) A watershed experiences a rainfall of 8 inches. What is the runoff volume when the curve number is 80

Answers

Answer:

5.625 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total Rainfall in inches (P) = 8 inches

The runoff volume (in inches) Q = ???

The curve number CN = 80

Recall that: The runoff volume can be calculated by using the formula:

[tex]Q = \dfrac{(P-0.2S)^2}{(P+0.8S)}[/tex]    for P > 0.2S

Q = 0                     for P < 0.2S

[tex]S = \dfrac{1000}{CN}-10[/tex]

where:

curve number CN = 80

[tex]S = \dfrac{1000}{80}-10[/tex]

S = 2.5 inches

Since the rainfall (P) is greater than 0.25

Then:

[tex]Q = \dfrac{(P-0.2S)^2}{(P+0.8S)}[/tex]  

[tex]Q = \dfrac{(8-0.2(2.5))^2}{(8+0.8(2.5))}[/tex]

[tex]Q = \dfrac{(8-0.5)^2}{(8+2)}[/tex]

[tex]Q = \dfrac{(7.5)^2}{(10)}[/tex]

[tex]Q = \dfrac{(56.25)}{(10)}[/tex]

Q = 5.625 inches

Thus, the runoff volume = 5.625 inches

b. Identify important factors, factor levels, and/or factor-level combinations.
c. Classify these factors as within- or between-subjects
d. what’s the dependent measures?
e. What is the basic experiment unit of study?

Answers

Answer:

Given that;

There are three high schools, each having four sections of every 24 students

the 2 types of instructions are Standard curriculum  & computer based curriculum

a)

this study is experimental

this is because the study did not just observe the student's performance but randomly assign the performance to different techniques that have some certain control over the technique of teaching and then observe their performance afterwards

b)

-important  factors are; high schools, instruction type and scores

- Highschool has 2 levels: level one there are three high schools,  level 2 each having four sections of every 24 students

-instruction type: has one level which is  divided into two namely; standard base and computer based

Scores: doesn't have levels

c)

there are 3 schools and 4 sections  so the factor high school has between subjects components

factor instruction type also has between subjects because there are two different types available

there are 24 students in each section which are within subjects

d)

the score on the test  is the dependent measures

e)

“STUDENT” in each section is he basic experiment unit of study

Aging workers of the Neotropical termite, Neocapritermes taracua, develop blue crystal containing glands ("backpacks") on their backs, When they fight intruding termites and are hampered, these "blue" termites explode, and the glands spew a sticky liquid (Sobotnik et al. 2012). The following data are from an experiment that measured the toxicity of the blue substance. A single drop of the liquid extracted from blue termites was placed on individuals of a second termite species, Labiotermes labralis, and the number that were immobilized (dead or paralyzed) within 60 minutes was recorded. The frequency of this outcome was compared with a control treatment in which liquid from glands of "white" termites lacking the blue crystals was dropped instead.
Is the blue liquid toxic compared to liquid from white termites?
Liquid source Unharmed Immobilized
Blue workers 3 37
White workers 31 9

Answers

Answer:

Yes blue liquid is toxic

Step-by-step explanation:

H0: p1 = p2

H1: p1>p2

For blue

We calculate proportion as

37/40 = 0.925

For white

9/40 = 0.2250

To get p

(X1 + x2)/(n1 + n2)

= 0.5750

After calculating the z as statistic (please check attachment) I got 6.33

P value = 0.0000

We reject null hypothesis and say in conclusion that enough evidence exists for us to say blu liquid is toxic!

The toco toucan, the largest member of the toucan family, possesses the largest beak relative to body size of all birds. This exaggerated feature has received various interpretations, such as being a refined adaptation for feeding. However, the large surface area may also be an important mechanism for radiating heat (and hence cooling the bird) as outdoor temperature increases. Here are data for beak heat loss, as a percent of total body heat loss, at various temperatures in degrees Celsius:

Temperature (degrees Celsius) 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30
Percent heat loss from beak 35 36 38 28 41 43 55 46 39 54 45 58 60 56 62 67
a. The equation of the least-squares regression line for predicting beak heat loss, as a percent of total body heat loss from all sources, from temperature is: _____ (Use decimal notation. Give your answer to four decimal places.)

b. Use the equation to predict (
±
0.01) beak heat loss, as a percent of total body heat loss from all sources, at a temperature of 25 degrees Celsius.

c. What percent (
±
0.01) of the variation in beak heat loss is explained by the straight-line relationship with temperature?

d. Find the correlation r (
±
0.001) between beak heat loss and temperature.

Answers

Answer:

An Airliner has a capacity for 300 passengers. If the company overbook a flight with 320 passengers, What is the probability that it will not be enough seats to accommodate all passengers. Assume that the probability that a randomly selected passenger shows up to the airport is 0.96. Find the probability using the normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution.

