The YSORT method of gender​ selection, developed by the Genetics​ & IVF​ Institute, was designed to increase the likelihood that a baby will be a boy. When 120 couples use the YSORT method and give birth to 120 ​babies, the genders of the babies are recorded.

d. 24+-0.114

step-by-step explanation:

the question requires us to calculate the approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean number of ounces of ketchup per bottle in the sample given the following statistics;

sample mean = 24

standard deviation, σ = 0.4

sample size , n = 49

the confidence interval for a population mean is calculated using the formula;

sample mean ± z-score*(σ/sqrt(n))

the z-score associated with a 95% confidence interval, from the standard normal tables, is;

1.96

substituting these values into the formula;

24 ± 1.96*(0.4/7)

= 24 ± 0.112

from the alternatives given, choice d is closest to the above expression;

i believe it's a.

i'm not sure on this one, most likely correct.
