Brown tree snakes are an invasive species causing huge environmental and financial damage in Guam. Researchers captured brown tr

ee snakes on Guam's Andersen Air Force Base, and a random sample of 250 of these snakes were weighed. The researchers want to perform a hypothesis test to see if the mean weight of a brown tree snake in Guam is significantly greater than 120 grams.
Set up the appropriate null and alternate hypotheses for the test.

Answer:

Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \mu \leq 120 grams

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : \mu > 120 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that researchers captured brown tree snakes on Guam's Andersen Air Force Base, and a random sample of 250 of these snakes were weighed.

The researchers want to perform a hypothesis test to see if the mean weight of a brown tree snake in Guam is significantly greater than 120 grams.

<u><em>Let </em></u>\mu<u><em> = mean weight of a brown tree snake in Guam.</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \mu \leq 120 grams

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : \mu > 120 grams

Here, <u>null hypothesis states that</u> the mean weight of a brown tree snake in Guam is smaller than or equal to 120 grams.

On the other hand, <u>alternate hypothesis states that</u> the mean weight of a brown tree snake in Guam is significantly greater than 120 grams.

So, this would be the appropriate null and the alternative hypothesis to test this claim.

Answer:

1.

<u>An extraneous solution is a root of a transformed equation that is not a root of the original equation as it was excluded from the domain of the original equation.</u>

It emerges from the process of solving the problem as a equation.

2.I begin like:

The vertical asymptotes will occur at those values of x for which the denominator is equal to zero:

for example:

x² − 4=0

x²= 4

doing square root on both side

x = ±2

Thus, the graph will have vertical asymptotes at x = 2 and x = −2.

To find the horizontal asymptote, the degree of the numerator is one and the degree of the denominator is two.

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

B. zero

Step-by-step explanation:

If the temperature is supposed to remain constant over time (the same) when working properly, then this means that there is no increase or decrease over time.

If there were a line to represent this, then it would be a straight line with a slope of 0 because the temperature would remain the same.

A kitchen sink has a volume of 1800 cubic inches.What is the volume of a similar sink that is larger by a scale factor of 2
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

14400 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l, b and h are length, breadth and height of a cuboid respectively, then

V=l\times b\times h

If another cuboid is larger by a scale factor of k, then kl, kb and kh are length, breadth and height of new cuboid respectively.

V_1=kl\times kb\times kh

V_1=k^3(l\times b\times h)

V_1=k^3V       ...(i)

It is given that a kitchen sink has a volume of 1800 cubic inches and a similar sink is larger by a scale factor of 2.

Substitute k=2 and V=1800 in equation (i).

V_1=2^3(1800)

V_1=14400

Therefore, the volume of required sink is 14400 cubic inches.
