Answer:
1. Due to the lower standard deviation, it is more likely to obtain a sample of females within $10,000 of the population mean
2. 15.87% probability that a simple random sample of 100 male graduates will provide a sample mean more than $4,000 below the population mean
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal probability distribution
When the distribution is normal, we use 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.
1. In which of the preceding two cases, part a or part b, do we have a higher probability of obtaining a smaple estimate within $10,000 of the population mean? why?
The lower the standard deviation, the less dispersed the values are, meaning it is more likely to find values within a certain threshold of the mean.
So
Due to the lower standard deviation, it is more likely to obtain a sample of females within $10,000 of the population mean.
2. What is the probability that a simple random sample of 100 male graduates will provide a sample mean more than $4,000 below the population mean?
We have that:
[tex]\mu = 168000, \sigma = 40000, n = 100, s = \frac{40000}{\sqrt{100}} = 4000[/tex]
This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 168000 - 4000 = 164000. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{164000 - 168000}{4000}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.1587
15.87% probability that a simple random sample of 100 male graduates will provide a sample mean more than $4,000 below the population mean
(07.01 MC)Of the following sets, which numbers in {0, 1, 2, 3, 4} make the inequality 7x + 3 < 17 true? {0} {0, 1} {0, 1, 2} {2, 3, 4}
Answer:
{0, 1}
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for 'x' in the inequality:
[tex]7x+3<17\\7x+3-3<17-3 \leftarrow \text{Subtraction Property of Equality}\\7x<14\\7x/7<14/7 \leftarrow \text{Division Property of Equality}\\\boxed{x<2}[/tex]
X's value has to be less than two to make the inequality true. So, {0, 1} should be the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:
The local swim team is considering offering a new semi-private class aimed at entry-level swimmers, but needs at minimum number of swimmers to sign up in order to be cost effective. Last year's data showed that during 8 swim sessions the average number of entry-level swimmers attending was 15. Suppose the instructor wants to conduct a hypothesis test. The alternative hypothesis for this hypothesis test is: "the population mean is less than 15". The sample size is 8, LaTeX: \sigmaσ is known, and alpha =.05, the critical value of z is _______. Group of answer choices
Answer:
The signficance level is 0.05 and then based in the alternative hypothesis we can find a critical value who accumulates 0.05 of the area in the normal standard curve in the left and we got:
[tex] z_{\alpha/2}= -1.64[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]n=8[/tex] the same size given
[te]\sigma[/tex] the population deviation is known
For this case we want to test if the population mean is less than 15 and that represent the alternative hypothesis and the complement would be the null hypothesis. So then the system of hypothesis are:
Null hypothesis: [tex]\mu \geq 15[/tex]
Alternative hypothesis: [tex]\mu <15[/tex]
The signficance level is 0.05 and then based in the alternative hypothesis we can find a critical value who accumulates 0.05 of the area in the normal standard curve in the left and we got:
[tex] z_{\alpha/2}= -1.64[/tex]
How would you use a completely randomized experiment in each of the following settings?
Is a placebo being used or not? Be specific and give details.
a. A charitable nonprofit organization wants to test two methods of fund-raising. From a list of 1000 past donors, half will be sent literature about the successful activities of the charity and asked to make another donation. The other 500 donors will be contacted by phone and asked to make another donation. The percentage of people from each group who make a new donation will be compared.
b. A tooth-whitening gel is to be tested for effectiveness. A group of 85 adults have volunteered to participate in the study. Of these. 43 are to be given a gel that contains the tooth-whitening chemicals. The remaining 42 are to be given a similar-looking package of gel that does not contain the tooth-whitening chemicals. A standard method will be used to evaluate the whiteness of teeth for all participants. Then the results for the two groups will be compared. How could this experiment he designed to be double-blind?
