An ecological group suspects lobsters are consuming dangerous levels of mercury in a region of the world. Dangerous levels of mercury are classified when they reach beyond 6.5 parts per million. A random sample of 25 lobsters in the region were tested and the data is shown in the stemplot.

Key: 2|2 = 2.2 parts per million

Part A: What proportion of the lobsters in the sample have dangerous levels of mercury in their systems? (4 points)

Part B: Construct and interpret a 95% confidence interval for the mean mercury levels of the lobsters if the sample of 25 lobsters has a mean mercury level of 5.05 parts per million and standard deviation of 1.45 parts per million. (6 points)

Answers

Answer 1

Part A: 5 out 25 lobsters have dangerous levels of mercury

Part B: the 95% confidence interval is given by (4.45, 5.65)

since everything is given all I had to do is find the critical value which can be found from the resource packet = 2.064

Using the formula we find 5.05+-2.064*1.45/5 = ( 4.45,5.65)

For this case, we have 95% of confidence that the true mean for the average number of lobsters with dangerous levels of mercury is between 4.45,5.65

Answer:

He must score an 86 or more on his third test.

Step-by-step explanation:

An average is calculated by the sum of the numbers divided by the total number (#) of numbers (if that makes sense). Knowing this, we can write an algebraic equation in order to find the answer. Let x equal the unknown number.

John's previous test scores and this test score now must be at least an average of 90 or more. Therefore, the equation would be [tex]\frac{86+98+x}{3} \geq 90[/tex]. Isolate x to find the answer:

[tex]\frac{86+98+x}{3}\geq 90\\ \frac{184+x}{3} \geq 90\\184 + x \geq 270\\x \geq 86[/tex]

Therefore, he needs to get at least a 86 or higher.

Use the two endpoints to find the slope:

Slope = change in y over change in x:

Slope = (5.5-2)/(5-0) = 3.5/5 = 0.7

The y intercept is the y value when x is 0, which is 2

The correct answer is,

[tex] \frac{1}{64} [/tex]

Answer:

1/64

Step-by-step explanation:

when exponents are separated by parentheses, multiply them

so (2³)^-2 = 2^-6

whenever an exponent is negative, change into fraction form with one as the numerator and the other term goes into the denominator and the exponent now becomes positive

2^-6 = [tex]\frac{1}{2^6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{64}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

  y = -1/2x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line has slope 2, so the perpendicular line will have slope -1/2, the negative reciprocal of the given slope.

The y-intercept is given as -2, so the line's equation in slope-intercept form is ...

  y = mx +b . . . . line with slope m and y-intercept b

  y = -1/2x -2

Jada has 12 library books checked out and Han has one third less than that. How many books does Han have checked out?

Answers

Hi there :)

So since they initially drank 50 gallons, half of that is 25 gallons. 50+25= 75, therefore they drank 75 gallons.

Jada has 12 library books and 1/3 of that is 4, because 12 divided by 3 is 4, so 12-4=8. That means Han checked out only 8 books.

The cost y (in dollars) of a gym membership for x months is y=20x+25. Graph the equation.

Answers

Answer:

The graph of the equation y = 20x+25 is attached below.

Please check the attached graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation

[tex]y = mx+b[/tex]

where

m is the slopeb is the y-intercept

In our case, we are given that the cost y (in dollars) of a gym membership for x months is:

[tex]y=20x+25[/tex]

comparing with the slope-intercept form of the line equation

Here:

The slope of the equation is: m = 20

The y-intercept is: b = 25

The graph of the equation y = 20x+25 is also attached below.

From the graph, it is clear that the graph of the line crosses the y-axis at y = 25.

Thus, the point (0, 25) represents the y-intercept of the function.

Please check the attached graph.
