Answer:

C. (36337.32, 48968.68)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.025 = 0.975, so z = 1.96

Now, find M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.96*\frac{9114}{\sqrt{8}} = 6315.68

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 42653 - 6315.68 = 36337.32.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 42653 + 6315.68 = 48968.68.

So the correct answer is:

C. (36337.32, 48968.68)

4x - (-6) what’s the answer
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

4x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

If i remember correctly, two minuses make a positive, so -(-6) would turn into +6. I dont think that you can add a number with a variable to a regualar number so the answer is as simplified as it can get. If that one is wrong, try 10x. Hope this helps!

The inequality describes the range of monthly average temperatures T in degrees Fahrenheit at a certain location. Find an equiva
kolezko [41]

Answer:

Now if the high and low monthly average temperatures satisfy the inequality, then the , monthly averages are always within 22 degrees of 43°F.

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality describes the range of monthly average temperatures T in degrees Fahrenheit at a certain location.

The inequality expression is given as:

|T-43|\leq 22

now this expression could also be expressed as:

-22\leq T-43\leq22\\\\-22+43 \leq T \leq 22+43\\\\21\leq T\leq 65

Now if the high and low monthly average temperatures satisfy the inequality, then the , monthly averages are always within 22 degrees of 43°F.

( As the difference is 22 degrees to the left and right)
