Suppose cattle in a large herd have a mean weight of 3181lbs and a standard deviation of 119lbs. What is the probability that the mean weight of the sample of cows would differ from the population mean by greater than 11lbs if 49 cows are sampled at random from the herd

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

51.56% probability that the mean weight of the sample of cows would differ from the population mean by greater than 11lbs if 49 cows are sampled at random from the herd

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:

[tex]\mu = 3181, \sigma = 119, n = 49, s = \frac{119}{\sqrt{49}} = 17[/tex]

What is the probability that the mean weight of the sample of cows would differ from the population mean by greater than 11lbs if 49 cows are sampled at random from the herd

Lower than 3181 - 11 = 3170 lbs or greater than 3181 + 11 = 3192 lbs. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are equal. So i will find one of them, and multiply by 2.

Probability of mean weight lower than 3170 lbs:

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 3170. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{3170 - 3181}{17}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.65[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.65[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.2578

2*0.2578 = 0.5156

51.56% probability that the mean weight of the sample of cows would differ from the population mean by greater than 11lbs if 49 cows are sampled at random from the herd

The illustration below is an example of a semi regular tessellation
true or false?

Answers

The correct answer is False

Explanation:

A tessellation refers to a regular pattern created by using regular polygons; additionally, in a tessellation, there are no gaps or spaces between the polygons. Besides this, a tesselation is categorized as regular if there is only one type of polygon in all the pattern or as semi-regular if there are two or more polygons but these still form a regular pattern. According to this, the illustration below is not a semi-regular tessellation because this only includes one polygon (hexagons), and therefore this would be classified as a regular tessellation.

Alligators captured in Florida are found to have a mean length of 2 meters and a standard deviation of 0.35 meters. The lengths of alligators are believed to be approximately normally distributed. What percent of alligators have lengths greater than 2.2 meters?

Answers

Answer:

28.43% of alligators have lengths greater than 2.2 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using 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 = 2, \sigma = 0.35[/tex]

What percent of alligators have lengths greater than 2.2 meters?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 2.2. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{2.2 - 2}{0.35}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.57[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.57[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.7157

1 - 0.7157 = 0.2843

28.43% of alligators have lengths greater than 2.2 meters

The answer of top prism is 262

and down prism is 478

The upper figure is triangular prism.

so, we use bh+2ls+lb formula

B=5

h=3

s=4

l=19

Now,

surface area of triangular prism = bh+2ls+lb

= 5×3+2×19×4+19×5

= 262

The down figure is rectangular prism.

so, we use 2lw+2lh+2hw

l=5

h=6

w=19

Now,

The area of rectangular prism = 2lw+2lh+2hw

= 2×5×19+2×19×6+2×5×6

= 478

1. Molly is trying to find a relationship between the largest angle and largest side of a triangle. She has drawn dozens of triangles, and measured their parts. She’s ready to make a conjecture. What kind of reasoning was Molly using? Explain how you know it’s that kind of reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

Inductive reasoning

Step-by-step explanation:

I know that Molly is using inductive reasoning because she is collecting data from drawing and measuring the triangles to form a hypothesis. This hypothesis is whether or not there is a relationship between the largest angle and the largest side of a triangle.

Molly is using "Inductive Reasoning".

Inductive reasoning is a reasoning that is based on patterns you observe. If you observe a pattern in several tries, you can use inductive reasoning to decide the result of the next try, (although you have to be aware that the conclusion you reach this way may not be valid).

A conclusion you reach using inductive reasoning is called a "conjecture".  After measuring dozens of triangles, Molly has noticed a pattern, so she is ready to make a conjecture.

(It seems to me that a conjecture and a hypothesis are closely related.)

The question is incomplete:

What should I buy? A study conducted by a research group in a recent year reported that 57% of cell phone owners used their phones inside a store for guidance on purchasing decisions. A sample of 14 cell phone owners is studied. Round the answers to at least four decimal places. What is the probability that seven or more of them used their phones for guidance on purchasing decisions?

We can model this as a binomial random variable, with p=0.57 and n=14.

[tex]P(x=k)=\dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}q^{n-k}[/tex]

a) We have to calculate the probability that seven or more of them used their phones for guidance on purchasing decisions:

[tex]P(x\geq7)=\sum_{k=7}^{14}P(x=k)\\\\\\[/tex]

[tex]P(x=7)=\dbinom{14}{7} p^{7}q^{7}=3432*0.0195*0.0027=0.1824\\\\\\P(x=8) = \dbinom{14}{8} p^{8}q^{6}=3003*0.0111*0.0063=0.2115\\\\\\P(x=9) = \dbinom{14}{9} p^{9}q^{5}=2002*0.0064*0.0147=0.1869\\\\\\P(x=10) = \dbinom{14}{10} p^{10}q^{4}=1001*0.0036*0.0342=0.1239\\\\\\P(x=11) = \dbinom{14}{11} p^{11}q^{3}=364*0.0021*0.0795=0.0597\\\\\\P(x=12) = \dbinom{14}{12} p^{12}q^{2}=91*0.0012*0.1849=0.0198\\\\\\P(x=13) = \dbinom{14}{13} p^{13}q^{1}=14*0.0007*0.43=0.004\\\\\\[/tex]

[tex]P(x=14) = \dbinom{14}{14} p^{14}q^{0}=1*0.0004*1=0.0004\\\\\\[/tex]

[tex]P(x\geq7)=0.1824+0.2115+0.1869+0.1239+0.0597+0.0198+0.004+0.0004\\\\P(x\geq7)=0.7886[/tex]

Answers

I think just two reflections would do it.

First we reflect around y = -x, the 45 degree line through the origin and the second and fourth quadrant.

Then we reflect through the y axis, x=0.

The composition of the two reflections is equivalent to a 90 degree clockwise rotation.

Answer: No, it is not possible to get the same image as a 90-degree clockwise rotation using only translations and/or reflections. In the rotation, the x- and y-coordinates are switched. There is no way to reverse the order of the coordinates using only reflections or translations.
