A genetic experiment with peas resulted in one sample of offspring that consisted of 438 green peas and 173 yellow peas.

Answer:

a

The 95% confidence interval is 0.2474 < p < 0.3188

b

  The result obtained does not contradict expectation

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The number of green peas is  k =  438

   The number of yellow peas is u =  173

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as

       n  =  k + u

=>    n  = 438 + 173

=>    n  = 611

Generally the sample proportion for yellow peas is

      \^ p = \frac{u}{n}

=>   \^ p = \frac{173}{611 }

=>   \^ p = 0.2831

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      \alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%

=>   \alpha = 0.05

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  \frac{\alpha }{2} is  

   Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.96

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

     E =  Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{\frac{\^ p (1- \^ p)}{n} }

=>  E =  1.96 * \sqrt{\frac{ 0.2831 (1- 0.2831)}{611} }

=>  E =  0.0357

Generally 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      \^ p -E <  p <  \^ p +E

=>     0.2831  -0.0357

=>     0.2474 < p < 0.3188

From the question we are told that it was expected that 25% of the offspring peas will be yellow

   Now from the 95% confidence interval obtained we see that the expected sample proportion(25% ) falls within it so  it means that the result obtained does not contradict expectation

4(b+1) ≤ 2(2b+1)+1<br> Is this equation no solution?<br> Very important
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

it does not have a solution

Step-by-step explanation:

4(b + 1) ≤ 2(2b + 1)+1

4b + 4 ≤ 4b + 2 + 1

0 ≤ -1

0 isn't less than or equal to -1

Jeb is the local tennis pro at the country club, and he needs to know at what height the tennis ball needs to be when he hits it
suter [353]

Answer:

The height from ground, at which Jeb needs to hit the ball is 7.8 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The distance away the tennis ball is hit = 20 meters;

The height of the tennis net = 0.3 m

The distance from the net the ball lands = 4 meters

The time the ball takes to land from the 0.3 m net height is given as follows;

t = √(h/(1/2×g)) = √(0.3/(1/2 × 9.8)) ≈ 0.2474

t ≈ 0.2474 seconds

The speed of the ball = Distance/Time = 4/0.2474 ≈ 16.166

The speed of the ball ≈ 16.166 m/s

The time it takes the ball to reach the net = 20/16.166 ≈ 1.24

The time it takes the ball to reach the net, tₓ ≈ 1.24 seconds

The height, hₓ the ball falls in 1.24 seconds is given as follows;

hₓ = 1/2·g·tₓ² = 1/2 × 9.8 × 1.24² = 7.5

The height, hₓ the ball falls in 1.24 seconds = 7.5 m

The height the ball falls in the time taken to reach the net from 20 meters = The height, hₓ the ball falls in 1.24 seconds

Therefore, the height at which Jeb needs to hit the ball = The height the ball falls in the time taken to reach the net from 20 meters + The height of the net = 7.5 m + 0.3 m = 7.8 m

The height at which Jeb needs to hit the ball = 7.8 m

Find the missing side (X) round to the nearest hundredth
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

\displaystyle 18,28 ≈ x

Step-by-step explanation:

\displaystyle \frac{x}{11} = csc\:37 \hookrightarrow 11csc\:37 = x \hookrightarrow 18,278041552... = x \\ \\ 18,28 \approx x

<em>OR</em>

\displaystyle \frac{11}{x} = sin\:37 \hookrightarrow xsin\:37 = 11 \hookrightarrow \frac{11}{sin\:37} = x \hookrightarrow 18,278041552... = x \\ \\ 18,28 \approx x

Information on trigonometric ratios

\displaystyle \frac{OPPOCITE}{HYPOTENUSE} = sin\:θ \\ \frac{ADJACENT}{HYPOTENUSE} = cos\:θ \\ \frac{OPPOCITE}{ADJACENT} = tan\:θ \\ \frac{HYPOTENUSE}{ADJACENT} = sec\:θ \\ \frac{HYPOTENUSE}{OPPOCITE} = csc\:θ \\ \frac{ADJACENT}{OPPOCITE} = cot\:θ

I am joyous to assist you at any time.

Can someone please explain the math on this one to me? Thanks!
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

18 men = 36 tons in 6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

3 men = 1 ton in 1 hour

6 men = 2 ton in 1 hour

9 men = 3 tons in 1 hour

with this you find a pattern

3 men = 2 tons in 2 hours

3 men = 3 tons in 3 hours

3 men = 6 tons in 6 hours

6 men = 12 tons in 6 hours

9 men = 18 tons in 6 hours

12 men = 24 tons in 6 hours

15 men = 30 tons in 6 hours

18 men = 36 tons in 6 hours

(This is how i worked it out)
