A supervisor records the repair cost for 23 randomly selected stereos. A sample mean of $91.82 and standard deviation of $16.84

are subsequently computed. Determine the 98% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the stereos. Assume the population is approximately normal.
Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answer: 2.508

Step-by-step explanation:

As per give , we have

Sample size : n= 23

Degree of freedom : df= n-1=22

significance level : \alpha: 1-0.98=0.02

Since , the sample size is small (n<30) and population standard deviation is unknown.

So , we use t-test.

For confidence interval , we find two-tailed test value.

Critical t-value : t_{\alpha/2, df}=t_{0.01,22}

=2.508  [using students's t-critical value table]

Hence, the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval = 2.508

A
This is one of those questions that is hard to explain, because I don't know what you know. I'll start with the most obvious reason I know. At x = -1 the top and bottom of the function is 0/0. zero/zero can give indeterminate results and you must look for other ways of explaining what is going on. Here's another thought which is less reliable.

The fraction factors.
(x + 1)*(x - 1)
============
    (x + 1)
The two common factors cancel and you are left with f(x) = x - 1

If you have a graphing calculation you can put this in as y = x - 1 and you see that it is a straight line.

Question B is much nicer
when you put x = 1 into the fraction, you get 0 /2 which gives you 0. That's much easier to handle because the answer is 0.
you are still graphing y = x - 1, but this time the graph is much more well behaved.

If the end behavior is increasing on the left and decreasing on the right, which statement must be true about the function?
tatiyna

Answer:

The degree is even and the leading coefficient is negative.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the end behavior of the function is decreasing on the right, this means that x approaches positive infinity as y approaches negative infinity, which tells us that our leading coefficient is negative. Additionally, since our function is increasing on the left, then our function is even, which is symmetric to the origin.
