The 96% confidence interval for the mean heights of men is (166.503 cm, 183.497 cm) with a margin of error of 4 cm.

To find the 96% confidence interval (CI) and margin of error (ME) for the mean heights of men, we can use the following formula:

CI = X ± (Z ˣ (s / √n))

where X is the sample mean, Z is the Z-score corresponding to the desired confidence level (96% corresponds to a Z-score of 1.750 in a two-tailed test), s is the sample standard deviation, and n is the sample size.

Given that n = 28, X = 175 cm, and s = 21 cm, we can calculate the CI and ME:

CI = 175 ± (1.750 ˣ (21 / √28))

CI = 175 ± 8.497

CI = (166.503, 183.497)

ME = (183.497 - 175) / 2 = 4

Interpreting the results, we can say with 96% confidence that the mean height of men is between 166.503 cm and 183.497 cm. The margin of error is 4 cm, indicating the range within which the true population mean is likely to fall.

The equivalent class of h, denoted by [h], is the set of all functions that have the same sum of values of the first two inputs as h [1, 2].That is, [h] = E2 = {[1, 2, x, x − 1] : x ∈ A} = {(1,2,1,0),(1,2,1,1),(1,2,1,2),(1,2,1,3),(1,2,2,0),(1,2,2,1),(1,2,2,2),(1,2,2,3),(1,2,3,0),(1,2,3,1),(1,2,3,2).

