A number x increased by 6, and then sum is doubled

Ahighway between points a and b has been closed for repairs. an alternative route between there two locations is to travel between a and c and then from c to b what is the value of y and what is the total distance from a to c to b?

What is the interquartile range (iqr) of the data set represented by this box plot?

Arandom sample of n = 25 observations is taken from a n(µ, σ ) population. a 95% confidence interval for µ was calculated to be (42.16, 57.84). the researcher feels that this interval is too wide. you want to reduce the interval to a width at most 12 units. a) for a confidence level of 95%, calculate the smallest sample size needed. b) for a sample size fixed at n = 25, calculate the largest confidence level 100(1 − α)% needed.
