Answer:

First we need to name some of the variables we are given:n = 38 the sample sizex = 6.88 the sample mean = 1.86 the population standard deviationWe need to find a 90% confidence interval for the mean price per 100 lbs of watermelon: = 1-.90 = .10/2 = .05z(/2) = -1.64-z(/2) = 1.64This can give us a probability expression:P(-1.645 < z < 1.645) = .90The margin of error is calculated with the formula: E = z(/2)(/√n)E = 1.645(1.86/√38) = $.4963(300) = $148.89   Then to calculate the upper and lower limit we add and subtract E from x:lower limit = 6.88 - .4963 = $7.38(300) = $2214upper limit = 6.88 + .4963 = $6.38(300) = $1914Note: We multiply the E, upper and lower limits by 300 because 15 tons is 30000lbs and we need the price per 100 lbs, so we divide 30000/100 and get 300.

What is (m+1)(m+1) multiplied
Zarrin [17]

Apply the "FOIL" method here. (m+1)(m+1) = m^2 + 1m + 1m + 1, or m^2 + 2m + 1.

3f+2g=30 and f+2g=26
tatuchka [14]
3f + 2g = 30 . . .(1)
f + 2g = 26 . . . .(2)

(1) - (2) => 2f = 4 => f = 4/2 = 2

From (2), 2 + 2g = 26 => 2g = 26 - 2 = 24 => g = 24/2 = 12

Therefore, f = 2 and g = 12

Consider the function y = -2-3cos (x+pi). What effect does the -2 have on the basic graph
Elenna [48]

ANSWER

-2 shift the graph of the basic function down by 2 units.

EXPLANATION

The given cosine function is:

y =  - 2 - 3 \cos(x + \pi)

This equation can be rewritten as:

y =  - 3 \cos(x + \pi)  +  - 2

We compare this to

y = a \cos(bx + c)  + d

The effect d has on the graph is that, it shifts the graph up by d units.

If d is negative the graph shifts down by d units.

Since d=-2, the graph will shift down by 2 units.
