What’s the correct answer for this question?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

The distribution of X is Normal Distribution with mean [tex]= \mu =17[/tex] and Variance [tex]= \sigma^{2} = 16 \ i.e., X \sim N (17, 16),[/tex]

(b)

The distribution of [tex]\bar{x}[/tex] is Normal Distribution with mean [tex]= \mu =17[/tex] and Variance = [tex]\sigma^{2}/n = 16/15= 1.0667[/tex].i.e., [tex]\bar{x}\sim N(17,1.0667)[/tex]

c)

To find P(15.5 < X < 18):

Case 1: For X from 15.5 to mid value:

Z = (15.5 - 17)/4 = - 0.375

Table of Area Under Standard Normal Curve gives area = 0.1480

Case 2: For X from mid value to 18:

Z = (18 - 17)/4 = 0.25

Table of Area Under Standard Normal Curve gives area = 0.0987

So,

P(15.5 < X< 18) = 0.1480 +0.0987 = 0.2467

So,

Answer is:

0.2467

(d)

[tex]SE = \sigma/\sqrt{n}\\\\= 4/\sqrt{15}[/tex]

= 1.0328

To find [tex]P(15.5 < \bar{x}< 18):[/tex]

Case 1: For [tex]\bar{x}[/tex] from 15.5 to mid value:

Z = (15.5 - 17)/1.0328 = - 1.4524

Table of Area Under Standard Normal Curve gives area = 0.4265

Case 2: For X from mid value to 18:

Z = (18 - 17)/1.0328 = 0.9682

Table of Area Under Standard Normal Curve gives area = 0.3340

So,

[tex]P(15.5 < \bar{x}< 18) = 0.4265 + 0.3340 = 0.7605[/tex]

So,

because Population SD is provided.

(f)

(i)

Q1 is given by:

[tex]- 0.6745 = (\bar{x} - 17)/1.0328[/tex]

So,

X = 17 - (0.6745 * 1.0328) = 17 - 0.6966 = 16.3034

So,

Q1 = 16.3034

(ii)

Q3 is given by:

[tex]0.6745 = (\bar{x} - 17)/1.0328[/tex]

So,

X = 17 + (0.6745 * 1.0328) = 17 + 0.6966 = 17.6966

So,

Q3= 17.6966

(iii)

IQR = Q3 - Q1 = 17.6966 - 16.3034 = 1.3932

So

Answer:

Height of the Dom is 112.18 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

The tallest church tower in the Netherlands is the Dom Tower in Utrecht. The angle of elevation to the top of the tower is 77° when 25.9 m from the base. It is required to find the height of the Dom Tower. Let its height is h. So, using trigonometric formula to find it as :

[tex]\tan\theta=\dfrac{h}{b}\\\\\tan(77)=\dfrac{h}{25.9}\\\\h=\tan(77)\times 25.9\\\\h=112.18\ m[/tex]

So, the height of the Dom is 112.18 m.

Answer:

a. [tex]f_X(x) = \dfrac{1}{3.5}8.5<x<12[/tex]

b. the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less is 0.4286 which is about 42.86%

c.  the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be at least 11 hours is 0.2857 which is about 28.57 %

d. the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be between 9.5 and 11.5 hours is 0.5714 which is about 57.14%

e.  86 should have a battery life of at least 9 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

Let  X represent the continuous random variable with uniform distribution U (A, B) . Therefore the probability  density function can now be determined as :

[tex]f_X(x) = \dfrac{1}{B-A}A<x<B[/tex]

where A and B  are the two parameters of the uniform distribution

From the question;

Assume that battery life of the iPad Mini is uniformly distributed between 8.5 and 12 hours

So; Let A = 8,5 and B = 12

Therefore; the mathematical expression for the probability density function of battery life is :

[tex]f_X(x) = \dfrac{1}{12-8.5}8.5<x<12[/tex]

[tex]f_X(x) = \dfrac{1}{3.5}8.5<x<12[/tex]

b. What is the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less (to 4 decimals)?