(a) Proving that R is an equivalence relation on FTo prove that R is an equivalence relation on F, it is required to show that it satisfies three conditions:i. Reflexive: ∀f ∈ F, fRf.ii. Symmetric: ∀f, g ∈ F, if fRg then gRf.iii. Transitive: ∀f, g, h ∈ F, if fRg and gRh then fRh.To prove R is an equivalence relation, the following three conditions must be satisfied.1. Reflexive: Let f ∈ F. Since ƒ (1) + ƒ (2) = ƒ (1) + ƒ (2), fRf is reflexive.2. Symmetric: Let f, g ∈ F such that fRg. Then ƒ (1) + ƒ (2) = g(1) + g(2). It means that g(1) + g(2) = ƒ (1) + ƒ (2) or gRf. Hence, R is symmetric.3. Transitive: Let f, g, h ∈ F such that fRg and gRh. Then,ƒ (1) + ƒ (2) = g (1) + g (2) and g (1) + g (2) = h (1) + h (2)Adding the above two equations,ƒ (1) + ƒ (2) + g (1) + g (2) = g (1) + g (2) + h (1) + h (2).This implies that f(1) + f(2) = h(1) + h(2) or fRh. Thus, R is transitive.Since R is reflexive, symmetric, and transitive, it is an equivalence relation on F.(b) Calculation of the equivalence classesThere are four equivalence classes, one for each possible sum of ƒ (1) and ƒ (2). They are as follows:E1 = {[1, 1, x, x] : x ∈ A}E2 = {[1, 2, x, x − 1] : x ∈ A}E3 = {[1, 3, x, x − 2] : x ∈ A}E4 = {[1, 4, x, x − 3] : x ∈ A}(c) Calculation of the elements in [h]The equivalence class [h] has four elements.Explanation:The set of all functions f from A to A is given byF = {(1,1,1,1), (1,1,1,2), (1,1,1,3), (1,1,1,4), (1,1,2,1), (1,1,2,2), (1,1,2,3), (1,1,2,4), (1,1,3,1), (1,1,3,2), (1,1,3,3), (1,1,3,4), (1,1,4,1), (1,1,4,2), (1,1,4,3), (1,1,4,4), (1,2,1,0), (1,2,1,1), (1,2,1,2), (1,2,1,3), (1,2,2,0), (1,2,2,1), (1,2,2,2), (1,2,2,3), (1,2,3,0), (1,2,3,1), (1,2,3,2), (1,2,3,3), (1,2,4,0), (1,2,4,1), (1,2,4,2), (1,2,4,3), (1,3,1,-1), (1,3,1,0), (1,3,1,1), (1,3,1,2), (1,3,2,-1), (1,3,2,0), (1,3,2,1), (1,3,2,2), (1,3,3,-1), (1,3,3,0), (1,3,3,1), (1,3,3,2), (1,3,4,-1), (1,3,4,0), (1,3,4,1), (1,3,4,2), (1,4,1,-2), (1,4,1,-1), (1,4,1,0), (1,4,1,1), (1,4,2,-2), (1,4,2,-1), (1,4,2,0), (1,4,2,1), (1,4,3,-2), (1,4,3,-1), (1,4,3,0), (1,4,3,1), (1,4,4,-2), (1,4,4,-1), (1,4,4,0), (1,4,4,1), (2,1,1,1), (2,1,1,2), (2,1,1,3), (2,1,1,4), (2,1,2,1), (2,1,2,2), (2,1,2,3), (2,1,2,4), (2,1,3,1), (2,1,3,2), (2,1,3,3), (2,1,3,4), (2,1,4,1), (2,1,4,2), (2,1,4,3), (2,1,4,4), (2,2,1,0), (2,2,1,1), (2,2,1,2), (2,2,1,3), (2,2,2,0), (2,2,2,1), (2,2,2,2), (2,2,2,3), (2,2,3,0), (2,2,3,1), (2,2,3,2), (2,2,3,3), (2,2,4,0), (2,2,4,1), (2,2,4,2), (2,2,4,3), (2,3,1,-1), (2,3,1,0), (2,3,1,1), (2,3,1,2), (2,3,2,-1), (2,3,2,0), (2,3,2,1), (2,3,2,2), (2,3,3,-1), (2,3,3,0), (2,3,3,1), (2,3,3,2), (2,3,4,-1), (2,3,4,0), (2,3,4,1), (2,3,4,2), (2,4,1,-2), (2,4,1,-1), (2,4,1,0), (2,4,1,1), (2,4,2,-2), (2,4,2,-1), (2,4,2,0), (2,4,2,1), (2,4,3,-2), (2,4,3,-1), (2,4,3,0), (2,4,3,1), (2,4,4,-2), (2,4,4,-1), (2,4,4,0), (2,4,4,1), (3,1,1,2), (3,1,1,3), (3,1,1,4), (3,1,2,1), (3,1,2,2), (3,1,2,3), (3,1,2,4), (3,1,3,1), (3,1,3,2), (3,1,3,3), (3,1,3,4), (3,1,4,1), (3,1,4,2), (3,1,4,3), (3,1,4,4), (3,2,1,1), (3,2,1,2), (3,2,1,3), (3,2,1,4), (3,2,2,1), (3,2,2,2), (3,2,2,3), (3,2,2,4), (3,2,3,1), (3,2,3,2), (3,2,3,3), (3,2,3,4), (3,2,4,1), (3,2,4,2), (3,2,4,3), (3,2,4,4), (3,3,1,0), (3,3,1,1), (3,3,1,2), (3,3,1,3), (3,3,2,0), (3,3,2,1), (3,3,2,2), (3,3,2,3), (3,3,3,0), (3,3,3,1), (3,3,3,2), (3,3,3,3), (3,3,4,0), (3,3,4,1), (3,3,4,2), (3,3,4,3), (3,4,1,-1), (3,4,1,0), (3,4,1,1), (3,4,1,2), (3,4,2,-1), (3,4,2,0), (3,4,2,1), (3,4,2,2), (3,4,3,-1), (3,4,3,0), (3,4,3,1), (3,4,3,2), (3,4,4,-1), (3,4,4,0), (3,4,4,1), (3,4,4,2), (4,1,1,3), (4,1,1,4), (4,1,2,1), (4,1,2,2), (4,1,2,3), (4,1,2,4), (4,1,3,1), (4,1,3,2), (4,1,3,3), (4,1,3,4), (4,1,4,1), (4,1,4,2), (4,1,4,3), (4,1,4,4), (4,2,1,2), (4,2,1,3), (4,2,1,4), (4,2,2,1), (4,2,2,2), (4,2,2,3), (4,2,2,4), (4,2,3,1), (4,2,3,2), (4,2,3,3), (4,2,3,4), (4,2,4,1), (4,2,4,2), (4,2,4,3), (4,2,4,4), (4,3,1,1), (4,3,1,2), (4,3,1,3), (4,3,1,4), (4,3,2,1), (4,3,2,2), (4,3,2,3), (4,3,2,4), (4,3,3,1), (4,3,3,2), (4,3,3,3), (4,3,3,4), (4,3,4,1), (4,3,4,2), (4,3,4,3), (4,3,4,4), (4,4,1,0), (4,4,1,1), (4,4,1,2), (4,4,1,3), (4,4,2,0), (4,4,2,1), (4,4,2,2), (4,4,2,3), (4,4,3,0), (4,4,3,1), (4,4,3,2), (4,4,3,3), (4,4,4,0), (4,4,4,1), (4,4,4,2), (4,4,4,3)}h = {(1, 2), (2, 3), (3, 4), (4, 1)}The equivalent class of h, denoted by [h], is the set of all functions that have the same sum of values of the first two inputs as h [1, 2].That is, [h] = E2 = {[1, 2, x, x − 1] : x ∈ A} = {(1,2,1,0),(1,2,1,1),(1,2,1,2),(1,2,1,3),(1,2,2,0),(1,2,2,1),(1,2,2,2),(1,2,2,3),(1,2,3,0),(1,2,3,1),(1,2,3,2),(

