A sample of 17 patients in a hospital had these hemoglobin readings 112 120 98 55 71 35 99 142 64 150 150 55 100 132 20 70 93 find a 95% confidence interval for the hemoglobin reading for all the patienta in the hospital

The 95% confidence interval for the hemoglobin reading for all the patients in the hospital is (72, 112).

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - α)% confidence interval for the population mean, when the population standard deviation is not provided is:

The data provided is:

S = {112, 120, 98, 55, 71, 35, 99, 142, 64, 150, 150, 55, 100, 132, 20, 70, 93}

Compute the sample mean and sample standard deviation as follows:

The critical value of t for 95% confidence level and n - 1 = 16 degrees of freedom is:

*Use a t-table.

Compute the 95% confidence interval for the hemoglobin reading for all the patients in the hospital as follows:

Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the hemoglobin reading for all the patients in the hospital is (72, 112).

there are lots of ways.   pick's theorem tells us if the vertices are lattice points the area a is

a = b/2 + i - 1

where b is the number of boundary lattice points and i is the number of interior lattice points.

in the figure i count b=16, i=50 so

a = 8 + 50 - 1 = 57

let's try the shoelace formula.   the area is half the sum of the cross products of the sides.  

a(-2,6)   -2(2)-6(-5) = 26

b(-5,2)   -5(-3) - 2(-2) = 19

c(-2,-3) -2(-3) - (-3)(4) = 18

d(4,-3)   4(3) - (-3)(5) = 27

e(5,3)   5(3) - 3(1) = 12

f(1,3)     1(6) - 3(-2) = 12

a(-2,6)

each of the cross products is twice the area of the triangle with the associated side and one vertex the origin. so the area of abo=26/2=13.

area = (1/2) (26 + 19 +   18 + 27 + 12 + 12) = 57

that checks!