c. Consider the experiment described in part (a). Describe how you would use a randomized block experiment with blocks based on age. Use three blocks: donors younger than 30 years old. donors 30 to 59 years old. donors 60 and older.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Two methods of fund raising is being tested here in the first case study. To make a completely randomized experiment. I would use and randomly assign half the population of the 1000 donor sample that will be sent literature about the successful activities of the charity and asked to make another donation to one of the two treatment conditions: which is a sent literature about the successful activities of the charity. While the placebo group would be the other 500 donors contacted by phone and asked to make another donation with no influence whatever from the charity.
b. For the second case study, To make a completely randomized experiment. I would use and randomly assign 43 particupants which are to be given a gel that contains the tooth-whitening chemicals to the treatment condition containing the tooth-whitening chemicals while the placebo group would be the remaining 42 which are to be given a similar-looking package of gel that does not contain the tooth-whitening chemicals.

A and b are similar shapes. B is an enlargement of a with scale factor 1.5 Work out the value of x, h and w
Answer:
x = 54°
h = 7.5cm
w= 6cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Find attached the diagrams as found at Maths made easy.
Similar shapes have same shapes but different sizes.
When two shapes are similar, the ratios of the lengths of their corresponding sides are equal.
B is an enlargement of A with scale factor 1.5. That is, each of the sides of B = 1.5 of each side of A
To determine the value of x, h and w, let's look at the relationship of A and B.
h = 1.5 × 5cm
h = 7.5cm
9cm = 1.5 × w
w = 9cm/1.5
w= 6cm
Since the angles do not change when a shape is enlarged, the value of x = 54°
x = 54°
New York State's "Quick Draw" lottery moves right along. Players choose between one and 10 numbers from the range one to 80; 20 winning numbers are displayed on a screen every four minutes. If you choose just one number, your probability of winning is 20/80, or 0.25. Lester plays one number fourteen times as he sits in a bar. What is the probability that all fourteen bets lose
Answer:
0.0178
Step-by-step explanation:
For computation of probability that all fourteen bets lose first we need to find out the Probability of losing in 1 bet is shown below:-
Probability of losing in 1 bet = 1 - P(winning)
= 1 - 0.25
= 0.75
With the help of probability of losing in 1 bet we can find out the Probability of losing in 8 bets which is here below:-
= Probability of losing in 1 bet ^ Number of loosing bets
= 0.75 ^ 14
= 0.017817948
or
= 0.0178
Therefore for computing the probability that all fourteen bets lose we simply applied the above formula.
The radius r of a sphere is increasing at a rate of 3 inches per minute. (a) Find the rate of change of the volume when r = 9 inches. in.3/min (b) Find the rate of change of the volume when r = 37 inches. in.3/min
Answer:
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}[/tex] = 1017.87 in³/min
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}[/tex] = 17203.35 in³/min
Step-by-step explanation:
given data
radius r of a sphere is increasing at a rate = 3 inches per minute
[tex]\frac{dr}{dt}[/tex] = 3
solution
we know volume of sphere is V = [tex]\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3[/tex]
so [tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^2 \frac{dr}{dt}[/tex]
and when r = 9
so rate of change of the volume will be
rate of change of the volume [tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{4}{3} \pi (9)^2 (3)[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}[/tex] = 1017.87 in³/min
and
when r = 37 inches
so rate of change of the volume will be
rate of change of the volume [tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{4}{3} \pi (37)^2 (3)[/tex]
[tex]\frac{dV}{dt}[/tex] = 17203.35 in³/min

An insurance policy pays a total medical benefit consisting of two parts for each claim. Let X represent the part of the benefit that is paid to the surgeon, and let Y represent the part that is paid to the hospital. The variance of X is 5000, the variance of Y is 10,000, and the variance of the total benefit, X + Y, is 17,000. Due to increasing medical costs, the company that issues the policy decides to increase X by a flat amount of 100 per claim and to increase Y by 10% per claim. Calculate the variance of the total benefit after these revisions have been made
Answer:
= 19300
Step-by-step explanation:
Each claim consists of two parts = X + Y
where
X = the benefit that is paid to the surgeon and
Y = benefit that is paid to the hospital
V(X) = 5000, V(Y) = 10000 and V(X+Y) = 17000
So V(X+Y) = V(X) + V(Y) + 2cov(X,Y)
17000 = 5000 + 10000 +2 cov(X,Y)
17000 -15000 = 2cov(X,Y)
2000 = 2cov(X,Y)
cov(X,Y) = 1000
Now X is increased by flat Rs. 100 per claim and Y by 10% per claim
total benefit = X+100+Y+0.1Y = X+100 + 1.1Y
V(total benefit) = V(X) + 1.1²V(Y) +2(1.1)cov(X,Y) [ V(aX+bY)
= a²V(X) +b²V(Y) +2abcov(X,Y) and V(X+c) = V(X)]
= 5000 + (1.21*10000) + (2.2*1000)
= 5000 + 12100 + 2200
= 19300
Solve the problem. When going more than 38 miles per hour, the gas mileage of a certain car fits the model where x is the speed of the car in miles per hour and y is the miles per gallon of gasoline. Based on this model, at what speed will the car average 15 miles per gallon? (Round to nearest whole number.)
