Answer:
0.2946
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of tosses, n = 200
P(obtaining a 5), p = 1/6
q = 1 - p = 5/6
Normal approximation for binomial distribution
P(X < A) = P(Z < (A - mean)/standard deviation)
Mean = np
= 200 x 1/6
= 33.33
Standard deviation = √npq
= √(200(1/6)(5/6) )
= 5.27
P(at most 30 fives) = P(X ≤ 30)
= P(Z < (30.5 - 33.33)/5.27) (continuity correction of 0.5 is added to 30)
= P(Z < -0.54)
= 0.2946

New York City is known for it's tourist attractions and high priced real estate. The mean hotel room rate is $202 per night. Assume that the room rates are normally distributed with a standard deviation of $70.What is the probability that a hotel room costs between $210 and $290?
Answer:
[tex]P(210<X<290)=P(\frac{210-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{290-\mu}{\sigma})=P(\frac{210-202}{70}<Z<\frac{290-202}{70})=P(0.114<z<1.26)[/tex]
And we can find this probability with this difference
[tex]P(0.114<z<1.26)=P(z<1.26)-P(z<0.114)[/tex]
And we can find the difference with the normal standard distirbution or excel:
[tex]P(0.114<z<1.26)=P(z<1.26)-P(z<0.114)=0.896-0.545=0.351[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X the random variable that represent the hotel room cost of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:
[tex]X \sim N(202,70)[/tex]
Where [tex]\mu=202[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=70[/tex]
We are interested on this probability
[tex]P(210<X<290)[/tex]
The z score formula is given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
Using the formula we got:
[tex]P(210<X<290)=P(\frac{210-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{290-\mu}{\sigma})=P(\frac{210-202}{70}<Z<\frac{290-202}{70})=P(0.114<z<1.26)[/tex]
And we can find this probability with this difference
[tex]P(0.114<z<1.26)=P(z<1.26)-P(z<0.114)[/tex]
And we can find the difference with the normal standard distirbution or excel:
[tex]P(0.114<z<1.26)=P(z<1.26)-P(z<0.114)=0.896-0.545=0.351[/tex]
Consider the following set of sample data.
18 26 30 42 50 52 52 76 78 84
For the given data, the mean is_______, the median is________, and the mode is_______.
Suppose the value 76 in the data is mistakenly recorded as 55 instead of 76. For the sample with this error, the mean is_________, the median is______, and the mode is_______. The mean_____, the median_______, and the mode______. Suppose the value 76 in the original sample is inadvertently removed from the sample. For the sample with this value removed, the mean is_______, the median is_______, and the mode is________. The mean_________, the median_______, and the mode________.
Answer:
For the given data, the mean is 50.8, the median is 51, and the mode is 52.
For the sample with this error, the mean is 48.7, the median is 51, and the mode is 52.
For the sample with this value removed, the mean is 43.2, the median is 50, and the mode is 52.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following set of sample data below;
18, 26, 30, 42, 50, 52, 52, 76, 78, 84.
The formula for calculating mean is given by;
Mean = [tex]\frac{\text{Sum of all data values}}{\text{Total number of observations}}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{18+ 26+ 30+ 42+ 50+ 52+ 52+ 76+ 78+ 84}{10}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{508}{10}[/tex] = 50.8
For calculating median, we have to observe that the number of observations (n) in our data is even or odd, i.e;
If n is odd, then the formula for calculating median is given by;Median = [tex](\frac{n+1}{2})^{th} \text{ obs.}[/tex]
If n is even, then the formula for calculating median is given by;Median = [tex]\frac{(\frac{n}{2})^{th}\text{ obs.} +(\frac{n}{2}+1)^{th}\text{ obs.} }{2}[/tex]
Now, here in our data the number of observations is even, i.e. n = 10.
So, Median = [tex]\frac{(\frac{n}{2})^{th}\text{ obs.} +(\frac{n}{2}+1)^{th}\text{ obs.} }{2}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{(\frac{10}{2})^{th}\text{ obs.} +(\frac{10}{2}+1)^{th}\text{ obs.} }{2}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{5^{th}\text{ obs.} +6^{th}\text{ obs.} }{2}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{50+52 }{2}[/tex] = 51
A Mode is a value that appears the maximum number of times in our data.
In our data, the value 52 is appera]ing maximum number of times, i.e. 2 times which means that mode of our data is 52.
Now, suppose the value 76 in the data is mistakenly recorded as 55 instead of 76. For the sample with this error,
Mean will be changed as value has been changed.New Mean = [tex]\frac{18+ 26+ 30+ 42+ 50+ 52+ 52+ 55+ 78+ 84}{10}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{487}{10}[/tex] = 48.7
There will be no change in median because there is no change in the 5th and 6th observation of the data.Also, there will be no change in mode as stiil 52 appears maximum number of times in our data.Now, suppose the value 76 in the original sample is inadvertently removed from the sample. For the sample with this value removed,
Mean will be changed as value has been removed from data.New Mean = [tex]\frac{18+ 26+ 30+ 42+ 50+ 52+ 52+ 78+ 84}{9}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{432}{10}[/tex] = 43.2
Median will also get changed because the number of observation is now odd, i.e. n = 9So, Median = [tex](\frac{n+1}{2})^{th} \text{ obs.}[/tex]
= [tex](\frac{9+1}{2})^{th} \text{ obs.}[/tex]
= [tex]5^{th} \text{ obs.}[/tex] = 50
Also, there will be no change in mode as stiil 52 appears maximum number of times in our data.4 ounces for every 16 ounces. Rate or ratio and in simplest form
4 for 16 would be written as 4/16.
Dividing both numbers by 4 it is simplified to 1/4
4 ounces for every 16 ounces can be written as:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{4}{16} =\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
As a ratio, it can be expressed as:
[tex]1:4[/tex]
Find the population mean or sample mean as indicated.
Sample: 17, 11, 8, 12, 22
Answer:
mean:12
Step-by-step explanation:
The population mean or sample mean as indicated in the given samples is 14
What is mean?A mean in math is the average of a data set, found by adding all numbers together and then dividing the sum of the numbers by the number of numbers.
Mathematically,
Mean = Sum of the observations/number of observations
Now the given sample is,
17, 11, 8, 12, 22
So, Number of sample = 5
Thus, Mean = Sum of the sample /number of sample
Mean = (17 + 11 + 8 + 12 + 22) / 5
⇒ Mean = 70/5
⇒ Mean = 14
Thus, the population mean or sample mean as indicated in the given samples is 14

