Researchers are studying two populations of sea turtles. In population D, 30 percent of the turtles have a shell length greater

than 2 feet. In population E, 20 percent of the turtles have a shell length greater than 2 feet. From a random sample of 40 turtles selected from D, 15 had a shell length greater than 2 feet. From a random sample of 60 turtles selected from E, 11 had a shell length greater than 2 feet. Let pˆD represent the sample proportion for D, and let pˆE represent the sample proportion for E.
What is the probability that pˆD−pˆE is greater than 0.1917?

Response:

Detailed explanation:

The probability can be found by determining the z score,

(pˆD−pˆE) - (PD - PE)

      0.0914

10.1917 - 0.1

0.0914 = 1.0029

P(z > 1.0029) = 1 - P(z ≤ 1.0029)

The probability is acquired using the z distribution table,

P(Z > 1.0029) = 1-0.8420 = 0.1580

Which of the equations below represents a line perpendicular to the x-axis?
AnnZ [12381]
Option B Step-by-step explanation: It is established that a line perpendicular to the x-axis is parallel to the y-axis. Thus, the equation of such a line adopts the form x=(+/-)a, indicating an undefined slope, where a represents a real number. Therefore, the line x=6 is perpendicular to the x-axis.

In two or more complete sentences, describe the transformation(s) that take place on the parent function, f(x) = log(x), to achi
tester [12383]

Response:

Move 2 units to the left

Reflect the graph across the y-axis

Expand horizontally by a factor of 2

Lift vertically by 2 units

Detailed explanation:

Provided:

Basic function: f(x)=\log x

Transformed function: f(x)=\log(-2x-4)+2

Extract -2 from the transformation function f(x)

f(x)=\log[-2(x+2)]+2

Now, we can observe the step-by-step transformations

f(x)=\log x

Move 2 units to the left ( x → x+2 )

f(x)=\log(x+2)

Reflect the graph across the y-axis ( (x+2) → - (x+2) )

f(x)=\log[-(x+2)]

Expand horizontally by a factor of 2 [ -x(x+2) → -2(x+2) ]

f(x)=\log[-2(x+2)]

Lift vertically by 2 units [ f(x) → f(x) + 2 ]

f(x)=\log[-2(x+2)]+2

Simplifying the function:

f(x)=\log(-2x-4)+2

Thus, applying four transformation steps results in the new function f(x)=\log(-2x-4)+2

In American football, the playing field is 53.33 yards (yd) wide by 120 yards (yd) long. For a special game, the field staff wan
PIT_PIT [12445]

Answer:

214

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimensions of the playing field are 53.33 yards wide and 120 yards long, requiring us to compute the area by multiplying 53.33 by 120 yards. This results in 6399.6. The thickness being applied is 1.2 millimeters. To find how many containers are needed, divide the area, 6399.6 by 1.2 which equals 5333. Finally, dividing that by 25 gallons gives us 213.32, so you need to buy 214 rounded.

How much of a 90% alloy must be combined with 70% gold alloy in order to get 60 ounces of an 85% gold alloy?
Leona [12618]
Let X be the amount of 90% alloy and Y be the amount of 70% alloy. The equations are: x + y = 60  0.9x + 0.7y = 0.85 * 60 By substituting, we have: 0.9x + 0.7(60 - x) = 0.85 * 60 This simplifies to: (0.9 - 0.7)x = (0.85 - 0.7)*60 Solving for x yields: x = (0.85 - 0.7)*60/(0.9 - 0.7) x = 45 ounces For Y, we find: y = 60 - 45 y = 15 ounces
