Answer:

114 - 15 = 99

Step-by-step explanation:

A "number" can be used as x since we don't know what it is at first- since it'd be x + 15 = 114 you can just do 114 - 15 to get the answer to x which is 99:)

Location is known to affect the number, of a particular item, sold by an auto parts facility. Two different locations, A and B,

Mama L [17]

We have two samples, A and B, so we need to construct a 2 Samp T Int using this formula:

$\displaystyle \overline {x}_1 - \overline {x}_2 \ \pm \ t^{*} \sqrt{\frac{s_1^2}{n_1} + \frac{s_2^2}{n_2} }$

In order to use t*, we need to check conditions for using a t-distribution first.

Random for both samples -- NOT STATED in the problem ∴ proceed with caution!
Independence for both samples: 130 < all items sold at Location A; 180 < all items sold at Location B -- we can reasonably assume this is true
Normality: CLT is not met; n < 30 for both locations A and B ∴ proceed with caution!

Since 2/3 conditions aren't met, we can still proceed with the problem but keep in mind that the results will not be as accurate until more data is collected or more information is given in the problem.

Solve for t*:

We need the tail area first.

$\displaystyle \frac{1-.9}{2}= .05$

Next we need the degree of freedom.

The degree of freedom can be found by subtracting the degree of freedom for A and B.

The general formula is df = n - 1.

df for A: 13 - 1 = 12
df for B: 18 - 1 = 17
df for A - B: |12 - 17| = 5

Use a calculator or a t-table to find the corresponding t-score for df = 5 and tail area = .05.

t* = -2.015

Now we can use the formula at the very top to construct a confidence interval for two sample means.

$\overline {x}_A=39$
$s_A=8$
$n_A=13$
$\overline {x}_B = 55$
$s_B=2$
$n_B=18$
$t^{*}=-2.015$

Substitute the variables into the formula: $\displaystyle \overline {x}_1 - \overline {x}_2 \ \pm \ t^{*} \sqrt{\frac{s_1^2}{n_1} + \frac{s_2^2}{n_2} }$ .

$39-55 \ \pm \ -2.015 \big{(}\sqrt{\frac{(8)^2}{13} +\frac{(2)^2}{18} } } \ \big{)}$

Simplify this expression.

$-16 \ \pm \ -2.015 (\sqrt{5.1453} \ )$
$-16 \ \pm \ 3.73139$

Adding and subtracting 3.73139 to and from -16 gives us a confidence interval of:

$(-20.5707,-11.4293)$

If we want to interpret the confidence interval of (-20.5707, -11.4293), we can say...

We are 90% confident that the interval from -20.5707 to -11.4293 holds the true mean of items sold at locations A and B.

HELP ASAP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST AND 5 STARS... Write 2^40 as an exponent with a base of:

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

2 to the 40th power is conventionally written as 240, with superscript for the exponent, but the notation using the caret symbol ^ can also be seen frequently: 2^40. 109 9511627776. number or base 103 power, index, or exponent = 10 x 10 x 10 = 1,000. Writing 2 as a factor one million times would be a very time-consuming and tedious task. A better way to approach this is to use exponents. Exponential notation is an easier way to write a number as a product of many factors. Index Notation and Powers of 10. The exponent (or index or power) of a number says. how many times to use the number in a multiplication. 102 means 10 × 10 = 100. (It says 10 is used 2 times in the multiplication)
