Answer:

( f - g ) ( x ) = x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to find $( f - g ) ( x )$ given that $f ( x ) = 3 x - 2$ and $g ( x ) = 2 x + 1$ .

So basically we have to subtract the function g from function f.

$( f - g ) ( x ) = f(x) - g(x)$

Substituting the given functions in the above equation to get:

$( f - g ) ( x ) = (3x - 2) - (2 x + 1 )$

$( f - g ) ( x ) = 3x - 2 - 2 x - 1$

$( f - g ) ( x ) = 3x - 2 x - 2 - 1$

$( f - g ) ( x ) = x - 3$

Answer:

(f-g)(x) = x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) = 3x-2

and

g(x) = 2x+1

We have to find (f-g)(x)

So,

(f-g)(x) = f(x)-g(x)

= 3x-2 - (2x+1)

= 3x-2-2x-1

=x-3

Hence,

(f-g)(x) = x-3

Answer:

For this sample, the estimated standard error is of 0.0277

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean $\mu = p$ and standard deviation $s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$
