Chapter 2.4, Problem 22E
Grazing Rabbits and Sheep This is a continuation of Exercise 21. In addition to the kangaroos, the major grazing mammals of Australia include merino sheep and rabbits. For sheep, the functional response is
and for rabbits, it is
Here S and H are the daily intake (measured in pounds), and v is the vegetation biomass (measured in pounds per acre).
a. Find the satiation level for sheep and that for rabbits.
b. One concern in the management of rangelands is whether the various species of grazing animals are forced to complete for food. It is thought that competition will not be a problem if the vegetation biomass level provides at least 90% of the satiation level for each species. What biomass level guarantees that competition between sheep and rabbits will not be problem?

Peanut butter is produced from raw peanuts. During manufacturing first, the
peanut shell, soil, and sand are removed using a sheller. The removed shell, sand and
soil correspond to 2/5 of the raw material by weight entering to sheller. Then the
deshelled peanuts, containing 5.6% water, 26% protein, 47.5% fat, 18.6%
carbohydrate, and 2.3% ash, are roasted. After roasting the water content decreases
to 1.8% due to the evaporation during roasting. The roasted peanuts are then
subjected to skin removal operation in a blancher where the skins removed constitute
about 1/40 of the roasted peanuts. Finally, clean roasted peanuts are finely ground in
a grinder with addition of 1 kg hydrogenated fat and 2 kg honey per 100 kg of roasted
deskinned peanuts. The product from the grinder is filled into 250 g jars by using a
canning machine. Draw the process and calculate the quantities of all the streams per
100 kg of the roasted product entering blancher.
A manufacturer of paper used for making grocery bags is interested in improving the tensile strength of the product. Product engineering thinks that tensile strength is a function of the hard-wood concentration in the pulp and that the range of hardwood concentrations of practical interest is between 5 and 20%. A team of engineers responsible for the study decides to investigate four levels of hardwood concentration: 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%. They decide to make up six test specimens at each concentration level, using a pilot plant. Using the data given below:
a. Complete the ANOVA table.
b. At 0.05 significance level, test whether there is a difference in mean tensile strength based on Hardwood Concentration.
A soil scientist has just developed a new type of fertilizer and she wants to determine whether it helps carrots grow larger. She sets up several pots of soil and plants one carrot seed in each pot. Fertilizer is added to half the pots. All the pots are placed in a temperature-controlled greenhouse where they receive adequate light and equal amounts of water. After two months of growth, the scientist harvests the carrots and weighs them (in kilograms). Below is a data table showing the weight of the carrots at the end of the growing period from the two treatment groups.
When analyzing this dataset with a t-test, the hypothesis states that the average size of the carrots from each treatment are the same, whereas the hypothesis states that the fertilized carrots are larger in size.
To analyze this data set, should the scientist use a -tailed t-test?
After performing a t-test, what is the calculated t-value for this data set? (Round your answer to four decimal places)

Many people are infected, and many of the infected died. The number of deaths resulting from the coronavirus can be calculated as a result of the infection rate and the mortality rate. The infection rate is the number of persons in a population of 1,000,000 people who are likely to get infected. For this exercise, we assume the infection rate ranges from 10 to 25 people per million (PPM). Likewise, we assume the mortality rate (the death rate) ranges from 1000 to 2500 people per million infected (PPMI). These rates are doubled for a susceptible population (that is people who are above 60 or have other health issues). Given these data, answer the following questions. For each question, always start with the original values given here. 1) In a country with a population of 18 million, 30% of the population is above 60 years of age and the other 5% of the total population are…arrow_forward
- The number of patrol officers needed on staff depends on the crime rate of the county, which is calculated based on the number of crimes per year. At a 3% crime rate, the county hires 200 officers per 10,000 people in the population. For every 0.1% increase in crime rate, an additional 5 officers are hired per 10,000 people in the population. For every 0.1% below 3% crime rate, 3 fewer officers are hired. • A3% sign-on bonus is offered for officers with no experience when there is a 5% to 10% shortage in the number of officers employed. • A 5% sign-on bonus is offered for officers with no experience when there is an 11% or higher shortage in the number of officers employed. • A 6% sign-on bonus is offered for officers with at least 3 years of experience when there is a 5% to 10% shortage in the number of officers employed. A 10% sign-on bonus is offered for officers with at least 3 years of experience when there is an 11% or higher shortage in the number of officers employed.

The demands for these two cameras are as follows: D = demand for the Sky Eagle, Ps is the selling price of the Sky Eagle, D is the demand for the Horizon, and PH is the selling price of the Horizon. Ds = 223 -0.60PS +/0.35PH DH = 273 +0.10PS - 0.64PH The store wishes to determine the selling price that maximizes revenue for these two products. Develop the revenue function for these two models. (Enter your answer in terms of P and P.) revenue = Find the prices that maximize revenue. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)

- A house is purchased for $140,000 in January 2004. A year later, the house next door is sold for $149,800. The two houses are of the same style and size and are in similar condition, so they should have equal value.Use the model v = 140e0.0676586485t, where t is the number of years after January 2004 and v is the value in thousands of dollars, to predict when the house would be worth $290,000.arrow_forwardIn a study of a marine tubeworm, scientists developed a model for the time T (measured in years) required for the tubeworm to reach a length of L meters. On the basis of their model, they estimate that 170 to 250 years are required for the organism to reach a length of 2 meters, making this tubeworm the longest-lived noncolonial marine invertebrate known. The model is given below. T = 20ebL − 28 b Here b is a positive constant that requires estimation. What is the value of b if an estimate of 175 years to reach a length of 2 meters is correct? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) b = What is the value of b if an estimate of 230 years to reach a length of 2 meters is correct?
