The area of a rectangular pool is 6365 m2. If the length of the pool is 95 m, what is its width?

Function A and Function B are linear functions. Compare the two functions and choose all that are correct.

Olegator [25]

Answer:

2 .The slope of Function A is less than the slope of Function B

Step-by-step explanation:

A graph of Function A shows it has a y-intercept of 4, the same as that of Function B. (Statements 3 and 4 are not correct.)

The slope of Function A is 2, which is less than the slope of 3 that Function B has. (Statement 2 is correct; statement 1 is not.)

More detailed working

The slope of Function A can be figured easily between the points with x-values that differ by 1:

m = (y3 -y2)/(x3 -x2) = (24-22)/(10-9) = 2/1 = 2 . . . . . Fun A has slope of 2.

The slope of Function B is the coefficient of x in the equation: 3.

__

The y-intercept of Function A can be found starting with point-slope form:

y -22 = 2(x -9)

y = 2x -18 +22

y = 2x +4 . . . . . . . slope-intercept form

The intercept of +4 is the same as that of Function B.

A veterinarian does research on the causes of enteroliths, stones that develop in the colon of horses. She suspects that feeding

dsp73

Answer:

On average, horses with and without enteroliths are fed the same amount of alfalfa per month

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The veterinarian wants to research if eating alfalfa causes horses to have enteroliths.

The study variables are:

X₁: number of alfalfa flakes eaten over a month by a horse with enteroliths.

X₂: number of alfalfa flakes eaten over a month by a horse free of enteroliths.

She calculated a CI interval, with level 1 - α and the interval contained the cero.

With a significance level α, the hypotheses are:

H₀: μ₁ - μ₂ = 0

H₁: μ₁ - μ₂ ≠ 0

To decide whether you should reject or not the null hypothesis using a Confidence Interval is the following:

If the CI contains the number stated in the null hypothesis, the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis.

If the CI doesn't contain the number stated in the null hypothesis, then the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

Since the interval contains the cero, if 1 - α and α are complementary, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

This means that at a level of significance of α, you can conclude that there is no difference between the population means of the numbers of alfalfa flakes eaten by horses with or without enteroliths.

I hope it helps!

A researcher compares the effectiveness of two different instructional methods for teaching electronics. A sample of 138 student

yan [13]

Answer:

The 98% confidence interval for the true difference between testing averages for students using Method 1 and students using Method 2 is (-8.04, 0.84).

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - α)% confidence interval for the difference between population means is:

$CI=(\bar x_{1}-\bar x_{2})\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times \sqrt{\frac{\sigma^{2}_{1}}{n_{1}}+\frac{\sigma^{2}_{2}}{n_{2}}}$

The information provided is as follows:

$n_{1}= 138\\n_{2}=156\\\bar x_{1}=61\\\bar x_{2}=64.6\\\sigma_{1}=18.53\\\sigma_{2}=13.43$

The critical value of z for 98% confidence level is,

$z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.02/2}=2.326$

Compute the 98% confidence interval for the true difference between testing averages for students using Method 1 and students using Method 2 as follows:

$CI=(\bar x_{1}-\bar x_{2})\pm z_{\alpha/2}\times \sqrt{\frac{\sigma^{2}_{1}}{n_{1}}+\frac{\sigma^{2}_{2}}{n_{2}}}$

$=(61-64.6)\pm 2.326\times\sqrt{\frac{(18.53)^{2}}{138}+\frac{(13.43)^{2}}{156}}\\\\=-3.6\pm 4.4404\\\\=(-8.0404, 0.8404)\\\\\approx (-8.04, 0.84)$

Thus, the 98% confidence interval for the true difference between testing averages for students using Method 1 and students using Method 2 is (-8.04, 0.84).
