Is age is x

2x-200=42 

2x=242

x=121

He is 121 years old. 

Hope this helped!!

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

\bar x = 260.1615

\sigma = 70.69

The confidence interval of standard deviation is: 53.76 to 103.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

n =20

See attachment for the formatted data

Solving (a): The mean

This is calculated as:

\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}

So, we have:

\bar x = \frac{242.87 +212.00 +260.93 +284.08 +194.19 +139.16 +260.76 +436.72 +355.36 +.....+250.61}{20}

\bar x = \frac{5203.23}{20}

\bar x = 260.1615

\bar x = 260.16

Solving (b): The standard deviation

This is calculated as:

\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum(x - \bar x)^2}{n-1}}

\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{(242.87 - 260.1615)^2 +(212.00- 260.1615)^2+(260.93- 260.1615)^2+(284.08- 260.1615)^2+.....+(250.61- 260.1615)^2}{20 - 1}}\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{94938.80}{19}}

\sigma = \sqrt{4996.78}

\sigma = 70.69 --- approximated

Solving (c): 95% confidence interval of standard deviation

We have:

c =0.95

So:

\alpha = 1 -c

\alpha = 1 -0.95

\alpha = 0.05

Calculate the degree of freedom (df)

df = n -1

df = 20 -1

df = 19

Determine the critical value at row df = 19 and columns \frac{\alpha}{2} and 1 -\frac{\alpha}{2}

So, we have:

X^2_{0.025} = 32.852 ---- at \frac{\alpha}{2}

X^2_{0.975} = 8.907 --- at 1 -\frac{\alpha}{2}

So, the confidence interval of the standard deviation is:

\sigma * \sqrt{\frac{n - 1}{X^2_{\alpha/2} } to \sigma * \sqrt{\frac{n - 1}{X^2_{1 -\alpha/2} }

70.69 * \sqrt{\frac{20 - 1}{32.852} to 70.69 * \sqrt{\frac{20 - 1}{8.907}

70.69 * \sqrt{\frac{19}{32.852} to 70.69 * \sqrt{\frac{19}{8.907}

53.76 to 103.25

A candy store called "Sugar" built a giant hollow sugar cube out of wood to hang above the entrance to their store. It took 5454
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

27 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The total surface area of the cube is 54 ft^2.

A cube has 6 congruent square sides.

54 ft^2/5 = 9 ft^2

Each square side has area 9 ft^2.

The area of a square is the square of the side, so the side of a square is the square root of the area.

side = sqrt(9 ft)^2 = 3 ft

The volume of a cube is the cube of the side.

volume = (3 ft)^3

volume = 27 ft^3

Is (a-3)(2a^2 + 3a + 3) equivalent to 2(a^3 - 1.5a^2 - 3a - 4.5)
vovikov84 [41]
<h3>Answer: Yes they are equivalent</h3>

==============================================

Work Shown:

Expand out the first expression to get

(a-3)(2a^2 + 3a + 3)

a(2a^2 + 3a + 3) - 3(2a^2 + 3a + 3)

2a^3 + 3a^2 + 3a - 6a^2 - 9a - 9

2a^3 + (3a^2-6a^2) + (3a-9a) - 9

2a^3 - 3a^2 - 6a - 9

Divide every term by 2 so we can pull out a 2 through the distributive property

2a^3 - 3a^2 - 6a - 9 = 2(a^3 - 1.5a^2 - 3a - 4.5)

This shows that (a-3)(2a^2 + 3a + 3) is equivalent to 2(a^3 - 1.5a^2 - 3a - 4.5)
