Given:

Set A: 1 4 4 4 5 5 5 8

Mean: 4.5

Standard dev: 1.9

 

Set B:

Mean: 4.5

Standard dev: 2.45

 

% =  90 

Set A:

Standard Error, SE = s/ √n =    1.9/√8 = 0.67  

Degrees of freedom = n - 1 =   8 -1 =  7   

t- score =  1.89457861

<span> <span><span> <span>   </span> </span> </span></span>

Width of the confidence interval = t * SE =     1.89457861* 0.67 = 1.272685913

Lower Limit of the confidence interval = x-bar - width =      4.5 - 1.272685913 = 3.23

Upper Limit of the confidence interval = x-bar + width =      4.5 + 1.272685913 = 5.77

The 90% confidence interval is [3.23, 5.77]

 

Set B:

Standard Error, SE = s/ √n =    2.45/√8 = 0.87  

Degrees of freedom = n - 1 =   8 -1 = 7   

t- Score =  1.89457861

<span> <span><span> <span>   </span> </span> </span></span>

Width of the confidence interval = t * SE =     1.89457861* 0.87 = 1.641094994

Lower Limit of the confidence interval = x-bar - width =      4.5 - 1.641094994 = 2.86

Upper Limit of the confidence interval = x-bar + width =      4.5 + 1.641094994 = 6.14

The 90% confidence interval is [2.86, 6.14]

 

<span>We can obviously see that sample B has more variation in the scores than sample A. The fact that the standard deviation is 2.45 for B and 1.9 for A). Therefore, they yield dissimilar confidence intervals even though they have the same mean and range.</span>

The width of a rectangle is 15 ft. shorter than its length. Its perimeter is 262 ft. Let l equal the length of the rectangle.
masha68 [24]
Let the length be l.
For now, let's make the width be w. 
Additionally, l = w + 15. Using this equation, width can also be written as l - 15. 
The perimeter of a rectangle is length + length + width + width. This can also be written as l + l + (l-15) + (l-15) = l + l + l - 15 + l - 15 = 4l - 30.
Using this equation:
4l - 30 = 262
4l = 292
l = 73

4(w + 15) - 30 = 262
4w + 60 - 30 = 262
4w + 30 = 262
4w = 232
w = 58

What is the complete factorization of the polynomial function over the set of complex numbers?
quester [9]

Answer:

f(x)=(x-2)(x+2)(x-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=x³-5x²+4x-20                 1. Just group randomly

f(x)=x²(x-5)+4(x-5)                2. Factor the groupings

f(x)=(x²+4)(x-5)                      

<u>f(x)=(x-2)(x+2)(x-5)</u>                3. Factor the difference of two squares
