The water was pumped out of a backyard pond. What is the domainof this graph?

nalin [4]

I think it's D because you can't have negative minutes and after 8 minutes you can't go any deeper than 0 inches.

We considered the differences between the temperature readings in January 1 of 1968 and 2008 at 51 locations in the continental

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

$1.1-2.02\frac{4.9}{\sqrt{50}}=-0.30$

$1.1+2.02\frac{4.9}{\sqrt{50}}=2.50$

So on this case the 90% confidence interval would be given by (-0.30;2.50)

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X=1.1$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

s=4.9 represent the sample standard deviation

n=51 represent the sample size

Solution to the problem

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

In order to calculate the critical value $t_{\alpha/2}$ we need to find first the degrees of freedom, given by:

$df=n-1=51-1=50$

Since the Confidence is 0.90 or 90%, the value of $\alpha=0.1$ and $\alpha/2 =0.05$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-T.INV(0.05,50)".And we see that $t_{\alpha/2}=2.02$

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

$1.1-2.02\frac{4.9}{\sqrt{50}}=-0.30$

$1.1+2.02\frac{4.9}{\sqrt{50}}=2.50$

So on this case the 90% confidence interval would be given by (-0.30;2.50)

Belinda wants to invest in an option that would help to increase your investment value by the greatest amount in 20 years. Will

Molodets [167]

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A, Option 1 is a exponential function while option is a linear equation.

Part B, Let y=b*a^(x) be the function for option 1. At x=1, y=1100 and at x=2, y=1210. 1100=b*a and 1210=b*a^2. Dividing them both we get, b=1.1 and a=1000. y=1000*(1.1)^(x). For option 2, it's a linear equation with a function y(x)=1000+100x.

The 20 year difference would be immense. With option 1, Belinda will get $6727.5 whereas with option 2, they will end up with $3000