The  probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less can be calculated as:

F(x) = P(X ≤x)

[tex]F(x) = \dfrac{x-A}{B-A}[/tex]

[tex]F(10) = \dfrac{10-8.5}{12-8.5}[/tex]

F(10) = 0.4286

the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less is 0.4286 which is about 42.86%

c. What is the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be at least 11 hours (to 4 decimals)?

The battery life for an iPad Mini will be at least 11 hours is calculated as follows:

[tex]P(X\geq11) = \int\limits^{12}_{11} {\dfrac{1}{3.5}} \, dx[/tex]

[tex]P(X\geq11) = {\dfrac{1}{3.5}} (x)^{12}_{11}[/tex]

[tex]P(X\geq11) = {\dfrac{1}{3.5}} (12-11)[/tex]

[tex]P(X\geq11) = {\dfrac{1}{3.5}} (1)[/tex]

[tex]P(X\geq11) = 0.2857[/tex]

the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be at least 11 hours is 0.2857 which is about 28.57 %

d. What is the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be between 9.5 and 11.5 hours (to 4 decimals)?

[tex]P(9.5 \leq X\leq11.5) =\int\limits^{11.5}_{9.5} {\dfrac{1}{3.5}} \, dx[/tex]

[tex]P(9.5 \leq X\leq11.5) ={\dfrac{1}{3.5}} \, (x)^{11.5}_{9.5}[/tex]

[tex]P(9.5 \leq X\leq11.5) ={\dfrac{1}{3.5}} (11.5-9.5)[/tex]

[tex]P(9.5 \leq X\leq11.5) ={\dfrac{1}{3.5}} (2)[/tex]

[tex]P(9.5 \leq X\leq11.5) =0.2857* (2)[/tex]

[tex]P(9.5 \leq X\leq11.5) =0.5714[/tex]

Hence; the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be between 9.5 and 11.5 hours is 0.5714 which is about 57.14%

e. In a shipment of 100 iPad Minis, how many should have a battery life of at least 9 hours (to nearest whole value)?

The probability that battery life of at least 9 hours is calculated as:

[tex]P(X \geq 9) = \int\limits^{12}_{9} {\dfrac{1}{3.5}} \, dx[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 9) = {\dfrac{1}{3.5}}(x)^{12}_{9}[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 9) = {\dfrac{1}{3.5}}(12-9)[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 9) = {\dfrac{1}{3.5}}(3)[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 9) = 0.2857*}(3)[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 9) = 0.8571[/tex]

NOW; The Number of iPad  that should have a battery life of at least 9 hours is calculated as:

n = 100(0.8571)

n = 85.71

n ≅ 86

Thus , 86 should have a battery life of at least 9 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

A group of professors investigated first-year college students' knowledge of astronomy. One concept of interest was the Big Bang theory of the creation of the universe. In a sample of 149 freshmen students, 32 believed that the Big Bang theory accurately described the creation of planetary systems. Based on this information, is it correct at the alpha = 0.01 level of significance to state that more than 20% of all freshmen college students believe the Big Bang theory describes the creation of planetary systems? State the null and alternative hypotheses. Choose the correct answer below. H_0: p = 0.20 H_a: p not equal to 0.20 H_0: p not equal to 0.20 H_a: p = 0.20 H_0: p = 0.20 H_a: p 0.20 If alpha = 0.05, find the rejection region for the test. Choose the correct answer below. z > 1.645 z > 1.96 z

Solution:

We would set up the null and alternative hypothesis. The correct options are

For null hypothesis,

p ≥ 0.2

For alternative hypothesis,

p < 0.2

This is a left tailed test.

Considering the population proportion, probability of success, p = 0.2

q = probability of failure = 1 - p

q = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8

Considering the sample,

Sample proportion, P = x/n

Where

x = number of success = 32

n = number of samples = 149

P = 32/149 = 0.21

We would determine the test statistic which is the z score

z = (P - p)/√pq/n

z = (0.21 - 0.2)/√(0.2 × 0.8)/149 = 0.31

The calculated test statistic is 0.31 for the right tail and - 0.31 for the left tail

Since α = 0.05, the critical value is determined from the normal distribution table.

