Answer: = ( 2.73, 3.07)

Therefore at 90% confidence interval (a,b) = ( 2.73, 3.07)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean gain x = 2.9

Standard deviation r = 0.6

Number of samples n = 35

Confidence interval = 90%

z(at 95% confidence) = 1.645

Substituting the values we have;

2.9+/-1.645(0.6/√35)

2.9+/-1.645(0.1014)

2.9+/-0.167

2.8+/-0.17

= ( 2.73, 3.07)

Therefore at 90% confidence interval (a,b) = ( 2.73, 3.07)

There are a couple of ways you can solve this. You can write it out like
(K-3)(K-3)(K-3)(K-3)(K-3)(K-3)(K-3)
And pretty much use the foil method
Or you can use the binomial theorem (google it if you dont know)
The solution should be:
(K^7) - 21(k^6) + 189(k^5) - 945(k^4) + 2835(k^3) - 5103(k^2) + 5103k - 2187

Jude says that the volume of a square pyramid with base edges of 7 in and a height of 7 in is equal to the volume of a cylinder
irakobra [83]

Answer:

Jude is not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a square pyramid is given as:

V = a^2\frac{h}{3}

where a = base edge and h = height

Hence, the volume of the square pyramid with base edge of 7 in and height  of 7 in is:

V = 7^2*\frac{7}{3}

V = 114.3 in^3 ≅ 114 in^3

The volume of a cylinder is given as:

V = \pi r^2h

where r = radius and h = height

Hence, the volume of a cylinder with radius of 7 in and height of 7 in is:

V = \pi *7^2*7

V = 1077.57 in^3 ≅ 1078 in^3

Since their volumes are not equal, Jude is not correct.
