Use the confidence interval to find the estimated margin of error. Then find the sample mean. A biologist reports a confidence i

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

$\bar X = \frac{Lower +Upper}{2}$

$\bar X= \frac{1.9+3.3}{2}= 2.6$

And the margin of error with this one:

$\bar X = \frac{Upper-Lower}{2}$

$ME = \frac{3.3-1.9}{2}= 0.7$

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the parameter of interest is the sample mean $\mu$ . And we can estimate this parameter with a confidence interval given by this formula:

$\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

For this case the confidence interval is given by (1.9, 3.3)

Since the confidence interval is symmetrical we can estimate the sample mean with this formula:

$\bar X = \frac{Lower +Upper}{2}$

$\bar X= \frac{1.9+3.3}{2}= 2.6$

And the margin of error with this one:

$\bar X = \frac{Upper-Lower}{2}$

$ME = \frac{3.3-1.9}{2}= 0.7$

What is the importance of polynomial functions and how this real life applications improve or contribute to the value of life

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

What is the importance of polynomial functions?

Polynomials are an important part of the "language" of mathematics and algebra. They are used in nearly every field of mathematics to express numbers as a result of mathematical operations. Polynomials are also "building blocks" in other types of mathematical expressions, such as rational expressions.

How these real-life applications improve or contribute to the value of life?

Since polynomials are used to describe curves of various types, people use them in the real world to graph curves. Combinations of polynomial functions are sometimes used in economics to do cost analyses, for example. Engineers use polynomials to graph the curves of roller coasters and bridges.

8. Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 2x + 5y = 15 and passes through the

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

$\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -3$

Explanation:

part A identification for slope:

$\sf 2x + 5y = 15$

$\sf 5y = -2x + 15$

$\sf y = \frac{-2x + 15}{5}$

$\sf y = -\frac{2 }{5} x+3$

comparing with slope intercept form: y = mx + b

we can find that here the slope is $\bold -\frac{2}{5}$

part B, solving the equation:

if the line is parallel, then the slope will be same.

given coordinates: ( - 10, 1 )

using the equation:

y - y₁ = m( x - x₁ )

$\sf y - 1 = \bold -\frac{2}{5} (x --10)$

$\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -4 + 1$

$\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -3$

Extra information:

check the image below. this proves that the line is parallel and passes through point (-10, 1). the blue line is question line and red the answer line.

Can someone explain how to answer this

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

q= -ck+dp/

-k+d

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Multiply both sides by p.

dp=ck−kq+pq

Step 2:

Flip the equation.

ck−kq+pq=dp

Step 3:

Add -ck to both sides.

−kq+pq=−ck+dp

Step 4:

Factor out variable q.

q(−k+p)=−ck+dp

Step 5:

Divide both sides by -k+p.

q= -ck+dp/

-k+d
