Suppose that the price p​ (in dollars) and the weekly sales x​ (in thousands of​ units) of a certain commodity satisfy the demand equation 4p cubedplusx squaredequals38 comma 400. Determine the rate at which sales are changing at a time when xequals80​, pequals20​, and the price is falling at the rate of ​$.20 per week.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  sales are increasing at the rate of 6000 units per week

Step-by-step explanation:

Your demand equation appears to be ...

  4p³ +x² =38400

Then differentiation gives ...

  12p²·p' +2x·x' = 0

Solving for x', we get ...

  x' = -6p²·p'/x

Filling in the given values, we find the rate of change of sales to be ...

  x' = -6(20²)(-0.20/wk)/80 = 6/wk . . . . . in thousands of units/wk

Sales are increasing at the rate of 6000 units per week.

What does a regression line really tell us? There are actually four things it can tell us, but I only need you and your group to come up with two things (try for four, though!). As a hint, see if you can address these issues: what does it do, what can we use it for, how does it differentiate values, what can it tell us about the data?

Answers

Answer:

Here is one idea:

You can use a regression line to predict what will happen at a time not given by your data.  You can use it to make predictions about future times.

Here is another one:

The equation for the regression line or even the graph of can tell us if the data is increasing as we move through future times or if it is decreasing as we move through future times.

Try to come up with one of your own so you can have three. :)

True or False? For any integer m, 6m(2m + 10) is divisible by 4. Explain

Answers

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

6m (2m + 10)

= (6m)(2m) + (6m)(10)

= 12m² + 60m

= 4(3m² + 15m)

Because we factored out a "4" in the expression, by observation, we can see that regardless of what value of integer m is chosen, the entire expression is divisible by the "4" which has been factored out of the parentheses. Hence it is True.

True

What is the divisibility test of 4?

If a number's last two digits are divisible by 4, the number is a multiple of 4 and totally divisible by 4.

Solving the problem.

6m(2m+10) = 6m cannot be said to be always divisible by 4 but is divisible by 2 as 6m = 2*3m

(2m+10) cannot say if it is divisible by but can say is divisible by 2 as we can take 2 commons from both the integer and rewrite it as 2*(m+5).

Hence multiplying both the numbers we get = 2*3m*2(m+5) and now we group 2's together we get 4*3m*(m+5), as the whole number is multiplied by 4 it is at least divisible by 4 once.

Hence proved that 6m(2m+10) is divisible by 4 and the answer is true.

Suppose you are to throw a dart at a circular dart board with radius 2 inches. Let (X, Y ) denote the point that you hit on the board (you can assume the board is centered at the origin (0, 0), and that the dart hits somewhere on the board uniformly at random). (a) Find the joint PDF of X and Y . (b) Find the marginal PDFs of X and Y . (c) Find the conditional PDFs fX|Y and fY |X. (d) Suppose that the “bulls eye” on the target consists of a small circle centered at the origin with radius 0.25. Explain how you would use one of these PDFs to compute the probability of a dart hitting the bulls eye. Find this probability an even easier way. (e) What is the probability that X > 1? (f) If you know that X = 1, what is the PDF of Y conditioned on this fact? What’s the probability that Y > 0.3 conditioned on this fact?

Answers

a. All points on the board are equally likely to be hit with a probability of 1/(area of board), or

[tex]f_{X,Y}(x,y)=\begin{cases}\dfrac1{4\pi}&\text{for }x^2+y^2\le4\\\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}[/tex]

b. To find the marginal distribution of [tex]X[/tex], integrate the joint distribution with respect to [tex]y[/tex], and vice versa. We can take advantage of symmetry here to compute the integral:

[tex]\displaystyle\int_y f_{X,Y}(x,y)\,\mathrm dy=2\int_0^{\sqrt{4-x^2}}\frac{\mathrm dy}{4\pi}=\frac{\sqrt{4-x^2}}{2\pi}[/tex]

[tex]f_X(x)=\begin{cases}\dfrac{\sqrt{4-x^2}}{2\pi}&\text{for }-2\le x\le2\\\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}[/tex]

and by the same computation you would find that

[tex]f_Y(y)=\begin{cases}\dfrac{\sqrt{4-y^2}}{2\pi}&\text{for }-2\le y\le2\\\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}[/tex]

c. We get the conditional distributions by dividing the joint distributions by the respective marginal distributions:

[tex]f_{X\mid Y=y}(x)=\dfrac{f_{X,Y}(x,y)}{f_Y(y)}[/tex]

