X+2y=8
2y=8-x |:2
$y=-\frac{1}{2}x+4$
y=ax+b ==> $y=-\frac{1}{2}x+4$
We calculate the zeros of functions (0,b)
(0,b) = (0,4)
We have solution:
x=0, y=4

If we put x = 0, we get
0 + 2y = 8
=> y = 8 / 2 = 4

if we put y = 0
x + 2 ( 0 ) = 8
=> x = 8

It means that solution set is { (0,4) , ( 8,0 ) }

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 $t_{\alpha/2}=1.96$
