At an elevation of 1221.4 feet, Lake Mead will hold 28,945,000 acre-feet of water. Which number is the best estimate of this amount of water?

3×10 6

2×10 7

2×10 7

3×10 7

2×10 8

Step-by-step explanation:

At an elevation of 1221.4 feet, Lake Mead will hold 28,945,000 acre-feet of water.

So, the amount of water that is in the lake will be 28,945,000 acre-feet which is estimated to be 30000000 acre-feet of water.

Therefore, the number is the best estimate of this amount of water. (Answer)

d. 24+-0.114

step-by-step explanation:

the question requires us to calculate the approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean number of ounces of ketchup per bottle in the sample given the following statistics;

sample mean = 24

standard deviation, σ = 0.4

sample size , n = 49

the confidence interval for a population mean is calculated using the formula;

sample mean ± z-score*(σ/sqrt(n))

the z-score associated with a 95% confidence interval, from the standard normal tables, is;

1.96

substituting these values into the formula;

24 ± 1.96*(0.4/7)

= 24 ± 0.112

from the alternatives given, choice d is closest to the above expression;
