Answer:

(16.904 ; 30.660)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

X = 23.71,17.79,29.87,18.78,28.76

Sample size = 5

Mean = (23.71+17.79+29.87+18.78,+28.76) / 5 = 23.782

Using a calculator, sample standard deviation :

Standard deviation, s = 5.54

Tcritical at α = 0.05, df = 5 - 1 = 4

Using tables ; Tcritical value = 2.7763

Confidence interval :

Mean ± Margin of Error

Margin of Error (MOE) = Tcritical * SE

Margin of Error = Tcritical * s/sqrt (n)

MOE = 2.7763 * 5.54/Sqrt(5) = 6.878

Confidence interval : 23.782 ± 6.878

Lower boundary : 23.782 - 6.878 = 16.904

Upper boundary = 23.782 + 6.878 = 30.66

(16.904 ; 30.660)

What are all of the x-intercepts of the continuous function in the table? (0, 8) (–4, 0) (–4, 0), (4, 0) (–4, 0), (0, 8), (4, an
crimeas [40]

Answer:

The  x-intercepts of the continuous function in the table are:

(-4,0) and (4,0).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a table of values of the continuous functions as:

(0, 8) (–4, 0) (–4, 0), (4, 0)

The x-intercept of a function is a point on the x-axis i.e. where y=0. (i.e. The x-intercept is where a line crosses the x-axis ).

Here y=f(x).

Hence from the given set of values we have:

f(x)=0 when x= -4 and x=4.

Since we are given the points as (-4,0) and (4,0).

Hence, the x-intercepts of the function f(x) is: (-4,0) and (4,0).
