Compound percentage reduction can be calculated by multiplying the initial number by (1-x)^t where x is the percentage reduction (/100, i.e. 1% reduction is 0.01), and t is the number of times it has reduced.
So:
a)

Where t is the number of weeks.
We can then just substitute in to work out the final pressure:
b) p = 45*0.94^6 =
31psi
Number 2 is 84.13
number 4 is 56
The next number would be 8+13 = 21
Answer:
98.1°F ≤ x ≤ 99.1°F
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function:
f(x) = |98.6 - x|
Variance = 0.5
98.6°F - x = ± 0.5
Lower bound :
98.6 - 0.5 ≤ x
98.1 ≤ x
Upper bound :
x ≤ 98.6 + 0.5
x ≤ 99.1
Hence,
98.1°F ≤ x ≤ 99.1°F
