The average annual cost (including tuition, room, board, books and fees) to attend a public college takes nearly a third of the annual income of a typical family with college-age children (Money, April 2012). At private colleges, the average annual cost is equal to about 60% of the typical family's income. The following random samples show the annual cost of attending private and public colleges. Data are in thousands of dollars. Private Colleges
52.8 30.6 43.2 45.8 33.3
33.3 50.5 44.0 42.0 37.8

Public Colleges
20.3 22.8 28.2 18.5 15.6 25.6
24.1 14.4 28.5 21.8 22.0 25.8

Required:
a. Compute the sample mean and sample standard deviation for private and public colleges.
b. What is the point estimate of the difference between the two population means?
c. Develop a 95% confidence interval of the difference between the annual cost of attending private and pubic colleges.

(c)

to

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

And the accompanying data for private (1) and public (2) colleges

Solving (a): The sample mean and sample standard deviations

Private College

Calculating sample mean

This is calculated as:

Calculating sample standard deviation

This is calculated as:

-- approximated

Public College

Calculating sample mean

Calculating sample standard deviation

-- approximated

Solving (b): Point estimate of the difference between the two population means

This is calculated as:

Solving (c): 95% confidence interval

First, calculate the degrees of freedom:

Calculate the critical value (t)

At 95% confidence interval and df = 14;

The confidence interval is then calculated as:

Split

to

This implies that:

Private colleges have population mean annual cost of $16.33 to $21.73 more expensive than public colleges

step-by-step explanation:

answer: i'm not going to give you the answer, but some hints to work it out.

step-by-step explanation: so, if there is a straight line that means that the line angle is 180°. so we subtract the 2 angle measures provided, (15 and 38) from 180. so the answer is 180 - (38 + 15). (you have to solve the equation)
