Running times for 400 meters are Normally distributed for young men between 18 and 30 years of age with a mean of 93 seconds and a standard deviation of 16 seconds. How fast does a man have to run to be in the top 1% of runners?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

To be in the top 1% of the runners, the man has to run the 400 meters in at most 55.768 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 93, \sigma = 16[/tex]

How fast does a man have to run to be in the top 1% of runners?

The lower the time, the faster they are. So the man has to be at most in the 1st percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.01. So he has to run in at most X seconds, and X is found when Z = -2.327. Then

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

[tex]-2.327 = \frac{X - 93}{16}[/tex]

[tex]X - 93 = -2.327*16[/tex]

[tex]X = 55.768[/tex]

To be in the top 1% of the runners, the man has to run the 400 meters in at most 55.768 seconds.

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?

Answers

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]

The differential equation below models the temperature of a 91°C cup of coffee in a 17°C room, where it is known that the coffee cools at a rate of 1°C per minute when its temperature is 70°C. Solve the differential equation to find an expression for the temperature of the coffee at time t. dy dt = − 1 53 (y − 17)\

Answers

Answer:

[tex]t \approx 17.690\,min[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This differential equation is a first order linear differential equation with separable variables, whose solution is found as follows:

[tex]\frac{dy}{dt} = - \frac{1}{53} \cdot (y - 17)[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dy}{y-17} = -\frac{1}{53} \, dt[/tex]

[tex]\int\limits^{y}_{y_{o}} {\frac{dy}{y-17} } = -\frac{1}{53} \int\limits^{t}_{0}\, dx[/tex]

[tex]\ln \left |\frac{y-17}{y_{o}-17} \right | = -\frac{1}{53} \cdot t[/tex]

[tex]\frac{y-17}{y_{o}-17} = e^{-\frac{1}{53}\cdot t }[/tex]

[tex]y = 17 + (y_{o} - 17) \cdot e^{-\frac{1}{53}\cdot t }[/tex]

The solution of the differential equation is:

[tex]y = 17 + 74\cdot e^{-\frac{1}{53}\cdot t }[/tex]

Where:

[tex]y[/tex] - Temperature, measured in °C.

[tex]t[/tex] - Time, measured in minutes.

The time when the cup of coffee has the temperature of 70 °C is:

[tex]70 = 17 + 74 \cdot e^{-\frac{1}{53}\cdot t }[/tex]

[tex]53 = 74 \cdot e^{-\frac{1}{53}\cdot t }[/tex]

[tex]\frac{53}{74} = e^{-\frac{1}{53}\cdot t }[/tex]

[tex]\ln \frac{53}{74} = -\frac{1}{53}\cdot t[/tex]

[tex]t = - 53\cdot \ln \frac{53}{74}[/tex]

[tex]t \approx 17.690\,min[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since opposite angles of a quadrilateral inscribes in a circle add up to 180°

So,

2x+2x-12 = 180°

4x = 180+12

4x = 192

Dividing both sides by 4

x = 48

Now

<P = 2(48)

Step-by-step explanation:

A pair of angles formed from the intersection of two lines opposite to each other at the point of intersection (vertex) is called vertically opposite angles. These vertically opposite angles are congruent to each other (that means they are equal).

Since opposite angles are equal, the equation needed to calculate w is given as:

80° = 36° + w

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.

Answers

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:

Answers

Answer:

There are 55 sweets in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of sweets is t.

Henry, Brian and Colin share some sweets in the ratio 6:4:1.

This means that Henry earns [tex]\frac{6}{6+4+1} = \frac{6}{11}[/tex] of the total(t).

Brian earns [tex]\frac{4}{11}[/tex] of the total.

Colin earns [tex]\frac{1}{11}[/tex] of the total

Henry gets 25 more sweets than Colin.

Henry earns [tex]\frac{6t}{11}[/tex]

Colin earns [tex]\frac{t}{11}[/tex]

So

[tex]\frac{6t}{11} = \frac{t}{11} + 25[/tex]

Multiplying everything by 1

[tex]6t = t + 275[/tex]

[tex]5t = 275[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{275}{5}[/tex]

[tex]t = 55[/tex]

There are 55 sweets in total.

Fifty random shoppers at an electronics store have been interviewed and 35 of them intend to purchase a newly released smart phone. What probability distribution describes this situation and what are its mean and standard deviation of phone sales if we are concerned about 1071 shoppers that day

Answers

Answer:

We use the binomial distribution to describe this situation.

The mean number of phone sales is 749.7 with a standard deviation of 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each shopper, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they plan to purchase the newly released smart phone, or they do not. Each customer is independent of other customers. So we use the binomial distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Fifty random shoppers at an electronics store have been interviewed and 35 of them intend to purchase a newly released smart phone.

This means that [tex]p = \frac{35}{50} = 0.7[/tex]

What are its mean and standard deviation of phone sales if we are concerned about 1071 shoppers that day

1071 shoppers, so [tex]n = 1071[/tex]

Mean

[tex]E(X) = 1071*0.7 = 749.7[/tex]

Standard deviation

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{1071*0.7*0.3} = 15[/tex]

The mean number of phone sales is 749.7 with a standard deviation of 15.

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

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.

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?

Answers

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]

Watermelon A is 2 kg lighter than watermelon B and it weighs one fifth of the weight of watermelon C. Watermelons A and C together are 3 times as heavy as watermelon B. How heavy is each watermelon?

Answers

Answer:

A: 2 kgB: 4 kgC: 10 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write some equations to describe the given relationships:

  A = B - 2 . . . . . A is 2 kg lighter than B

  A = C/5 . . . . . . A is 1/5 the weight of C

  A+C = 3B . . . . together, A and C are 3 times the weight of B

__

Let's solve for A.

  B = A+2 . . . from the first equation

  C = 5A . . . . from the second equation

  A +5A = 3(A+2) . . . . substituting for B and C in the third equation

  6A = 3A +6

  3A = 6

  A = 2

__

  B = A+2 = 4

  C = 5A = 10

Watermelon A weighs 2 kg; B weighs 4 kg; and C weighs 10 kg.

Answer:

2 kg 4 kg 10 kg

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?

Answers

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

Answer:

0.795 [tex]\leq[/tex] y [tex]\leq[/tex] 0.805

Step-by-step explanation:

8 = 5x + 4

5x = 4

x = 4/5 or 0.800

therefore 0.800 + .005 and 0.800 - .005 =

0.795 [tex]\leq[/tex] y [tex]\leq[/tex] 0.805
