How much TV do college students watch? A survey of 361 students recorded the number of hours of television they watched per week

. The sample mean was 6.504 hours with a standard deviation of 5.584. The standard error of the mean was 0.294. Find a 90% confidence interval for the population mean. Round your answer to three decimal places

Answer: 90% confidence interval would be (6.022,6.986).

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of students = 361

Sample mean = 6.504

Sample standard deviation = 5.584

Standard error of the mean = 0.294

At 90% confidence level,

So, α = 0.01

So, z = 1.64

Margin of error is given by

z\times \text{Standard error}\\\\=1.64\times 0.294\\\\=0.48216

So, Lower limit would be

\bar{x}-0.482\\\\=6.504-0.482\\\\=6.022

Upper limit would be

\bar{x}+0.482\\\\=6.504+0.482\\\\=6.986

So, 90% confidence interval would be (6.022,6.986).

. Find the inverse of the function below on the given interval and write it in the form yequalsf Superscript negative 1 Baseline
Elena L [17]

Answer:

The inverse of the function is f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x-5}{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The function provided is:

f (x)=3x+5

Let f(x)=y.

Then the value of <em>x</em> is:

y=3x+5\\\\3x=y-5\\\\x=\frac{y-5}{3}

For the inverse of the function, x\rightarrow y.

⇒ f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x-5}{3}

Compute the value of f[f^{-1}(x)] as follows:

f[f^{-1}(x)]=f[\frac{x-5}{3}]

               =3[\frac{x-5}{3}]+5\\\\=x-5+5\\\\=x

Hence proved that f[f^{-1}(x)]=x.

Compute the value of f^{-1}[f(x)] as follows:

f^{-1}[f(x)]=f^{-1}[3x+5]

               =\frac{(3x+5)-5}{3}\\\\=\frac{3x+5-5}{3}\\\\=x

Hence proved that f^{-1}[f(x)]=x.

Four brother each bought two hotdogs and a bag of chips at the football
jeyben [28]

Answer:

A-$1.65

Step-by-step explanation:

You multiply 1.25 by 4 because each brother bought a bag of chips. Then you subtract that by the total and get $13.20 you divide that by 8 hot dog because each brother got 2 hot dogs. By dividing 8 by the  left over amount from subtracting the chips you get how much each hot dog is worth.

Find the sum of the geometric series 40 + 40(1.005) + 40(1.005)^2 + ⋯ + 40(1.005)^11.
KiRa [710]

Answer:

The sum is 493.4

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the value of the sum, you have to apply the geometric series formula, which is:

\sum_{i=1}^{n} ar^{i-1} = \frac{a(1-r^{n})}{1-r}

where i is the starting point, n is the number of terms, a is the first term and r is the common ratio.

The finite geometric series converges to the expression in the right side of the equation. Therefore, you don't need to calculate all the terms. You can use the expression directly.

In this case:

a=40

b= 1.005

n=12 (because the first term is 40 and the last term is 40(1.005)^11 )

Replacing in the formula:

\frac{a(1-r^{n})}{1-r} = \frac{40(1-1.005^{12})}{1-1.005}

Solving it:

The sum is 493.4

Last year a banquet hall charged $65 per person to attend a function. The function C(p) = 65p represents the total cost, C, to r
zlopas [31]

Answer:

Domain = [0, 50]

Range   = [0, 3250]

Step-by-step explanation:

A function shows the relationship between two variables (independent variable and dependent variable). The independent variable is a variable not dependent on any variable, it is the input of the function while the dependent variable is a variable dependent on other variable, it is the output of the function.

The domain of a function is the set of all input variables (independent variable) and the range of a function is the set of all output variables (dependent variables).

In the function C(p) = 65p, p is the independent variable and C(p) is the dependent variable.

Since the hall can hold a total of 50 people, the domain of the function = [0, 50]

C(0) = 65(0) = 0, C(50) = 65(50) = 3250

Hence, the range of the function = [0, 3250]
