We wish to study the quality of our production line. We take a random sample of 1000 widgets from our line. A quality rating was determined for each of the 1000 widgets, and the average quality rating in the sample was 4. The sample standard deviation was 0.5. Also, 6 of the 1000 widgets were found to be defective.

Estimate the average quality rating for widgets from our production line, and include the uncertainty in this estimate in the form, a ± b.

A. plot the data for the functions f(x) and g(x) on a grid and connect the points. x -2 -1 0 1 2 f(x) 1/9 1/3 1 3 9 x -2 -1 0 1 2 g(x) -4 -2 0 2 4 b. which function could be described as exponential and which as linear? explain. c. if the functions continue with the same pattern, will the function values ever be equal? if so, give estimates for the value of x that will make the function values equals. if not, explain why the function values will never be equal.
