The heights of seasonal pine saplings are normally distributed with an unknown population mean and standard deviation. A random sample of 20 saplings is taken and results in a sample mean of 310 millimeters and sample standard deviation of 20 millimeters. (a) The EBM, margin of error, for a 98% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution is 11.35. (b) Find a 98% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution. Round the final answers to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) The margin of error for the interval is of 11.35.

b) The 98% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution is between 298.65 and 321.35 millimeters.

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 = 20 - 1 = 19

98% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 19 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.99[/tex]. So we have T = 2.539

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.539\frac{20}{\sqrt{20}} = 11.35[/tex]

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

Thus, the margin of error for the interval is of 11.35.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 310 - 11.35 = 298.65 millimeters.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 310 + 11.35 = 321.35 millimeters.

The 98% confidence interval estimate for the population mean using the Student's t-distribution is between 298.65 and 321.35 millimeters.

A. 39,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the lower prism = 30^3= 27,000

Volume of the pyramid = 1/3 area of the base * height

= 1/3 * 900 * 40

= 1200

Volume of the whole solid = 27000 + 12000

4x-3y<16, which ordered pair?

Answers

Answer:

A. (3, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The ordered pair that is a solution is the one which makes the inequality TRUE when the value of the ordered pairs are plugged into 4x - 3y < 16

Therefore, the ordered pair, (3, -1) is the solution because it is the only given ordered pair in the options that makes the inequality true. Thus:

Substitute x = 3 and y = -1 into 4x - 3y < 16

4(3) - 3(-1) < 16

12 + 3 < 16

15 < 16 (TRUE)

Jada walks dogs to earn money. The points in this graph represent the total amount of money Jada earns based on the number of hours she walks dogs. Jada wants to purchase a new jacket that costs $32.

How many hours does Jada need to walk dogs to earn enough money to buy the jacket?

Answers

Answer:

Eight Hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since she makes 4$ in 1 hour, you divide 32 by 4 to see how many hours it would take her.

32 divided by 4 = 8

Jada needs 8 hours to walk dogs to earn enough money to buy the new jacket which costs $32.

What is the unitary method?

The unitary method is a method for solving a problem by the first value of a single unit and then finding the value by multiplying the single value.

Jada wants to purchase a new jacket that costs $32.

Since she makes 4$ in 1 hour

So, Time is taken to earn money to 4$ = 1 hour

      Time is taken to earn money to1$  = 1/4hour

Time is taken to earn money to 32$ = 32/4hour

                                                   = 8 hour

Thus, Jada needs 8 hours to walk dogs to earn enough money to buy the jacket.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Arc YZ is twice the measure of angle X, so is 136°. The sum of the arcs of a circle is 360°, so the unknown arc is ...

  360° -136° -125° = 99° . . . . measure of arc XZ

Answer:

Solution given:

<x=68°

arc XY=125°

arc XZ=?

we have

<X+<W=180°[sum of opposite angle of a cyclic quadrilateral is supplementary]

<W=180°-68°=112°

Now

arc YZ=2×112°=224°[central angle is equal to the twice of its inscribed angle]

arc YZ=224°

arc XY +arc YZ=224°

125°+arc YZ=224°

arc YZ=224°-125°

arc YZ=99°

the measure of the arc or angle indicated is 99°.

Answers

Answer:

The first choice (12)

Step-by-step explanation:

i'm not 100% what the theory is but here is how I did it:

the angle D and 115% are supplementary which means they add up to 180.

115+x=180

x=65

so now that you know all the angle measures, you also know that all angles of a triangle add up to 180.

65+3x+19+5x=180

combine like terms:

8x+84=180

subtract 84 from both sides:

8x=96

divide by 8 on both sides

x=12
