A random sample of 100 felony trials showed a sample mean waiting time between arrest and trial = 173 days with a population standard deviation of waiting times = 28 days. Find a 99% confidence interval for the population mean waiting time. Stats question, I'm really struggling here. Please help me!

165.78 < μ < 180.22

Step-by-step explanation: Confidence Interval of a mean is a method to estimate the true population mean, i.e., we can get an interval where the true mean exists.

A confidence interval is calculated as

x ±

z is z-score for 99% confidence, which is: z = 2.58

Then, the estimate is

173 ±

173 ± 2.58*2.8

173 ± 7.224

lower limit: 173 - 7.224 = 165.78

upper limit: 173 + 7.224 = 180.22

The 99% confidence interval of the mean is between 165.78 and 180.22 and it means that the true mean of this population is between those numbers with 99% of confidence.

22

step-by-step explanation:

the answer would be 1 1/72

step-by-step explanation:

you can rewrite the equation by separating the parts and then solving individually:

10-9=1

1/8 - 1/9=

find l c d and then combine:

1 1/72