Answers

Answer:

The probability is   [tex]P(X  >300 ) = 0.97219 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The capacity of  an Airliner  is  k =  300 passengers

 The sample size n =  320 passengers

  The probability the a randomly selected passenger shows up on to the airport

    [tex]p = 0.96[/tex]

Generally the mean is mathematically represented as

    [tex]\mu  =  n*  p[/tex]

  => [tex]\mu  =  320 *  0.96[/tex]

    => [tex]\mu  = 307.2[/tex]

Generally the standard deviation is  

    [tex]\sigma =  \sqrt{n *  p *  (1 -p ) }[/tex]

=>  [tex]\sigma =  \sqrt{320  *  0.96 *  (1 -0.96 ) }[/tex]

=> [tex]\sigma =3.50 [/tex]

Applying Normal approximation of binomial distribution

Generally the probability that there will not be enough seats to accommodate all passengers is mathematically represented as

  [tex]P(X  > k ) =  P( \frac{ X -\mu }{\sigma }  >  \frac{k - \mu}{\sigma } )[/tex]

Here [tex]\frac{ X -\mu }{\sigma }  =Z (The \ standardized \  value \  of  \ X )[/tex]

=>[tex]P(X  >300 ) =  P(Z >  \frac{300 - 307.2}{3.50} )[/tex]

Now applying  continuity correction we have

    [tex]P(X  >300 ) =  P(Z >  \frac{[300+0.5] - 307.2}{3.50} )[/tex]    

=>    [tex]P(X  >300 ) =  P(Z >  \frac{[300.5] - 307.2}{3.50} )[/tex]

=>    [tex]P(X  >300 ) =  P(Z >  -1.914 )[/tex]

From the z-table  

    [tex]P(Z >  -1.914 ) =  0.97219[/tex]

So

    [tex]P(X  >300 ) = 0.97219 [/tex]

The standard height from the floor to the bull’s-eye at which a standard dartboard is hung at 5 feet 8 inches. A standard dartboard is 18 inches in diameter. Suppose a standard dartboard is hung at standard height so that the bull’s-eye is 10 feet from the wall to its left. Sasha throws a dart at the dartboard that land at point 10.25 Feet from the left wall and 5 feet above the floor. Does Sasha’s dart land on the dartboard? Drag the choices into the boxes to correctly complete the statements.

Answers

Answer:

Hello! I'm sorry I couldn't get to your question sooner. I just completed this quiz!

The equation of the circle that represents the dartboard is (x-10)^2 + (y-17/3)^2 = 9/16, where the origin is the lower-left corner of the room and the unit of the radius is feet.  

The position of Sasha's dart is represented by the coordinates (10.25,5). Sash's dart does land on the dartboard.

This quiz was completed on k12, lesson 3.03.

The question is an illustration of equation of circles.

The equation of the dartboard circle is: [tex]\mathbf{(x - 10)^2 + (y - \frac{17}3)^2 = \frac 9{16}}[/tex]Sasha's dart lands on the dartboard because

From the question, we understand that:

[tex]\mathbf{h = 5\ ft\ 8\ in }[/tex] ---- the height at which the dartboard was hung

[tex]\mathbf{d = 18\i n }[/tex] ---- the diameter of the dartboard

[tex]\mathbf{B = 10ft}[/tex]  --- the bull's eye

[tex]\mathbf{D = (10.25ft, 5ft)}[/tex] --- Sasha's dart

Equation of the circle

First, we convert all units to feet

This is done by dividing inches units by 12

[tex]\mathbf{h = 5\ ft\ 8\ in }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{h = 5\ ft\ + \frac{8}{12}\ ft }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{h = 5\ ft\ + \frac{2}{3}\ ft }[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]\mathbf{h = \frac{15 + 2}{3}\ ft }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{h = \frac{17}{3}\ ft }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{d = 18\i n }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{d = \frac{18}{12}ft}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{d = \frac{3}{2}ft}[/tex]

Divide by 2 to calculate radius

[tex]\mathbf{r = \frac{3}{2*2}ft}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{r = \frac{3}{4}ft}[/tex]

The equation of the circle is represented as:

[tex]\mathbf{(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2}[/tex]

In this case:

[tex]\mathbf{a = B = 10ft}[/tex] -- the distance between the bull's eye and the wall

[tex]\mathbf{b = h = \frac{17}{3}\ ft }[/tex] ---- the height at which the dartboard was hung

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{(x - a)^2 + (y - b)^2 = r^2}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{(x - 10)^2 + (y - \frac{17}3)^2 = (\frac 34)^2}[/tex]

Evaluate the exponents

[tex]\mathbf{(x - 10)^2 + (y - \frac{17}3)^2 = \frac 9{16}}[/tex]

Hence, the equation of the circle is: [tex]\mathbf{(x - 10)^2 + (y - \frac{17}3)^2 = \frac 9{16}}[/tex]

Does Sasha’s dart land on the dartboard?

Yes her dart lands on the dartboard because

[tex]\mathbf{D = (10.25ft, 5ft)}[/tex] is within the circumference of the dartboard

Restless Leg Syndrome and Fibromyalgia
People with restless leg syndrome have a strong urge to move their legs to stop uncomfortable sensations. People with fibromyalgia suffer pain and tenderness in joints throughout the body. A recent study indicates that people with fibromyalgia are much more likely to have restless leg syndrome than people without the disease. The study indicates that, for people with fibromyalgia, the probability is 0.33 of having restless leg syndrome, while for people without fibromyalgia, the probability is 0.03. About 2% of the population has fibromyalgia. Create a tree diagram from this information and use it to find the probability that a person with restless leg syndrome has fibromyalgia.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that a person with restless leg syndrome has fibromyalgia is 0.183.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

F = a person with fibromyalgia

R = a person having restless leg syndrome

The information provided is as follows:

P (R | F) = 0.33

P (R | F') = 0.03

P (F) = 0.02

Consider the tree diagram attached below.

Compute the probability that a person with restless leg syndrome has fibromyalgia as follows:

[tex]P(F|R)=\frac{P(R|F)P(F)}{P(R|F)P(F)+P(R|F')P(F')}[/tex]

            [tex]=\frac{(0.33\times 0.02)}{(0.33\times 0.02)+(0.03\times 0.98)}\\\\=\frac{0.0066}{0.0066+0.0294}\\\\=0.183333\\\\\approx 0.183[/tex]

Thus, the probability that a person with restless leg syndrome has fibromyalgia is 0.183.
