We have a sample of 28 data points. The sample mean is 30.0 and the sample standard deviation is 2.40. The confidence level required is 98%. Then, we calculate α by:

The confidence interval for the population mean, given the sample mean μ and the sample standard deviation σ, can be calculated as:
![CI(\mu)=\lbrack x-Z_{1-\frac{\alpha}{2}}\cdot\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt[]{n}},x+Z_{1-\frac{\alpha}{2}}\cdot\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt[]{n}}\rbrack](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=CI%28%5Cmu%29%3D%5Clbrack%20x-Z_%7B1-%5Cfrac%7B%5Calpha%7D%7B2%7D%7D%5Ccdot%5Cfrac%7B%5Csigma%7D%7B%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7Bn%7D%7D%2Cx%2BZ_%7B1-%5Cfrac%7B%5Calpha%7D%7B2%7D%7D%5Ccdot%5Cfrac%7B%5Csigma%7D%7B%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7Bn%7D%7D%5Crbrack)
Where n is the sample size, and Z is the z-score for 1 - α/2. Using the known values:
![CI(\mu)=\lbrack30.0-Z_{0.99}\cdot\frac{2.40}{\sqrt[]{28}},30.0+Z_{0.99}\cdot\frac{2.40}{\sqrt[]{28}}\rbrack](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=CI%28%5Cmu%29%3D%5Clbrack30.0-Z_%7B0.99%7D%5Ccdot%5Cfrac%7B2.40%7D%7B%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B28%7D%7D%2C30.0%2BZ_%7B0.99%7D%5Ccdot%5Cfrac%7B2.40%7D%7B%5Csqrt%5B%5D%7B28%7D%7D%5Crbrack)
Where (from tables):

Finally, the interval at 98% confidence level is:
The answer is 1/3 divide 12 by 12 and 36 by 12
Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we can see that
.
Thus, for the question, we can just plug -1 in:

Saying undefined (or unbounded) will be correct.
However, note that as x approaches 2, the values of y decrease in order to get to -1. In other words,
will always be greater or equal to -1 (you can also see this from the graph). This means that as x approaches 2, f(x) will approach -.99 then -.999 then -.9999 until it reaches -1 and then go back up. What is important is that because of this, we can determine that:

This is because for the denominator, the +1 will always be greater than the f(x). This makes this increase towards positive infinity. Note that limits want the values of the function as it approaches it, not at it.
The correct answer is C: 1/(x + 4)(x - 5)
Why? Well, let's first simplify x^2 - 3x - 10 and x^2 + x - 12; the two denominators. Each of these should become an (x +/- number), and to figure out the number, as well as whether it is positive or negative, we can do a simple trick
Look at the factors of the right number (In this case, -10 and -12)
-10 -12
1 * -10 1 * -12
-1 * 10 -1 * 12
-2 * 5 -2 * 6
2 * -5 2 * -6
-3 * 4
4 * -3
Now for part 2
Which of these pairs add up to the middle number? One of the pairs of -10 should make -3, and likewise, one of the pairs of -12 should make 1 (when x has no number in front of it you may safely assume it is 1).
2 - 5 = -3 and 4 - 3 = 1, so we now know that the 2 fraction equations simplified is
x + 2 / (x + 2)(x - 5) * x - 3/(x -3)(x + 4)
Notice anything repeating? As long as they are apart of the same fraction, we can cross out anything that has the same x - number. Crossing out both x + 2 and x - 3, we now simply have x - 5 * x + 4. Because we crossed out both numerators, the top numbers both become 1, thus giving our answer, C.
Answer:
There are no graphs, but the graph should look lyke this:
An open circle on the point "10"
And from the 10, the arrow should be going left, towards the negatives, or smaller numbers than the ten
