(1 point) Some shrubs have the useful ability to resprout from their roots after their tops are destroyed. Fire is a particular

threat to shrubs in dry climates, as it can injure the roots as well as destroy the aboveground material. One study of resprouting took place in a dry area of Mexico. The investigation clipped the tops of samples of several species of shrubs. In some cases, they also applied a propane torch to the stumps to simulate a fire. Of 16 specimens of a particular species, 7 resprout after fire. Estimate with 99% confidence the proportion of all shrubs of this species that will resprout after fire.

Answer:

The answer is "0.45 \pm 0.18204"

Step-by-step explanation:

For the +4 sample proportion= \frac{(7+2)}{(16+4)} =  \frac{9}{20} = 0.45

Sample percentage measurements estimated stdev

= \sqrt{\frac{[(0.45)(1-0.45)]}{[(16+4)]}}\\\\ = \sqrt{\frac{[(0.45)(0.55)]}{[(20)]}}\\\\ = \sqrt{\frac{0.2475}{20}}\\\\= \sqrt{0.012375}\\\\=0.111

Calculating the critical z for a=0.1, two-tailed = 1.64

Calculating the confidence interval:

= 0.45 \pm 0.111 \times 1.64 \\\\= 0.45 \pm 0.18204

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

All of the zeros would be 2, -1 and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

When you set each of the factors equal to zero solve for x. The only one you can't is 3 because 3\neq 0\\

NEED URGENT HELP ON 5 QUESTIONS SIMILAR TO THIS!!!!! WILL GIBE BRAINLIEST AND 5 STARS IF CORRECT QUICKLY! - 50 POINT - also, no
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

As X → - ∞ , y → ∞ and as x→ ∞ , y → ∞

<h3>option c is the correct option.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

let f(x) = y = 3x² - 5x + 2

y = 3x² - 5x + 2

= x ( 3x - 5 ) + 2

y = ∞ ( 3 ( ∞ - 5 ) ) + 2

= ∞ (∞ ) + 2

y = ∞

y → ∞ as x → ∞

Now,

as x → - ∞

y = x ( 3x - 5 ) + 2

= ∞ ( 3 ( - ∞ ) - 5 ) + 2

= - ∞ ( - ∞ ) + 2

∞² + 2 = ∞

Hence , Option C is the correct answer.

If f(x) = -0.5x + 2.5 what is f(x) = 0 and what is f(0) ?
Taya2010 [7]
A) To find x for f(x) = 0, substitute the given information and solve for x.
.. f(x) = 0 = -0.5x +2.5
.. 0.5x = 2.5 . . . . . . . . . . add 0.5x
.. x = 2.5/0.5 = 5 . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

f(5) = -0.5*5 +2.5 = 0


b) f(0) = -0.5*0 +2.5 = 2.5
