Answer:

(a) \sum x_i=56.68 and \sum x_i^2=197.46

(b) The sample variance is s^2=0.530 and the sample standard deviation is s=0.728

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

The sum of these 17 sample observations is

\sum x_i=2.79\:+2.57+\:2.73\:+3.75\:+2.27+\:2.75+\:4.00+\:4.22+\:3.88+\:4.35+\:3.41+\:4.57+\:2.38+\:3.73\:+2.75+\:3.47+\:3.06\\\\\sum x_i=56.68

and the sum of their squares is

\sum x_i^2=2.79^2\:+2.57^2+\:2.73^2\:+3.75^2\:+2.27^2+\:2.75^2+\:4.00^2+\:4.22^2+\:3.88^2+\:4.35^2+\:3.41^2+\:4.57^2+\:2.38^2+\:3.73^2\:+2.75^2+\:3.47^2+\:3.06^2\\\\\sum x_i^2=197.46

(b)

The sample variance, denoted by s^2, is given by

s^2=\frac{S_{xx}}{n-1}

where S_{xx} =\sum x_i^2-\frac{(\sum x_i)^2}{n}

Applying the above formula we get that

S_{xx}=197.46-\frac{(56.68)^2}{17}\\\\S_{xx} =8.482

s^2=\frac{8.482}{17-1}=0.530

The sample standard deviation, denoted by <em>s</em>, is the (positive) square root of the variance:

s=\sqrt{s^2}

Applying the above formula we get that

s=\sqrt{0.530}=0.728

Find the difference quotient <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7Bf%28x%20%2B%20h%29%20-%20f%28x%29%7D%7Bh%7D" id="TexFor
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

-2x - h - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Difference Quotient: \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}

f(x) = -x² - 3x + 1

f(x + h) means that x = (x + h)

f(x) is just the normal function

Step 2: Find difference quotient

  1. <u>Substitute:</u> \frac{[-(x+h)^2-3(x+h)+1]-(-x^2-3x+1)}{h}
  2. <u>Expand and Distribute:</u> \frac{[-(x^2+2hx+h^2)-3x-3h+1]+x^2+3x-1}{h}
  3. <u>Distribute:</u> \frac{-x^2-2hx-h^2-3x-3h+1+x^2+3x-1}{h}
  4. <u>Combine like terms:</u> \frac{-2hx-h^2-3h}{h}
  5. <u>Factor out </u><em><u>h</u></em><u>:</u> \frac{h(-2x-h-3)}{h}
  6. <u>Simplify:</u> -2x - h - 3
