Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Mean of the binomial distribution  μ = 82.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given sample size 'n' = 106 diamonds

The probability that the diamonds fail to qualify as "gemstone grade

p = 78% =0.78

We will use binomial distribution

Mean of the binomial distribution

                                       μ = n p

                                       μ = 106 × 0.78

                                       μ = 82.68

b. Write the probability distribution.
c. Draw a histogram.
d. Describe the shape of the histogram.
e. Find the mean.
f. Find the variance.
g. Find the standard deviation.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value of the extended warrant is calculated as follow.

Value of Waranty

= 800 x 20% − 112.10

= 800 x 20/100 − 112.10

= 47.9

The expected value of the extended warranty assuming it is replaced in the first 2 years is given as follow.

Expected value=800-112.10=>687.90

Therefore, required expected value of extended warranty is 687.90

2.

Given information:

Number of Trials (n) = 15

Probability of Success (p) = 0.10

a) Let X represents the number of left-handed people.

b) The probability distribution follows binomial distribution.

X ∼ Binomial distribution

The probability distribution is given as follow.

P(X = x) = ^nCx(p)^x(1 − p)^n − x

c)The histogram is given as follow. (See attachment)

d) The shape of histogram is skewed right.

e) The mean is calculated as follow.

Mean

=n x p

= 15 x 0.10

= 1.5

f) The variance is calculated as follow.

Variance

= n x p x q

= 15 x 0.10 x 0.90

= 1.35

g) The standard deviation is calculated as follow.

Standard deviation

=√n x p x q

=√15 x 0.10 x 0.90

= 1.162

Find the constant of variation k for the direct variation 3x+5y=0

Answers

Answer:

-3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+5y=0

Subtract 3x from each side

3x+5y-3x=0-3x

5y = -3x

Divide each side by 5

5y/5 = -3x/5

y = -3/5 x

A direct variation is y = kx

y = -3/5 x

The constant of variation is -3/5

Accident rate data y1, ...., y12 were collected over 12 consecutive years t=1,2,...12. At over 12 consecutive years t = 1,2,..., 12. At the end of the 6th year, a change in safety regulations occured. FOr each of the following situations, set up a linear model of the form y=XB+E. Define X and B appropriately.

a. The accident rate y is a linear function of t with the new safety regulations having no effect.

b. The accident rate y is a quadratic function of t with the new regulations having no effect.

c. The accident rate y is a linear function of t. The slope for t>= 7 is the same as for t<7. However there is a discrete jump for t=7.

d. The accident rate y is a linear function of t. After t=7, the slope changes, with the two lines intersecting at t=7.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

The accident rate is a linear model function of t. After t = 7, the slope changes, with the two lines intersecting at t = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

Accident rate data = y₁, y₂, y₃, y₄, y₅, y₆, y₇, y₈, y₉, y₁₀, y₁₁, y₁₂

Time at which data was recorded = t₁, t₂, t₃, t₄, t₅, t₆, t₇, t₈, t₉, t₁₀, t₁₁, t₁₂

Accident rate equation is a linear model given as follows;

y = X·B + E

Where:

y = Accident rate

X = Slope of linear model

B = Year

E = y intercept of model

At the end of the 6th year, a change in a regulation that affects safety, hence accident rate occurred given as follows;

Before the change in safety regulations occurred for year t < 7 y₁ = X₁B + E₁

After the change in safety regulations occurred for year t < 7 y₂ = X₂B + E₂

Therefore the slope changes from X₁ to X₂ after t = 7 with the second linear model starting from the end of the first linear model making the two lines intersect at t = 7 (the beginning of year 7)

Hence the correct option is that "The accident rate is a linear model function of t. After t = 7, the slope changes, with the two lines intersecting at t = 7."

If an exponential model was used to fit the data set below, which of the following would be the best prediction for the output of the model if the input was x=20?

