As an aid to the establishment of personnel requirements, the director of a hospital wishes to estimate the mean number of peopl

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer: 24.9793

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The director randomly selects 64 different 24-hour periods and determines the number of admissions for each.

For this sample, he calculated a mean $\overlien{x}=396$ and a standard deviation of 100.

The 95% confidence interval results in an interval of $396 \pm 24.9793$

We know that the confidence interval for population mean is given by :_

$\overlien{x}\pm E$ , where E is the margin of error.

By comparing this to the given interval , we find that the margin of error = 24.9793

What are the solutions to the following system of equations? y = x2 + 3x − 7 3x − y = −2 (2 points) (3, 11) and (−3, −7) (11, 3)

Minchanka [31]

ANSWER

(3, 11) and (−3, −7)

EXPLANATION

The given system of equations are:

$y = {x}^{2} + 3x - 7$

and

$3x - y = - 2$

or

$y = 3x + 2$

We equate the two equations to obtain,

${x}^{2} + 3x - 7 = 3x + 2$

We rewrite in standard quadratic form to obtain,

${x}^{2} + 3x - 3x - 7 - 2 = 0$

This simplifies to

${x}^{2}- 9= 0$

We solve for x to obtain,

${x}^{2} = 9$

$x = \pm \sqrt{9}$

$x = \pm 3$

$x = 3 \: or \: x = - 3$

When
$x = 3$

$y = 3(3) + 2 = 11$

When x=-3,

$y = 3( - 3) + 2 = - 7$

Therefore the solution for the system is (3, 11) and (−3, −7).
