Wetlands Government agencies carefully monitor water quality and its effect on wetlands (Reference: Environmental Protection Age

ncy Wetland Report EPA 832-R-93-005). Of particular concern is the concentration of nitrogen in water draining from fertilized lands. Too much nitrogent can kill fish and wildlife. Twenty-eight samples of water were taken at random from a lake. The nitrogen concentration (milliagrams of nitrogen per liter of water) was determined for each sample.
a) Identify the variable.
b) is the variable quantitatie or qualitative?
c) What is the implied population?

Answer:

a. Concentration of nitrogen in water draining from fertilized lands

b. Quantitative

c. Water draining from fertilized lands

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Here we are evaluating the Concentration in miligrams of Nitrogen per liter of water, that drains from fertilized lands.. So thats what is defined as the variable.

b. When we talk about qualitative variblaes, we refer to variables that we can't define with numbers. For example the colour of a car, that's a qualitative variable. In this problem, can put a number on the nitrogen concetration. When we can measure the variable with numbers we consider it to be a quantitative variable. Therefore this is a  quantitative variable

c. The implied population is the population where we want to interfer the analysis. In here we want to know the concentration of water draining from fertilized lands. So we are using random samples from a lake, and we extrapolate that analysis to a bigger universe, that it´s the water draining from fertilized lands

A large washer has an outer radius of 10mm and a hole with a diameter of 14mm. What is the area of the top surface of the washer
choli [55]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The area of the top surface of the washer is:  160.14 square mm.

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

The top of the surface is in the shape of a annulus  with a outer radius of 10 mm and a inner radius of 7 mm ( since the diameter of the hole is: 14 mm and we know that the radius is half of the diameter)

Now, we know that the area of the annulus region is given by:

Area=\pi (R^2-r^2)

where R is the outer radius and r is the inner radius.

Here we have:

R=10\ mm\\\\and\\\\r=7\ mm

Hence, we have:

Area\ of\ top\ surface=\pi (10^2-7^2)\\\\i.e.\\\\Area\ of\ top\ surface=\pi (100-49)\\\\i.e.\\\\Area\ of\ top\ surface=\pi\cdot 51\\\\i.e.\\\\Area\ of\ top\ surface=160.14\ mm^2

Consider the following scenario:
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

1. P(C AND D) = 0.3

2. (C.) C and D are not mutually exclusive because P(C AND D) ≠ 0

3. (A.) The events are not independent because P(C | D) ≠ P(C)

4.P(D | C) = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

• Let P(C) = 0.4

• Let P(D) = 0.5

• Let P(C | D) = 0.6

1.) Find P(C AND D).

P(C | D) = \frac{P(C n D)}{P(D)} \\P(C n D) = P(C | D) * P(D)\\P(C n D) = 0.6 * 0.5\\P(C n D) = 0.3

2.) Events can be mutually exclusive meaning the both event cannot happen at the same time. So, P(A and B) = 0

3.) Events can be "Independent", meaning each event is not affected by any other events.

4.) Find P(D | C)

P(D | C) = \frac{P (D n C)}{P(C)}\\P(D n C) = 0.5 * 0.4 = 0.2\\P(D | C) = \frac{0.2}{0.4}\\P(D | C) = 0.5

This set of points are connected to form a line segment. What is its length? A = (3,5) and B = (3,6) *
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

d(A,B)=1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find distance between points A(xA,yA) and B(xB,yB), we use formula:

d(A,B)=(xB−xA)2+(yB−yA)2−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√

In this example: xA=3 , yA=5 , xB=3 and yB=6 so:

d(A,B)d(A,B)d(A,B)=(3−3)2+(6−5)2−−−−−−−−−−−−−−−√=0+1−−−−√=1

What is the distance between (2, 6) and (7, 6)?
DedPeter [7]

Answer: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

D = √(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²

x₁ =2 y₁ =6 x₂ =7 y₂ =6

D =√(7-2)² +(6-6)²

D=√(5)² +(0)²

D =√25

D=5
