Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.

Transcribed Image Text:A 2008 survey of low- and middle-income households conducted by Demos, a liberal public group,
showed that consumers aged 65 years and older had an average credit card debt of $11,535 and
consumers in the 50- to 64-year age group had an average credit card debt of $10642 at the time of the
survey (USA TODAY, July 28, 2009). Suppose that these averages were based on random samples of
1000 and 1200 people for the two groups, respectively. Further assume that the population standard
deviations for the two groups were $2200 and $2500, respectively. Let ul and µ2 be the respective
population means for the two groups, people aged 65 years and older and people in the 50- to 64-year
age group.
(a) What is the point estimate of u1- p2?
(b) Construct 98% confidence interval for u1 – µ2 and interpret the results.
(c) What is the margin of error?
(d) Conduct the appropriate two-tailed test at 5% level of significance.
Expert Answer
Step 1
Hello. Since your question has multiple sub-parts, we will solve first three sub-parts for you. If
you want remaining sub-parts to be solved, then please resubmit the whole question and
specify those sub-parts you want us to solve.
Step 2
We have 2 groups. Group -1 consists of people aged 65 years and more. Group -2 consists of
people aged 50-64 years.
Average credit card debt for sample of Group-1 = $ 11535.
Average credit card debt for sample of Group-2 = S 10642.
Sample ,n1 =1000 and Sample, n2 = 1200.
Population SDs for Group 1 = $ 2200 and for Group 2 = $ 2500.
(a) The point estimate for difference in population means is given by the difference in sample
means.
Thus, Point estimate of µ – 42 is ; -.
So, Point estimate( ui – p2) = $I1535 – $10642 = $893

(b) Now, here the population standard deviations are given and the sample size is large (>30),
hence we need to calculate the critical values of Z-statistic at alpha = 0.02.
The confidence interval at 98% confidence level is given by,
tn-2
(부+ 부)
Now,
(-1)i+(-1'a

= 10283. 44
Thus,
[893 + Z% V10283.44
= [893 + 2.326 x 101.41]
= [S657. 13, $1128. 87]

(c) The margin oferror is given by;
(m-1)+(-1)2
