The EPA wants to know the daily level of pollutant discharge in the manufacturing district in Pittsburgh for February 2005. The

monitoring equipment reveals that the mean daily discharge per factory (calculated as total areal discharge divided by total areal factories) is 30.2 tons with a standard deviation of 9.1 tons. Construct a confidence interval for the true population mean of pollutant discharge using a 95% level of confidence.

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the true population mean of pollutant discharge is (26.7 tons, 33.7 tons).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> represent the daily level of pollutant discharge in the manufacturing district in Pittsburgh.

The monitoring equipment reveals that for the 28 days of the February month

Mean daily discharge per factory, (\bar x) = 30.2 tons

Standard deviation daily discharge per factory, (<em>s</em>) = 9.1 tons

Compute the critical value of <em>t</em> for 95% level of confidence and (n - 1 =) 27 degrees of freedom as follows:

t_{0.05/2, 27}=2.052

*Use a t-table.

Compute the 95% confidence interval for the true population mean of pollutant discharge as follows:

CI=\bar x\pm t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}\cdot\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}

     =30.2\pm 2.052\times\frac{9.1}{\sqrt{28}}\\\\=30.2\pm 3.53\\\\=(26.67, 33.73)\\\\\approx (26.7, 33.7)

Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the true population mean of pollutant discharge is (26.7 tons, 33.7 tons).

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line v=-1/3x-6
bija089 [108]

If you are trying to find the slope of a line that is perpendicular to another line, you would need to change the sign and change it to the fraction's reciprocal.

m = -\frac{1}{3}

Change the sign of the slope:

\frac{1}{3}

Finally, make the reciprocal of the original slope (switching the numerator and denominator):

\frac{3}{1}

Simplify:

3

Final answer:

m=3

Write a rule that represents the function <br><br> (0,0), (1,6), (2,24), (3,54), (4,96)
Reptile [31]

    These points show that this is not going to be a linear line. This is actually a parabola.

    I find that the function rule is going to be

y=6x^2

Please help asap!!!! 53 points!

The easiest way is to graph it based upon the slope (m) and y-intercept (b), in the standard slope-intercept form: y = m (x) + b.
The line above intercepts the y-axis at y = -2, which is b. The slope (m) = rise/run = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1 ); so for the point (-4, 2) to (-6, 4) is:
(4-2)/(-6--4) = 2/(-6+4) = 2/-2 = -1.
So one form of the equation would be:
y = -1x - 2
Now the other form of an equation is point-slope: y-k = m (x-h), where the point is at (h, k)
and if we pick -5 for x (bc 5 it listed in 3 of the answers), the y at x=-5 looks like around +3
so we get: y-k = -1 (x--5)...
y-3 = -(x+5)... therefore D) is the correct answer:

Please help I have no idea what the answer is
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

x = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right angle. This means that the square to the bottom right is 90 degrees. There is also an angle that is 124, but that is a linear pair to the angle on the inside. This means that 124+__=180 degrees

180-124= 56

So now we know 2 angles, which are 90 degrees and 56 degrees. Because we know that the sum of the angles of a triangle equal 180 degrees, we can subtract 90 and 56 from 180 to get our answer, 34.
