Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the data is as shown, restaurant X has a mean service time of 180.56, with a standard deviation of 62.6.
The standard error is SE = s/√n = 62.6/√50 = 8.85.
At 95% confidence, the critical value is z = 1.960.
Therefore, the confidence interval is:
180.56 ± 1.960 × 8.85
180.56 ± 17.35
(163, 198)
Restaurant Y has a mean service time of 152.96, with a standard deviation of 49.2.
The standard error is SE = s/√n = 49.2/√50 = 6.96.
At 95% confidence, the critical value is z = 1.960.
Therefore, the confidence interval is:
152.96 ± 1.960 × 6.96
152.96 ± 13.64

The parent function is ...
... f(x) = |x|
This is the absolute value function, equal x when x ≥ 0, and equal to -x when x < 0. Its graph has the shape of a V with the vertex at the origin and "legs" of slope ±1.
The function g(x) is the same function with 2 added. The addition of 2 moves every value of f(x) up 2 units, so translates the whole graph upward by 2 units.
