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)

Answer:

  =

Step-by-step explanation:

A half rest is 2 beats, a quarter rest is 1 beat, so the rests on the left total 3 beats.

The half note on the right is normally 2 beats, but the dot adds half-again that amount, so 1 more beat. The dotted half note on the right is 3 beats.

Both represent 3 beats, so their beat counts are "equal."

If f is a continuous function such that the integral from 1 to 4 of f of x, dx equals 10, evaluate the integral from 2 to 8 of 2
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer: 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Since integral from 1 to 4 of f(x) =10

To evaluate integral from 2 to 8 of 2 times f(2x), using substitution method

Let U = 2x, dU = 2dx, dx = dU/2

Evaluate the limit, upper limit gives dU = 2*4 = 8, lower limit gives dU = 2*1 = 2.

Since this limit are the same as the limit for the question,

Therefore, F(4) - F(1) = F(8) - F(2) = 10

Substituting dx=dU/2

Gives,

Integral from 2 to 8 of 2 times f(2x)= (1/2)(2)(F(8)-F(2)) = 10

Is this equation infinity many solution 5c+9=5c-12
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

The answer is no solution.

Step-by-step explanation: First, you would add + 12 to both sides of the equation so that you would have 5c + 21 = 5c. Then, you would subtract 5c from both sides of the equation. This would leave you with 21 = 0. Since this is not true, the equation would have no solution.
