Answer: The 95% confidence interval is approximately (55.57, 58.43)
======================================================
Explanation:
At 95% confidence, the z critical value is about z = 1.960 which you find using a table or a calculator.
The sample size is n = 17
The sample mean is xbar = 57
The population standard deviation is sigma = 3
The lower bound of the confidence interval is
L = xbar - z*sigma/sqrt(n)
L = 57 - 1.960*3/sqrt(17)
L = 55.5738905247863
L = 55.57
The upper bound is
U = xbar + z*sigma/sqrt(n)
U = 57 + 1.960*3/sqrt(17)
U = 58.4261094752137
U = 58.43
Therefore the confidence interval (L, U) turns into (55.57, 58.43) which is approximate.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 face cards / suit. Every suit contains a Jack, Queen, and king.
There are 4 suits so the number of face cards is 3*4 = 12
There is 1 ace / suit
There are 4 suits so the number of aces is 1 * 4 = 4
The gain from the face cards = 12 * 13 = 156
The gain from the aces = 4 * 3 = 12
Total gain = 168
Losses
Any other card costs you $5
How many cards is that? 52 - 16 = 36
Each one costs 5 dollars
Total loss = 5 * 36 = 180
So each time you play the game, you can expect to lose 180 - 68 = 12 dollars. You should walk away quickly from this one.
The new square has length: 10 + l, where l is the original length of the square, and it's area is (10 + l)^2;
So, we solve the equation: 3 x l^2 = (10 + l)^2;
Then, 3 x l^2 = 100 + 20 x l + l^2;
Finally, 2xl^2 - 20xl - 100 = 0; / ÷2;
l^2 - 10l - 50 = 0 (we use the quadratic equation formula);
The only positive solution is l = 5(1+ \sqrt{3} );

Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
It is close, but not exactly a right triangle.
If it were a right triangle, we would have ...
21² +70² = 73²
We have instead ...
441 +4900 ≠ 5329
5341 ≠ 5329 . . . . . . . . not a right triangle
