Answer 1

Answer:

The man has been dead for 9 days. This is because this is the only day on the chart where all the types of insects coexist.

Step-by-step explanation:

5 species of insects were found at the same time alive on the dead man's body.

These 5 insects are then sent to the lab to be studied and larvae/eggs from them, raised under similar conditions to the conditions of the dead body.

The activity the eggs are them studied and presented in the chart provided

Insect/Day 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Blowfly 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0

Species A 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1

Species B 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 0

Species C 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1

Species D 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 1

Note that 0 represents a non-activity on the part of the egg of the insect specie.

From the chart, the first time all 5 insects coexist together at the same time just like they were found in the dead body is on the 9th day. Before the 9th day, all 5 insects do not coexist at the same time and even beyond the 9th day, on the 10th day, insect specie B stops existing.

So, it is evident that the man has been dead for 9 days as that's the only day on the chart where all the types of insects coexist.

Hope this Helps!!!

Find the area of the regular polygon.

Round your answer to the

nearest tenth if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete as the dimension of the polygon is not given.

However, I'll give a general explanation of how to calculate the area of a regular polygon.

If you follow these simple steps, you'll arrive at your answer.

The area of a polygon is calculated as thus;

A = ½(nbh)

Where A represent the area

n represents the number of sides

b represents the length of the base

h represent the height of the polygon

Take for instance, the polygon is a regular pentagon.

This means n = 5.

Also assume that the base and the height are 5cm and 7cm respectively.

This means that

Area = ½ * (5 * 5 * 7)

Area = ½ * 175

Area = 87.5cm²

Hence, the area of the polygon is 87.5cm²

Part a

H0: µ2≤µ1 versus H1: µ2>µ1

(Upper tailed test)

WE will consider differences as (New – Old).

From given data, we have

Dbar = 0.70

SD = 0.70

n = 5

Degrees of freedom = df = n – 1 = 5 – 1 = 4

Test statistic = t = (Dbar - µd) /[SD/sqrt(n)]

t = (0.70 – 0)/[0.70/sqrt(5)]

t = 0.70/ 0.3130

t = 2.2361

Critical value = 2.1318

(by using t-table)

P-value = 0.0445

(by using t-table)

P-value < α = 0.05

So, we reject the null hypothesis

There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the average monthly sales revenue increases after the advertising.

Kindly check the first attached image for the graphical table.

Part b

P-value = 0.0445

α = 0.01

P-value > α = 0.01

So, we do not reject the null hypothesis

There is insufficient evidence to conclude that the average monthly sales revenue increases after the advertising.

  2j -20 ≤ 46

Step-by-step explanation:

"20 less than double the number Jason [hit]" can be represented by 2j-20.

We are told that 46 is no fewer than this value, so it is greater than or equal to this value:

A researcher developing scanners to search for hidden weapons at airports has failed to conclude that a new scanner is significantly better than the current scanner. He made his decision based on a test using alpha equals 0.025 . Would he have made the same decision at alpha equals 0.10 question mark How about alpha equals 0.01 question mark Explain.

Answers

Answer:

Yes, he would take the same decision.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consequently, because the decision is taken on the test based on the use of alpha equals 0.025, the p-value of the test must have been greater than the given amount of importance that is 0.025 since the test is not applicable to us. So, p > 0.025.

If we know that p > 0.025, that would not mean p > 0.1 as well, because we do not know with the details given he had to make the same decision for 0.1 degree of meaning.

As for the 0.01 significance point, we 're sure p > 0.01 is greater than 0.025, so the test does not matter.

how do i factor the "common factor out of each expression?" ex:

12n^6 + 27n^2 - 18


whoever answers correct/ first ill give brainliest

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A "common factor" is either a constant coefficient or a variable which shows up in every term of a given algebraic expression.  

Here we start with the expression  12n^6 + 27n^2 - 18.  'n' does not show up in every term and thus could not be a "common factor" of this expression.  On the other hand, 12, 27 and -18 can all be divided by 3, and so 3 is a common factor.

