Explanation:

The info "5 months" is never used to compute the mean. We could easily replace it with "6 months" or "7 months" or any stretch of time, and still get the same answer. So we'll ignore this value.

What we'll do is add up the 21 items given to us, and then divide by 21.

Because there are so many values, and it's easy to get lost, I'm going to add up across the rows

Those subtotals then add up to this

1,499,116+1,586,126+1,591,076+842,147 = 5,518,465

This is the same as adding up all 21 values.

Finally, we divide that sum over 21 as there are 21 values in this list

(5,518,465)/21 = 262,784.047619048

That value then rounds up to 262,785

If your teacher just wanted things to the nearest whole number (without rounding up), then the answer would be 262,784

Side note: using a spreadsheet program would probably be the most efficient/fastest method for this type of problem.

Answer:

The student's GPA is of 0.82.

Step-by-step explanation:

GPA:

To find the student's GPA, we find his weighed mean.

Grades:

7 hours worth 3(B)

6 hours worth 1(D)

20 hours worth 0(F). So

[tex]M = \frac{7*3 + 6*1 + 20*0}{7+6+20} = 0.82[/tex]

The student's GPA is of 0.82.

Answer:

y = 2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations are put in slope intercept form

Slope intercept form: y = mx + b

Where m = slope and b = y intersect

So in order to find the equation of the data represented by the table we will have to find the slope and y intercept

Let's begin!

First let's find the slope

We can find the slope by using the slope formula

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) where the x and y values are derived from coordinates from the table

The points chosen may vary but I have chosen the points (0,-4) and (1,-2)

Now that we have chosen the points we will use to find the slope let's define the variables

remember coordinates are written like this: (x,y)

The x value of the second coordinate is 1 so x2 = 1

The x value of the first coordinate is 0

So x1 = 0

The y value of the second coordinate is -2 so y2 = -2

The y value of the first coordinate is -4

So y1 = -4

Now that we have defined each variable let's plug in the values into the formula

Formula: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Variables: x2 = 1, x1 = 0, y2 = -2, y1 = -4

Substitute values

m = (-2 - (-4) / ( 1 - 0 )

Evaluate

The negative signs cancel out on top and it changes to +4

m = (-2 + 4)/(1-0)

Add top values

m = 2/(1-0)

Subtract bottom numbers

m = 2/1

Simplify fraction

m = 2

So we can conclude that the slope (m) = 2

Now let's find the y intercept or "b"

The y intercept is the value of y when x = 0

If you look at the table when x = 0 y = -4 meaning that the y intercept or "b" is -4

Now that we have found everything let's find the equation of the data represented by the table

The equation is in slope intercept form

y = mx + b

Define variables

m = 2 and b = -4

Substitute values

y = 2x - 4

The equation is y = 2x - 4

The actual labor cost is $600 over the targeted labor cost.

Given that,

Work done by each person per week = 40 hours

Required labor hours per week = 600 hours

No. of workers in the team = 13

To find,

Actual weekly labor cost = ?

Procedure:

Actual weekly labor cost = No. of workers * no. of hours performed by them

[tex]= 13 * 40[/tex]

[tex]= 520 hours[/tex]

Given that,

[tex]Regular rate = $ 15.00 per hour[/tex]

[tex]Overtime rate = $ 22.50 per hour[/tex]

Thus,

Actual labor cost = (regular hours worked * regular rate) + (overtime * overtime rate)

[tex]= (520 * 15) + ([600 - 520] * 22.50)[/tex]

[tex]= $ 7,800 + $ 1,800[/tex]

[tex]= $ 9600[/tex]

Targeted Labor cost = $ 9,000 per week

Thus, option C i.e. the actual labor cost is $ 600 over the targeted labor cost.

Answer:

the scale factor is 3/4

x = 16×3/4 = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

the only side length we have for both triangles is the short left side.

we see that we get ED from SR and need to transform 4 into 3. how do we do that ?

well,

4×f = 3

f = 3/4

that is the scaling factor, as all side lengths in EDF are created by multiplying the corresponding side in SRT by the same scaling factor (3/4).

therefore,

x = EF = ST×f = 16×3/4 = 4×3 = 12

Answer:

The scale factor is 4/3 and x is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Divide RS by DE

4 ÷ 3 = 4/3

→ Divide the answer by 16

16 ÷ 4/3 = 12

Answer:  Choice D

HG= 11 square root 3/3 and HI = 22 square root 3/3

In other words, [tex]\text{HG} = \frac{11\sqrt{3}}{3} \ \text{ and } \ \text{HI} = \frac{22\sqrt{3}}{3}\\\\[/tex]

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

Explanation:

Let's say that x is the short leg and y is the long leg

For any 30-60-90 triangle, we have this connection: [tex]y = x\sqrt{3}[/tex]

The long leg y is exactly sqrt(3) times longer compared to the short leg x.

Let's solve for x and then plug in y = 11

[tex]y = x\sqrt{3}\\\\x = \frac{y}{\sqrt{3}}\\\\x = \frac{y*\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}*\sqrt{3}}\\\\x = \frac{y\sqrt{3}}{3}\\\\x = \frac{11\sqrt{3}}{3}\\\\[/tex]

Side HG, the shorter leg, has an exact length of [tex]\text{HG} = \frac{11\sqrt{3}}{3}\\\\[/tex]

------------------

Once we know the short leg, we double that expression to get the length of the hypotenuse. Like before, this only applies to 30-60-90 triangles.

