A negative exponent means the number of the exponent divide by the number. The the radius of beryllium atom is larger than the radius of a nitrogen atom by two times.

Given information-

The radius of a nitrogen atom is 5.6\times10^{-11} meters.

The radius of a beryllium atom is 1.12 \times10^{-10} meters

<h3>Negative exponents</h3>

A negative exponent means the number of the exponent divide by the number.

As the radius of the nitrogen atom is 5.6\times10^{-11} meters. Convert it in the power of negative exponent of 10.

Let the radius of the nitrogen is r mm. Thus,

r=5.6\times 10^{-11}\\&#10;r=5.6\times 10^{-10-1}\\&#10;r=5.6\times 10^{-10}\times10^{-1}\\&#10;r=\dfrac{5.6\times 10^{-10}}{10} \\&#10;r=0.56\times 10^{-10}

Now the base of the exponents of both the atoms are same. As the radius of the nitrogen atom is 0.56\times 10^{-10} meters and the radius of the beryllium atom is 1.12 \times10^{-10}. Thus the radius of beryllium atom is larger.

To calculate how many times, the radius of beryllium atom should be divided by the radius of a nitrogen atom. Thus,

=\dfrac{1.12\times10^{-10}}{0.56\times10^{-10}} \\&#10;=2

Thus the the radius of beryllium atom is larger than the radius of a nitrogen atom by two times.

A random sample of 16 one-kilogram sugar packets is obtained and the actual weights of the packets are measured. The sample mean
elena55 [62]

Answer:

The 99% two-sided confidence interval for the average sugar packet weight is between 0.882 kg and 1.224 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are in posession of the sample's standard deviation, so we use the student's t-distribution to find the confidence interval.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 16 - 1 = 15

99% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 35 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of 1 - \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.905([tex]t_{995}). So we have T = 2.9467

The margin of error is:

M = T*s = 2.9467*0.058 = 0.171

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 1.053 - 0.171 = 0.882kg

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 1.053 + 0.171 = 1.224 kg.

The 99% two-sided confidence interval for the average sugar packet weight is between 0.882 kg and 1.224 kg.
