Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

its C. all of the sea urchin in the entire ovean is the most likely to be the population of interest

Answer 2

The population of interest will most likely be option B. all of the sea urchins near the plant.

The term 'population of interest' refers to the group or number from which inference is made or done for research purposes. And from this group, the researcher will try to draw conclusions from his/her study.

A population of interest is generally taken for studies or statistical references.In the given scenario, the biologists found that the nearby factory is directly affecting the health of the local urchins.And in conducting the research, the population of sea urchins near the plant will be taken or regarded as the population of interest.

For the marine biologists to determine the extent of the factory's effect on the sea urchins, they would consider or take the sea urchins near the factory population as the population of interest. Thus, the correct answer is option B.

28 decreased by 2.6%

Answers

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

28 decreased by 2.6%

First we need to determine the percentage decrease such as:

Percentage decrease = 2.6% of 28

                                     = 2.6/100 × 28

                                     = 0.026 × 28

                                     = 0.73

New value can be determined using the formula

New vaue = 28 - percentage decrease

                 = 28 - 0.73

                 = 27.27

Enter your answer to 5 decimal places if necessary. Use a calculator.
A
-50, 35, -24.5,..;5th term
The 5th term of the sequence is 70

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term here is -50 and the common ratio is 0.70.  Note that the second term is 0.70(50) = 35.

The formula a(n) = a(0)*r^(n -1) becomes  a(n) = -50*0.70^(n -1), and so

the 5th term is a(5) = -50*0.70^4 = -12.005

An aircraft seam requires 20 rivets. The seam will have to be reworked if any of these rivets is defective. Suppose rivets are defective independently of one another, each with the same probability. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) (a) If 16% of all seams need reworking, what is the probability that a rivet is defective

Answers

Answer:

probability that a rivet is defective is 0.00868

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

rivets = 20

all seam need reworking P = 16% = 0.16

solution

we consider here probability of a defective rivet = p

and 0.16 = P [Seam needs reworking) = P (at least one rivet in the seam is defective)

so that for non-defective = 1 - P [all the rivets are non-defective]

and that will be here as = 1 - P [rivet 1 is non-defective, rivet 2 is non-defective, rivet 3 is non-defective,...............,rivet 20 is non-defective]

= [tex]1 - (p})^{20}[/tex]     ....................1

so

1-0.16 = [tex]1 - (p})^{20}[/tex]

0.84 = [tex]1 - (p})^{20}[/tex]

[tex]0.84^{\frac{1}{20}}[/tex] = 1 - p

solve it we get

p = 0.00868

so, probability that a rivet is defective is 0.00868

Answers

The probability that a student is a female given that they have an A is 0.2

How to determine the probability?

The given parameters are:

Female = 11

A= 10

Female and A = 2

The probability is calculated using:

P(Female given A) = P(female and A)/P(A)

This gives

P(Female given A) = 2/10

Simplify

P(Female given A) = 0.2

Hence, the probability that a student is a female given that they have an A is 0.2

She determines that for every $1 increase in price she would sell two fewer T-shirts and for even $1 decrease in price, she would sell two more T-shirts, Which quadratic function can Kimmie use to model price increments vs. total income so that she can find the price at which her income is maximized?​

Answers

Answer:

y =  -2*x² + 60*x

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of a quadratic function is:

y = a*x² + b*x + c

We need to determine a  ;  b  ;  and c. For that we have three conditions therefore

Condition 1       at  x = 12 $ each T-shirts kimmie sells 36 units, then she gets

12* 36 = 432 $    or      y  =  432   and

432 = a(12)² + 12*b + c      or   432 = 144*a + 12*b + c

Second condition   selling at 13 $ each T-shirt  she sells 34 , then

13*34 = 442

442  = a(13)²  +  13*b  + c    or   442 = 169*a + 13*b + c

And the third condition

11*38  = 418

418 = a* ( 121)  + 11*b  + c         418  =  121*a  +  11*b  + c

We have a three equation system

432 =   144*a + 12*b + c         (1)

442  =   169*a + 13*b + c       (2)

418 =    121*a  +  11*b  + c       (3)

