A tire manufacturer is interested in testing the fuel economy for two different tread patterns. Tires of each tread type are driven for 1000 miles on each of 18 different cars. In a separate experiment, 18 cars were outfitted with tires with tread type A, and another 18 were outfitted with tires with tread type B. Each car was driven 1000 miles. The cars with tread type A averaged 23.95 mpg, with a standard deviation of 1.79 mpg. The cars with tread type B averaged 22.19 mpg, with a standard deviation of 1.95 mpg. Let μX represent the population mean mileage for tread type A and let μY represent the population mean mileage for tread type B.


Required:

Find a 99% confidence interval for the difference μXâμY. Round the answers to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Using the t-distribution, it is found that the 99% confidence interval for the difference is (0.058, 3.462).

We are given the standard deviation for the samples, hence, the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The standard errors are given by:

[tex]s_A = \frac{1.79}{\sqrt{18}} = 0.4219[/tex]

[tex]s_B = \frac{1.95}{\sqrt{18}} = 0.4596[/tex]

For the distribution of differences, the mean and the standard error are given by:

[tex]\overline{x} = \mu_A - \mu_B = 23.95 - 22.19 = 1.76[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{0.4219^2 + 0.4596^2} = 0.6239[/tex]

The interval is given by:

[tex]\overline{x} \pm ts[/tex]

The critical value for a two-tailed 99% confidence interval with 18 + 18 - 2 = 34 df is t = 2.7284.

Then:

[tex]\overline{x} - ts = 1.76 - 2.7284(0.6239) = 0.058[/tex]

[tex]\overline{x} + ts = 1.76 + 2.7284(0.6239) = 3.462[/tex]

The 99% confidence interval for the difference is (0.058, 3.462).

How many people will this larger batch of Arroz Con Leche serve?

Answers

Answer:

If Mia wants to use 6 cups of rice, she would need to multiply the amount of each ingredient by 3, because the original 2 cups times 3 is the 6 cups she wants to use. So the new amount for the recipe would be this:

6 cups of rice

12 cups of milk  

1 cup of sugar  

3 handful of raisins

3 cinnamon sticks

When asking how many this will serve, we also multiply by 3 the original amount of people which is 4 to get 12 servings of Arroz con leche

Step-by-step explanation:

A company makes 140 bags.
41 of the bags have buttons but no zips.
48 of the bags have zips but no buttons.
25 of the bags have neither zips nor buttons.
A bag is selected at random.
What is the probability that the bag has buttons?

Answers

Answer:

41/140 or approximately 29.29%

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 41 by 140 to get 0.29285714285, and round it to the nearest hundredths.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

b= buttons

z= zips

b∩z'=41

b'∩z=48

b'∩z'=25

b=?

b= b∩z+b∩z' (law of total probability)

140=b∩z+b∩z'+b'∩z+b'∩z'  (if this is confusing draw a venn diagram)

140=b∩z+41+48+25

b∩z=26

26+41= 67

The 10% condition, sample size must not be more than 10% of the population size

Data should be approximately normal with sample size, n being greater than 30 (n 30).

The sample selection must be independent, as the outcome of a certain trial must not depend on the outcome of another.

From a group of 15 men and 12 women, how many ways can you select a group of 2?
Answer:

Answers

The total number of ways this can be done together is 105 × 66 = 6930

This is a combination question question it has to do with selection.

In order to group 2 men from 15 men, this can be expressed using the combination formula as shown;

15C2 = 15!/(15-2)!2!

15C2 = 15!/13!2!

15C2 = 15×14/2

15C2 = 105 ways

Similarly in order to group 2 women from 12 men, this can be expressed using the combination formula as shown;

12C2 = 12!/(12-2)!2!

12C2 = 12!/10!2!

12C2 = 12×11/2

12C2 = 66 ways

A rectangular garden is 16 feet wide. Its length is 8 feet more than twice the width. What is the area of the garden?

Answers

Answer:

640 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given:

Width = 16

Length = 2 x Width + 8

Solve for the length:

l = 2(16)+8

l=32+8

l=40

Therefore, the length of the garden is 40 ft.

To find the area, multiply the length and width:

A = lw

A = (16)(40)

A = 640 ft²

4. Find the sum of all the numbers from 100 to 199 that are not divisible by 13.
What is the formula for
this?

Answers

There are 100 numbers in the range 100-199. Find the smallest and largest multiple of 13 in this range. We have

104 = 8•13

195 = 15•13

so there are 15 - 8 + 1 = 8 multiples of 13 between 100 and 199.

Then the sum we want is

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{k=100}^{199} k - \sum_{\ell=8}^{15}13\ell[/tex]

or equivalently,

(100 + 101 + 102 + … + 199) - 13 (8 + 9 + … + 15)

To compute these sums, recall the following formula:

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{i=1}^n i = 1 + 2 + 3 + \cdots + n = \frac{n(n+1)}2[/tex]

Then

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{k=100}^{199} k = \sum_{k=1}^{199} k - \sum_{k=1}^{99} k = \frac{199\cdot200}2 - \frac{99\cdot100}2 = 14,950[/tex]

and

[tex]\displaystyle \sum_{\ell=8}^{15} 13\ell = 13 \left(\sum_{\ell=1}^{15} \ell - \sum_{\ell=1}^7 \ell\right) = 13 \left(\frac{15\cdot16}2 - \frac{7\cdot8}2\right) = 1,196[/tex]

which means the sum we want is 14,950 - 1,196 = 13,754.
