Weights of Elephants A sample of 7 adult elephants had an average weight of 11,647 pounds. The standard deviation for the sample

was 24 pounds. Find the 95 % confidence interval of the population mean for the weights of adult elephants. Assume the variable is normally distributed. Round intermediate answers to at least three decimal places. Round your final answers to the nearest whole number.

Answer:

The 95 % confidence interval of the population mean for the weights of adult elephants

(11,629.375 , 11,664.625) up to three decimals

Nearest whole number

(11,629 , 11,665)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Explanation</u>:-

A sample of 7 adult elephants had an average weight of 11,647 pounds

size of the sample 'n' =7

The mean of the sample x⁻ = 11,647 pounds

The standard deviation of the sample 'S' = 24 pounds

<u>Step(ii):</u>-

The 95 % confidence interval of the population mean for the weights of adult elephants

(x^{-} - t_{0.95} \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} + t_{0.95} \frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } )

The degrees of freedom γ =n-1 = 7-1=6

t₆ = 1.943

(11,647 - 1.943 \frac{24}{\sqrt{7} } , 11,647 + 1.943 \frac{24}{\sqrt{7} } )

(11,647-17.625 , 11,647+17.625)

(11,629.375 , 11,664.625)

<u>Conclusion</u>:-

The 95 % confidence interval of the population mean for the weights of adult elephants

(11,629 , 11,665)

two airplanes are flying in the air at the same height: airplane a is flying east at $$ mi/h and airplane b is flying north at $
olga55 [171]

The distance between the airplanes changing is  -390.

<h3>Calculation:</h3>

The miles from the airport to Airplane A can be calculated as follows: a = 30 -250t, where t is in hours.

<h3>Similar to airplane A, airplane B's distance from the airport can be expressed as...</h3>

b = 40 -300t

Using the Pythagorean theorem, one can calculate the separation (d) between the aircraft:

d^2 = a^2 + b^2

<h3>Depending on the passage of time, we have...</h3>

2dd' = 2aa' + 2bb', and d' = (aa' + bb')/d.

<h3>The values of its variables at t=0 must be determined in order to determine the numerical value of this</h3>

a = 30 -2500 = 30 a' = -250 b = 40 -3000 = 40 b' = -300

d = √(a²+b²) = √(900+1600) = 50

Then, d' = (30(-250) +40(-300))/50 = -19500/50 = -390

At a speed of 390 miles per hour, the space between the aircraft is closing.

<h3>How far apart are the equation's two planes?</h3>

The distance between the two planes is going to be the square root of six, therefore if we solve for d, multiply both sides of this equation by the square root of six, we obtain six is equal to negative d, or d is equal to negative six.

<h3>How widely apart are commercial airplanes?</h3>

For a commercial airliner, separation will typically be at least 3 miles laterally or 1,000 feet vertically (as stated in the question). The 5 mile rule is applied laterally in the enroute environment, at greater operating speeds over 10,000 feet, depending on the kind of radar and distance from the antennae.

Answer:

f=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Priya Tried to solve the equation below step-by-step:

\qquad\begin{aligned} \dfrac f{0.25}&=16\\ \dfrac{f}{0.25} \cdot0.25&=16\cdot0.25&\green{\text{Step } 1}\\  f&=4&\blue{\text{Step } 2}\\\end{aligned}

The steps are correct and indeed f=4.

Which ordered pairs make the inequality true?
salantis [7]
1.
(-2,3) \\&#10;x=-2 \\&#10;y=3 \\ \Downarrow \\&#10;-2+3 \times 3

The ordered pairs (-2,3) and (5,1) make the inequality true.

2.
15y-3(4y+10)=15y-3 \times 4y-3 \times 10= 15y-12y-30= \\&#10;=3y-30

The simplified form of the expression is 3y-30.