In the given regression model Y₁ = ßX₁ + U₁, several assumptions are made. These include the conditional expectation of U₁ given X₁ being constant (c), the conditional expectation of U given X being constant (o² < ∞), and the expected value of X₂ being zero.

The regression model Y₁ = ßX₁ + U₁ represents a linear relationship between the dependent variable Y₁ and the independent variable X₁. The parameter ß represents the slope of the regression line, indicating the change in Y₁ for a one-unit change in X₁. The term U₁ represents the error term, capturing the unexplained variation in Y₁ that is not accounted for by X₁.

The assumption E[U|X] = o² < ∞ states that the conditional expectation of the error term U given X is constant, with a finite variance. This assumption implies that the error term is homoscedastic, meaning that the variance of the error term is the same for all values of X.

The assumption E[X₂] = 0 indicates that the expected value of the independent variable X₂ is zero. This assumption is relevant when considering the effects of other independent variables in the regression model.

The value of 2π times the integral from 3 to 5 of 2√(x) times √(1 + 1/x) dx is approximately 63.286.

The surface area generated when the curve y = 2√(x) for 3 ≤ x ≤ 5 is revolved about the x-axis can be found using the formula for surface area of revolution. The surface area is equal to 2π times the integral from x = 3 to x = 5 of 2√(x) times √(1 + (dy/dx)^2) dx.

We compute the derivative of y with respect to x: dy/dx = 1/√(x). Next, we calculate the square root of the sum of 1 and the square of the derivative: √(1 + (dy/dx)^2) = √(1 + 1/x).

Now, we substitute these expressions into the surface area formula: 2π times the integral from 3 to 5 of 2√(x) times √(1 + 1/x) dx.

Evaluating this integral will give us the exact value of the surface area. In the given integral, we are integrating the product of two functions, 2√(x) and √(1 + 1/x), with respect to x over the interval [3, 5].

To evaluate this integral, we can first simplify the expression inside the square root by multiplying the terms under the square root. This gives us √(x(1 + 1/x)), which simplifies to √(x + 1).

We then multiply this simplified expression by 2√(x). Integrating this product over the interval [3, 5] gives us the area between the two curves. Finally, multiplying this area by 2π gives us the result of approximately 63.286.

Roger will have enough money to buy the computer system that costs $1060 after one year.

