Answer:
a) There is suggestive evidence the velvet leaf seed is successful at weed control.
b) Lower bound: 3.699 Upper bound: 6.629
c) Since the confidence interval contains the average percent of seeds to be infected by the beetle (5.164), so we fail to reject the null hypothesis at the specified level of significance.
Step-by-step explanation:
See attached picture.
If you are solving for b:
-2.6b+4=0.9b-17 <subtract 4 from both sides
-4 -4
-2.6b =0.9b-21 <subtract 0.9b from both sides
-0.9b -0.9b
-3.5b = -21 <divide by -3.5
--------- ------
-3.5 -3.5
b=6
Each one is multiplied by -2...
PROOF
-5 * 10 = -20
-20 * -2 = 40
And so on.
So we need two more numbers so do 40 * -2...
40 * -2 = -80
And then...
-80 * -2 = 160
So the first 6 numbers are...
-5, 10, -20, 40, -80, 160.
We need to find the SUM, which is all the numbers added together.
-5 + 10 - 20 + 40 - 80 + 160 = 105
105 is your answer.
So I’m thinking of this as two triangles. So I would do 16x8/2 which equals 64 and 10x6/2 which equals 30. So my guess is that the area is 94in^2. Hope this helps you out!
