Answer:

x=16/3

Step-by-step explanation:

left part : -1+3x-8

right part: 7

left part = right part

-1+3x-8=7

left part +8= right part +8

-1 + 3x -8 +8=7+8

-1+3x=15

left part : -1+3x

right part : 15

left part+1=right part+1

-1+3x+1=15+1

3x=16

x=16/3

In analyzing the city and highway fuel efficiencies of many cars and trucks, the mean difference in fuel efficiencies for the 60

Olegator [25]

Answer:

$7.38-1.96\frac{2.51}{\sqrt{601}}=7.18$

$7.38+1.96\frac{2.51}{\sqrt{601}}=7.58$

For this case the confidence interval is given by :

$7.18 \leq \mu \leq 7.58$

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided

$\bar X=7.38$ represent the sample mean for the fuel efficiencies

$\mu$ population mean

s=2.51 represent the sample standard deviation

n=601 represent the sample size

Confidence interval

The formula for the confidence interval of the true mean is given by:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

The degrees of freedom for this case is given by:

$df=n-1=601-1=600$

The Confidence level for this case is 0.95 or 95%, and the significance level $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ and the critical value is given by $t_{\alpha/2}=1.96$

Replcing into the formula for the confidence interval is given by:

$7.38-1.96\frac{2.51}{\sqrt{601}}=7.18$

$7.38+1.96\frac{2.51}{\sqrt{601}}=7.58$

For this case the confidence interval is given by :

$7.18 \leq \mu \leq 7.58$

A rock is thrown upward from a bridge that is 57 feet above a road. The rock reaches its maximum height above the road 0.76 seco

bekas [8.4K]

answer:

$f(t) = -9.9788169(t -0.76)^2 +57$

Step-by-step explanation:

On this question we see that we are given two points on a certain graph that has a maximum point at 57 feet and in 0.76 seconds after it is thrown, we know can say this point is a turning point of a graph of the rock that is thrown as we are told that the function f determines the rocks height above the road (in feet) in terms of the number of seconds t since the rock was thrown therefore this turning point coordinate can be written as (0.76, 57) as we are told the height represents y and x is represented by time in seconds. We are further given another point on the graph where the height is now 0 feet on the road then at this point its after 3.15 seconds in which the rock is thrown in therefore this coordinate is (3.15,0).

now we know if a rock is thrown it moves in a shape of a parabola which we see this equation is quadratic. Now we will use the turning point equation for a quadratic equation to get a equation for the height which the format is $f(x)= a(x-p)^2 +q$ , where (p,q) is the turning point. now we substitute the turning point
