Mona wants to obtain a 94% confidence interval for the mean weight of turtles. She read in the Big Book of Turtles that the stan

dard deviation of turtle weight is 37 grams. If her confidence interval must have a length of no more than 15, how many turtles must she weigh?

Answer:

87

Step-by-step explanation:

Population standard deviation = σ = 37 grams

Confidence interval = 94%

(1-α)×100% = 94

⇒α = 0.06

From table z table and interpolation

z = 1.881

L = Confidence interval length = 15

N = Number of samples

L=2z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt N}\\\Rightarrow \sqrt N=2z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{L}\\\Rightarrow \sqrt N=2\times 1.881\frac{37}{15}\\\Rightarrow \sqrt N=9.2796\\\Rightarrow N=86.11097616\approx 87

∴ Number of turtles must she must weigh is 87

In an experiment you do a chi-square test comparing observed and expected progeny. Your calculated chi square is 0.375. With 1 d
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

It mean that the observed progeny is similar than the expected progeny. There is no a relationship between the categorical variables.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Chi-squared test is used to test the relationship between categorical variables. A categorical variable is a non-numerical variable. The null hypothesis of the Chi-squared test is that categorical variables are independent; it means that the frequencies are not dependent on the variable. It is important to know that the Chi-squared test does not measure causality, it only measures the relationship. To reject the null hypothesis, you usually need a probability lower than 0.05, but in this case, the probability was way higher than 0.05, it was between 0.5 and 0.9.

What is the reason for each strip on the solution of the equation?
Pani-rosa [81]

Step 1: Given

Step 2:  Distributive Property

Step 3: Addition Property of  Equality

Step 4: Division Property of  Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to match the reason with the correct step in the equation.

Equation:

Given:

2x = -4(x-3)

Applying Distributive property a(b+c)=ab+ac

2x=-4x+12

Now, Applying addition property of equality:

Adding +4x on both sides

2x+4x=-4x+12+4x\\6x=12

Now, Applying Division property of Equality:

Divide both sides by 6:

\frac{6x}{6}=\frac{12}{6}\\x=2

So, Answer will be:

Step 1: Given

Step 2:  Distributive Property

Step 3: Addition Property of  Equality

Step 4: Division Property of  Equality
