Answer:

Insurance cost (last year)= £387.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Insurance cost= £465

Increase growth rate= 20% = 0.2

<u>To calculate the cost of insurance last year, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Insurance cost (last year)= insurance cost / (1 + insurance growth rate)

Insurance cost (last year)= 465 / (1 + 0.2)

Insurance cost (last year)= £387.5

A researcher records the repair cost for 8 randomly selected washers. A sample mean of $60.46 and standard deviation of $18.36 a
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

The critical value is T = 1.895.

The 90% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the washers is between $48.159 and $72.761

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, so we use the t-distribution.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 8 - 1 = 6

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 6 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95. So we have T = 1.895, which is the critical value.

The margin of error is:

M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.895\frac{18.36}{\sqrt{8}} = 12.301

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 60.46 - 12.301 = $48.159

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 60.46 + 12.301 = $72.761

The 90% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the washers is between $48.159 and $72.761

X-intercept and y-intercepts og y=x^2-3
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Part 1) The y-intercept is the point (0,-3)

Part 2) The x-intercepts are the points (-\sqrt{3},0)\ and\ (\sqrt{3},0)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y=x^{2}-3

This is a vertical parabola open upward

step 1

Find the y-intercept

we know that

The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

so

For x=0

y=(0)^{2}-3

y=-3

The y-intercept is the point (0,-3)

step 2

Find the x-intercepts

we know that

The x-intercept is the value of x when the value of y is equal to zero

so

For y=0

x^{2}-3=0

solve for x

Adds 3 both sides

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

x^{2}=3

take square root both sides

x=(+/-)\sqrt{3}

so

The x-intercepts are the points (-\sqrt{3},0)\ and\ (\sqrt{3},0)