Present value is 7.21
[tex]7.21=\frac{1}{1-u^2} \\\\1-\frac{1}{7.21} =u^2\\\\\frac{6.21}{7.21} =(1+i)^{-2}\\\\(1+i)^2=\frac{7.21}{6.21} \\\\(i+1)=\sqrt{\frac{7.21}{6.21} }\\\\ i=\sqrt{\frac{7.21}{6.21} } -1\\\\=0.77511297[/tex]

Suppose that y = 5 x plus 4 and it is required that y be within 0.005 units of 8. For what values of x will this be true?
Answer:
so we have an inequality for y -
7.995<y<8.005
Then now we need in inequality for x
(y-4)/5 = x
so that means that so if we have (7.995-4)/5 we get 3.995/5 = 7.99
so we have our first 7.99<x<b
Now we solve for b
So that means that 5.005/5 = 1.001
since we are changing it we switch our signs
from 7.99<x<1.001
we do 7.99>x>1.001
therefore
1.001<x<7.99

101+11=112
What’s the correct answer for this?
Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since opposite angles of a quadrilateral inscribes in a circle add up to 180°
So,
<P + <N = 180°
2x+2x-12 = 180°
4x = 180+12
4x = 192
Dividing both sides by 4
x = 48
Now
<P = 2(48)
<P = 96
Now
<N = 2(48)-12
<N = 96-12
<N = 84

The percent, X , of shrinkage o n drying for a certain type of plastic clay has an average shrinkage percentage :, where parameter : is unknown. A random sample of 45 specimens from this clay showed an average shrinking percentage of 18.4 and a standard deviation of 2.2.
Required:
a. Estimate at 5% level of significance whether the true average shrinkage percentage U: is greater than 17.5 and write your conclusion.
b. Report the p-value.
Answer:
a) [tex]t=\frac{18.4-17.5}{\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{45}}}=2.744[/tex]
The degrees of freedom are given by:
[tex]df=n-1=45-1=44[/tex]
The critical value for this case is [tex]t_{\alpha}=1.68[/tex] since the calculated value is higher than the critical we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly higher than 18.4
b) [tex]p_v =P(t_{(44)}>2.744)=0.0044[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Information given
[tex]\bar X=18.4[/tex] represent the sample mean
[tex]s=2.2[/tex] represent the sample standard deviation
[tex]n=45[/tex] sample size
[tex]\mu_o =17.5[/tex] represent the value to verify
[tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] represent the significance level
t would represent the statistic
[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value
Part a
We want to test if the true mean is higher than 17.5, the system of hypothesis would be:
Null hypothesis:[tex]\mu \leq 17.5[/tex]
Alternative hypothesis:[tex]\mu > 17.5[/tex]
The statistic is given by:
[tex]t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex] (1)
And replacing we got:
[tex]t=\frac{18.4-17.5}{\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{45}}}=2.744[/tex]
The degrees of freedom are given by:
[tex]df=n-1=45-1=44[/tex]
The critical value for this case is [tex]t_{\alpha}=1.68[/tex] since the calculated value is higher than the critical we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly higher than 18.4
Part b
The p value would be given by:
[tex]p_v =P(t_{(44)}>2.744)=0.0044[/tex]
In a survey of students, 60% were in high school and 40% were in middle school. Of the high school students, 30% had visited a foreign country. If a surveyed student is selected at random, what is the probability that the student is in high school and has visited a foreign country?
Answer:
The probability that the student is in high school and has visited a foreign country is 0.18.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that in a survey of students, 60% were in high school and 40% were in middle school.
Of the high school students, 30% had visited a foreign country.
Let the Probability that students were in high school = P(H) = 60%
Probability that students were in middle school = P(M) = 40%
Also, let F = event that students had had visited a foreign country
So, Probability that high school students had visited a foreign country = P(F/H) = 30%
Now, probability that the student is in high school and has visited a foreign country is given by = Probability that students were in high school [tex]\times[/tex] Probability that high school students had visited a foreign country
= P(H) [tex]\times[/tex] P(F/H)
= 0.60 [tex]\times[/tex] 0.30
= 0.18 or 18%

