The speed of sound in water is 1498 m/s. a sonar signal is sent straight down from a ship at a point just below the water surfac
bulgar [2K]
The 1.8 s is the time for the signal to reach the ocean floor and return to the ship so the time to reach ocean floor = 1.8 / 2 = 0.90 seconds.
depth of ocean = speed * time

=  1498 * 0.90  =  1348.2 m  Answer

If the third term in a geometric sequence is 20, and the fifth term in the
Gwar [14]

Answer: A) 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

In a geometric sequence, the consecutive terms differ by a common ratio. The formula for determining the nth term of a geometric progression is expressed as

Tn = ar^(n - 1)

Where

a represents the first term of the sequence.

r represents the common ratio.

n represents the number of terms.

If the third term is 20, it means that

T3 = 20 = ar^(3 - 1)

20 = ar²- - - - - - - - - - 1

If the third term is 20, it means that

T5 = 5 = ar^(5 - 1)

5 = ar⁴- - - - - - - - - - 2

Dividing equation 2 by equation 1, it becomes

5/20 = r⁴/r²

1/4 = r^(4 - 2)

(1/2)² = r²

r = 1/2

For a certain population of men, 8 percent carry a certain genetic trait. For a certain population of women, 0.5 percent carry t
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

C) 150 men and 100 women

D) 200 men and 2000 women

E) 1000 men and 1000 women

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

To compare the proportion of people that carry certain genetic trait in men and woman from a certain population two variables of study where determined:

X₁: Number of men that carry the genetic trait.

X₁~Bi(n₁;p₁)

X₂: Number of women that carry the genetic trait.

X₂~Bi(n₂;p₂)

The parameter of interest is the difference between the population proportion of men that carry the genetic trait and the population proportion of women that carry the genetic trait, symbolically: p₁-p₂

To be able to study the difference between the population proportions you have to apply the Central Limit Theorem to approximate the distribution of both sample proportions to normal.

<u><em>Reminder:</em></u>

Be a variable with binomial distribution X~Bi(n;p), if a sample of size n is taken from the population in the study. Then the distribution of the sample proportion tends to the normal distribution with mean p and variance (pq)/n when the sample size tends to infinity.

As a rule, a sample of size greater than or equal to 30 is considered sufficient to apply the theorem and use the approximation.

So for both populations in the study, the sample sizes should be

n₁ ≥ 30

n₂ ≥ 30

Also:

Both samples should be independent and include at least 10 successes and 10 failures.

Both populations should be at least 20 times bigger than the samples. (This last condition is to be assumed because without prior information about the populations is impossible to verify)

  • If everything checks out then (p'₁-p'₂)≈N(p₁-p₂; p(1/n₁+1/n₂))

<u>The options are:</u>

A) 30 men and 30 women

n₁ ≥ 30 and n₂ ≥ 30

Both samples are big enough and independent.

Population 1

Successes: x₁= n₁*p₁= 30*0.08= 2.4

Failures: y₁= n₁*q₁= 30*0.92= 27.6

Population 2

Successes: x₂= n₂*p₂= 30*0.5= 15

Failures: y₂= n₂*q₂= 30*0.5= 15

The second condition is not met.

B) 125 men and 20 women

n₁ ≥ 30 but n₂ < 30

Both samples are independent but n₂ is not big enough for the approximation.

C) 150 men and 100 women

n₁ ≥ 30 and n₂ ≥ 30

Both samples are big enough and independent.

Population 1

Successes: x₁= n₁*p₁= 150*0.08= 12

Failures: y₁= n₁*q₁= 150*0.92= 138

Population 2

Successes: x₂= n₂*p₂= 100*0.5= 50

Failures: y₂= n₂*q₂= 100*0.5= 50

All conditions are met, an approximation to normal is valid.

D) 200 men and 2000 women

n₁ ≥ 30 and n₂ ≥ 30

Both samples are big enough and independent.

Population 1

Successes: x₁= n₁*p₁= 200*0.08= 16

Failures: y₁= n₁*q₁= 200*0.92= 184

Population 2

Successes: x₂= n₂*p₂= 2000*0.5= 1000

Failures: y₂= n₂*q₂= 2000*0.5= 1000

All conditions are met, an approximation to normal is valid.

E) 1000 men and 1000 women

n₁ ≥ 30 and n₂ ≥ 30

Both samples are big enough and independent.

Population 1

Successes: x₁= n₁*p₁= 1000*0.08= 80

Failures: y₁= n₁*q₁= 1000*0.92= 920

Population 2

Successes: x₂= n₂*p₂= 1000*0.5= 500

Failures: y₂= n₂*q₂= 1000*0.5= 500

All conditions are met, an approximation to normal is valid.

I hope this helps!

The answer is: x is choose your answer
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

All real numbers

Let's find the critical points of the inequality.

−4x+7=17

−4x+7+−7=17+−7(Add -7 to both sides)

−4x=10

−4x−1=10−1

(Divide both sides by -1)

4x=−10

4x=−10(Solve Exponent)

log(4x)=log(−10)(Take log of both sides)

x*(log(4))=log(−10)

x=log(−10)log(4)

x=NaN
