Answer:

Equation of axis of symmetry is x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the parabola is given as;

y = -2x² + 8x - 7

The equation of the axis of symmetry is given by;

x = -b/2a

In the parabola equation given and using letters of quadratic equation, we can say that;

a = - 2

b = 8.

c = -7

Thus;

x = -b/2a = -8/(2 × - 2)

x = 8/4

x = 2

Equation of axis of symmetry is x = 2

Anastaziya [24]

Answer: (60.858, 69.142)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the confidence interval for mean :

$\overline{x}\pm z_c\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ , where $\overline{x}$ is the sample mean , $\sigma$ is the population standard deviation , n is the sample size and $z_c$ is the two-tailed test value for z.

Let x represents the time taken to mail products for all orders received at the office of this company.

As per given , we have

Confidence level : 95%

n= 62

sample mean : $\overline{x}=65$ hours

Population standard deviation : $\sigma=18$ hours

z-value for 93% confidence interval: $z_c=1.8119$ [using z-value table]

Now, 93% confidence the mean time taken to mail products for all orders received at the office of this company :-

$65\pm (1.8119)\dfrac{18}{\sqrt{62}}\\\\ 65\pm4.142\\\\=(65-4.142,\ 65+4.142)\\\\= (60.858,\ 69.142)$

Thus , 93% confidence the mean time taken to mail products for all orders received at the office of this company : (60.858, 69.142)

What is the standard deviation of the following data set?

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

D. 14.32

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for standard deviation is:

$SD = \sqrt{\frac{\sum | x-\mu|^2}{N}}$

The mean μ is 33.

The (x minus μ) squared are 361, 49, 49, 361 respectively.

So that the SD = $\sqrt{\frac{820}{4}} \approx 14.31782...$
