Considering that the car does 50 miles per gallon, the linear function for the number of gallons of fuel in Jim's fuel tank, n, in terms of the number of miles x that Jim has driven since filling his tank is given by:
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
A linear function is modeled by:
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.
In this problem:
- Jim's car holds 14 gallons of fuel, hence
.
- Considering it does 50 miles per gallon, and the amount in the tank will decrease, the slope is
.
Hence, the function is:

The confidence interval is
. This means that we can be 99% confident that the mean number of books people read lies between 9.15 and 11.85.
To find the confidence interval, we first find the z-score associated with it:
Convert 99% to a decimal: 0.99
Subtract from 1: 1-0.99=0.01
Divide by 2: 0.01/2 = 0.005
Subtract from 1: 1-0.005 = 0.995
Using a z-table (http://www.z-table.com) we see that this is associated with a z-score between 2.57 and 2.58. Since both are equally far from this value we will use 2.575.
We calculate the margin of error using
This means that the confidence interval is
The lower limit is given by 10.5-1.35 = 9.15.
The upper limit is given by 10.5+1.35 = 11.85
Write the set of points from -6 to 0 but excluding -4 and 0 as a union of intervals
First we take the interval -6 to 0. In that -4 and 0 are excluded.
So we split the interval -6 to 0.
Start with -6 and go up to -4. -4 is excluded so we break at -4. Also we use parenthesis for -4.
Interval becomes [-6,-4) . It says -6 included but -4 excluded.
Next interval starts at -4 and ends at 0. -4 and 0 are excluded so we use parenthesis not square brackets
(-4,0)
Now we take union of both intervals
[-6,-4) U (-4,0) --- Interval from -6 to 0 but excluding -4 and 0
To round off to 10, the difference should range from 5 to 14. If the difference between two numbers is from 5 to 14, they all are rounded to 10.
