Answer:

$A(\triangle ABC) =17.5 \: {units}^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

AB = 4 - (-3) = 4 + 3 = 7 units

BC = 3 - (-2) = 3 + 2 = 5 units

$A(\triangle ABC) = \frac{1}{2} \times AB\times BC \\ \\ A(\triangle ABC) = \frac{1}{2} \times 7\times 5 \\ \\ A(\triangle ABC) = \frac{1}{2} \times 35 \\ \\ A(\triangle ABC) =17.5 \: {units}^{2}$

Which is the minimum or maximum value of the given function? a. The function has a minimum value of -2 b. The function has a min

Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

The function f(x) is not given, I used a different function but the approach and steps is the same .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function f(x) = 2x2 - 8x + 5

compare with the normal quadratic equation ; ax2 + bx + c = f(x)

a = 2, b = -8 and c = +5

since a is greater than zero i.e a > o {positive}

As such, it has a minimum

hence for minimum value; x = -b/2a

x = -(-8)/2 x 2

x = 8/4 = 2

plugging the values of x in f(x) ; f(2) = 2(2)^2 -8(2) + 5

f(2) = -3, hence it has minimum value and the minimum value is -3

You are given the sample mean and the population standard deviation. Use this information to construct the 90% and 95% confide

FrozenT [24]

Question:

You are given the sample mean and the population standard deviation. Use this information to construct the 90% and 95% confidence intervals for the population mean. Interpret the results and compare the widths of the confidence intervals. If convenient, use technology to construct the confidence intervals. A random sample of 45 home theater systems has a mean price of $114.00. Assume the population standard deviation is $15.30. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean.

Answer:

At the 90% confidence level, confidence interval = 110.2484 < μ < 117.7516

At the 95% confidence level, confidence interval = 109.53 < μ < 118.48

The 95% confidence interval is wider

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we have

Sample size, n = 45

Sample mean, $\bar x$ = $114.00

Population standard deviation, σ = $15.30

The formula for Confidence Interval, CI is given by the following relation;

$CI=\bar{x}\pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

Where, z is found for the 90% confidence level as ±1.645

Plugging in the values, we have;

$CI=114\pm 1.645 \times \frac{15.3}{\sqrt{45}}$

or CI: 110.2484 < μ < 117.7516

At 95% confidence level, we have our z value given as z = ±1.96

From which we have $CI=114\pm 1.96 \times \frac{15.3}{\sqrt{45}}$

Hence CI: 109.53 < μ < 118.48

To find the wider interval, we subtract their minimum from the maximum as follows;

90% Confidence level: 117.7516 - 110.2484 = 7.5

95% Confidence level: 118.47503 - 109.5297 = 8.94

Therefore, the 95% confidence interval is wider.
