Farmers know that driving heavy equipment on wet soil compresses the soil and injures future crops. Here are data on the "penetrability" of the same type of soil at two levels of compression. Penetrability is a measure of how much resistance plant roots will meet when they try to grow through the soil.

Compute degrees of freedom using the conservative method.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

To see if driving heavy equipment on wet soil compresses it causing harm to future crops, the penetrability of two types of soil were measured:

Sample 1: Compressed soil

X₁: penetrability of a plot with compressed soil.

n₁= 20 plots

X[bar]₁= 2.90

S₁= 0.14

Sample 2: Intermediate soil

X₂: penetrability of a plot with intermediate soil.

n₂= 20 (with outlier) n₂= 19 plots (without outlier)

X[bar]₂= 3.34 (with outlier) X[bar]₂= 2.29 (without outlier)

S₂= 0.32 (with outlier) S₂= 0.24 (without outlier)

Outlier: 4.26

Assuming all conditions are met and ignoring the outlier in the second sample, you have to construct a 99% CI for the difference between the average penetration in the compressed soil and the intermediate soil. To do so, you have to use a t-statistic for two independent samples:

Parámeter of interest: μ₁-μ₂

Interval:

[(X[bar]₁-X[bar]₂)±*Sa]

[(2.90-2.29)±2.715*0.20]

[0.436; 0.784]

I hope this helps!

answer: 91

step-by-step explanation:

i leave the calculator work to you.

7. diameter 4 miles, circumference 4π miles

8. radius 0.2 miles, circumference 0.4π miles

[this is a bad problem because the actual radius of a car on the track is less than 0.2 miles so the answer is less than 0.4π miles]

9. radius 6 feet, circumference 12π feet

10. diameter 14 cm, circumference 14π cm

11. diameter 4.8 feet, circumference 4.8π feet
