Answer:

341.95≤x≤358.95

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval formula is expressed as;

CI = xbar±(z×s/√n)

xbar is the mean sample

s is the standard deviation

z is the z score at 95% confidence interval

n is the sample size

xbar = 350kg

z = 1.96

s = 25kg

n = 30

Substitute

CI = 350±(1.96×25/√30)

CI = 350±(1.96×4.564)

CI = 350±(8.946)

CI = (350-8.946, 350+8.946)

CI = (341.05, 358.95)

Hence the 95% confidence interval for how much food the elephant eats us 341.95≤x≤358.95

Two planes are heading toward each other. One plane is traveling at 450 mph, and the other plane is traveling at 375 mph. What i
gavmur [86]

Answer:

the rate at which the distance between the planes is changing is 825 each hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the rate at which the distance between the planes is changing is shown below

= Travelling one plane + travelling another plane

= 450 mph + 375 mph

= 825 mi each hour

Therefore the rate at which the distance between the planes is changing is 825  each hour

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

A triangle has side lengths of 9 in, 13 in, and 20 in. What is the measurement of this triangle's largest angle?
Rama09 [41]

1. Given any triangle ABC with sides BC=a, AC=b and AB=c, the following are true :

     i) the larger the angle, the larger the side in front of it, and the other way around as well. (Sine Law) Let a=20 in, then the largest angle is angle A.

      ii) Given the measures of the sides of a triangle. Then the cosines of any of the angles can be found by the following formula:

       a^{2}=b ^{2}+c ^{2}-2bc(cosA)

2.

20^{2}=9 ^{2}+13 ^{2}-2*9*13(cosA)

400=81+169-234(cosA)   150=-234(cosA)

cosA=150/-234= -0.641

3. m(A) = Arccos(-0.641)≈130°,

4. Remark: We calculate Arccos with a scientific calculator or computer software unless it is one of the well known values, ex Arccos(0.5)=60°, Arccos(-0.5)=120° etc
