The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) uses sample surveys to obtain important economic estimates. One USDA pilot study estimated the price received by farmers for corn sold in January from a sample of 20 farms. The mean price was reported as $3.64 per bushel with a standard deviation of $0.0835 per bushel. Give a 95% confidence interval for the mean price received by farmers for corn sold in January.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

{$3.60; $3.68}

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for a sample of size 'n', with mean price 'X' and standard deviation 's' is determined by:

[tex]X\pm z*\frac{s}{\sqrt n}[/tex]

The z-score for a 95% confidence interval is 1.96.

Applying the given data, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

[tex]3.64\pm 1.96*\frac{0.0835}{\sqrt 20} \\L=\$3.60\\U=\$3.68[/tex]

The confidence interval for the mean price received by farmers for corn sold in January is:

CI : {$3.60; $3.68}

What is Algebra?

A branch of mathematics known as algebra deals with symbols and the mathematical operations performed on them.

Variables are the name given to these symbols because they lack set values.

In order to determine the values, these symbols are also subjected to various addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division arithmetic operations.

Given:

a=b+12

So, b=a-12 ---- equation (i)

and, b= c+4

Substitute the value of b from the equation (I)

a-12=c+4

a=c+4+12

a=c+16

Hence, the value of a+ c is 16.

3. A plane travels at a constant speed. It takes 6 hours to travel 3,360 miles. (20 points)
a. What is the plane's speed in miles per hour?
b. At this rate, how many miles can it travel in 10 hours?​

Answers

Answer:

a. The plane's speed in mph is 560

b. At this rate, the plane can travel 5,600 miles in 10 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the planes speed in mph, some simple arithmetic must be done and you should divide 3,360 by 6.   Now that you have determined that 3,360/6 equals 560, you know that in order to figure out how many miles the plane can travel in 10 hours, all you must do is multiply 560 by 10 which equals 5,600.

Answer:

A. 560B. 5,600

Step-by-step explanation:

A. = 3,360 / 6 = 560B. = 560 x 10 = 5,600

Jennifer has carpet in her square bedroom. She decides to also purchase carpet for her living room which is rectangular in shape and 9 feet longer than her bedroom.
The area of the carpet required in the living room is given by the quadratic expression below, where x represents the side length, in feet, of the carpet in the bedroom.

X^2 + 9X

Match each part of the expression with what is represents.

Answers

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Let's highlight the dimensions of the bedroom and living room using the information given in the question:

==>Squared Bedroom dimensions:

Side length = w = x ft

Area = x*x = x²

==>Rectangular living room dimensions:

width = side length of the squared bedroom = x

length = (x + 9) ft

Area = L*W = x*(x+9) = x² + 9x

Now let's match each given expression with what they represent:

==>"the monomial, x, a factor of the expression x² + 9x" represents "the width of the carpet in the living room"

As we have shown in the dimensions of the squared bedroom above.

==>"the binomial, (x + 9), a factor of the expression x² + 9x" represents "the length of the carpet in the living room" as shown above in the dimensions for living room

==>"the second-degree term of the expression x² + 9x" represents "the area of the carpet in the bedroom"

i.e. the 2nd-degree term in the expression is x², which represents the area of the carpet of the given bedroom.

==>"the first-degree term of the expression x2 + 9x" represents "the increase in the area of carpet needed for the living room".

i.e. 1st-degree term in the expression is 9x. And it represents the increase in the area of the carpet for the living room. Area of bedroom is x². Area of carpet needed for living room increased by 9x. Thus, area of carpet needed for living room = x² + 9x

BIG Corporation advertises that its light bulbs have a mean lifetime, μ, of 2800 hours. Suppose that we have reason to doubt this claim and decide to do a statistical test of the claim. We choose a random sample of light bulbs manufactured by BIG and find that the mean lifetime for this sample is 2620 hours and that the sample standard deviation of the lifetimes is 650 hours.

In the context of this test, what is a Type II error?

A type II error is (rejecting/failing to reject) the hypothesis that μ is (less than/less than or equal to/greater than/greater than or equal to/not equal to/equal to) ____ when in fact, μ is (less than/less than or equal to/greater than/greater than or equal to/not equal to/equal to) ______.

