(Scientific Notation in the Real World MC)

The length of a bacterial cell is about 3 x 10−6 m, and the length of an amoeba cell is about 4.5 x 10−4 m. How many times smaller is the bacterial cell than the amoeba cell? Write the final answer in scientific notation with the correct number of significant digits.

2 x 102
2 x 103
0.7 x 101
6.67 x 102

Answers

Answer 1

By dividing the length of bacteria cell to length of amoeba cell we find option (D) i.e 6.67x102 is the correct answer.

what is division?

Division is an arithmetic operation that involves dividing one number (the dividend) by another number (the divisor) to find the quotient.

What are different arithmetic operators?

Arithmetic operators are symbols that represent mathematical operations that can be performed on one or more operands. The most common arithmetic operators are:

Addition (+): Adds two operands and produces the sum.

Subtraction (-): Subtracts one operand from another and produces the difference.

Multiplication (*): Multiplies two operands and produces the product.

Division (/): Divides one operand by another and produces the quotient.

Modulo (%) : Divides one operand by another and produces the remainder.

Exponentiation (**): Raises one operand to the power of the other and produces the result.

To compare the sizes of the two cells, we need to divide the length of the bacterial cell by the length of the amoeba cell. The result is 3 x 10^−6 m / 4.5 x 10^−4 m = 0.67 x 10^−2.

So, the bacterial cell is approximately 0.67 x 10^−2 times smaller than the amoeba cell.

The correct answer is therefore (D) 6.67 x 10

  9. 38 women

Step-by-step explanation:

8. The price for s songs is ...

  A = 10 +0.89s

  B = 1.19s

We want A < B, so ...

  10 +0.89s < 1.19s

  10 < 0.30s

A backpack is on sale for $51.00. This is 75% of the original price. What was the original price?

Answers

Original price= $204.

100%-75%= 25% or 0.25.

51 = 0.25 * n (original price)

Divide 0.25 on both sides

51/0.25 = 204

N=204

A company that produces white bread is concerned about the distribution of the amount of sodium in its bread. The company takes a simple random sample of 100 slices of bread and computes the sample mean to be 103 milligrams of sodium per slice. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the unknown mean sodium level assuming that the population standard deviation is 10 milligrams.

Answers

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the unknown mean sodium level is between 100.42 milligrams of sodium per slice and 105.58 milligrams of sodium per slice.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.005[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.005 = 0.995[/tex], so Z = 2.58.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

[tex]M = 2.58\frac{10}{\sqrt{10}} = 2.58[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 103 - 2.58 = 100.42 milligrams of sodium per slice.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 103 + 2.58 = 105.58 milligrams of sodium per slice.

The 99% confidence interval for the unknown mean sodium level is between 100.42 milligrams of sodium per slice and 105.58 milligrams of sodium per slice.

An environmentalist wants to find out the fraction of oil tankers that have spills each month. Step 1 of 2: Suppose a sample of 211 tankers is drawn. Of these ships, 146 did not have spills. Using the data, estimate the proportion of oil tankers that had spills. Enter your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The estimate of the proportion of oil tankers that had spills is 65/211 = 0.308.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion of oil tankers that had spills.

Number of tankers with spills divided by the total number of tankers.

In this question:

211 tankers

146 did not have spills, so 211 - 146 = 65 had

Proportion:

[tex]p = \frac{65}{211} = 0.308[/tex]

The estimate of the proportion of oil tankers that had spills is 65/211 = 0.308.

A machine used to fill beverage cans is supposed to put exactly 12 ounces of beverage in each can, but the actual amount varies. The standard deviation of fill volumes is 0.05 ounce. How large a sample of cans must be selected to estimate the population mean fill volume with a 95% confidence interval that has a margin of error of 0.008 ounce? Round your answer UP to the nearest integer.

Answers

Answer:

A sample of 151 cans must be selected.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

The standard deviation of fill volumes is 0.05 ounce.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 0.05[/tex]

How large a sample of cans must be selected to estimate the population mean fill volume with a 95% confidence interval that has a margin of error of 0.008 ounce?

We need a sample of n.

n is found when M = 0.008. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.008 = 1.96\frac{0.05}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.008\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.05[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.05}{0.008}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*0.05}{0.008})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 150.1[/tex]

Rounding up:

A sample of 151 cans must be selected.

Hello your question has some missing information below is the complete question

answer :

[tex]a_{n} = a_{n-2} + a_{n-2} + a_{n-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Red car and Blue car take up 2 spaces each

Green cars take up 1 space

lets determine the number of ways of filling up the parking spaces

i) First lets assume the last space is filled by Green car then there will be [tex]n^{th}[/tex] space occupied hence there will be ( n - 1 ) spaces left to be filled in [tex]a_{n-1}[/tex] ways

ii) lets assume the last space is filled by either a Red car or a Blue car then there will be [tex]n^{th} + ( n -1 )^{st}[/tex]  parking space occupied hence there will be

( n - 2 ) spaces left to be filled in [tex]a_{n-2}[/tex] ways

Hence A closed formula for [tex]a_{n}[/tex]

[tex]a_{n} = a_{n-2} + a_{n-2} + a_{n-1}[/tex]

where : a1 = 1 way ,  a2 = 3 ways
