Answer:

13.18651685

13.9

Explain:

890-238=652
652/890=0.7325842697 (Find out the percentage)

We know that 1 gram of Element X will be fully decayed in 18 minutes and half of it in 9 minutes.

0.7325842697x18=13.18651685

As you see 18/13.18651685 will equal to 18 (not exactly since it is rounded)

And of course we need to round it to nearest tenth. So the answer would be 13.9!

Answer:

X[bar]= 115

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Every Confidence interval to estimate the population mean are constructed following the structure:

"Estimator" ± margin of error"

Wich means that the intervals are centered around the sample mean. To know the value of the sample mean you have to make the following calculation:

X[bar]= \frac{Upper bond + Low bond}{2}

X[bar]= \frac{115.6+114.4}{2} = 115

Since both intervals were calculated with the information of the same sample, you can choose either to calculate the sample mean.

I hope it helps!
