Let's just start with x=20 and then do some algebra to it to make it all complicated
x = 20
2 * x = 2 * 20
2x = 40
2x - 13 = 40 - 13
2x - 13 = 27
For this problem, the confidence interval is the one we are looking
for. Since the confidence level is not given, we assume that it is 95%.
The formula for the confidence interval is: mean ± t (α/2)(n-1) * s √1 + 1/n
Where:
<span>
</span>
α= 5%
α/2
= 2.5%
t
0.025, 19 = 2.093 (check t table)
n
= 20
df
= n – 1 = 20 – 1 = 19
So plugging in our values:
8.41 ± 2.093 * 0.77 √ 1 + 1/20
= 8.41 ± 2.093 * 0.77 (1.0247)
= 8.41 ± 2.093 * 0.789019
= 8.41 ± 1.65141676

Answer: x=0 or x= plus or minus 2
Step-by-step explanation:
g(x)=x^4-8x^2+7
Critical numbers are the numbers where the first derivative is zero
g'(x)=4x^3-16x+0
=4x^3-16x
g'(x)=0
Implies
4x^3-16x=0
4x(x^2-4)=0
4x=0 OR x^2-4=0
x=0 or x^2=4
x=0 or x= plus or minus 2
