A sanitation department is interested in estimating the mean amount of garbage per bin for all bins in the city. Assume the amou

nt of garbage per bin is normally distributed. In a random sample of 40 bins, the sample mean amount is 52.8 pounds and the population standard deviation is 3.9 pounds. Construct 95% and 99% confidence intervals for the mean amount of garbage per bin for all bins in the city. Don't use 68/95/99.7 rule; instead use R to compute the quantities such as quantiles.

Answer: a) 51.592 b) 54.008 c) 51.213 d) 54.387

Step-by-step explanation:

a) lower limit of 95% interval

Lower limit = 52.8 - (1.96) (3.9/sqrt 40) = 51.592

b) upper limit of 95% interval

upper limit = 52.8 + (1.96) (3.9/sqrt 40) = 54.008

c) lower limit of 99% interval

Lower limit = 52.8 - (2.576) ( 3.9 / sqrt 40)= 51.213

d) upper limit of 99% interval

Upper limit = 52.8 + (2.576) ( 3.9 / sqrt 40) = 54.387

2. Write a quadratic function that has -intercepts (- 3, 0) and (4, 0) and passes through the point (5, 8)
Reptile [31]

Answer:

f(x)=x^2-x-12

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Quadratic Function</u>

Standard Form of Quadratic Function

The standard representation of a quadratic function is:

f(x)=ax^2+bx+c

where a,b, and c are constants.

When the zeros of f (x1 and x2) are given, it can be written as:

f(x)=a(x-x1)(x-x2)

Where a is a constant called the leading coefficient.

We are given the two roots of f: x1=-3 and x2=4, thus:

f(x)=a(x+3)(x-4)

We also know that f(5)=8, thus:

f(5)=a(5+3)(5-4)=8

Operating:

a(8)(1)=8

Solving:

a=1

The function is:

f(x)=1(x+3)(x-4)

Operating:

\boxed{f(x)=x^2-x-12}
