Using the t-distribution, it is found that:
a. The <u>margin of error</u> is of 4.7 homes.
b. The 98% confidence interval for the population mean is (19.3, 28.7).
The information given in the text is:
- Sample mean of
. - Sample standard deviation of
. - Sample size of
.
We are given the <u>standard deviation for the sample</u>, which is why the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
The confidence interval is:

The margin of error is:

Item a:
The critical value, using a t-distribution calculator, for a two-tailed <u>98% confidence interval</u>, with 23 - 1 = <u>22 df</u>, is t = 2.508.
Then, the <em>margin of error</em> is:

Item b:
The interval is:


The 98% confidence interval for the population mean is (19.3, 28.7).

Answer:
max{x²-4x²+5} = 5 at x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Find the critical numbers by finding the first derivative of f(x), set it to 0 and solve for x.

We get:

So the critical number is x = 0.
2. Evaluate the first derivative by plugging in the critical number and see if the derivative is positive or negative on both sides:
is positive when the x < 0 (for example: -6*(-1)=+)
is negative when the x > 0 (for example: -6*(1)=-)
Therefore, you have a local maximum.
Now just get the Y value by plugging in the critical number in the original function. 
local maximum is (0,5)

Answer:
Chocolate Chips cost $2.25 and Walnuts cost $3.25 per pound each
Step-by-step explanatChocion:
Let x = cost of pounds of chocolate chip cookies and y = cost of pounds of walnuts.
From the question, we get 5x+3y = 21 and 2x+6y = 24. To solve the equation, we use substitution. From the first equation, we get y = (21-5x)/3. We substitute the y into the second equation to get 2x + 6(21-5x)/3 = 24. This turns out to be 2x+(42-10x) = 24. Adding like terms you should get 42-8x = 24. Solving for x, x = $2.25 per pound. Plugging this into the first equation, we get 5(2.25)+3y = 21. Solving for y, we get $3.25 per pound of walnuts. If we plug in the numbers into the 2 equations, we will get the right total.
