An office building loses a third of its heat between sundown and midnight and an additional half of the original amount of heat between midnight and 4 AM. If five-eighths of the remaining heat is lost between 4 AM and 5 AM, what proportion of the total heat loss occurs between 5 AM and sunrise?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\dfrac{1}{16}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion of Heat Loss Between sundown and midnight[tex]=\dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]

Proportion of Heat Loss between midnight and 4 AM  [tex]=\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

Proportion of Total Heat Already Lost [tex]=\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{2} =\dfrac{5}{6}[/tex]

Proportion of Remaining Heat [tex]=1-\dfrac{5}{6}=\dfrac{1}{6}[/tex]

Between 4 AM and 5 AM, five-eighths of the remaining heat is lost.

Proportion of Heat Loss between 4 AM and 5 AM= [tex]\dfrac{5}{8}$ X \dfrac{1}{6} = \dfrac{5}{48}[/tex]

Therefore, Proportion of Remaining Heat Left [tex]=\dfrac{1}{6}- \dfrac{5}{48}=\dfrac{1}{16}[/tex]

We therefore say that:

[tex]\dfrac{1}{16}$ of the total heat loss occurs between 5 AM and sunrise.[/tex]

Which validity is weak in this example?

a. internal validity
b. external validity
c. statistical validity
d. construct validity

Answers

Answer:

b. external validity

Step-by-step explanation:

External Validity is the applicability of the results of an experiment to the real world. Most times, there are threats to the validity of an experiment which could result in little or no effect on the general population. For example, if the method of selection reflects a measure of bias, then this could affect the result. Also if the participants are taking different aspects of the same test, it could also affect its validity as they may not be able to make a correct conclusion. If the sample size is not reflective of the entire population, it could also pose a threat to the validity of the experiment.

John's experiment is weak in its external validity because it cannot be generalized to the entire population of customers. He has to identify the threats to the validity of his experiment and correct them. For example, the sample selection may be biased.

An article suggests the uniform distribution on the interval (6.5, 19) as a model for depth (cm) of the bioturbation layer in sediment in a certain region.(a) What are the mean and variance of depth

Answers

Answer:

The mean of depth is 12.75cm.

The variance of depth is of 13.02 cm².

Step-by-step explanation:

An uniform probability is a case of probability in which each outcome is equally as likely.

For this situation, we have a lower limit of the distribution that we call a and an upper limit that we call b.

The mean of the uniform distribution is:

[tex]M = \frac{a+b}{2}[/tex]

The variance of the uniform distribution is given by:

[tex]V = \frac{(b-a)^{2}}{12}[/tex]

Uniform distribution on the interval (6.5, 19)

This means that: [tex]a = 6.5, b = 19[/tex]

So

Mean:

[tex]M = \frac{6.5+19}{2} = 12.75[/tex]

The mean of depth is 12.75cm.

Variance:

[tex]V = \frac{(19 - 6.5)^{2}}{12} = 13.02[/tex]

The variance of depth is of 13.02 cm².

4. The 92 million Americans of age 50 and over control 50% of all discretionary income. AARP estimates that the average annual expenditure on restaurants and carryout food was $1,873 for individuals in the age group. Suppose this estimate is based on a sample of 80 persons and that the sample standard deviation is $550. a. At 95% confidence, what is the margin of error

Answers

Answer:

$120.52

Margin of error M.E = $120.52

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

x+/-M.E

Where M.E = margin of error

M.E = zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = $1,873

Standard deviation r = $550

Number of samples n = 80

Confidence interval = 95%

z(at 95% confidence) = 1.96

Substituting the values we have;

M.E = (1.96 × $550/√80) = 120.5240639872

M.E = $120.52

Margin of error M.E = $120.52

Answer:

B. F(x) = 3(x - 2)² - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

→The function F(x) narrowed, meaning the absolute value being multiplied to the function is greater than 1.

→The function F(x) flipped over the x-axis, this means that the number being multiplied has to be a negative.

→The function F(x) shifted to the left 2 units, this means there needs to be a 2 being added.

→The function F(x) shifted downwards 2 units, meaning there needs to be a 2 being subtracted from the whole function.

This gives us the correct answer of "B. F(x) = 3(x - 2)² - 2."

2. CTfastrak bus waiting times are uniformly distributed from zero to 20 minutes. Find the probability that a randomly selected passenger will wait the following times for a CTfastrak bus. b. Between 5 and 10 minutes. c. Exactly 7.5922 minutes. d. Exactly 5 minutes. e. Between 15 and 25 minutes.

