Answer:

The 99 % confidence interval on the basis of mean is ( 21.7393  ;   22.0257)

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean = Sum of observations / Number of observations

Mean = 21.88 +21.76 +22.14 +21.63+ 21.81 +22.12+ 21.97+ 21.57+ 21.75+ 21.96 +22.20 +21.80/ 12

Mean =x`= 262.59/12=  21.8825

Standard Deviation = s= ∑x²/n - ( ∑x/n)²

∑x²/n= 478.7344 +473.4976 + 490.1796+467.8569+ 475.6761 + 489.2944+ 482.6809+ 465.2649+ 473.0625+ 482.2416 +492.84 + 475.24/ 12

∑x²/n= 5746.5689/12= 478.8807 = 478.881

Standard Deviation = s= ∑x²/n - ( ∑x/n)²

s= 478.881- (21.8825)²= 478.881-478.843= 0.037

The confidence limit 99% for the mean will be determined by

x` ± α(100-1) √s/n

Putting the values in the above equation

= 21.8825 ± 2.58 √0.037/12

Solving the square root

= 21.8825 ± 2.58 (0.05549)

Multiplying the square root with 2.58

=21.8825 ± 0.1432

Adding and subtracting would give

21.7393  ;   22.0257,

Hence the 99 % confidence interval on the basis of mean is ( 21.7393  ;   22.0257)

Find the x-coordinates where f ' (x)=0 for f(x)=2x+sin(4x) in the interval [0, pi]
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The x-coordinate is \dfrac{\pi}{6}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a function f(x) as:

f(x)=2x+\sin (4x)

Now on differentiating both side with respect to x we get that:

f'(x)=2+4 \cos (4x)

When f'(x)=0

this means that 2+4\cos (4x)=0\\\\4\cos (4x)=-2\\\\\cos(4x)=\dfrac{-1}{2}

Hence, cosine function takes the negative value in second and third quadrant but we have to only find the value in the interval [0,\pi].

also we know that \cos (\dfrac{2\pi}{3})=\dfrac{-1}{2}----(1) (which lie in the second quadrant)

so on comparing our equation with equation (1) we obtain:

4x=\dfrac{2\pi}{3}\\\\x=\dfrac{\pi}{6}

Hence, the x-coordinates where f'(x)=0 for f(x)=2x+\sin(4x) is \dfrac{\pi}{6}.

irinina [24]

Answer:

68.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

If the cost of 819.73 for full cover insurance for a female and a male is 1192.64 what is the percentage?

The Percentage is calculated as:

819.73/1192.64 × 100

= 0.68732392004293 × 100

= 68.732392004 %

Approximately = 68.7%

Therefore, the percentage is 68.7%
