One way to measure whether the trees in the Wade Tract are uniformly distributed is to examine the average location in the north

-south or the east-west direction. The values range from 0 to 200, so if the trees are uniformly distributed, the average location should be 100, and any differences in the actual sample would be due to random chance. The actual sample mean in the north-south direction for the 584 trees in the tract is 99.74. A theoretical calculation for uniform distributions (the details are beyond the scope of this course) gives a standard deviation of 58. Carefully state the null and alternative hypotheses in terms of the true average north-south location. Test your hypotheses by reporting your results along with a short summary of your conclusions.

Answer:

Null hypothesis be H₀ : μ = 100

Alternative hypothesis Hₐ : μ < 100

There is sufficient statistical evidence to suggest that the average location of Wade Tract is 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have;

Let our null hypothesis be H₀ : μ = 100 Average location of trees in the Wade Tract is 100

Our alternative hypothesis becomes Hₐ : μ < 100 at 95% confidence level

Proposed average location in Wade Tract, μ = 100

Sample mean, \bar x = 99.74

Standard deviation, s = 58

Sample size, n = 584

The t test formula is therefore;

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

Therefore, with df = 584 -1 = 583, and α = (1 - 0.95)/2 = 0.025

We have t_{\alpha /2} = -1.65

Plugging in the values into the t test formula, we have t = -0.108338, from which the p-value is given as p = 0.4569 which is much more than the value of α, therefore, we accept the null hypothesis as follows;

There is sufficient statistical evidence to suggest that the average location of Wade Tract = 100.

Circle A has an area of 452.16ft2. With a radius of 12 ft. If circle B has a radius of 17 ft, what is it’s area?
ehidna [41]

Answer: 907.92 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To solve this problem you must apply the formula for calculate the area of a circle, which is shown below:

A=r^{2}\pi

Where r is the radius of the circle.

2. You know the radius of the circle B, therefore, when you susbtitute it into the formula, you obtain that the area of the circle B is:

A_B=(17ft)^{2}\pi=907.92ft^{2}

Alexxandr [17]

Answer: 17000000 ounces of gold were mined in that country that year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of ounces of gold that were mined in that country that year.

Approximately 1,870,000 oz of gold went into the manufacturing of electronic equipment in a certain country in 1 year. This was 11% of all the gold mined in that country that year. This means that

11/100 × x = 1870000

0.11x = 1870000

x = 1870000/0.11

x = 17000000

A jet flies over the Air Force Base at 10:20 a.m. At 10:32 a.m., the plane passes over the Navy Base Station, 120 miles away. Ho
kati45 [8]
So first calculate the time between the plane flied over the Air Force Bases (AFB) and Navy Base Station (NBS):
(time passed Air Force Bases) - (time passed Air Force Bases) = 10:32 - 10:20 = 12 mins
Since we know the distance that plane travel from AFB to NBS is 120 miles and the plane traveled that distance within 12 minutes.
We have
120 miles / 12 minutes = 10 miles / minute
Calculate it into miles per hour (60 minutes):
10 miles/minute x 60 minutes = 600 miles per hour.
