A physicist examines 25 water samples for nitrate concentration. The mean nitrate concentration for the sample data is 0.165 cc/cubic meter with a standard deviation of 0.0783. Determine the 80% confidence interval for the population mean nitrate concentration. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 2 : Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 80% confidence interval for the the population mean nitrate concentration is (0.144, 0.186).

Critical value t=1.318

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate a 80% confidence interval for the mean.

The population standard deviation is not known, so we have to estimate it from the sample standard deviation and use a t-students distribution to calculate the critical value.

The sample mean is M=0.165.

The sample size is N=25.

When σ is not known, s divided by the square root of N is used as an estimate of σM:

[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{N}}=\dfrac{0.078}{\sqrt{25}}=\dfrac{0.078}{5}=0.016[/tex]

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

[tex]df=n-1=25-1=24[/tex]

The t-value for a 80% confidence interval and 24 degrees of freedom is t=1.318.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

[tex]MOE=t\cdot s_M=1.318 \cdot 0.016=0.021[/tex]

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

[tex]LL=M-t \cdot s_M = 0.165-0.021=0.144\\\\UL=M+t \cdot s_M = 0.165+0.021=0.186[/tex]

The 80% confidence interval for the population mean nitrate concentration is (0.144, 0.186).

D) Identify any unusual event amongst the three events in A, B and C. Explain the reasoning.

a) None.

b) Events A and B.

C) Event A

D) Event C

Solution

This is a normal distribution problem with

Mean = μ = 500

Standard deviation = σ = 10.4

A) Probability that a randomly selected medical student who took the test had a total score that was less than 484 = P(x < 484)

We first normalize or standardize 484

The standardized score for any value is the value minus the mean then divided by the standard deviation.

z = (x - μ)/σ = (484 - 500)/10.4 = - 1.54

To determine the required probability

P(x < 484) = P(z < -1.54)

We'll use data from the normal distribution table for these probabilities

P(x < 484) = P(z < -1.54) = 0.06178

B) Probability that a randomly selected study participant's response was between 504 and 516 = P(504 ≤ x ≤ 516)

We normalize or standardize 504 and 516

For 504

z = (x - μ)/σ = (504 - 500)/10.4 = 0.38

For 516

z = (x - μ)/σ = (516 - 500)/10.4 = 1.54

To determine the required probability

P(504 ≤ x ≤ 516) = P(0.38 ≤ z ≤ 1.54)

We'll use data from the normal distribution table for these probabilities

P(504 ≤ x ≤ 516) = P(0.38 ≤ z ≤ 1.54)

= P(z ≤ 1.54) - P(z ≤ 0.38)

= 0.93822 - 0.64803

= 0.29019

C) Probability that a randomly selected study participant's response was more than 528 = P(x > 528)

We first normalize or standardize 528

z = (x - μ)/σ = (528 - 500)/10.4 = 2.69

To determine the required probability

P(x > 528) = P(z > 2.69)

We'll use data from the normal distribution table for these probabilities

PP(x > 528) = P(z > 2.69) = 1 - P(z ≤ 2.69)

= 1 - 0.99643

= 0.00357

D) Only the event in (c) is unusual as its probability is less than 0.05.

Equivalen a 2083 litros.

Step-by-step explanation:

Los dueños del restaurante tienen un reservorio de agua cuyo volumen es de 6.25 m^3.

Si han utilizado 2/3 del reservorio, esto implica que aún quedan en el reservorio una tercera parte del volumen original (1/3).

Entonces, la cantidad de metros cúbicos (m^3) de agua que quedan en el reservorio se puede calcular como:

[tex]V=(1/3)\cdot V_0=(1/3)\cdot6.25\,m^3=2.083\,m^3[/tex]

Este valor equivale a un volumen en litros de:

5. Lana pays a semiannual premium of $300 for automobile insurance, a monthly premium of $100 for health insurance, and an annual premium of $700 for life insurance.

Find her monthly expense.

