Dairy cows at large commercial farms often receive injections of bST (Bovine Somatotropin), a hormone used to spur milk production. Bauman et al. (Journal of Dairy Science, 1989) reported that 12 cows given bST produced an average of 28.0 kg/d of milk. Assume that the standart deviation of milk production is 2.25 kg/d. (a) Find a 99% confidence interval for the true mean milk production. Round your answers to two decimal places (e.g. 98.76).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the true mean milk production is between 26.33 kg/d and 29.67 kg/d.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.005[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.005 = 0.995[/tex], so Z = 2.575.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

[tex]M = 2.575\frac{2.25}{\sqrt{12}} = 1.67[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 28 - 1.67 = 26.33 kg/d.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 28 + 1.67 = 29.67 kg/d.

The 99% confidence interval for the true mean milk production is between 26.33 kg/d and 29.67 kg/d.

Explanation:

which relation is a function?

Answers

the first one because there is only one y value for every x value. you can also use the vertical line test in which you draw vertical lines and make sure the function only passes through it once at each point

The first one because there is only one y value for every x value. The correct option is first.

To determine if a relation is a function, use the vertical line test: If any vertical line intersects the graph of the relation at more than one point, then the relation is not a function. On the other hand, if every vertical line intersects the graph of the relation at most once, then the relation is a function.

In first relation is considered a function, because each input x-value is associated with exactly one output y-value. In other words, for every x-value in the domain of the relation, there can be only one corresponding y-value in the range. Each x-value should not have more than one y-value associated with it.

Therefore, each x-value should not have more than one y-value associated with it. The correct option is first.

(a) Determine a cubic polynomial with integer coefficients which has $\sqrt[3]{2} + \sqrt[3]{4}$ as a root.

(b) Prove that $\sqrt[3]{2} + \sqrt[3]{4}$ is irrational.

Answers

Answer:

(a) [tex]x\³ - 6x - 6[/tex]

(b) Proved

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]r = $\sqrt[3]{2} + \sqrt[3]{4}$[/tex] --- the root

Solving (a): The polynomial

A cubic function is represented as:

[tex]f = (a + b)^3[/tex]

Expand

[tex]f = a^3 + 3a^2b + 3ab^2 + b^3[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]f = a^3 + 3ab(a + b) + b^3[/tex]

The root is represented as:

[tex]r=a+b[/tex]

By comparison:

[tex]a = $\sqrt[3]{2}[/tex]

[tex]b = \sqrt[3]{4}$[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]f = ($\sqrt[3]{2})^3 + 3*$\sqrt[3]{2}*\sqrt[3]{4}$*($\sqrt[3]{2} + \sqrt[3]{4}$) + (\sqrt[3]{4}$)^3[/tex]

Expand

[tex]f = 2 + 3*$\sqrt[3]{2*4}*($\sqrt[3]{2} + \sqrt[3]{4}$) + 4[/tex]

[tex]f = 2 + 3*$\sqrt[3]{8}*($\sqrt[3]{2} + \sqrt[3]{4}$) + 4[/tex]

[tex]f = 2 + 3*2*($\sqrt[3]{2} + \sqrt[3]{4}$) + 4[/tex]

[tex]f = 2 + 6($\sqrt[3]{2} + \sqrt[3]{4}$) + 4[/tex]

Evaluate like terms

[tex]f = 6 + 6($\sqrt[3]{2} + \sqrt[3]{4}$)[/tex]

Recall that: [tex]r = $\sqrt[3]{2} + \sqrt[3]{4}$[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]f = 6 + 6r[/tex]

Equate to 0

[tex]f - 6 - 6r = 0[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]f - 6r - 6 = 0[/tex]

Express as a cubic function

[tex]x^3 - 6x - 6 = 0[/tex]

Hence, the cubic polynomial is:

[tex]f(x) = x^3 - 6x - 6[/tex]

Solving (b): Prove that r is irrational

The constant term of [tex]x^3 - 6x - 6 = 0[/tex] is -6

The divisors of -6 are: -6,-3,-2,-1,1,2,3,6

Calculate f(x) for each of the above values to calculate the remainder when f(x) is divided by any of the above values

[tex]f(-6) = (-6)^3 - 6*-6 - 6 = -186[/tex]

[tex]f(-3) = (-3)^3 - 6*-3 - 6 = -15[/tex]

[tex]f(-2) = (-2)^3 - 6*-2 - 6 = -2[/tex]

[tex]f(-1) = (-1)^3 - 6*-1 - 6 = -1[/tex]

[tex]f(1) = (1)^3 - 6*1 - 6 = -11[/tex]