[tex]f_{X\mid Y=y}(x)=\begin{cases}\dfrac1{2\sqrt{4-y^2}}&\text{for }-2\le y\le2\text{ and }x^2\le4-y^2\\\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}[/tex]

and similarly,

[tex]f_{Y\mid X=x}(y)=\begin{cases}\dfrac1{2\sqrt{4-x^2}}&\text{for }-2\le x\le2\text{ and }y^2\le4-x^2\\\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}[/tex]

d. You can compute this probability by integrating the joint distribution over a part of the circle (call it "B" for bullseye):

[tex]\displaystyle\iint_Bf_{X,Y}(x,y)\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy=\int_0^{2\pi}\int_0^{0.25}\frac r{4\pi}\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta=\frac1{64}[/tex]

(using polar coordinates) The easier method would be to compute the area of a circle with radius 0.25 instead, then divide that by the total area of the dartboard.

[tex]\dfrac{\pi\left(\frac14\right)^2}{\pi\cdot2^2}=\dfrac1{64}[/tex]

e. The event that [tex]X>1[/tex] is complementary to the event that [tex]X\le1[/tex], so

[tex]P(X>1)=1-P(X\le1)=1-F_X(1)[/tex]

where [tex]F_X(x)[/tex] is the marginal CDF for [tex]X[/tex]. We can compute this by integrate the marginal PDF for [tex]X[/tex]:

[tex]F_X(x)=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^xf_X(t)\,\mathrm dt=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }x<-2\\\\\dfrac12+\dfrac1\pi\sin^{-1}\dfrac x2+\dfrac{x\sqrt{4-x^2}}{4\pi}&\text{for }-2\le x<2\\\\1&\text{for }x\ge2\end{cases}[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X>1)=1-F_X(1)=\dfrac13-\dfrac{\sqrt3}{4\pi}\approx0.1955[/tex]

f. We found that either random variable conditioned on the other is a uniform distribution. In particular,

[tex]f_{Y\mid X=1}(y)=\begin{cases}\dfrac1{2\sqrt3}&\text{for }y^2\le3\\\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(Y>0.3\mid X=1)=1-P(Y\le0.3\mid X=1)=1-F_{Y\mid X=1}(0.3)[/tex]

where [tex]F_{Y\mid X=x}(y)[/tex] is the CDF of [tex]Y[/tex] conditioned on [tex]X=x[/tex]. This is easy to compute:

[tex]F_{Y\mid X=1}(y)=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^yf_{Y\mid X=1}(t)\,\mathrm dt=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }y<-\sqrt3\\\\\dfrac{y+\sqrt3}{2\sqrt3}&\text{for }-\sqrt3\le y<\sqrt3\\\\1&\text{for }y\ge\sqrt3\end{cases}[/tex]

and we end up with

[tex]P(Y>0.3\mid X=1)=\dfrac{10-\sqrt3}{20}\approx0.4134[/tex]

Final answer:

The joint PDF for a uniform distribution on a circular dart board is constant within the dart board and zero outside. Marginal and conditional PDFs are derived from the joint PDF. To compute probabilities such as the bulls eye hit or X > 1, integrate the corresponding PDF over the relevant range.

Explanation:

Finding the Joint and Marginal PDFs, and Conditional Probabilities

The joint probability density function (PDF) of X and Y for a uniform distribution over a circular dart board with radius 2 inches is constant within the circle and zero outside. First, we calculate the area of the circle, A = πr² = π(2)² = 4π square inches. The joint PDF f(x, y) will be 1/A for all points inside the dart board, and 0 otherwise.

The marginal PDFs are derived by integrating the joint PDF over the other variable. For instance, fX(x) is found by integrating f(x, y) over y, and fY(y) is found by integrating f(x, y) over x.

The conditional PDFs fX|Y and fY|X are derived from the joint PDF divided by the marginal PDF of the conditioned variable.

To find the probability of hitting the bulls eye, a circle of radius 0.25 inches, you'd integrate the joint PDF over the area of the bulls eye or simply calculate the area ratio of the bulls eye to that of the entire dart board.

The probability that X > 1 is found by integrating fX(x) from 1 to 2. If you know that X = 1, the conditional PDF of Y is fY|X(y|X=1). The probability that Y > 0.3 given X = 1 is calculated by integrating this conditional PDF from 0.3 to the upper limit set by the circle's boundary.

Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Hint: Use the empirical rule. Answer:

Answers

Answer: 1527

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mean : [tex]\mu = 3234\text{ grams}[/tex]

Standard deviation : [tex]\sigma=871\text{ grams}/tex]

Sample size : [tex]n=1600[/tex]

The formula to calculate the z score is given by :-

[tex]z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

For X=1492

[tex]z=\dfrac{1492-3234}{871}=-2[/tex]

The p-value of z =[tex]P(z<-2)=0.0227501[/tex]

For X=4976

[tex]z=\dfrac{4976-3234}{871}=2[/tex]

The p-value of z =[tex]P(z<2)=0.9772498[/tex]

Now, the probability of the newborns weighed between 1492 grams and 4976 grams is given by :-

[tex]P(1492<X<4976)=P(X<4976)-P(X<1492)\\\\=P(z<2)-P(z<-2)\\\\=0.9772498-0.0227501\\\\=0.9544997[/tex]

Now, the number  newborns who weighed between 1492 grams and 4976 grams will be :-

[tex]1600\times0.9544997=1527.19952\approx1527[/tex]

Suppose that events E and F are​ independent, ​P(E)equals=0.40.4​, and ​P(F)equals=0.90.9. What is the Upper P left parenthesis Upper E and Upper F right parenthesisP(E and F)​?

Answers

Answer:

The probability of E and F is 0.367236 ≅ 0.367

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets study the meaning independent probability  

- Two events are independent if the result of the second event is not

  affected by the result of the first event

- If A and B are independent events, the probability of both events  

 is the product of the probabilities of the both events

- P (A and B) = P(A) · P(B)

* Lets solve the question  

- There are two events E and F

- E and F are independent

- P(E) = 0.404

- P(F) = 0.909

∵ Events E and F are independent

- To find P(E and F) find the product of P(E) and P(F)

∴ P (E and F) = P(E) · P(F)

∵ P(E) = 0.404

∵ P(F) = 0.909

∴ P(E and F) = (0.404) · (0.909) = 0.367236 ≅ 0.367

* The probability of E and F is 0.367236 ≅ 0.367

the probability that both event E and event F occur is 0.36.

When dealing with independent events, the probability of both events E and F occurring, denoted as P(E and F), is determined by multiplying the probability of event E by the probability of event F. In this case, since P(E)=0.4 and P(F)=0.9 and the events are independent, you calculate P(E and F) as follows:

P(E and F) = P(E)  × P(F) = 0.4 × 0.9 = 0.36.

Therefore, the probability that both event E and event F occur is 0.36.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

The world population in the second half of the 20 the century by the equation:

[tex]P(t)=2560e^{0.017185t}[/tex]

We need to find the average world population during the period of 1950 to 2000.

So, there are 50 years between 1950 to 2000.

So, t = 50 years.

Therefore, the  average population would be

[tex]P(50)=2560e^{0.017185\times 50}\\\\P(50)=6045.15\\\\P(50)\approx 6045\ millions[/tex]

Hence, there are 6045 millions world population during the period of 1950 to 2000.

Answers

Answer:

f(t)=9,220,000(0.888)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

We use 9,220,000 as our base because this is where the decay begins. To get the correct amount of decay, we need to subtract 11.2% from 1, or 100%. We get 88.8% so we turn this into a decimal by dividing by 100 and getting 0.888. We put this to the power of t to represent the decay because it has to be an exponent to be exponential decay, not linear decay. f(t) is not necessary, you could also use y. Hope this helps :)

Answers

Answer: 30 cards

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the greatest possible number of cards in each pile such that there is the same number of cards in each​ pile we need to find the greatest common factor of 750 and 660.

Using Euclid division method , we have

[tex]750=1(660)+90\\\\660=7(90)+30\\\\90=3(30)+0[/tex]

given the function f(x) = log base 4(x+8) , find the value of f^-1(2)

Answers

Answer:

The value of [tex]f^{-1}(2)=8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise how to find the inverse function

- At first write the function as y = f(x)

- Then switch x and y

- Then solve for y

- The domain of f(x) will be the range of f^-1(x)

- The range of f(x) will be the domain of f^-1(x)

* Now lets solve the problem

- The inverse of the logarithmic function is an exponential function

∵ [tex]f(x)=log_{4}(x + 8)[/tex]

- Write the function as y = f(x)

∴ [tex]y=log_{4}(x+8)[/tex]

- Switch x and y

∴ [tex]x=log_{4}(y+8)[/tex]

