A professor knows that her statistics students' final exam scores have a mean of 79 and a standard deviation of 11.3. In his class, an "A" is any exam score of 90 or higher. This quarter she has 22 students in her class. What is the probability that 6 students or more will score an "A" on the final exam?

prob =

Answers

Answer 1

0.1449 = 14.49% probability that 6 students or more will score an "A" on the final exam.

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

For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they score an A, or they do not. The probability of a student scoring an A is independent of any other student, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Additionally, to find the proportion of students who scored an A, the normal distribution is used.

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

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which  is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of a success.

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

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean and standard deviation , the z-score of a measure X is given by:

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

The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

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

Proportion of students that scored an A:

Scores have a mean of 79 and a standard deviation of 11.3, which means that [tex]\mu = 79, \sigma = 11.3[/tex]

Scores of 90 or higher are graded an A, which means that the proportion is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 90, so:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{90 - 79}{11.3}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.97[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.97[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8340.

1 - 0.8340 = 0.166

The proportion of students that scored an A is 0.166.

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

Probability that 6 students or more will score an "A" on the final exam:

Binomial distribution.

22 students, which means that [tex]n = 22[/tex]

The proportion of students that scored an A is 0.166, which means that [tex]p = 0.166[/tex]

The probability is:

[tex]P(X \geq 6) = 1 - P(X < 6)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X < 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{22,0}.(0.166)^{0}.(0.834)^{22} = 0.0184[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{22,1}.(0.166)^{1}.(0.834)^{21} = 0.0807[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{22,2}.(0.166)^{2}.(0.834)^{20} = 0.1687[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{22,3}.(0.166)^{3}.(0.834)^{19} = 0.2239[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 4) = C_{22,4}.(0.166)^{4}.(0.834)^{18} = 0.2117[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{22,5}.(0.166)^{5}.(0.834)^{17} = 0.1517[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X < 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.0184 + 0.0807 + 0.1687 + 0.2239 + 0.2117 + 0.1517 = 0.8551[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 6) = 1 - P(X < 6) = 1 - 0.8551 = 0.1449[/tex]

Thus

0.1449 = 14.49% probability that 6 students or more will score an "A" on the final exam.

please help me with this question!

Answers

Answer:

12 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of hours it takes Leroy to catch up to Kevin equal x. Since speed multiplied by time is distance, Leroy would have run a total of 6x miles(6*x). Kevin already had a head start of 24 minutes, which is the same as 2/5 of an hour. In 2/5 an hour, Kevin ran 2 miles as 2 is 2/5 *5. For the next x hours his distance would be a total of 5x(5*x). This means, after x hours, Kevins distance is 5x + 2. In this case, catching up to someone is the same as having the same distance value. This means we can set the two expressions equal to each other, and solve:

6x = 5x + 2

x = 2

The time it took Leroy to catch up is 2 hours, but we are looking for the distance, which is represented by 6x. We substitute in 2 to get:

6(2) = 12

This means Leroy had to run 12 miles.

Answers

Answer:

12x - 28° = 116°

7x + 32° = 116°

Step-by-step explanation:

12x - 28° and 7x + 32° are vertical angles. Vertical angles are congruent.

Therefore, to find the measure of each angle, we have to set each equation equal to each other as follows:

12x - 28° = 7x + 32°

Collect like terms

12x - 7x = 28 + 32

5x = 60

Divide both sides by 5

5x/5 = 60/5

x = 12

✔️12x - 28°

Plug in the value of x

12(12) - 28

= 144 - 28

= 116°

✔️7x + 32°

7(12) + 32

= 84 + 32

= 116°

Descarte's rule of signs tells you there are 0 or 2 positive real roots and 1 negative real root. A graph shows you the negative roots is irrational, and the positive roots are complex.

There are formulas for solving equations of this sort. The method you use will depend on whether you need an exact result or just a numerical approximation. Exact results can be obtained in terms of radicals or in terms of trig functions.

The first attachment is from a freely available solver. It gives 4 decimal places, which is sufficient for many purposes.

While the values shown on the graph are to 3 decimal places, the calculator can be used to find them to greater precision.

a) Show that 4x² -6x+9 is positive for all values real numbers x.

