Answer:

b. 35.9, 39.1 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

barX=37.465 represent the sample mean for the sample  

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

s=2.27 represent the sample standard deviation

n=10 represent the sample size

Confidence interval

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

barX +- t*[(s)/(sqrt{n))]   (1)

In order to calculate the critical value t we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

df=n-1=10-1=9

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of alpha=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025, and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.025,9)".And we see that t_(alpha/2)=2.26

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

37.465-2.26[(2.27)/(sqrt{10))]=35.9    

37.465+2.26[(2.27)/(sqrt{10))]=39.1

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (35.9;39.1)

8 times the difference between a number and 6 is equal to 4 times the number.
iVinArrow [24]
8(x - 6) = 4x
Distribute.
8x - 48 = 4x
Subtract 8x from both sides.
8x -8x - 48 =4x -8x
Now you have...
-48 = -4x
Divide -4 by both sides.
-48/-4 = -4x/-4
12 = x
The number is 12.

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

<u>Same side angles are supplementary</u>

L+k=180

18x-18+72=180

18x=126

x=7

m∠18(7)-18

= 108°
