The weights of adult polar bears, the largest bear species in North America, have a mean of 950 pounds and standard
deviation of 84 pounds. What is the weight of a polar bear that has a z-score for weight of -1.50?
Find the Z-table here.
O 126 pounds
O 824 pounds
948.5 pounds
O 951.5 pounds
O 1,076 pounds

Answers

Answer 1

The weight of 824 pounds of a polar bear has a z-score of -1.50.

The z score is used to determine by how many standard deviations the raw score is above or below the mean. The z score is given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma} \\\\where\ x=raw\ score,\mu=mean,\sigma=standard\ deviation[/tex]

Given that μ = 950, σ = 84

For z = -1.50:

[tex]-1.50=\frac{x-950}{84}\\\\x-950=-126\\\\x=824[/tex]

The weight of 824 pounds of a polar bear has a z-score of -1.50.

A car rental firm has 410 cars. Sixty-five of these cars have defective turn signals and 35 have defective tires. (Enter your probabilities as fractions.)
(a) What is the probability that one of these cars selected at random does not have defective turn signals?
(b) What is the probability that one of these cars selected at random has no defects if no car has 2 defects?

Answers

Answer:

(a)

Number of cars with defective turn signals = 65

Number of cars with no defective turn signals = 410 - 65 = 345

Required probability:

P = 345/410*100% ≈ 84.15%

(b)

Number of cars with defects = 65 + 35 = 100

Number of cars with no defects = 410 - 100 = 310

Required probability:

P = 310/410*100% ≈ 75.61%

What is the surface area of this figure in square centimeters?

A.96
B.75
C.84
D.60

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  A.  96

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area is the sum of the areas of the two triangular bases and the areas of the three rectangular lateral faces.

  A = 2(1/2)bh + PH

where b is the base of the triangle, h is its height, P is the perimeter of the triangle, and H is the height of the prism.

  A = (3 cm)(4 cm) +(3 +4 +5 cm)(7 cm) = 12 cm² +84 cm²

  A = 96 cm²

The surface area of the triangular prism is 96 square cm.

Find the formula for the geometric sequence 1, 5, 25, 125, .

Answers

The formula for a geometric sequence is an = a1 * r^n-1. For this problem, our formula can be an = 1 * 5^n-1. a1 is our first term, and r is the common ratio.

To check our formula, we can find the 5th term. a5 = 1 * 5^5-1. This gives us 625. If we look at our last term provided, the 4th term, 125 * 5 is 625.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Among various ethnic groups, the standard deviation of heights is known to be approximately three inches. We wish to construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean height of male Swedes. Forty-eight mile Swedes are surveyed. The sample mean is 71 inches. The sample standard deviation is 2.8 inches.

Required:
a. Calculate the error bound.
b. What will happen to the level of confidence obtained if 1,000 male Swedes are surveyed instead of 48? Why?

Answers

Answer:

a) The error bound of the confidence interval is of 0.66.

b) The confidence interval will be narrower.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

We have to find the margin of error. Considering that we have the standard deviation for the sample, the t-distribution is used.

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

df = 71 - 1 = 70

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 70 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 1.9944

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

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

For this problem, [tex]s = 2.8, n = 71[/tex]. So

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.9944\frac{2.8}{\sqrt{71}} = 0.66[/tex]

The error bound of the confidence interval is of 0.66.

b. What will happen to the level of confidence obtained if 1,000 male Swedes are surveyed instead of 48? Why?

The margin of error is inversely proportional to the square root of the sample size, so increasing the sample size leads to a smaller margin  of error and a narrower confidence interval.

suppose that 16% of crimes of this type end up in a criminal charge. this district has a false conviction rate of 5% (meaning the subject was charged but did not commit the crime) and fail to charge at a rate of 10% (meaning the person committed the crime but was not charged). if a randomly chosen suspect is charged, what is the chance that the suspect actually committed the crime

Answers

Answer:

0.9 = 90% probability that the suspect actually committed the crime.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

In this question:

Event A: Charged

Event B: Committed the crime.

16% of crimes of this type end up in a criminal charge.

This means that [tex]P(A) = 0.16[/tex]

Probability of being charged and committing the crime:

90% of 16%, so:

[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.9*0.16[/tex]

What is the chance that the suspect actually committed the crime?

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.9*0.16}{0.16} = 0.9[/tex]

0.9 = 90% probability that the suspect actually committed the crime.

Score,x = 65 50 55 65 55 70 65 70 55 70 50 55

Grade, y = 85 74 76 90 85 87 94 98 81 91 76 74

Using technology :

The CORREL function in excel, calculators will give accurate value of the correlation Coefficient between two variables, x and y. The correlation Coefficient obtained using technology is : 0.862

The correlation Coefficient value ranges between (-1 and 1) with values closer to either - 1 or 1 reflecting stronger relationship. A value of 0 means there is no relationship between the variables. Negative values indicate negative relationships while positive indicates positive association between the variables.

Therefore. With a correlation Coefficient of 0.862, the correlation Coefficient can be interpreted as meaning that ; there is a strong positive relationship between score and grade.

About 12.5% of restaurant bills are incorrect. If 200 bills are selected at ran- dom, find the probability that at least 22 will contain an error. Is this likely or unlikely to occur

Answers

Answer:

0.7734 = 77.34% probability that at least 22 will contain an error. Probability above 50%, which means that this is likely to occur.

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

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

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

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]

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

About 12.5% of restaurant bills are incorrect.

This means that [tex]p = 0.125[/tex]

200 bills are selected at random

This means that [tex]n = 200[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 200*0.125 = 25[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{200*0.125*0.875} = 4.677[/tex]

Find the probability that at least 22 will contain an error.

Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \geq 22 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 21.5)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 21.5. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{21.5 - 25}{4.677}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.75[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.75[/tex] has a p-value of 0.2266.

1 - 0.2266 = 0.7734

0.7734 = 77.34% probability that at least 22 will contain an error. Probability above 50%, which means that this is likely to occur.

Suppose that 25% of people own dogs If you pick three people at random, what
is the probability that they all three own a dog? (Let me add that we don’t know the
populations size so calculate the probability as if the population is infinite.)

Answers

Answer:

1/64

Step-by-step explanation:

25% own a dog, so picking one person has a probability of 1/4 (0.25) for that person to own a dog.

picking 3 people means combining (multiplying) the probabilities of the non-overlapping and non-depending events.

picking the third person has 1/4 chance of owning a dog (as the population is "infinite") combined with the chance that also the second pick owned a dog, which has to be combined with the chance of the first pick owning a dog.

so,

1/4 × 1/4 × 1/4 = 1/4³ = 1/64 = 0.015625

Which graph represents the function h(x)=x+0.5

Answers

Answer:

The correct graph of h(x) will be number 3 (c).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the function h(x) = |x| + 0.5

On putting x=0, in the function h(x), we get,  

h(0) = |0| + 0.5

h(0)=0 + 0.5

h(0)=0.5

Thus, the point (0,0.5) lie on the graph of h(x).

The graph that represents the function h(x) is graph (c)

How to determine the graph?

The equation is given as:

h(x) = |x| + 0.5

The above equation is an absolute value function

An absolute value function is represented as:

h(x) = a|x + h| + k

Where:

Vertex = (h,k)

By comparing h(x) = a|x + h| + k and h(x) = |x| + 0.5, we have:

h = 0 and k = 0.5

So, the vertex is (0,0.5)

The graph that has a vertex of (0,0.5) is graph (c)

Hence, the graph that represents the function h(x) is graph (c)