Answer:
73 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
The question seems to be incomplete because the model is missing, I found a similar question with the addition of the model, so if we can solve it (see attached image).
We have that the model would be:
y = 43.81 - 0.395 * x
We need to solve for x, if y = 15
Replacing:
15 = 43.81 - 0.395 * x
Solving for x we have:
0.395 * x = 43.81 - 15
0.395 * x = 28.81
x = 28.81 / 0.395
x = 72.9
We are asked to round to the nearest number therefore x = 73.
The car will average 15 miles per gallon at the speed of 73 miles per hour.
1. If the ratio of the ages of Kissi and Esinam is 3:5 and that of Esinam and Lariba is 3:5 and the sum of the ages of all 3 is 147 years, what is the age difference between oldest the
youngest?
Answer:
Age difference between oldest the youngest = 48 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Ratio of ages of Kissi and Esinam is 3:5, ratios of ages of Esinam and Lariba is 3:5 and sum of the ages of all 3 is 147 years
To find: age difference between oldest the youngest
Solution:
Let age of Lariba be x years
As ratios of ages of Esinam and Lariba is 3:5,
Age of Esinam = [tex]\frac{3}{5}x[/tex] years
As ratio of ages of Kissi and Esinam is 3:5,
Age of Kissi = [tex](\frac{3}{5}) (\frac{3}{5}x)=\frac{9}{25}x[/tex] years
Sum of the ages of all 3 = 147 years
[tex]x+\frac{3}{5}x+\frac{9}{25}x=147\\ \frac{25x+15x+9x}{25}=147\\ x=\frac{147(25)}{49}=75[/tex]
Age of Lariba = x = 75 years
Age of Esinam = [tex]\frac{3}{5}(75)=45\,\,years[/tex]
Age of Kissi = [tex]\frac{9}{25}(75)=27\,\,years[/tex]
So,
Age difference between oldest the youngest = 75 - 27 = 48 years
A rectangular field has an area of 1,764 m(squared). The width of the field is 13 m more than the length. What is the perimeter of the field?
Answer:
170m
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer to the above question is letter d which is 170 m. To get the 170 m, kindly check the below solution:
x^2 + 13x = 1764 so x = -49 and 36, we take 36 as its the positive value. And the other side is 49. Now use 2(l+b) to find perimeter. You get (36+49)*2 = 170

The students in Mrs. Willow's reading class are all reading the same novel independently. Four students create a graph of their reading rates, in words per minute, as shown below. Which student reads the fastest? A. Mason B. RIley C. Sarah D. Charlie
Answer:
Mason reads the fastest
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
try to see how much every person reads every one or two minutes.
