(4x+1)-(x^2-5)=
4x+1-x^2+5=
-x^2+4x+6

Hope i am not wrong
f(x)=4x+1
g(x)=x^2-5

(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)
(f-g)(x) =4x+1-x^2+5

-(x^2-6-4x)
solve it for x

Answer:

$n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.025}{1.28})^2}=655.36$

And rounded up we have that n=656

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 80% of confidence, our significance level would be given by $\alpha=1-0.80=0.20$ and $\alpha/2 =0.10$ . And the critical value would be given by:

$z_{\alpha/2}=\pm 1.28$

Solution to the problem

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:

$ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}$ (a)

Since we don't have prior info for the proportion of interest we can use $\hat p=0.5$ as estimator. And on this case we have that $ME =\pm 0.025$ and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

$n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}$ (b)

And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

$n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.025}{1.28})^2}=655.36$

And rounded up we have that n=656

Answer:boys: median=50, mean=46

Girls: median= 33, mean=34

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean is the average. Median is the middle number. Both groups had 10 scores. Boys ranged from 15-81. Girls from 0-75; their mean & median would be less because their scores are less.
