Customers arrive at a movie theater at the advertised movie time only to find that they have to sit through several previews and prepreview ads before the movie starts. Many complain that the time devoted to previews is too long (The Wall Street Journal, October 12, 2012). A preliminary sample conducted by The Wall Street Journal showed that the standard deviation of the amount of time devoted to previews was four minutes. Use that as a planning value for the standard deviation in answering the following questions. Round your answer to next whole number.

Customers arrive at a movie theater at the advertised movie time only to find that they have to sit through several previews and prepreview ads before the movie starts. Many complain that the time devoted to previews is too long (The Wall Street Journal, October 12, 2012). A preliminary sample conducted by The Wall Street Journal showed that the standard deviation of the amount of time devoted to previews was four minutes. Use that as a planning value for the standard deviation in answering the following questions.

a. If we want to estimate the population mean time for previews at movie theaters with a margin of error of 75 seconds, what sample size should be used? Assume 95% confidence.

b) If we want to estimate the population mean time for previews at movie theaters with a margin of error of 1 minute, what sample size should be used? Assume 95% confidence

A) n = 39

B) n = 61

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that;

Confidence level (c) = 95% = 0.95

Population standard deviation (σ) = 4 minutes = 4 x 60 seconds = 240 seconds

Margin of error (E) = 75 seconds

A) Formula for sample size is given as;

n = (Z_(α/2)•(σ)/E)²

Now, for confidence level,

1 - α = 0.95,we can find (Z_(α/2)

So, α = 1 - 0.95 =0.05

Thus, α/2 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

Thus,(Z_(α/2) = Z_0.025

Looking at the table i attached, at (Z_(α/2) = Z_0.025, we have a value of 1.96

Hence, we can now find the sample size.

So, n = (Z_(α/2)•(σ)/E)² = ((1.96 x 240)/75)² = 39.33 ≈ 39

B) C remains 0.95

(σ) remains 240 seconds

While E is now = 1 minute = 60 seconds

From above, (Z_(α/2) = 1.96

Thus,

from n = (Z_(α/2)•(σ)/E)²,

n = ((1.96 x 240)/60)² = 61.47 ≈ 61

0.5 meters per second

step-by-step explanation:

the average speed between 2 seconds and 8 seconds is 0.5 meters per second.

hope this ! mark brainliest!

you divide the cost ($15) by the quantity (6) to get your questions answer. the yo-yo costs $2.50. hope this : )!
