Solution

Step 1 :\(\text{For question 10}:\)

Step 2 :\(\text{Step 1: Determine the degrees of freedom: } df = n - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19 \)

Step 3 :\(\text{Step 2: Look up the critical value in the t-table for } df = 19 \text{ and } 98\% \text{ confidence level: } t_{C} = 2.539 \)

Step 4 :\(\text{Answer 10:} 2.539\)

Step 5 :\(\text{For question 11}:\)

Step 6 :\(\text{Step 1: Calculate the standard error: } SE = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{15}{\sqrt{70}} \approx 1.7894 \)

Step 7 :\(\text{Step 2: Calculate the z-score for the sample mean: } z = \frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{SE} = \frac{102 - 100}{1.7894} \approx 1.1174 \)

Step 8 :\(\text{Step 3: Find the probability using the z-table that z-score is greater than 1.1174: } P(z > 1.1174) \approx 0.1319 \)

Step 9 :\(\text{Answer 11:} 0.1319\)
