TThe 95% confidence interval for the mean spent on books at this university is (160.711, 179.289).

In the given question we have to find the 95% confidence interval for the mean spent on books at this university.

A sample of 50 students was taken from the local university.

So n=50

These students spent an average of $170 on books this semester, with a standard deviation of $25.50.

So x=$170 and σ = $25.50

So the 95% confidence interval for the mean spent on books at this university.

CI=x ± [tex]z_{\alpha /2}[/tex]× σ/√n

Now finding the value of [tex]z_{\alpha /2}[/tex] for 99%=0.99 confidence interval.

[tex]\alpha[/tex] =1−0.99 = 0.01

[tex]\alpha[/tex]/2 = 0.01/2 = 0.005

[tex]z_{\alpha /2}=z_{0.005}[/tex]

[tex]z_{\alpha /2}[/tex] = 2.576

The z critical value at 99% confidence interval is 2.576.

Putting the value

CI=170 ± 2.576× 25.50/√50

CI=170 ± 2.576× 25.50/7.071

CI=170 ± 2.576×3.606

CI=170 ± 9.289

CI=(170 − 9.289, 170 + 9.289)

CI =(160.711, 179.289)

Hence, the 95% confidence interval for the mean spent on books at this university is (160.711, 179.289).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

14. y = -2/3x + 10. This is parallel to 2x -3y because they have the same slope.

15. y = -1/2x and y = -1/2x + 2. These are perpendicular because the slope is the opposite reciprocal to the slope of y = 2x + 3, which is 2.
The slopes of the lines of the 2 equations are the same. Because of that, we can state that 2 lines that are perpendicular to the same line are parallel. This can be further supported by the Perpendicular Transversal Theorem, which says the same thing.

After 12 months for Emma and 10 months for Evie they will have the same amount of money that is $ 2,600

Given:

Case 1 : Amount of money Emma already has = $ 2000

Amount she plans to save per month = $ 50

Thus according to the above data after 12 months Emma would have

12 × 50 = 600 + 2000

this is equal to $ 2600

Case 2 : Amount of money Evie has = $ 1,600

Amount of money she plans to save every month = $ 100

Thus after 10 months she will have 10 multiplied by 100 which is $ 1000

Thus the total amount she will have = 1000 + 1600

which is equal to $ 2,600

Thus after 12 months for Emma and 10 months for Evie they will have the same amount of money that is $ 2,600

Answer:

Integer, Rational, Real

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's go through and define what each of these are:

Integer:

An integer is any number (including zero) that is positive or negative. Please note that it cannot be a decimal / fraction.

-1 is a whole, negative number. So, it is an integer.

Rational:

A rational number is any number that can be written as a ratio of 2 numbers. Ex: 1.5 can be 3/2

-1 can be written as -1/1, so it is a rational number.

Real

A real number is *any* number that is not imaginary (the number i is imaginary. i is [tex]\sqrt{-1}[/tex])

-1 has no i so it is a real number

Irrational

An irrational number is any number with a radical at it's end. Ex: 3 [tex]\sqrt{5}[/tex], and [tex]2\sqrt{2}[/tex]

-1 has no radical attached to it, so it is not an irrational number.

Whole:

A whole number is any number that has no decimal and is positive (though zero is included)

-1 has no negative, but is a negative number so it would not be counted as a whole number.

Natural:

Natural numbers were always confusing to me, but I hope this will help you. A natural number is any positive number starting at 1, and going forever. They always increase in a multiple of 1. Examples of natural numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4... It is called a natural number, because counting in multiples of ones is natural to us, like counting the amount of apples in a basket.

-1 is a negative number, so doesn't qualify for the characteristics of a natural number.

Let's go back through all of these explanations and see which ones we said -1 is:

Using the ideal gas law, pv=nrt we can find the number of moles (n), pressure (P), volume (V), Kelvin (T).

The relationship between pressure (P), volume (V), amount of gas (n), and temperature (T) is represented by the ideal gas equation, PV=nRT (T). Because it assumes that gas is functioning in an ideal or theoretical way and can therefore be written as a universal gas constant, it is known as "the ideal gas law" (represented by R in the equation).

It is believed that the gas is perfect.

