(x+2)(x+8) = x^2 +10x +16

(x^2 + 10x + 16)(x-1) = x^3+9x^2+6x-16, so the other dimension is x-1

The given box has the following properties

The length is x+2

The height is x+8

The volume is x^3+9x^2+6x-16

As expression for volume can be setup as below , suppose width is w

x^3+9x^2+6x-16=(x+8)(x+2)w\\ \text{Make factors on the left side we get}\\ \\ x^3+8x^2+x^2+8x-2x-16=(x+8)(x+2)w\\ \\ x^2(x+8)+x(x+8)-2(x+8)=(x+8)(x+2)w\\ \\ (x+8)(x^2+x-2)=(x+8)(x+2)w\\ \\ (x+8)(x^2+2x-x-2)=(x+8)(x+2)w\\ \\ (x+8)(x(x+2)-1(x+2))=(x+8)(x+2)w\\ \\ (x+8)(x+2)(x-1)=(x+8)(x+2)w\\

Hence width w=(x-1)

Use the given values of n and p to find the minimum usual value μ−2σ and the maximum usual value μ+2σ. Round to the nearest hund
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

μ−2σ = 1,089.26

μ+2σ = 1,097.62

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard deviation of a sample of size 'n' and proportion 'p' is:

\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n} }

If n=1139 and p =0.96, the standard deviation is:

\sigma=\sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{n}}\\\sigma = 0.001836

The minimum and maximum usual values are:

\mu-2\sigma = (p-2\sigma)*n\\\mu+2\sigma = (p+2\sigma)*n

\mu-2\sigma = (0.96-2*0.001836)*1139\\\mu-2\sigma = 1,089.26\\\mu+2\sigma = (0.96+2*0.001836)*1139\\\mu+2\sigma = 1,097.62
