Kindly check attached picture ;

(1003.235 ; 1042.315)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the data:
888, 920, 929, 938, 942, 946, 964, 964, 970, 975, 976, 980, 984, 990, 992, 992, 993, 996, 1000, 1004, 1009, 1012, 1017, 1025, 1030, 1035, 1038, 1047, 1050, 1060, 1061, 1067, 1095, 1095, 1100, 1100, 1125, 1164, 1178, 1260
Using calculator to obtain the mean and standard deviation :
Mean, x = 1022.775
Standard deviation, s = 75.124
Sample size, n = 40
Zcritical at 95% = 1.96
Zcritical at 90% = 1.645
Using the relation :
x ± E
E = error margin = Zcritical * s / sqrt(n)
At 95% ;
Error margin = 1.96 * 75.124/ sqrt(40) = 23.281
At 90% ;
Error margin = 1.645 * 75.124/ sqrt(40) = 19.540
Confidence interval at 95%:
(1022.775 - 23.281) ;(1022.775 + 23.281)
(999.494 ; 1046.056)
Confidence interval at 90%:
(1022.775 - 19.540) ;(1022.775 + 19.540)
(1003.235 ; 1042.315)

Divide the output by the input to get the relationship/constant.
12/2 = 6 30/5 = 6
So...
1 x 6 = 6
and
48 / 6 = 8
9514 1404 393
Answer:
(b) Output 6, Input 8
Step-by-step explanation:
One of the things you can look at is the ratio of output to input. Here, it is constant, which makes things a lot easier
output/input = 12/2 = 30/5 = 66/11 = 6
Then for input 1, output is 1×6 = 6.
For unknown input, we have ...
input × 6 = 48
input = 48/6 = 8
__
The two blanks are ...
input: 8; output 6

Anji bought 4 shirts for $56.80. She later bought a shirt for $19.20. What was the mean cost of all the shirts in dollars?
Answers
Answer:
$15.20
Step-by-step explanation:
When you are asked to find the mean, you would add up the costs of the shirts and then divide them by however many shirts she got.
56.80 + 19.20 = 76
76 ÷ 5 = 15.20
Thus the mean cost is $15.20

Step-by-step explanation:

The average velocities for the given time intervals are,
(i) -8 m/s,
(ii) -12 m/s,
(iii) 4 m/s, and
(iv) 4 m/s. The instantaneous velocity at t = 4 is -8 m/s. The attached graph of s as a function of t is a straight line with slope -8, showing the secant and tangent lines.
a) To find the average velocity in each time interval,
calculate the change in displacement (Δs) divided by the change in time (Δt) within each interval.
s = 12 - 8t + 18
i) [3, 4]:
Δs = s(4) - s(3) = (12 - 8(4) + 18) - (12 - 8(3) + 18) = -8
Δt = 4 - 3 = 1
Average velocity = Δs / Δt = -8 / 1 = -8 m/s
ii) [3.5, 4]:
Δs = s(4) - s(3.5) = (12 - 8(4) + 18) - (12 - 8(3.5) + 18) = -6
Δt = 4 - 3.5 = 0.5
Average velocity = Δs / Δt = -6 / 0.5 = -12 m/s
iii) [4, 5]:
Δs = s(5) - s(4) = (12 - 8(5) + 18) - (12 - 8(4) + 18) = 4
Δt = 5 - 4 = 1
Average velocity = Δs / Δt = 4 / 1 = 4 m/s
iv) [4, 4.5]:
Δs = s(4.5) - s(4) = (12 - 8(4.5) + 18) - (12 - 8(4) + 18) = 2
Δt = 4.5 - 4 = 0.5
Average velocity = Δs / Δt = 2 / 0.5 = 4 m/s
b) To find the instantaneous velocity when t = 4, we'll find the derivative of s with respect to t and then substitute t = 4.
s = 12 - 8t + 18
ds/dt = -8
Instantaneous velocity at t = 4 is equal to the derivative at t = 4:
Instantaneous velocity at t = 4: ds/dt (t=4) = -8 m/s
c) To sketch the graph of s as a function of t and draw the secant lines (average velocities) and the tangent line (instantaneous velocity):
Attached graph.
The graph of s as a function of t is a straight line with a slope of -8 and a y-intercept of 30. At t = 4, the instantaneous velocity is -8 m/s.
Secant lines:
Draw a straight line connecting the points (3, 10) and (4, 2) for the interval [3, 4].
Draw a straight line connecting the points (3.5, 4) and (4, 2) for the interval [3.5, 4].
Draw a straight line connecting the points (4, 2) and (5, 6) for the interval [4, 5].
Draw a straight line connecting the points (4, 2) and (4.5, 4) for the interval [4, 4.5].
Tangent line:
At t = 4, draw a straight line with a slope of -8 and passing through the point (4, 2).
The attached graph will show the secant lines with different slopes as the average velocities in each interval and the tangent line with a slope of -8 as the instantaneous velocity at t = 4.
