A manufacturer of cheese filled ravioli supplies a pizza restaurant chain. Based on data collected from its automatic filling process, the amount of cheese inserted into the ravioli is normally distributed. To make sure that the automatic filling process is on target, quality control inspectors take a sample of 25 ravioli. The correct value of t* to construct a 98% confidence interval for the true mean amount of cheese filling is ________. Group of answer choices 2.797 2.492 2.064 3.467 3.745

Answer:

The correct value is t* = 2.492.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 25 - 1 = 24

98% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 24 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.99[/tex]. So we have T = 2.492, which is the answer to this question.
