An ammunition producer claims his best product has an average lifespan of exactly 18 years. A skeptical product evaluator asks for evidence (data) that might be used to evaluate this claim. The product evaluator was provided data collected from a random sample of 50 people who used the product. Using the data, an average product lifespan of 15 years and a standard deviation of 8 years was calculated. Select the 90%, confidence interval for the true mean lifespan of this product.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the true mean lifespan of this product is between 13.1 and 16.9 years.

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 = 50 - 1 = 49

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 49 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex]. So we have T = 1.6766

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.6766\frac{8}{\sqrt{50}} = 1.9[/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 15 - 1.9 = 13.1 years

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 15 + 1.9 = 16.9 years

The 90% confidence interval for the true mean lifespan of this product is between 13.1 and 16.9 years.

Answers

Answer: Carat

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that 1 atomic unit is equivalent to

[tex]8.3\times 10^{-24}\ \text{carat}[/tex] and [tex]1.66\times 10^{-21}\ mg[/tex]

Express carat and milligram in the atomic mass unit, that is

[tex]1\ \text{amu}\equiv 8.3\times 10^{-24}\ \text{carat}\\1\ \text{carat}\equiv \dfrac{1}{8.3\times 10^{-24}}=1.204\times 10^{23}\ amu[/tex]

For milligram

[tex]1\ \text{amu}\equiv 1.66\times 10^{-21}\ mg\\1\ mg\equiv \dfrac{1}{1.66\times 10^{-21}}=6.02\times 10^{20}\ \text{amu}[/tex]

clearly, carat is greater than milligram

Answer:

  a) v = 3i -6j

  b) v ≈ 6.708∠-63.43°

  c) w = -32.627i +15.214j

  d) v+w = -29.627i +9.214j = 31.027∠162.72°

Step-by-step explanation:

Most graphing calculators and many scientific calculators can do arithmetic with vectors, often in the form of complex numbers or arrays. Of course, the usual conversions can be used:

  (r; α) ⇒ (r·cos(α), r·sin(α))

  (x, y) ⇒ (√(x²+y²); atan2(x, y))

where atan2(x, y) is arctan(y/x) quadrant-adjusted for the signs of x and y

a) v = 3i -6j

b) v ≈ 6.708∠-63.43°

c) w = -32.627i +15.214j

d) v+w = -29.627i +9.214j = 31.027∠162.72°

The outside dimensions of a rectangular cooler WITHOUT its lid is 26 inches by 14 inches, with a height of 16 inches. The cooler is 2 inches thick. What is the volume inside the cooler

Answers

Answer:

3080 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

I like to draw things out. So I drew this cooler out, with the dimensions of 26x14x16. It the cooler is 2 inches thick, I need to remove 2 inches from each side of the cooler. So I took 4 inches off of the 26 and the 14 so the length and width become 22 and 10 respectively. Then I took 2 inches off the bottom of the cooler so the 16 became 14. This gives me the new dimensions of 14x22x10.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a = 8; b = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Filling in the given values gives you two equations.

  7 = a(2) +b

  -1 = a(1) +b

Subtracting the second equation from the first gives ...

  (7) -(-1) = (2a +b) -(a +b)

  8 = a . . . . . simplify

Using this value in the first equation gives ...

  7 = (8)(2) +b

  b = 7 -16 = -9

The constants are a = 8, b = -9.

Let: [tex]x = 1[/tex]

[tex]y = 0.75x + 9.25[/tex] becomes

[tex]y = 0.75*1 + 9.25 = 0.75 + 9.25 =10[/tex]

If the process is in control, the larger samples should have less variance and should fall - Select your answer (closerfarther) to 12.5

Answers

Answer:

1a) UCL = 14.2

    LCL = 10.9

b) UCL = 15.63

    LCL = 9.37

c) UCL = 16.48

   LCL = 8.52

2) The difference between the limits falls close together as n increases

and the difference between the limits  falls farther away from 12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

mean ( μ ) = 12.5

std ( б ) = 1.1

UCL = μ + ( n - 1 ) б / √n

LCL = μ - ( n - 1 ) б / √n

1) a) Given  n = 4

UCL = 12.5 + ( 3 ) * 1.1 / 2

       = 12.5 + 3.3/2 = 14.15 ≈ 14.2

LCL = 12.5 - 3.3/2 = 10.85 ≈ 10.9

b) Given n = 10

UCL = 12.5 + ( 9 ) * 1.1 /√10

       = 12.5 + 3.13 = 15.63

LCL = 12.5 - 3.13 = 9.37

c) Given n = 15

UCL = 12.5 + 14 * 1.1 / √15

       = 12.5 + 3.98 = 16.48

LCL = 12.5 - 3.98 = 8.52

2) As the sample size increases the difference between the limits of the control chart decreases

Hence the difference falls close together as n increases

and the difference between the limits  falls farther away from 12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the width of the rectangle. Then w+11 is the length. The perimeter is given by ...

  P = 2(L +W)

  182 = 2((w+11) +w)

  182 = 4w +22 . . . . . simplify

  160 = 4w . . . . . . . . . subtract 22

  40 = w . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4

  40 +11 = length = 51 . . . . determine length

The dimensions of the rectangle are 40 × 51 units.

The area of the rectangle is ...

  A = LW

  A = (51)(40) = 2040 . . . . square units

The area is 2040 square units.

_____

Additional comment

The perimeter of a rectangle is double the sum of length and width, so that sum is 182/2 = 91 units. Now, this is a "sum and difference" problem, where the sum of length and width is 91, and the difference is 11. The solutions to such a problem are half the sum and half the difference of these numbers. Above, we found the smaller dimension (width) first: (91-11)/2 = 40. We could have found the length as (91+11)/2 = 51. The knowledge of the general solution to "sum and difference" problems often lets you work them with mental arithmetic.
