the time taken by a student to the university has been shown to be normally distributed with mean of 16 minutes and standard deviation of 2.1 minutes. He walks in once a day during term time, 180 days per year, and leaves home 20 minutes before his first lecture. a. Find the probability that he is late for his first lecture. b. Find the number of days per year he is likely to be late for his first lecture.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 2.84% probability that he is late for his first lecture.

b) 5.112 days

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 = 16, \sigma = 2.1[/tex]

a. Find the probability that he is late for his first lecture.

This is the probability that he takes more than 20 minutes to walk, which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 20. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{20 - 16}{2.1}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.905[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.905[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9716

1 - 0.9716 = 0.0284

2.84% probability that he is late for his first lecture.

b. Find the number of days per year he is likely to be late for his first lecture.

Each day, 2.84% probability that he is late for his first lecture.

Out of 180

0.0284*180 = 5.112 days

Find the measure of angle b

Answers

Answer: The measure of angle B is 31 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

180 -149 = 31

Answer:

31 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that 149 degrees and b are on a line. If they are next to each other they are called adjacent angles. There is a rule that adjacent angles add up to 180 degrees. So we subtract 149 from 180 and we get 31 degrees for angle b.

Claim: The mean pulse rate​ (in beats per​ minute) of adult males is equal to 69.3 bpm. For a random sample of 140 adult​ males, the mean pulse rate is 69.8 bpm and the standard deviation is 11.2 bpm. Complete parts​ (a) and​ (b) below.

a. Express the original claim in symbolic form.
_,_,bpm

Answers

Answer:

Part a

Null hypothesis: [tex] \mu = 69.3[/tex]

Alternative hypothesis: [tex]\mu \neq 69.3[/tex]

Part b

[tex] z = \frac{69.8- 69.3}{\frac{11.2}{\sqrt{140}}}= 0.528[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following info given :

[tex] \bar X = 69.8[/tex] the sample mean

[tex] n= 140[/tex] represent the sample size

[tex] s = 11.2[/tex] represent the standard deviation

Part a

And we want to test if the true mean is equal to 69.3 so then the system of hypothesis:

Null hypothesis: [tex] \mu = 69.3[/tex]

Alternative hypothesis: [tex]\mu \neq 69.3[/tex]

Part b: Find the statistic

The statistic is given by:

[tex] z= \frac{\bar X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

And replacing the info we got:

[tex] z = \frac{69.8- 69.3}{\frac{11.2}{\sqrt{140}}}= 0.528[/tex]

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

-2/3x + 9 = 4/3x - 3

First we need to simplify to where we have x on one side and a constant (number not connected to a variable) on the other side.

Subtract 4/3x from both sides:

-2/3x + 9 - 4/3x = -3

-6/3x + 9 = -3

Now subtract 9 from both sides:

-6/3x + 9 - 9 = -3 - 9

-6/3x = -12

Now turn -6/3 into a whole number to make things more simple:

-6/3 = -2

-2x = -12

Now divide both sides by -2 to get x by itself

-2x/-2 = -12/-2

x = -6

A classic counting problem is to determine the number of different ways that the letters of "misspell" can be arranged. Find that number.

Answers

Answer:

10,080 different ways that the letters of "misspell" can be arranged.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of arrangents of the letters of a word:

A word has n letters.

The are m repeating letters, each of them repeating [tex]r_{0}, r_{1}, ..., r_{m}[/tex] times

So the number of distincts ways the letters can be arranged is:

[tex]N_{A} = \frac{n!}{r_{1}! \times r_{2}! \times ... \times r_{m}}[/tex]

In this question:

Misspell has 8 letters, with s and l repeating twice.

So

[tex]N_{A} = \frac{8!}{2!2!} = 10080[/tex]

10,080 different ways that the letters of "misspell" can be arranged.

Suppose that a random number generator randomly generates a number from 1 to 65. Once a specific number is generated, the generator will not select that number again until it is reset.

A rectangle has a length of 60 in and a width of 8 in. Given a scale factor of 4in:5ft. What is the area of the rectangle?

Answers

Answer:

750ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = L*B

Before we find the area of the given rectangle, we need to convert the dimensions using the given scale.

Thus, dimensions of the given rectangle using the scale factor of 4in:5ft would be:

==> Length = 60in = (60*5)/4 = 75ft

Breadth or Width = 8in = (8*5)/4 = 10ft

Therefore, area of rectangle = L * B

= 75ft * 10ft

= 750 ft²

Area of rectangle = 750ft²

Length of a rod: Engineers on the Bay Bridge are measuring tower rods to find out if any rods have been corroded from salt water. There are rods on the east and west sides of the bridge span. One engineer plans to measure the length of an eastern rod 25 times and then calculate the average of the 25 measurements to estimate the true length of the eastern rod. A different engineer plans to measure the length of a western rod 20 times and then calculate the average of the 20 measurements to estimate the true length of the western rod.

Suppose the engineers construct a 90% confidence interval for the true length of their rods. Whose interval do you expect to be more precise (narrower)?

a. Both confidence intervals would be equally precise.

b. The engineer who weighed the rod 25 times.

c. The engineer who weighed the rod 20 times.

X₁: Length of an eastern rod of the Bay Bridge

n₁= 25

X₂: Length of a western rod of the Bay Bridge

n₂= 20

Both Engineers will use their samples to estimate the population average length of the rods using a 90% CI.

Assuming the standard normal distribution, the confidence interval will be centered in the estimated mean.

X[bar] ± [tex]Z_{1-\alpha /2}[/tex]*(σ/√n)

And the width is determined by the semi amplitude:

↓d= [tex]Z_{1-\alpha /2}[/tex]*(σ/√↑n)

As you can see the sample size has an indirect relationship with the semi amplitude of the interval. This means, when the sample size increases, the semi amplitude decreases, and if the sample size decreases, the semi amplitude increases. Naturally this is leaving all other elements of the equation constant, this means, using the same confidence level and the same population standard deviation.

Since the first engineer took the larger sample, he's confidence interval will be narrower and more accurate.

Approximate the probability that the sample mean LaTeX: \frac{ }{X} X of n = 25 delivered purities falls within .03 (percent) of the raw daily purity mean, LaTeX: \mu μ .

Answers

Answer:

There is a probability of 86.6% that the sample mean falls within 0.03 percent of the raw purity mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a population standard deviation of σ ≈ 0.1.

We have a sample of size n=25.

Then, we have a sampling distribution, which has a standard deviation for the sample mean that is:

[tex]\sigma_s=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{0.1}{\sqrt{25}}=\dfrac{0.1}{5}=0.02[/tex]

Now, we can calculate a z-score for a deviation of 0.03 percent from the mean as:

[tex]z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{0.03}{0.02}=\dfrac{0.03}{0.02}=1.5[/tex]

Note: we considered that the margin is ±0.03.

Then, the probability is:

[tex]P(|X-\mu|<0.03\%)=P(|z|<1.5)=0.866[/tex]