Answers

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

We want to find out how much Lana pays per month. Let's dissect each payment we are given so we can find our monthly expense.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

AUTOMOBILE INSURANCE

$300 for automobile insurance semiannually

The prefix semi- means half. Annual means year. So, she is paying $300 every half year, or six months. So, we can divide 300 by 6 to find how much she pays in one month!

300/6=50

Therefore, she pays $50 a month for automobile insurance.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

HEALTH INSURANCE

We are told here that she pays $100 every month for health insurance. We don't need do anything else here!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

LIFE INSURANCE

We see that Lana pays $700 per year on life insurance. We can divide this by 12 to find out how much there is in 1 month!

700/12≈58.33

Therefore, she pays $58.33 every month on life insurance.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

SOLUTION

Now, we just add all of these monthly totals up to find Lana's monthly expense.

50+100+58.33=208.33

Therefore, Lana's monthly expense is $208.33.

Let P=Mount Peak

Let K=Mount Killimanjaro

The equation should then be

P=K+765   ... 2

sub equation 2 into 1

12555=P+P+765

12555-765=2P+765-765               (subtracting 765 from both sides)

11790=2P

P=5895, now that we know P

we just make a new equation that was similiar to 1

12555=5895+K

(c) The probability that at least one head is observed in three tosses is 0.875.

(d) The expected value of X is 1.5.

(e) The standard deviation of X is 2.121.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is: A fair coin is tossed three times. Let X be the number of heads observed in three tosses of this fair coin.

(a) Find the probability distribution of X.

(b) Find the probability that two or fewer heads are observed in three tosses. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

(c) Find the probability that at least one head is observed in three tosses. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

(d) Find the expected value of X. (Round your answer to one decimal place.)

(e) Find the standard deviation of X. (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

Now, firstly the sample space obtained in three tosses of a fair coin is given as;

Sample Space (S) = {HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, HTT, TTH, THT, TTT}

(a) The Probability distribution of X is given below;

   Number of Heads (X)         P(X)            [tex]X \times P(X)[/tex]               [tex]X^{2} \times P(X)[/tex]

              1                                [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] = 0.375         0.375                     0.375  

              2                               [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] = 0.375         0.75                          3

              3                               [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] = 0.125          0.375                    3.375

           Total                                                    1.5                        6.75          

(b) The probability that two or fewer heads are observed in three tosses is given by = P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 2)

      P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

                     = 0.125 + 0.375 + 0.375

                     = 0.875

(c) The probability that at least one head is observed in three tosses is given by = P(X [tex]\geq[/tex] 1)

      P(X [tex]\geq[/tex] 1) =  1 - P(X = 0)

                    =  1 - 0.125

                    =  0.875

(d) The expected value of X = E(X) =  [tex]\sum (X \times P(X))[/tex]

                                                              =  1.5

(e) The Variance of X = V(X) = [tex]E(X^{2} ) - ( E(X))^{2}[/tex]

                                      =  [tex]\sum (X^{2} \times P(X))- (\sum (X \times P(X)))^{2}[/tex]

                                      =  [tex]6.75 - 1.5^{2}[/tex]  = 4.5

Now, Standard deviation of X = [tex]\sqrt{V(X)}[/tex]

                                                  = [tex]\sqrt{4.5}[/tex]  = 2.121.

We have two chords CD and AB intersecting at E.

Using the theorem of intersecting chords

AE X EB =CE X ED

AE=10CE=4AB=16

AB=AE+EB

16=10+EB

EB=16-10=6

Therefore:

AE X EB =CE X ED

10 X 6 = 4 X ED

ED =60/4 =15

Therefore:

CD=CE+ED

CD=19

Recall that CD is a diameter of the circle and;

The company produces two types of goods in quantities of x and y, with market prices of €40 and 80€, respectively. If the production cost is given by function C(x,y) =2x^2+5y^2+120 and is not exceeding €250. What is the max profit obtained?

