Meteorology A Weather forecaster uses a barometer to measure air pressure and make weather predictions. Suppose a standard mercu

ry barometer reads 29.8 in. The mercury rises 0.02 in. And then false 0.09 in . The mercury falls again 0.18 in. Before rising 0.07 in. What does the word "rise" suggest? What does the word "fall" suggest?

Answer:

rise : atmospheric pressure increases

fall : atmospheric pressure decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

In the context, it is given that a weather forecaster takes the help of the barometer to check the air pressure and predicts the weather. The column of mercury level in the barometer shows a rise or fall in the glass tube as the weight of the atmosphere falling on the mercury surface changes.

Here it is given that the mercury rises for 0.02 in, then it falls 0.09 in,  it then rises by 0.07 in and then again falls by 0.18 in. The word "rise" here shows that the weight of the atmosphere is more. In other words, increase in atmospheric pressure increases the level of mercury in the glass tube and the decrease in or "fall" in the mercury level shows the drop in atmospheric pressure.

What is the 100th term in the list?1017243138
Studentka2010 [4]

the sequence starts at 10 and increases by 7 each time, thefore a possible sequence identification is:

\begin{gathered} a_n=7n+3 \\ \text{Let's verify:} \\ a_1=7(1)+3=7+3=10 \\ a_2=7(2)+3=14+3=17 \\ a_3=7(3)+3=21+3=24 \\ \text{and so on} \\ \text{.} \\ \text{.} \\ \text{.} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the 100th term is:

a_{100}=7(100)+3=700+3=703

In June 2005, a CBS News/NY Times poll asked a random sample of 1,111 U.S. adults the following question: "What do you think is
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The appropriate null hypothesis is H_0: p = 0.25

The appropriate alternative hypothesis is H_1: p < 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Exactly a year prior to this poll, in June of 2004, it was estimated that roughly 1 out of every 4 U.S. adults believed (at that time) that the war in Iraq was the most important problem facing the country.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is still the same, that is, of \frac{1}{4} = 0.25. So

H_0: p = 0.25

We would like to test whether the 2005 poll provides significant evidence that the proportion of U.S. adults who believe that the war in Iraq is the most important problem facing the U.S. has decreased since the prior poll.

Decreased, so at the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the proportion is less than 0.25, that is:

H_1: p < 0.25