Answers

Answer:

A type II error is failing to reject the hypothesis that μ is equal to 2800 when in fact, μ is less than 2800.

Step-by-step explanation:

A Type II error happens when a false null hypothesis is failed to be rejected.

The outcome (the sample) probability is still above the level of significance, so it is consider that the result can be due to chance (given that the null hypothesis is true) and there is no enough evidence to claim that the null hypothesis is false.

In this contest, a Type II error would be not rejecting the hypothesis that the mean lifetime of the light bulbs is 2800 hours, when in fact this is false: the mean lifetime is significantly lower than 2800 hours.

The polynomial-7.5x^2 + 103 + 2142 models the yearly number of visitors (in thousands) x years after 2007 to a park. Use this polynomial to estimate the number of visitors to the park in 2021.

Answers

Answer:

In that year approximately 2114 thousand people visited the park.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the expression [tex]y(x) = -7.5*x^2 + 103*x + 2142[/tex] models the number of visitors in the park, where x represents the number of years after 2007 and 2021 is 14 years after that, then we need to find "y" for that as shown below.

How many gallons of a 50% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 90 gallons of 10% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 40% antifreeze? Use the six step method.​

Answers

Answer:

x = 270 gallons

270 gallons of a 50% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 90 gallons of 10% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 40% antifreeze

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of gallons of the 50% antifreeze solution.

The volume of the 10% antifreeze is = 90 gallons

The volume of the mixture that is 40% antifreeze = 90+x

The amount of antifreeze in the two solutions must be equal to the amount of anti freeze in the mixture;

50% of x + 10% of 90 = 40% of (90+x)

0.50(x) + 0.10(90) = 0.40(90+x)

0.50x + 9 = 36 + 0.40x

Collecting the like terms;

0.50x - 0.40x = 36-9

0.10x = 27

x = 27/0.10

x = 270 gallons

270 gallons of a 50% antifreeze solution must be mixed with 90 gallons of 10% antifreeze to get a mixture that is 40% antifreeze

Pls help me find the volume of this solid

Answers

Answer:

240cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's assume the entire shape is full rectangular prism without that has the middle being cut out.

What this means is that, to get the volume of the solid made out of clay, we would calculate the solid as a full rectangular prism, then find the volume of the assumed middle cut-out portion. Then find the difference between both.

Let's solve:

Find the volume of the rectangular prism assuming the solid is full:

Volume of prism = width (w) × height (h) × length (l)

w = 4cm

h = 7cm

l = 3+6+3 = 12cm

Volume of full solid = 4*7*12 = 336cm³

Next, find the volume of the assumed cut-out portion using same formula for volume of rectangular prism:

w = 4cm

h = 7-3 = 4cm

l = 6cm

Volume of assumed cut-out portion = 4*4*6 = 96cm³

Volume of solid made from clay = 336cm³ - 96cm³ = 240cm³

Answers

Answer:

The time period is 13 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest rate (r )= 5% or 5%/12 = 0.42% per months

The investment amount (Present value) = $10500

Final expected amount (future value) = $20000

Since we have given the initial amount and final amount. Therefore we have to calculate the time period for which the initial amount is kept in the bank.

Use the below formula to find the time period.

Future value = present value (1 + r )^n

20000 = 10500(1+0.0042)^n

1.9047619 = (1+0.0042)^n

1.9047619 = 1.0042^n

n = 153.74 months.

Answers

Answer: 20 cm

If quadrilaterals WXYZ and BADC are congruent, then their corresponding sides are congruent.

Given that

WX≅DC,

XY≅BC,

you can state that

YZ≅AB,

WZ≅AD.

If AD = 4 cm and AB = 6 cm, then WZ = 4 cm and YZ = 6 cm. Opposite rectangle sides are congruent, then XY = 4 cm and WX = 6 cm.

The perimeter of WXYZ is

P = WX + XY + YZ + WZ = 6 + 4 + 6 + 4 = 20 cm.