In many cases, pressure (P) is measured in atmospheres (atm). Liters are commonly used to measure volume (V) (L). Mole amounts (n) are frequently used as units of measurement (mol). The unit of temperature is Kelvin (T) (K).

R is the universal constant. The SI value is 8.31 J/mol∗K

The ideal gas law is helpful for comprehending and computing the characteristics and actions of gas, such as when developing cars or airplanes. It is also crucial for understanding thermodynamics. For instance, the pressure can be determined when the temperature, volume, and quantity of gas are known. When the variables are unknown, the ideal gas law equation can be changed to provide a solution for each one.

Hence by using the ideal gas law, pv=nrt compute the characteristics and actions of gas.

A linear equation in two variable can be written in general form as y = mx + c. The slope and y-intercept are 1 / 2 and 30 respectively.  

A linear equation is an equation having only one variable.

Its degree is one and it can  be used to find the value of only one unknown quantity.

Suppose, the cost be y and the number of minutes be x.

Then, the slope from the given table can be found by by taking the ratio of the difference of cost and minutes from any two rows of the table as given below,

Slope = (50-40)/(40-20)

=> slope = 1/2

Now, the equation for the line representing the given table can be given as,

(y-40)/(x-20) = 1 / 2

=> y - 40 = 1 / 2 (x - 20)

=> y = x / 2 - 10 + 40

=> y = x / 2 + 30

The y-intercept is given at x = 0.

therefore y-intercept is given as,

y = 0 / 2 + 30

y = 30.

Hence, the slope is given as 1 / 2 and the y-intercept is 30.

The parallelogram is a simple 2D-shaped quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. In a parallelogram, the opposite sides and opposite angles are equal.

Here we have,

The length of the sides of a parallelogram is 2x+10, 5x- 20 and 4x-1

As we know parallel lines of a Parallelogram are equal

Take any two sides as equal and find the missing side

Let the sides with lengths be equal 2x+10, 5x- 20

=> 2x+10 = 5x- 20      

=> 5x - 2x = 20+ 10

=> 3x = 30

=> x = 10  

Therefore, the lengths of the 3 sides are  

2x+10 = 2(10) + 10 = 30

5x- 20 = 5(10) - 20 = 30

4x-1 = 4(10) - 1 = 40 - 1 = 39

What are inequalities on a number line?

Inequalities on a number line allow us to visualise the values that are represented by an inequality.

To represent inequalities on a number line we show the range of numbers by drawing a straight line and indicating the end points with either an open circle or a closed circle.  

An open circle shows it does not include the value.

A closed circle shows it does include the value.

The left endpoint is 3. The right endpoint is 6. Both endpoints are open holes, meaning we do not include them as part of the green shaded solution region. If x is a solution, then the solution can be described as  

3 < X < 6 which converts to the interval notation (3, 6) . The curved parenthesis says "do not include the endpoint".

The dimensions of the rectangle such that the rectangle have the greatest area is length  = 8 and width = 4   .

In the question ,

it is given that ,

a rectangle is inscribed with its base on the x axis , and its upper corner on the parabola y = 12 − x²  ,

let the coordinate of the upper right corner be P(x,y) ,

and A be the area of the rectangle .

the point P lies on the parabola , given y = 12 − x² ,

So,  P = P(x,12−x²)

Due to symmetry of the rectangle,  the width of rectangle is half the distance between P and the y axis ,

that means width = 2x   and length = y .

Area of the rectangle = width × Length

= 2x * y

= 2x (12 − x²)

= 24x - 2x³

To maximize the area we differentiate Area with respect to x ,

we get ,

dA/dx = 24 - 6x²

for critical point dA/dx = 0 ,

24 - 6x²  = 0

6x² = 24

x² = 4

x = ±2 ,

since length cannot be negative ,

So , x = 2 .

to check for maximum and minimum ,we differentiate Area with respect to x,

we get

d²A/dx² = -12x

substituting , x = 2 ,

we get -12 < 0, So , the area is maximum .

hence the width = 2*2 = 4

and length = 12 - 4 = 8

and the maximum area is 32 .

Therefore , The dimensions of the rectangle such that the rectangle have the greatest area is length  = 8 and width = 4   .
