Computer use.
A random sample of 197 12th-grade students from across the United States was surveyed, and it was observed that these students spent an average of 23.5 hours on the computer per week, with a standard deviation of 8.7 hours. If we plan to use these data to construct a 99% confident interval, the margin of error will be approximately.

(a.) 0.07
(b.) 0.62
(c.) 1.6
(d.) 8.7

Answer:

The margin of error will be approximately =

(c.) 1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample of 12th-grade students = 197

Average hours spent on computer per week = 23.5 hours

Total hours spent = 4,625 (197 * 23.5) hours

Standard deviation = 8.7 hours

Confidence interval = 99%

Square root of sample size = [tex]\sqrt{x}[/tex] = 14.04

Standard deviation/square root of sample size = 8.7/14.04 = 0.6196

Z value at 99% confidence = 2.58

Margin of error = 0.6196 * 2.58

= 1.59857

= 1.6

This question can be determined by the  concept of standard deviation. The margin of 1.6 error will be approximately.

Given:

Random sample of 12th-grade students = 197

Average hours spent on computer per week = 23.5 hours

Therefore,

Total hours spent by 12th grade students  = [tex]\bold{(197 \times23.5=4629.5)hours}[/tex]  

Standard deviation = 8.7 hours (Given)

Confidence Interval =99% (Given)

Square root of  random sample size =  = 14.04

[tex]\bold{\dfrac{Standard\: deviation}{Square\: root\: of\: sample\: size} =\dfrac{8.7}{14.04 } = 0.6196}[/tex]

Therefore,

Z value at 99% confidence = 2.58

Margin of error = [tex]0.6196 \times2.58[/tex]  

                          = 1.59857 error

                          = 1.6 error

Thus, the correct option is (c) 1.6 error.

A brand of popcorn instructs users to microwave for 90–120 seconds on high. A student wonders what the ideal microwave time for popcorn might be and designs an experiment to find out. Bags of popcorn are placed in the microwave for different lengths of time: 90 seconds, 100 seconds, 110 seconds, and 120 seconds. Also, 2 types of microwaves with different power capacity will be used: 900 watts and 1,000 watts. At the end of the experiment, the number of unpopped kernels will be counted.

Using 3 lengths of time and 2 types of microwaves describes which part of the experiment?
