Answer:

98% Confidence interval:  (26.939,42.461)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample mean, \bar{x} = 34.7 bushels per acre

Sample size, n = 9

Alpha, α = 0.05

Sample standard deviation, s = 8.04 bushels per acre

Degree of freedom = n - 1 = 8

98% Confidence interval:

\bar{x} \pm t_{critical}\displaystyle\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}  

Putting the values, we get,  

34.7 \pm 2.896(\dfrac{8.04}{\sqrt{9}} )\\\\ = 34.7 \pm 7.761 = (26.939,42.461)  

is the required confidence interval for the true mean yield.

Please help!<br> 5x^2 - 3x - 2 = 0<br> Solve using the zero-factor property.
Alex

Answer:

x = -2/5

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

5x² - 3x - 2 = 0

(5x + 2)(x - 1) = 0

⇒ 5x + 2 = 0

⇒ 5x = -2

⇒ x = -2/5

⇒ x - 1 = 0

⇒ x = 1

The function P(t)=87,000e^0.106t models the population of a city, t years after 2010. How many people lived in the city in 2010?
Bumek [7]

Answer:

87,000 ; 10.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function :

P(t)=87,000e^0.106t

P(t) is an exponential function ; comparing the given function to the general form of an exponential function :

y = Ae^rt

Where,

A = initial amount ; r = growth rate ; t = time

The Given function models t years after 2010, that is the 2010 population is the initial population of the city.

Comparing the general exponential equation with the function given:

A = 87,000 = population of city in 2010

The growth rate :

rt from the general equation compares to 0.106t in the given function.

rt = 0.106t

r = 0.106

Hence, the rate of change = 0.106 * 100% = 10.6%
