This question is incomplete. I got the complete part (the boldened part) of it from google as:
The following 98% confidence interval was obtained for μ1 - μ2, the difference between the mean drying time for paint cans of type A and the mean drying time for paint cans of type B:
4.90 hrs < μ1 - μ2 < 17.50 hrs.
Answer:
A paint manufacturer made a modification to a paint to speed up its drying time. Independent simple random samples of 11 cans of type A (the original paint) and 9 cans of type B (the modified paint) were selected and applied to similar surfaces. The drying times, in hours, were recorded. The summary statistics are as follows. Type A Type B x 1x1equals=76.3 hr x 2x2equals=65.1 hr s 1s1equals=4.5 hr s 2s2equals=5.1 hr n 1n1equals=11 n 2n2equals=9 The following 98% confidence interval was obtained for mu 1μ1minus−mu 2μ2, the difference between the mean drying time for paint cans of type A and the mean drying time for paint cans of type B. What does the confidence interval suggest about the population means?
The mean difference for the 98% confidence interval, the drying times of the two types of paints are (4.90, 17.50). This implies that Type A paint takes between 4.90 and 17.50 hours more to dry than type B paint.
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean difference for the 98% confidence interval, the drying times of the two types of paints are (4.90, 17.50). This implies that Type A paint takes between 4.90 and 17.50 hours more to dry than type B paint.
Only positive values comprise the confidence interval which suggests that the mean drying time for paint type A is greater than the mean drying time for paint type B. The modification appears to be effective in reducing drying times.
Answer:
y = -3/8(x + 2)^2 + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
vertex form is
y = a(x - b)^2 + c where a is a constant and (b,c) is the vertex.
The maximum is at (-2, 8) because x 8 = height and x =-2 is equn. of symmetry
So here we have
y = a(x - (-2))^2 + 8
y = a(x + 2)^2 + 8
Now at the point (-6, 2):
2 = a(-6+2)^2 + 8
2 = 16a + 8
16a = -6
1 = -3/8.
So our equation is y = 3/8(x + 2)^2 + 8
Thirty six divided by four is equal to nine
