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

A rectangle has perimeter 20m. Express the area of the rectangle as a function of the length of one of its sides.
MArishka [77]
<h2>Area of rectangle is 10L-L²</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L be the length and W be the width.

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 ( L + W )

That is

           2 ( L + W ) = 20

               L + W = 10

                     W = 10 - L

We need to express the area of the rectangle as a function of the length of one of its sides.

           Area = Length x Width

              A = LW

               A = L(10 - L) = 10L-L²

Area of rectangle is 10L-L²