Answers

Answer:

€ 270

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the production cost C(x,y) = 2x² + 5y² + 120 is less than or equal to 250, we have  2x² + 5y² + 120 ≤ 250

The selling price S(x,y) = 40x + 80y

The profit P(x,y) = S(x,y) - C(x,y) = 40x + 80y - 2x² - 5y² - 120

Using the principle of lagrange multipliers, we want to maximize the profit P(x,y) under the condition that C(x.y) ≤ 250.

So, dP/dx = 40 - 4x , dC/dx = 4x, dP/dy = 80 - 10y , dC/dy = 10y

dP/dx + λdC/dx = 0

40 - 4x + 4λx = 0  (1)

4λx = 4x - 40

λ = (x - 10)/x

dP/dy + λdC/dy = 0

80 - 10y + 10λy = 0 (2)

substituting λ into (2), we have

80 - 10y + 10(x - 10)y/x = 0

multiplying through by x, we have

80x - 10xy + 10xy - 100y = 0

80x - 100y = 0

80x = 100y

x = 100y/80

x = 5y/4

substituting x into C(x,y) ≤ 250, we have

2(5y/4)² + 5y² + 120 ≤ 250

25y²/8 + 5y² + 120 ≤ 250

25y² + 40y² + 960 ≤ 2000

65y² ≤ 2000 - 960

65y² ≤ 1040

y² ≤ 1040/65

y² ≤ 16

y ≤ ±√16

y ≤ ± 4 since its quantity, we take the positive value.

So x = 5y/4 = 5(± 4)/4 = ± 5

So, x ≤ ± 5

For the maximum value for the profit, P(x,y), we take the maximum values of x and y which are x = 5 and y = 4. Substituting these values into P(x,y), we have

P(5,4) = 40(5) + 80(4) - 2(5)² - 5(4)² - 120

= 200 + 320 - 50 - 80 - 120

= 520 - 250

= 270

So, the maximum profit obtained is € 270

C. 5.78 hrs < μ1 - μ2 < 17.02 hrs
D. 5.92 hrs < μ1 - μ2 < 16.88 hrs

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the confidence interval for the difference of two population means is expressed as

Confidence interval = (x1 - x2) ± z√(s²/n1 + s2²/n2)

Where

x1 = sample mean of type A paint

x2 = sample mean of type B paint

s1 = sample standard deviation type A paint

s2 = sample standard for type B paint

n1 = number of samples of type A paint

n2 = number of samples of type B paint

From the information given,

x1 = 75.7

s1 = 4.5

n1 = 11

x2 = 64.3

s2 = 5.1

n2 = 9

x1 - x2 = 75.7 - 64.3 = 11.4

√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2) = √(4.5²/11 + 5.1²/9) = √4.709

Degree of freedom = (n1 - 1) + (n2 - 1)

df = (11 - 1) + (9 - 1) = 18

For the 98% confidence interval, the z score from the t distribution table is 2.552

Margin of error = 2.552√4.709 = 5.55

The upper boundary for the confidence interval is

11.4 + 5.55 = 16.95 hours

The lower boundary for the confidence interval is

11.4 - 5.55 = 5.85 hours

The correct option is

B. 5.85 hrs < μ1 - μ2 < 16.95 hrs

Answers

Answer:

The most realistic value for the standard deviation is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard deviation of a distribution is a measure of dispersion. It is a measure of the spread of the distribution from the mean of the distribution. It expresses how far most of the distribution is from the mean.

Mathematically, the standard deviation is given as the square root of variance. And variance is an average of the squared deviations from the mean.

Mathematically,

Standard deviation = σ = √[Σ(x - xbar)²/N]

x = each variable (ranges from 34 to 99)

xbar = mean = 78

N = number of variables

Now taking the given possible values of the standard deviation one at a time,

-14

The standard deviation cannot be negative as it is a square root of the average of the sum of square deviations from the mean. Since the square of a number cannot be negative, it directly translates that the standard deviation cannot be negative.

3

A small standard deviation like 3 indicates that the distribution mostly centres about the mean, with very little variation. And the distribution given has a mean (78) that is very far away from at least one of the variables in the distribution. Hence, 3 is too low to pass ad the standard deviation of this distribution described.

