Answer:

2, 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so for this you have to substitute. y=4 so you put a 4 where the y is. This becomes

4 - 3x = -2 We can already rule out (2,2) and (4,2) Why? Because the y is not a 4. So it’s gonna be either (0,4) or (2,4). Now, we have to find x. We have to isolate it. You do this by subtracting 4 from both sides.

4 - 4 - 3x = -2 - 4 Now Simplify

-3x = -6 Why -6? Because you can’t subtract a positive from a negative so it becomes -2 + -4. Since they are both negatives, you just add them together, then put the negative sign.

Now divide -3 from both sides. Which becomes

x = 2

Airida [17]

Answer:

$ME=\frac{Upper-Lower}{2}= \frac{8.15-6.55}{2}= 0.80$

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".

$\bar X$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

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

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

For this case the confidence interval is given by (6.55,8.15). And we can estimate the margin of error with this formula since the confidence interval is symmetrical:

$ME=\frac{Upper-Lower}{2}= \frac{8.15-6.55}{2}= 0.80$