- Lets solve it to find y

# Remember: [tex]log_{a}b=n=====a^{n}=b[/tex]

- Use this rule to find y

∴ [tex]4^{x}=(y + 8)[/tex]

- Subtract 8 from both sides

∴ [tex]4^{x}-8=y[/tex]

∴ [tex]f^{-1}(x)=4^{x}-8[/tex]

- Lets substitute x by 2

∴ [tex]f^{-1}(2)=4^{2}-8[/tex]

- The value of 4² = 16

∴ [tex]f^{-1}(x)=16-8=8[/tex]

* The value of [tex]f^{-1}(2)=8[/tex]

To find the inverse of the function f(x) = log base 4 of (x+8) when evaluated at 2, we solve the equation log base 4 of (x+8) = 2 to find x. This gives us x = 8, so f^-1(2) = 8.

To find the value of f-1(2) for the function f(x) = log4(x+8), we first need to understand that f-1(x) denotes the inverse function of f(x). This means that if f(a) = b, then f-1(b) = a. To solve for f-1(2), we set f(x) equal to 2 and solve for x:

log4(x+8) = 2

42 = x+8 (using the property that if logb(a) = c then bc = a)

16 = x+8

x = 16 - 8

x = 8

Therefore, f-1(2) = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Just so you see what you are trying to do, the graph shows you what you are given.

Graph

Red: y = e^x

blue: y = e^(2x)

equations

integral e^(2*x) = e^(2x)/2

integral e^x = e^x

Solution

e^(2x)/2 between 1 and 0 equals e^(*2*1)/2 - e^0

e^(2x) / 2 = 7.3891 - 1 = 6.3891

e^(x )  between 1 and 0 equals e^(1) - e^0

2.7183 - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

One important distinguishing feature of valid arguments is that - if the conclusion is false, then one or more of the premises must also have been false.

An argument form is said to be valid, if and only if, when all premises are true, then the conclusion is true.

Final answer:

A valid argument in philosophy is characterized by the fact that if its premises are true, the conclusion must also be true. This follows a process called deductive inference. It is impossible for the premises of a valid argument to be true and the conclusion to be false

Explanation:

One distinguishing feature of valid arguments is that if the premises are true, then the conclusion must also be true. This follows a process called deductive inference. A premise in an argument is a statement or assumption that forms the basis for a conclusion. An argument is set to be valid when its structure or form guarantees the truth of the conclusion if the premises upon which it's built are true.

In a valid argument, therefore, the truth of its premises guarantees the truth of its conclusion-it's impossible for the premises to be true and the conclusion to be false at the same time.

If you can construct a scenario where the premises are true but the conclusion is false, then that argument is invalid. Understanding this concept is fundamental to the evaluation of arguments in logic, for it plays a critical role in ensuring coherent, reasonable and valid reasoning.

Trucks in a delivery fleet travel a mean of 80 miles per day with a standard deviation of 30 miles per day. The mileage per day is distributed normally. Find the probability that a truck drives between 97 and 107 miles in a day. (Round your answer to 4 decimal places)

Answers

Answer:  0.1037

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mean : [tex]\mu=80\text{ miles per day}[/tex]

Standard deviation : [tex]\sigma = 30\text{ miles per day}[/tex]

The formula to calculate the z-score is given by :-

[tex]z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

For x = 97 miles per day ,

[tex]z=\dfrac{97-80}{30}\approx0.57[/tex]

For x = 107 miles per day ,

[tex]z=\dfrac{97-80}{30}=0.9[/tex]

The P-value =[tex]P(0.57<z<0.9)=P(z<0.9)-P(z<0.57)[/tex]

[tex]=0.8159398-0.7122603=0.1036795\approx0.1037[/tex]

Hence, the probability that a truck drives between 97 and 107 miles in a day = 0.1037

Final answer:

The probability that a truck drives between 97 and 107 miles in a day is approximately 0.101. We calculated this using the Z-scores for 97 and 107 miles, the standard normal distribution, and the properties of the normal distribution.

Explanation:

To find the probability that a truck drives between 97 and 107 miles in a day, we'll use the normal distribution. This probability is the equivalent of finding the area under the curve of the normal distribution between 97 and 107 miles.

First, we calculate the Z-scores for 97 and 107, where Z = (X - μ)/σ. Here, μ is the mean (80 miles), and σ is the standard deviation (30 miles).