0

A standard deviation of 0 indicates that all the variables in the distribution have the same value as the mean. That is, the distribution only contains 1 number, probably multiple times. So, this cannot be the standard deviation for the distribution described.

56

This value represents a value that is too high to express the spread of the distribution described. The mean (78) is very close to the maximum value of the distribution, and far away from the lower value(s), indicating that most of the distribution is in and around the upper values with a few variables closer to the lower limit. A standard deviation as high as 56 for a mean of 78 translates to a distribution with most of variables far from the mean, which isn't the case here.

Moreso, a simple add of the standard deviation to the mean or subtracting the standard deviation from the mean should give at least one of the results with values within the distribution.

(Mean) + (Standard deviation) = 78 + 56 = 134 >> 99 (outside distribution)

(Mean) + (Standard deviation) = 78 - 56 = 22 << 34 (also outside the distribution)

15

This is the most realistic value for the standard deviation as it represents what the distribution described above is.

The mean (78) being close to the maximum value of the distribution, and far away from the lower value(s) indicates that most of the distribution is in and around the upper values with a few variables closer to the lower limit.

So, 15 indicates a perfect blend of small deviations due to the high values close to the mean and the very high deviation from the evidently few lower values.

(Mean) + (Standard deviation) = 78 + 15 = 93 < 99 (within distribution)

(Mean) + (Standard deviation) = 78 - 15 = 63 > 34 (also within the distribution)

Hope this Helps!!!

When The most realistic value for the standard deviation is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

                              Standard deviation The standard deviation of a distribution is a measure of dispersion. also, It is a measure of the spread of the distribution from the mean of the distribution. when It expresses how far most of the distribution is from the mean. Then according to Mathematically, the standard deviation is given as the square root of variance. And also variance is an average of the squared deviations from the mean.

                           mathematically,When Standard deviation is = σ = √[Σ(x - xbar)²/N]After that x = each variable (ranges from 34 to 99)then xbar is = mean = 78Now N is = number of variablesThen we take the given possible values of the standard deviation one at a time, -14 after that The standard deviation cannot be negative as it is a square root of the average of the sum of square deviations from the mean. Since the square of a number cannot be negative, also it directly translates that the standard deviation cannot be negative. After that 3 no when A small standard deviation like 3 indicates that the distribution mostly centers about the mean, with very little variation. And also the distribution given has a mean (78) that is very far away from at least one of the variables in the distribution. Hence proof that is, 3 is too low to pass ad the standard deviation of this distribution described. Then 0 when A standard deviation of 0 indicates that all the variables in the distribution have the same value as the mean. That means is, the distribution only contains 1 number, probably multiple times. So that, this can't be the standard deviation for the distribution described. Now 56 This value represents a value that is too high to express the spread of the distribution described. when The mean (78) is very close to the maximum value of the distribution, and also far away from the lower value(s), indicating that most of the distribution is in and also around the upper values with a few variables closer to the lower limit. when A standard deviation as high as 56 for a mean of 78 translates to a distribution with most of the variables far from the mean, which isn't the case here. More so, when a simple addition of the standard deviation to the mean or subtracting the standard deviation from the mean should have given at least one of the results with values within the distribution.After that (Mean) + (Standard deviation) = 78 + 56 = 134 >> 99 (outside distribution)Then (Mean) + (Standard deviation) = 78 - 56 = 22 << 34 (also outside the distribution) Now last digit 15 This is the most realistic and also a value for the standard deviation as it represents what the distribution described above is.When The mean (78) is close to the maximum value of the distribution, and also far away from the lower value(s) indicates that most of the distribution is in and also that around the upper values with a few variables closer to the lower limit.So that, 15 indicates a perfect blend of small deviations due to the high values close to the mean and also the very high deviation from the evidently few lower values.Then (Mean) + (Standard deviation) = 78 + 15 = 93 < 99 (within distribution) After that (Mean) + (Standard deviation) =Thus, 78 - 15 = 63 > 34 (also within the distribution)
