Complete Question

Suppose that the amount of time teenagers spend weekly working at part-time jobs is normally distributed with a standard deviation of 40 minutes. A random sample of 15 teenagers was drawn and each reported the amount of the time spent at part-time jobs (in minutes). These are listed here 180, 130, 150, 165, 90, 130, 120, 60, 200, 180, 80, 240, 210, 150, 125. Determine the 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean.

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval is  [tex] 127.09  <  \mu <  167.57 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 40[/tex]

   The sample size is  n  = 15

     The data given is   180, 130, 150, 165, 90, 130, 120, 60, 200, 180, 80, 240, 210, 150, 125

Generally the sample mean is mathematically represented as

             [tex]\= x = \frac{ \sum x_i}{n }[/tex]

=>          [tex]\= x = \frac{ 130 + 150 + \cdots + 125 }{ 15 }[/tex]

=>          [tex]\= x = 147.33[/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.96[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *  \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

=>     [tex]E = 1.96  *  \frac{40}{\sqrt{15} }[/tex]

=>     [tex]E =20.24 [/tex]

Generally 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex] 147.33 -20.24<  \mu <  147.33 + 20.24 [/tex]

      [tex] 127.09  <  \mu <  167.57 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The Maclaurin expansion of sin x is:

sin x = ∑ₙ₌₀°° (-1)ⁿ x²ⁿ⁺¹ / (2n+1)!

sin x = x − x³/3! + x⁵/5! − x⁷/7! + ...

Substituting this into the limit:

lim(x→0) [sin(3x) − 3x + ⁹/₂ x³] / x⁵

lim(x→0) [(3x − (3x)³/3! + (3x)⁵/5! − (3x)⁷/7! + ...) − 3x + ⁹/₂ x³] / x⁵

lim(x→0) [(3x − ⁹/₂ x³ + 3⁵x⁵/5! − 3⁷x⁷/7! + ...) − 3x + ⁹/₂ x³] / x⁵

lim(x→0) (3⁵x⁵/5! − 3⁷x⁷/7! + ...) / x⁵

log_6⁡(x+1)+log_6⁡x=1

Answers

This is pretty simple once you figure out the trick.

All you have to do is make the args common.

Meaning [tex]log_{6}(x + 1) + log_{6}(x) = 1[/tex] is nothing but [tex]log_{6}(x(x + 1)) = 1[/tex]

Which is nothing but: [tex]log_{6}(x^2 + x) = 1[/tex].

Now using the scorpion tail method, this equation can be reframed to being: [tex]6 = x^2 + x[/tex]. You bring 6 to the other side and it'll become: [tex]x^2 + x - 6 = 0[/tex]

Factorise it and you get: [tex](x - 2) * (x + 3)[/tex]

Henceforth, the solution would be [tex]2[/tex] and [tex]-3[/tex]. :D