12n^6 + 27n^2 - 18 = 3(4n^6 + 9n^2 - 6)

1)  Identify the common factor (here it's 3)

2) Factor that out of the given expression:   3(4n^6 + 9n^2 - 6)

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation: The median is the middle number in the data set when the data set is written from least to greatest.

So let's write our data set from least to greatest.

So we have 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 6, 6, 10.

Now, notice that there are two numbers that appear in the middle.

I have underlined them above.

When two numbers appear in the middle that are the same number (4 and 4), the median will be the same number too.

So the median of the given data set is 4.

The desired percentage of Silicon Dioxide (SiO2) in a certain type of aluminous cement is 5.5. To test whether the true average percentage is 5.5 for a particular production facility, 16 independently obtained samples are analyzed and a sample mean of 5.25 was obtained. Suppose that the percentage of SiO2 in a sample is normally distributed with a sigma of 0.3. Does this indicate conclusively that the true average is smaller than 5.5? Carry the procedure at a 0.01 significance level. Use only the P-Value approach. State H0 and Ha

Answers

Answer:

a)  Null hypothesis : H₀ : μ = 5.5

 Alternative Hypothesis : H₁ : μ < 5.5

b) The test statistic

        |t| = |-3.33| = 3.33

c) P - value lies between in these intervals

0.001 < P < 0.005

Step-by-step explanation:

Step( i ):-

Given data the Population mean 'μ' = 5.5

The small sample size 'n' = 16

The sample mean (x⁻) = 5.25

Given the  percentage of SiO2 in a sample is normally distributed with a sigma of 0.3.

Null hypothesis : H₀ : μ = 5.5

 Alternative Hypothesis : H₁ : μ < 5.5

 Level of significance ∝ = 0.01

Step(ii):-

 The test statistic

                              [tex]t = \frac{x^{-} -mean}{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

                             [tex]t = \frac{5.25 -5.5}{\frac{0.3}{\sqrt{16} } }[/tex]

On calculation , we get

                            t = -3.33

                           |t| = |-3.33| = 3.33

Step(iii):-

P - value

The degrees of freedom γ = n-1 = 16-1 =15

The calculated value t = 3.33 (check t-table) lies between the 0.001 to 0.005

0.001 < P < 0.005

Condition(i)

P - value < ∝ then reject H₀

Condition(ii)

P - value > ∝ then Accept H₀

we observe that  0.001 < P < 0.005

P- value < 0.01

we rejected  H₀

(or)

The tabulated value  = 2.60 at 0.01 level of significance with '15' degrees of freedom

The calculated value t = 3.33 > 2.60 at 0.01 level of significance with '15' degrees of freedom

The null hypothesis is rejected

Conclusion:-

Accepted Alternative hypothesis H₁

The Claim that the true average is smaller than 5.5

a. Yes


b. No


c. Unable to determine.

Answers

Answer:

a. Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

If the absolute value of the z-score is 2 or larger, X is considered a surprising outcome.

In this question:

[tex]\mu = 7, \sigma = 3[/tex]

Would you be surprised if it took less than one minute to find a parking space?

We have to find the z-score when X = 1. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{1 - 7}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2[/tex]

Since Z = -2, the correct answer is:

a. Yes

a square stained window is divided into four congurent traiangular sections by iron edging to represent seasons of the year. Each diagonal measures 9 inches. What is the total length of iron edging needed to create the sqaure frame and two diagnols?

Answers

Answer:

Total length of iron needed to make the square frame and two diagonals =  43.44 in (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of diagonal = 9 in

Find:

Total length of iron needed to make the square frame and two diagonals.

Computation:

Area of square = 1/2(diagonal)²

Area of square = 1/2(9)²

Area of square = 40.5 in²

Area of square = Side × Side

40.5 in² = Side × Side

Side = 6.36 (approx)

Total length of iron needed to make the square frame and two diagonals = Permeter of square + (2 × diagonal)

⇒ (4 × 6.36) + (2 × 9)

⇒ (25.44) + (18)

⇒ 43.44 in

Total length of iron needed to make the square frame and two diagonals =  43.44 in (Approx)
