Conservationists have despaired over destruction of tropical rain forest by logging, clearing, and burning." These words begin a report on a statistical study of the effects of logging in Borneo. Here are data on the number of tree species in 12 unlogged forest plots and 9 similar plots logged 8 years earlier:

Col1 Unlogged 2218 222015121 13 13 1913 19 15

Col2 Logged 17 4 181418151510 12 Use the data to give a 90% confidence interval for the difference in mean number of species between unlogged and logged plots. Compute degrees of freedom using the conservative methoo. Interval: ________to__________.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: -8.16 to 15.84

Step-by-step explanation: Confidence Interval is an interval in which we are a percentage sure the true mean is in the interval.

A confidence interval for a difference between two means and since sample 1 and sample 2 are under 30, will be

[tex]x_{1}-x_{2}[/tex] ± [tex]t.S_{p}\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}} }[/tex]

where

x₁ and x₂ are sample means

t is t-score

[tex]S_{p}[/tex] is estimate of standard deviation

n₁ and n₂ are the sample numbers

The estimate of standard deviation is calculated as

[tex]S_{p}=\sqrt{\frac{(n_{1}-1)s_{1}^{2}+(n_{2}-1)s_{2}^{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}-2} }[/tex]

where

s₁ and s₂ are sample standard deviation of each sample

Degrees of freedom is:

[tex]df=n_{1}+n_{2}-2[/tex]

df = 12 + 9 - 2

df = 19

Checking t-table, with 90% Confidence Interval and df = 19, t = 1.729.

The mean and standard deviation for 12 unlogged forest plots are 17.5 and 3.53, respectively.

The mean and standard deviation for 9 logged plots are 13.66 and 4.5, respectively.

Calculating estimate of standard deviaton:

[tex]S_{p}=\sqrt{\frac{(12-1)(3.53)^{2}+(9-1)(4.5)^{2}}{12+9-2} }[/tex]

[tex]S_{p}=\sqrt{\frac{299.07}{19} }[/tex]

[tex]S_{p}=[/tex] 15.74

The difference between means is

[tex]x_{1}-x_{2}[/tex] = 17.5 - 13.66 = 3.84

Calculating the interval:

[tex]t.S_{p}\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}} }[/tex] = [tex]1.729.15.74.\sqrt{\frac{1}{12} +\frac{1}{9} }[/tex]

[tex]t.S_{p}\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}} }[/tex] = [tex]27.21\sqrt{\frac{21}{108} }[/tex]

[tex]t.S_{p}\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}} }[/tex] = [tex]27.21\sqrt{0.194}[/tex]

[tex]t.S_{p}\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}} }[/tex] = 12

Then, interval for the difference in mean is 3.84 ± 12, which means the interval is between:

lower limit: 3.84 - 12 = -8.16

upper limit: 3.84 + 12 = 15.84

The interval is from -8.16 to 15.84.

(Select all that are correct) which statements describe key features of function g if g(x) = f(x + 2)

a. y-intercept at (0,4)
b. domain of {x|-♾️< x <♾️}
c. horizontal asymptote of y = 0
d. horizontal asymptote of y=2
e. y-intercept at (0,1)​

Answers

Answer:

Y-intercept (0,1) / Domain (-infinite,infinite) / horizontal asymptote y=0

The y-intercept is: (0,1)

The domain is [tex]\{x|-\infty < x < \infty\}[/tex]

The horizontal asymptote is [tex]y = 0[/tex]

The given parameters from the complete question are:

[tex]f(x) = 2^{x-2}[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = f(x + 2)[/tex]

First, we calculate the function of g(x)

[tex]g(x) = f(x + 2)[/tex]

Calculate f(x + 2)

[tex]f(x) = 2^{x-2}[/tex]

[tex]f(x + 2) = 2^{x+2-2}[/tex]

[tex]f(x + 2) = 2^x[/tex]

So:

[tex]g(x) = 2^x[/tex]

Start by calculating the y intercept:

This means, we calculate the g(x) when [tex]x=0[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = 2^x[/tex]

[tex]g(0) = 2^0[/tex]

[tex]g(0) =1[/tex]

The above computation means (a) is incorrect; but (e) is correct.

