Hello!
For me, the first step to any statistics exercise is to determine what is the variable of interest and it's distribution.
In this example the variable is:
X: height of a college student. (cm)
There is no information about the variable distribution. To estimate the population mean you need a variable with at least a normal distribution since the mean is a parameter of it.
The option you have is to apply the Central Limit Theorem.
The central limit theorem states that if you have a population with probability function f(X;μ,δ²) from which a random sample of size n is selected. Then the distribution of the sample mean tends to the normal distribution with mean μ and variance δ²/n when the sample size tends to infinity.
As a rule, a sample of size greater than or equal to 30 is considered sufficient to apply the theorem and use the approximation.
The sample size in this exercise is n=50 so we can apply the theorem and approximate the distribution of the sample mean to normal:
X[bar]~~N(μ;σ2/n)
Thanks to this approximation you can use an approximation of the standard normal to calculate the confidence interval:
98% CI
1 - α: 0.98
⇒α: 0.02
α/2: 0.01
X[bar] ±
174.5 ±
[172.22; 176.78]
With a confidence level of 98%, you'd expect that the true average height of college students will be contained in the interval [172.22; 176.78].
I hope it helps!

Answer:
Multiply the first two binomials: (x+2) & (x+4) using the FOIL method (First, Outer, Inner & Last).
(x+2)(x+4) = x^² + 4x + 2x + 8 = x^² + 6x + 8
Then we multiply the trinomial that we got from the first stage and multiply that by the remaining binomial:
(x^² + 6x + 8) (x + 4)
= x^³ + 4x^² + 6x^² + 24x + 8x + 32
Collect the like terms together to give you:
x^³ + 10x^² + 32x + 32
