Medicare Hospital Insurance The average yearly Medicare Hospital Insurance benefit per person was $4064 in a recent year. Suppose the benefits are normally distributed with a standard deviation of $460. Assume that the sample is taken from a large population and the correction factor can be ignored. Use a TI-83 Plus/TI-84 Plus calculator. Round your answer to at least four decimal places.
Find the probability that the mean benefit for a random sample of 20 patients is more than $4100.
P (X > 4100) =?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.3632 = 36.32% probability that the mean benefit for a random sample of 20 patients is more than $4100.

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.

In this question, we have that:

Population: [tex]\mu = 4064, \sigma = 460[/tex]

Sample of 20: [tex]n = 20, s = \frac{460}{\sqrt{20}} = 102.86[/tex]

Find the probability that the mean benefit for a random sample of 20 patients is more than $4100.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 4100. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{4100 - 4064}{102.86}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.35[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.35[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.6368

1 - 0.6368 = 0.3632

0.3632 = 36.32% probability that the mean benefit for a random sample of 20 patients is more than $4100.

Katy organised a wedding. Guests had to choose their meal from pasta , chicken or beef . 1/3 of the guests chose pasta . 5/12 of the guests chose chicken . 24 of the guests chose beef. How many guests were at the wedding ?

please help i’ll give brainliest

Answers

Answer:

There were 96 guests at the wedding.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

x be the total number of guests at the wedding.

People who chose pasta = 1/3 of the guests = [tex]\frac{1}{3}x[/tex]

People who chose chicken = [tex]\frac{5}{12}x[/tex]

People who chose beef = 24

Now,

[tex]\frac{1}{3}x+\frac{5}{12}x+24=x\\\\\frac{4x+5x+288}{12}=x\\9x+288 = 12x\\288=12x-9x\\288=3x\\3x=288[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 3

[tex]\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{288}{3}\\x=96[/tex]

Hence,

There were 96 guests at the wedding.

Ashley’s school took a field trip. A total of 32 vehicles were needed for the trip. Some students took the bus, and some students car-pooled. There were 27 people on each bus and 3 people in each car. 408 people altogether attended the trip. How many buses and cars were needed for the trip?

Answers

Answer:

19 cars

13 buses

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a system of equations as follows

X + y = 32 -----1

3x + 27y = 408 ----2

x = car

y = bus

From equation 1

x + y = 32

x = 32 - y ---- 3

We put equation 3 into equation 2

3(32-y) + 27y = 408

96y -3y + 27y = 408

96 + 24y = 408

24y = 408 - 96

24y = 312

Divide through by 24 to get the value of y

Y = 312/24

Y = 13

We put the value of y in equation 3

x = 32 - 13

x = 19

So 19 cars would be needed for the trip and also 13 buses would also be needed

A farmer raises only ducks and pigs. There are 55 animals in all on his farm, and 146 legs.
Find the number of ducks and pigs on his farm by setting up and solving a system of equations.
Define the variables
Equations
Show all work

Answers

Answer:

Number of ducks = 37

Number of pigs = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

x be the number of ducks

y be the number of pigs

According to given statement;

x+y=55     Eqn 1

2x+4y=146     Eqn 2 (As ducks will have 2 legs and pigs will have 4)

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 2

2(x+y=55)

2x+2y=110    Eqn 3

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

(2x+4y)-(2x+2y)=146-110

2x+4y-2x-2y=36

2y=36

Dividing both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{36}{2}\\y=18[/tex]

Putting y=18 in Eqn 1

x+18=55

x = 55-18

x = 37

Hence,

Number of ducks = 37

Number of pigs = 18

Answers

In accordance with functional theory, definition of functions and kinds of functions, the function is not injective but surjective. (Correct choice: C)

Does represent the picture of the function an injective or surjective function?

In accordance with functional theory, functions are relations in which each element of the domain is related to only one element of the range. There are three kinds of functions: (i) Injective - Each domain element is related to one distinct element of the range, (ii) Surjective - There are at least two domain elements that are related to an element of the range, (iii) Bijective - The function is both injective and surjective.

Based on all these information, we conclude that the given function has at least two values of the x-axis (domain) related to one value of the y-axis (range). In a nutshell, the function is not injective but surjective. (Correct choice: C)

Step-by-step explanation:

the angle is 90 degrees

Answer:  x = 31

======================================================

Explanation:

Refer to the diagram below. I've added the variable y as the base angles to the isosceles triangle on the left.

Recall that the angles opposite the congruent sides are the base angles. The base angles of any isosceles triangle are the same measure.

Let's solve for y

y+y+56 = 180 .... all angles in a triangle add to 180

2y+56 = 180

2y = 180-56

2y = 124

y = 124/2

y = 62

I've also added the variable z, which is adjacent to one of the y angles.

Since y and z combine to form a straight angle, this means the two angles add to 180

y+z = 180

z = 180-y

z = 180-62

z = 118

Now focus on the isosceles triangle on the right. It has angles x, x, and z = 118.

x+x+z = 180

x+x+118 = 180

2x+118 = 180

2x = 180-118

2x = 62

x = 62/2

x = 31
