stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Part A

b. 14.6 ± 7.38

Part B

b. 3.43

Part C

a. P-value < 0.01

Part D

b. There is sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The given data are;

The number of seedlings in the field = 20

The number of seedlings selected to receive herbicide A = 10

The number of seedlings selected to receive herbicide B = 10

The height in centimeters of seedlings treated with Herbicide A, $\overline x _1$ = 94.5 cm

The standard deviation, s₁ = 10 cm

The height in centimeters of seedlings treated with Herbicide B, $\overline x _2$ = 109.1 cm

The standard deviation, s₂ = 9 cm

The 90% confidence interval for μ₂ - μ₁, is given as follows;

$\left (\bar{x}_{2}- \bar{x}_{1} \right )\pm t_{\alpha /2}\sqrt{\dfrac{s_{1}^{2}}{n_{1}}+\dfrac{s_{2}^{2}}{n_{2}}}$

The critical-t at 95% and n₁ + n₂ - 2 degrees of freedom is given as follows;

The degrees of freedom, df = n₁ + n₂ - 2 = 10 + 10 - 2 = 18

α = 100% - 90% = 10%

∴ For two tailed test, we have, α/2 = 10%/2 = 5% = 0.05

$t_{(0.025, \, 18)}$ = 1.734

$C.I. = \left (109.1- 94.5 \right )\pm 1.734 \times \sqrt{\dfrac{10^{2}}{10}+\dfrac{9^{2}}{10}}$

C.I. ≈ 14.6 ± 7.37714603353

The 90% C.I. ≈ 14.6 ± 7.38

b. 14.6 ± 7.38

Part B

With the hypotheses are given as follows;

H₀; μ₂ - μ₁ = 0

Hₐ; μ₂ - μ₁ ≠ 0

The two sample t-statistic is given as follows;

$t=\dfrac{(\bar{x}_{2}-\bar{x}_{1})}{\sqrt{\dfrac{s_{1}^{2} }{n_{1}}+\dfrac{s _{2}^{2}}{n_{2}}}}$

$t-statistic=\dfrac{(109.1-94.5)}{\sqrt{\dfrac{10^{2} }{10}+\dfrac{9^{2}}{10}}} \approx 3.43173361147$

The two sample t-statistic ≈ 3.43

b. 3.43

Part C

From the t-table, the p-value, we have, the p-value < 0.01

a. P-value < 0.01

Part D

Given that a significance level of 0.05 level is used and the p-value of 0.01 is less than the significance level, there is enough statistical evidence to reject the null hypothesis

b. There is sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

if a square with point H at coordinates (-8,5) was reflected across the y-axis, what would the coordinates of point H' be ?

zimovet [89]

Answer:

Your answer would be 8 and 5 because you are just moving the point over the y axis from -8 and 5 to 8 and 5.

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

a) k=2.08 1/hour

b) The exponential growth model can be written as:

$P(t)=Ce^{kt}$

c) 977,435,644 cells

d) 2.033 billions cells per hour.

e) 2.81 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a model of exponential growth.

We know that the population duplicates every 20 minutes (t=0.33).

The initial population is P(t=0)=58.

The exponential growth model can be written as:

$P(t)=Ce^{kt}$

For t=0, we have:

$P(0)=Ce^0=C=58$

If we use the duplication time, we have:

$P(t+0.33)=2P(t)\\\\58e^{k(t+0.33)}=2\cdot58e^{kt}\\\\e^{0.33k}=2\\\\0.33k=ln(2)\\\\k=ln(2)/0.33=2.08$

Then, we have the model as:

$P(t)=58e^{2.08t}$

The relative growth rate (RGR) is defined, if P is the population and t the time, as:

$RGR=\dfrac{1}{P}\dfrac{dP}{dt}=k$

In this case, the RGR is k=2.08 1/h.

After 8 hours, we will have:

$P(8)=58e^{2.08\cdot8}=58e^{16.64}=58\cdot 16,852,338= 977,435,644$

The rate of growth can be calculated as dP/dt and is:

$dP/dt=58[2.08\cdot e^{2.08t}]=120.64e^2.08t=2.08P(t)$

For t=8, the rate of growth is:

$dP/dt(8)=2.08P(8)=2.08\cdot 977,435,644 = 2,033,066,140$

(2.033 billions cells per hour).

We can calculate when the population will reach 20,000 cells as:

$P(t)=20,000\\\\58e^{2.08t}=20,000\\\\e^{2.08t}=20,000/58\approx344.827\\\\2.08t=ln(344.827)\approx5.843\\\\t=5.843/2.08\approx2.81$
