Why will the value of y for the function y equals 5x + 1 always be greater than that of y equals 4x + 1 with X greater than 1?

4 0

You mean
the linear equations, 5x-y+1=0,4x-y+1=0
the slopes are 5 and 4 respectively.
it is clear that slope of first equation is greater that is it has a steeper graph therefore it Will always be greater than the other for x > 1
the same can be done by calculus; differentiation.

note y=5x+1 is always greater than y=4x+1 for all x>1

Because 5 times any number > 1 will always be greater then 4 times any number > 1.

Explain the difference between an interval estimator and a point estimator for mu. Choose the correct answer below. A. A single

inna [77]

Answer: D. A single number calculated from the sample that estimates a target population parameter is called a point estimator.

An interval estimator is a range of numbers that contain the target parameter with a high degree of confidence.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we evaluate an range of values for an unknown population parameter, then it is known as interval estimation .

A single number evaluated from the SAMPLE that estimates an unknown population parameter is known as a point estimator.

The general difference between point and interval estimator is the point estimator is a single value of target parameter while interval estimator is a range of numbers to estimate the values about the unknown population.
