A biologist is studying the plant diversity in 15 million acres of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. He will count the number of species in 150 acres. Match the strategies to their corresponding sampling techniques.
1- The biologist classifies the Sierras into 10 different ecological types and then makes sure that the proportion of each ecological type from the sample is the same as the proportion of that of the population.
2- The biologist orders the 15 million acres by latitude and then surveys every 100000th acre on the list.
3- The biologist goes to 15 diverse locations that have 10 acres each and surveys all 10 acres for each of these 15 locations.
4- The biologist enters the 15 million acres into a data base and had a computer randomly select 150 of these acres.
5- The biologist goes to his 150 favorite hiking places and looks at an acres along each trail.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is -

1. B. stratified sampling

2. C. Systematic Sampling

3. A. Cluster Sampling

4. E. Simple Random Sampling

5. D. Convenience Sampling

Explanation:

Stratified sampling is a method in which samples have collected from a population that can be partitioned into subpopulations, categories or strata.

Systematic sampling is the method in which samples are at low risk of manipulation due to the getting samples ordered sampling range or frame.

Cluster sampling is the sampling that has random clusters of samples and data collected from selected clusters.

In a simple random sampling method, there are equal chances to get selected from a population in the sampling method.

Convenience Sampling is the sampling there is a selection of the data as these samples are convenient to collected and selected.

A medical researcher is studying the spread of a virus in a population of 1000 laboratory mice. During any week, there is a 70% probability that an infected mouse will overcome the virus, and during the same week there is a 40% probability that a noninfected mouse will become infected. Four hundred mice are currently infected with the virus. How many will be infected next week and in 3 weeks?
(a) next week mice rilex
(b) in 3 weeks mice

Answers

Answer:

a) 360 mice

b) 364 mice

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume :

A = number of infected mice , B = number of non-infected mice

P( infected mice overcoming infection ) = 70% = 0.7

P ( Infected mice not overcoming infection ) = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3

P( mice becoming infected ) = 40% = 0.4

P ( mice not becoming infected ) = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6

Number of infected mice = 400

Number of non-infected mice = 1000 - 400 = 600

step 1 ; express the probabilities in matrix form

[tex]P = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.3&0.4&\\0.7&0.6&\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

[tex]X = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}400\\600\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

step 2 : multiply the matrix above to determine the number of mice that will be infected

a) For next week

PX = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}360\\640\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

i.e. 360 mice will get infected next week

next 2 week = P ( PX )

= [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.3&0.4&\\0.7&0.6&\\\end{array}\right][/tex]  * [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}360\\640\\\end{array}\right][/tex]  = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}364\\636\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

b) In 3 weeks time

P ( P(PX) = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0.3&0.4&\\0.7&0.6&\\\end{array}\right][/tex]  * [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}364\\636\\\end{array}\right][/tex]  

               = [tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}363.6\\636.4\\\end{array}\right][/tex]

i.e.  364 mice will get infected in 3 weeks time

Find the mean absolute deviation of this set of data. PLEASE PUT STEPS

Answers

Answer:

10.125

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

28,45,12,34,36,45,19,20

The mean absolute deviation of the data is :

Σ|x - mean| / n

n = number of values = 8

Mean = Σx / n = 239 / 8

Mean = 29.875

Take the sum of the absolute value if the difference between each data value and the mean, then divide by the data size

Using a mean absolute deviation calculator ;

Mean absolute deviation = Σ|x - mean| / n = 10.125

If the function f(2x + 3) = 3x- 8, find f -¹(x)​

Answers

Answer:

(2x + 35)/3

Step-by-step explanation:

f(2x + 3) = 3x - 8

= 3(2x)/2 - 8

= 3(2x + 3 - 3)/2 - 8

= 3(2x + 3)/2 - 3(3)/2 - 8

= ( 3(2x + 3) - 25)/2

Therefore, f(x) = (3x - 25)/2

Let f(x) = (3x - 25)/2 = y

Therefore,

x = (2y + 35)/3 = f(y)

