An additive inverse is the value you can add to a given value such that the sum is "0"..

Your answer is choice A
18xy + (-18xy) = 0 Since these are like terms.. the key here is understanding that like terms must have the same exact variables raised to the exact same powers. We can add like terms. We cannot add unlike terms.

harina [27]

$L(x,y,z,\lambda)=8x+8y+4z+\lambda(4x^2+4y^2+4z^2-36)$

$L_x=8+8\lambda x=0\implies 1+\lambda x=0$
$L_y=8+8\lambda y=0\implies 1+\lambda y=0$
$L_z=4+8\lambda z=0\implies 1+2\lambda z=0$
$L_\lambda=4x^2+4y^2+4z^2-36=0\implies x^2+y^2+z^2=9$

$yL_x=y+\lambda xy=0$
$xL_y=x+\lambda xy=0$
$\implies yL_x-xL_y=y-x=0\implies y=x$

$2zL_x=2z+2\lambda xz=0$
$xL_z=x+2\lambda xz=0$
$\implies 2zL_x-xL_z=2z-x=0\implies x=2z$

$2zL_y=2z+2\lambda yz=0$
$yL_z=y+2\lambda yz=0$
$\implies 2zL_y-yL_z=2z-y=0\implies y=2z$

$x=y=2z\implies x^2+y^2+z^2=9\iff 4z^2+4z^2+z^2=9z^2=9\implies z=\pm1$

$z=\pm1\implies y=x=\pm2$

So we have two critical points, (2, 2, 1) and (-2, -2, -1), which respectively give a max of 36 and a min of -36.

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the mean germination time is (12.3, 19.3).

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete:

Recorded here are the germination times (in days) for ten randomly chosen seeds of a new type of bean: 18, 12, 20, 17, 14, 15, 13, 11, 21, 17. Assume that the population germination time is normally distributed. Find the 99% confidence interval for the mean germination time.

We start calculating the sample mean M and standard deviation s:

$M=\dfrac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n\,x_i\\\\\\M=\dfrac{1}{10}(18+12+20+17+14+15+13+11+21+17)\\\\\\M=\dfrac{158}{10}\\\\\\M=15.8\\\\\\$

$s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{n-1}\sum_{i=1}^n\,(x_i-M)^2}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{9}((18-15.8)^2+(12-15.8)^2+(20-15.8)^2+. . . +(17-15.8)^2)}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{101.6}{9}}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{11.3}=3.4\\\\\\$

We have to calculate a 99% confidence interval for the mean.

The population standard deviation is not known, so we have to estimate it from the sample standard deviation and use a t-students distribution to calculate the critical value.

The sample mean is M=15.8.

The sample size is N=10.

When σ is not known, s divided by the square root of N is used as an estimate of σM:

$s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{N}}=\dfrac{3.4}{\sqrt{10}}=\dfrac{3.4}{3.162}=1.075$

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

df=n-1=10-1=9

The t-value for a 99% confidence interval and 9 degrees of freedom is t=3.25.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

$MOE=t\cdot s_M=3.25 \cdot 1.075=3.49$

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

$LL=M-t \cdot s_M = 15.8-3.49=12.3\\\\UL=M+t \cdot s_M = 15.8+3.49=19.3$

The 99% confidence interval for the mean germination time is (12.3, 19.3).
