Suppose you had a population of fish whose lengths were normally distributed with a mean of 50 centimeters and a standard deviation of 5 centimeters. You draw a simple random sample of size 10, record the length of each fish, and calculate the mean of the sample lengths. What do you think your sample mean would most likely be

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The sample mean would most likely be 50 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

In this question:

The mean of the population is 50 centimers.

So, by the Central Limit Theorem, the sample mean would most likely be also 50 centimeters.

What is the value of the expression when a = –5 and c = –1? Enter your answer in the box.

Answers

Answer:

-5a+-1c

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of Expression: 8a+ 16c is -56.

What is Expression?

A mathematical operation such as subtraction, addition, multiplication, or division is used to combine terms into an expression. In a mathematical expression, the following terms are used:

An absolute numerical number is referred to as a constant.Variable: A symbol without a set value is referred to as a variable.Term: A term can be made up of a single constant, a single variable, or a mix of variables and constants multiplied or divided.

Given:

Expression: 8a+ 16c

We have the value a= -5 and c=-1

So, putting the values in the given expression as

8a+ 16c

= 8(-5)+ 16(-1)

= -40 - 16

= -56

Hence, the value is -56.

A. n(x) = f(g(h(x)))

B. n(x) = g(f(h(x)))

C. n(x) = g(h(f(x)))

D. n(x) = h(f(g(x)))

E. n(x) = f(h(g(x)))

please help a girl is struggling❤️

Answers

Answer:

n(x) = g(f(h(x)))

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]f(x) = x^3[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = x-7[/tex]

[tex]h(x) = x + 2[/tex]

Required

Which function represents [tex]n(x) = (x + 2)^3 - 7[/tex]

Start by solving for f(h(x)):

Given that:

[tex]f(x) = x^3[/tex]  and [tex]h(x) = x + 2[/tex]

Substitute x + 2 for the x in f(x)

[tex]f(h(x)) = (x + 2)^3[/tex]

Next, solve for g(f(h(x)))

Given that:

[tex]g(x) = x-7[/tex] and [tex]f(h(x)) = (x + 2)^3[/tex]

Substitute (x + 2)^3 for the x in g(x)

[tex]g(f(h(x))) = (x + 2)^3 - 7[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]n(x) = (x + 2)^3 - 7[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]n(x) = g(f(h(x))) = (x + 2)^3 - 7[/tex]

A patient has an illness that typically lasts about 24 hours. The temperature, T, in degrees Fahrenheit, of the patient t hours after the illness begins is given by:T(t) = -0.02t^2 +0.4968 +98.
a. When does the patient's temperature reach its maximum value
b. What is the patient's maximum temperature during illness

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The temperature, T, in degrees Fahrenheit, of the patient t hours after the illness begins is given by:

[tex]T(t)=-0.02t^2 +0.4968 t+98[/tex] ...(1)

(a) We need to find when does the patient's temperature reach its maximum value.

For maximum value.

Put dT(t)/dt = 0

[tex]\dfrac{d(T(t)}{dt}=\dfrac{d}{dt}(-0.02t^2 +0.4968t +98)\\\\=-0.04t+0.4968\\\\-0.04t+0.4968=0\\\\t=12.42\ h[/tex]

(b) Put t = 12.42 in equation (1) :

[tex]T(12.42)=-0.02(12.42)^2 +0.4968 (12.42)+98\\\\=101.08^{\circ} F[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.

You are the operations manager for an airline and you are considering a higher fare level for passengers in aisle seats. How many randomly selected air passengers must you​ survey? Assume that you want to be 95% confident that the sample percentage is within 4.2 percentage points of the true population percentage.

Answers

Answer:

545 randomly selected air passengers must be surveyed.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

Assume that you want to be 95% confident that the sample percentage is within 4.2 percentage points of the true population percentage.

We dont know the true proportion, so we use [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex], which is when the largest sample size will be needed. We have to find n for which [tex]M = 0.042[/tex]. So

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.042 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.042\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.5}{0.042}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*0.5}{0.042})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 544.4[/tex]

A truck like the one shown delivers a load of gasoline to a gas station 3 times a week. The storage tank at the gas station holds 9 loads of fuel. How much more gas does the storage tank hold than the truck.


The truck hauls 2,700 gallons.

Answers

Answer:

21,600 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

The truck hauls 2,700 gallons.

Given :

A truck load of gasoline = 2700 gallons

Capacity of storage tank = 9 loads

Gallons of fuel which storage tank can take :

9 loads

1 load = 2700 gallons

9 * 2700 gallons

= 24300 gallons

Hence, the storage tank holds (9 - 1) = 8 more loads of gasoline than the truck :

24300 gallons - 2700 gallons = 21600 gallons

10% of a really large number can be bigger than 20% of a small number. 10% of 100 is 10. 20% of 10 is 2. 10 is bigger than 2 so Sergi's claim is false.

The car's speed can be detemined  by Distance / Time. This would mean we would have to do 224 / 4, which would equal 56.

Now, all we have to do is mulitply 56 by 10. This would equal 560.
