The number is 8 because 4 times 8 equals 24 plus 2 is 26

For this sort of question you have to work backwards.

26 - 2 = 24.

24 / 4 = 6

The number would be 6

1. A sample consists of 75 TV sets purchased several years ago. The replacement times of those TV sets have a mean of 8.2 years.

Greeley [361]

Answer:

8.2+/-0.25

= ( 7.95, 8.45) years

the 95% confidence interval (a,b) = (7.95, 8.45) years

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = 8.2 years

Standard deviation r = 1.1 years

Number of samples n = 75

Confidence interval = 95%

z value(at 95% confidence) = 1.96

Substituting the values we have;

8.2+/-1.96(1.1/√75)

8.2+/-1.96(0.127017059221)

8.2+/-0.248953436074

8.2+/-0.25

= ( 7.95, 8.45)

Therefore the 95% confidence interval (a,b) = (7.95, 8.45) years

Write an equation of the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints are (−1,1) and (7,−5)

icang [17]

The equation is $y = \frac{3}{2} x - \frac{11}{2}$

<u>Explanation:</u>

We have to first find the mid-point of the segment, the formula for which is

$(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} , \frac{y_1+y_2}{2} )$

So, the midpoint will be $(\frac{-1+7}{2} , \frac{1-5}{2} )\\\\$

= $(3,-2)$

It is the point at which the segment will be bisected.

Since we are finding a perpendicular bisector, we must determine what slope is perpendicular to that of the existing segment. To determine the segment's slope, we use the slope formula $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$
