A supervisor records the repair cost for 14 randomly selected refrigerators. A sample mean of $79.20 and standard deviation of $

10.41 are subsequently computed. Determine the 90% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the refrigerators. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 2 : Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answer:

( $74.623, $83.777)

The 90% confidence interval is = ( $74.623, $83.777)

Critical value at 90% confidence = 1.645

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = $79.20

Standard deviation r = $10.41

Number of samples n = 14

Confidence interval = 90%

Using the z table;

The critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval.

z(α=0.05) = 1.645

Critical value at 90% confidence z = 1.645

Substituting the values we have;

$79.20+/-1.645($10.42/√14)

$79.20+/-1.645($2.782189528308)

$79.20+/-$4.576701774067

$79.20+/-$4.577

( $74.623, $83.777)

The 90% confidence interval is = ( $74.623, $83.777)

Explain why f(x) = x2+4/x2-x-2 is not continuous at x = 2.
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer: Option a.

Step-by-step explanation:

 Make the denominator equal to zero and solve for x:

Factor the quadratic equation. Find two number whose sum is -1 and whose product is -2. Then:

x^{2}-x-2=0\\(x-2)(x+1)=0\\x=2\\x=-1

Then, as you can see the value x=2 makes the denominator equal to zero and the division by zero does not exist. Therefore you can conclude that the function shown in the problem is not defined at x=2

The answer is the option a.

Graph a system of equations to solve log (−5.6x + 1.3) = −1 − x. Round to the nearest tenth.
const2013 [10]

From the least to the greatest, the solutions are x ≈ -2.1 and x ≈ 0.2

the answers are -2.1 and 0.2.

<h3>What is a linear equation?</h3>

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

If in the linear equation, one variable is present, then the equation is known as the linear equation in one variable.

The question is incomplete.

The complete question is in the picture, please refer to the attached picture.

We have two systems of the equation:

y = log (−5.6x + 1.3)

y  = −1 − x

After plotting the above equation on the graph we will see two intersections point:

(-2.12, 1.12) and (0.221, -1.221)

So the least value is x = -2.12 ≈ -2.1

The greatest value is x = 0.221 ≈ 0.2

Thus, from the least to the greatest, the solutions are x ≈ -2.1 and x ≈ 0.2

the answers are -2.1 and 0.2.
