In order to estimate the average electricity usage per month, a sample of 125 residential customers were selected, and the month

ly electricity usage was determined using the customers' meter readings. Assume a population variance of 12,100kWh2. Use Excel to find the 98% confidence interval for the mean electricity usage in kilowatt hours. Round your answers to two decimal places and use ascending order.

Answer:

[895.05; 940.81]kWh

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Be X: monthly electricity usage by a residential customer

X~N

σ²: 12100KWh²

To estimate the population mean using a 98% CI you have to use the following formula

[X[bar]±Z_{1-\alpha /2} * \frac{Sigma}{\sqrt{n} }]

1-α: 0.98

α0.02

α/2: 0.01

1-α/2:0.99

Z_{1-\alpha /2}= Z_{0.99}= 2.326

n= 125

X[bar]= ∑X/n= 228565/125= 917.93

[917.93±2.326 * \frac{110}{\sqrt{125} }]

[895.05; 940.81]

Using a 98% confidence level you'd expect that the interval [895.05; 940.81]kWh will include the average monthly electricity usage of residential customers.

I hope this helps!

If a random variable X is exponentially distributed with parameter λ=2, then P(X≥1) is equal to
Rasek [7]

Answer:

D. 0.1353

B. 0.0473

Step-by-step explanation:

For an exponentially distributed random variable, the cumulative distribution function is:

P(x\leq a) = 1 - e^{-\lambda a}\\P(x\geq a) = e^{-\lambda a}

with parameter λ=2, then P(X≥1) is equal to:

P(x\geq 1) = e^{-2*1}=0.1353

D. 0.1353

with parameter λ=1.5, then P(2≤X≤4) is equal to

P(2\leq x \leq 4) = P(x \leq 4) - P(x\leq 2)\\P(2\leq x \leq 4) =1 - (e^{-1.5*4}) - (1-(e^{-1.5*2}))\\P(2\leq x \leq 4) = 0.0473

B. 0.0473

What is the following quotient? StartFraction 1 Over 1 + StartRoot 3 EndRoot EndFraction StartFraction StartRoot 3 EndRoot Over
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

  D.  StartFraction negative 1 + StartRoot 3 EndRoot Over 2 EndFraction

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator. Then the denominator is the difference of squares, which will be rational. This simplification is called "rationalizing the denominator."

  \dfrac{1}{1+\sqrt{3}}=\dfrac{1}{1+\sqrt{3}}\cdot\dfrac{1-\sqrt{3}}{1-\sqrt{3}}=\dfrac{1-\sqrt{3}}{1^2-(\sqrt{3})^2}\\\\=\dfrac{1-\sqrt{3}}{-2}=\boxed{\dfrac{-1+\sqrt{3}}{2}}

It costs $5.15 to rent a kayak for 1 hour at a local state park. The price per hour stays the same for up to 5 hours of rental.
iren [92.7K]

5.15 x 5 = 25.75

25.75 + 3.75 = 29.5

So your answer is $29.50

Hope it helps! :D

Given that 1 inch = 2.54 cm, 1 cm3 is equal to
Mashutka [201]
<span>We know that 1 cm3 is 1 cm * 1 cm * 1 cm, so in inches: 1 cm3 = 1 inch3/2.54^3 cm3 = 1/2.54*1/2.54*1/2.54 = 1/16.387 = 0.061 inch3 Another way to solve is: 1 inch = 1 inch/2.54 cm = 0.3937 cm Then 1 inch3 = 0.3937^3 cm = 0.061 inch3</span>
