Answer:
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
A = (5,2), B = (2,4), C = (6,7) and D = (9,5) What is the length of the shorter diagonal of parallelogram ABCD?
Answer:
[tex] AC = \sqrt(26) \approx 5.1 [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonals are AC and BD.
Now we find the lengths of the diagonals using the distance formula.
[tex] d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2} [/tex]
AC:
[tex] AC = \sqrt{(6 - 5)^2 + (7 - 2)^2} [/tex]
[tex] AC = \sqrt{(1)^2 + (5)^2} [/tex]
[tex] AC = \sqrt{1 + 25} [/tex]
[tex] AC = \sqrt{26} [/tex]
BD:
[tex] BD = \sqrt{(9 - 2)^2 + (5 - 4)^2} [/tex]
[tex] BD = \sqrt{(7)^2 + (1)^2} [/tex]
[tex] BD = \sqrt{49 + 1} [/tex]
[tex] BD = \sqrt{50} [/tex]
Since sqrt(26) < sqrt(50), then the shorter diagonal is AC.
Answer: AC = sqrt(26) or approximately 5.1
Answer:
A = (5.2)
Step-by-step explanation:
c2= (6-5)^2 + (7-2)^2
To find AC we calculate within parenthesis (6-5) : 1
c2= 1 + (7-2)^2
calculate within parenthesis (7-2) : 5
c2 = 1^2 + 5^2
then calculate exponents 1^2:1
c^2 = 1+5^2
add and subtract left to right
c^2 = 1+25
c^2 =26
Sr of 26 = 5.09901951359
Which means the closest answer is A = 5.2
To find BD we calculate within parenthesis (9-2):7
c2= (9-2)^2 + (5 - 4)^2
calculate within parenthesis (5-4) : 1
c2 = (7)^2 + (1)^2
calculate exponents 1 ^2 : 1
c2 = 49 +1
add and subtract left to right
c2 = 50
Sr of 50 = 7.07106781187
An option to buy a stock is priced at $150. If the stock closes above 30 next Thursday, the option will be worth $1000. If it closes below 20, the option will be worth nothing, and if it closes between 20 and 30, the option will be worth $200. A trader thinks there is a 50% chance that the stock will close in the 20-30 range, a 20% chance that it will close above 30, and a 30% chance that it will fall below 20.
Required:
a. Create a valid probability table.
b. How much should the trader expect to gain or lose?
c. Should the trader buy the stock? Explain.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
An option to buy a stock is priced at $150. If the stock closes above 30 next Thursday, the option will be worth $1000. If it closes below 20, the option will be worth nothing, and if it closes between 20 and 30, the option will be worth $200. A trader thinks there is a 50% chance that the stock will close in the 20-30 range, a 20% chance that it will close above 30, and a 30% chance that it will fall below 20.
a) Let X represent the price of the option
x P(X=x)
$1000 20/100 = 0.2
$200 50/100 = 0.5
$0 30/100 = 0.3
b) Expected option price
[tex]= \sum x.P(X=x)\\\\ = 1000 * 0.2 + 200 * 0.5 + 0 = \$ 300[/tex]
Therefore expected gain = $300 - $150 = $150
c) The trader should buy the stock. Since there is an positive expected gain($150) in trading that stock option.

A 45 gram sample of a substance that's used to preserve fruit and vegetables has a k-value of 0.1088
Answer:
The substance's half-life is 6.4 days
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that the half life of a substance is given by the time it takes for the substance to reduce to half of its initial amount. So in this case, where they give you the constant k (0.1088) in the exponential form:
[tex]N=N_0\,e^{-k\,*\,t}[/tex]
we can replace k by its value, and solve for the time "t" needed for the initial amount [tex]N_0[/tex] to reduce to half of its value ([tex]N_0/2[/tex]). Since the unknown resides in the exponent, to solve the equation we need to apply the natural logarithm:
[tex]N=N_0\,e^{-k\,*\,t}\\\frac{N_0}{2} =N_0\,e^{-0.1088\,*\,t}\\\frac{N_0}{2\,*N_0} =e^{-0.1088\,*\,t}\\\frac{1}{2} =e^{-0.1088\,*\,t}\\ln(\frac{1}{2} )=-0.1088\,t\\t=\frac{ln(\frac{1}{2} )}{-0.1088} \\t=6.37\,\,days[/tex]
which rounded to the nearest tenth is: 6.4 days

