For the following reports about statistical studies, identify the following items (if possible). If you can't tell, then say so-

this often happens when we read about a survey.
(i) The population: the soil around the former industrial waste dump
(ii) The parameter of interest: the mean level of toxic chemicals in the soil
(iii) The sample: the 20 soil samples
(iv) The sample statistic: the mean level of toxic chemicals in the 20 soil samples.
The Environmental Protection Agency took soil samples at 16 locations near a former industrial waste dump and checked each for evidence of toxic chemicals. They found no elevated levels of any harmful substances.

Answer:

  1. Population: Soil around a former waste dump
  2. Parameter: Concentrations of toxic chemicals
  3. Sample frame: Accessible soil around dump
  4. Sample: 16 soil samples
  5. Method: Unclear
  6. Bias: Uncertain if soil samples were randomly chosen

Step-by-step explanation:

The above answer explanation can be more clear by understanding that the population is the soil around the former waste dump and the samples are 16   which were taken from  EPA.In report, the method is unclear too.

Statuary Hall is an elliptical room in the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C. The room is also called the Whispering Gall
dalvyx [7]

Answer: a) \frac{x^{2} }{2352.25 } + \frac{y^{2} }{529} = 1

b) The distance of two foci is 85.4 feet

c) Area = 3502.67 square feet

Step-by-step explanation: a) An ellipse has the equation in the form of:

\frac{x^{2} }{a^{2} }+\frac{y^{2} }{b^{2} } = 1, where a is the horizontal axis and b is the vertical axis.

For the Statuary Hall, a = \frac{97}{2} = 48.5 and b = \frac{46}{2} = 23, so the equation will be

\frac{x^{2} }{2352.25 } + \frac{y^{2} }{529} = 1.

b) To determine the distance of the foci, we have to calculate 2c, where c is the distance between one focus and the center of the ellipse. To find c, as a, b and c create a triangle with a as hypotenuse:

a^{2} = b^{2} + c^{2}

c^{2} = a^{2} - b^{2}

c = \sqrt{48.5^{2} - 23^{2} }

c = 42.7

The distance is 2c, so 2·42.7 = 85.4 feet.

The two foci are 85.4 feet apart.

c)The area of an ellipse is given by:

A = a.b.π

A = 48.5 · 23 · 3.14

A = 3502.67 ft²

The area of the floor room is 3502.67ft².

How do you know what angle degree goes on each corner?
Dahasolnce [82]

Let'sSo, we gave 2 parallel lines and 2 transversals, we have to match the angles.

Let's start with angle b,

\begin{gathered} b+65=180\text{ (angles in a straight line)} \\ b=180-65 \\ b=115^o \end{gathered}

Let's move on to angle e,

\begin{gathered} e=b\text{ (Vertically opposite angles)} \\ \text{but b = 115}^o \\ e=115^o^{} \end{gathered}

Let's move on to angle d,

d=110^o\text{ (V}ertically\text{ opposite angles)}

Moving to angle c, we have;

c=45^o\text{ (Vertically opposite angles)}

And, angle a;

\begin{gathered} a=b\text{ (Alternate angles)} \\ a=115^o \end{gathered}
