Aging workers of the Neotropical termite, Neocapritermes taracua, develop blue crystal containing glands ("backpacks") on their backs, When they fight intruding termites and are hampered, these "blue" termites explode, and the glands spew a sticky liquid (Sobotnik et al. 2012). The following data are from an experiment that measured the toxicity of the blue substance. A single drop of the liquid extracted from blue termites was placed on individuals of a second termite species, Labiotermes labralis, and the number that were immobilized (dead or paralyzed) within 60 minutes was recorded. The frequency of this outcome was compared with a control treatment in which liquid from glands of "white" termites lacking the blue crystals was dropped instead.
Is the blue liquid toxic compared to liquid from white termites?
Liquid source Unharmed Immobilized
Blue workers 3 37
White workers 31 9

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes blue liquid is toxic

Step-by-step explanation:

H0: p1 = p2

H1: p1>p2

For blue

We calculate proportion as

37/40 = 0.925

For white

9/40 = 0.2250

To get p

(X1 + x2)/(n1 + n2)

= 0.5750

After calculating the z as statistic (please check attachment) I got 6.33

P value = 0.0000

We reject null hypothesis and say in conclusion that enough evidence exists for us to say blu liquid is toxic!

Thank you!

At 7:00 one Summer morning Harry and Hermione hopped into their speedy more motorboat and left Hogwarts dock. They arrived at Dumbledore Wharf 35 minutes later. During the busy summer months a car ferry departs from Dumbledore wharf every five minutes. Tourists crowd onto the ferry for the 55 minute ride to Hogswarts dock. If Harry and Hermione followed the route that the car ferries take, how many car ferries did they see on their trip?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  19

Step-by-step explanation:

If we assume that the car ferries start at or before 6:05, and each 5 minutes thereafter, and if we count the ferries at the dock on either end, the total number seen is the number of ferries encountered in ...

  55 +35 = 90 . . . minutes

That is, it is the number already in transit when they leave, plus the number that start while they are traveling.

That's 90/5 +1* = 19 ferries.

_____

The attached diagram can give an idea. Each up-sloping line represents a ferry in-transit. The left side is Dumbledore Wharf; the right side is Hogwarts dock. Each horizontal unit represents the distance traveled by a ferry in 5 minutes. Each vertical unit represents a 5-minute interval.

The down-sloping line represents the motorboat travel. The dots at either end of the latter line represent car ferries that are at the dock, just arriving or just-departing. Altogether, there are 17 places where the lines cross, in addition to the boats at the docks.

__

* the +1 is because the number of points defining intervals is 1 more than the number of intervals.

HELP HELP HELP HELP

Answers

Answer:

L = 20

W = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

L = (w + 10)

NL = (w + 13)

Divide 299 by 13:

299 ÷ 13 = 23

So, 23 x 13 = 299

L = 23

W = 13

Subtract 3 from both to get the original length and width

diride 660cm in the ratio of 5:6​

Answers

Answer:

Thus, the measure 660 cm is divided into 300 + 360 in the ratio of 5:6

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations

We are required to divide 660 cm in the ratio 5:6, or 5/6.

Let's call:

x = first part of 660

660 - x = second part of 660

The ratio between them is 5/6.

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{x}{660-x}=\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

The above equation will result in x as the smaller part of 660.

Multiply by (660-x)*6 to eliminate denominators:

[tex]\displaystyle (660-x)*6\cdot\frac{x}{660-x}=(660-x)*6\cdot\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Operating:

[tex]6x=(660-x)*5[/tex]

[tex]6x=3300-5x[/tex]

Simplifying:

[tex]6x+5x=3300[/tex]

[tex]11x=3300[/tex]

Solving:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\frac{3300}{11}=300[/tex]

The other part is 660 - 300 = 360

Thus, the measure 660 cm is divided into 300 + 360 in the ratio of 5:6

You are playing a video game. For each diamond you collect, you earn 110 points. You also earn 80 bonus points by completing the level in less than 2 minutes. You need to earn more than 1620 points to continue on to the next level. Write and solve an inequality that represents the numbers d of diamonds you must collect in less than 2 minutes to advance to the next level.

Answers

Answer:

110d + 80 > 1620

d > 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of points from collecting diamonds can be represented by 110d, since you get 110 points for each diamond, d

Add 80 to this to represent the bonus points.

Use a greater than inequality, because you have to get more than 1620 points.

Put this all together:

110d + 80 > 1620

Then, solve for d:

110d + 80 > 1620

110d > 1540

d > 14

So, you have to collect more than 14 diamonds in less than 2 minutes in order to advance to the next level.

Salena needs to purchase 9 skirts for a new job. her friend, Jamie goes with her each of the skirts costs $41. Salena says that she can find the total cost by multiplying 9 and 4 and adding that to product of 9 and 1. Jamie disagrees and says that she needs to find the product of 9 and 40 and add that to the product of 9 and 1. Who is correct and why?

Answers

Answer:

Jamie is correct. This is because 41 is a combination of 40 and 1. Salena thinks that the 4 is just a 4, however, the 4 is in the tens place, so the 41 without the 1 is 40. The answer to this 41 times 9 is 369. Not 45.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each skirt is $41

Salena needs 9

(9*40) + (9*1)

360   +   9

    $369
