Where is the equation bro
Let the first brother = x
second brother = x + 2
third brother = x + 4
<span>The product of the first and third boys' ages is 20 more than twice the second boy's age:
x(x+4) = 2(x+2) + 20
x</span>² + 4x = 2x + 4 + 20
x² + 4x - 2x - 24 = 0
x² + 2x - 24 = 0
(x - 4)(x + 6) = 0
x = 4 or -6 (rejected, age cannot be negative)
First brother = 4
Second brother = 4 + 2 = 6
Third brother = 4 + 4 = 8
The three boys are 4, 6, and 8 years old.
Using it's concept, it is found that the average rate of change of the function from x = -1 to x = 5 is of -1.
<h3>What is the average rate of change of a function?</h3>
It is given by the <u>change in the output divided by the change in the input</u>.
In this problem, the output changes by -6(from 7 to 1) when the input changes by 6(from -1 to 5), hence the average rate is given by:
r = -6/6 = -1.

Answer:
The 95% confidence interval for the population mean weight of newborn elephants is between 242.12 pounds and 245.88 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that to find our 
level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 
.
So it is z with a pvalue of 
, so 
Now, find M as such
In which 
is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 244 - 1.88 = 242.12 pounds.
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 244 + 1.88 = 245.88 pounds
The 95% confidence interval for the population mean weight of newborn elephants is between 242.12 pounds and 245.88 pounds.