[tex]f(2) = (2)^3 - 6*2 - 6 = -10[/tex]

[tex]f(3) = (3)^3 - 6*3 - 6 = 3[/tex]

[tex]f(6) = (6)^3 - 6*6 - 6 = 174[/tex]

For r to be rational;

The divisors of -6 must divide f(x) without remainder

i.e. Any of the above values  must equal 0

Since none equals 0, then r is irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equations

[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex] x - [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] y = 98 ( multiply through by 5 to clear the fractions )

2x - y = 490 → (1)

[tex]\frac{2}{7}[/tex] x - [tex]\frac{1}{14}[/tex] y = 55 ( multiply through by 14 to clear the fractions )

4x - y = 770 → (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate y

2x + 0 = 280

2x = 280 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 140

x/3 + 8 = 23 . Find the value of x

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x/3 + 8 =23

=> x/3 = 23-8

=> x/3 = 15

=> x = 15 x 3

x = 45

Answer:

x=45

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x isolate the variables by using the properties of equality. First, subtract 8 from both sides, [tex]\frac{x}{3} = 15[/tex]. Then multiply both sides by 3, [tex]x=45[/tex]. Finally, to check you can plug 45 back into the equation, [tex]\frac{45}{3} +8=23[/tex]. Next, solve this equation and get 23=23, since this is a true statement 45 is correct.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is :

[tex](17)^{3}\cdot(289)^{-6}=(17)^{2m-1}[/tex]

We need to find the value of m

We know that, 17² = 289

So,

[tex](17)^{3}\cdot(17^2)^{-6}=(17)^{2m-1}\\\\(17)^{3}\cdot(17)^{-12}=(17)^{2m-1}[/tex]

Also,[tex]x^ax^b=x^{a+b}[/tex]

So,

[tex]17^{3-12}=17^{2m-1}\\\\17^{-9}=17^{2m-1}\\\\\implies -9=2m-1\\\\-9+1=2m\\\\-8=2m\\\\m=-4[/tex]

Answer:

you need to learn how to "prime factor" numbers....

primes are 2,3,5,7,11,13,17....

they go on forever. ALL whole numbers can be "broken down" into a bunch of primes multiplied together.

take the fractions (top and bottom) and start dividing them bu the smallest prime, and going up until all the numbers multiplied make the original number...

15 = 3 * 5

24= 2 * 12 = 2 * 2 * 6 = 2* 2* * 2 * 6

thus   [tex]\frac{15}{24}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3 * 5 }{2* 2* 2* 3}[/tex]  now just cancel all the SAME numbers from to to bottom

"pair them up" .... in this case only one of the threes in the bottom "takes out" one of the threes in the top

A farm grew 19.8 tons of wheat in 2013. The farm's wheat output increased by 9.8% from 2013 to 2014 and by 5.1% from 2014 to 2015. Which expression represents a for estimating the total output of wheat, in tons, in 2015?

A. 20 + 10 + 5
B. 20(10)(5)
C. 20 + 1.1 + 1.05
D. 20(1.1)(1.05)

Answers

Answer: Choice D

Explanation:

The increase of 9.8% rounds to 10% when rounding to the nearest ten

An increase of 10% would use the multiplier 1.1

Think of it like saying 1 + 0.10 = 100% + 10%

Similarly, the 5.1% rounds to 5% and an increase of this amount will use the multiplier 1.05

So if we started with 20 items, then 20(1.1)(1.05) is the expression that estimates an increase of 10% followed by an increase of 5%. The order doesn't matter (so you could increase by 5% first, then 10% later).

Ardi and Lei are both travelling by train.
Ardi's train travels 70 km in 35 minutes.
Lei's train travels 585 km.
It leaves at 9:05 and arrives at 13:35.
Work out the difference, in km/h, between the average speed of their trains.

Answers

Answer:

10 kilometer/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Average speed = Total distance travelled / Total time taken

Ardi:

Total distance travelled = 70 km

Total time taken = 35 minutes = 35/60 hour

Average speed = Total distance travelled / Total time taken

= 70 km ÷ 35/60 hr

= 70 × 60/35

= 4,200/35

= 120 kilometer/hour

Lei:

Total distance travelled = 585 km Total time taken = 9:05 - 13:35 = 4 hours 30 minutes

= 4.5 hours

Average speed = Total distance travelled / Total time taken

= 585 km / 4.5 hours

= 130 kilometer/hour

Difference, in km/h, between the average speed of their trains = Lei's train - Ardi's train

= 130 kilometer/hour - 120 kilometer/hour

= 10 kilometer/hour
