Answer:

1/3 , only one solution

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-1 = 1-3x

3x-1 = -3x+1

6x-1 = 1

6x = 2

x = 1/3

Answer:

Infinitely many solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

$3x+1-3(x-1)=4\\\\3x+1-1-3(x-1)=4-1\\\\3x-3(x-1)=3\\\\3x-3x-3=3\\\\\boxed{3=3}$

Hope this helps.

Answer:

a) $s^2 =30^2 =900$

b) $\frac{(19)(30)^2}{30.144} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(19)(30)^2}{10.117}$

$567.28 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 1690.224$

c) $23.818 \leq \sigma \leq 41.112$

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the following question: Because of staffing decisions, managers of the Gibson-Marimont Hotel are interested in the variability in the number of rooms occupied per day during a particular season of the year. A sample of 20 days of operation shows a sample mean of 290 rooms occupied per day and a sample standard deviation of 30 rooms

Part a

For this case the best point of estimate for the population variance would be:

$s^2 =30^2 =900$

Part b

The confidence interval for the population variance is given by the following formula:

$\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{\alpha/2}} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{1-\alpha/2}}$