The balance in Roger's account after one year can be calculated using the continuous compounding formula Alt) = P * e^(rt), where P is the initial amount, r is the interest rate, and t is the time in years. In this case, P = $1000, r = 0.056, and t = 1. Substituting these values, we get Alt) = $1000 * e^(0.056 * 1) ≈ $1061.70. Therefore, Roger will have enough money to buy the computer system.

However, if Roger chooses the other bank with an interest rate of 5.9% compounded monthly, we need to use a different formula. The balance in the account after one year can be calculated using the compound interest formula Alt) = P * (1 + r/n)^(nt), where n is the number of times interest is compounded per year. In this case, P = $1000, r = 0.059, n = 12, and t = 1. Substituting these values, we get Alt) = $1000 * (1 + 0.059/12)^(12 * 1) ≈ $1062.95. Therefore, the second bank offers a slightly better deal as the balance in Roger's account will be higher.

The derivative of T(p) with respect to p at p = 7 is T'(7) = -2/3. This means that for every additional practice session after 7, the time taken to perform the task decreases by 2/3 of a minute.

To find T'(7), we need to take the derivative of T(p) with respect to p and evaluate it at p = 7. Applying the power rule for derivatives, we have:

T'(p) = d/dp [36(p+1)^(-1/3)]

= -1/3 * 36 * (p+1)^(-1/3 - 1)

= -12(p+1)^(-4/3)

Substituting p = 7 into the derivative expression, we get:

T'(7) = -12(7+1)^(-4/3)

= -12(8)^(-4/3)

= -12 * 1/2

= -2/3

Therefore, T'(7) = -2/3. This means that for every additional practice session after 7, the time taken to perform the task decreases by 2/3 of a minute.

To find the value of c, we'll solve the given differential equation and use the provided initial conditions. Answer: the value of c is 3 (an integer).

The differential equation is:

d²y/dt² - 4(dy/dt) + 13y = 0

The characteristic equation associated with this differential equation is:

r² - 4r + 13 = 0

Solving this quadratic equation, we find the roots of the characteristic equation:

r = (4 ± √(16 - 52)) / 2

r = (4 ± √(-36)) / 2

r = (4 ± 6i) / 2

r = 2 ± 3i

The general solution to the differential equation is:

y(t) = c₁e^(2t)cos(3t) + c₂e^(2t)sin(3t)

Using the initial condition y(0) = 1:

1 = c₁e^(0)cos(0) + c₂e^(0)sin(0)

1 = c₁

Using the second initial condition y(π/6) = e^(π/3):

e^(π/3) = c₁e^(2(π/6))cos(3(π/6)) + c₂e^(2(π/6))sin(3(π/6))

e^(π/3) = c₁e^(π/3)cos(π/2) + c₂e^(π/3)sin(π/2)

e^(π/3) = c₁(1)(0) + c₂(1)

e^(π/3) = c₂

Therefore, we have c₁ = 1 and c₂ = e^(π/3).

Now, let's find the value of c using the given equation (y(π/12))² = 2ec(π/6):

(y(π/12))² = 2ec(π/6)

[(c₁e^(2(π/12))cos(3(π/12))) + (c₂e^(2(π/12))sin(3(π/12)))]² = 2ec(π/6)

[(e^(π/6)cos(π/4)) + (e^(π/6)sin(π/4))]² = 2ec(π/6)

[(e^(π/6))(√2/2 + √2/2)]² = 2ec(π/6)

(e^(π/6))² = 2ec(π/6)

e^(π/3) = 2ec(π/6)

Comparing the left and right sides, we can see that c = 3.

Therefore, the value of c is 3 (an integer).

An ellipse is a set of all points in a plane, such that the sum of the distances from two fixed points remains constant. These two fixed points are known as foci of the ellipse. The center of an ellipse is the midpoint of the major axis and the minor axis. The major axis is the longest diameter of the ellipse, and the minor axis is the shortest diameter of the ellipse.

