Please help! i don’t understand this question thank youuuu

True or false this number is written in scientific notation? <br> .2486 x 10^12

Scilla [17]

Answer:

It is true because scientific notation is a way of writing very large or very small numbers. A number is written in scientific notation when a number between 1 and 10 is multiplied by a power of 10. For example, 650,000,000 can be written in scientific notation as 6.5 ✕ 10^8.

PLS HELP. WILL MARK BRAINLIEST In a capture/recapture program, 26% of the animals recaptured have tags. Suppose 118 animals we

Mars2501 [29]

Total Population= 11800÷26

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of animals captured,tagged and released= 118

In capture/recapture program 26% have tags

i.e, 26% of total animals= 118

Let total number of animals = P

(26÷100)× P =118

26 P =118×100

P=11800÷26

A machine that fills beverage cans is supposed to put 12 ounces of beverage in each can. The standard deviation of the amount in

erica [24]

Answer:

$\chi^2 =\frac{10-1}{0.0144} 0.0217 =13.54$

The degrees of freedom are:

$df=n-1=10-1=9$

Now we can calculate the p value using the alternative hypothesis:

$p_v =2*P(\chi^2 >13.54)=0.279$

Since the p value is higher than the signficance level assumed of 0.05 we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and there is no evidence to conclude that the true deviation differs from 0.12 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the following data:"12.14 12.05 12.27 11.89 12.06

12.14 12.05 12.38 11.92 12.14"

We can calculate the sample deviation with this formula:

$s =\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}$

$n=10$ represent the sample size

$\alpha=0.05$ represent the confidence level

$s^2 =0.0217$ represent the sample variance

$\sigma^2_0 =0.12^2= 0.0144$ represent the value to verify

Null and alternative hypothesis

We want to determine whether the standard deviation differs from 0.12 ounce, so the system of hypothesis would be:

Null Hypothesis: $\sigma^2 = 0.0144$

Alternative hypothesis: $\sigma^2 \neq 0.0144$

The statistic can be calculated like this;

$\chi^2 =\frac{n-1}{\sigma^2_0} s^2$

$\chi^2 =\frac{10-1}{0.0144} 0.0217 =13.54$

The degrees of freedom are:

$df=n-1=10-1=9$

Now we can calculate the p value using the alternative hypothesis:

$p_v =2*P(\chi^2 >13.54)=0.279$

Since the p value is higher than the signficance level assumed of 0.05 we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and there is no evidence to conclude that the true deviation differs from 0.12 ounces

To investigate if there is an association between eating red meat and the health of individuals, researchers used data from a na

Reika [66]

Answer:

a) Observational study

b) No

c) No

-Eating habits

-Age

-Health hystory

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

An observational study is one where the investigator has no control or intervenes on it. He just defines the variable of interest and merely collects and documents the information. These types of studies are usually made as precursors to a more formal experimental study, to have an idea of what's to be expected from the population.

In this example, the researcher merely took the information of interest from the survey that was taken. The researcher did not intervene in any way in the experiment. Because of the lack of intervention from the researcher, it is not valid to use the conclusions of this experiment to generalize to all American adults. For instance, it is not sure that the sample is representative, all people responding to the survey may be healthy or have certain eating habits. This also shows that many confusing factors are not taken into account like:

-eating habits (from eating healthy to extreme cases like being vegetarian/vegan or eating only fast food)

-age, the age range is not defined, if the sample is taken from surveys answered by people in their early 20s it will be different in both eating habits and health information as if the interviewees are in their 30s or 40s

-before health issues, there can be other health conditions that may be affecting the interviewees.

I hope it helps!
