A city planner wants to estimate the average monthly residential water usage in the city. He selected a random sample of 100 hou

seholds from the city, which gave a mean water usage of 4500 gallons over a 1-month period. Based on earlier data, the population standard deviation of the monthly residential water usage in this city is 600 gallons. Make a 90% confidence interval for the average monthly residential water usage for all households in this city

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the average monthly residential water usage for all households in this city is between 4401.3 gallons and 4598.7 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.9}{2} = 0.05

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha.

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.05 = 0.95, so z = 1.645

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 1.645*\frac{600}{\sqrt{100}} = 98.7

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 4500 - 98.7 = 4401.3 gallons

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 4500 + 98.7 = 4598.7 gallons

The 90% confidence interval for the average monthly residential water usage for all households in this city is between 4401.3 gallons and 4598.7 gallons.

Which statement is true about function f, which is shown in the graph? The graph shows a cubic function. The curve is drawn usin
777dan777 [17]

We conclude that f(x) is odd, so the correct option is A.

<h3>Which statement is true?</h3>

f(x) is an odd function if:

f(-x) = -f(x).

f(x) is an even function if:

f(x) = f(-x).

In this case, we know that the function f(x) has the points:

{ (-2, 8), (-1, -3.5), (0, 0), (1, 3.5), (2, -8)}

As you can see:

f(-2) = 8

f(2) = -8

Then:

f(-2) = -f(2)

Also:

f(-1) = -3.5

f(1) = 3.5

Then:

f(-1) = -f(1).

So we conclude that this is an odd function, and the correct option is A.
