Dairy cows at large commercial farms often receive injections of bST (Bovine Somatotropin), a hormone used to spur milk producti

on. Bauman et al. (Journal of Dairy Science, 1989) reported that 12 cows given bST produced an average of 28.0 kg/d of milk. Assume that the standart deviation of milk production is 2.25 kg/d. (a) Find a 99% confidence interval for the true mean milk production. Round your answers to two decimal places (e.g. 98.76).

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the true mean milk production is between 26.33 kg/d and 29.67 kg/d.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.005

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of 1 - \alpha.

That is z with a pvalue of 1 - 0.005 = 0.995, so Z = 2.575.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

In which \sigma is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

M = 2.575\frac{2.25}{\sqrt{12}} = 1.67

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 28 - 1.67 = 26.33 kg/d.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 28 + 1.67 = 29.67 kg/d.

The 99% confidence interval for the true mean milk production is between 26.33 kg/d and 29.67 kg/d.

0.5 + 6.38= 6.9 because 0.5 is precise to the tenth digit, so the answer must also be rounded to the nearest tenth.
mylen [45]

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

0.5 + 6.38= 6.88

In general you'd round your answer to the greatest level of precision used in the question, not the least.

Noah’s dog weighs 15 1⁄3 pounds (lbs). Aiden’s dog weighs three times as much as Noah’s. How many pounds does Aiden’s dog weigh?
SpyIntel [72]
<h3>Answer:  46 pounds</h3>

===============================================

Work Shown:

N = weight of Noah's dog = 15 & 1/3 pounds

A = weight of Aiden's dog = unknown

A = 3*N

A = 3*(15 & 1/3)

A = 3*(15 + 1/3)

A = 3*15 + 3*(1/3) .... distribute

A = 45 + 1

A = 46

Aiden's dog weighs 46 pounds.

PLEASE HURRY IM GIVING BRAINLIEST AND 50 POINTS!!! for the function g(x) = x - 2x^2, find g(-3) + 13
Inessa [10]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

If we have g(-3) we plug -3 into our function as x.

-3-2(-3)²

-3-2(9)

-3-18

-21

g(-3) is -21, so now we just add 13.

-21+13=-8

The answer is -8.

Have a wonderful day! :D