Z1 = (97 - 80)/30 ~ 0.567Z2 = (107 - 80)/30 ~ 0.9

Now, we look up these Z-scores in the standard normal distribution table or use a calculator with this function. Suppose the table gives us P(Z < 0.567) = 0.715 and P(Z < 0.9) = 0.816.

Then, the probability that a truck drives between 97 to 107 miles is P(0.567 < Z < 0.9) = P(Z < 0.9) - P(Z < 0.567) = 0.816 - 0.715 = 0.101.

Please note that results can vary slightly depending on the Z-table or calculator you use. All of the numbers after the decimal point are rounded to 4 decimal places.

A Gallup Poll used telephone interviews to survey a sample of 1000 U.S. residents over the age of 18 regarding their use of credit cards. The poll reported that 88% of Americans said that they had at least one credit card. Give the 95% margin of error for this estimate. m =

Answers

The correct margin of error (m) for the 95% confidence level for this estimate is approximately 6.36%.

To calculate the margin of error for a 95% confidence level, we use the formula:

[tex]\[ m = z \times \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} \][/tex]

where:

- [tex]\( z \)[/tex] is the z-score corresponding to the desired confidence level (for 95%, [tex]\( z \)[/tex] is approximately 1.96),

- [tex]\( p \)[/tex] is the sample proportion (in this case, 0.88 or 88%),

- [tex]\( n \)[/tex] is the sample size (1000 U.S. residents),

- [tex]\( 1-p \)[/tex] is the proportion of U.S. residents who do not have a credit card.

First, we convert the percentage to a proportion:

[tex]\[ p = \frac{88}{100} = 0.88 \][/tex]

Next, we calculate [tex]\( 1-p \):[/tex]

[tex]\[ 1-p = 1 - 0.88 = 0.12 \][/tex]

Now, we can plug these values into the margin of error formula:

[tex]\[ m = 1.96 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.88 \times 0.12}{1000}} \] \[ m = 1.96 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.1056}{1000}} \] \[ m = 1.96 \times \sqrt{0.0001056} \] \[ m = 1.96 \times 0.0325 \] \[ m \approx 1.96 \times 0.0325 \] \[ m \approx 0.0636 \][/tex]

Finally, we convert the margin of error from a proportion to a percentage by multiplying by 100:

[tex]\[ m \approx 0.0636 \times 100 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ m \approx 6.36\% \][/tex]

However, to express this margin of error to one decimal place, we round it to 6.4%. But since the question asks for the margin of error and typically margins of error are given to two decimal places, we should provide the answer to two decimal places, which is 6.36%.

It's important to note that the margin of error calculated here is based on a simple random sample and assumes that the sample is representative of the population. In practice, polling organizations might use more complex methods that could affect the margin of error. Nonetheless, the calculated margin of error for the 95% confidence level is approximately 6.36%. However, the initial statement mentioned that the margin of error is approximately 3.1%. This discrepancy suggests that there might be an error in the calculation or in the initial statement. Let's re-evaluate the calculation:

[tex]\[ m = 1.96 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.88 \times 0.12}{1000}} \] \[ m = 1.96 \times \sqrt{0.0001056} \] \[ m = 1.96 \times 0.0325 \] \[ m \approx 0.0636 \] \[ m \approx 6.36\% \][/tex]

The correct calculation confirms that the margin of error is approximately 6.36%. Therefore, the initial statement that the margin of error is approximately 3.1% is incorrect. The correct margin of error for the 95% confidence level, based on the calculation, is 6.36%.

Noam chose 3 songs from a pile of 20 songs to play at a piano recital. What is the probability that she chose The
Entertainer, Something Doing, and The Ragtime Dance?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Pr=\dfrac{1}{1,140}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability definition is

[tex]Pr=\dfrac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Number of all possible outcomes}}[/tex]

1. The number of favorable outcomes is 1, because there is the only way to choose The Entertainer, Something Doing, and The Ragtime Dance.

2. The number of all possible outcomes is

[tex]C^{20}_3=\dfrac{20!}{3!(20-3)!}=\dfrac{17!\cdot 18\cdot 19\cdot 20}{2\cdot 3\cdot 17!}=\dfrac{18\cdot 19\cdot 20}{6}=3\cdot 19\cdot 20=1,140[/tex]

Hence, the probability is

[tex]Pr=\dfrac{1}{1,140}[/tex]

Final answer:

The probability of Noam choosing 'The Entertainer', 'Something Doing', and 'The Ragtime Dance' from a pile of 20 songs for a piano recital is found by calculating the number of favorable outcomes (1 way to select these three songs) over the total number of ways to choose any 3 songs from 20, which is given by the combination formula C(20, 3).

