Dairy cows at large commercial farms often receive injections of bST (Bovine Somatotropin), a hormone used to spur milk production. Bauman et al. (Journal of Dairy Science, 1989) reported that 12 cows given bST produced an average of 28.0 kg/d of milk. Assume that the standart deviation of milk production is 2.25 kg/d. (a) Find a 99% confidence interval for the true mean milk production. Round your answers to two decimal places (e.g. 98.76).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the true mean milk production is between 26.33 kg/d and 29.67 kg/d.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.005[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.005 = 0.995[/tex], so Z = 2.575.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

[tex]M = 2.575\frac{2.25}{\sqrt{12}} = 1.67[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 28 - 1.67 = 26.33 kg/d.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 28 + 1.67 = 29.67 kg/d.

The 99% confidence interval for the true mean milk production is between 26.33 kg/d and 29.67 kg/d.

the sum of two resistors in 750 ohms. One is 6.5 times the other. Find the size of each resistor in ohms.

Answers

Answer:

r = 100

6.5r = 650

Step-by-step explanation:

let r be resistors.

6.5r + r = 750

Simplify:

6.5r + r = 750

7.5r = 750

------   ------

7.5     7.5

   r = 100

100 × 6.5 = 650

One resistor is 100 ohms, and he other is 650 ohms.

Hope this helped.

G I V E N :

The sum of two resistors in 750 ohms. One is 6.5 times the other. Find the size of each resistor in ohms.

S O L U T I O N :

According to the question, here we need to take a variable to find the size of each resistor then multiply 6.5 with the variable with the first one. For the second there is no change in the variable. Then adding them we get 750 ohms. Simplifying we get their respective size

Let us assume the other resistor's size be x

Here,

The First resistor's size is 6.5 times the other. Hence, the no. is 6.5x

Given that : the sum of two resistors in 750 ohms

1st Resistor + 2nd Resistor = 750 ohms

6.5x + x = 750 ohms

7.5x = 750 ohms

x = 750/7.5 ohms

x = 100 ohms

FINDING SIZE :

First Resistor's Size = 6.5x = 6.5*100 = 650 ohms

Other Resistor's Size = x = 100 ohms

ABC Bookstore sells one customer 12 used books and 4 new books for $136.
Another customer buys 14 used books and 2 new books for $124. How much
is one used book (u), and one new book (n)?

Answers

Answer:

n=6 u=28/3

Step-by-step explanation:

system of equations

The number of used books sold will be 7 and that of the new book will be 9.

How to form an equation?

Determine the known quantities and designate the unknown quantity as a variable while trying to set up or construct a linear equation to fit a real-world application.

In other words, an equation is a set of variables that are constrained through a situation or case.

Given

Number of used books = u

Number of new books  = v

In the first case;

12u + 4n =  136

In the second case;

28u + 4n = 248

By both equations,

u = 7 and n = 9

So the number of used books is 7 and the new is 9.

Problem 5

Start with the 30-60-90 triangle template

If you divide all values in that template by 2, then you'll get the diagram shown below.

Notice that the ratio of adjacent over hypotenuse leads to sqrt(3)/2

So that diagram shows that cos(30) = sqrt(3)/2

Answer: Choice A) 30 degrees

===========================================================

Problem 6

Theta = 210 is between 180 and 270, which places the angle in quadrant Q3. This is in the southwest corner. In Q3, we have sine and cosine negative. They divide to make tangent positive

tan = sin/cos = negative/negative = positive

So tangent is positive in Q3

Answer: Choice C) tangent

===========================================================

Problem 7

Cosine is an even function which means cos(-x) = cos(x) for all real numbers x.

So,

cos(170) = cos(-170)

Then we'll find a coterminal angle of -170 which involves adding on 360

-170+360 = 190

The angles -170 and 190 point in the exact same direction

This then means cos(170) = cos(-170) = cos(190)

Or in short, cos(170) = cos(190)

Answer: Choice A)  cos(190)

What are the amplitude, period, phase shift, and midline of f(x) = 7 cos(2x + π) − 3?

Answers

Answer:

So the amplitude is 7

The period is pi

The phase shift is negative pi/2

The midline is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

A trigonometric function is the same as

[tex]f(x) = a \cos(b(x + c)) - d[/tex]

Where a is the amplitude, 2 pi/ absolute value of b is the period, c is the phase shift, and d is the vertical shift or midline.

Given the function

[tex]7 \cos(2x + \pi) - 3[/tex]

The amplitude is 7, and the midline is -3. The period is

[tex] \frac{2\pi}{2} = \pi[/tex]

The phase shift is

[tex]2x + \pi = 0[/tex]

[tex]2x = - \pi[/tex]

[tex]x = - \frac{\pi}{2} [/tex]

So the amplitude is 7

The period is pi

The phase shift is negative pi/2

The midline is -3.

In parallelogram ABCD, m∠B = 105°.

What is the value of x. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth, if necessary.)

Answers

Answer:

52.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ED ≈ AD, ∆AED is a isosceles triangle where <EAD and <AED has same angle measurement

Now, m<B = 105°, since ABCD is a parallelogram, <B = <D

so, m<ADC = 105° so, m<ADE = 180°-105° = 75°

Now, m<EAD+m<AED+m<ADE = 180°

or, m<AED+m<AED+m<ADE = 180°

or, x+x+75°=180°

or, 2x=180+75°

or, 2x=105°

or, x=52.5°

Find x

We have:

[tex]\log x\³+ \log5x =5\log2-\log\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Apply exponent rule

[tex]\log x\³+ \log5x =\log2^5-\log\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

[tex]\log x\³+ \log5x =\log32 -\log\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Apply product and quotient rules of logarithm

[tex]\log (x\³* 5x) =\log(32 \div \frac{2}{5})[/tex]

[tex]\log (5x^4) =\log(80)[/tex]

Cancel log on both sides

[tex]5x^4 = 80[/tex]
