Alligators captured in Florida are found to have a mean length of 2 meters and a standard deviation of 0.35 meters. The lengths of alligators are believed to be approximately normally distributed. What percent of alligators have lengths greater than 2.2 meters?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

28.43% of alligators have lengths greater than 2.2 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 2, \sigma = 0.35[/tex]

What percent of alligators have lengths greater than 2.2 meters?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 2.2. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{2.2 - 2}{0.35}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.57[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.57[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.7157

1 - 0.7157 = 0.2843

28.43% of alligators have lengths greater than 2.2 meters

Two forces of magnitudes 16 and 20 pounds are acting on an object. The bearings of the forces are N75E and S20E (that is, 75∘ east of north and 20∘ east of south), respectively. How many degrees east of south is the resultant force? (Round to two decimal places and do not enter the ∘ symbol.)

Answers

Answer:

20.58

Step-by-step explanation:

Force A = 16 pounds

direction = N75E = 75° in the first quadrant

Force B = 20 pounds

direction = S20E = 180° - 20° = 160° in the fourth quadrants

we resolve the forces into their x and y resultant forces.

For the y axis forces,

-(16 x sin 75°) + (20 x sin 160°) = Fy

-15.45 + 6.84 = Fy

Fy = -8.61 N

For the x axis forces'

(16 x cos 75°) + (20 x cos 160°) = Fx

-4.14 - 18.79 = Fx

Fx = -22.93 N

Resultant force = [tex]\sqrt{(Fx)^{2} + (Fy)^{2} }[/tex] =  [tex]\sqrt{(-8.61)^{2} + (-22.93)^{2} }[/tex]

Resultant force = 24.49 N

angle made by the resultant force is,

∅ = [tex]tan^{-1}[/tex] [tex]\frac{Fy}{Fx}}[/tex]

∅  =  [tex]tan^{-1}[/tex] [tex]\frac{-8.61}{-22.93}}[/tex]

∅ =  [tex]tan^{-1}[/tex] 0.3755

∅ = 20.58

Martin wants to use coordinate geometry to prove that the opposite sides of
a rectangle are congruent. He places parallelogram ABCD in the coordinate
plane so that A is (0,0), B is (a,0), Cis (a, b), and Dis (0, b).
What formula can he use to determine the distance from point D to point A?

Answers

Answer:

Option (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinates of the vertices of the rectangle were A(0, 0), B(a, 0), C(a, b) and D(0, b)

Formula to determine the distance between two points with the vertices (x, y) and (x', y') is,

d = [tex]\sqrt{(x-x')^2+(y-y')^2}[/tex]

For the length of AD,

AD = [tex]\sqrt{(0-0)^2+(b-0)^2}[/tex]

     = [tex]\sqrt{b^2}[/tex]

     = b

Therefore, Option (B) will be the answer.

Answers

Answer:

Taste

Step-by-step explanation:

In the challenge, participants were asked to taste cola from both Coke and Pepsi. They were to give a report on which of the two drinks tasted better.

The taste reported by the participants is dependent on the type of cola taken (either Coke or Pepsi).

Therefore, the taste is the dependent variable while the types of cola are the independent variables.

A county real estate appraiser wants to develop a statistical model to predict the appraised value of houses in a section of the county called East Meadow. One of the many variables thought to be an important predictor of appraised value is the total number of rooms in the house. Consequently the appraiser decided to fit the simple linear regression model, ^y=β0+β1x , where y= the appraised value of the house (in thousands of dollars) and x= the number of rooms. Using data collected for a sample of n = 74 houses in East Meadow, the following results were obtained:

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The statistical model predicts the appraised value of houses in a section of the county East Meadow (Y) in relationship with the number of rooms of the house (X)

For a sample of n=64 houses the simple linear regression was estimated:

^Y= 74.80 + 24.93X

Range of X: 5 - 11

Range of Y: 160 - 300 ($ thousands of dollars)

Interpretation of the estimates of the y-intercept and the slope

y-intercept:

74.80 thousand dollars is the estimated average value of a house in a section of the county East Meadow when the house has zero rooms.

Slope:

24.93 [tex]\frac{thousand dollars}{rooms}[/tex] is the modification of the estimated average value of a house in a section of the county East Meadow when the number of rooms increases on one.

A baseball player comes up to bat 3 times during a league game. He either gets a hit or gets an out. What is the probability that the player gets 3 hits in the three bats ?

Answers

Answer:

Since there are 2 possibilities for each bat (hit or out), the amount of total possibilities is 2 * 2 * 2 = 8. There is only one possibility out of those eight that gives us three hits, therefore the probability is 1 / 8 or 0.125.

The histogram to the right represents the weights​ (in pounds) of members of a certain​ high-school debate team. What is the class​ width? What are the approximate lower and upper class limits of the first​ class? The class width is_______.

Answers

Answer:

Class width = 20

Approximate lower class limit of the first class = 110

Approximate Upper class limit of the first class = 119

Step-by-step Explanation:

The class width of the histogram attached below can be gotten by finding the difference between successive lower class limits.

