A car company claims that its cars achieve an average gas mileage of at least 26 miles per gallon. A random sample of eight cars form this company have an average gas mileage of 25.5 miles per gallon and a standard deviation of 1 mile per gallon. At α=0.06, can the company’s claim be supported, assuming this is a normally distributed data set?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]t=\frac{25.5-26}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{8}}}=-1.414[/tex]    

The degrees of freedom are given by:

[tex]df=n-1=8-1=7[/tex]  

The p value for this case is given by:

[tex]p_v =P(t_{(7)}<-1.414)=0.100[/tex]  

Since the p value is higher than the significance level of 0.06 we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly less than 25.5 and then the claim makes sense

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

[tex]\bar X=25.5[/tex] represent the sample mean

[tex]s=1[/tex] represent the sample standard deviation

[tex]n=8[/tex] sample size  

[tex]\mu_o =26[/tex] represent the value to verify

[tex]\alpha=0.06[/tex] represent the significance level  

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value

Hypothesis to est

We want to test if the true mean is at least 26 mpg, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]\mu \geq 25.5[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]\mu < 25.5[/tex]  

The statistic for this case is given by;

[tex]t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]  (1)  

Replacing the info given we got:

[tex]t=\frac{25.5-26}{\frac{1}{\sqrt{8}}}=-1.414[/tex]    

The degrees of freedom are given by:

[tex]df=n-1=8-1=7[/tex]  

The p value for this case is given by:

[tex]p_v =P(t_{(7)}<-1.414)=0.100[/tex]  

Since the p value is higher than the significance level of 0.06 we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly less than 25.5 and then the claim makes sense

A group of 8 friends (5 girls and 3 boys) plans to watch a movie, but they have only 5 tickets. If they randomly decide who
what is the probability that there are at least 3 girls in the group that watch the movle?

Answers

Answer:

53.57%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate first the specific number of events that interest us, if at least 3 are girls, they mean that 2 are boys, therefore we must find the combinations of 3 girls of 5 and 2 boys of 3, and multiply that, so :

# of ways to succeed = 5C3 * 3C2 = 5! / (3! * (5-3)!) * 3! / (2! * (3-2)!)

 = 10 * 3 = 30

That is, there are 30 favorable cases, now we must calculate the total number of options, which would be the combination of 5 people from the group of 8.

# of random groups of 5 = 8C5 = 8! / (5! * (8-5)!) = 56

That is to say, in total there are 56 ways, the probability would be the quotient of these two numbers like this:

P (3 girls and 2 boys) = 30/56 = 0.5357

Which means that the probability is 53.57%

Use the following information for questions 34-36: Deanna is the principal at a Midwestern middle school and wants to know the average IQ of all female, seventh grade students. She does not know anything about what the population distribution looks like. She took a simple random sample of 31 seventh-grade girls in her school and found the average IQ score in her sample was 105.8 and the standard deviation was 15. Based on the interval you calculated in question 34, does it seem plausible that the true average IQ score for all seventh-grade female students at this school is 113

Answers

Answer:

Since, 113 is on the confidence interval obtained (97.502, 114.098), so, we can suggest that is plausible that the true average IQ score for all seventh-grade female students at this school is 113.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question isn't complete, the missing part asked us to obtain a 99.5% confidence interval for the true average IQ score

Finding the confidence interval using the sample data provided, we can answer the question of plausibility.

Confidence Interval for the population mean is basically an interval of range of values where the true population mean can be found with a certain level of confidence.

Mathematically,

Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± (Margin of error)

Sample Mean = 105.8

Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the mean.

It is given mathematically as,

Margin of Error = (Critical value) × (standard Error of the mean)

Critical value will be obtained using the t-distribution. This is because there is no information provided for the population mean and standard deviation.

To find the critical value from the t-tables, we first find the degree of freedom and the significance level.

Degree of freedom = df = n - 1 = 31 - 1 = 30

Significance level for 99.5% confidence interval

(100% - 99.5%)/2 = 0.25% = 0.0025

t (0.0025, 30) = 3.03 (from the t-tables)

Standard error of the mean = σₓ = (σ/√n)

σ = standard deviation of the sample = 15

n = sample size = 30

σₓ = (15/√30) = 2.739

99.5% Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± [(Critical value) × (standard Error of the mean)]

CI = 105.8 ± (3.03 × 2.739)

CI = 105.8 ± 8.298

99.5% CI = (97.502, 111.387)

99.5% Confidence interval = (97.502, 114.098)

Since, 113 is on the confidence interval obtained, so, we can suggest that is plausible that the true average IQ score for all seventh-grade female students at this school is 113.

Answers

The correct answer is C. Kelli put 6 red marbles and 5 blue marbles in a bag. The probability of selecting a red marble is 6 /11

Explanation:

Theoretical probability occurs as you calculate the probability of a specific outcome in a situation, without experimenting or observing it. Because of this, the probability is theoretical rather than experimental. Also, you can know this, if you divide the number of specific favorable outcomes by the total of possible outcomes.

Option C shows a theoretical probability because this is the only case the probability has not been observed or experimented. Also, expressing the probability as 6/11 is completely correct because 6 is the total of red marbles(possible desired outcomes), while 11 is the total marbles (possible outcomes).

Use the mathematical induction to prove that 7^n -1 is divisible by 6 whenever n is a positive integer

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) first of all, let s check for n = 1

[tex]7^1 -1=7-1=6[/tex]

that s true

2) We assume that this is true for n

[tex]7^n-1[/tex] is divisible by 6

what about [tex]7^{n+1}-1[/tex] ?

we know that there is a k natural so that [tex]7^n-1=6k[/tex]

so [tex]7^n = 1+6k[/tex]

then [tex]7^{n+1} = 7*7^n = 7(1+6k)\\[/tex]

so [tex]7^{n+1}-1 = 7(1+6k)-1 = 6+7*6k = 6(1+7k)[/tex]

so it means that [tex]7^{n+1}-1[/tex] is divisible by 6

3) finally as this is true for n=1 and if this is true for n then it is true for n+1 we can conclude that [tex]7^n-1[/tex] is divisible by 6 for n positive integer

Step-by-step explanation:

For rounding questions, you want to look at the place value to the right of the digit it wants you to round to. If that place value to the right of the digit you need to round is less than 5, you round down. If the place value to the right of the digit you need to round is 5 or greater, then you round up. In your situation, the place value you want to round is the hundreds place, so we need to look at the tens value. The tens value is 4, which is less than 5, so we round down. Therefore, the answer would be 1000.

- 1 week

'Mean waiting time' is determined through the contemplated value of an odd(random/casual) variable.

Given that,

Probability(P) of no accident taking place in 1 year = 5%

Assuming T be the accidents' number that takes place during a year,

Since 5% is the probability or chance of no accident to take place,

The mean waiting time between accidents = 1 week at least via Poisson process.

55% probability that a randomly selected depth is between 2.25 m and 5.00 m

Step-by-step explanation:

An uniform probability is a case of probability in which each outcome is equally as likely.

For this situation, we have a lower limit of the distribution that we call a and an upper limit that we call b.

The probability that we find a value X between c and d is given by the following formula.

[tex]P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d - c}{b - a}[/tex]

While conducting experiments, a marine biologist selects water depths from a uniformly distributed collection that vary between 2.00 m and 7.00 m.

Part 3

To make the second batch of punch go further Josie adds 2 more litres of lemonade.
What is the ratio of fruit juice to lemonade in the second batch?

Answers

Answer:

Part 1.

Juice = 8 L.

Lemonade = 32 L.

Part 2.

20 L punch Josie can make.

Part 3.

New ratio juice : lemonade = 2 : 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1.

1+4 = 5 parts altogether, 1 parts for juice and 4 parts for lemonade.

40 : 5 = 8 L is 1 part.

Juice - 1 part - 8 L.

Lemonade - 4 parts - 4*8 = 32 L.

Part 2.

1 parts of juice needs 4 parts of lemonade

4 L of juice     needs  x L of lemonade

1 : 4 = 4 : x

x = 4*4/1 = 16 L lemonade

4+ 16 = 20 L punch Josie can make

Part 3.

It was 4 L of juice and 16 L of lemonade.

After 2 L lemonade was added, we have 4 L of juice and (16+2) = 18 L of lemonade.

4 L juice : 18 L lemonade = 4/2 L juice : 18/2 L lemonade =

= 2 L juice: 9L lemonade

New ratio juice : lemonade = 2 : 9
