Question 924307: A machine produces parts with lengths that are normally distributed with σ = 0.58. A sample of 20 parts has a mean length of 75.21.
(a) Give a point estimate for μ. (Give your answer correct to two decimal places.)
(b) Find the 90% confidence maximum error of estimate for μ. (Give your answer correct to three decimal places.)
(c) Find the 90% confidence interval for μ. (Give your answer correct to three decimal places.)
Lower Limit
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A machine produces parts with lengths that are normally distributed with σ = 0.58. A sample of 20 parts has a mean length of 75.21.
--------------------------
(a) Give a point estimate for μ. (Give your answer correct to two decimal places.)
Ans:: u = 75.21
-----------------------------
(b) Find the 90% confidence maximum error of estimate for μ. (Give your answer correct to three decimal places.)
ME = 1.645*0.58/sqrt(20)
---------------------------------
(c) Find the 90% confidence interval for μ. (Give your answer correct to three decimal places.)
90% CI:: 75.21 - 1.645*(0.58/sqrt(20)) < u < 75.21 + 1.645*(0.58/sqrt(20))
Lower Limit:: 75.21-1.645*(0.58/sqrt(20))
Upper Limit::: 75.21+1.645*(0.58/sqrt(20))
