1) How have human factors contributed to climate change, and what evidence supports these factors?

1 answer:

4 0

Human factors contributed to climate change through the usage of CFC's common in sprays, aerosols, refrigerant in air conditioners and other manufacturing industries that thins out the ozone layer thereby lessenign the protection from the sun rays. CO2 charged form The non-human factors are volcanic eruptions, solar output and heat generating natural processes. ways to reduce human impact are (1) reduce the use of sprays, aerosols esp. with CFCs; (2) become energy efficient and (3) reducing your wastes.

You intend to draw a random sample in order to test a hypothesis about an unknown population mean. You will use a hypothesis tes

kompoz [17]

Answer:

Determine the null and alternative hypotheses.
Select a level of significance.
Draw a random sample, and calculate the sample statistic.
Decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

The steps that involve testing a hypothesis can be sorted like this:

First, we have to determine the null and alternative hypothesis. This is related directly to the claim we are trying to prove.

Second, we select a level of significance. This depends on how conservative we want to be with the conclusions. We have to do it before evaluating the test statistic, although it is not involved in its calculations.

Third, we draw a random sample, and calculate the sample statistic. This is the core of the hypothesis test, were we use the information of a sample to infer a characteristic of the population.

Fourth and last, with the results of the test statistic, we decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis. This leads to the conclusions about the claims.

The data list shows the scores of ten students in Mr. Smith's math class. 61, 67, 81, 83, 87, 88, 89, 90, 98, 100 What is the st

cluponka [151]

Answer:

12.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

We find the mean

The data list shows the scores of ten students in Mr. Smith's math class. 61, 67, 81, 83, 87, 88, 89, 90, 98, 100

Mean = Sum of terms/Number of terms

Number of terms = 10

Mean = 61 + 67 + 81 + 83 + 87 + 88 + 89 + 90 + 98 + 100/10

Mean = 844/10

Mean = 84.4

Step 2

Standard deviation

The formula for sample standard deviation =

√(x - Mean)²/n - 1

= √[(61 - 84.4)² + (67 - 84.4)² + (81 - 84.4)² + (83 - 84.4)² + (87 - 84.4)² + (88 - 84.4)² + (89 - 84.4)² + (90 - 84.4)² + (98 - 84.4)² + (100 - 84.4)²]/10 - 1

=√ 547.56 + 302.76 + 11.56 + 1.96 + 6.76 + 12.96 + 21.16 + 31.36 + 184.96 + 243.36/10 - 1

= √1364.4/9

= √151.6

= 12.31259518

Approximately to the nearest tenth = 12.3

The standard deviation = 12.3

You have a large jar that initially contains 30 red marbles and 20 blue marbles. We also have a large supply of extra marbles of

Dima020 [189]

Answer:

There is a 57.68% probability that this last marble is red.

There is a 20.78% probability that we actually drew the same marble all four times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initially, there are 50 marbles, of which:

30 are red

20 are blue

Any time a red marble is drawn:

The marble is placed back, and another three red marbles are added

Any time a blue marble is drawn

The marble is placed back, and another five blue marbles are added.

The first three marbles can have the following combinations:

R - R - R

R - R - B

R - B - R

R - B - B

B - R - R

B - R - B

B - B - R

B - B - B

Now, for each case, we have to find the probability that the last marble is red. So

$P = P_{1} + P_{2} + P_{3} + P_{4} + P_{5} + P_{6} + P_{7} + P_{8}$

$P_{1}$ is the probability that we go R - R - R - R

There are 50 marbles, of which 30 are red. So, the probability of the first marble sorted being red is $\frac{30}{50} = \frac{3}{5}$ .

Now the red marble is returned to the bag, and another 3 red marbles are added.

Now there are 53 marbles, of which 33 are red. So, when the first marble sorted is red, the probability that the second is also red is $\frac{33}{53}$

Again, the red marble is returned to the bag, and another 3 red marbles are added

Now there are 56 marbles, of which 36 are red. So, in this sequence, the probability of the third marble sorted being red is $\frac{36}{56}$

Again, the red marble sorted is returned, and another 3 are added.

Now there are 59 marbles, of which 39 are red. So, in this sequence, the probability of the fourth marble sorted being red is $\frac{39}{59}$ . So

$P_{1} = \frac{3}{5}*\frac{33}{53}*\frac{36}{56}*\frac{39}{59} = \frac{138996}{875560} = 0.1588$

$P_{2}$ is the probability that we go R - R - B - R

$P_{2} = \frac{3}{5}*\frac{33}{53}*\frac{20}{56}*\frac{36}{61} = \frac{71280}{905240} = 0.0788$

$P_{3}$ is the probability that we go R - B - R - R

$P_{3} = \frac{3}{5}*\frac{20}{53}*\frac{33}{58}*\frac{36}{61} = \frac{71280}{937570} = 0.076$

$P_{4}$ is the probability that we go R - B - B - R

$P_{4} = \frac{3}{5}*\frac{20}{53}*\frac{25}{58}*\frac{33}{63} = \frac{49500}{968310} = 0.0511$

$P_{5}$ is the probability that we go B - R - R - R

$P_{5} = \frac{2}{5}*\frac{30}{55}*\frac{33}{58}*\frac{36}{61} = \frac{71280}{972950} = 0.0733$

$P_{6}$ is the probability that we go B - R - B - R

$P_{6} = \frac{2}{5}*\frac{30}{55}*\frac{25}{58}*\frac{33}{63} = \frac{49500}{1004850} = 0.0493$

$P_{7}$ is the probability that we go B - B - R - R

$P_{7} = \frac{2}{5}*\frac{25}{55}*\frac{1}{2}*\frac{33}{63} = \frac{825}{17325} = 0.0476$

$P_{8}$ is the probability that we go B - B - B - R

$P_{8} = \frac{2}{5}*\frac{25}{55}*\frac{1}{2}*\frac{30}{65} = \frac{750}{17875} = 0.0419$

So, the probability that this last marble is red is:

$P = P_{1} + P_{2} + P_{3} + P_{4} + P_{5} + P_{6} + P_{7} + P_{8} = 0.1588 + 0.0788 + 0.076 + 0.0511 + 0.0733 + 0.0493 + 0.0476 + 0.0419 = 0.5768$

There is a 57.68% probability that this last marble is red.

What's the probability that we actually drew the same marble all four times?

$P = P_{1} + P_{2}$

$P_{1}$ is the probability that we go R-R-R-R. It is the same $P_{1}$ from the previous item(the last marble being red). So $P_{1} = 0.1588$

$P_{2}$ is the probability that we go B-B-B-B. It is almost the same as $P_{8}$ in the previous exercise. The lone difference is that for the last marble we want it to be blue. There are 65 marbles, 35 of which are blue.

$P_{2} = \frac{2}{5}*\frac{25}{55}*\frac{1}{2}*\frac{35}{65} = \frac{875}{17875} = 0.0490$