We need to solve it for a,  b  and  c

Subtracting (2) - (1)        10 = 25*a  +  b    and subtracting (2) - (3)

24 = 48*a  + 2*b

Then       b  =  10 -  25*a         and     24  =  48*a + 2*( 10 - 25*a )

24  =  48*a +  20  - 50*a

24 -  20  =   -2*a

4  =  - 2*a    

a  = - 2      and   b =  10 - 25*( -2)     b = 60

Finally  c   is:    432 =   144*a + 12*b + c  

432  =  144* ( -2) + 12*60  + c

432  = -  288  +  720  +  c

432  = 432  + c

c =  0

The quadratic function is:

y =  -2*x² + 60*x

s shown by the formula F= C+32. At what temperature will a Fahrenheit thermometer read the same as a Celsius thermometer
X

Answers

Answer:

It will read the same at F = -40.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]C = \frac{5(F-32)}{9}[/tex]

At what temperature will a Fahrenheit thermometer read the same as a Celsius thermometer?

This is F for C = F. So

[tex]C = \frac{5(F-32)}{9}[/tex]

[tex]F = \frac{5(F-32)}{9}[/tex]

What average speed do you need to go for the rest of the trip to get to the church on time

Answers

Answer:

You need to have an average speed of at least 35 miles per hour for the rest of the trip to get to the church on time

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the following relation to solve the question:

[tex]v = \frac{d}{t}[/tex]

In which v is the velocity, d is the distance, and t is the time.

First 15 minutes:

Time of 15 minutes = 0.25 hour, so [tex]t = 0.25[/tex]

Velocity of 5 miles per hour. So the distance is of:

[tex]d = vt = 5*0.25 = 1.25[/tex]

Final 15 minutes:

The will need to drive 10 - 1.25 = 8.75 miles in 15 minutes = 0.25 hours. So, the average speed will need to be of at least:

[tex]v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{8.75}{0.25} = 35[/tex]

You need to have an average speed of at least 35 miles per hour for the rest of the trip to get to the church on time

Step-by-step explanation:

If you think about the units associated with a coordinate (feet, for example), then you may recognize the following

a) each difference is of "feet", so each difference will have units of "feet". The ratio of "feet" to "feet" cancels the units, leaving a pure number. In this case, it is called "steepness" in selection e. Steepness is given by the slope formula (2).

__

b) The difference in parentheses has units of "feet" (as in (a)), so the square will be "square feet". The sum of two of those will still be "square feet" and the square root of that will be "feet". The units of the formula are those of distance, or length, matching selection d. Distance is given by the distance formula (3).

__

c) The form shown is an ordered pair. That is the same as the representation of a coordinate point, selection f. Coordinates of a point are given by the midpoint formula (1).

Answers

Amon the following situation 2 cases follow the general rule for basis of inherited property

Given , Statements of inheritance.

1. Louis died on August 12. 2019 leaving his house to his sister, Etty.

This is a case of inheritance of property as it justifies conditions of the definition of Inheritance of Property i.e Louis died and as a consequence his property is transferred to his sister which is her relative as per law. So, this is a valid case of inheritance. Even a person can transfer his property to some unrelated person, if he so mentions in his will.

2. On August 15, 2018, Leroy give his brother Ralph appreciated stock. Leroy's brother died on February 16, 2019, Ralph's only heir was Leroy.

In this case, transfer of stock from Leroy to Ralph is outside the definition of inheritance, since Leroy was not died at that time. On second instance, when stock was transferred to Leroy after Ralph death in February 2019. It is a case of inheritance but it is the case of inheritance of stock, not inheritance of property. Stock of a company is not considered a property.

3.Mick died on June 30, 2019. He named his brother Emmett as the beneficiary of his 401(k) plan.

A 401(k) plan is a retirement savings account that allows an employee to divert a portion of his or her salary into long-term investments. The employer may match the employee's contribution up to a limit.

This is also a case of inheritance but not the case of inheritence of property. Retirement Savings account is not considered as property.

4.Janet died January 1, 2019. At that time, she had a IRA with balance of $32640. She named her daughter, Emily, as the beneficiary of her IRA.
