Hey!
so for A, you just distribute the 3x
the answer would be 3x^2 - 12x

For B what you want to do is the same thing but dont forget to distribute the negative as well!
Your answer would be -2x^3 - 3x^2

Hope this helps!

also since you are multiplying, here is a tip. When you multiply and you have 2 x's that are going to be multiplied like x times x, you want to add the exponent!

Answer:

$D(t)=50(0.8)^t$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Initially the difference between the cake's and the cooler's temperature ,a=50 degree Celsius

$r=\frac{1}{5}/min$

We have to find the function that gives the temperature difference in degrees Celsius D(t).

We know that

$D(t)=a(1-r)^t$

Substitute the values

$D(t)=50(1-\frac{1}{5})^t=50(1-0.2)^t$

$D(t)=50(0.8)^t$

This is required function that gives the temperature difference in degrees Celsius.

Answer:

1) The mean calculated for this case is $\bar X=61.5$

2) $61.5-5.4=56.1$

3) $61.5+5.4=66.9$

4) B. An interval estimate gives us a sense of the accuracy of the point estimate whereas a point estimate alone does not.

Because with the confidence interval we know the confidence level of the interval, and the limits for the parameter at some significance level.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

Part 1

In order to calculate the mean and the sample deviation we can use the following formulas:

$\bar X= \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{n}$ (a)