Thus, class width = 130 - 110 = 20

The approximate lower class limit of the first class is the lowest score we have in the first class = 110

The approximate upper class limit of the first class is the closest highest score that fall within the first class and is below the lower limit of the second class. Thus approximate upper class limit of the first class = 129

Find the function y1 of t which is the solution of 121y′′+110y′−24y=0 with initial conditions y1(0)=1,y′1(0)=0. y1= Note: y1 is a linear combination of the two independent solutions of this differential equation that you found first. You are not being asked for just one of these. You will need to determine the values of the two constant parameters c1 and c2. Similarly for finding y2 below. Find the function y2 of t which is the solution of 121y′′+110y′−24y=0 with initial conditions y2(0)=0,y′2(0)=1. y2= Find the Wronskian W(t)=W(y1,y2). W(t)= Remark: You can find W by direct computation and use Abel's theorem as a check. You should find that W is not zero and so y1 and y2 form a fundamental set of solutions of 121y′′+110y′−24y=0.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The original equation is [tex]121y''+110y'-24y=0[/tex]. We propose that the solution of this equations is of the form [tex] y = Ae^{rt}[/tex]. Then, by replacing the derivatives we get the following

[tex]121r^2Ae^{rt}+110rAe^{rt}-24Ae^{rt}=0= Ae^{rt}(121r^2+110r-24)[/tex]

Since we want a non trival solution, it must happen that A is different from zero. Also, the exponential function is always positive, then it must happen that

[tex]121r^2+110r-24=0[/tex]

Recall that the roots of a polynomial of the form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex] are given by the formula

[tex] x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

In our case a = 121, b = 110 and c = -24. Using the formula we get the solutions

[tex]r_1 = -\frac{12}{11}[/tex]

[tex]r_2 = \frac{2}{11}[/tex]

So, in this case, the general solution is [tex]y = c_1 e^{\frac{-12t}{11}} + c_2 e^{\frac{2t}{11}}[/tex]

a) In the first case, we are given that y(0) = 1 and y'(0) = 0. By differentiating the general solution and replacing t by 0 we get the equations

[tex]c_1 + c_2 = 1[/tex]

[tex]c_1\frac{-12}{11} + c_2\frac{2}{11} = 0[/tex](or equivalently [tex]c_2 = 6c_1[/tex]

By replacing the second equation in the first one, we get [tex]7c_1 = 1 [/tex] which implies that [tex] c_1 = \frac{1}{7}, c_2 = \frac{6}{7}[/tex].

So [tex]y_1 = \frac{1}{7}e^{\frac{-12t}{11}} + \frac{6}{7}e^{\frac{2t}{11}}[/tex]

b) By using y(0) =0 and y'(0)=1 we get the equations

[tex] c_1+c_2 =0[/tex]

[tex]c_1\frac{-12}{11} + c_2\frac{2}{11} = 1[/tex](or equivalently [tex]-12c_1+2c_2 = 11[/tex]

By solving this system, the solution is [tex]c_1 = \frac{-11}{14}, c_2 = \frac{11}{14}[/tex]

Then [tex]y_2 = \frac{-11}{14}e^{\frac{-12t}{11}} + \frac{11}{14} e^{\frac{2t}{11}}[/tex]

c)

The Wronskian of the solutions is calculated as the determinant of the following matrix

[tex]\left| \begin{matrix}y_1 & y_2 \\ y_1' & y_2'\end{matrix}\right|= W(t) = y_1\cdot y_2'-y_1'y_2[/tex]

By plugging the values of [tex]y_1[/tex] and

We can check this by using Abel's theorem. Given a second degree differential equation of the form y''+p(x)y'+q(x)y the wronskian is given by

[tex]e^{\int -p(x) dx}[/tex]

In this case, by dividing the equation by 121 we get that p(x) = 10/11. So the wronskian is

[tex]e^{\int -\frac{10}{11} dx} = e^{\frac{-10x}{11}}[/tex]

Note that this function is always positive, and thus, never zero. So [tex]y_1, y_2[/tex] is a fundamental set of solutions.

A company makes candles in the shape of a right cone. The lateral surface of each candle is covered with paper for shipping and each candle also has a plastic circular base. Find the amount of paper needed to cover the lateral surface of each candle. Then find the total amount of paper and plastic needed for the candle. Round to the nearest tenth. Use 3.14 for π.

Answers

Answer:

If we have a cone-shape candle with r=2 cm and h=3 cm, then the amount of paper needed is 18.84 cm^2 and the amount of plastic needed is 12.56 cm^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete: no numerical values for the dimensions of the cone are given.

A right cone is defined by the radius r of the base and the height h.

The base area is the area of a circle with radius r:

[tex]A_b=\pi r^2[/tex]

The lateral area is calculated as:

[tex]A_l=\pi \cdot r\cdot l[/tex]

As the values for r and h are not given, we will use an example with r=2 and h=3.

Then, the amount of paper needed is:

[tex]A_l=\pi \cdot r\cdot l=3.14\cdot (2\,cm)\cdot (3\, cm)=18.84\,cm^2[/tex]

The amount of plastic needed is:

[tex]A_b=\pi r^2=3.14\cdot (2\,cm)^2=3.14\cdot 4\,cm^2=12.56\,cm^2[/tex]
