Answer:

(There's a confusion here, is x 2 x times 2? The answer and explanation are based on x multiply by 2)

y = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitution Method-

y = x 2 - 4

x = -2

y = (-2) 2 - 4

PEMDAS - parentheses; exponents; Multiplication & Division; Addition & Subtraction

we are going to multipl -2 and 2 together ---> -4

y = -4 - 4

Same sign add, different sign subtract.

Same sign keep the sign, different sign keep the larger.

y = -8

Hope this helps!

Thank you,

Have a great day!

There is an average of 22.455 employees at 22 office furniture dealers in a major metropolitan area, with a standard deviation o

Answer:

The 99 percent confidence interval for the true mean number of full-time employees at office furniture dealers is (12.288, 32.622).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1-0.99}{2} = 0.005$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1-\alpha$ .

So it is z with a pvalue of $1-0.005 = 0.995$ , so $z = 2.575$

Now, find M as such

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

$M = 2.575*\frac{18.52}{\sqrt{22}} = 10.167$

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So it is 22.455 - 10.167 = 12.288

The upper end of the interval is the mean added to M. So it is 22.455 + 10.167 = 32.622

The 99 percent confidence interval for the true mean number of full-time employees at office furniture dealers is (12.288, 32.622).
