A chemist examines 15 geological samples for potassium chloride concentration. The mean potassium chloride concentration for the

sample data is 0.376 cc/cubic meter with a standard deviation of 0.0012. Determine the 95% confidence interval for the population mean potassium chloride concentration. Assume the population is approximately normal.
Required:
Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answer:

95% Confidence interval: (0.375,0.377)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample mean, \bar{x} = 0.376 cc/cubic meter

Sample size, n = 15

Alpha, α = 0.05

Sample standard deviation, s = 0.0012

Degree of freedom =

=n-1\\=15-1\\=14

95% Confidence interval:  

\bar{x} \pm t_{critical}\displaystyle\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}  

Putting the values, we get,  

t_{critical}\text{ at degree of freedom 14 and}~\alpha_{0.05} = \pm 2.145  

0.376 \pm 2.145(\dfrac{0.0012}{\sqrt{15}} )\\\\ = 0.376 \pm 0.0006\\\\ = (0.3754,0.3766)\approx (0.375,0.377)  

(0.375,0.377) is the required 95% confidence interval for the population mean potassium chloride concentration.

Answer:

Lines c and b, f and d (option b)

Step-by-step explanation:

To prove whether the lines satisfy the condition of being a transversal to another, let's prove one of the conditions wrong, and thus the answer -

Option 1:

Here lines a and b do not correspond to one another provided they are both transversals, thus don't act as transversals to one another, they simply intersect at a given point.

Option 2:

All conditions are met, lines c and b correspond with one another such that b is a transversal to both c and d. Lines f and d correspond with one another such that f is a transversal to both d and c.

Option 3:

Lines c and d are both not transversals, thus clearly don't act as transversals to one another.

Option 4:

Lines c and d are both not transversals, thus clearly don't act as transversals to one another.

What is the range of the function y=2x+1 for the domain 2<=x<=5?
egoroff_w [7]
So domain is the number you can use
range is the output your get from inputting the domain given
so from 2≤x≤5
since it is linear, we can be sure that we only need to test the endpoints of the domain to find the endpoints of the range

sub 2 for x
y=2(2)+1
y=4+1
y=5

sub 5 for x
y=2(5)+1
y=10+1
y=11

so range is from 5 to 11
in interval notation: [5,11]
in other notation 5≤y≤11
or
R={y|5≤y≤11}

A triangle has an area of 9m2 and a base of 6m. how do I find the height of this triangle?
KonstantinChe [14]
You know the triangle has a base of 6 meters, and that the formula to find the area of a triangle is 1/2bh or one-half of the base times the height. So, you would plug in 9 meters squared=one half of six times h, or 9m^2=1/2(6)*(h). In simplifying this, you would get 3h=9m^2. Divide both sides by three and get h=3. Hope this helps, and if you need any further explanations, please let me know!
