23. The answer is D. If you multiply 0.8 by 5 you get 4 meters which means it would take 5 minutes. Multiplying it by 5 will give you a whole number therefore easier to find on the graph.

24. The answer is G. The square root of 5 is 2.23 and the square root of 2 is 1.4

A random sample of 35 business students required an average of 50.7 minutes to complete a statistics exam. Assume that the popul

love history [14]

Answer:

(47.3, 54.1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

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

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1 - \alpha$ .

That is z with a pvalue of $1 - 0.025 = 0.975$ , so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

$M = 1.96\frac{10.4}{\sqrt{35}} = 3.4$

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 50.7 - 3.4 = 47.3

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 50.7 + 3.4 = 54.1

The answer is (47.3, 54.1).
