Refer back to the pizza-delivery
Try It exercise. The population standard deviation is six minutes and the sample mean deliver time is 36 minutes. Use a sample size of 20. Find a 95% confidence interval estimate for the true mean pizza delivery time.
Suppose we change the original problem in
[link] to see what happens to the error bound if the sample size is changed.
Leave everything the same except the sample size. Use the original 90% confidence level. What happens to the error bound and the confidence interval if we increase the sample size and use
n = 100 instead of
n = 36? What happens if we decrease the sample size to
n = 25 instead of
n = 36?
= 68
EBM =
σ = 3; The confidence level is 90% (
CL =0.90);
=
z0.05 = 1.645.
Solution b
If we
decrease the sample size
n to 25, we
increase the error bound.

Try It exercise. The mean delivery time is 36 minutes and the population standard deviation is six minutes. Assume the sample size is changed to 50 restaurants with the same sample mean. Find a 90% confidence interval estimate for the population mean delivery time.
Working backwards to find the error bound or sample mean
When we calculate a confidence interval, we find the sample mean, calculate the error bound, and use them to calculate the confidence interval. However, sometimes when we read statistical studies, the study may state the confidence interval only. If we know the confidence interval, we can work backwards to find both the error bound and the sample mean.
Finding the Error Bound
From the upper value for the interval, subtract the sample mean,
OR, from the upper value for the interval, subtract the lower value. Then divide the difference by two.
Finding the Sample Mean
Subtract the error bound from the upper value of the confidence interval,
OR, average the upper and lower endpoints of the confidence interval.
Notice that there are two methods to perform each calculation. You can choose the method that is easier to use with the information you know.
Suppose we know that a confidence interval is
(67.18, 68.82) and we want to find the error bound. We may know that the sample mean is 68, or perhaps our source only gave the confidence interval and did not tell us the value of the sample mean.
Calculate the error bound:
If we know that the sample mean is 68:
EBM = 68.82 – 68 = 0.82.
In economics, a perfect market refers to a theoretical construct where all participants have perfect information, goods are homogenous, there are no barriers to entry or exit, and prices are determined solely by supply and demand. It's an idealized model used for analysis,

Quantity demanded refers to the specific amount of a good or service that consumers are willing and able to purchase at a give price and within a specific time period. Demand, on the other hand, is a broader concept that encompasses the entire relationship between price and quantity demanded

how do you save a country economic situation when it's falling apart
Economic growth as an increase in the production and consumption of goods and services within an economy.but
Economic development as a broader concept that encompasses not only economic growth but also social & human well being.

What do you think is more important to focus on when considering inequality ?
sir...I just want to ask one question... Define the term contract curve? if you are free please help me to find this answer 🙏
Asui
it is a curve that we get after connecting the pareto optimal combinations of two consumers after their mutually beneficial trade offs

thank you so much 👍 sir

In economics, the contract curve refers to the set of points in an Edgeworth box diagram where both parties involved in a trade cannot be made better off without making one of them worse off. It represents the Pareto efficient allocations of goods between two individuals or entities, where neither p