(1) The given equation of the ellipse is[tex]4x² + 9y² - 8x + 18y - 23 = 0[/tex]

To find the center, we need to convert the given equation to the standard form, i.e., [tex]x²/a² + y²/b² = 1[/tex]

Divide both sides by[tex]-23 4x²/-23 + 9y²/-23 - 8x/-23 + 18y/-23 + 1 = 0[/tex]

Simplify [tex]4x²/(-23/4) + 9y²/(-23/9) - 8x/(-23/4) + 18y/(-23/9) + 1 = 0[/tex]

Compare with the standard form,[tex]x²/a² + y²/b² = 1[/tex]

The center of the ellipse is (h, k), where h = 8/(-23/4)

= -1.3913,

and k = -18/(-23/9)

= 1.5652.

Therefore, the center of the ellipse is (-1.3913, 1.5652).

(2) To find the equation of the major axis, we need to compare the lengths of a and b. a² = -23/4,

[tex]a = ±(23/4)i[/tex]

b² = -23/9,

[tex]b = ±(23/3)i[/tex]

Since a > b, the major axis is parallel to the x-axis, and its equation is y = k. Therefore, the equation of the major axis is y = 1.5652. Similarly, the equation of the minor axis is x = h.

(3) The vertices of the ellipse lie on the major axis. The distance between the center and the vertices is equal to a. The distance between the center and the major axis is b. Therefore, the distance between the center and the vertices is given by c² = a² - b² c²

= (-23/4) - (-23/9) c

[tex]= ±(23/36)i[/tex]

The vertices are given by (h ± c, k) Therefore, the vertices are [tex](-1.3913 + (23/36)i, 1.5652) and (-1.3913 - (23/36)i, 1.5652).[/tex]

(4) The co-vertices of the ellipse lie on the minor axis. The distance between the center and the co-vertices is equal to b. The distance between the center and the major axis is a. Therefore, the distance between the center and the co-vertices is given by d² = b² - a² d²

[tex]= (-23/9) - (-23/4) d[/tex]

[tex]= ±(5/6)i[/tex]

The co-vertices are given by (h, k ± d)

Therefore, the co-vertices are[tex](-1.3913, 1.5652 + (5/6)i)[/tex] and [tex](-1.3913, 1.5652 - (5/6)i).[/tex]

(5) To find the foci of the ellipse, we need to use the formula c² = a² - b² The distance between the center and the foci is equal to c. [tex]c² = (-23/4) - (-23/9) c = ±(23/36)i[/tex]

The foci are given by (h ± ci, k)

Therefore, the foci are[tex](-1.3913 + (23/36)i, 1.5652)[/tex] and[tex](-1.3913 - (23/36)i, 1.5652).[/tex]

Finally, we can sketch the ellipse with the center (-1.3913, 1.5652), major axis y = 1.5652, and minor axis x = -1.3913. We can use the vertices and co-vertices to get an approximate shape of the ellipse.

Given, the function is f(x) = 4x² - 5 and the interval is [3, t).

We have to find the average rate of change of f(x) on the interval [3, t).

The average rate of change of f(x) on the interval [a, b] is given by:

(f(b) - f(a))/(b-a)

To find the average rate of change of f(x) on the interval [3, t), we have to put a = 3 and b = t in the above formula.

Average rate of change = (f(t) - f(3))/(t-3)

Average rate of change = (4t² - 5 - 4(3)² + 5)/(t-3)

Average rate of change = (4t² - 32)/(t-3)

The size relationship between the mean and the median of a data set can vary.

The mean and median are both measures of central tendency used to describe the center or average value of a data set.

However, they capture different aspects of the data and can have different relationships depending on the distribution of the data.

The mean is calculated by summing up all the values in the data set and dividing by the total number of values.

If the data set has an even number of values, the median is the average of the two middle values.

The relationship between the mean and median depends on the shape of the distribution. Here are some possibilities:

If the distribution is symmetric and bell-shaped (like a normal distribution), the mean and median will be approximately equal.