Consider the following data representing the price of laptop computers (in dollars). 12041204, 12061206, 13451345, 13061306, 12071207, 10781078, 13571357, 12321232, 12281228, 13021302, 11891189, 11771177, 10831083, 10941094, 13261326, 10711071, 14271427, 13481348, 14201420, 12531253, 1270 Determine the frequency of the fifth class.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The given data is expressed as
1204, 1206, 1345, 1306, 1207, 1078, 1357, 1232, 1228, 1302, 1189, 1177, 1083, 1094, 1326, 1071, 1427, 1348, 1420, 1253, 1270
The number of items in the data, n is 21. The lowest value is 1071 while the highest value is 1427. The convenient starting point would be 1070.5 and the convenient ending point would be 1427.5
The number of class intervals is
√n = √21 = 4.5
Approximately 5
The width of each class interval is
(1427.5 - 1070.5)/5 = 72
The end of each class interval would be
1070.5 + 72 = 1142.5
1142.5 + 72 = 1214.5
1214.5 + 72 = 1286.5
1286.5 + 72 = 1358.5
1358.5 + 72 = 1430.5
The frequency for the fifth class, that is between 1358.5 to 1430.5 would be 2

A state end-of-grade exam in American History is a multiple-choice test that has 50 questions with 4 answer choices for each question. A student must get at least 25 correct to pass the test, and the questions are very difficult. Question 1. If a student guesses on every question, what is the probability the student will pass
Answer:
0.004% probability the student will pass
Step-by-step explanation:
I am going to use the normal approximation to the binomial to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
Probability of exactly x sucesses 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 samples can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, 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].
In this problem, we have that:
[tex]n = 50, p = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]
So
[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 50*0.25 = 12.5[/tex]
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{50*0.25*0.75} = 3.06[/tex]
If a student guesses on every question, what is the probability the student will pass
Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \geq 25 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 24.5)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 24.5. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{24.5 - 12.5}{3.06}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 3.92[/tex]
[tex]Z = 3.92[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.99996
1 - 0.99996 = 0.00004
0.004% probability the student will pass

1. O perímetro de um quadrado é 20 cm. Determine sua diagonal. 1 ponto a) 2 √5 cm b) 20√2 cm c) 5√2 cm d) 2√10 cm
Answer:
c) 5√2 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
A square with side length l has a perimeter given by the following equation:
P = 4l.
In this question:
P = 20
So the side length is:
4l = 20
l = 20/4
l = 5
Diagonal
The diagonal forms a right triangle with two sides, in which the diagonal is the hypothenuse. Applying the pytagoras theorem.
[tex]d^{2} = l^{2} + l^{2}[/tex]
[tex]d^{2} = 5^{2} + 5^{2}[/tex]
[tex]d^{2} = 50[/tex]
[tex]d = \pm \sqrt{50}[/tex]
Lenght is a positive meausre, so
[tex]d = \sqrt{50}[/tex]
[tex]d = \sqrt{2 \times 25}[/tex]
[tex]d = \sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{25}[/tex]
[tex]d = 5\sqrt{2}[/tex]
So the correct answer is:
c) 5√2 cm
It is known that 50% of adult workers have a high school diploma. If a random sample of 8 adult workers is selected, what is the probability that less than 6 of them have a high school diploma
Answer:
85.56% probability that less than 6 of them have a high school diploma
Step-by-step explanation:
For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have a high school diploma, or they do not. The probability of an adult having a high school diploma is independent of other adults. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
50% of adult workers have a high school diploma.
This means that [tex]p = 0.5[/tex]
If a random sample of 8 adult workers is selected, what is the probability that less than 6 of them have a high school diploma
This is P(X < 6) when n = 8.
[tex]P(X < 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{8,0}.(0.5)^{0}.(0.5)^{8} = 0.0039[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{8,1}.(0.5)^{1}.(0.5)^{7} = 0.0313[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{8,2}.(0.5)^{2}.(0.5)^{6} = 0.1094[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{8,3}.(0.5)^{3}.(0.5)^{5} = 0.2188[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 4) = C_{8,4}.(0.5)^{4}.(0.5)^{4} = 0.2734[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{8,5}.(0.5)^{5}.(0.5)^{3} = 0.2188[/tex]
[tex]P(X < 6) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) = 0.0039 + 0.0313 + 0.1094 + 0.2188 + 0.2734 + 0.2188 = 0.8556[/tex]

