Larry graphs the inequality x less-than negative 5 using the steps below. Step 1: Draw a number line, and place an open circle at –5. A number line going from negative 10 to 0. An open circle is at negative 5. Step 2: Shade to the left of –5 to represent less than –5. A number line going from negative 10 to 0. An open circle is at negative 5. Everything to the left of the circle is shaded. Step 3: Check work by substitution. x = negative 5 Negative 5 less-than negative 5 False Larry concludes that he must have shaded the number line in the wrong direction. Which best describes the situation? Larry’s graph is incorrect. He should have used a closed circle at –5. Larry’s graph is incorrect. He should have shaded to the right of –5 because the numbers less than –5 are to the right of –5. Larry’s graph is correct. He should have checked his work using a number to the left of –5. Larry’s graph is correct. He should have checked his work using a number to the right of –5.

Is fgh ~ jkl? if so, identify the similarity postulate or theorem that applies.

(20 points) a bank has been receiving complaints from real estate agents that their customers have been waiting too long for mortgage confirmations. the bank prides itself on its mortgage application process and decides to investigate the claims. the bank manager takes a random sample of 20 customers whose mortgage applications have been processed in the last 6 months and finds the following wait times (in days): 5, 7, 22, 4, 12, 9, 9, 14, 3, 6, 5, 15, 10, 17, 12, 10, 9, 4, 10, 13 assume that the random variable x measures the number of days a customer waits for mortgage processing at this bank, and assume that x is normally distributed. 2a. find the sample mean of this data (x ě…). 2b. find the sample variance of x. find the variance of x ě…. for (c), (d), and (e), use the appropriate t-distribution 2c. find the 90% confidence interval for the population mean (îľ). 2d. test the hypothesis that îľ is equal to 7 at the 95% confidence level. (should you do a one-tailed or two-tailed test here? ) 2e. what is the approximate p-value of this hypothesis?
