Answers

Answer:

[tex]20.25 \: m^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for the area of a square.

[tex]A=s^2[/tex]

Where [tex]s=4.5[/tex]

[tex]s^2\\(4.5)^2\\20.25[/tex]

The area of the square is 20.25 square meters as per the concept of the square.

To find the area of a square, we need to square the length of one of its sides. In this case, the side length is given as 4 1/2 meters.

First, we need to convert the mixed number 4 1/2 into an improper fraction. We can rewrite it as 9/2.

Next, we square the side length:

[tex]\frac{9}{2}^2 = \frac{81}{4}[/tex].

To simplify the fraction, we can divide the numerator by the denominator:

81 ÷ 4 = 20 remainders 1.

Therefore, the area of the square is 20 1/4 square meters.

However, we can simplify the mixed number further. Since 4 can be divided by 4 and 1 can be divided by 4, we have:

20 1/4

= 20 + 1/4

= 20 + 1/4

= 20 + 0.25

= 20.25.

Therefore, the area of the square is 20.25 square meters.

An automobile manufacturer is concerned about a fault in the braking mechanism of a particular model. The fault can, on rare occasions, cause a catastrophe at high speed. The distribution of the number of cars per year that will experience the catastrophe is a random variable with variance = 5.
a) What is the probability that at most 3 cars per year will experience a catastrophe?
b) What is the probability that more than 1 car per year will experience a catastrophe?

Answers

Answer:

(a) Probability that at most 3 cars per year will experience a catastrophe is 0.2650.

(b) Probability that more than 1 car per year will experience a catastrophe is 0.9596.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the distribution of the number of cars per year that will experience the catastrophe is a Poisson random variable with variance = 5.

Let X = the number of cars per year that will experience the catastrophe

SO, X ~ Poisson([tex]\lambda = 5[/tex])

The probability distribution for Poisson random variable is given by;

               [tex]P(X=x) = \frac{e^{-\lambda} \times \lambda^{x} }{x!} ; \text{ where} \text{ x} = 0,1,2,3,...[/tex]

where, [tex]\lambda[/tex] = Poisson parameter = 5  {because variance of Poisson distribution is [tex]\lambda[/tex] only}

(a) Probability that at most 3 cars per year will experience a catastrophe is given by = P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 3)

    P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 3)  =  P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3)

                   =  [tex]\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{0} }{0!} +\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{1} }{1!} +\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{2} }{2!} +\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{3} }{3!}[/tex]

                   =  [tex]e^{-5} +(e^{-5} \times 5) +\frac{e^{-5} \times 25 }{2} +\frac{e^{-5} \times 125}{6}[/tex]      

                   =  0.2650

(b) Probability that more than 1 car per year will experience a catastrophe is given by = P(X > 1)

               P(X > 1)  =  1 - P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 1)

                             =  1 - P(X = 0) - P(X = 1)

                             =  [tex]1-\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{0} }{0!} -\frac{e^{-5} \times 5^{1} }{1!}[/tex]

The mean annual salary for intermediate level executives is about $74000 per year with a standard deviation of $2500. A random sample of 36 intermediate level executives is selected. What is the probability that the mean annual salary of the sample is between $71000 and $73500?

Answers

Answer:

11.51% probability that the mean annual salary of the sample is between $71000 and $73500

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes 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.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 74000, \sigma = 2500, n = 36, s = \frac{2500}{\sqrt{36}} = 416.67[/tex]

What is the probability that the mean annual salary of the sample is between $71000 and $73500?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 73500 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 71000. So

X = 73500

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{73500 - 74000}{416.67}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.2[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.2[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.1151

X = 71000

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

[tex]Z = \frac{71000 - 74000}{416.67}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -7.2[/tex]

[tex]Z = -7.2[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.

0.1151 - 0 = 0.1151

11.51% probability that the mean annual salary of the sample is between $71000 and $73500

A researcher reports that the farther college students are from their parents, the more often they communicate with their parents (either by phone or by e-mail). Is this an example of a positive correlation or a negative correlation?

Answers

Answer:

Positive correlation

Step-by-step explanation:

A positive correlation exists between two variables, when both variables tend to move along the same direction. In order words, when one particular variable increases, there is also an increase in the other variable.

The case stated above is an example of positive correlation, because, the farther the students are from their parents, the more often they communicate with them. As distance increases, so does the number of, perhaps, phone calls increases as well.

Answer:

Positive correlation

Step-by-step explanation:

A positive correlation occurs whereby in a relationship between two variables, both variable move in the same direction meaning as one increases, the other also increases.

In this study, an increase in distance enforces an increase in communication with the parents.

Which number type is more appropriate for the domain of HHH?

Answers

Answer:

The domain of the function H(t), is [-5, 30].

The range of the function H(t), is [(10% + average), (average - 20%)]

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain of a function is the complete set of possible values of the independent variable.

For this question, the function is H(t), with the temperature, t, serving as the independent variables and H(t) the evidently dependent variable.

The domain of a function refers to all the possible independent variable values that will give corresponding real dependent variable values.

For this question, Alice's model has the probability for the occurrence of heart disease (in percents relative to the global average) at an area, H(t) varying with the temperature of that area in degree Celsius.