In the circle below, CD is a diameter. If AE=10, CE=4, and AB=16, what is
the length of the radius of the circle?
Please Help ASAP
Answer:
(D)9.5 Units
Step-by-step explanation:
We have two chords CD and AB intersecting at E.
Using the theorem of intersecting chords
AE X EB =CE X ED
AE=10CE=4AB=16AB=AE+EB
16=10+EB
EB=16-10=6
Therefore:
AE X EB =CE X ED
10 X 6 = 4 X ED
ED =60/4 =15
Therefore:
CD=CE+ED
=4+15
CD=19
Recall that CD is a diameter of the circle and;
Radius =Diameter/2
Therefore, radius of the circle =19/2 =9.5 Units
Let $A_1 A_2 A_3 A_4$ be a regular tetrahedron. Let $P_1$ be the center of face $A_2 A_3 A_4,$ and define vertices $P_2,$ $P_3,$ and $P_4$ the same way. Find the ratio of the volume of tetrahedron $A_1 A_2 A_3 A_4$ to the volume of tetrahedron $P_1 P_2 P_3 P_4.$
Answer:
27 : 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The faces of a regular tetrahedron are equilateral triangles. The incenter, circumcenter, and centroid are all the same point, located 1/3 of the distance from the edge to the opposite vertex of the face. The vertical height of the point that is 1/3 the slant height from the base is 1/3 of the height of the tetrahedron.
Then the "inscribed" tetrahedron has 1/3 the height of the original. The ratio of volumes is the cube of the ratio of linear dimensions, so the ratio of the larger volume to the smaller is ...

The number of pieces of popcorn in a large movie theatre popcorn bucket is normally distributed, with a mean of 1610 and a standard deviation of 10. Approximately what percentage of buckets contain between 1600 and 1620 pieces of popcorn?
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that in normal distribution, approximately 34% of bags will fall with in one standard deviation on one side. On both sides within the range of 1 standard deviation, 34 + 34 = 68 % of bags will fall.
Our range is:
1600 to 1620
1610 - 10 to 1610 + 10
So the answer is 1
That means, that 68% is the answer.
Answer:
The answer is A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Approximately 68%

Answer:
D. F(x) = 2(x-3)^2 + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that the graph of G(x) = x^2, which is a parabola centered at (0, 0)
We are also told that the graph of the function F(x) resembles the graph of the function G(x) but has been shifted and stretched.
The graph of F(x) shown is facing up, so we know that it is multiplied by a positive number. This means we can eliminate A and C because they are both multiplied by -2.
Our two equations left are:
B. F(x) = 2(x+3)^2 + 3
D. F(x) = 2(x-3)^2 + 3
Well, we can see that the base of our parabola is (3, 3), so let's plug in the x value, 3, and see which equation gives us a y-value of 3.
y = 2(3+3)^2 + 3 =
2(6)^2 + 3 =
2·36 + 3 =
72 + 3 =
75
That one didn't give us a y value of 3.
y = 2(3-3)^2 + 3 =
2(0)^2 + 3 =
2·0 + 3 =
0 + 3 =
3
This equation gives us an x-value of 3 and a y-value of 3, which is what we wanted, so our answer is:
D. F(x) = 2(x-3)^2 + 3
Hopefully this helps you to understand parabolas better.
