This is an exponential decay function, or it can also be viewed as a geometric sequence, either way, it can be expressed in this circumstance as:

f=ir^t, f=final amount, i=initial amount, r=common ratio or rate, t=times ratio is applied or time.

In this case i=2000 and r=(100-7)/100=0.93 so

f=2000(0.93^t)

We are asked to find when f=600 so:

600=2000(0.93^t)  divide both sides by 2000

0.3=0.93^t, take the natural log of both sides

ln0.3=t*ln0.93  divide both sides by ln0.93

(ln0.3)/(ln0.93)=t

t≈16.59

So in about 16.5 years she will own only 600 square miles.  (round as appropriate for your answer)

1. A researcher is interested in whether drinking different sources of caffeine (tea vs. coffee) leads
g100num [7]

The researcher's scientific/alternative hypothesis is:

  • Different sources of caffeine leads to differences in women's attentional control performance.

The researcher's null hypothesis is:

  • Different sources of caffeine leads to no difference in women's attentional control performance.

The type of sample which the researcher is using is:

  • Probability sampling.

A disadvantage to using this sample type is:

  • It is time consuming.

The thing which the researcher can conclude about these data is:

  • It is conclusive based on the reaction of the women to the independent variables.

If, in the population, women actually show NO difference in attentional control performance after drinking black tea versus coffee, the type of statistical error which the researcher has made is:

  • Type I error

<h3>What is a Scientific Hypothesis?</h3>

This refers to the difference between two variables which is discovered during a scientific research and is an observed pattern.

What scale factor was used in going from the grey triangle to the yellow triangle?
Lena [83]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to find out the length of the third side of the triangle. (The right side of the Y-axis) We use the pythagorean theorem to find it. 4²+2² = 20 find the square root of 20 √20 = ~4.5 so with this in mind, lets find the length of the whole triangle. 8²+4²=80 then √80 = ~9 with this, we can say that since the length of one of the legs has increased by 2, and so has the length of the base, and also the length of the hypotenuse, the scale factor must be 2.
