Answer:250 N
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
mass of skater on left side
mass of skater on right side
If the skater on the left experience a force of
If they push against each other then they must experience an equal force according to newtons third law
Thus
Thus skater on right experience force
Answer:
The 80% confidence interval for the the population mean nitrate concentration is (0.144, 0.186).
Critical value t=1.318
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to calculate a 80% confidence interval for the mean.
The population standard deviation is not known, so we have to estimate it from the sample standard deviation and use a t-students distribution to calculate the critical value.
The sample mean is M=0.165.
The sample size is N=25.
When σ is not known, s divided by the square root of N is used as an estimate of σM:
The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:
The t-value for a 80% confidence interval and 24 degrees of freedom is t=1.318.
The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:
Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:
The 80% confidence interval for the population mean nitrate concentration is (0.144, 0.186).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x | y
-------
1 5
5 10
9 15
13 20
This one is linear because as x goes up by the same number so does y. So the ratio of difference of y to difference of x is the same per pair of points.
So a linear equation in slope-intercept form is y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
To find the slope, I'm going to line up the points vertically and subtract, then put 2nd difference over 1st difference. Like so,
( 1 , 5)
-( 5 , 10)
----------------
-4 -5
So the slope is 5/4 which makes sense since the y's are going up by 5 each time and the x's are going up by 4 each time.
So we have m=5/4. Let's plug that into our y=mx+b.
y=5/4 x+b
To find b, we need to use y=5/4 x+b along with one of the given points.
Choose; it doesn't matter. I like (1,5) I guess.
y=5/4 x +b with (1,5)
5=5/4 (1)+b
5=5/4 +b
Subtract 5/4 on both sides:
5-5/4=b
20/4-5/4=b (Found a common denominator)
15/4=b
The y-intercept is 15/4 so b=15/4.
So the equation for the line in slope-intercept form is y=5/4 x +15/4.