For the left, α/2 = 0.05/2 = 0.025

The z score for an area to the left of 0.025 is - 1.96

For the right, α/2 = 1 - 0.025 = 0.975

The z score for an area to the right of 0.975 is 1.96

In order to reject the null hypothesis, the test statistic must be smaller than - 1.96 or greater than 1.96

Therefore, the rejection region is z > 1.96

Answer:

1.54

Margin of error M.E = 1.54

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

Standard deviation r = 1.93

Number of samples n = 6

Confidence interval = 95%

z(at 95% confidence) = 1.96

Substituting the values we have;

M.E = (1.96×1.93/√6) = 1.544321633166

M.E = 1.54 (to 2 decimal place)

Margin of error M.E = 1.54

Answer:

  Exponential; $376.32

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally, an increase of 12% in a month means the prices are 12% more than they were in the previous month. That is, the value has been multiplied by 1.12.

The same would be true for the second month, so the overall multiplier for the two months is ...

  (1.12)(1.12) = 1.12^2 = 1.2544

This makes the food bill for the second month amount to ...

  1.2544 × $300 = $376.32

_____

As with all percentages, you need to be clear about what base is being used. Here, we have assumed the base for a monthly increase is the value at the beginning of the month.

If, instead, it is the value at the beginning of the year, then the increase is linear, not exponential. 12% of the value at the beginning of the year is the same throughout the year.

Answer:

a=6

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the value of a you need to simplify the equation first. so...

3(a+3)-6=21 (you remove the bracket first)

3a+9-6=21

3a+3=21 (you collect the like terms then)

3a=21-3

3a=18 (then you both divide both sides by 3 to find the value of a)

a=18/3

a=6

to check your answer substitute 3 instead of a

3(a+3)-6=21

3(6+3)-6=21

3(9)-6=21 (according to BODMAS since multiplication comes first you multiply 3 with 9 before subtracting it from 6.)

29-6=21

21=21

Answer:6

Step-by-step explanation:

3(a + 3) - 6 = 21

3(a + 3) = 21 + 6

3(a + 3) =27

a + 3. = 27 ÷ 3

a + 3. = 9

a. = 9 - 3

a. = 6

Answer:

a) 56.82

b) 64

c) there is no mode

d) 57

e) the jersey numbers are nominal data and they do not measure or count anything, so the resulting statistic are meaningless

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing is to organize the data from least to greatest:

15 24 29 38 41 64 72 74 76 93 99

a) the mean would be the average of the data, thus:

m = (15 + 24 + 29 + 38 + 41 + 64 + 72 + 74 + 76 + 93 + 99) / 11

m = 56.82

b) the median is the data of half, when the data is organized, in this case the value of half would be the sixth data that is 64.

c) the mode is the value that is most repeated, therefore as none is repeated there is no mode.

d) the midrange is the average between the minimum value and the maximum value:

mr = (15 + 99) / 2

mr = 57

e) the jersey numbers are nominal data and they do not measure or count anything, so the resulting statistic are meaningless

Answer:

8.7 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of the ramp is attached below.

Volume of a Triangular Prism = Base Area X Width

From the diagram:

Base of the triangle = 6 ft

Height of the Triangle = 12 ft

Therefore:

Base Area of the Prism [tex]=\frac{1}{2}X 12X6=36$ ft^2[/tex]

From the diagram, Width of the ramp =x

Given that the volume of the ramp is 313.2 cubic feet.

Therefore, substituting into the formula for Volume of a Triangular Prism

[tex]313.2=36 X x\\x= 313.2 \div 36\\$Width of the ramp, x=8.7 ft[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

One plane has a speed of 450 km/h and the other has a speed of 900 km/h.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to say that:

The speed of the first plane is x.

The speed of the second plane is y.

One plane is flying at twice the speed of the other.

I will say that y = 2x. We could also say that x = 2y.

Two airplanes leave an airport at the same time, flying in the same direction

They fly in the same direction, so their relative speed(difference) at the end of each hour is y - x = 2x - x = x.

If after 4 hours they are 1800 km apart, find the speed of each plane

After 1 hour, they will be x km apart. After 4, 1800. So

1 hour - x km apart

4 hours - 1800 km apart

4x = 1800

x = 1800/4

x = 450

2x = 2*450 = 900

One plane has a speed of 450 km/h and the other has a speed of 900 km/h.