Charlie: 350 in two min
Mason :400 in two min
Sarah: 450 in two min (the middle of 300-600 is 450)
so between the three Sarah wins.
now Reilly is a bit more difficult but you can see that she read 4000 in 20 min. so if we divide it by 10 we can see she reads 400 in 2 min. and therefore Sarah os the winner.
what is the answer to -9x = -27
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
9x = 27
Divide both sides by 9,
x = 27/9 which on factorization of the numerator is written as
x = 9 x 3/9 = 3
Calculation 2: Exponent Or Index Method
9x = 27
Since 9 = 3² and 27 = 3³, the given equation takes the form
3² x = 3³
This gives
x = 3³ ÷ 3² = 3³¯² [using the formula a^m ÷ a^n = a^(m-n)]
= 3¹ = 3 (since the first power of a number is the number itself)
9 x 1 = 9
9 x 2 = 16
9 x 3 = 279 x 4 = 36
We stop here because we have already got the answer 27, the right-side of the equality, when 9 is multiplied by 3 . So,
x = 3

Assume that a randomly selected subject is given a bone density test. Those test scores are normally distributed with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1. Find the probability that a given score is less than negative 1.15−1.15 and draw a sketch of the region.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the random variable representing the test scores from the bone density test. Since it is normally distributed and the population mean and population standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,
z = (x - µ)/σ
Where
x = sample mean
µ = population mean
σ = standard deviation
From the information given,
µ = 0
σ = 1
the probability that a given score is less than negative 1.15 is expressed as
P(x < - 1.15)
z = (- 1.15 - 0)/1 = - 1.15
Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.13
P(x < - 1.15) = 0.13
The sketch of the region is shown in the attached photo
The most common form of color blindness is an inability to distinguish red from green. However, this particular form of color blindness is much more common in men than in women (this is because the genes corresponding to the red and green receptors are located on the X-chromosome). Approximately 79% of American men and 0.4% of American women are red-green color-blind.1 Let CBM and CBW denote the events that a man or a woman is color-blind, respectively.
(a) If an Americal male is selected at random, what is the probability that he is red-green color-blind? P(CBM) =
(b) If an American female is selected at random, what is the probability that she is NOT red-green color-blind? P (not CBW) =
(c) If one man and one woman are selected at random, what is the probability that neither are red-green color-blind? P=(neither is color-blind) =
(d) If one man and one woman are selected at random, what is the probability that at least one of them is red-green color-blind? P=(at least one is color-blind)
Answer:
(a) P(CBM) = 0.07
(b) P(not CBW) = 0.996
(c ) P(neither is color-blind) = 0.926
(d) P=(at least one is color-blind) = 0.074
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct data is that Approximately 7% of American men and 0.4% of American women are red-green color-blind.
(a) Probability that he is red-green color-blind:
[tex]P(CBM) = 0.07[/tex]
(b) Probability that she is NOT red-green color-blind:
[tex]P(not\ CBW) =1- P(CBW)\\P(not\ CBW) = 1 -0.004\\P(not\ CBW) =0.996[/tex]
(c) Probability that neither are red-green color-blind
[tex]P(neither) = P(not\ CBW)*P(not\ CBM) \\P(neither) = 0.996 *(1-0.07)\\P(neither)=0.926[/tex]
(d) Probability that at least one of them is red-green color-blind
[tex]P(at\ least\ one) = 1- P(neither) \\P(at\ least\ one) = 1-0.926\\P(at\ least\ one) = 0.074[/tex]

round 0.004198223 to 3 significant figures
I will give brainliest
Answer:
0.00420 is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
The definition of sig figs is each of the digits of a number that are used to express it to the required degree of accuracy, starting from the first nonzero digit.
The rounding number of 0.004198223 to 3 significant figures is 0.0042
Here,
The number is 0.004198223.
We have to find, 0.004198223 to 3 significant figures.
What is Rounding number?
Rounding means making a number simpler but keeping its value close to what it was.
Here,
The number is 0.004198223.
To find 3 significant figures,
We round a number to three significant figures in the same way that we would round to three decimal places.
Then, We count from the first non-zero digit for three digits. We then round the last digit.
Here, the digit is 9 then it will be round.
We get, the number is;
0.0042
