A researcher examines 27 water samples for mercury concentration. The mean mercury concentration for the sample data is 0.097 cc

jonny [76]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval is written in the form,

(Sample mean - margin of error, sample mean + margin of error)

The sample mean, x is the point estimate for the population mean.

Margin of error = z × s/√n

Where

s = sample standard deviation = 0.0074

n = number of samples = 27

From the information given, the population standard deviation is unknown and the sample size is small, hence, we would use the t distribution to find the z score

In order to use the t distribution, we would determine the degree of freedom, df for the sample.

df = n - 1 = 27 - 1 = 26

Since confidence level = 90% = 0.90, α = 1 - CL = 1 – 0.9 = 0.1

α/2 = 0.1/2 = 0.05

the area to the right of z0.05 is 0.05 and the area to the left of z0.05 is 1 - 0.05 = 0.95

Looking at the t distribution table,

z = 1.706

The critical value is 1.706

Margin of error = 1.706 × 0.0074√27

= 0.0024

The 90% confidence interval is

0.097 ± 0.0024

HELP THIS IS DUE IN 1:00 PM AND I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST

amid [387]

Answer:

1) They were multiplied by one power of ten because 2.5x 1^10 is 25, and so that it is easier to divide.

19.625/ 2.5 * 10/10 = 196.25/25

Hope this helps plz hit the crown ;D

The first three steps in determining the solution set of the system of equations algebraically are shown.

Ivenika [448]

(2,-1), (-4,17).

Step-by-step explanation:

Equate the equation A and equation B

Convert the quadratic equation in factored form

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.

Rewrite as perfect squares

Square root both sides

Find the values of y

Substitute the value of x in the equation B

NEED HELP ASAP PLEASE!! The provided diagram of triangle ABC will help you to prove that the base angles of an isosceles triangl

Lunna [17]

Answer: The proof is mentioned below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, Δ ABC is isosceles triangle.

Therefore, AB = BC

Prove: Δ ABO ≅ Δ ACO

In Δ ABO and Δ ACO,

∠ BAO ≅ ∠ CAO ( AO bisects ∠ BAC )

∠ AOB ≅ ∠ AOC ( AO is perpendicular to BC )

BO ≅ OC ( O is the mid point of BC)

Thus, By ASA postulate of congruence,

Δ ABO ≅ Δ ACO

Therefore, By CPCTC,

∠B ≅ ∠ C

Where ∠ B and ∠ C are the base angles of Δ ABC.