Answer:

[tex]z=\frac{0.276 -0.3}{\sqrt{\frac{0.3(1-0.3)}{735}}}=-1.42[/tex]  

Now we can claculate the p value with this formula:

[tex]p_v =P(z<-1.42)=0.0778[/tex]  

If we use a signifiacn level of 5% we see that the p value is higher than 0.05 so then we have enough evidence to fail to reject the null hypothesis and we can't conclude that the true proportion is significantly higher than 0.3 at 5% of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Information to given

n=735 represent the random sample taken

X=203 represent the number of people who have their prostate regularly examined

[tex]\hat p=\frac{203}{735}=0.276[/tex] estimated proportion of people who have their prostate regularly examined  

[tex]p_o=0.3[/tex] is the value to verify

z would represent the statistic

[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value

System of hypothesis

We want to test if the true proportion is less than 0.3, the ystem of hypothesis are.:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]p \geq 0.3[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]p < 0.3[/tex]  

The statistic is given by:

[tex]z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}[/tex] (1)  

Replacing the info we got:

[tex]z=\frac{0.276 -0.3}{\sqrt{\frac{0.3(1-0.3)}{735}}}=-1.42[/tex]  

Now we can claculate the p value with this formula:

[tex]p_v =P(z<-1.42)=0.0778[/tex]  

If we use a signifiacn level of 5% we see that the p value is higher than 0.05 so then we have enough evidence to fail to reject the null hypothesis and we can't conclude that the true proportion is significantly higher than 0.3 at 5% of significance.

We are given the slope of -3 and the point of (1,-5).

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\rightarrow y+5=-3(x-1)[/tex]

Convert into Slope-Intercept Form:

[tex]y+5=-3(x-1)\\y+5-5=-3(x-1)-5\\\boxed{y=-3x-2}[/tex]

Answer:

118 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

1 m = 100 cm

1 m = 1000 mm

1.18 m = 118 cm = 1180 mm

11.8 mm   ----> too small

118 cm   ----> just right

1.8 m    ----> too big

11.18 mm    ----> too small

Where the above dimensions are given, the suitable guitar case for Liam would be the one that is 1.8 m long.

Since Liam's guitar case needs to be 1.18 m long, we need to select the option that is closest in length without exceeding it.

Among the given options, 11.8 mm and 11.18 mm are too small, and 118 cm is equal to 1.18 m, which exceeds the required length.

Hence , the only suitable option is 1.8 m, which matches Liam's requirement of a guitar case with a length of 1.18 m.

Answer:

d = 48 h

Step-by-step explanation:

Lamar's distance traveled is directly proportional to the number of hours be drove.

So distance (d) ∝ hours (h)

Lamar traveled 288 miles in 6 hours

Since d ∝ h

then d = kh    [ where k is the proportionality constant ]

if     288 = k × 6

k =  =288/48

Therefore, equation will be d = 48 h will be the equation

                 (n = 1) ∑^∞  [tex][ \frac{1}{2n}][/tex]    .... The comparative series ( ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] )

- Both series  ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] and ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] are positive series. You can check by plugging various real number for ( n ) in both series.

- Compute the limit:

                 Lim ( n-> ∞ )  [tex][ \frac{n^2 + 1}{2n^3 - 1} * 2n ] = [ \frac{2n^3 + 2n}{2n^3 - 1} ][/tex]

                 Lim ( n-> ∞ )    [tex][ \frac{2n^3 ( 1 + \frac{1}{n^2} ) }{2n^3 ( 1 - \frac{1}{2n^3} ) } ] = [ \frac{ 1 + \frac{1}{n^2} }{ 1 - \frac{1}{2n^3} } ][/tex]

- Apply the limit ( n - > ∞ ):

                Lim ( n-> ∞ )  [tex][ \frac{a_n}{b_n} ][/tex]  = [tex][ \frac{1 + 0}{1 + 0} ][/tex] = 1   ... Finite

- So from first condition both series either converge or diverge.

- We check for ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] convergence or divergence.

