Answer:

14.90 to 16.70 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Sample size; n = 49

Mean; x¯ = 15.8

Sample standard deviation; s = 3.85

At 90% Confidence interval, z = 1.645

Formula for confidence interval is;

CI = x¯ ± z(s/√n)

Thus;

CI = 15.8 ± 1.645(3.85/√49)

CI = 15.8 ± 0.90

CI = 14.90 to 16.70 tons

Help:) Factor f(x) = 4x^3+ 23x^2- 70x + 16 into linear factors given that - 8 is a zero of f(x).
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

(x + 8)(x - 2)(4x - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that x = - 8 is a zero then (x + 8) is a factor

Divide f(x) by (x + 8) using Synthetic division

- 8 | 4    23    - 70    16

        ↓  - 32      72   - 16

      ---------------------------------

        4    - 9       2       0

Quotient = 4x² - 9x + 2 = (x - 2)(4x - 1)

Thus

f(x) = (x + 8)(x - 2)(4x - 1)

<span>△PQR is similar to △STU

</span>m∠R = m∠U = 96°

m∠Q = m∠T = 6

m∠P = 180 - ( 96 + 6)

m∠P = 180 - 102

m∠P = 78
 
answer 

m∠P = 78