Next, calculate the domain of g(x)

[tex]g(x) = 2^x[/tex]

Some features in a function that limit the x values are: roots, fractions, etc.

[tex]g(x) = 2^x[/tex] does not have any restricting value of x.

This means the value of x ranges from negative infinity to positive infinity.

Hence, the domain is: [tex](-\infty,\infty)[/tex]

The above computation means (b) is correct

Next, calculate the horizontal asymptote.

To do this, we plot the graph of g(x) --> see attachment

Then we trace a horizontal line from the horizontal part of the curve of g(x) till it gets to the y-axis.

From the attached graph of g(x), the line touches the y-axis at [tex]y = 0[/tex]

So, the horizontal asymptote is: [tex]y = 0[/tex]

Lea solves the equation below by first squaring both sides of the equation.
3+2y=√-y
What extraneous solution does Lea obtain?
y=

Answers

Answer: IF YOU ARE ON KHAN ACADEMY THE ANSWER IS NOT -1

THE CORRECT ANSWER ON KHAN IS -9/4

For equation 3 + 2y = √(-y) the extraneous solution does Lea obtain is y = (-13 + √97) / 8 or y = (-13 - √97) / 8

What is quadratic equation?

A quadratic equation is a second-order polynomial equation in a single variable x , ax²+bx+c=0. with a ≠ 0 .

When Lea squares both sides of the equation 3 + 2y = √(-y), she gets:

(3 + 2y)² = (-y)

Expanding the left side, we get:

9 + 12y + 4y² = -y

Bringing all the terms to one side, we get a quadratic equation:

4y² + 13y + 9 = 0

We can solve this quadratic equation using the quadratic formula:

y = (-b ± √(b² - 4ac)) / 2a

Substituting the coefficients a = 4, b = 13, and c = 9, we get:

y = (-13 ± √(13² - 4(4)(9))) / 2(4)

y = (-13 ± √97) / 8

So the solutions are:

y = (-13 + √97) / 8 or y = (-13 - √97) / 8

Hence, the extraneous solution does Lea obtain is y = (-13 + √97) / 8 or y = (-13 - √97) / 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. distribute 3/4 into the parentheses, so multiply 3/4 * 8 and 3/4 * -20

2. distribute the 2 into the parentheses so multiply 2 * 3x and 2 * 5, then combine like terms

3. distribute -3 into the parentheses so -3 * 4D and -3 * -5 then add like terms

4. add like terms on both sides of the equal sign and you get 10x on both sides. this is the associative property because it doesn't matter what's inside or outside the parentheses you get the same answer no matter how you add them up

5. the first part is distributive because you distributed the three into the parentheses and the second part is commutative because you switch them around and you can get the same answer

Una recta que pasa por los puntos A (2,1) y B (6,3) y otra recta pasa por A y por el punto (0,y) ¿Cuánto vale y, si ambas rectas son perpendiculares?

Answers

The translation of the question given is

A line that passes through the points A (2,1) and B (6,3) and another line passes through A and through the point (0, y). What is y worth, if both lines are perpendicular?

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Line 1 that passes through A (2,1) and B (6,3)  

Slope (m1) = 3-1/6-2 = 2/4 = 1/2

y - 1 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] ( x -2)

2y - 2 = x- 2

y = [tex]\frac{x}{2}[/tex]

Line 2 passes through A (2,1) and (0,y)

slope (m2) =[tex]\frac{y-1}{-2}[/tex]

Line 1 and Line 2  are perpendicular

m1*m2 = -1

[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  * [tex]\frac{y-1}{-2}[/tex] = -1

y-1 = 4

y = 5

slope = -2

Equation of Line 2

Y-1 = -2(x-2)

y -1 = -2x +4

2x +y = 5

Answers

Answer:

y = -2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope, so the line's slope would be -2.

Because we have a coordinate point and the slope of the line, we can figure out the equation by using the point slope formula:

( y - y1 ) = m( x - x1 )

( y - ( - 3 ) ) = -2 ( x - 4 )

y + 3 = -2x + 8

y = -2x + 5

The equation of the line is y = -2x + 5
