jenyasd209 [6]

Answer: 336g.

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula for density is mass divided by volume (m/v). In this problem, you mus first find the volume of the square block. The formula for volume is length multiplied by width multiplied by height (LxWxH). To solve for volume you plug in the values to the equation: 6x4x2 = 48.

Now, you have the volume, and you have the density. Now you need to solve for mass. Plug in the values you have into the density equation (d=m/v):

7=m/48

to isolate M, multiply each side by 48. this leaves you with 7x48 = m. now all thats left is to solve. 7x48 = 336g. You can double check by plugging the values back into the equation. 336/48 = 7.

Researchers would like to test if the mean bone mineral density is different for the three different groups. Conduct an ANOVA te

laiz [17]

Answer:

<em>H</em>₀: <em>μ₁ = μ₂= μ₃</em>

<em>Hₐ: </em>At least one of the means is different.

Step-by-step explanation:

Analysis of variance or ANOVA test is used to determine whether the means of different groups are similar or not.

The hypothesis of an ANOVA test for <em>n</em> homogeneous groups is:

$H_{0}: \mu_{1}= \mu_{2}= \mu_{3}...= \mu_{n}\\H_{a}: At\ least\ one\ of\ the\ means\ is\ different$

In this case the researcher is testing whether the mean bone mineral density is different for the three different groups.

The hypothesis for this test can be defined as follows:

<em>H</em>₀: The mean bone mineral density is not different for the three different groups, i.e. <em>μ₁ = μ₂= μ₃</em>

<em>Hₐ: </em>The mean bone mineral density is different for the three different groups, i.e. at least one of the means is different.

A recent study suggested that 70% of all eligible voters will vote in the next presidential election. Suppose 20 eligible voters

natita [175]

Answer:

0.0479 = 4.79% probability that fewer than 11 of them will vote

Step-by-step explanation:

For each voter, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they will vote, or they will not. The probability of a voter voting is independent of any other voter, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

In which $C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

And p is the probability of X happening.

70% of all eligible voters will vote in the next presidential election.

This means that $p = 0.7$

20 eligible voters were randomly selected from the population of all eligible voters.

This means that $n = 20$

What is the probability that fewer than 11 of them will vote?

This is:

$P(X < 11) = P(X = 10) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 0)$

In which

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 10) = C_{20,10}.(0.7)^{10}.(0.3)^{10} = 0.0308$

$P(X = 9) = C_{20,9}.(0.7)^{9}.(0.3)^{11} = 0.0120$

$P(X = 8) = C_{20,8}.(0.7)^{8}.(0.3)^{12} = 0.0039$

$P(X = 7) = C_{20,7}.(0.7)^{7}.(0.3)^{13} = 0.0010$

$P(X = 6) = C_{20,10}.(0.7)^{6}.(0.3)^{12} = 0.0002$

$P(X = 5) = C_{20,5}.(0.7)^{5}.(0.3)^{15} \approx 0$

The probability of 5 or less voting is very close to 0, so they will not affect the outcome. Then

$P(X < 11) = P(X = 10) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 8) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 0) = 0.0308 + 0.0120 + 0.0039 + 0.0010 + 0.0002 = 0.0479$

0.0479 = 4.79% probability that fewer than 11 of them will vote

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (0, -4) and (-4, 6)?

olganol [36]

Answer:

The equation of the line is.

$y=-\frac{5}{2}x-4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The given points are (0, -4) and (-4, 6)

The equation of the line passing through the points $(x_{1},y_{1})$ and $(x_{2},y_{2})$ is.

$\frac{x-x_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\frac{y-y_{1}}{y_{2}-y_{1}}$

Thus, the equation of the line that passes through the points (0, -4) and (-4, 6) is

$\frac{x-0}{(-4)-0}=\frac{y-(-4)}{6-(-4)}$

$\frac{x}{-4}=\frac{y+4}{6+4}$

$-\frac{x}{4}=\frac{y+4}{10}$

$-\frac{10x}{4}=y+4$

$-10x=4(y+4)$

$-10x=4y+16$

$4y=-10x-16$

The above equation is divided by 2 both sides.

$2y=-5x-8$

$y=-\frac{5}{2}x-4$

Therefore, the equation of the line that passes through the points (0, -4) and (-4, 6) is $y=-\frac{5}{2}x-4$
