A geologist examines 6 seawater samples for lead concentration. The mean lead concentration for the sample data is 0.903 cc/cubi

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to determine a 95% confidence interval for the mean lead concentration of sea water samples

Number of samples. n = 6

Mean, u = 0.903 cc/cubic meter

Standard deviation, s = 0.0566

For a confidence level of 95%, the corresponding z value is 1.96. This is determined from the normal distribution table.

We will apply the formula

Confidence interval

= mean +/- z ×standard deviation/√n

It becomes

0.903 +/- 1.96 × 0.0566/√6

= 0.903 +/- 1.96 × 0.0566/2.44948974278

= 0.903 +/- 0.045

The lower end of the confidence interval is 0.903 - 0.045 =0.858

The upper end of the confidence interval is 0.903 + 0.045 =0.948

Therefore, with 95% confidence interval, the mean lead concentration of the sea water is between 0.858 cc/cubic meter and 0.948 cc/cubic meter

Which transformation have been preformed on a graph of f(x)=x2 to obtained the graph of g(x) =-3(x+1)2-4?

avanturin [10]

Horizontal shift because g(x)=f(x+1) 1 unit left

Vertical shift because g(x)=f(x+1)-4 4 units down

Reflected across x-axis because g(x)=-f(x)

Vertically stretched because g(x)=3(f(x))

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to identify which transformation have been preformed on a graph of f(x)=x2 to obtained the graph of g(x) =-3(x+1)2-4?

Rules for transformation:

Horizontal shift: depends on the value h

if g(x)=f(x+h) then: the graph is shifted left h units

if g(x)=f(x-h) then: the graph is shifted right h units

Vertical Shift: depends on the value k

if g(x)=f(x)+k then: the graph is shifted up k units

if g(x)=f(x)-k then: the graph is shifted down k units

Reflection:

if g(x)=-f(x) then graph is reflected at x-axis

if g(x)=f(-x) then graph is reflected at y-axis

Vertical Stretch:

if g(x)=c.f(x) then graph is vertically stretched.

In the given question:

f(x)= x^2

g(x)=-3(x+1)^2-4

Applying the above rules of transformation:

The graph is:

Horizontal shift because g(x)=f(x+1) 1 unit left

Vertical shift because g(x)=f(x+1)-4 4 units down

Reflected across x-axis because g(x)=-f(x)

Vertically stretched because g(x)=3(f(x))

An electronics company makes communication devices for military contracts. The company just completed two contracts. The navy co

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

Workers of army contract were more productive.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine on which contract the workers were more productive compute the work done per hour by the workers for both contracts.

<u>Navy Contract</u>:

Number of devices = 2,300

Number of workers = 25

Number of weeks = 2 weeks

Number of hours per week = 40

The number of hours it took 25 workers to produce 2300 devices is =

$=25\times2\times40\\=2000\ hours$

Then number of devices produced in 1 hour is = $\frac{2300}{2000}= 1.15\ devices\ per\ hour$

<u>Army Contract</u>:

Number of devices = 5,500

Number of workers = 35

Number of weeks = 3 weeks

Number of hours per week = 40

The number of hours it took 35 workers to produce 5500 devices is = $=35\times3\times40\\=4200\ hours$

Then number of devices produced in 1 hour is = $\frac{5500}{4200}= 1.31\ devices\ per\ hour$

The workers for the army contract are more productive since they produce 1.31 devices per hour whereas the workers for navy contract produces 1.15 devices per hour.

Find the product.

Inga [223]

(2p + 7)(3p-9)
2p x 3p= 6p^2
2p x -9= -18p
7 x 3p=21p
7 x -9=-63
6p^2 - 18p + 21p - 63
6p^2 + 3p -63 is the answer.

The height of the plant is given by the equation h = 0.5d + 4. Rewrite this as a function rule where f(x) is the height, in cent

ad-work [718]

Answer:

Here's what I get

Step-by-step explanation:

h = 0.5d + 4

A function rule tells you how to convert an input value (x) into an output value (y).

Your function rule is

ƒ(x) = 0.5x + 4

An easy way to represent your function is to make a graph.

The easiest way to make a graph is to make a table containing some inputs and their corresponding outputs.

Here's a typical table.

$\begin{array}{cc}\textbf{x} &\textbf{y} \\0 & 4 \\2 & 5 \\4 & 6 \\6 & 7\\6 & 8 \\\end{array}$

The graph is like the one below.
