Answer:

The 99% confidence interval = (126.93,157.67)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Confidence Interval =

Mean ± z × Standard deviation /√n

Mean = 142. 3 mmHg

Standard deviation = 20.8 mmHg.

n = 12

Z score for 99% confidence interval = 2.56

Confidence Interval =

142.3 ± 2.56 × 20.8/√12

142.3 ± 2.56 × 6.0044427996

142.3 ± 15.371373567

Confidence Interval

= 142.3 - 15.371373567

= 126.92862643

≈ 126.93

142.3 + 15.371373567

= 157.67137357

≈ 157.67

Therefore, the 99% confidence interval = (126.93,157.67)

Find the product of x^2(4x-3)
TEA [102]

Answer:

4 x^3 - 3 x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand the following:

x^2 (4 x - 3)

x^2 (4 x - 3) = x^2×4 x + x^2 (-3):

4 x^2 x - 3 x^2

x^2×4 x = x^(2 + 1)×4:

4 x^(2 + 1) - 3 x^2

2 + 1 = 3:

Answer: 4 x^3 - 3 x^2

What is the following sum 3b^2
densk [106]

The given expression is 3b^2*(\sqrt[3]{54a}) + 3*(\sqrt[3]{2ab^6})

This can be simplified as :

= 3*b^2*(\sqrt[3]{27 *2*a}) + 3*(\sqrt[3]{2*a*b^6})

We know that: \sqrt[3]{27}  = 3

Similarly we also can simplify: \sqrt[3]{b^6}  = b^2

So our expression will look like this:

= 3*3*b^2*(\sqrt[3]{2a}) + 3*b^2*(\sqrt[3]{2a})

= 9b^2*(\sqrt[3]{2a}) + 3b^2*(\sqrt[3]{2a})

=\sqrt[3]{2a}*(9b^2 + 3b^2)

=\sqrt[3]{2a}*(12b^2)

This can also be written as:

12b^2(\sqrt[3]{2a})

So the Answer is Option B

An automobile salesman receives a monthly bonus cheque if his commission income is at least $6,800.00 in a given month. There ar
Reika [66]

The salesman earns $850 per automobile he sells.

Since x represents the amount of automobiles the salesman sells, we can apply the commission as a coefficient to this variable. Therefore, the total commission that the salesman earns can be represented by $850x.

The bonus cheque is only received if the salesman's commission income is <em>at least </em>$6,800. 'at least' means that the salesman can still receive the cheque if his commission is exactly $6,800. The sign that we can use for this situation is the greater than or equal to sign, ≥.

The inequality that shows the commission income needed for the cheque is $850x ≥ $6,800. However, this question asks for the number of automobiles the salesman must sell to get the cheque.

Divide both sides by $850, as that represents his sales from one commission:

x ≥ 8

The inequality x ≥ 8 represents the amount of automobiles the salesman will need to sell to get the bonus cheque.

A = LW
A = (< = 33)
L = W + 8

W(W + 8) < = 33
W^2 + 8W < = 33
W^2 + 8W - 33 < = 0
(W + 11)(W - 3) < = 0

W + 11 < = 0
W < = -11 (extraneous solution)

W - 3 < = 0
W < = 3 <===

L < = W + 8
L < = 3 + 8
L < = 11 <===
