You have to FOIL (multiply the first, then outer, then inner, then last)

(x-2)(x+4)

First: multiply x by x to get x².
Outer: multiply x by 4 to get 4x.
Inner: multiply -2 by x to get -2x.
Last: multiply -2 by 4 to get -8.

This gives you:

x² + 4x - 2x - 8

Combine like terms to get your final answer:

x² + 2x - 8

Hope this helped!! xx

Answer:

The calculated value Z = 1.4460 < 1.96 at 0.05 level of significance.

The null hypothesis is accepted

A local power company believes that residents in their area use more electricity on average than EIA's reported average

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given that the mean of the Population = 10,608 kWh of electricity this year.

Given that the size of the sample n = 187

Given that mean of sample x⁻ = 10737 kWh

The Standard deviation of the Population = 1220kWh

Level of significance = 0.05

The critical value (Z₀.₀₅)= 1.96

Step(ii):-

Null Hypothesis: H₀:μ > 10608 kWh

Alternative Hypothesis: H₁: μ < 10608kWh

Test statistic

$Z = \frac{x^{-}-mean }{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } }$

$Z = \frac{10737- 10608 }{\frac{1220}{\sqrt{187} } }$

Z = 1.4460

Final answer:-

The calculated value Z = 1.4460 < 1.96 at 0.05 level of significance.

The null hypothesis is accepted

A local power company believes that residents in their area use more electricity on average than EIA's reported average.
