A researcher is planning to compare the effects of two different types of lights on the growth of bean plants. She expects that

the means of the two groups will differ by about 1 inch and that in each group the standard deviation of plant growth will be around 1.5 inches. Consider the guideline that the anticipated SE for each experimental group should be no more than one-fourth of the anticipated difference between the two group means. How large should the sample be (for each group) in order to meet this guideline

Answer:

The sample size is  n  = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample standard deviation is  s =  1.5

  The mean difference of the two groups is  \=x _ 1 - \=x_2 =  1

   The standard error is  SE =  \frac{ \= x_1 - \= x_2}{4}

=>                                      SE =  \frac{1}{4}

Let assume that the confidence level is 95% hence the level of significance is  

   \alpha = (100-95)\%

=> \alpha = 0.05

So the critical value of  \frac{\alpha }{2} obtained from the normal distribution table is

     Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96

Generally the margin of error is mathematically evaluated as

     E =  Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * SE    

   E =  1.96 * \frac{1}{4}

    E = 0.49

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as

  n =[ \frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2}  * s^2}}{E}]^2

=> n  = [\frac{1.96 * 1.5}{0.49} ]^2

=> n  = 36

What is the perimeter of the figure
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The perimeter is the length of the outline of a shape. To find the perimeter of a rectangle or square you have to add the lengths of all the four sides. x is in this case the length of the rectangle while y is the width of the rectangle. The perimeter, P, is: P=x+x+y+y.

Sari drives 55 miles per hour. Which equation shows the proportional relationship between hours (h) and miles (m)?
Finger [1]

Answer:

m=55h

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form k=\frac{y}{x} or y=kx

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

Let

m ----> the distance in miles (y-coordinate)

h ----> the time in hours (x-coordinate)

In this problem the constant of proportionality k is given and is equal to

k=55\ \frac{miles}{hour} ----> the speed

substitute

m=55h
