Studies have suggusted that twins, in their early years, tend to have lower IQs and pick up language more slowly than non-twins. The slower intellectual growth may be caused by benign parental neglect. Suppose it is desired to estimate the mean attention time given
to twins per week by their parents. A sample of 26 sets of two-year-old twin boys was taken, and after one week the attention time
received was recorded. The mean was found to be 27.4 hours with a standard deviation of 11,2 hours. Use this information to contruc
a 98% confidence interval for the mean attention time given to all twin boys by their parents, assuming that the population is
approximately normally distributed, Round the endpoints to one decimal place.
Confidence interval:( , )

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Confidence interval: (21.9, 32.9).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 26 - 1 = 25

98% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 25 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.99[/tex]. So we have T = 2.485

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.485\frac{11.2}{\sqrt{26}} = 5.5[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 27.4 - 5.5 = 21.9 hours

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 27.4 + 5.5 = 32.9 hours

Confidence interval: (21.9, 32.9).

Distance between Train 1 and Train 2 = 95 miles.
Average speed of Train 1 = 45 mph.
Average speed of Train 2 = 60 mph.
If both trains leave at the same time and travel toward each other but on parallel tracks, in how much time will their engines be opposite each other? (Hint: When the engines are opposite each other, together the trains will have traveled 95 miles. Their relative speed of travel is the sum of their respective speeds, or 105 mph.)
Travel time = hours.

Answer:

  19/21 hours, about 54 minutes 17 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The time is found from ...

  time = distance/speed

  time = (95 mi)/(105 mi/h) = 95/105 h = 19/21 h

The trains will meet after 19/21 hours, about 54 minutes, 17 seconds.

Omar the tent maker wishes to support a 13.4-ft tent wall by attaching 25-ft cable to the top of it, and then anchoring the cable to the ground. If the cable is pulled tight, how far from the base of the tent will it be anchored?

Answers

Answer:

21.11 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

This question would be solved using Pythagoras theorem

The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²

where a = length

b = base

c = hypotenuse

13.4² + b² = 25²

179.56 + b² = 625

b² = 625 - 179.56

b = 445.44

find the square root of 445.44

b = 21.11 ft

Answer:

........................

Mr. Lim has to make calls at 5:00  pm if he wants to talk with his client at 7:00 AM in Chicago due to the different time zone.

What are Time Zones?

A time zone is any place that observes the same standard time. For current time zones around the world, see the interactive Time Zone Map.

Given, Mr. Lim, who is in Singapore, wants to make a phone call to his client in Chicago. The local time in Chicago is 14 h behind the local time in Singapore. If Mr. Lim wants to call his client at 7 a.m. (Chicago local time)

Since there is a time difference between the two countries. Mr. Lim has to make calls 14 hours before as per the local time zone

14 hours before 7 AM is 5: 00 PM.

Therefore, Due to the time difference, Mr. Lim must make calls at 5:00 p.m. if he wishes to speak with his client at 7:00 a.m. in Chicago.

find the volume of a figure. Use 3.14 for pi and round to the nearest hundredth, if necessary​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  1487.31 yd³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the composite figure is the sum of the volumes of a hemisphere of radius 7 yd, and a cylinder of the same radius and height 5 yd.

The volume of a sphere is 4/3πr³. The volume of a hemisphere is half that.

The volume of a cylinder is πr²h.

The total volume of this figure is ...

  V = (2/3)πr³ + πr²h

  V = πr²(2/3r +h)

  V = (3.14)(7 yd)²(2/3·7 yd +5 yd) = 3.14·49·29/3 yd³ ≈ 1487.31 yd³

The volume of the figure is about 1487.31 yd³.

4187.31 yd³ is thr volume of a fugure

Maria works for an international marketing consulting group. She is studying the monthly demands for Range Rover (suv) in two different cities of the country. She has 180,000 new Range Rovers to ship to the two cities, and she decides to ship 40,000 more to New York City than to Boston. Find the number of (suv) to be shipped to New York City . Please no link I can't open them

Answers

Answer:

110,000 (suv) to be shipped to New York City

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are 180,000 (suv) to be shipped in total. We also know that there are two cities which these (suv) must be shipped to. So, that is 180,000 (suv) to be shipped to two cities. Let's right a true equation with this information:

Let n represent the number of (suv) to be shipped to New York City and b represent the number of (suv) to be shipped to Boston.

n + b = 180,000

Now, we also know that the number of (suv) to be shipped to New York City is 40,000 greater than the number of (suv) to be shipped to Boston. So, we can write another true equation (for the sake of convenience, let's write it in terms of b rather than in terms of n):

b = n - 40,000

Now that we have a value for b in terms of n, we can plug this value into b in our first equation:

n + (n - 40,000) = 180,000

From here, we can solve:

n + n - 40,000 = 180,000

2n - 40,000 = 180,000

2n = 220,000

n = 110,000

Thus, we have our final answer.
