Public health and safety officials have classified the Zika virus as a hazardous threat to pregnant women in Brazil. A study based in Rio found the virus to be more active near a body of water that was found to be polluted. A study of 20 water samples found an average chemical waste of 168 g per mile with a standard deviation of 17.81 g.
Find the 95% confidence interval (in g per mile) for this study.
(Use a table or technology. Round your answers to three decimal
places.)
(. , ) g per mile
Solution :
Given that,
Point estimate = sample mean =
= 168
sample standard deviation = s = 17.81
sample size = n = 20
Degrees of freedom = df = n - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19
At 95% confidence level
= 1 - 95%
=1 - 0.95 =0.05
/2
= 0.025
t/2,df
= t0.025,19 = 2.093
Margin of error = E = t/2,df
* (s /
n)
= 2.093 * (17.81 /
20)
Margin of error = E = 8.335
The 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean is,
±
E
= 168 ± 8.335
= ( 159.665, 176.335 )

10. Write a one-page summary of the attached paper? INTRODUCTION Many problems can develop in activated sludge operation that adversely affect effluent quality with origins in the engineering, hydraulic and microbiological components of the process. The real "heart" of the activated sludge system is the development and maintenance of a mixed microbial culture (activated sludge) that treats wastewater and which can be managed. One definition of a wastewater treatment plant operator is a "bug farmer", one who controls the aeration...