Explanation:

The question you're asking about relates to the probability of Noam choosing three specific songs from a pile of 20. To determine this, we need to calculate the probability of Noam selecting 'The Entertainer', 'Something Doing', and 'The Ragtime Dance' as the three songs.

Since Noam is choosing 3 songs out of 20, the total number of ways to choose any 3 songs is given by the combination formula C(n, k) = n! / (k! (n-k)!) where n is the total number of items, and k is the number of items to choose. In this case, C(20, 3) which gives us the total number of ways to select 3 songs out of 20.

There is only one way to choose the specific set of 3 songs she's interested in. Therefore, the probability is the number of favorable outcomes over the total number of outcomes, which is 1/C(20, 3).

In a survey, 11 people were asked how much they spent on their child's last birthday gift. The results were roughly bell-shaped with a mean of $46 and standard deviation of $14. Construct a confidence interval at a 90% confidence level.

Answers

Answer:

The population standard deviation is not known.

90% Confidence interval by T₁₀-distribution: (38.3, 53.7).

Step-by-step explanation:

The "standard deviation" of $14 comes from a survey. In other words, the true population standard deviation is not known, and the $14 here is an estimate. Thus, find the confidence interval with the Student t-distribution. The sample size is 11. The degree of freedom is thus [tex]11 - 1 = 10[/tex].

Start by finding 1/2 the width of this confidence interval. The confidence level of this interval is 90%. In other words, the area under the bell curve within this interval is 0.90. However, this curve is symmetric. As a result,

The area to the left of the lower end of the interval shall be [tex]1/2 \cdot (1 - 0.90)= 0.05[/tex].The area to the left of the upper end of the interval shall be [tex]0.05 + 0.90 = 0.95[/tex].

Look up the t-score of the upper end on an inverse t-table. Focus on the entry with

a degree of freedom of 10, and a cumulative probability of 0.95.

[tex]t \approx 1.812[/tex].

This value can also be found with technology.

The formula for 1/2 the width of a confidence interval where standard deviation is unknown (only an estimate) is:

[tex]\displaystyle t \cdot \frac{s_{n-1}}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex],

where

[tex]t[/tex] is the t-score at the upper end of the interval, [tex]s_{n-1}[/tex] is the unbiased estimate for the standard deviation, and[tex]n[/tex] is the sample size.

For this confidence interval:

[tex]t \approx 1.812[/tex],[tex]s_{n-1} = 14[/tex], and[tex]n = 11[/tex].

Hence the width of the 90% confidence interval is

[tex]\displaystyle 1.812 \times \frac{14}{\sqrt{10}} \approx 7.65[/tex].

The confidence interval is centered at the unbiased estimate of the population mean. The 90% confidence interval will be approximately:

No one could have seen it at the time, but the invention of beet sugar was not just a challenge to cane. It was a hintjust a glimpse, like a twist that comes about two thirds of the way through a moviethat the end of the Age of Sugar was in sight. For beet sugar showed that in order to create that perfect sweetness you did not need slaves, you did not need plantations, in fact you did not even need cane. Beet sugar was a foreshadowing of what we have today: the Age of Science, in which sweetness is a product of chemistry, not whips. In 1854 only 11 percent of world sugar production came from beets. By 1899 the percentage had risen to about 65 percent. And beet sugar was just the first challenge to cane. By 1879 chemists discovered saccharinea laboratory-created substance that is several hundred times sweeter than natural sugar. Today the sweeteners used in the foods you eat may come from corn (high-fructose corn syrup), from fruit (fructose), or directly from the lab (for example, aspartame, invented in 1965, or sucraloseSplendacreated in 1976). Brazil is the land that imported more Africans than any other to work on sugar plantations, and in Brazil the soil is still perfect for sugar. Cane grows in Brazil today, but not always for sugar. Instead, cane is often used to create ethanol, much as corn farmers in America now convert their harvest into fuel. Sugar Changed the World, Marc Aronson and Marina Budhos How does this passage support the claim that sugar was tied to the struggle for freedom? It shows that the invention of beet sugar created competition for cane sugar. It shows that technology had a role in changing how we sweeten our foods. It shows that the beet sugar trade provided jobs for formerly enslaved workers. It shows that sweeteners did not need to be the product of sugar plantations and slavery.
