e of Scores, a publication of the Educational Testing Service, the scores on the verbal portion of the GRE have mean 150 points and standard deviation 8.75 points. Assuming that these scores are (approximately) normally distributed, a. obtain and interpret the quartiles. b. find and interpret the 99th percentile.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) Q1= 144.10

Median = 150

Q3=155.90

b) The 99 percentile would be:[tex]a=150 +2.33*8.75=170.39[/tex]

And represent a value who accumulate 99% of the values below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the scores of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

[tex]X \sim N(150,8.75)[/tex]  

Where [tex]\mu=150[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=8.75[/tex]

Part a

Lets begin with the first quartile:

[tex]P(X>a)=0.75[/tex]   (a)

[tex]P(X<a)=0.25[/tex]   (b)

We can find the quantile in the normal standard distribution and we got z=-0.674.

And we can apply the z score formula and we got:

[tex]z=-0.674<\frac{a-150}{8.75}[/tex]

And if we solve for a we got

[tex]a=150 -0.674*8.75=144.10[/tex]

The median for this case is the mean [tex]Median =150[/tex]

For the third quartile we find the quantile who accumulate 0.75 of the area below and we got z=0.674 and we got:

[tex]a=150 +0.674*8.75=155.90[/tex]

Part b

We can find the quantile in the normal standard distribution who accumulate 0.99 of the area below and we got z=2.33.

And we can apply the z score formula and we got:

[tex]z=2.33<\frac{a-150}{8.75}[/tex]

And if we solve for a we got

[tex]a=150 +2.33*8.75=170.39[/tex]

And represent a value who accumulate 99% of the values below

Answers

Answer:

The critical values of F at 95% confidence are 0.359 and 2.788.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a sample of 21 days of sales at Store A and a sample of 16 days of sales at Store B indicated the following:

Store A                     Store B    

nA = 21                      nB = 16

SA = 28.284              SB = 20

And we are interested in determining whether or not the variances of the sales at two small grocery stores are equal.

AS we know that when we are interested in variances of two samples, we use F-test for doing hypothesis testing.

The test statistics for F-test is =  [tex]\frac{S_A^{2} }{S_B^{2} } \times \frac{\sigma_B^{2} }{\sigma_A^{2} }[/tex]  ~ [tex]F__n_A_-_1,_ n_B_-_1[/tex]

where, [tex]S_A[/tex] and [tex]S_B[/tex] are sample standard deviations.

Now, the critical values of F at 2.5% (because two-tailed test) level of significance from F-table at degrees of freedom (21 - 1, 16 - 1) = (20, 15) are given as;

2.788 for right-part and 0.359 for the left-part.

What are the next two numbers in the pattern of numbers;
45, 15, 44, 17, 40, 20, 31, 25, …

Answers

Answer:

Next two numbers are 15 and 32 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given pattern is  

45, 15, 44, 17, 40, 20, 31, 25, …

Here, we have two patterns.

Odd places : 45, 44, 40, 31,...

Even places : 15, 17, 20, 25,...

In series of odd places, we need to subtract square of integers.

[tex]45-(1)^2=45-1=44[/tex]

[tex]44-(2)^2=44-4=40[/tex]

[tex]40-(3)^2=40-9=31[/tex]

So, 9th term of given pattern is  

[tex]31-(4)^2=31-16=15[/tex]

In series of even places, we need to add prime numbers.

[tex]15-2=17[/tex]

[tex]17+3=20[/tex]

[tex]20+5=25[/tex]

So, 10th term of given pattern is  

[tex]25+7=32[/tex]

Therefore, the next two numbers in the pattern of numbers are 15 and 32 respectively.

The vertical height of the point that is 1/3 the slant height from the base is 1/3 of the height of the tetrahedron.

x = -8 or x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor ax² + bx + c, use AC method.

a times c is 1 × -24 = -24.

Factors of ac (-24) that add up to b (5) are 8 and -3.

Divide by a and reduce: 8/1 and -3/1.

Therefore, the factors are x + 8 and x − 3.

Here's a graph of a linear function. Write the
equation that describes that function.
Express it in slope-intercept form.
Enter the correct answer.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is y = mx + b

m being the slope, rise over run. And b being the y-intercept. Right off the bat we can visually see the y-intercept is -4.

To find slope, we need to take two sets of coords and apply the slope fomula. The slope fomula is change in y divided by the change in x. The function itself is straight, so that means the slope will be the exact same no matter which points you choose.