Answers

Answer:

(4x² -6x+1.5²) +9-1.5²= (2x-1.5)²+9-2.25= (2x-1.5)²+6.75

(2x-1.5)² is greater or equal to 0 , 6.75>0 so expression is positive for all real numbers x

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Use the formula a²-2ab+b²= (a-b)² (You need to make squared expression because it is always positive)

Consider 4x² as a² and -6x=-2ab

4x²=a² a=2x  ab=3x 2x*b=3x

b=1.5

Express 4x² -6x+9= (4x² -6x+1.5²) +9-1.5²= (2x-1.5)²+9-2.25= (2x-1.5)²+6.75

(2x-1.5)² is greater or equal to 0 , 6.75>0 so expression is positive for all real numbers x

Required:
Let x̄ be the sample average lifetime of 64 Duracell and ȳ be the sample average lifetime of 64 Eveready Energizer batteries. What is the mean value of x̄- ȳ(i.e., where is the distribution of -centered)?

Answers

Answer:

The mean is of -0.4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Mean of the sample of 64 Duracell:

By the Central Limit Theorem, 4.1 hours.

Mean of the sample of 64 Eveready:

By the Central Limit Theorem, 4.5 hours.

Mean of the difference?

Subtraction of normal variables, so we subtract the means.

4.1 - 4.5 = -0.4

The mean is of -0.4 hours.

he ordered 1 steak sandwich, 4 orders of cheese fries, and 1 taco salad, and was
charged $13. How much is 1 steak sandwich? How much is 1 cheese fries? How
much is 1 taco salad?

Answers

Answer:

Steak sandwich = x = 4

Cheese fries = y = 1.75

Taco salad = z = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Steak sandwich = x

Cheese fries = y

Taco salad = z

This week:

x + 2y + 2z = 11.50 - - - - (1)

Last week :

2x + 3y + z = 15.25 - - - (2)

Two weeks ago :

x + 4y + z = 13 - - - - - (3)

Taking (1) and (2)

x + 2y + 2z = 11.50 ___(1)

2x + 3y + z = 15.25 ___(2)

Multiply (1) by 2 and (2) by 1 and subtract

2x + 4y + 4z = 23

2x + 3y + z = 15.25

_______________

y + 3z = 7.75 - - - - (4)

Taking (2) and (3)

2x + 3y + z = 15.25 - - (2)

x + 4y + z = 13 - - - - - (3)

Multiply (2) by 1 and (3) by 2 and subtract

2x + 3y + z = 15.25

2x + 8y + 2z = 26

______________

-5y - z = - 10.75 - - - - - (5)

Lets solve (4) and (5)

y + 3z = 7.75 - - - - (4) - - - multiply by 5

-5y - z = - 10.75 - - - - - (5) - - - multiply by 1

Then add the result :

5y + 15z = 38.75

-5y - z = - 10.75

____________

14z = 28

z = 28 / 14

z = 2

To find y ; put z = 2 in (4)

y + 3z = 7.75

y + 3(2) = 7.75

y + 6 = 7.75

y = 7.75 - 6

y = 1.75

From equation 3 ;

x + 4y + z = 13 - - - - - (3)

x + 4(1.75) + 2 = 13

x + 7 + 2 = 13

x + 9 = 13

x = 13 - 9

x = 4

Hence,

Steak sandwich = x = 4

Cheese fries = y = 1.75

Taco salad = z = 2

The operations manager of a company that manufactures tires wants to determine whether there are any differences in the quality of work among the three daily shifts. She randomly selects 300 tires and carefully inspects them. Each tire is either classified as perfect, satisfactory, or defective, and the shift that produced it is also recorded. The two categorical variables of interest are "shift" and "condition of the tire produced". The p-value of the Chi-Squared test of independence is 0.073. Does the data provide sufficient evidence at the 5% significance level to infer that there are differences in quality among the three shifts?

Answers

The operation manager is responsible to identify whether there are errors in quality of the tires manufactured.

There are three different shifts and each shift has different team of workers who manufacture tires. For this we test hypothesis as;

H0 ; Quality of tire manufactured is independent on shifts

Ha ; Quality of tires manufactured is dependent on shifts.

The p value of chi squared test is greater than the significance level therefore we reject the null hypothesis.

This hypothesis reach to conclusion that quality of tires is dependent on shifts, which means there are differences in quality among the three shifts.
