Answer:

-11.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Take -10.5 - (-11) = -10.5 +11 = .5

There are 5 spaces between -10.5 and -11, so take

.5 / 5 spaces = .1

Each space is .1

We are going down , so subtract .1 each time we go down

Starting at -11, we go down 3

-11 - .3 = -11.3

In an effort to estimate the mean of amount spent per customer for dinner at a major Lawrence restaurant, data were collected fo

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the population mean is 22.96 to 26.64

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information,

A sample of 49 customers. Assume a population standard deviation of $5. If the sample mean is $24.80,

The confidence interval if 99%.

Thus, 1-α=0.99

α=0.01

Now we need to determine $z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=z_{0.005}$

Now by using z score table we find that $z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}=2.58$

The boundaries of the confidence interval are:

$\mu-z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }\\24.80-2.58\times \frac{5}{\sqrt{49}}=22.96\\\mu+z_{\frac{\alpha}{2}}\times \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }\\24.80+2.58\times \frac{5}{\sqrt{49}}=26.64$

Hence, the 99% confidence interval for the population mean is 22.96 to 26.64

A forest ranger is in a forest 2 miles from a straight road. A car is located c miles down the road. The forest ranger can walk

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

T(x) = (√(4+x^2))/2 +(c -x)/4
(a) x = 1.155 miles
(b) x = 1/2 mile

Step-by-step explanation:

The straight line distance from the starting point to the point x on the road is given by the Pythagorean theorem:

d1 = √(2²+x²)

The time required to walk that distance in the woods (at 2 miles per hour) is ...

time = distance / speed

t1 = √(4+x²)/2

The remaining distance along the road to the car is ...

d2 = c - x . . . . . for c > x

and the corresponding time at 4 mph is ...

t2 = (c -x)/4

Then the total time is ...

T(x) = t1 +t2

T(x) = √(4+x²)/2 +(c -x)/4

(a) The value of x that minimizes total time is the one that makes the derivative zero.

T'(x) = x/(2√(4+x²)) -1/4

0 = (2x -√(4+x²))/(4√(4+x²))

√(4+x²) = 2x . . . . . fraction is zero when numerator is zero; add radical

4 +x² = 4x² . . . . . . square both sides

4/3 = x² . . . . . . . . . subtract x², divide by 3

x = (2/3)√3 ≈ 1.1547

If c = 9 miles, x = 1.1547 miles.

(b) For c < (2/3)√3, the shortest travel time will be along the straight-line path to the car.

If c = 1/2 mile, x = 1/2 mile.
