The number of days that homes stay on the market before they sell in Seattle is bell-shaped with a mean equal to 8 days. Further, 95 percent of all homes are on the market between 2 and 14 days. Based on this information, what is the standard deviation for the number of days that houses stay on the market in Seattle?

0.5 < x < 3

or (0.5, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

-16t² + 56t + 2 = 26

Subtract both sides by 26

-16t² + 56t + 2 = 26

                 -26   -26

-16t² + 56t - 24 = 0

Divide both sides by -8 to simplify

(-16t² + 56t - 24)/8 = 0/8

2t² - 7t + 3 = 0

Factor

(x - 3)(2x - 1) = 0

Do this to find the x's

x - 3 = 0

 + 3  +3

x = 3

2x - 1 = 0

    + 1  + 1

2x = 1

2x/2 = 1/2

x = 0.5

0.5 < x < 3

This means the intervals will have to be between 0.5 and 3 seconds
