In a random sample of 7 residents of the state of Maine, the mean waste recycled per person per day was 1.4 pounds with a standard deviation of 0.23 pounds.
a. Determine the 95% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Maine. Assume the population is approximately normal.
b. Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval.

Answers

Answer:

a) The 95% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Maine is between 1.19 and 1.61 pounds.

b) [tex]T_c = 2.4469[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that 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 = 7 - 1 = 6

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 6 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.4469, and the answer to question b is [tex]T_c = 2.4469[/tex]

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.4469\frac{0.23}{\sqrt{7}} = 0.21[/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 1.4 - 0.21 = 1.19 pounds.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 1.4 + 0.21 = 1.61 pounds.

The 95% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Maine is between 1.19 and 1.61 pounds.

For the function f(x) = x^2 + 4x -5 solve the following f(x)=0

Answers

That's a question about quadratic function.

Any quadratic function can be represented by the following form:

[tex]\boxed{f(x)=ax^2+bx+c}[/tex]

Example:

[tex]f(x)= -3x^2-9x+57[/tex] is a function where [tex]a=-3[/tex], [tex]b=-9[/tex] and [tex]c=57[/tex].

Okay, in our problem, we need to find the value of x when [tex]f(x)=0[/tex]. That's mean that the result of our function is equal to zero. Therefore, we have the quadratic equation below:

[tex]x^2+4x-5=0[/tex]

To solve a quadratic equation, we use the Bhaskara's formula. Do you remember the value of a, b and c? They going to be important right now. This is the Bhaskara's formula:

[tex]\boxed{x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} }[/tex]

So, let's see the values of a, b and c in our equation and apply them in the Bhaskara's formula:

In [tex]x^2+4x-5=0[/tex] equation, [tex]a=1[/tex], [tex]b=4[/tex] and [tex]c=-5[/tex]. Let's replace those values:

[tex]x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-4\pm \sqrt{4^2-4\times1\times(-5)} }{2\cdot1}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-4\pm \sqrt{16-(-20)} }{2}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-4\pm \sqrt{16 + 20)} }{2}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-4\pm \sqrt{36} }{2}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-4\pm 6 }{2}[/tex]

From now, we have two possibilities:

To add:

[tex]x_1 = \frac{-4+6}{2} \\x_1=\frac{2}{2} \\x_1=1[/tex]

To subtract:

[tex]x_2=\frac{-4-6}{2} \\x_2=\frac{-10}{2} \\x_2=-5[/tex]

Therefore, the result of our problem is: [tex]x_1 = 1[/tex] and [tex]x_2=-5[/tex].

Terry got 27 out of 50 for his Maths test. What is his mark as a percentage?

Answers

Answer:

54%

Step-by-step explanation:

Concepts:

A percent is a value indicating hundredth parts of any number. 1%/one percent would be equal to a hundredth part, and 100% would be the entire quantity.

Solving:

Let's solve this problem by going through the steps to find the percentage.

1. Find out the entire amount

Since Terry got 27/50 on his math test, we can assume he got 27 questions right out of 50 questions. This means, in total, there was 50 questions.

2. Divide the number you want expressed as a percent by the total quantity

The number we want in this question to be expressed as a percent is 27, and the total quantity is 50.27 ÷ 50 = 0.54

3. Multiply the resulting value by 100

The result we got when we divided 27 by 50 is 0.540.54 · 100 = 54

4. Add the percent symbol (%) at the end of the value

The value we got was the number 5454%

Therefore, Terry's marks as a percentage is 54%.

Find the measure of the missing angles.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

e = 61°, f = 119°, and d = 90°

We know that vertically opposite angles are equal.

So, e = 61° [Vertically opposite angles]

We know that linear pair of angles are supplementary (180°).

