In 1903, a paper published by Abigail Camp Dimon, discussed the effect of environment on the shape and form of two sea snail spe

cies. Nassa obsoleta and Nassa trivittata. One of the variables that Dimon considered was the length of the shell. She found that the mean shell lenth of 461 randomly selected specimens of N. trivittata to be 11.9 mm., with a standard deviation of 2.5 mm. (Source: Elementary Statitics, Weiss, 8th Edition) If you were to construct a confidence interval for the average shell length for the N. trivittata species, what is the standard error used to calculate the margin of error? (do not round any values except your final answer. round your answer to the thousands place)

Answer: The standard error is 0.1225.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Sample size = 461

Standard deviation = 2.5

We need to find the standard error to calculate the margin of error.

So, the standard error would b

S.E.=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\S.E.=\dfrac{2.5}{\sqrt{416}}\\\\S.E.=\dfrac{2.5}{20.396}\\\\S.E.=0.1225

Hence, the standard error is 0.1225.

Which table shows a function whose range has exactly three elements
Rudik [331]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The table which shows that a function's range has exactly three elements is:

         x      y

         3      8

        4      6

        5      12

        6       8

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

<u>Domain of a function--</u>

The domain of a function is the set of all the x-values i.e. the value of the independent variable for which a function is defined.

<u>Range of a function--</u>

It is the set of all the y-value or the values which are obtained by the independent variable i.e. the values obtained by the function in it's defined domain.

a)

     x      y

     1      4

     2      4

     3       4

Domain: {1,2,3}

Range: {4}

Hence, the range has a single element.

b)

     x      y

     3      8

     4      6

     5      12

     6       8

Domain: {3,4,5,6}

Range: {6,8,12}

Hence, the range has three element.

c)

     x      y

     0     5

     2      9

     0      15

This relation is not a function.

because 0 has two images.

0 is mapped to 5 and 0 is mapped to 15.

d)

     x      y

     1      4

     3     2

    5      1  

    3      4

This relation is not a function.

because 3 has two images.

3 is mapped to 2 in the ordered pair (3,2) and 3 is mapped to 4 in the ordered pair (3,4)

Simplify the expression 6x+12y+5+2y+8 what is the coefficient of y and what is the constant
frez [133]
We want to find the coeficient of the y terms when added together so find all the y terms

+12y and +2y
we add them together
12y+2y=(12+2)y=(14)y=14y
coeficient is 14


the constant is the number that is set already or the number that doesn't have it multiplied by a placeholder exg. 4 is a constnat but 4x is not so find the constants
+5 and +8
we add
5+8=13
the constant is 13


y coeficient=14
constant=14

The height of the triangle is 3 meters longer than twice its base. Find the base and height if the area is 8 square meters. Roun
polet [3.4K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • base: 2.18 m
  • height: 7.35 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b represent the base of the triangle in meters. Then the height is ...

  h = 3 +2b

and the area is ...

  A = 1/2bh

  8 = 1/2(b)(3 +2b)

  16 = 3b +2b^2 . . . . . . . multiply by 2 and eliminate parentheses

  2(b^2 +3/2b + (9/16)) = 16 + 9/8 . . . . . . complete the square

  2(b +3/4)^2 = 17.125

  (b +3/4)^2 = 8.5625 . . . . . divide by 2

  b + 0.75 = √8.5625 ≈ 2.9262

  b = -0.75 +2.9262 = 2.1762

  h = 3 +2b = 7.3523

The base is about 2.18 meters and the height is about 7.35 meters.

Please helpppppp
melomori [17]

Given Information:

Years = t = 35

Semi-annual deposits = P = $2,000

Compounding semi-annually  = n = 2

Interest rate = i = 6.5%  

Required Information

Accumulated amount  = A = ?

Answer:

Accumulated amount  = $515,827

Step-by-step explanation:

The future value of amount earned over period of 35 years and interest rate 6.5% with semi-annual deposits is given by

FV = PMT * ((1 + i/n)^nt - 1)/(i/n))

Where  

n = 2

i = 0.065

t = 35

FV = 2000*((1 + 0.065/2)^2*35 - 1)/(0.065/2))

FV = 2,000*(257.91)

FV ≈ $515,827

Therefore, Anthony will have an amount of $515,827 when he retires in 35 years.

PLEASE HELP!!!:)). The area of ​​the trampezoid is 100dm and the bases are 2.1m and 1.9m. Calculate the height of the trampezoid
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

Well, the only thing you should do is to use the formula.

if the bases are: a, b

and the height is=h

Then, this is your formula, S=½(a+b)×h

Step-by-step explanation:

Aight,

100dm=10m

S=10m

now, the formula

10=½(2.1+1.9)×h===> 20=4h==> h=5m