[tex]\text{hypotenuse} = 2*(\text{short leg})\\\\\text{HI} = 2*\text{HG}\\\\\text{HI} = 2*\frac{11\sqrt{3}}{3}\\\\\text{HI} = \frac{22\sqrt{3}}{3}\\\\[/tex]

------------------

Since [tex]\text{HG} = \frac{11\sqrt{3}}{3}\\\\[/tex] and [tex]\text{HI} = \frac{22\sqrt{3}}{3}\\\\[/tex], this shows that choice D is the final answer.

Answer:

29.1 Is the answer for 2009

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

a) The 95% confidence interval for the mean mpg, for the certain model of car is (23.3, 30.1). This means that we are 95% sure that the true mean mpg of the model of the car is between 23.3 mpg and 30.1 mpg.

b) Increasing the confidence level, the value of T would increase, thus increasing the margin of error and making the interval wider.

c) 37 cars would have to be sampled.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

We have the sample standard deviation, and thus, the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 15 - 1 = 14

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 14 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.1448

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.1448\frac{6.2}{\sqrt{15}} = 3.4[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 26.7 - 3.4 = 23.3 mpg.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 26.7 + 3.4 = 30.1 mpg.

The 95% confidence interval for the mean mpg, for the certain model of car is (23.3, 30.1). This means that we are 95% sure that the true mean mpg of the model of the car is between 23.3 mpg and 30.1 mpg.

b. What would happen to the interval if you increased the confidence level from 95% to 99%? Explain

Increasing the confidence level, the value of T would increase, thus increasing the margin of error and making the interval wider.

c. The lead engineer is not happy with the interval you constructed and would like to keep the width of the whole interval to be less than 4 mpg wide. How many cars would you have to sample to create the interval the engineer is requesting?

Width is twice the margin of error, so a margin of error of 2 would be need. To solve this, we have to consider the population standard deviation as [tex]\sigma = 6.2[/tex], and then use the z-distribution.

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

How many cars would you have to sample to create the interval the engineer is requesting?

This is n for which M = 2. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]2 = 1.96\frac{6.2}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]2\sqrt{n} = 1.96*6.2[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*6.2}{2}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*6.2}{2})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 36.9[/tex]

Rounding up:

37 cars would have to be sampled.

Explanation:

Side MO is twice as long as the midsegment XY. Note how XY and MO are parallel.

This makes

MO = 2*XY = 2*10 = 20

Side MO breaks into two equal halves MZ and ZO

Each of MZ and ZO are 20/2 = 10 units long.

Put another way: XY, MZ and ZO are all the same length (all 10 units long).

---------------

The diagram shows that segment NO is 18 units long, which cuts in half to 18/2 = 9. This is the length of NY, YO and XZ

Also, MN = 14 which cuts in half to 7. This means MX, XN and YZ are all 7 units each.

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

a)

[tex]|z| < 2.054[/tex]: Do not reject the null hypothesis.

[tex]|z| > 2.054[/tex]: Reject the null hypothesis.

b) [tex]z = 2.81[/tex]

c) Reject.

d) The p-value is 0.005.

Step-by-step explanation:

Before testing the hypothesis, we need to understand the central limit theorem and the subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes 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.

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

Population 1:

Sample of 42, standard deviation of 3.3, mean of 101, so:

[tex]\mu_1 = 101[/tex]

[tex]s_1 = \frac{3.3}{\sqrt{42}} = 0.51[/tex]

Population 2:

Sample of 53, standard deviation of 3.6, mean of 99, so:

[tex]\mu_2 = 99[/tex]

[tex]s_2 = \frac{3.6}{\sqrt{53}} = 0.495[/tex]

H0 : μ1 = μ2

Can also be written as:

[tex]H_0: \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 0[/tex]

H1 : μ1 ≠ μ2

Can also be written as:

[tex]H_1: \mu_1 - \mu_2 \neq 0[/tex]

The test statistic is:

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

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, and s is the standard error .

a. State the decision rule.

0.04 significance level.

Two-tailed test(test if the means are different), so between the 0 + (4/2) = 2nd and the 100 - (4/2) = 98th percentile of the z-distribution, and looking at the z-table, we get that:

[tex]|z| < 2.054[/tex]: Do not reject the null hypothesis.

[tex]|z| > 2.054[/tex]: Reject the null hypothesis.

b. Compute the value of the test statistic.

0 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 0[/tex]

From the samples:

[tex]X = \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 101 - 99 = 2[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_1^2 + s_2^2} = \sqrt{0.51^2 + 0.495^2} = 0.71[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

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

[tex]z = \frac{2 - 0}{0.71}[/tex]

[tex]z = 2.81[/tex]

c. What is your decision regarding H0?

[tex]|z| = 2.81 > 2.054[/tex], which means that the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

d. What is the p-value?

Probability that the means differ by at least 2, either plus or minus, which is P(|z| > 2.81), which is 2 multiplied by the p-value of z = -2.81.

Looking at the z-table, z = -2.81 has a p-value of 0.0025.

2*0.0025 = 0.005

The p-value is 0.005.

Answer:

The minimum number of drivers you would need to survey is 601.

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 z-score that has a p-value 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 p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].  

What is the minimum number of drivers you would need to survey to be 95% confident that the population proportion is estimated to within 0.04?

The number is n for which M = 0.04.

We don't have an estimate for the proportion, so we use [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex]. Then

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

[tex]0.04 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.04\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.5}{0.04}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*0.5}{0.04})^2[/tex]