So, f + 61° = 180° [Linear pair of angles]

=> f = 180° - 61°

=> f = 119°

and d + 90° = 180° [Linear pair of angles]

=> d = 180° - 90°

=> d = 90°

If the mean age of the managers in company is 52 years with a standard deviation of 2.5 years, what is the probability that a randomly chosen manager will be between 54.5 and 57 years old

Answers

Answer:

13.5 %

Step-by-step explanation:

For a normal distribution, the Empirical Rule states that 68% of values lie between 1 standard deviation of the mean, 95% of values lie between 2 standard deviations of the mean, and 99.7% of values lie between 3 standard deviations of the mean. Here, we can see that 54.5 is 1 standard deviation away from the mean and 57 is 2 standard deviations away. This means that we want to find the difference between 1 and 2 standard deviations from the mean (in the positive direction)

To find the difference, we can simply find (percent of values 2 standard deviations of the mean) - (percent of values 1 standard deviation from the mean) = percent of values between 1 and 2 standard deviations from the mean

= 95-68 = 27 %

Finally, this gives us the percent of values between 1 and 2 standard deviations from the mean on both sides. We want to only find the positive aspect of this, as we don't care how many values are between 49.5 and 47 years old. Because normal distributions are symmetric, or equal on both sides of the mean, we can simply divide by 2 to eliminate the half we don't want, resulting in 27/2 = 13.5

The probability that a randomly chosen manager will be between 54.5 and 57 years old is 0.8413.

Given that, average age managers = 52 years standard deviation = 2.5 years.

What is standard deviation?

Standard deviation is the positive square root of the variance. Standard deviation is one of the basic methods of statistical analysis. Standard deviation is commonly abbreviated as SD and denoted by 'σ’ and it tells about the value that how much it has deviated from the mean value.

Considering the equation Z =  (X−μ)/σ

Where, X is the lower or higher value, as the case may be μ  is the average σ  is standard deviation

Now, z1= (54.5 - 52)/2.5

= 1

z2= (57 - 52)/2.5

= 2

Now, z2-z1= 2-1

= 1

P(54.5>Z<57)= 0.8413

Therefore, the probability that a randomly chosen manager will be between 54.5 and 57 years old is 0.8413.

find out the area of ​​the following composite figures​

Answers

Answer:

First composite: 30cm^2
Second composite: 18cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area for the first composite = l • w where l = length w = width

We will first need to break it into two pieces!

One piece can be a rectangle shape and another piece can be the square above the rectangle.

Solve for the area of the rectangle!

Area of the rectangle = L • 8

The length isn’t given but we see that the whole length is 5 and if we subtracted the length from the square we can actually get the missing length for the rectangle.

Length of the rectangle = (5 - 2)

Length of the rectangle = 3

Area of the rectangle = 3 • 8

Area of the rectangle = 24cm^2

Now solve for the area of the square!

Area = L • W

Area = 2 • 3

Area = 6

Finally add the area of the two shapes!

24 + 6 = 30cm^2
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Area for the second composite = L • W

Again, we’ll need to break it into two pieces. One piece would be the top rectangle, another piece would be the bottom rectangle.

Area for the top rectangle = 2 • 4

Area for the top rectangle = 8cm^2

Now solve for the area of the bottom rectangle!

Area for the bottom rectangle = 2 • 5

Area for the bottom rectangle = 10cm^2

Finally add the area of the two shapes!

8 + 10 = 18cm^2

What is square?

A quadrilateral with all sides equal and all angles are right angles.

Given that, a person takes 40 paces to cover 20 m of a square field according to him the field has a side that is 520 paces long, we need to find the measure of the side and the area,

Since,

40 paces = 20 m

1 pace = 1/2 m

Therefore,

520 paces = 0.5 x 520 m

= 260 m

Therefore, the square field is 260 m long,

Area of the square field = side² = 260²

= 67600 m²

Hence, the area of the square field is 67600 m² and the side is 260 m long.

Answers

Answer:

El capital que prestado al 10% bimestral durante 6 meses y 10 días produce un interés de $1140 es $3,600.

Step-by-step explanation:

Para determinar cuál es el capital que prestado al 10% bimestral durante 6 meses y 10 días produce un interés de $1140 se debe realizar el siguiente cálculo:

6 / 2 = 3

10/60 = 0.16666

10 x 3.1666 = 31.666

31.666 = 1140

100 = x

100 x 1140 / 31.666 = X

114,000 / 31.666 = X

3,600 = X

Por lo tanto, el capital que prestado al 10% bimestral durante 6 meses y 10 días produce un interés de $1140 es $3,600.
