Humans have a normal body temperature of 98.6 f a temperature, x, that differs from normal by at least 2°f is considered unhealthy. which inequality could be used to determine whether a temperature is unhealthy?

98.6 - x ≥ 2 or x - 98.6 ≥ 2  

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the normal temperature = 98.6° F

Also, the temperature that differs from normal by at least 2°F is considered unhealthy.

If the temperature is x degree F,

Then, we have two conditions,

Condition 1 : x > 98.6,

The difference between 98.6 and x = x - 98.6

Then the inequality be,

x - 98.6 ≥ 2

Condition 2 : x < 98.6

The difference between 98.6 and x = 98.6 - x

Then the inequality be,

98.6 - x ≥ 2

two data sets with the same median will not have the same varaibility

step-by-step explanation:

d. 24+-0.114

step-by-step explanation:

the question requires us to calculate the approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean number of ounces of ketchup per bottle in the sample given the following statistics;

sample mean = 24

standard deviation, σ = 0.4

sample size , n = 49

the confidence interval for a population mean is calculated using the formula;

sample mean ± z-score*(σ/sqrt(n))

the z-score associated with a 95% confidence interval, from the standard normal tables, is;

1.96

substituting these values into the formula;

24 ± 1.96*(0.4/7)

= 24 ± 0.112

from the alternatives given, choice d is closest to the above expression;
