6^{-2} is a positive value.

This is because when you put a number to the power of a negative, the negative forms the reciprocal of the number, so 2^{-1} would be 1/2, as 2/1 × 1/2 = 1, which is what a reciprocal does.

When the negative is more than 1, you simply put the number to that power, and then form the reciprocal of that, which makes 6^{-2} equal to 1/36, which is positive.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)

Ian is a phycologist interested in determining the proportion of algae samples from a local rivulet that belonged to a particula
pickupchik [31]

Answer: 16590

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula we use to find the sample size is given by :-

, where p = prior estimate of population proportion.

z^*= Critical z-value (Two- tailed)

E= Margin of error .

Let p be the population proportion of cyanobacteria.

Given : E = 0.01

Critical value for 99% confidence interval : z^*=2.576

If Ian does not want to rely on previous knowledge , then we assume p=0.5 because the largest standard error is at p=0.5.

Now, the required sample size = n=0.5(1-0.5)(\frac{2.576}{0.01})^2

n=0.25(257.6)^2=0.25(66357.76)=16589.44\approx16590

Required sample size = 16590

Why does no one love me
Mariana [72]

Sometimes we start to lose faith, in those moments we think that no one loves us when they do, they care about us too. It's just your head messing with you. It's like saying "I'm depressed" but you're really not. it's just that you keep saying is that your brain starts believing it. Most of the time it's you losing faith. Which is completely normal and everyone in their life will once feel that way. That's why people often decide to end life way too soon. They don't know it's only going to last some time. It's going to be hard of course but it will soon have to come to an end, and when it does you will feel free and you will be able to enjoy life the way you are supposed to.

hope that helps.
