Answer: 9.725 ≤ x ≤ 9.734

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 9.73 is rounded, then we need to look at the next digit after the last one of 9.73, this would be the third digit after the decimal point.

We know that if this digit is smaller than 5, then we round down.

Then the largest number that can be rounded down to 9.73 is:

9.734

Now we want to find the smallest number that can be rounded up to 9.73

We know that if the next digit is 5 or bigger, then we round up.

Then the number 9.725 is rounded up to 9.73

And this is the smallest number that can be rounded up to 9.73

Then the error interval is:

9.725 ≤ x ≤ 9.734

Amy, a nature photographer, randomly sampled photographs she took within the last year. She wanted to find out how many of her p

Sveta_85 [38]

The Constructed confidence interval for the proportion of her photographs taken within the last year contained flowers is

$CI\ E(0.57,0.65)$

From the question we are told that:

The proportion of photographs that had flowers P= 0.61

Margin of error of M.E= 0.04

Generally, the equation for Confidence interval for proportion is mathematically given by

$CI=0.61 \pm 0.04$ P \pm M.E

Therefore Confidence interval is

$CI=0.61 \pm 0.04$

And can also be written as

$CI\ E((0.61+0.04),0.61-0.04))$

$CI\ E(0.57,0.65)$

In conclusion the Confidence interval is

$CI\ E(0.57,0.65)$

a. Find the slant height of the cone. The slant height is the distance from the apex, or tip, to the base along the cone’s later

timama [110]

I kind-of need more specifics here. You didn't give any dimensions, but okay. So if you notice, from the side, any cone just looks like a regular old triangle. And we can treat it like one when trying to find the slant height. Ever heard of the Pythagorean theorem? a squared plus b squared = c squared. so in this case, the hypotenuse, or c-side, will be your slant height. take the square of the distance from the circle-base's center to the apex. add that to the square of the radius of the base. Find the square root (using your calculator) of that sum, and there's your answer.

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Morgan family picked 144 Braeburn apples, 96 Cortland apples, 72 Fuji apples and 48 Rome apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B, C, F and R represent Braeburn apples, Cortland apples, Fuji apples, and Rome apples respectively.

We have been given that Morgan family picked a total of 360 apples. We can represent this information in an equation as:

$B+C+F+R=360...(1)$
