The average miles per gallon for a sample of 40 cars of model SX last year was 32.1, with a population standard deviation of 3.8. A sample of 40 cars from this year’s model SX has an average of 35.2 mpg, with a population standard deviation of 5.4.
Find a 99 percent confidence interval for the difference in average mpg for this car brand (this year’s model minus last year’s).Find a 99 percent confidence interval for the difference in average mpg for last year’s model minus this year’s. What does the negative difference mean?
A special interest group reports a tiny margin of error (plus or minus 0.04 percent) for its online survey based on 50,000 responses. Is the margin of error legitimate? (Assume that the group’s math is correct.)

Find a 95 percent confidence interval for the average number of tines for all male deer in this metro park.Find a 98 percent confidence interval for the average number of tines for all male deer in this metro park.arrow_forwardBased on a sample of 100 participants, the average weight loss the first month under a new (competing) weight-loss plan is 11.4 pounds with a population standard deviation of 5.1 pounds. The average weight loss for the first month for 100 people on the old (standard) weight-loss plan is 12.8 pounds, with population standard deviation of 4.8 pounds. Find a 90 percent confidence interval for the difference in weight loss for the two plans( old minus new) Whats the margin of error for your calculated confidence interval?arrow_forwardA 95 percent confidence interval for the average miles per gallon for all cars of a certain type is 32.1, plus or minus 1.8. The interval is based on a sample of 40 randomly selected cars. What units represent the margin of error?Suppose that you want to decrease the margin of error, but you want to keep 95 percent confidence. What should you do?arrow_forward
- Let v₁ = (2,-3,7,8), v2 = (3, 10, -6, 14), v3 = (0, 19, -2, 16), and v₁ = (9, -2, 1, 10). Is the set {V1, V2, V3, V4} a basis for R4? Of the two sets S = {(3x-5y, 4x + 7y, x+9y): x, y = R} and T = {2x-3y+z, -7x-3y²+z, 4x + 3z): x, y, z = R} which is a subspace of R3? (S, T, both, neither) Justify.arrow_forwardCan you help me solve this?arrow_forwardFind a basis and dimension for the null space of the following matrix: 3 -2 0 7 -2 1-1 1 5 3 19-2 8 06 1 -2 -4 -5-6 -9 4-6 11 6 Find a basis and dimension for the column space of the same matrix (above).arrow_forward
