A market research firm supplies manufacturers with estimates of the retail sales of their products from samples of retail stores. Marketing managers are prone to look at the estimate and ignore sampling error. An SRS of 28
stores this year shows mean sales of 64 units of a small appliance, with a standard deviation of 13.8 units. During the same point in time last year, an SRS of 28 stores had mean sales of 48.958 units, with standard deviation 15.4 units. An increase from 48.958 to 64 is a rise of about 24%.


1. Construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the difference μ1−μ2

μ1−μ2, where μ1 is the mean of this year's sales and μ2 is the mean of last year's sales.


(b) The margin of error is



2. At a 0.01 significance level, is there sufficient evidence to show that sales this year are different from last year?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Confidence interval = (4.61972, 25.46428)

Margin of Error = 3.9078675

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

This year:

Mean (μ1) = 64

Standard deviation (s1) = 13.8

Sample size (n1) = 28

Last year:

Mean (μ2) = 48.958

Standard deviation (s2) = 15.4

Sample size (n2) = 28

99% confidence interval estimate of the difference μ1−μ2

α = 1 - 99% = 0.01

(μ1−μ2) ± t0.01,27 * (√s1²/n1 + s2²/n2)

t0.01, 27 = 2.770683 (t value calculator)

√s1²/n1 + s2²/n2 = √13.8^2/28 + 15.4^2/28 = 3.9078675

(64 - 48.958) ± 2.667(3.9078675)

15.042 ± 10.42228

(15.042 - 10.42228), (15.042 + 10.42228)

(4.61972, 25.46428)

The margin of error :

√(s1²/n1) + (s2²/n2)

√(13.8^2/28) + (15.4^2/28)

√(6.8014285 + 8.47)

√15.2714285

= 3.9078675

Answer:

First figure out how many cups are in a gallon. 16 .

Next multiply 16×3= 48

Finally you divide price per cup or 20.16/ 48.

The cost is .42 cents per cup.

I got 0.64 because you first divide 20.16 by 3 and get 6.72
Sooo the 6.72 is the price of each gallon and since there is 16 cups per gallon you divide 6.72 by 16 and your answer is 0.42

Write the answer in the simplest form

Answers

Answer:

He kept 7/12 of the box.

Step-by-step explanation:

We add and convert both 1/6 and 1/4 because we cant add fractions with unlike denominators.

1/6 = 2/12  | 1/4 = 3/12

then add.

2/12 + 3/12 = 5/12.

we subtract this from a whole, which is 12/12.

12/12 - 5/12 = 7/12

he keeps 7/12 of the box

What are Exponents?

Exponents are the method of writing numbers, especially large numbers, in terms of a base and an exponent, which is written as the power of base.

Given is a pattern, which is the powers of 2.

The first term is 2⁻¹ = 1/2

The second term is 2⁻² = 1/ 2² = 1/4

The third term is 2⁻³ = 1 / 2³ = 1/8

The fourth term is 2⁻⁴ =  1 / 2⁴ = 1/16

The fifth term is 2⁻⁵ = 1/ 2⁵ = 1/32

The sixth term is 2⁻⁶ = 1/ 2⁶ = 1/64

So the value of a is 1/64.

Hence the value of a is 1/64.

A total of 710 tickets were sold for the school play . They were either adult tickets or student tickets. There were 60 more student tickets sold than adult tickets. How many adult tickets were sold ?

Answers

Answer: 325

Explanation:

Let the number of adult tickets be x

( since there are an unknown amount of tickets for adults, we already know how many student tickets there are)

Let the number of student tickets be x+60

710=x+x+60

710=2x+60

 -60        -60

650=2x

Answer:

case a) y=1/3x+8

case b) y=-3x+28

Step-by-step explanation:

case a)

parallel lines has the same slope, then, the searched line has the form:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{3} x +b[/tex]

Now, in order to find b, we must use the given point (6,10). By substituying this point into the last equation, one has

[tex]10=\frac{1}{3} 6+b\\10=\frac{6}{3} +b\\10=2+b\\b=10-2\\b=8[/tex]

Then, the line equation is y=1/3x+8

case b)

the slope of a perpendicular line is the "negative reciprocal" of the slope of the original line, that is

[tex]m=-\frac{1}{\frac{1}{3} } \\m=-3[/tex]

Hence, the searched line has the form y=-3x + b. Now, in order to find the y-intercept b, we must use the given point (6,10). Therefore,

[tex]10=-3(6)+b\\10=-18+b\\b=10+18\\b=28[/tex]

Hence, the searced equation is y=-3x+28

How do you do these two questions?

Answers

Answer:

(x − π)⁷ / 5040

(x − 1)³ / 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Taylor series expansion of a function is:

f(x) = ∑ₙ₌₀°° f⁽ⁿ⁾(x₀) / n! (x − x₀)ⁿ

where f⁽ⁿ⁾(x₀) is the nth derivative evaluated at x₀.

For the first problem, f(x) = sin x and x₀ = π.  We want the seventh degree term, so n = 7.

The seventh degree term is therefore: f⁽⁷⁾(π) / 7! (x − π)⁷

Find the seventh derivative of sin x:

f(x) = sin x

f⁽¹⁾(x) = cos x

f⁽²⁾(x) = -sin x

f⁽³⁾(x) = -cos x

f⁽⁴⁾(x) = sin x

f⁽⁵⁾(x) = cos x

f⁽⁶⁾(x) = -sin x

f⁽⁷⁾(x) = -cos x

Evaluated at π, f⁽⁷⁾(x) = 1.  So the seventh degree term is (x − π)⁷ / 5040.

For the second problem, f(x) = √x and x₀ = 1.  We want the third degree term,  so n = 3.

The third degree term is therefore: f⁽³⁾(1) / 3! (x − 1)³

Find the third derivative of √x:

f(x) = √x

f⁽¹⁾(x) = ½ x^-½

f⁽²⁾(x) = -¼ x^-³/₂

f⁽³⁾(x) = ⅜ x^-⁵/₂

Evaluated at 1, f⁽³⁾(x) = ⅜.  So the third degree term is (x − 1)³ / 16.

Answers

Answer:

x = 18

y = 54°

Step-by-step explanation:

m<MON = 90° (given)

m<MOA = 72° (given)

m<AON + m<MOA = m<MON (Angle Addition Postulate)

m<AON + 72° = 90° (Substitution)

Subtract 72° from each side

m<AON = 90° - 72°

m<AON = 18°

m<AOD = 18° + 2x

m<BOC = 3x

m<AOD = m<BOC (vertical angles)

18 + 2x = 3x (Substitution)

Subtract 2x from each side

18 = 3x - 2x

18 = x

x = 18.

72° + y + 3x = 180° (angles on a straight line)

Plug in the value of x

72 + y + 3(18) = 180

72 + y + 54 = 180

126 + y = 180

Subtract 126 from both sides

y = 54

3:20 then 3:40 then 4:00 for both
They will meet for a third time at 6am because 20 is one third of 60. So when the first alarm rings three times the second one will also ring.