At a temperature of -5°C (the lowest temperature in the model), the probability is 10% above the average.

Then, the probability decreases with increase in temperature, taking a value 20% lower than the average when the temperature is at its highest of 30°C in the model.

So, temperature ranges from -5°C to 30°C and the probability for the occurrence of heart disease ranges from 10% above the average to 20% below the average.

The domain of the function H(t), from the definition given above would therefore be [-5, 30]

And the range of the function H(t), is [(10% + average), (average - 20%)]

Hope this Helps!!!

The Real Number type is more appropriate fro the domain of H(t).

The domain of H(t) is given as  [tex]-5 \leq t \leq 30[/tex]

Given that:

The lowest temperature included in the model is -5° C

The highest temperature included in the model is 30° C

The domain of H includes the values of the temperature. Since the temperature can be non integer too, sometimes rational too, thus we use Real Number type for the domain of H(t).

The domain of H(t) will be given by the following interval on real number line:

[tex]\begin{aligned} Domain(H(t)) = [-5, 30]\\\end{aligned}[/tex]

or [tex]-5 \leq t \leq 30[/tex].

Hence, the Real Number type is more appropriate fro the domain of H(t).

benefit was $231 with a sample standard deviation of $80. What is the p-value?
c. At αα = .05, what is your conclusion?
d. Repeat the preceding hypothesis test using the critical value approach.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We would set up the hypothesis test. This is a test of a single population mean since we are dealing with mean

For the null hypothesis,

H0: µ = 238

For the alternative hypothesis,

H1: µ < 238

This is a left tailed test

b) Since the population standard deviation is not given, the distribution is a student's t.

Since n = 100

Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 100 - 1 = 99

t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)

Where

x = sample mean = 231

µ = population mean = 238

s = samples standard deviation = 80

t = (231 - 238)/(80/√100) = - 0.88

We would determine the p value using the t test calculator. It becomes

p = 0.19

c) Since alpha, 0.05 < than the p value, 0.19, then we would fail to reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, At a 5% level of significance, the sample data showed insignificant evidence that the mean weekly unemployment insurance benefit in Virginia was below the national average.

d) Since α = 0.05, the critical value is determined from the t distribution table. Recall that this is a left tailed test. Therefore, we would find the critical value corresponding to 1 - α and reject the null hypothesis if the test statistic is less than the negative of the table value.

1 - α = 1 - 0.05 = 0.95

The negative critical value is - 1.66

Since - 0.88 is greater than - 1.66, then we would fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Answers

Answer:

Center line = 46

UCL = 46.84852

LCL = 45.15148

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Standard deviation = 0.8

Mean, u = 46

Sample size, n= 8

First calculate the estimated standard deviation:

[tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{0.8}{\sqrt{8}} = 0.282843[/tex]

a) The center line, X', would be the average across all components. Here the average across all 960 bottles is 46

Therefore,

[tex] X' = 46 [/tex]

b) The upper control limit, UCL:

UCL = u + 3s

= 46 + 3(0.28284)

= 46 + 0.84852

= 46.84852

c) The upper control limit, LCL:

LCL = u + 3s

= 46 - 3(0.28284)

Hypothetical Situation: A scientist notices that her bees may be avoiding a specific pollen from flower "X" despite its abundance in the area. To test to see if this behavior is reproducible and not anecdotal, she decides to provide a choice test to her bees. She does this by putting the bees in a small cage with two dishes. One with pollen from flower "X" the other is pollen from a flower that she knows her bees collect, flower "Y." She counts how many times the bees chooses Flower "X" vs Flower "Y" and collects this data.
What is experimental group?

Answers

Answer:

The experimental group in this case are the group of bees that are put in the small cage.

Step-by-step explanation:

The experimental group is the group of subjects that participate in the test. They are usually assigned to the treatments in study. In some cases there is a control group, with no assigned treatment.

In this case, the bees that she put in the cage, and they are not assigned to a particular treatment. It can be considered a control group.

16. Model with Math What must be the sum of


the two remaining numbers, x and y? Write an


equation to show how to find this sum.

Answers

Answer:

The sum of the two remaining numbers, x and y = 60

Question:

The question isn't clear enough as some information have been omitted. Let's consider the following:

Model with Math. The average of six numbers is 18. If the average of four numbers is 12. What must be the sum of the two remaining numbers, x and y?

Write an equation to show how to find this sum.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematical models are applied to represent things in the real world in order to solve problems.

The formula we would use to solve this problem is an example of a mathematical model.

Types of mathematical model we can use include equations and graphs.

Using equations:

Average of six numbers = 18

Average of four of the numbers = 12

Total sum of the four numbers = 4×12 = 48

the two unknown numbers are x and y

Average of six numbers = (Sum of all 6 numbers)/6

=(Total sum of four numbers + x + y)/6

(48 + x + y)/6 = 18

The equation that shows how to find the sum:

(1/6)(48 + x + y) = 18

48 + x + y = 18×6

48 + x + y = 108

x + y = 108-48

x+y = 60

The sum of the two remaining numbers, x and y = 60