(4, -1) and (8, 2) are coords on the line. Do 2 - (-1) to get 3. then do 8 - 4 to get 4. Finally, we just gotta do 3/4 which is simply [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex].

We have the slope of 3/4 and we have the y-intercept of -4. Just plug it in the standard formula of y = mx + b to get:

[tex]y=\frac{3}{4} x-4[/tex]

Hello I need some help on setting up 2 equations of this problem. The answers are cheeseburger costs $1.55 and the milkshake $0.85

Four cheeseburgers and two chocolate milkshakes cost a total of $ 7.90. Two
Shakes cost 15 cents more than a hamburger with
cheese so What is the price of a cheeseburger?
And the price of a shake?

Answers

Answer:

4c+ 2m = 7.90

2m -.15 = c

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c = cheese burger

m = milkshake

4c+ 2m = 7.90

2m -.15 = c

Substitute into the first equation

4( 2m -.15) +2m = 7.90

Distribute

8m -.6 +2m = 7.90

Combine like terms

10m - .6 = 7.90

Add .6 to each side

10m = 7.90+.6

10m = 8.50

Divide by m

10m = 8.50/10

m = .85

Now find c

2m -.15 = c

2(.85) - .15=c

1.70-.15 = c

1.55 =c

Find the value of x from this adjoining figure

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x=15^\circ[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the attached figure for labeling of given diagram:

We are given the following angles:

[tex]\angle AOC = 3x^\circ\\\angle BOD = 2x^\circ\\\angle EOF = 7x^\circ[/tex]

Angles opposite to each other when they are formed by crossing of two lines are known as vertically opposite angles. And vertically opposite angles are always equal to each other.

Using property of vertically opposite angles:

[tex]\angle EOF = \angle AOB = 7x^\circ[/tex]

Line CD is a straight line, so [tex]\angle COD = 180^\circ[/tex]

Also,

[tex]\angle COD = \angle COA+\angle AOB+\angle BOD = 180^\circ\\\Rightarrow 3x + 7x + 2x=180^\circ\\\Rightarrow 12x =180^\circ\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{180}{12}\\\Rightarrow x = 15^\circ[/tex]

Hence, answer is [tex]x = 15^\circ[/tex].

Answers

Answer:

80% confidence interval of the true average number of hours of TV watched per week is [8.28 hours, 11.02 hours].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a college student is interested in investigating the TV-watching habits of her classmates and surveys 20 people on the number of hours they watch per week. The results are provided below;

Hours of TV per week (X): 6, 14, 13, 6, 16, 10, 19, 4, 5, 5, 18, 8, 7, 14, 8, 8, 9, 12, 6, 5.

Firstly, the Pivotal quantity for 80% confidence interval for the true average is given by;

                                P.Q. =  [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]  ~ [tex]t_n_-_1[/tex]

where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean number of hours of TV watched per week = [tex]\frac{\sum X}{n}[/tex] = 9.65

            s = sample standard deviation = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{\sum (X -\bar X)^{2} }{n-1} }[/tex]  = 4.61

            n = sample of people = 20

           [tex]\mu[/tex] = true average number of hours of TV watched per week

Here for constructing 80% confidence interval we have used One-sample t-test statistics as we don't know about population standard deviation.

So, 80% confidence interval for the true average, [tex]\mu[/tex] is ;

P(-1.33 < [tex]t_1_9[/tex] < 1.33) = 0.80  {As the critical value of t at 19 degrees of

                                               freedom are -1.33 & 1.33 with P = 10%}  

P(-1.33 < [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < 1.33) = 0.80

P( [tex]-1.33 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]{\bar X-\mu}[/tex] < [tex]1.33 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.80

P( [tex]\bar X-1.33 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]\mu[/tex] < [tex]\bar X+1.33 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.80

80% confidence interval for [tex]\mu[/tex] = [ [tex]\bar X-1.33 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] , [tex]\bar X+1.33 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ]

                                         = [ [tex]9.65-1.33 \times {\frac{4.61}{\sqrt{20} } }[/tex] , [tex]9.65+1.33 \times {\frac{4.61}{\sqrt{20} } }[/tex] ]

                                         = [8.28 hours, 11.02 hours]

Therefore, 80% confidence interval of the true average number of hours of TV watched per week is [8.28 hours, 11.02 hours].
