We wish to determine the proportion of small- to medium-sized streams in eastern North Carolina which have runoff from hog farms in order to prepare for issues arising from water quality in the aftermath of hurricanes. A random sample of 174 small- to medium-sized streams is selected and it is found that 100 of them have runoff from hog farms. Which of the following is the value of the parameter of interest in this setting?
a. 0.02322.
b. 0.240.
c. 0.760.
d. the value of the parameter of interest cannot be determined from the given information.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of the parameter of interest in this setting is 0.5747.

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameter of interest is:

The proportion of small- to medium-sized streams in eastern North Carolina which have runoff from hog farms in order to prepare for issues arising from water quality in the aftermath of hurricanes.

A random sample of 174 small- to medium-sized streams is selected and it is found that 100 of them have runoff from hog farms.

This means that the value of the parameter of interest is:

[tex]p = \frac{100}{174} = 0.5747[/tex]

The value of the parameter of interest in this setting is 0.5747.

In a class of students, the following data table summarizes how many students have a cat or a dog. What is the probability that a student chosen randomly from the class has a cat or a dog?
Has a cat Does not have a cat
Has a dog 9 2
Does not have a dog 4 5

Answers

Answer:

0 students have a cat and 92 students have a dog

The probability that a student is chosen randomly from the class has a cat or a dog is 15/20.

What is the probability?

Probability refers to a possibility that deals with the occurrence of random events. The probability of all the events occurring need to be 1.

The formula of probability is defined as the ratio of a number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes.

P(E) = Number of favorable outcomes / total number of outcomes

The class has a cat and a dog = 9

Has a dog and does not have a cat = 2

Does not have a dog and has a cat = 4

Does not have dog and cat = 5

The total strength of the class is 20

The probability that a student is chosen randomly from the class has a cat or a dog =  Number of favorable outcomes / total number of outcomes

P(E) = 15 /20

Hence, The probability that a student is chosen randomly from the class has a cat or a dog is 15/20.

Step-by-step explanation:

length = 4.6 m

breadth = 360 cm = 360 ÷ 100 = 3.6 m

Perimeter = 2*(l + b)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A ≤ B ≤ C

largest angle is 16 less than 4 times the smallest angle

C = 4A-16

middle angle is 7 more than half the measure of the largest angle

B = C/2 + 7

A+B+C = 180°

A = 28 ⅐°

B = 55 2/7°

  143 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is dimensioned in such a way that it can be divided easily into three rectangular areas. The top rectangle is 10 in wide and 7 in high. The vertical rectangle below that is 4 in wide and 12 in high, and the square appendage on the right is 5 in square.

Then the total area is the sum of products of length and width:

  A = (10 in)(7 in) + (4 in)(12 in) + (5 in)(5 in) = (70 +48 +25) in²

  A = 143 in²

The area of the irregular figure is 143 in².

Hello your question has some missing information below is the complete question

answer :

[tex]a_{n} = a_{n-2} + a_{n-2} + a_{n-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Red car and Blue car take up 2 spaces each

Green cars take up 1 space

lets determine the number of ways of filling up the parking spaces

i) First lets assume the last space is filled by Green car then there will be [tex]n^{th}[/tex] space occupied hence there will be ( n - 1 ) spaces left to be filled in [tex]a_{n-1}[/tex] ways

ii) lets assume the last space is filled by either a Red car or a Blue car then there will be [tex]n^{th} + ( n -1 )^{st}[/tex]  parking space occupied hence there will be

( n - 2 ) spaces left to be filled in [tex]a_{n-2}[/tex] ways

Hence A closed formula for [tex]a_{n}[/tex]

[tex]a_{n} = a_{n-2} + a_{n-2} + a_{n-1}[/tex]

where : a1 = 1 way ,  a2 = 3 ways

Answers

Answer:

(i) (-3/2, 3/2) and (1/2, - 3/2)

6x + 4y = - 3

(ii) Points are col linear

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the coordinates of the point(lower) be (a, b) and that of upper be (x, y).

Using mid point formula,

Mid point of diagonal(using the given points) is:

= ( (-2+1)/2 , (-1+1)/2) = (-½ , 0)

Using (a, b) and (x, y) :

= ( (a+x)/2 , (b+y)/2 ) = (-1/2, 0)

Which means, a+x= -1 & b + y = 0

Therefore, x = - 1 - a & b = - y

Using distance formula, diagonal = √(-2-1)² + (-1-1)² = √13

Knowing the relation in diagonal and side, side = diagonal/√2 = √13/√2 = √(13/2)

Again using distance formula, diagonal = √13

=> √(x - a)² + (y - b)² = √13

=> (-1-a -a)² + (-b - b)² = 13

=> a² + b² + a = 3 ... (1) [solved directly]

Length of side = √(13/2)

=> √(a-(-2))² + (b-(-1))² = √(13/2)

=> a² + b² + 4a + 2b = 3/2 ...(2)

On solving (1) and (2):

a = 1/2 or -3/2, but a lies in 4th quadrant so a > 0, thus, a = 1/2

b = -3/2 or 3/2, but b lies in 4th quadrant so b < 0, b = -3/2

Therefore,

x = - 1 - a = -1 - 1/2 = -3/2

y = - b = - (-3/2) = 3/2

Vertices are (x, y) = (-3/2, 3/2) and (a, b) = (1/2, -3/2)

Equation is just a relation in y and x, for a relation:

Subtract (1) from (2):

3a + 2b = -3/2 => 6a + 4b = - 3

By merely replacing a, b by x, y

6x + 4y = -3 is the required equation

(ii):

Ar. of ∆ = ½ | 1(3 - 5) + 2(5 - 2) + 4(2 - 3) |

Ar. of ∆ = ½ | -2 + 6 - 4 | = 0

As the area of the ∆ is 0, the given points don't form ∆, they are col linear.
