Let x = the number.
"increased by" tells you we are adding.
"twice a number" tells you 2 times a number.
16 + 2x = - 24
Subtract 16 from both sides so that we have the variable on one sides and the constants on the other.
2x = - 24 - 16
2x = - 40
Divide by 2 to isolate the variable.
x = - 40/2 = - 20
Your solution is - 20.
To check your answer, plug in.
16 + 2(-20) = - 24
16 - 40 = - 24
- 24 = - 24
<h2>
Answer with explanation:</h2>
The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-
(1)
, where
= sample mean
z* = critical value.
SE = standard error
and
,
= population standard deviation.
n= sample size.
As per given , we have


n= 15
It is known that ring diameter is normally distributed.
By z-table ,
The critical value for 95% confidence = z*= 1.96
A 99% two-sided confidence interval on the true mean piston diameter :
(using (1))

[Rounded to three decimal places]
∴ A 99% two-sided confidence interval on the true mean piston diameter = (74.020, 74.022)
By z-table ,
The critical value for 95% confidence = z*= 1.96
A 95% lower confidence bound on the true mean piston diameter:
(using (1))
[Rounded to three decimal places]
∴ A 95% lower confidence bound on the true mean piston diameter= 74.020
