Soil pH is an important variable in the design of structures that will contact the soil. Nine test samples of soil from a potent

ial construction site gave readings of
7.3 6.5 6.4 6.1 6.0 6.5 6.2 5.8 6.7
Assuming that soil pH is normally distributed, find the 90% lower confidence bound for the true average soil pH at the site.

Answer:

90% lower confidence bound for the true average soil pH at the site is ≈ 6.13

Step-by-step explanation:

90% Lower Confidence bound can be calculated using M-ME where

  • M is the sample mean pH (6.39)
  • ME is the margin of error from the mean

And margin of error (ME)  can be calculated using the formula

ME=\frac{t*s}{\sqrt{N} } where

  • t is the corresponding statistic in the 90% confidence level (1.86)
  • s is the standard deviation of the sample PH's (0.42)
  • N is the sample size (9)

Using the numbers we get:

ME=\frac{1.86*0.42}{\sqrt{9} } ≈ 0.26

Then the 90% lower confidence bound for the true average soil pH at the site is 6.39 - 0.26 = 6.13

Area of rectangle is 2x^2+x-45

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of rectangle = 2x-9

Width of rectangle = x+5

Required:

Area of rectangle

Formula:

Area\,\,of\,\,rectangle=Length*Width

Putting values of length and width:

Area\,\,of\,\,rectangle=Length*Width\\Area\,\,of\,\,rectangle=(2x-9)(x+5)\\Area\,\,of\,\,rectangle=2x(x+5)-9(x+5)\\Area\,\,of\,\,rectangle=2x^2+10x-9x-45\\Area\,\,of\,\,rectangle=2x^2+x-45

So, Area of rectangle is 2x^2+x-45

The profile of the cables on a suspension bridge may be modeled by a parabola. The central span of a bridge is 1270 ft long and
deff fn [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

span of bridge L=1270\ ft

height of span h=157\ ft

Equation of Parabola

y=0.00039x^2

|x| i.e.

-635

\frac{dy}{dx}=2\times 0.00039

length of Arc=\int_{a}^{b}\sqrt{1+(\frac{dy}{dx})^2}

=\int_{-635}^{635}\sqrt{1+(\frac{dy}{dx})^2}

=\int_{-635}^{635}\sqrt{1+(0.00078x)^2}

=2\times \int_{0}^{635}\sqrt{1+(0.00078x)^2}

=2\times (660.08)

=1320.16\ ft

3 more than the product of 7 and a number x is less than 26 Find the solution set for x. Write the solution using a fraction or
Tresset [83]

Answer: The solution set is x\:


Step-by-step explanation:


The product of 7 and x is 7x.


3 more than the product of 7 and x is 7x+3.



We were given that, the expression is less than 26.


This implies that,


7x+3\:.



We group like terms to obtain,



7x\:



7x\: we now divide through by 7 to obtain,


x\:


We finally write this as a mixed number to obtain,


x\:
