Answer:
A company produces electric insulators. The strength of the insulators is important since a broken insulator may cause a short circuit. Unfortunately, the strength varies significantly due to the material. Because of the expense, only a limited number of insulators could be tested. The engineers sampled 25 insulators (From a production run of 200), and conducted a destructive test to determine the force that was required to break the insulators. The mean value of this force was 1723 lbf with a sample standard deviation of 90 lbf. You may approximate the population standard deviation with the sample standard deviation for the following questions. a. Determine if the population is large enough or if a finite population correction (FPC) factor is needed. If so, what is the FPC factor? b. For 95% confidence, determine the margin of error (+ lbf) c. For these conditions, estimate the range of the probable population mean. Provide lower and upper values. For 95% confidence, determine the margin of error ( Assume the same mean and sample standard deviation. What is one advantage and one disadvantage of using 50 insulators instead of 25 insulators? d. lbf) if 50 insulators were tested.

Answer:
- relative maximum: -4
- relative (and absolute) minimum: -5
Step-by-step explanation:
The curve has a relative maximum where values on either side are lower. This looks like a peak in the curve. There is one of those on the y-axis at y = -4.
The relative maximum is -4.
__
A relative minimum is a low point, where the curve is higher on either side. There are two of these, located symmetrically about the y-axis. The minimum appears to be about y = -5. (They might be at x = ± 1, but it is hard to tell.)
The relative minima are -5.
__
A minimum or maximum is absolute if no part of the curve is lower or higher. Here, the minima are absolute, while the maximum is only relative. (The left and right branches of the curve go higher than y=-4.)
_____
Identifying the points on the curve should be the easy part. Deciding what the coordinates are can be harder when the graph is like this one.
2) 4 = 90
5 = 45
6 = 45
16) this one's a bit long :)

Answer:
$23,219.72
Step-by-step explanation:
ab^x
a: initial value
b: value remaining after depreciation per year (in percentage)
x: number of years that have passed
35000(0.95)^8= 23219.7151
Round to the nearest hundredth value:
About $23219.72
