Rex is currently taking physics as one of his electives in school. His grade at the end of the year is determined by the average

frozen [14]

Answer:

The answer would be A)98.

I got this by taking the 3 test scores that were provided and adding them then subtracting that by 360 (90x4 - which would give you a 90 in the end) so I had 360 - 262 which equaled 98 and that would be the score needed to have a 90 in the end.

The USDA conducted tests for salmonella in produce grown in California. In an independent sample of 252 cultures obtained from w

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

The decision rule is

Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is

There no sufficient evidence to show that the proportion of salmonella in the region’s water differs from the proportion of salmonella in the region’s wildlife

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The first sample size is $n_1 = 252$

The number that tested positive is $k_1 = 18$

The second sample size is $n_2 = 476$

The number that tested positive is $k_2 = 20$

The level of significance is $\alpha = 0.01$

Generally the first sample proportion is mathematically represented as

$\^ p _1 = \frac{k_1 }{ n_1 }$

=> $\^ p _1 = \frac{18 }{ 252 }$

=> $\^ p _1 = 0.071$

Generally the second sample proportion is mathematically represented as

$\^ p _2 = \frac{k_2 }{ n_2 }$

=> $\^ p _2 = \frac{20 }{ 476}$

=> $\^ p _2 = 0.042$

The null hypothesis is $H_o : p_1 - p_2 = 0$

The alternative hypothesis is $H_a : p_1 - p_2 \ne 0$

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented

$z = \frac{ \^ p_1 - \^ p_2 - ( p_ 1 - p_2 )}{ \sqrt{\frac{\^ p_1 (1-\^ p_1)}{ n_1 } + \frac{\^ p_2 (1-\^ p_2)}{ n_2 } } }$

=> $z = \frac{ 0.071 - 0.042 - 0 }{ \sqrt{\frac{0.071 (1-0.071)}{ 252 } + \frac{0.042 (1-\^ 0.042)}{ 476 } } }$

=> $z = 1.56$

From the z table the area under the normal curve to the right corresponding to 1.56 is

$P(Z > 1.56 ) =0.05938$

Generally the p-value is mathematically represented as

$p-value = 2 * P(Z > 1.56 )$

=> $p-value = 2 * 0.05938$

=> $p-value = 0.1188$

From the value obtained we see that $p-value > \alpha$ hence

The decision rule is

Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is

There no sufficient evidence to show that the proportion of salmonella in the region’s water differs from the proportion of salmonella in the region’s wildlife

The angle of elevation from me to the top of a hill is 51 degrees. The angle of elevation from me to the top of a tree is 57 deg

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

Approximately $101\; \rm ft$ (assuming that the height of the base of the hill is the same as that of the observer.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the diagram attached.

Let $\rm O$ denote the observer.
Let $\rm A$ denote the top of the tree.
Let $\rm R$ denote the base of the tree.
Let $\rm B$ denote the point where line $\rm AR$ (a vertical line) and the horizontal line going through $\rm O$ meets. $\angle \rm B\hat{A}R = 90^\circ$ .

Angles:

Angle of elevation of the base of the tree as it appears to the observer: $\angle \rm B\hat{O}R = 51^\circ$ .
Angle of elevation of the top of the tree as it appears to the observer: $\angle \rm B\hat{O}A = 57^\circ$ .

Let the length of segment $\rm BR$ (vertical distance between the base of the tree and the base of the hill) be $x\; \rm ft$ .

The question is asking for the length of segment $\rm AB$ . Notice that the length of this segment is $\mathrm{AB} = (x + 20)\; \rm ft$ .

The length of segment $\rm OB$ could be represented in two ways:

In right triangle $\rm \triangle OBR$ as the side adjacent to $\angle \rm B\hat{O}R = 51^\circ$ .
In right triangle $\rm \triangle OBA$ as the side adjacent to $\angle \rm B\hat{O}A = 57^\circ$ .

For example, in right triangle $\rm \triangle OBR$ , the length of the side opposite to $\angle \rm B\hat{O}R = 51^\circ$ is segment $\rm BR$ . The length of that segment is $x\; \rm ft$ .

$\begin{aligned}\tan{\left(\angle\mathrm{B\hat{O}R}\right)} = \frac{\,\rm {BR}\,}{\,\rm {OB}\,} \; \genfrac{}{}{0em}{}{\leftarrow \text{opposite}}{\leftarrow \text{adjacent}}\end{aligned}$ .

Rearrange to find an expression for the length of $\rm OB$ (in $\rm ft$ ) in terms of $x$ :

$\begin{aligned}\mathrm{OB} &= \frac{\mathrm{BR}}{\tan{\left(\angle\mathrm{B\hat{O}R}\right)}} \\ &= \frac{x}{\tan\left(51^\circ\right)}\approx 0.810\, x\end{aligned}$ .

Similarly, in right triangle $\rm \triangle OBA$ :

$\begin{aligned}\mathrm{OB} &= \frac{\mathrm{AB}}{\tan{\left(\angle\mathrm{B\hat{O}A}\right)}} \\ &= \frac{x + 20}{\tan\left(57^\circ\right)}\approx 0.649\, (x + 20)\end{aligned}$ .

Equate the right-hand side of these two equations:

$0.810\, x \approx 0.649\, (x + 20)$ .

Solve for $x$ :

$x \approx 81\; \rm ft$ .

Hence, the height of the top of this tree relative to the base of the hill would be $(x + 20)\; {\rm ft}\approx 101\; \rm ft$ .
