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

[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!

Answer from: Quest

b. the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).

step-by-step explanation:

since the length of the interval is the same in each case, we only need to compare the change in y-value to see which is greater.

f(-2) = -3f(1) = 6 . . . estimated from f(x) = (x+2)^2-3, which matches points on the graph (-1,-2) and (0, 1)

so the change in y-value for function f is (6 )) = 9.

the table tells us

g(-2) = 1g(1) = 31

so the change in y-value for function g is (31 -1) = 30.

the change in y-value of f(x) on the interval is less than the change in y-value of g(x) on the same interval, so the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).
