Answer:

6.15 kilograms of pears

Step-by-step explanation:

The total is 8.2 kilograms. Since 1/4 of the weight is apples, we know that 3/4 of the weight is pears. So we multiply 8.2*0.75.

8.2*0.75=6.15

Therefore, the farmer sold 6.15 kilograms of pears at the farmer's market.

Given the coordinates A (5, 7, -2) and B (8, 3, 4) in 3d space, express AB as:

lys-0071 [83]

The vector AB is found by subtracting the coordinates of point B from the coordinates of point A => (8, 3, 4) - (5, 7, - 2)

(8, 3, 4) - (5, 7, - 2) = (3, - 4, 6)

=>

a) a 3 x 1 column =

| 3 |
| -4 |
| 6 |

b) xi + yj + zk

=> 3i - 4j + 6k

Past experience has indicated that the breaking strength of yarn used in manufacturing drapery material is normally distributed

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

95% two-sided confidence interval on the true mean breaking strength is (94.8cm, 99.2cm)

Step-by-step explanation:

Our sample size is 11.

The first step to solve this problem is finding our degrees of freedom, that is, the sample size subtracted by 1. So

$df = 11-1 = 10$ .

Then, we need to subtract one by the confidence level $\alpha$ and divide by 2. So:

$\frac{1-0.95}{2} = \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.025$

Now, we need our answers from both steps above to find a value T in the t-distribution table. So, with 10 and 0.025 in the two-sided t-distribution table, we have $T = 1.812$

Now, we find the standard deviation of the sample. This is the division of the standard deviation by the square root of the sample size. So

$s = \frac{4}{\sqrt{11}} = 1.2060$

Now, we multiply T and s

$M = Ts = 1.812*1.2060 = 2.19/tex]For the lower end of the interval, we subtract the sample mean by M. So the lower end of the interval here is[tex]L = 97 - 2.19 = 94.81 = 94.8$ cm