If the distribution is negatively skewed (skewed to the left), with a few small values pulling the tail to the left, the mean will be smaller than the median.

Therefore, the size relationship between the mean and the median is not fixed and can vary depending on the distribution of the data.

The value of the critical correlation coefficient is approximately 0.342.

The main answer is that at an alpha = 0.01 significance level with a sample size of 50, the value of the critical correlation coefficient is approximately 0.342.

To explain further:

The critical correlation coefficient is a value used in hypothesis testing to determine the rejection region for a correlation coefficient. In this case, we are given an alpha level of 0.01, which represents the maximum probability of making a Type I error (incorrectly rejecting a true null hypothesis).

To find the critical correlation coefficient, we need to refer to a table or use statistical software. By looking up the critical value associated with an alpha level of 0.01 and a sample size of 50 in a table of critical values for the correlation coefficient (such as the table for Pearson's correlation coefficient), we find that the critical correlation coefficient is approximately 0.342.

Therefore, if the calculated correlation coefficient falls outside the range of -0.342 to 0.342, we would reject the null hypothesis at the 0.01 significance level.

A = 2πrl + 4πr² + 2πr²

A = 2πrl + 6πr²

(iii) V = (A - 6πr²)r + (4/3)πr³

(iv) we can substitute this value into the expression for V: V = (40 - 6πr²)r + (4/3)πr³

(v) using Newton's method with an initial guess of r₀ = 2, we can iterate the following formula until we reach the desired accuracy: rₙ₊₁ = rₙ - f(rₙ)/f'(rₙ)

(i) The volume V of the storage tank can be expressed as the sum of the volume of the cylindrical part and the volume of the two hemispheres at the ends. The volume of a cylinder is given by πr²l, and the volume of a hemisphere is (2/3)πr³.

Therefore, the expression for the volume V is:

V = πr²l + 2(2/3)πr³

V = πr²l + (4/3)πr³

(ii) The surface area A of the storage tank consists of the lateral surface area of the cylinder, the curved surface area of the two hemispheres, and the areas of the two circular bases.

The lateral surface area of the cylinder is given by 2πrl, the curved surface area of each hemisphere is 2πr², and the area of each circular base is πr². Therefore, the expression for the surface area A is:

A = 2πrl + 2(2πr²) + 2(πr²)

A = 2πrl + 4πr² + 2πr²

A = 2πrl + 6πr²

(iii) To express V as a function of r and A, we can rearrange the equation for A to solve for l:

2πrl = A - 6πr²

l = (A - 6πr²) / (2πr)

Substituting this value of l into the expression for V:

V = πr²l + (4/3)πr³

V = πr²[(A - 6πr²) / (2πr)] + (4/3)πr³

V = (A - 6πr²)r + (4/3)πr³

(iv) Given the constraint A = 40 square metres, we can substitute this value into the expression for V:

V = (40 - 6πr²)r + (4/3)πr³

(v) To find an approximation for the value of r that produces a volume of 10 cubic metres, we can use Newton's method. First, let's define the function f(r) = V - 10:

f(r) = [(40 - 6πr²)r + (4/3)πr³] - 10

Next, we need to find the derivative of f(r) with respect to r:

f'(r) = (40 - 6πr²) + (4/3)π(3r²)

f'(r) = 40 - 6πr² + 4πr²

f'(r) = 40 - 2πr²

Now, using Newton's method with an initial guess of r₀ = 2, we can iterate the following formula until we reach the desired accuracy:

rₙ₊₁ = rₙ - f(rₙ)/f'(rₙ)

We can continue this iteration until the value of r stops changing significantly.

The area under the curve -2y = x from x = 5 to x = t can be evaluated for different values of t. For t = 10, the area is 40 square units, and for t = 100, the area is 4,900 square units. The total area under the curve from x = 5 to x = 100 is 24,750 square units.

