The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has standards and regulations that says that the lead level in soil cannot exceed the

limit of 400 parts per million (ppm) in public play areas designed for children. Mike is an inspector, and he takes 50 randomly selected soil samples from a site where they are considering building a playground.
These data show a sample mean of x = 390.25 ppm and standard deviation of Sx = 30.5 ppm. Answer the following:

1. Determine the critical t value and along with the confidence interval for 95% level of

confidence. 2. What does this interval suggest?

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

<u>Check One-Sample T-Interval Conditions</u>

Random Sample? √

Sample Size ≥30? √

Independent? √

Population Standard Deviation Unknown? √

<u>One-Sample T-Interval Information</u>

  • Formula --> CI=\bar{x}\pm t^*(\frac{S_x}{\sqrt{n}})
  • Sample Mean --> \bar{x}=390.25
  • Critical Value --> t^*=2.0096 (given df=n-1=50-1=49 degrees of freedom at a 95% confidence level)
  • Sample Size --> n=50
  • Sample Standard Deviation --> S_x=30.5

<u>Problem 1</u>

The critical t-value, as mentioned previously, would be t^*=2.0096, making the 95% confidence interval equal to CI=\bar{x}\pm t^*(\frac{S_x}{\sqrt{n}})=390.25\pm2.0096(\frac{30.5}{\sqrt{50}})\approx\{381.5819,398.9181\}

This interval suggests that we are 95% confident that the true mean levels of lead in soil are between 381.5819 and 398.9181 parts per million (ppm), which satisfies the EPA's regulated maximum of 400 ppm.

With reference to the NSPE Code of Ethics, which one of the following statements is true regarding the ethical obligations of th
34kurt

Answer: c. The VW engineers involved were ethically obligated to hold paramount the health, welfare and safety of the public even if their supervisors directed them to implement software and hardware that enabled cheating on the emissions testing software.

Explanation: The National Society of professional Engineers, NSPE define the code of ethics which must guide engineers in their duty. These codes act as principles of personal conduct, towards the public and their employers.  

One of the areas covered by these codes is overriding importance of the safety and health of the public to any other factor. In addition, engineers are to avoid deception and maintain the reputation of their profession. These cannot be sacrificed for the financial gain of their employers or explained away by saying they are following the direction of their employers. While they have certain responsibilities to their employers, the health welfare and safety of the public is more important.

Hi,I want to know something.
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

So it looks to me that, Yes, you can find 10-50 leds on Amazon. You just have to be specific and search 10-50 led Christmas lights for windows, or something along those lines. Also try filtering the results, and reading the descriptions and reviews. This should help you out, and if it doesn't then I'm sorry.

Good luck friend :)

A meter stick can be read to the nearest millimeter and a travelling microscope can be read to the nearest 0.1 mm. Suppose you w
german

Answer: No

Explanation:

Length= 2cm= 20mm

Now meter stick can read to nearest millimeter.

It is given that length is to be measured with a precision of 1% of 20mm= 1/100 * 20= 0.2mm

Since the least count is 1mm of meter stick and precision required is less than that. So, meter stick cannot be used for this, travelling microscope can be used for this as it can read to 0.1mm.