8 0.017
b. The proportion of the batches that have at most 4 is given as follows;
The number of the batches that have at most 4 = 6 + 12 + 13 + 15 + 5 = 51
Therefore, the proportion of the batches that have at most 4 = 51 / 59 = 0.864.

Step-by-step explanation:
First, "boxes of two sizes" means we can assign variables:
Let x = number of large boxes
y = number of small boxes
"There are 115 boxes in all" means x + y = 115 [eq1]
Now, the pounds for each kind of box is:
(pounds per box)*(number of boxes)
So,
pounds for large boxes + pounds for small boxes = 4125 pounds
"the truck is carrying a total of 4125 pounds in boxes"
(50)*(x) + (25)*(y) = 4125 [eq2]
It is important to find two equations so we can solve for two variables.
Solve for one of the variables in eq1 then replace (substitute) the expression for that variable in eq2. Let's solve for x:
x = 115 - y [from eq1]
50(115-y) + 25y = 4125 [from eq2]
5750 - 50y + 25y = 4125 [distribute]
5750 - 25y = 4125
-25y = -1625
y = 65 [divide both sides by (-25)]
There are 65 small boxes.
Put that value into either equation (now, which is easier?) to solve for x:
x = 115 - y
x = 115 - 65
x = 50
There are 50 large boxes.
Check (very important):
Is 50+65 = 115 ? [eq1]
115 = 115 ?yes
Is 50(50) + 25(65) = 4125 ?
2500 + 1625 = 4125 ?
4125 = 4125 ? ye
An individual closes out help desk tickets at a rate of 4 tickets per hour for h hours. Write an equation that expresses the situation, let x be the independent variable and y be the dependent variable
Answer:
y=4x
Step-by-step explanation:
an independent variable is the variable that is changed or controlled in an experiment or observation to test the effects on the dependent variable
a dependent variable is variable being tested and measured in a scientific experiment
in this case, the number of help desk tickets closed out is dependent on the number of hours the individual works so y is the number of tickets closed (dependent variable). The number of tickets closed of will be 4 multiplied by the number of hours worked i.e. y=4x
22,056 people went to the baseball game on Sunday. Half as many people came on money. How many people were at the baseball game on Sunday and Monday altogether?
Answer:
33084
Step-by-step explanation:

Add this answer to 22056 and this is how many people came on both days.
Daniel deposits $300 into an account that earns 16% interest annually. Which equation can be used to model his account balance, y, after x years?
Answer:
[tex]y=300(1+0.16)^x[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
This account can be modeled using the compound interest formula.the compound interest formula is expressed as[tex]A= P(1+r )^t[/tex]
Where
A =final amount = y
P=initial principal balance = $300
r=interest rate = 16%= 0.16
t=number of time periods elapsed= x
Hence the equation to model his account balance/ final amount A (y) after time (x) years is
[tex]y=300(1+0.16)^x[/tex]

A card is chosen at random from a standard deck of 52 cards, and then it is replaced and another card is chosen. What is the probability that at least one of the cards is a diamond or an ace?
Answer:
P = 0.5207
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we have three options: Just the first card is a diamond or an ace, Just the second card is a diamond or an ace and both cards are diamonds or aces.
Additionally, there are 16 cards that are diamond or aces in a standard deck of 52 cards (13 diamonds and 3 aces that are not diamonds). It means that there are 36 cards that are not diamond or aces (52 - 16 = 36).
So, the probability that just the first card is a diamond or an ace is calculated as:
[tex]P_1=\frac{16}{52}*\frac{36}{52}=0.2130[/tex]
At the same way, the probability that just the second card is a diamond or an ace is:
[tex]P_2=\frac{36}{52}*\frac{16}{52}=0.2130[/tex]
Finally, the probability that both cards are diamonds or aces is:
[tex]P_3=\frac{16}{52}*\frac{16}{52}=0.0947[/tex]
Therefore, the probability that at least one of the cards is a diamond or an ace is:
[tex]P=P_1+P_2+P_3\\P=0.2130+0.2130+0.0947\\P=0.5207[/tex]
