A wildlife refuge in South America has howler monkeys and spider monkeys. A biologist working there randomly selected eight adul

ts of each type of monkey, weighted them, and recorded their weights in pounds. Howler monkey: {15,16,17,17,17,17,18,19} spider monkey: {12,13,13,14,14,14,16,16} (A) calculate the mean and Mad for each type of monkey. (B) calculate the means -to-MAD ration for the two types of monkeys. (C) what inference can be made about the weight of both types of monkeys? Explain.

Answer:

Given:

howler monkey: {15, 16, 17, 17, 17, 17, 18, 19}

spider monkey: {12, 13, 13, 14, 14, 14, 16, 16}

The mean of the first set (howler monkey) = (15 + 16 + 17 + 17 + 17 +17 + 18 + 19)/ 8 

The sum of all weights is divided by the number of monkeys weighed (n = 8)

mean = 17

Do the same for the second set (spider monkey) = 12+ 13 + 13+ 14 + 14+ 14 +14 +16 + 16 / 8

mean = 15.75

The ratio of the two is 17:15.75 or 1.08 is to 1.

The functions g and h are given by g(x) = x + 1 and h(x) = x²
Delvig [45]

Answer:

x = - \frac{3}{2} , x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find h(g(x)) substitute x = g(x) into h(x) , that is

h(g(x))

= h(x + 1)

= (x + 1)²

= x² + 2x + 1

For h(g(x)) = 3x² + x - 5 , then

3x² + x - 5 = x² + 2x + 1 ← subtract x² + 2x + 1 from both sides

2x² - x - 6 = 0 ← in standard form

(2x + 3)(x - 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

2x + 3 = 0 ⇒ 2x = - 3 ⇒ x = - \frac{3}{2}

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2
