Answer:

88 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

8x-3x=5x

40 cars = 5x

divide both sides by 5

x=8 cars

8x+3x=11x

11x=88 cars altogether

Find the area of a regular pentagon with side equal to 3 and apothem equal to K
viva [34]

a regular polygon has all equal sides.


a PENTA=5, pentagon has 5 sides, so a regular pentagon has 5 equal sides.


\bf \textit{area of a polygon}\\\\ A=\cfrac{1}{2}ap~~ \begin{cases} a=apothem\\ p=perimeter\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ a=K\\ p=\stackrel{3+3+3+3+3}{15} \end{cases}\implies A=\cfrac{1}{2}K15\implies A=\cfrac{15}{2}K

Allen�s hummingbird (Selasphorus sasin ) has been studied by zoologist Bill Alther A small group of 15 Allen� s hummingbirds has
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

1) 80% CI: [3.04; 3.26]gr

d= 0.11

2) n= 28 hummingbirds

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The study variable of this experiment is:

X: the weight of a hummingbird. (gr)

And it has a normal distribution, symbolically: X~N(μ;σ²)

And (I hope I got it correctly) its population standard deviation is σ= 0.33

There was a sample of n= 15 hummingbirds taken, its sample mean X[bar]= 3.15 gr

1) You need to construct an 80% Confidence Interval for the population mean of the hummingbird's weight.

Since the study variable has a normal distribution, you can use either the standard normal distribution or the Student's t distribution. Both are useful to estimate the population mean. Since the population standard variance is known, the best choice is the Standard normal.

Z= <u> X[bar] - μ </u>~ N(0;1)

       σ/√n

The formula for the interval is:

X[bar] ± Z_{1- \alpha /2} * (σ/√n)

Z_{1- \alpha /2}= Z_{0.90} = 1.28

3.15 ± 1.28 * (0.33/√15)

[3.04; 3.26]gr

The margin of error (d) of a confidence interval is hal its amplitude (a)

a= Upper bond - Lower bond

d= (Upper bond - Lower bond)/2

d= \frac{(3.26-3.04)}{2} = 0.11

2) You need to calculate a sample size for a 80% Confidence interval for the average weight of the hummingbirds with a margin of error of d= 0.08

As I said before, the margin of error is half the amplitude of the interval, the formula you use to estimate the population mean has the following structure:

"point estamator" ± "margin of error"

Then the margin of error is:

d= Z_{1- \alpha /2} * (σ/√n)

Now what you have to do is rewrite the formula based on the sample size

d= Z_{1- \alpha /2} * (σ/√n)

\frac{d}{Z_{1- \alpha /2}}= σ/√n

√n * \frac{d}{Z_{1- \alpha /2}}= σ

√n = σ * \frac{Z_1- \alpha /2}{d}

n = (σ * \frac{Z_1- \alpha /2}{d})²

n=  (0.33 * \frac{1.28}{0.08})²

n= 27.8784 ≅ 28 hummingbirds.

I hope it helps!
