Answer 1

Answer:

The result obtained is: 6.0077, 215.5437

Step-by-step explanation:

the previous questionnaire is incomplete, attached and answered as requested

with the data of the exercise we obtain this information

n x-bar s

Research 17 593.5882 160.7008

Primary care 16 482.8125 181.2292

the exercise invites us to find the differences between the measures of a random sample of enrollments in medical schools where some specialize in research and others in primary care, with this we know that the variations in the population are different

Point estimate = 593.5882-482.8125 = 110.7757

Given the:

df = 16-1 = 15

we found that:

t * = tinv (0.1,15) = 1,753

We observe that we obtain a margin of error like this:

Margin of error = 1,753 * SQRT ((160.7008 ^ 2/17) + (181.2292 ^ 2/16)) = 104.7680

taking into account a 90% confidence interval

= 110.7757 +/- 104.768

The result obtained is: 6.0077, 215.5437
