Answer:

Sample mean = 7.1

Margin of error = 0.465

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for confidence interval is;

CI = x¯ ± zE

Where;

x¯ is sample mean

z is critical value at confidence level

E is margin of error.

z for 99% Cl is 2.58

We are told the CI is 5.9 to 8.3.

Thus;

5.9 = x¯ - 2.58E - - - - (1)

8.3 = x¯ + 2.58E - - - - (2)

Add both equations together to get;

14.2 = 2x¯

x¯ = 14.2/2

x¯ = 7.1

Put 7.1 for x¯ in eq 1 to get;

5.9 = 7.1 - 2.58E

7.1 - 5.9 = 2.58E

E = 1.2/2.58

E = 0.465

Composition of functions Find g (f(x)) for the following problems
beks73 [17]

1.

f(x)=-3x\qquad g(x)=5x-6\\\\g(f(x))=5(-3x)-6=\boxed{-15x-6}

2.

f(x)=x-6\qquad g(x)=x^2+6x-2\\\\g(f(x))=(x-6)^2+6(x-6)-2=x^2-12x+36+6x-36-2=\\\\=\boxed{x^2-6x-2}

3.

f(x)=4x+3\qquad g(x)=2x^2-x+1\\\\g(f(x))=2(4x+3)^2-(4x+3)+1=2(16x^2+24x+9)-4x-3+1=\\\\=32x^2+48x+18-4x-3+1=\boxed{32x^2+44x+16}

4.

f(x)=2x^2\qquad g(x)=8x^2+3x\\\\g(f(x))=8(2x^2)^2+3(2x^2)=8\cdot4x^4+6x^2=\boxed{32x^4+6x^2}
