A large farm wants to try out a new type of fertilizer to evaluate whether it will improve the farm’s corn production. The land

is broken into plots that produce an average of 1,215 pounds of corn with a standard deviation of 94 pounds per plot. The owner is interested in detecting any average difference of at least 40 pounds per plot. How many plots of land would be needed for the experiment if the desired power level is 90%? Assume each plot of land gets treated with either the current fertilizer or the new fertilizer

Answer:

N = 116 plots of land would be needed for the experiment if the desired power level is 90%

Step-by-step explanation:

A large farm wants to try a new fertilizer to evaluate wether it will improve the farm's yield. The land is broken into identical sized plots that produce an average of 1,215lbs/plot of beans with a SD=94lbs/plot. The owner is interested in detecting any average difference of at least 40lbs/plot. How many plots would be needed for the experiment if the desired power level is 90%?

alpha / 2 = 0.48 Z= 0.05

N = [ 0.05 * 94 / 40 ] ^2

N = 116

Here are the ingredients to make 12 cupcakes.
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Mark needs 2 kg butter, 2 kg caster sugar, 14 eggs, and 1.5 kg flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, first you double the number of kids, as Mark wants each kid to have two cupcakes, not one. (Then add 80+80 to get 160)

Now add the adults to children: 160+152=312

now divide by 12 to see how many batches of cupcakes he needs to make.

312÷12=26 So he needs to make 26 batches

Now here are the ingredients needed to make 12 batches of cupcakes (I multiplied the amount of each ingredient by 26)

5200 g (5.2 kg) butter, 5200 g (5.2 kg) caster sugar, 104 eggs, and 6500 g (6.5 kg) flour.

now make the measurements the same as Mark's ingredients (or the other way around)

(to save time I am not showing each one, just the normal ingredients turned into kg and compared)

5 kg butter < 5.2 kg butter

5 kg caster sugar < 5.2 kg butter

90 eggs < 104 eggs

5 kg flour < 6.5 kg flour

Now do a little subtraction.....

5.2 kg-5 kg = 2 kg butter is needed....

5.2 kg - 5 kg = 2 kg caster sugar is needed....

104 - 90 = 14 eggs needed....

6.5 kg - 5 kg = 1.5 kg flour needed....

And there you go!!! Hope this helped!!! :D

James folds a piece of paper in half several times,each time unfolding the paper to count how many equal parts he sees. After fo
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

There will be total 2048 parts of the given paper if James if able to fold the paper eleven times.

The needed function is y = 2 ^n

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the piece of paper James decides to fold is a SQUARE.

Now, let us assume:

n : the number of times the paper is folded.

y : The number of parts obtained after folds.

Now, if the paper if folded ONCE ⇒  n = 1

Also, when the pap er is folded once, the parts obtained are TWO equal parts.

⇒  for n = 1 , y = 2       ..... (1)

Similarly, if the paper if folded TWICE  ⇒  n = 2

Also, when the paper is folded twice, the parts obtained are FOUR equal parts.

⇒  for n = 2 , y = 4       ..... (2)

⇒y  = 2^2  =  2^n

Continuing the same way, if the paper is folded SEVEN times  ⇒  n = 7

So, y = 2^ n = 2^7 = 128

⇒  There are total 128 equal parts.

Lastly,  if the paper is folded ELEVEN  times  ⇒  n = 11

So, y = 2^ n = 2^{11} = 2048

⇒  There are total 2048 equal parts.

Hence, there will be total 2048 parts of the given paper if James if able to fold the paper eleven times.

And the needed function is y = 2 ^n

Use the coordinates of the labeled point to find the point-slope equation of the line
koban [17]

Answer:

A. y + 1 = -2(x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

point-slope equation is : y - y1 = m (x -x1)

remember m= slope value

the given point is (2, -1) therefore we can substitute the values in:

y + 1 = m(x -2)

now to make sure our answer is complete we will solve for the slope:

looking back at the graph, the y-intercept value is 3, therefore we have a point of (0,3) and (2, -1)

with any two points you can determine a slope.

y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

therefore :

-1 -3 / 2 - 0

-4 / 2 = -2

therefore our m value is -2

this makes the completed point-slope equation:

y + 1 = -2 (x - 2) or A

In triangle ABC segment DE is parallel to the side AC. (The endpoints of segment DE lie on the sides AB and BC respectively).
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

6 dm

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle DBE is similar to triangle ABC, so their side lengths are proportional.

DE/AC = DB/AB

The length of DB can be found from ...

DB +AD = AB

DB = AB -AD = (15 -10) dm = 5 dm

So, we can fill in the proportion:

DE/(18 dm) = (5 dm)/(15 dm)

DE = (18 dm)·(1/3) . . . . . . . . . . simplify, multiply by 18 dm

DE = 6 dm

_____

It can be helpful to draw and label a figure.

Which data sets have outliers? Check all that apply.
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

(B), (D) and (E)

Step-by-step explanation:

An outlier is an observation which is quite different or very far from the rest of the given values of the data set.

(A) The given data set is:

14, 21, 24, 25, 27, 32, 35

Since, in the given data set, the values ranges from 14 to 35 in which no outlier is present, thus this data set does not contain any outlier.

thus, this option is incorrect.

(B) The given data set is:

15, 30, 35, 41, 44, 50, 78

In this data set, 78 is an outlier since it is quite far from the rest of the given data values, thus this option is correct.

(C) The given data set is:

16, 32, 38, 39, 41, 42, 58

In the given data set, there is no outlier present, thus this option is incorrect.

(D) The given data set is:

17, 23, 28, 31, 39, 45, 75

In this data set, 75 is an outlier since it is quite far from the rest of the given data values, thus this option is correct.

(E) The given data set is:

18, 30, 34, 38, 43, 45, 68

In this data set, 68 is an outlier since it is quite far from the rest of the given data values, thus this option is correct.