Answers

Answer:

The equation is found to be: [tex]y = 50.6e^{0.16x}[/tex]

y(20) = 1241.34

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data is:

x:   3          7         11        14          17

y: 83      142      301     450      722

Now, we find sum summation values, relevant to the formula of exponential regression model, using calculator:

∑ ln y = 27.77305, ∑x ln y = 308.1494, ∑x = 52, ∑ x² = 664

and, n = no. of data points = 5

Now, we use formulae of exponential regression model to find out values of constant:

b = (n∑x lny - ∑x ∑ln y)/[n∑x² - (∑x)²]

b = [(5)(308.1494) - (52)(27.77305)]/[(5)(664) - (52)²]

b = 0.16

Now, for a;

a = (∑ln y - b∑x)/n

Therefore,

a = [(27.77305) - (0.16)(52)]/5

a = 3.9

For, α:

α = e^a = e^3.9

α = 50.6

So, the final equation of exponential regression model is given as:

[tex]y = \alpha e^{bx}\\ y = 50.6e^{0.16x}[/tex]

Now, we find value of y for x = 20:

y(20) = (50.6) e^(0.16*20)

y(20) = 1241.34

Electricity usage data consists of 45 months has a mean number of units consumed is 390.47 per month with a standard deviation of 170.5 units per month. Assume that the number of units consumed are approximately normally distributed. Estimate 95% confidence interval for the average monthly electricity consumed units.

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the average monthly electricity consumed units is between 47.07 and 733.87

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample. So we use the t-distribution to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 45 - 1 = 44

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 44 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.0141

The margin of error is:

M = T*s = 2.0141*170.5 = 343.4

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 390.47 - 343.40 = 47.07 units per month

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 390.47 + 343.40 = 733.87 units per month

The 95% confidence interval for the average monthly electricity consumed units is between 47.07 and 733.87

Assume that 1100 births are randomly selected and exactly 556 of the births are girls. Use subjective judgment to determine whether the given outcome is​ unlikely, and also determine whether it is unusual in the sense that the result is far from what is typically expected.

Answers

Answer:

The sample proportion for the births that are girls is 0.505. It is slightly higher than the expected value of 0.5, but the right way to answer if it is an unusual proportion is by performing an hypothesis test.

The hypothesis test results in not enough evidence to claim that the outcome is unlikely. This sample result has a probability of 0.7627 of appearing by pure chance in a population with proportion p=0.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a hypothesis test for a proportion.

The claim is that the proportion of girls birth differs significantly from the expected proportion (50%).

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \pi=0.5\\\\H_a:\pi\neq 0.5[/tex]

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample has a size n=1100.

The sample proportion is p=0.505.

p=X/n=556/1100=0.505

The standard error of the proportion is:

[tex]\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.5*0.5}{1100}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.000227}=0.015[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:

[tex]z=\dfrac{p-\pi-0.5/n}{\sigma_p}=\dfrac{0.505-0.5-0.5/1100}{0.015}=\dfrac{0.005}{0.015}=0.302[/tex]

This test is a two-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as:

[tex]\text{P-value}=2\cdot P(z>0.302)=0.7627[/tex]

As the P-value (0.7627) is greater than the significance level (0.05), the effect is  not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of girls birth differs significantly from the expected proportion (50%).

A company estimates that 0.8% of their products will fail after the original warranty period but within 2 years of the purchase, with a replacement cost of $400. If they offer a 2 year extended warranty for $27, what is the company's expected value of each warranty sold?

Answers

Answer:

The expected value of each warranty sold is $23.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.8% probability of the product failling.

If the product fails, the company will lose 400 - 27 = $373. So a net value of -373.

100 - 0.8 = 99.2% probability of the product not failling.

If the product does not fail, the company gains $27.

What is the company's expected value of each warranty sold?

We multiply each outcome by its probability.

0.008*(-373) + 0.992*27 = 23.8

The expected value of each warranty sold is $23.8.

The speed of a passenger train is 6 mph faster than the speed of a freight train. The passenger train travels 260 miles in the same time it takes the freight train to travel 230 miles. Find the speed of each train.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

let speed of freight train be x

speed of passenger train = x+6

Passenger train distance = 280 miles

freight train 250 milesthe times taken for these distances is the same

280/(x+6)=250/x

280x=250(x+6)

280x=250x+1500

30x = 1500

x= 50 mph the speed of freight train.

x+6= 50+6 = 56mph = speed of passenger train.

Step-by-step explanation:

A paired sample t-test is most of the time used when in determining the difference between two related dependent variables and in this context; we have

approval ratings before the senator's decision variables and

approval rating after the senator's decision variables for the same subject

These revolves around the senator's decision causing a decrease in approval ratings. Often the two variables are separated by time.

It is used to determine whether the mean of the dependent variable (approval ratings) is the same in the two related groups (the before and after decision groups).
