Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the mean is between 0.985g/cm² and 1.047 g/cm².

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{0.155}{\sqrt{94}} = 0.0310

The lower end of the interval is the mean subtracted by M. So it is 1.016 - 0.0310 = 0.985 g/cm²

The upper end of the interval is the mean added to M. So it is 1.016 + 0.0310 = 1.047 g/cm²

The 95% confidence interval for the mean is between 0.985g/cm² and 1.047 g/cm².

Find the inverse of f(x)= -x + 3
inna [77]
Let g the inverse function of f.

The most important property of g and f being inverses of each other, is that 

g(f(x))=x,      also f(g(x))=x

so, what one function 'does' to x, the other 'undoes' it.



Thus, we have:

f(g(x))=x      and alos   f(g(x))= -g(x)+3, from the rule


thus : 

-g(x)+3=x

-g(x)=x-3

g(x)=-x+3


check: f(g(x))=f(-x+3)=-(-x+3)+3=x-3+3=x


Answer: the inverse of f is g, such that g(x)=-x+3

Given the parent function f(x) = 2^x, which graph shows f(x) + 1?
mixer [17]

Answer: First Option

a) exponential function going through point (0, 2) and ending up on the right

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the attached image, the red line represents a function of the form:

f(x) = 2^x

Note that this function cuts to the axis and at the point (0, 1)

Also when x tends to ∞ f(x) tends to ∞ and when f(x) tends to -∞ then f(x) tends to zero.

If we perform the transformation y = f(x) +1 then the graph of y is equal to the graph of f(x) displaced 1 unit up. Then the new cutting point with the axis y will be: (0, 2) as shown in the attached image (blue line)

The transform function is y =2^x +1

Finally the answer is the first option
