Answer:

2/5 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

If it takes 2 gallons of paint to paint 5 walls, then the amount of gallons used per wall can be calculated by comparison

5 walls = 2 gallons \\ 1 \: wall = x \: gallons \\ by \: cross \: multiplication \\ 5 \times x = 2 \times 1 \\ 5x = 2 \\ x = \frac{2}{5}

Hence, 2/5 gallons of paint is used per wall.

Researchers are interested in the effect of a certain nutrient on the growth rate of plant seedlings. Using a hydroponics grow p
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

1) The mean calculated for this case is \bar X=61.5

2)  61.5-5.4=56.1

3) 61.5+5.4=66.9

4) B. An interval estimate gives us a sense of the accuracy of the point estimate whereas a point estimate alone does not.

Because with the confidence interval we know the confidence level of the interval, and the limits for the parameter at some significance level.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

Part 1

In order to calculate the mean and the sample deviation we can use the following formulas:  

\bar X= \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{n} (a)  

s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i-\bar X)}{n-1}} (b)  

The mean calculated for this case is \bar X=61.5

The sample deviation calculated s=5.143

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

n=6 represent the sample size  

Part 2

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

\bar X \pm ME   (1)

So if we have the margin of error 5.4mm we can find the lowr limit like this:

61.5-5.4=56.1

Part 3

61.5+5.4=66.9

Part 4

B. An interval estimate gives us a sense of the accuracy of the point estimate whereas a point estimate alone does not.

Because with the confidence interval we know the confidence level of the interval, and the limits for the parameter at some significance level.

Explain how to solve 5^(x-2)=8 using log base b of y equals log y over log b. include the solution for x in your answer. round y
miskamm [114]

The value of x will be equal to 2.477.

<h3>What is a logarithm?</h3>

The logarithm is the inverse function of exponentiation in mathematics. That is, the logarithm of a given number x is the exponent to which another fixed number, the base b, must be raised in order to obtain that number x.

The given expression will be solved as follows;-

5^{x-2}= 8

Taking Log on both sides.

Log_e 5^{x-2}=Log_e8

(x-2) Log5 = Log 8

( x-2) = Log8 / Log 5

(x - 2) = Log 8 - Log 5

(x - 2 ) = Log 3

x-2 = 0.477

x  =  2.477

Therefore the value of x will be equal to 2.477.
