Write 9,540,000 in expanded form using exponents to show powers of 10

krek1111 [17]

Answer:

$9* 10^{6}+ 5* 10^{5}+4* 10^{4}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : 9,540,000

To find : Write 9,540,000 in expanded form using exponents to show powers of 10.

Solution : We have given 9,540,000

Here 9 is at million place 9000000

5 is at hundred thousand place = 500,000.

4 is at tens thousand place = 40,000

We expanded it as

9, 000,000 + 500,000+40,000.

In term of power of 10.

$9* 10^{6}+ 5* 10^{5}+4* 10^{4}$ .

Therefore,

$9* 10^{6}+ 5* 10^{5}+4* 10^{4}$ .

Researchers fed mice a specific amount of Toxaphene, a poisonous pesticide, and studied their nervous systems to find out why To

Mkey [24]

Answer:

a. The mean refractory period= 1.85 and the standard error = 0.06455

b. 90% confidence interval for the mean absolute refractory period for all mice when subjected to the same treatment = 1.6981, 2.0019

c. Yes, the data give good evidence to support this theory

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The table below shows the calculations:

X (X-mean)^2

1.7 0.0225

1.8 0.0025

1.9 0.0025

2.0 0.0225

Total 7.4 0.05

Sample size: n=4

The mean is: \bar{x} = \frac{7.4}{4} = 1.85

The sample standard deviation, s = \sqrt{\frac{\sum \left ( x-\bar{x} \right )^{2}}{n-1}}=0.1291

The standard error, se= \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{0.1291}{2} = 0.06455

b. Degree of freedom: df = n-1 = 3

Critical value of t for 90% confidence interval is: 2.3534

The confidence interval is \bar{x}\pm t_{c}se = 1.85\pm 2.3534\cdot 0.06455=1.85\pm 0.1519 = (1.6981, 2.0019)

c. The Hypotheses are:

H_{0}:\mu=1.3,H_{1}:\mu>1.3

So the test statistics will be

t=\frac{\bar{x}-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=8.52

The p-value is: 0.0017

We reject the null hypothesis because p-value is less than 0.05 . This indicates that the data gave good evidence to support this theory.

A university found that 20% of its students withdraw without completing the introductory statistics course. Assume that 20 stude

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

a) $P(X \leq 2)= P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)$

And we can use the probability mass function and we got:

$P(X=0)=(20C0)(0.2)^0 (1-0.2)^{20-0}=0.0115$

$P(X=1)=(20C1)(0.2)^1 (1-0.2)^{20-1}=0.0576$

$P(X=2)=(20C2)(0.2)^2 (1-0.2)^{20-2}=0.1369$

And adding we got:

$P(X \leq 2)=0.0115+0.0576+0.1369 = 0.2061$

b) $P(X=4)=(20C4)(0.2)^4 (1-0.2)^{20-4}=0.2182$

c) $P(X>3) = 1-P(X \leq 3) = 1- [P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)]$

$P(X=0)=(20C0)(0.2)^0 (1-0.2)^{20-0}=0.0115$

$P(X=1)=(20C1)(0.2)^1 (1-0.2)^{20-1}=0.0576$

$P(X=2)=(20C2)(0.2)^2 (1-0.2)^{20-2}=0.1369$

$P(X=3)=(20C3)(0.2)^3 (1-0.2)^{20-3}=0.2054$

And replacing we got:

$P(X>3) = 1-[0.0115+0.0576+0.1369+0.2054]= 1-0.4114= 0.5886$

d) $E(X) = 20*0.2= 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=20, p=0.2)$

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

$P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}$

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

$nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}$

Part a

We want this probability:

$P(X \leq 2)= P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)$

And we can use the probability mass function and we got:

$P(X=0)=(20C0)(0.2)^0 (1-0.2)^{20-0}=0.0115$

$P(X=1)=(20C1)(0.2)^1 (1-0.2)^{20-1}=0.0576$

$P(X=2)=(20C2)(0.2)^2 (1-0.2)^{20-2}=0.1369$

And adding we got:

$P(X \leq 2)=0.0115+0.0576+0.1369 = 0.2061$

Part b

We want this probability:

$P(X=4)$

And using the probability mass function we got:

$P(X=4)=(20C4)(0.2)^4 (1-0.2)^{20-4}=0.2182$

Part c

We want this probability:

$P(X>3)$

We can use the complement rule and we got:

$P(X>3) = 1-P(X \leq 3) = 1- [P(X=0)+P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)]$

$P(X=0)=(20C0)(0.2)^0 (1-0.2)^{20-0}=0.0115$

$P(X=1)=(20C1)(0.2)^1 (1-0.2)^{20-1}=0.0576$

$P(X=2)=(20C2)(0.2)^2 (1-0.2)^{20-2}=0.1369$

$P(X=3)=(20C3)(0.2)^3 (1-0.2)^{20-3}=0.2054$

And replacing we got:

$P(X>3) = 1-[0.0115+0.0576+0.1369+0.2054]= 1-0.4114= 0.5886$

Part d

The expected value is given by:

$E(X) = np$

And replacing we got:

$E(X) = 20*0.2= 4$

The area of a circular field is 16π square miles. What is the diameter of the field in miles.

ella [17]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Divide the area (in square units) by Pi (approximately 3.14159).

2. Take the square root of the result. This is the radius.

3. Now double the radius to get the diameter
