8 0

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

(x-4)^2=5

(x-4)(x-4)=5

x(x-4)-4(x-4)=5

distribute

x^2-4x-4x+16=5

combine like terms

x^2-8x+16=5

move terms to the left and combine

x^2-8x+11=0

use the quadratic formula and simplify

x=-(-8)+/-2 to the square roots of 5 over 2

separate and solve

x=4+ square root of 5

x=4- square root of 5

ANSWER: x=4+/- square root of 5

prohojiy [21]
Given:
Sample size, n = 40
Sample mean, xb = $6.88

The confidence interval is
(xb + 1.645*(σ/√n), xb - 1.645*(σ/√n)
= (6.88 + (1.645*1.92)/√40, 6.88 - (1.645*1.92)/√40)
= (7.38, 6.38)
