A researcher reports a 98% confidence interval for the proportion of Drosophila in a population with mutation Adh-F to be [0.34,

0.38]. Therefore, there is a probability of 0.98 that the proportion of Drosophola with this mutation is between 0.34 and 0.38. True or False

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

The 98% is confidence interval its not a probability estimate. The probability will be different from the confidence interval. Confidence interval is about the population mean and is not calculated based on sample mean. Every confidence interval contains the sample mean. There is 98% confidence that the proportion of Drosophola with his mutation is between 0.34 and 0.38.

Apply the Pythagorean Theorem to find the distance between points B and C. A) 18 units B) 55 units C) 64 units D) 73 units
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

BC=\sqrt{73}

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that A, B, and C constitute the vertices of a right angle triangle, with the right angle at the vertex A.

If we count the number of squares separating B and A (one of the legs of the right angle triangle) we find 8 units.

If we count the number of squares separating C from A (the other leg of the right angle triangle), we get: 3 units.

Then, we apply the Pythagorean theorem to find that length of the triangle's hypotenuse which is the segment BC:

BC=hyp=\sqrt{8^2+3^2} =\sqrt{64+9} =\sqrt{73}

A rhino can run 28 miles per hour. What is that speed in feet per second, to the nearest whole number?
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

A rhino runs at a speed of about 28 miles per hour.

We need to determine the speed in feet per second.

Converting miles to feet:

The miles can be converted to feet by multiplying 5280 with 28 miles per hour.

Thus, we have;

28 x 5280 = 14784028 × 5280 = 147840

Thus, the speed of the rhino in feet per hour is 147840

Converting hours to seconds:

The hours can be converted into seconds by dividing 147840 by 3600 (Because an hour has 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour)

Thus, we get;

Speed=\frac{147840}{3600}Speed=

3600

147840

Speed = 41.066667Speed=41.066667

Rounding off to the nearest whole number, we get;

Speed = 41

Therefore, the speed of the rhino is 41 feet per second.

Shelton earns and hourly wage at a grocery store. The following expression represents Shelton's take home pay after taxes, socia
zalisa [80]

If x represents the number of hours Shelton worked, then the expression 10.25x shows how much Shelton is paid for these x hours ($10.25 for an hour).

After taxes, social security, and his health care plan were deducted he earned

10.25x - 0.21(10.25x).

This means that taxes, social security, and his health care plan form 21% (0.21 as decimal) from 10.25x.

Answer: 21%
