An agricultural research scientist is interested in determining an appropriate amount of nitrogen for a newly developed soybean fertilizer. This researcher is considering four amounts of nitrogen: 60 lbs/acre, 65 lbs/acre, 70 lbs/acre, and 75 lbs/acre. To investigate this research questions, five fields (with differing soil types) at different locations in a Midwestern state are selected for a study. Each field is divided into four plots. For each field, each of the four nitrogen amounts is randomly assigned to one plot each. Each plot is treated with the fertilizer containing the assigned amount of nitrogen. After harvest, the soybean yield (in bu/acre) for each plot is determined. Below are the results of this experiment, with soybean yield reported for each plot. The row and column sample means are also provided. Field
Nitrogen Amount 1 2 3 4 5 Mean
60 lbs/ acre 52.9 45.3 53.0 59.0 44.6 50.96
65 lbs/ acre 43.3 38.5 50.8 53.4 53.2 47.84
70 lbs/ acre 48.8 47.0 53.8 61.6 53.7 52.98
75 lbs/ acre 58.2 53.6 55.0 57.0 56.3 56.02
Mean 50.80 46.10 53.15 57.75 51.95 51.95

step-by-step explanation:

ratios represent a pattern or relationship that can be scaled.

equivalent ratios are pairs of ratios that represent the same relationship between quantities, and can be generated by multiplying or dividing both quantities in the ratio by the same factor.

in this lesson, students will use double number lines and ratio reasoning to solve ratio problems. by partitioning double number lines into proportionate intervals, students will build an understanding of equivalent ratio relationships as those that are generated by multiplying or dividing two related quantities by the same number. this lesson will build upon students' prior understanding of multiplicative comparisons, number line reasoning and equivalent fractions (while highlighting the difference between equivalent fractions and equivalent ratios); and will build toward future work in this unit on building ratio tables, and work in future grades in proportionality, scaling, and expressing and graphing linear functions.
