Answer:

[ 21.79, 33.0 ]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Sample size, n = 7

Sample mean, μ = 27.4

Standard deviation, σ = 5.75

Confidence level is 99%

also, population is normal i.e normally distributed

Thus,

Confidence interval = μ ± z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt n}

For confidence level of 99%

z-value = 2.58

Therefore,

Lower limit of Confidence interval = μ - 2.58\times\frac{5.75}{\sqrt{7}}

or

Lower limit of Confidence interval = 27.4 - 2.58\times\frac{5.75}{\sqrt{7}}

or

Lower limit of Confidence interval = 21.79

Upper limit of Confidence interval = μ + 2.58\times\frac{5.75}{\sqrt{7}}

or

Upper limit of Confidence interval = 27.4 + 2.58\times\frac{5.75}{\sqrt{7}}

or

Upper limit of Confidence interval = 33.00

Hence, confidence interval = [ 21.79, 33.0 ]

A rectangle has an area of 24 cm2 Function f gives the length of the rectangle, in centimeters, when the width is w cm. Determin
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Input is the value of w and the function f = 24/w as length x breadth = area of rectangle

If w = 0.5, then f = 24/0.5 = 48cm. So, it is a possible input of the function.

If w = 48, then f = 24/48 = 0.5cm. So, it is a possible input of the function.

If w = 0, then f = 24/0 = 0cm. So, it is not a possible input of the function as it cannot be defined

If w = -6, then f = 24/-6= -4cm. So, it is not a possible input of the function as a length and width can't be negative

If w = 3, then f = 24/3 = 8cm. So, it is a possible input of the function.
