ?

Measure ofKIJ=
116°

ANWSER
JK=104°
KIJ=52

Answers

Answer:

JK=104°

KIJ=52

Step-by-step explanation:

The measures of the arc JK and angle KIJ of the given inscribed triangle are; Arc JK = 104° and  ∠KIJ = 52°

What is the measure of the angles?

We have been given the arc KI = 116°, so we can find the angle KJI by intercept property.

Angle KJI = arc KI/ 2

Thus;

Angle KJI = 116°/2

Angle KJI = 58°

Now by angle sum property of a triangle, we get:

∠ K + ∠ I + ∠ J = 180°

70° + ∠I + 58° = 180°

∠I = 52°

By using intercept formula, we get arc KJ;

∠JIK = arc JK/ 2

2(∠ JIK) = arc JK

2(52°) = arc JK

arc JK = 104°

third side is 38

Step-by-step explanation:

x + (x - 8) + (x + 14) = 78

3x + 6 = 78

3x = 78 - 6

3 x = 72

x = 72/3

x = 24

0.20 × 65 is what you would do for the second

Step-by-step explanation:

btw listen to yungblud

Note that the cost for the rent is a function of the amount of the miles you drove. Let's call that [tex]C(m)[/tex].

Also note that the amount you pay will linearly increase, in other words, the increase in cost will always be the same for each mile. This tells us that our function is indeed a line, a first order polynomial of the form [tex]C(m) = am+b[/tex]

What would happen if you were to rent a truck and not drive it at all? You would pay only the one-time fee.

Therefore, [tex]C(0)=55[/tex]

So, [tex]C(m) = am + 50[/tex]

The cost will increase by $0.20 for each mile, wich tells us that [tex]a=0.20[/tex]

Finally, our expression is [tex]\boxed{C(m) = 0.2m+55}[/tex]

If we want to know how much would you pay if you drove 65 miles, we want to know what [tex]C(65)[/tex] is.

By plugging [tex]m=65[/tex] in the expression, we get

[tex]C(65) =68[/tex]

So you would pay $68

Thayne's credit card bill is $766.85. This includes his charges and interest. If the new charges are $559.45 more than the interest, find the amount in charges and the amount in interest.

Answers

Answer: The answer is 207.4 for the interest

Step-by-step explanation:

766.85 - 559.45= 207.4

The answer 207.4 is the amount of interest on Thayne's credit card bill.

How to solve

We can find this answer by subtracting the amount of charges from the total bill amount.

Total bill amount = $766.85

Amount of charges = $1118.9

Amount of interest = $766.85 - $1118.9 = $207.4