Hence,

f-¹(x) = f(y) = (2y + 35)/3

Just by merely replacing y,

f-¹(x) = (2x + 35)/3

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]let~g(x)=2x+3,~ then~f\circ g(x)=f(g(x)=3x-8\\\\[/tex]

lets assume that f(x) is a line, so f(x)=mx+b

[tex]f(g(x))=m(2x+3)+b=2mx+3m+b=3x-8[/tex]

the follow equation system results:

[tex]2m=3 \\ 3m+b=-8[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{3}{2}\\\\b=-\frac{25}{2}[/tex]

finally:

[tex]y=f(x)=\frac{3}{2}x-\frac{25}{2}[/tex]

now is time to calculate the inverse function:

[tex]y=\frac{3}{2}x-\frac{25}{2}=>2y+25=3x=>x=\frac{2}{3}y+\frac{25}{3}[/tex]

how do i solve this problem

Answers

Answer:

[tex]A\approx 159.6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Approach

To solve this problem, divide the given figure up into two smaller figures, a rectangle and a semi-circle. Find the area of each figure and add up the values to find the total area. Remember the formula to find the area of a rectangle is as follows ([tex]A=(length)(width)[/tex]). The formula to find the area of a circle is the following, ([tex]A=(\pi)(r^2)[/tex]).

2. Find the area of the rectangle

The radius is the measurement in a circle from the center of a circle to any point on the circle's circumference (outer edge). The diameter is a line going through a circle connecting two opposite edges on a circle and passing through the center of a circle. By its definition, the diameter is always twice the radius of a circle.

As one can see in the rectangle, the side of the rectangle is made of the diameter of the circle. Since the diameter of a circle is twice the radius, one must multiply the radius by (2), then multiply that value by the length of the rectangle to find the area of the rectangle,

[tex]A=(length)(width)\\[/tex]

Substitute,

[tex]A_r=(length)(2(radius))\\A_r=(14)(2(5))[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex]A_r=(14)(2(5))\\A_r=(14)(10)\\A_r=140[/tex]

3. Find the area of the semi-cricle

Now one has to find the area of the semi-circle. Since a semi-circle is half of a circle, one must divide the formula to find the area of a circle by (2) in order to find the area of a semi-circle. Remember parameter (r) represents the radius, and ([tex]\pi[/tex]) represents the numerical value (3.1415...)

[tex]A=\frac{(\pi)(r^2)}{2}[/tex]

Substitute,

[tex]A_s=\frac{(\pi)(5^2)}{2}[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex]A_s=\frac{(\pi)(5^2)}{2}\\A_s=\frac{(\pi)(25)}{2}\\A_s=12.5\frac{(\pi)}{2}\\A_s\approx19.635[/tex]

4. Find the total area

To find the total area of the figure, one must add up the two components, add the area of the rectangle to the area of the semi-circle,

[tex]A=A_r+A_s\\[/tex]

Substitute,

[tex]A=140+19.635[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex]A=159.635[/tex]

[tex]A\approx 159.6[/tex]

Answer:

  5x +2y = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose 'a' is the x-intercept of the line.

Then the slope is given by the slope formula ...

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (0 -5)/(a -2)

And the y-intercept is ...

  b = y -mx = 5 -(-5/(a-2))(2) = 5 +10/(a -2)

The area of the triangle is half the product of 'a' and 'b', so is ...

  A = 1/2ab

  A = 1/2(a)(5 +10/(a -2)) = 2.5a +5a/(a-2)

The area is minimized when the derivative of this is zero.

  A' = 2.5 -10/(a -2)^2 = 0

Solving for 'a' gives ...

  (a -2)^2 = 10/2.5 = 4

  a = 2 + 2 = 4 . . . . . . . . . . . x-intercept

  b = 5 +10/(4 -2) = 10 . . . . . y-intercept

  m = -5/(4 -2) = -5/2 . . . . . . slope

An equation of the line is ...

  y = -5/2x +10 . . . . . slope-intercept form

  5x +2y = 20 . . . . . standard form

__

You may have noticed that the x-and y-intercepts are double the x- and y-values of the given point. That is, the given point is the midpoint of the hypotenuse of the triangle with minimum area. That is the general solution of this sort of problem.
