Answer: 69.75 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The explicit rule for an arithmetic sequence is: $a_n=a_1+d(n-1)\ \text{where}\ a_1\ \text{is the first term and d is the difference}$

In the given problem, $a_1=1.75$ and d = 0.25

$a_n=1.75+0.25(n-1)\\.\quad=1.75+0.25n-0.25\\.\quad=0.25n+1.50\\\\a_{18}=0.25(18)+1.50\\.\quad=4.50+1.50\\.\quad=6.00$

The sum of an arithmetic sequence is: $S_n=\dfrac{a_1+a_n}{2}\cdot n$

$S_{18}=\dfrac{1.75+6}{2}\cdot 18\\\\.\quad=7.75\cdot 9\\\\.\quad=69.75$

A researcher wants to see if a kelp extract helps prevent frost damage on tomato plants. One hundred tomato plants in individual

atroni [7]

Complete question is;

A researcher wants to see if a kelp extract helps prevent frost damage on tomato plants. One hundred tomato plants in individual containers are randomly assigned to two different groups. Plants in both groups are treated identically, except that the plants in group 1 are sprayed weekly with a kelp extract, while the plants in group 2 are not. After the first frost, 12 of the 50 plants in group 1 exhibited damage and 18 of the 50 plants in group 2 showed damage. Let p1 be the actual proportion of all tomato plants of this variety that would experience damage under the kelp treatment, and let p2 be the actual proportion of all tomato plants of this variety that would experience damage under the no-kelp treatment. Is there evidence of a decrease in the proportion of

tomatoes suffering frost damage for tomatoes sprayed with kelp extract? To determine

this, yo u test the hypotheses H0: p1 = p2, Ha: p1 < p2. The p - value of your test is

A) greater than 0.10.

B) between 0.05 and 0.10.

C) between 0.01 and 0.05.

D)between 0.001 and 0.01.

E) below 0.001.

Answer:

B) between 0.05 and 0.10.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Number of plants in group that exhibited damage = 12

Number of group 1 plants; n₁ = 50

Number of plants in group 2 that exhibited damage = 18

Number of group 2 plants; n₂ = 50

Proportion of plants in group 1 that exhibited damage; p₁^ = 12/50 = 0.24

Proportion of plants in group 2 that exhibited damage; p₂^ = 18/50 = 0.36

Pooled proportion; p¯ = (12 + 18)/(50 + 50) = 0.3

q¯ = 1 - p¯

q¯ = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7

Z-score will be;

z = ((p₁^ - p₂^) - 0)/√((p¯•q¯)×((1/n₁) + (1/n₂))

Plugging in the relevant values;

z = (0.24 - 0.36)/√((0.3 × 0.7) × ((1/50) + (1/50))

z = -0.12/0.092

z = -1.3

From z-distribution table attached, we have;

p-value = 0.0968

Correct answer is option B.

A lake has a small patch of lily pads and every day the patch grows to double its size. It takes 32 days for the patch to cover

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

It took 31 days for the patch to cover half the lake

Step-by-step explanation:

The patch grows to double its size everyday

the patch completely covers the lake in 32 days

Since the patch doubles itself everyday, this means that the previous day before the 32nd day, the lake was just half covered.

Therefore, the the patch covered half the lake on the 31st day, i.e it took 31 days for the patch to cover half the lake

There are 35 students in a drama club two out of every five boys in the club are boys how much diamonds in the club are boys

andrew11 [14]

Given:

Number of students = 35

Two out of every five boys in the club are boys.

To find:

The number of students in the club that are boys.

Solution:

Two out of every five boys in the club are boys. It means, the ratio of boys to the total number of student is 2:5.

Let the number of boys be 2x and number of students be 5x.

According to the question,

$5x=35$

$x=7$

Now, the number of boys is

$2x=2(7)$

$2x=14$

Therefore, 14 students in the club are boys.
