Answer:

The next number is $4$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$256, 196, 144, 100, 64, 36, 16,...x$

we know that

$256-196=60$

$196-144=52=60-8$

$144-100=44=52-8$

$100-64=36=44-8$

$64-36=28=36-8$

$36-16=20=28-8$

therefore

The next number is equal to

$16-x=20-8$ ------> solve for x

$16-x=12$

$x=16-12=4$

Answer: $(15.263,\ 17.537)$

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given information, we have

Sample size : n= 50

$\overline{x}=16.40$

$s=4.00$

Since population standard deviation is unknown, so we use t-test.

Critical value for 95 percent confidence interval :

$t_{n-1,\alpha/2}=t_{49, 0.025}= 2.009575\approx2.010$

Confidence interval : $\overline{x}\pm t_{n-1, \alpha/2}\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$

$16.40\pm (2.010)\dfrac{4}{\sqrt{50}}\\\\=16.40\pm1.13702770415\\\\=16.40\pm1.1370\\\\=(16.40-1.1370,\ 16.40+1.1370)\\\\=(15.263,\ 17.537)$

Required 95% confidence interval : $(15.263,\ 17.537)$
