An ornithologist has 4 bird feeders at separate locations. She wonders if birds are equally likely to visit each of the feeders.

She recorded data for a sample of 300 recent visits. Here are the results:
Feeder 1 2 3 4
Observed visits 60 90 92 58
A test is performed to determine if these results suggest that birds visit one specific feeder more often than the other feeders. What is the xa test statistic?
a. 13.71
b. 0
c. 14.37
d. 3
e. 1028

Answer:

the x² test statistic 13.71

Option a) 13.71 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Feeder                     1      2      3       4

Observed visits; o_i  60   90   92    58

data sample = 300

Expected e_i = 300 / 4 = 75

the x² test statistic = ?

X^2_{stat = ∑[ (o_i - e_i)²/e_i]

X^2_{stat = [ (60 - 75)² / 75 ] + [ (90 - 75)² / 75 ] + [ (92 - 75)² / 75 ] + [ (58 - 75)² / 75 ]

X^2_{stat = [ 3 ] + [ 3 ] + [ 3.8533 ] + [ 3.8533 ]

X^2_{stat = 13.7066 ≈ 13.71

Therefore, the x² test statistic 13.71

Option a) 13.71 is the correct answer.

A certain compound has a half-life of four days. Write and use an exponential decay function to find the amount of compound rema
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

1.97 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

-The exponential decay function is given by the formula:

P_t=P_oe^{-rt}\\\\

Given that the half-life is 4 days, we can substitute in the formula to solve the rate of decay for a single half-life:

P_t=P_oe^{rt}\\\\P_t=0.5P_o\\\\\therefore 0.5=e^{-4r}\\\\-4r=In(0.5)\\\\r=0.17329

#Since, 1 week has 7 days, 3 weeks is a 21-day period, thus, t=21.

#We substitute and solve for the amount remaining after 21days of decay:

P_t=P_oe^{-rt}\\\\=75e^{-21\times 0.17329}\\\\=1.97072\\\\\approx1.97 \ oz

Hence, the amount remaining after 3 weeks of decays is approximately 1.97 ounces

The sum of three number is -44.85. One of the numbers is 24.6. The other two number are equal to each other. What is the value o
tiny-mole [99]
Let the number be x. The other number is also x.

Given the first number is 24.6 and sum is -44.85
24.6 + x + x = -44.85

Combine like terms:
2x + 24.6 = -44.85

Add 24.6 on both sides:
2x = -44.85 - 24.6

Evaluate Right Hand Side:
2x = -69.45

Divide both sides by 2:
x =- 34.725

Answer: The two numbers are both  -34.725.
