In a survey conducted by the Gallup Organization, 1100 adult Americans were asked how many hours they worked in the previous week. Based on the results, a 95% confidence interval for the mean number of hours worked had a lower bound of 42.7 and an upper bound of 44.5. Provide two recommendations for decreasing the margin of error of the interval.

1) Increase the sample size

2) Decrease the confidence level

Step-by-step explanation:

The 95% confidence interval built for a sample size of 1100 adult Americans on how much they worked in previous week is:

42.7 to 44.5

We have to provide 2 recommendations on how to decrease the margin of Error. Margin of error is calculated as:

Here,

is the critical z-value which depends on the confidence level. Higher the confidence level, higher will be the value of critical z and vice versa.

is the population standard deviation, which will be a constant term and n is the sample size. Since n is in the denominator, increasing the value of n will decrease the value of Margin of Error.

Therefore, the 2 recommendations to decrease the Margin of error for the given case are:

arithmetic sequence

step-by-step explanation:

given that a sequence has terms as

19, 15, 11,

this is represented on a graph

the pattern indicates that the sequence is an arithmetic sequence with i term

a=19 and common difference d =-4

any general term

thus the sequence is reduced by 4 for each successive term starting from 1 and nth term is

24-5n.

first negative term would start after 5th term

5th term =24-25< 0

from 5th term onwards the sequence would be negative.
