<span>The geometric shapes are decrease, if the scale factor is negative.

</span><span> The negative scale factor is also a factor in which the area of the different geometric shapes get reduced or the objects gets inverted. The area of the different geometric objects is negative due to the negative scale factor.</span>

The first odd number before 231 which would be on the same side of the hall is 229. The first odd number after would be 233.
On the odd side of the hall, the order would be room 229, room 231, room 233.

The life in hours of a 75-watt light bulb is known to be normally distributed with standard deviation σ = 25 hours. A random sam

Answer: a) (1008.34,1019.658) b) (1009.24,1018.76)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

n = 75

mean = 1014 hours

Standard deviation = 25 hours

At 95% two sided , z = 1.96

So, confidence interval would be

$\bar{x}\pm z\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=1014\pm 1.96\dfrac{25}{\sqrt{75}}\\\\=1014\pm 5.658\\\\=(1014-5.658,1014+5.658)\\\\=(1008.34,1019.658)$

(b) Construct a 95% lower confidence bound on the mean life.

z = 1.65

So, confidence interval would be

$\bar{x}\pm z\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=1014\pm 1.65\times \dfrac{25}{\sqrt{75}}\\\\=1014\pm 4.76\\\\=(1014-4.76,1014+4.76)\\\\=(1009.24,1018.76)$
