calibration curve based onn=10known points was used to measure the protein in an unknown. The results were protein =15.22(±0.46)μ²µ, where the standard uncertainty is ux=0.46μ²µ. Find the90%and 99%confidence intervals for protein in the unknown.

Short Answer

Expert verified

90% confidence intervals for protein in an unknown is 15.2±0.8μ²µ

99% confidence intervals for protein in an unknown is 15±1μ²µ

Step by step solution

01

Confidence Intervals

Confidence interval =x¯±tsn=x¯±tuxsince the standard uncertainty

(ux)=s/n

Here,

x¯is the mean,

s is the standard deviation,

t is the Student's t,

uis the number of measurements, and

uxis the standard uncertainty.

02

90% confidence intervals for protein

The number of measurements of the known point is n=10

The result of the protein is 15.22±0.46μ²µ

The standard uncertainty is ux=0.46μ²µ

The numbers in the subscript denotes the insignificant figures.

Calculation of Confidence intervals:

The t value corresponding to 90% confidence level for eight degrees of freedom is t90%=1.860

The t value corresponding to 99% confidence level for eight degrees of freedom is t99%=3.355

90% confidence interval is calculated as follows:

Confidence interval x¯±tux

90% confidence interval role="math" localid="1663318037622" =15.22±1.860×0.46

=15.22±0.86μ²µ=15.2±0.8μ²µ

03

The 99% confidence intervals for protein

99% confidence interval is calculated as follows:

Confidence interval=x¯±tux

90% confidence interval =15.22±3.355×0.46

=15.22±1.5μ²µ=15±1μ²µ
