$f(x)=5-2x^3\\
y=5-2x^3\\
2x^3=-y+5\\
x^3=-\dfrac{y-5}{2}\\
x=\sqrt[3]{-\dfrac{y-5}{2}}=-\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{y-5}{2}}\\
f^{-1}(x)=-\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{x-5}{2}}$

a city stores fresh water in a spherical tank. The tank has a radius of 32 feet. One cubic foot is approximately 7.5 gallons. If

Serjik [45]

Answer: There will be about 888,915 gallons of water left in the spherical tank.

First, we need to determine the volume of the tank. The volume formula for a sphere is (4/3)pi(r^3). All we have to do is input the 32 for pi and evaluate. You will have a volume of 137,189 cubic feet.

Now, multiply that by 7.5 and you will have 1,028,915 gallons of water in the tank.

Finally, just subtract the 140,000 gallons and we are at our answer.

Answer:

The minimum sample size required to create the specified confidence interval is 2229.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1-0.99}{2} = 0.005$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1-\alpha$ .

So it is z with a pvalue of $1-0.005 = 0.995$ , so $z = 2.575$

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

What is the minimum sample size required to create the specified confidence interval

This is n when $M = 0.06, \sigma = 1.1$

$0.06 = 2.575*\frac{1.1}{\sqrt{n}}$

$0.06\sqrt{n} = 2.575*1.1$

$\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.575*1.1}{0.06}$

$(\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{2.575*1.1}{0.06})^{2}$

$n = 2228.6$

Rounding up

The minimum sample size required to create the specified confidence interval is 2229.

The ages in years of 21 people in a swimming pool are displayed in the stem-and-leaf plot. Determine the median age of

LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

<h3>5 years</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the median of the ages given

2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8, 8, 0, 3, 5, 9, 1, 4, 7, 6, 1, 2, 4, 4, 8

First we will need to rearrange the median ages in ascending order (from lowest to highest)

0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8, 9

Next is to locate the middle value of the arranged data

(0, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 4), 5, (5, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8, 8, 8, 8, 9)

The total values in both parenthesis are the same(10 in numbers) leaving 5 as the middle number.

Hence the median age of the people in the pool is 5years
