Suppose that 10% of the fields in a given agricultural area with about 2,500 fields are infested with the sweet potato white fly. One hundred fields in this area are randomly selected and checked for whitefly.

Required:
a. What is the average number of fields sampled that are infested with whitefly?
b. Within what limits would you expect to find the number of infested fields, with probability approximately 95%?
c. What might you conclude if you found that x=25 fields were infested? Is it possible that one of the characteristics of a binomial experiment is not satisfied in this experiment? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. 250 fields

b. 220 to 280 fields

c. Fields are not independent

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The average number of fields sampled that are infested with whitefly =

number of fields X Percentage sampled, 10%

= 2500 X 10% = 250 fields

b.  Going by the binomial distribution is the square of the standard deviation, divided by (the product of the sample size n, and the probability a and b). While the standard deviation is the square root of the variance

σ = √nab

= √na(1-a) = √2500 X 10% X (1- 10%)

= √225 = 15

Now let's use the empirical rule that says about 95% of the observations are within two standard deviations from the mean since the number of trials is very large

μ - 2σ = 250 - 2(15) = 220

μ + 2σ = 250 + 2(15) = 280

Approximately 220 to 280 fields are expected to be infested going by 95% probability observation

c. Since x=25 is considered small and is not captured within 220 and 280 fields making one of the characteristics of binomial experiment not satisfied which expects each field to be independent. Making fields that are close together more likely to be infected.

The sum of two numbers is 32. One number is 10 more than the other. Find the numbers

Answers

Answer:

12 and 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

11 and 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number equal x. If the first number, the second number is ten more, and can represented as x + 10. Now, the sum is 32, so we can add the two numbers to get 32:

x + x + 10 = 32

2x + 10 = 32

2x = 22

x = 11

If the first number 11, the second number is 10 more, and therefore is 21.

Solve the equation
z³=27

Answers

Answer: z = 3, -1.5 + 1.5[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]i, -1.5 - 1.5[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]i

Step-by-step explanation:

      A cubic equation will have three solutions. This equatoin will give us one real solution. We will also have two complex solutions. These are solutions that involve "imaginary numbers" and will utilize the value i. We will write the equation in standard form and factor it.

              z³ - 27 = 0

              (z - 3)(z² + 3z + 9) = 0

      The first factor gives us z = 3, because 3 - 3 = 0. Now, we will look at when the second factor equals 0. Let us complete the square.

              z² + 3z + 9 = 0

              (z² + 3z + 2.25) + 9 - 1.5 = 0

              (z² + 3z + 2.25) + 6.75 = 0

              (z + 1.5)² + 6.75 = 0

      Lastly, we can continue solving. We will subtract 7.5 from both sides of the equation and then take the square root of both sides. Then, we will subtract 1.5 from both sides of the equation and simplify the radical.  [tex]i=\sqrt{-1}[/tex].

              (z + 1.5)² = -6.75

              z + 1.5 = ±[tex]\sqrt{6.75}[/tex]i

              z = -1.5 ±1.5[tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex]i

Answer:

  z = 3, -1.5+1.5√3i, -1.5-1.5√3i

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the solutions to the equation z³ = 27.

Cubic

A cubic equation has three solutions. This one has one positive real solution and two complex conjugate solutions.

We can rewrite the equation to standard form, then factor the difference of cubes.

  z³ -27 = 0

  (z -3)(z² +3z +9) = 0

The first factor will be zero when z = 3, so that is one solution.

The second factor will be zero when ...

  (z +1.5)² +6.75 = 0 . . . . . . . complete the square

  (z +1.5) = ±√(-6.75) = ±√(-27/4) = ±(3/2)√(-3) . . . subtract 6.75; square root

  z = -1.5 ±1.5√3i

The three solutions to the equation are ...

z = 3z = -1.5+1.5(√3)iz = -1.5-1.5(√3)i

A shape has 2 pairs of parallel sides and no right angles. Its sides are all the same length. What shape is it?

A. Rhombus
B. Trapezoid
C. Rectangle
D. Square

Answers

Answer: The attached figure is a parallelogram with one corner chopped off, making it a pentagon. It still has two pairs of parallel sides & no right angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallelogram is the word that most generally describes such a figure. A square or rectangle, which do, of course have right angles, are special cases of the parallelogram.

I am assuming (perhaps unjustifiably) that when you say “two pairs of parallel sides” you are talking of a figure with no other sides than those four.

There are, of course, many other polygons (hexagons, octagons, decagons, etc) which have two pairs of parallel sides and other sides, any two of which may or may not be parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

By intersecting tangent and secant theorem:

[tex] {(x + 2)}^{2} = x(x + 5) \\ \\ {x}^{2} + 4x + 4 = {x}^{2} + 5x \\ \\ 4x + 4 = 5x \\ \\ 4 = 5x - 4x \\ \\ 4 = x \\ \\ x = 4[/tex]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

When a secant and a tangent are drawn to a circle from a point outside the circle, the lengths are related this way:

The square of the length of the tangent equals the product of the length of the secant and the length of the segment of the secant outside the circle.

(x + 2)² = x(x + 5)

x² + 4x + 4 = x² + 5x

Hey there! :)

Please keep in mind that SOH-CAH-TOA is a life saver when it comes to trig! Where:

- SOH = Sin: opposite over hypotenuse

- CAH = Cos: adjacent over hypotenuse

- TOA = Tan: opposite over adjacent

The question is asking us to find the value of x given the following located in the image provided.

Because we've been given 51°, we'll use this angle to determine whether we're using Sin, Cos, or Tan.

We must now look at the other given variables in this triangle - specifically where they are located.

While looking at our given angle (51°), we see that x is located on the opposite side of 51° while 8 is located adjacent (also known as next) to 51°.

Because of this, we now know that we'll be using Tan (opposite over adjacent) to find the value of x because our given values are opposite and adjacent to 51°.

We now set up our equation to find the value of x:

tan (51°) = [tex]\frac{x}{8}[/tex] ⇒ we set it up this way because x is opposite of 51° & 8 is adjacent to it.

Now, we must remove all fractions. We can do this by multiplying both sides by 8.

8 × tan (51°) = [tex]\frac{x}{8}[/tex] × 8

Now, we simplify.

8 × tan (51°) = x

Now, we plug this into our calculator. Make sure your calculator is in degrees mode since we are using degrees, not radians.

8 × 1.2348 = x

Simplify.

x = 9.9

Therefore, angle x is 9.9
