The range of this function is y is equal to all real numbers such that y $\geq$ 0.

In order to find the range of y, we must look for the minimum or maximum value. In a quadratic, this number exists at the vertex. To find the vertex, we use the equation -b/2a, where a is equal to the coefficient of x^2 and b is equal to the coefficient of x. Since there is no x, the coefficient is 0.

x value of vertex = -b/2a

x value of vertex = -0/2(1)

x value of vertex = 0

So then we can look for the minimum y value by plugging in the x value into the equation.

y = x^2

y = 0

Therefore the minimum is 0 and there is no maximum.

Answer:

The test statistic is t = 3.36.

Step-by-step explanation:

You're testing the claim that the mean difference is greater than 0.7.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean difference is of 0.7 or less, that is:

$H_0: \mu \leq 0.7$

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if the mean difference is greater than 0.7, that is:

$H_1: \mu > 0.7$

The test statistic is:

$t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
