A survey conducted by the American Automobile Association showed that a family of four spends an average of $215.60 per day while on vacation. Suppose a sample of 64 families of four vacationing at Niagara Falls resulted in a sample mean of $252.45 per day and a sample standard deviation of $70.00. a. Develop a 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean amount spent per day by a family of four visiting Niagara Falls (to 2 decimals).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean amount spent per day by a family of four visiting Niagara Falls is ($234.96, $269.94).

Step-by-step explanation:

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

T interval

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 = 64 - 1 = 63

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 63 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 1.9983

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.9983\frac{70}{\sqrt{64}} = 17.49[/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 252.45 - 17.49 = $234.96.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 252.45 + 17.49 = $269.94.

The 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean amount spent per day by a family of four visiting Niagara Falls is ($234.96, $269.94).

The increasing annual cost (including tuition, room, board, books and fees) to attend college ) to attend college has been widely discussed in many publications including Money magazine. The following random samples show the annual cost of attending private and public colleges. Data are in thousands of dollars.

Private Colleges
53.8 42.2 44.0 34.3 44.0
31.6 45.8 38.8 50.5 42.0

Public Colleges
20.3 22.0 28.2 15.6 24.1 28.5
22.8 25.8 18.5 25.6 14.4 21.8

Required:
a. Compute the sample mean (in thousand dollars) and sample standard deviation (in thousand dollars) for private colleges.
b. What is the point estimate (in thousand dollars) of the difference between the two population means?

Answers

Answer:

a) The sample mean is of 42.7 thousand dollars.

The standard deviation is of 6.38 thousand dollars.

b) The point estimate of the difference between the two population means is of 20.4 thousand dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Compute the sample mean (in thousand dollars) and sample standard deviation (in thousand dollars) for private colleges.

Sample mean is the sum of all values divided by the number of values. So

[tex]M = \frac{53.8 + 42.2 + 44.0 + 34.3 + 44.0 + 31.6 + 45.8 + 38.8 + 50.5 + 42.0}{10} = 42.7[/tex]

The sample mean is of 42.7 thousand dollars.

Sample standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the difference squared between each number and the mean, divided by the number of values. So

[tex]S = \sqrt{\frac{(53.8-42.7)^2 + (42.2-42.7)^2 + (44.0-42.7)^2 + (34.3-42.7)^2 + (44.0-42.7)^2 + (31.6-42.7)^2 + (45.8-42.7)^2 + (38.8-42.7)^2 + (50.5-42.7)^2 + (42.0-42.7)^2}{10}} = 6.38[/tex]

The standard deviation is of 6.38 thousand dollars.

b. What is the point estimate (in thousand dollars) of the difference between the two population means?

First, we have to find the sample mean for public colleges, and then subtract the sample mean of private colleges by the sample mean of public colleges. So, for public colleges:

[tex]M = \frac{20.3 + 22.0 + 28.2 + 15.6 + 24.1 + 28.5 + 22.8 + 25.8 + 18.5 + 25.6 + 14.4 + 21.8}{12} = 22.3[/tex]

Point estimate of the difference:

42.7 - 22.3 = 20.4

The point estimate of the difference between the two population means is of 20.4 thousand dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of arc CFD is the measure of the whole circle, less the measure of arc CD. The measure of arc CD is the difference between the measures of arc CE and DE. Arc CE has the same measure as arc BF, so we have ...

  arc CFD = 360° -(arc BF -arc ED)

  arc CFD = 360° -132° +79°

  arc CFD = 307°

_____

Arcs BF and CE are of equal measure because their central angles are vertical angles, hence congruent.