- The ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] = ( 1 / 2n ) resembles harmonic series ∑ ( 1 / n ) which diverges by p-series test ∑ ( [tex]\frac{1}{n^p}[/tex] ) where p = 1 ≤ 1. Hence, ∑

- In combination of limit test and the divergence of ∑[tex]b_n[/tex], the series ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] given also diverges.

Answer: Diverges    

b)          

The given series ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] is:

                   (n = 1) ∑^∞  [tex][ \frac{n}{n^\frac{5}{2} +5} ][/tex]

- We will make an educated guess on the comparative series  ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] by the following procedure.

                  (n = 1) ∑^∞   [tex][ \frac{n( 1 )}{n ( n^\frac{3}{2} + \frac{5}{n} ) } ] = [\frac{1}{( n^\frac{3}{2} + \frac{5}{n} )} ][/tex]

- Apply the limit ( n - > ∞ ) in the denominator for  ( 5 / n ), only the dominant term n^(3/2) is left:

                  (n = 1) ∑^∞    [tex][ \frac{1}{n^\frac{3}{2} } ][/tex] .... The comparative series ( ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] )

- Both series  ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] and ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] are positive series. You can check by plugging various real number for ( n ) in both series.

- Compute the limit:

                 Lim ( n-> ∞ )   [tex][ \frac{n}{n^\frac{5}{2} +5} * n^\frac{3}{2} ] = [ \frac{n^\frac{5}{2}}{n^\frac{5}{2} +5} ][/tex]

                 Lim ( n-> ∞ )    [tex][ \frac{n^\frac{5}{2}}{n^\frac{5}{2} ( 1 + \frac{5}{n^\frac{5}{2}}) } ] = [ \frac{1}{1 + \frac{5}{n^\frac{5}{2}} } ][/tex]

- Apply the limit ( n - > ∞ ):

                Lim ( n-> ∞ )  [tex][ \frac{a_n}{b_n} ][/tex]  = [tex][\frac{1}{1 + 0}][/tex] = 1   ... Finite

- So from first condition both series either converge or diverge.

- We check for ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] convergence or divergence.

- The ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] = ( [tex][ \frac{1}{n^\frac{3}{2} } ][/tex] ) converges by p-series test ∑ ( [tex]\frac{1}{n^p}[/tex] ) where p = 3/2 > 1. Hence, ∑

- In combination of limit test and the divergence of ∑[tex]b_n[/tex], the series ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] given also converges.

Answer: converges

Comparison Test:-  

- Given, ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] and suppose ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] such that both series are positive for all values of ( n ).

-Then the following conditions are applied:

1 ) If ( [tex]a_n[/tex] - [tex]b_n[/tex] ) < 0 , then ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] diverges only if ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] diverges

2 ) If ( [tex]a_n[/tex] - [tex]b_n[/tex] ) ≤ 0 , then ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] converges only if ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] converges

c) The given series ∑[tex]a_n[/tex] is:

                   (n = 1) ∑^∞ [tex][ \frac{4 + 3^2}{2^n} ][/tex]

- We will make an educated guess on the comparative series  ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] by the following procedure.

                  (n = 1) ∑^∞ [tex][ \frac{3^n ( \frac{4}{3^n} + 1 )}{2^n} ][/tex]

- Apply the limit ( n - > ∞ ) in the numerator for  ( 4 / 3^n ), only the dominant terms ( 3^n ) and ( 2^n ) are left:  

                 (n = 1) ∑^∞ [tex][ \frac{3^n}{2^n} ][/tex]   ... The comparative series ( ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] )

- Compute the difference between sequences ( [tex]a_n[/tex] - [tex]b_n[/tex] ):

                 [tex]a_n - b_n = \frac{4 + 3^n}{2^n} - [ \frac{3^n}{2^n} ] \\\\a_n - b_n = \frac{4 }{2^n} \geq 0[/tex], for all values of ( n )

- Check for divergence of the comparative series ( ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] ), using divergence test:

               ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] = (n = 1) ∑^∞ [tex][ \frac{3^n}{2^n} ][/tex]  diverges

- The first condition is applied when  ( [tex]a_n[/tex] - [tex]b_n[/tex] ) ≥ 0, then ∑diverges only if ∑[tex]b_n[/tex] diverges.
