Answer:

[μ-error, μ + error]

[14000- 3000, 14000 + 3000]

Step-by-step explanation:

We write it how an interval, where the center of the interval is the mean, thus

[μ-error, μ + error]

First we calculate the mean

μ = (11000+17000)/2

μ = $14000

And the error is the absolute value of the difference between the mean an either extreme values

error = |14000 -17000| = |14000 - 11000| = 3000

Then

[14000- 3000, 14000 + 3000]

Use the definition mtan=lim

Leokris [45]

(a) mtan refers to the slope of the tangent line. Given f(x) = 9 + 7x ², compute the difference quotient:

$\dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}h = \dfrac{(9+7(x+h)^2)-(9+7x^2)}h = \dfrac{(9+7x^2+14xh+7h^2)-9-7x^2}h = \dfrac{14xh+7h^2}h$

Then as h approaches 0 - bearing in mind that we're specifically considering h near 0, and not h = 0 - we can eliminate the factor of h in the numerator and denominator, so that

$m_{\rm tan} = \displaystyle \lim_{h\to0}\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}h = \lim_{h\to0}\frac{14xh+7h^2}h = \lim_{h\to0}(14x+7h) = 14x$

and so the slope of the line at P (0, 9), for which we take x = 0, is 0.

(b) The equation of the tangent line is then y = 9.
