A researcher wants to see if birds that build larger nests lay larger eggs. He selects two random samples of nests: one of small

nests and the other of large nests. He weighs one egg from each nest. The data are summarized below:
Small nests Large nestsSample size 60 159Sample mean (g) 37.2 35.6Sample variance 24.7 39.0Find the 95% confidence interval for the difference between the average mass of eggs in small and large nests.

Answer:

95% confidence interval for the difference between the average mass of eggs in small and large nest is between a lower limit of 0.81 and an upper limit of 2.39.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval is given by mean +/- margin of error (E)

Eggs from small nest

Sample size (n1) = 60

Mean = 37.2

Sample variance = 24.7

Eggs from large nest

Sample size (n2) = 159

Mean = 35.6

Sample variance = 39

Pooled variance = [(60-1)24.7 + (159-1)39] ÷ (60+159-2) = 7619.3 ÷ 217 = 35.11

Standard deviation = sqrt(pooled variance) = sqrt(35.11) = 5.93

Difference in mean = 37.2 - 35.6 = 1.6

Degree of freedom = n1+n2 - 2 = 60+159-2 = 217

Confidence level = 95%

Critical value (t) corresponding to 217 degrees of freedom and 95% confidence level is 1.97132

E = t×sd/√(n1+n2) = 1.97132×5.93/√219 = 0.79

Lower limit = mean - E = 1.6 - 0.79 = 0.81

Upper limit = mean + E = 1.6 + 0.79 = 2.39

95% confidence interval for the difference in average mass is (0.81, 2.39)

Arc length is the angle/360 times circumference. The diameter of the unit circle is 2. So the circumference of the unit circle is 2pi, if you use 3.14 for pi, then the circumference is 6.28. So your equation is
x/360 times 6.28=4.2, divide by 6.28, then multiply by 360
x=240.76432
Your answer rounded to the nearest thousanth is 240.764

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (6, -3)and (−6,−5)?
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

y = 1/6x -4

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope

m= ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-5 - -3)/( -6 -6)

   = (-5+3)/ (-6-6)

       = -2/-12

       = 1/6

The slope intercept form is

y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 1/6 x +b

Substitute a point into the equation

-5 = 1/6(-6) +b

-5 = -1+b

Add 1 to each side

-4 = b

y = 1/6x -4