Answers

Answer:

b. 0.25

c. 0.05

d. 0.05

e. 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

if the waiting time x follows a uniformly distribution from zero to 20, the probability that a passenger waits exactly x minutes P(x) can be calculated as:

[tex]P(x)=\frac{1}{b-a}=\frac{1}{20-0} =0.05[/tex]

Where a and b are the limits of the distribution and x is a value between a and b. Additionally the probability that a passenger waits x minutes or less P(X<x) is equal to:

[tex]P(X<x)=\frac{x-a}{b-a}=\frac{x-0}{20-0}=\frac{x}{20}[/tex]

Then, the probability that a randomly selected passenger will wait:

b. Between 5 and 10 minutes.

[tex]P(5<x<10) = P(x<10) - P(x<5)\\P(5<x<10) = \frac{10}{20} -\frac{5}{20}=0.25[/tex]

c. Exactly 7.5922 minutes

[tex]P(7.5922)=0.05[/tex]

d. Exactly 5 minutes

[tex]P(5)=0.05[/tex]

e. Between 15 and 25 minutes, taking into account that 25 is bigger than 20, the probability that a passenger will wait between 15 and 25 minutes is equal to the probability that a passenger will wait between 15 and 20 minutes. So:

[tex]P(15<x<25)=P(15<x<20) \\P(15<x<20)=P(x<20) - P(x<15)\\P(15<x<20) = \frac{20}{20} -\frac{15}{20}=0.25[/tex]

An icicle it's in the shape of an inverted cone with a diameter of 12 m m and a height of 100 mm. How much Frozen water is in the icicle? Round to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

3768 mm ^ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the volume of a cone is given by:

V = 1/3 * Ac * h

Where Ac is the area of the circle, we know that the radius is half the diameter then:

r = d / 2

r = 12/2

r = 6

And Ac is equal to:

Ac = pi * r ^ 2

replacing:

Ac = 3.14 * 6 ^ 2

Ac = 113.04

113.04 mm ^ 2 is the area of the circle, replacing the volume form knowing that h = 100

V = 1/3 * 113.04 * 100

V = 3768

Therefore they fit a total of 3768 mm ^ 3

What is the answer for this one ?

4x+3y=20 2x+y=7

Answers

Answer:

x = 1/2 , y = 6

Explanation:

Step 1 - Align the equations and multiply the second row by 2

4x + 3y = 20

2x + y = 7

4x + 3y = 20

4x + 2y = 14

Step 2 - Subtract them both

4x + 3y = 20

4x + 2y = 14

y = 6

So, y = 6

Step 3 - Substitute y into the first equation

4x + 3y = 20

4x + 3(6) = 20

4x + 18 = 20

Step 4 - Subtract 18 from both sides

4x + 18 = 20

4x + 18 - 18 = 20 - 18

4x = 2

Step 5 - Divide both sides by 4

4x = 2

4x / 4 = 2 / 4

x = 2/4

So, x = 1/2

Bonnie volunteers to bring bags of candy to her child's class for the Halloween party. She buys a bag containing 240, a bag containing 624, and a bag containing 336 pieces. Age needs to use all the candy to create identical treat bags. How many treat bags can bonnie make so that each one has the same number and variety of candy? How many of each type of candy will be in each bag?

Answers

Answer:

Number of bags that Bonnie can make so that each one has the same number of candies = 48

Number of candies from bag I in each of the treat bag = 5

Number of candies from bag II in each of the treat bag = 13

Number of candies from bag III in each of the treat bag = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: One bag (I) has 240 candies, one bag (II) has 624 candies and one bag (III) has 336 candies

To find: Number of bags that Bonnie can make so that each one has the same number of candies and number of each type of candies in each bag

Solution:

[tex]240=2^4\times 3\times 5\\624=2^4\times3\times13\\336=2^4\times3\times7[/tex]

Highest common factor (H.C.F) = [tex]2^4\times3=48[/tex]

So,

Number of bags that bonnie can make so that each one has the same number of candies = 48

Now,

[tex]\frac{240}{48}=5\\ \frac{240}{48}=13\\\frac{240}{48}=7[/tex]

Number of candies from bag I in each of the treat bag = 5

Number of candies from bag II in each of the treat bag = 13

Number of candies from bag III in each of the treat bag = 7
