An article in the ASCE Journal of Energy Engineering ("Overview of Reservoir Release Improvements at 20 TVA Dams," Vol. 125, April 1999, pp. 1-17) presents data on dissolved oxygen concentration from streams below 20 dams in the Tennessee Valley Authority system. The sample mean from the observations equals 3.234 and the sample standard deviation is s = 2.121. a) Calculate the 95% two-sided prediction interval on the dissolved oxygen concentration for the next stream that will be tested. (rounded to two decimal places)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

95% confidence interval: (2.241,4.227)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample mean, $\bar{x}$ = 3.234

Sample size, n = 20

Alpha, α = 0.05

Sample standard deviation, σ = 2.121

95% confidence interval:

$\bar{x} \pm t_(critical)\displaystyle(s)/(√(n))$

Putting the values, we get,

$t_(critical)\text{ at degree of freedom 19 and}~\alpha_(0.05) = \pm 2.093$

$3.234 \pm 2.093((2.121)/(√(20)) ) = 3.234 \pm 0.993 = (2.241,4.227)$

(2.241, 4.227) is the required confidence interval.

What is nearest tenth of 0.273

Answers

Answer:

0.3

To round 0.273 to the nearest tenth consider the hundredths’ value of 0.273, which is 7 and equal or more than 5. Therefore, the tenths value of 0.273 increases by 1 to 3.

0.273 rounded to the nearest tenth = 0.3

A manufacturer of college textbooks is interested in estimating the strength of the bindings produced by a particular binding machine. Strength can be measured by recording the force required to pull the pages from the binding. If this force is measured in pounds, how many books should be tested to estimate the average force required to break the binding to within 0.08 lb with 99% confidence? Assume that σ is known to be 0.72. (Exact answer required.)
