In a meeting, Matt estimates the average miles per gallon (mpg) of the fleet cars is 24 mpg. With a certain level of confidence, he announces the actual mpg is in the 21 to 27 mpg range. What is the Margin of Error?
A. 6 mpg
B. 24 mpg
C. 3 mpg
D. 0.50 mpg
Solution :
= (Lower confidence interval + Upper confidence interval ) / 2
Sample mean = = (21+27) / 2=24
Margin of error = E = Upper confidence interval - = 27-24=3
Margin of error = E=3mpg

2) In order to develop a confidence interval for the average miles per gallon (MPG) for a brand of hybrid car, a simple random sample of 97 cars is selected from the population of 10,000 cars manufactured. The 97 cars had a sample mean MPG of 51.9 MPG and a sample standard deviation of 4.5 MPG. (6 points) a) Compute a 99% confidence interval for the average miles per gallon (MPG) for this brand of car. b) Imagine that an...

1. The following data set contains miles per gallon (MPG) for U.S. cars (sample 1) and for Japanese cars (sample 2). Find the sample mean and sample standard deviation of each sample. Then perform a t-test to identify whether there is a statistically significant difference in mean MPG between the two samples. Use a significance level of 0.05. Using the result comment whether the country of manufacture is a significant effect for the response (MPG) U.S Cars Japanese Cars 18...

Question 18 8 pts A test team takes readings from the miles per gallon (mpg) estimate reading in a new car while driving at 60 mph. The sample consists of 30 readings and has a mean of 31.3 mpg and a standard deviation of 11.7 mpg. The average mpg of all new cars is 27.6 mpg although the standard deviation is unknown. Determine the 95% confidence interval for the true miles per gallon for the new cars. В І у...