To find the area under the curve, we can integrate the equation -2y = x with respect to x from 5 to t. Integrating -2y = x gives us y = -x/2 + C, where C is a constant of integration. To find the value of C, we substitute the point (5, 0) into the equation, which gives us 0 = -5/2 + C. Solving for C, we get C = 5/2.

Now we have the equation of the curve as y = -x/2 + 5/2. To find the area under the curve, we integrate this equation from 5 to t with respect to x. Integrating y = -x/2 + 5/2 gives us the antiderivative as -x^2/4 + (5/2)x + D, where D is another constant of integration.

To find the area between x = 5 and x = t, we evaluate the antiderivative at x = t and subtract the value at x = 5. The resulting expression will give us the area under the curve. For t = 10, the area is 40 square units, and for t = 100, the area is 4,900 square units. To find the total area under the curve from x = 5 to x = 100, we subtract the area for t = 5 (which is 0) from the area for t = 100. The total area is 24,750 square units.

Using the initial condition f(0) = 2, we can substitute x = 0 into the equation above, yielding -2sin(0) + C₂(0) + C₃ = 2. Simplifying, we find C₃ = 2. Next, we differentiate -2sin(2x) + C₂x + 2 with respect to x to find the first derivative, f'(x). We obtain -4cos(2x) + C₂.

Using the initial condition f'(0) = -3, we can substitute x = 0 into the equation above, resulting in -4cos(0) + C₂ = -3. Simplifying, we find C₂ = -3. Finally, we substitute C₂ = -3 and C₃ = 2 into our equation for f(x), giving us f(x) = -2sin(2x) - 3x + 2. To find f(1/3), we substitute x = 1/3 into the equation above, giving us f(1/3) ≈ -2sin(2/3) - 3/3 + 2. The expression yields f(1/3) ≈ 1.303.

a) Consider the function f(x) = 2x³ / (x² + 5x - 14). This function is continuous on its domain, except for any values of x that make the denominator equal to zero. To find these points, we set the denominator equal to zero and solve the quadratic equation x² + 5x - 14 = 0. By factoring or using the quadratic formula, we find the roots x = 2 and x = -7. Therefore, the function f(x) is discontinuous at x = 2 and x = -7, as the denominator becomes zero at these points.

b) For the piecewise function f(x) = 2 - x for x < 4 and f(x) = -3x + 10 for x ≥ 4, we need to examine the continuity at the boundary point x = 4. We check if the left and right limits exist and are equal at x = 4. Taking the limit as x approaches 4 from the left, we have lim(x→4-) f(x) = 2 - 4 = -2. Taking the limit as x approaches 4 from the right, we have lim(x→4+) f(x) = -3(4) + 10 = -2. Since both limits are equal, the function is continuous at x = 4.the function f(x) = 2x³ / (x² + 5x - 14) is discontinuous at x = 2 and x = -7 due to division by zero.

Based on the survey of 800 adults, we can be 95% confident that the proportion of all adults in the region who never clothes-shop online falls within the range of 0.400 to 0.460. This means that between 40% and 46% of all adults in the region are estimated to never shop for clothes online, based on the given sample. The margin of error is approximately ±0.030.

To find the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all adults in the region who never clothes-shop online, we can use the formula:

CI = p ± Z * sqrt((p * (1 - p)) / n)

where p is the sample proportion, Z is the Z-score corresponding to the desired confidence level (95% in this case), and n is the sample size. Given that 43% of the 800 respondents never clothes-shop online, we can calculate p = 0.43. The Z-score for a 95% confidence level is approximately 1.96.

Plugging these values into the formula, we have:

CI = 0.43 ± 1.96 * sqrt((0.43 * (1 - 0.43)) / 800)

Calculating this expression, we get:

CI = 0.43 ± 1.96 * sqrt(0.246 * 0.754 / 800)

  = 0.43 ± 1.96 * sqrt(0.00023068)

  = 0.43 ± 1.96 * 0.015183

Rounding to three decimal places, we have:
