A large sleep study involving over 5000 American teenagers examined how many hours the participants slept on the weekend. The nightly sleep times were distinctly non-normal with a mean of 10 hours and a standard deviation of 2 hours. Suppose we take a random sample of 100 nightly sleep times from this population. We can assume that the times in the sample are independent. What is the probability that the mean of these 100 sleep times is farther than 0.4 hours away from the population mean?
a) 0455
b) .02
c) 1
d) .02275

Answer 1

Answer:

.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Khan

Answer 2

Using the normal distribution and the central limit theorem, it is found that the probability that the mean of these 100 sleep times is farther than 0.4 hours away from the population mean is:

a) 0.0455

Normal Probability Distribution

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X. By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n, as long as n > 30, is approximately normal and has standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

In this problem:

Mean of 10 hours, hence [tex]\mu = 10[/tex].Standard deviation of 2 hours, hence [tex]\sigma = 2[/tex].Sample of 100, hence [tex]n = 100, s = \frac{2}{\sqrt{100}} = 0.2[/tex].

We want the probability that the mean is farther than 0.4 hours away from the population mean, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem:

[tex]Z = \frac{0.4}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.4}{0.2}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2[/tex]

The probability is P(|Z| > 2), which is 2 multiplied by the p-value of Z = -2.

Z = -2 has a p-value of 0.0275.2 x 0.0275 = 0.0455

Hence, option A is correct.

C. square root of two minus square root of six divided by four.

Step-by-step explanation:

sine of negative eleven pi divided by twelve.

We have :

sin(-11π/12)

sin((4 - 15)π / 12) = sin(4π/12 - 15π/12)

sin(4π/12 - 15π/12) = sin(π/3 - 5π/4)

Recall:

Angle difference formula:

sin(A - B) = sinAcosB - sinBcosA

Hence,

sin(π/3 - 5π/4) = sin(π/3) cos(5π/4) − sin(5π/4) cos(π/3)

From trigonometry:

sinπ/3 = √3/2

cos5π/4 = -√2/2

sin5π/4 = -√2/2

cos π/3 = 1/2

(√3/2) (-√2/2) − (-√2/2) (1/2)

-√6/4 - -√2/4

-√6/4 + √2/4

√2/4 - √6/4

Answers

Answer:

Improper fraction: 23/4

Mixed number: 5 3/4

Answer:

5 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

how many times does 4 go into 23? well 4×5=20, which seems like too little, so we'll try 4×6=24,

but that's too much so were sticking with the 5. So 5 is the first number

then since 4 times 5 is 20. but you have 23, there are 3 extra numbers

So you make them into a fraction: 3/4

So the answer is 5 3/4

also 23/4 is the improper fraction, 5 3/4 is the mixed number

A carpenter is making a ramp for a ski jump.

The ramp is made from a 25 ft. board titled at

a 30° angle from the ground. Approximately

how far off the ground is the end of the ramp?

Answers

Answer:

12.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we would be applying Pythagoras theorem to it.

Assuming that our given angle is the hypotenuse. Since it says it's closer to the elevated angle. Then, we're looking for a side, A, which is on the opposite side of the angle in the question.

Using sine rule, we know that

Sin 30 = x/25

x = 25 sin 30

x = 25 * 0.5

x = 12.5 ft

Therefore the answer is 12.5 ft

Given the system of constraints name all vertices. Then find the maximum value of the given objective
x≥0
y≥0
y≤ 1/3x+1
5≥y+x
Objective function C = 7x-2y​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]35[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The constraints are

The red line represents the function

[tex]y\leq \dfrac{1}{3}x+1[/tex]

At [tex]y=0[/tex]

[tex]0=\dfrac{1}{3}x+1\\\Rightarrow -1=\dfrac{1}{3}x\\\Rightarrow x=-3[/tex]

At [tex]x=0[/tex]

[tex]y=0+1\\\Rightarrow y=1[/tex]

Two points are [tex](-3,0),(0,1)[/tex]

The blue line represents the function

[tex]5\geq y+x[/tex]

at [tex]y=0[/tex]

[tex]5=x[/tex]

at [tex]x=0[/tex]

[tex]y=5[/tex]

Two points are [tex](5,0),(0,5)[/tex]

The other two constraints are [tex]x\geq 0[/tex], [tex]y\geq 0[/tex]. So, the point has to be in the first quadrant

From the graph it can be seen there are two points where the function will be maximum let us check them.

[tex](3,2)[/tex]

[tex]7x-2y=7\times 3-2\times 2=17[/tex]

[tex](5,0)[/tex]

[tex]7x-2y=7\times 5-2\times 0=35[/tex]

So, the maximum value of the function is [tex]35[/tex].

Over what interval does this function remain constant? Do not use any spaces in your interval.

Answers

Answer:

We conclude that the function remains constant over the interval [0, 2].

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that if x increases from left to right and y remains constant, the function remains constant over a certain interval.

From the given graph below, it is clear that from x = 0 to x = 2 the value of y does not change.

In other words, the value of y remains constant from x = 0 to x = 2.

i.e.

at x = 0, y = 5

at x = 1, y = 5

at x = 2, y = 5

Therefore, we conclude that the function remains constant over the interval [0, 2].

A photographer is 6 feet tall and cast a shadow that is 2 feet long. He is photographing a palm tree with a shadow that is 7 feet long. What is the height of the tree

Answers

Answer: The height of the tree is 21 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we can assume that the angle at which the sun impacts the photographer and the tree to be the same angle.

Then we can think in both cases as triangles rectangles, where the height is a cathetus, and the shadow is the other cathetus.

Then we will have a relationship like:

Tg(angle) = shadow/height

height = shadow/Tg(angle)

Now, because for both triangles we have the same angle, then Tg(angle) will be the same number for both cases, and we can just think of it as constant K

Tg(angle) = K

Then we have the equation:

Height = Shadow/K

We know that the photographer is 6ft tall, and his shadow is 2 ft long, we can replace those two things in the above equation and find the value of k:

6ft = 2ft/K

K = 2ft/6ft = (1/3)

Now we know that the shadow of the tree is 7ft long, then the height will be:

height = 7ft/(1/3) = 7ft*3 = 21ft

The tree is 21 ft tall.

Answers

Answer:

0. See explanation below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Grayson is playing a game in which the objective is to obtain a zero, by adding together the points scored in each round.

For rounds 1 to 4,

4 + 7 + 1 + -12  =  12 - 12  = 0

The summation of points in the first four rounds already results to a zero.

Let us see if the addition of any of the three options for round 5 will still result in a zero!

0 + -24  =  -24

0 + -11    =  -11

0 +  12    =  12

So all the options here are wrong. The only option that would have been correct is 0.

Since   4 + 7 + 1 + -12 + 0  = 0

Maybe the complete question has 0 as the fourth option. Use that.
