A researcher in environmental science is conducting a study to investigate the impact of a particular herbicide on fish. He has

60 healthy fish and randomly assigns each fish to either a treatment or a control group. The fish in the treatment group showed higher levels of the indicator enzyme. Suppose a test of significance was correctly conducted and showed no statistically significant difference in average enzyme level between the fish that were exposed to the herbicide and those that were not.
a. What conclusion can the graduate student draw from these results?

Answer:

The herbicide has no impact on fish

Step-by-step explanation:

Experimental research includes to divide the concerned group 'fishes' here into 'treatment' & 'control' group, to study impact of a treatment. Hypothesis test the statistical significance of  propositions. Null hypothesis signifies no impact, alternate hypothesis signifies impact.

Let averages enzyme level of treatment & control be Xt & Xc

  • Null Hypothesis [H0] : Xt = Xc, or Xt - Xc = 0
  • Alternate Hypothesis [H1] : Xt ≠ Xc, or Xt - Xc ≠ 0

If hypothesis test suggests that there is no significant difference between treatment & control group enzyme level, so we reject H0 & accept H1. It implies that the herbicide has no significant impact on fishes enzymes.

A new car is purchased for 15300 dollars. The value of the car depreciates at 14.25% per year. What will the value of the car be
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

\$6,082.70  

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The  formula to calculate the depreciated value  is equal to  

V=P(1-r)^{x}  

where  

V is the depreciated value  

P is the original value  

r is the rate of depreciation  in decimal  

x  is Number of Time Periods  

in this problem we have  

P=\$15,300\\r=14.25\%=0.1425\\x=6\ years

substitute in the formula

V=15,300(1-0.1425)^{6}  

V=15,300(0.8575)^{6}  

V=\$6,082.70

An accident at an oil drilling platform is causing a circular-shaped oil slick to form. The volume of the oil slick is roughly g
Basile [38]

Answer:

V(t)=0.0112\pi t^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

V(r)=0.07\pi r^{2} -----> equation A

r(t)=0.4t -----> equation B

To find out (V of r)(t) substitute equation B in equation A

V(r(t))=V(t)

V(t)=0.07\pi (0.4t)^{2}

V(t)=0.07\pi (0.16)t^{2}

V(t)=0.0112\pi t^{2}

Your school wants to take out an ad in the paper congratulating the basketball team on a successful​ season, as shown to the rig
Serga [27]

Answer:

1.4in

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of Photo = 4in

Width of Photo = 3in

Unknown:

Value of X = ?

Solution:

Follow these steps:

  Area of a rectangle  = l x w

Since the photo is a rectangle; area of photo:

  Area of photo  = 4in x 3in = 12in²

For the area of the ad;

   Length of ad  = 4 + x

   Width of ad = 3 + x

Given that,

                  the area of the photo  = \frac{1}{2} area of ad

                           12in²  = \frac{1}{2} area of ad

                   Area of ad  = 24in²

Area of the ad;

             (4 + x) (3 + x)  = 24

               12 + 4x + 3x + x² = 24

                12 + 7x + x²  = 24

                       x² + 7x = 24 - 12

                       x² + 7x = 12

                     x² + 7x - 12  = 0

            Using the almighty formula where

     a  = 1, b = 7 and c = -12

          x  = \frac{-b (+/-) \sqrt{b^{2} } - 4ac}{2a}

     

          x = \frac{-7 + \sqrt[]{-7^{2} - 4x1x-12 } }{2x1}   or \frac{-7 - \sqrt[]{-7^{2} - 4x1x-12 } }{2x1}

          x  = 1.4  or  -8.4

therefore the answer is 1.4in

x is 1.4in

What number would you multiply the second equation by in order to eliminate the x-terms when adding to the first equation? What
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

1. Multiply (2) by 2 to eliminate the x-terms when adding

2. Multiply (2) by 3 to eliminate the y- term

Step-by-step explanation:

Use this system of equations to answer the questions that follow.

4x-9y = 7

-2x+ 3y= 4

what number would you multiply the second equation by in order to eliminate the x-terms when adding the first equation?

4x-9y = 7 (1)

-2x+ 3y= 4 (2)

Multiply (2) by 2 to eliminate the x-terms when adding the first equation

4x-9y = 7

-4x +6y = 8

Adding the equations

4x + (-4x) -9y + 6y = 7 + 8

4x - 4x - 3y = 15

-3y = 15

y = 15/-3

= -5

what number would you multiply the second equation by in order to eliminate the y- term when adding the second equation?

4x-9y = 7 (1)

-2x+ 3y= 4 (2)

Multiply (2) by 3 to eliminate the y- term

4x - 9y = 7

-6x + 9y = 12

Adding the equations

4x + (-6x) -9y + 9y = 7 + 12

4x - 6x = 19

-2x = 19

x = 19/-2

= -9.5

x = -9.5

I would like to purchase 20 products at a cost of $65 per product. What would be my total with 3.5 sales tax
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Answer:

The total is: $ 1345.5

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

I would like to purchase 20 products at a cost 65.00 per product.

This means that the cost of 20 products will be:

Also, there is a sales tax of 3.5%

This means that a person has to pay a extra 3.5% on the total cost of the items he purchased.

i.e. he need to pay 3/5% on $ 1300

This means that the amount of tax he need to pay is: 3.5% of 1300

                                                                             =  3.5%×1300

                                                                            = 0.035×1300

                                                                           = $ 45.5.

Hence, the total cost is: $ 1300+$ 45.5

This means that the total cost is: $ 134.5
