Answer:
a = - 2, b = - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Substitute the values of the zeros into the polynomial and equate to zero.
x² +(a + 1)x + b
x = - 2 → (- 2)² - 2(a + 1) + b = 0 , that is
4 - 2a - 2 + b = 0
2 - 2a + b = 0 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
- 2a + b = - 2 → (1)
x = 3 → 3² + 3(a + 1) + b = 0, that is
9 + 3a + 3 + b = 0
12 + 3a + b = 0 ( subtract 12 from both sides )
3a + b = - 12 → (2)
Subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate b
5a = - 10 ( divide both sides by 5 )
a = - 2
Substitute a = - 2 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for b
Substituting into (2)
3(- 2) + b = - 12
- 6 + b = - 12 ( add 6 to both sides )
b = - 6
Thus a = - 2 and b = - 6

Answer:
The upper bound is 399.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start by calculating the mean value of the distribution as the addition of all values given divided by 12:
Average = 289.75.
If the standard deviation is 56, then the upper bound in 95% the confidence interval for the mean price of the phones is going to be given by the mean value added to 56 times 1.96 (since 95% of the population is withing 1.96 times the standard deviation)
That is: 289.75 + 56 * 1.96 = 399.51
which rounded to one decimal place gives: 399.5
