A motorboat can maintain a constant speed of 28 miles
per hour relative to the water. The boat makes a trip
upstream to a certain point in 35 minutes; the return trip
takes 21 minutes. What is the speed of the current?

Answer:

CI = (70.861 , 94.418)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the 90% confidence interval you use the following formula (for a population approximately normal):

[tex]CI=(\overline{x}-Z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}},\overline{x}+Z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})[/tex]    (1)

[tex]\overline{x}[/tex]: mean = 82.64

σ: standard deviation = 14.32

n: sample = 4

α: tail area = 1 - 0.9 = 0.1

Z_α/2 = Z_0.05: Z factor =  1.645

You replace these values and you obtain:

[tex]Z_{0.05}(\frac{14.32}{\sqrt{4}})=(1.645)(\frac{14.32}{\sqrt{4}})=11.778[/tex]

The confidence interval will be:

[tex]CI=(82.64-11.778,82.64+11.778)=(70.861,94.418)[/tex]

The 90% confidence interval is (70.861 , 94.418)

Answer:

y = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use rise over run to find the slope, which will get you 1/2 as the slope

The y-intercept is at (0, -5) so put -5 in the equation

Answer: y= 1/2x + -5

Step-by-step explanation: slope is 1/2 because the line is going up one and over 2 (rise over run),  the y intercept is -5 because that is where the line hits on the y axis

Answer:

1. Parameter because the value is a numerical measurement describing a characteristic of a population

Step-by-step explanation:

A parameter is a fixed measure which describes the whole population while a statistic is a characteristic of a sample (which is a portion of the target population).

In a study of all 1963 employees at a college, it is found that "40%" own a computer.

The study involved the entire population of employees in the college, therefore the result describes the computer owning characteristics of the whole population under study. It is therefore a parameter.

The correct option is 1.

Answer:

B. (f - g)(x) = -3x² - x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

→Set it up like so:

(-4x² - 6x - 1) - (-x² - 5x + 3)

→Distribute the -1 to (-x² - 5x + 3):

-4x² - 6x - 1 + x² + 5x - 3

→Add like terms (-4x² and x², -6x and 5x, -1 and -3):

-3x² - x - 4

The factorisation of the given equation using completing square method is (x+12)²=177. Therefore, option D is correct.

The given equation is x²+24x=33.

We need to factorise the equation using completing the square method.

Completing the square means writing a quadratic in the form of a squared bracket and adding a constant if necessary.

Now, x²+24x-33=0

Add and subtract (b/2)²=144 to the equation.

x²+24x-33+144-144=0

⇒x²+24x+144-33-144=0

⇒(x+12)²-177=0

⇒(x+12)²=177

The factorisation of the given equation using completing square method is (x+12)²=177. Therefore, option D is correct.

Answer:

y = -1/2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If it's parallel, that means that the slope is the opposite of the one in the given equation, meaning that 2 would be flipped and turned negative into -1/2.

Then, fill in the x and y values to get the y-intercept.

1 = -1/2(-6) + b

1 = 3 + b

-2 = b

So your answer is y = -1/2x - 2

Answer:

  the sum is 01011000₂ = 88

Step-by-step explanation:

For numbers of magnitude less than 128, it is convenient to use an 8-bit representation. I find it works will to convert back and forth through the octal (base-8) representation, as each base-8 digit converts nicely to three (3) base-2 bits.

  61 = 8·7 +5 = 075₈ = 00 111 101₂

  27 = 8·3 +3 = 033₈ = 00 011 011₂

Then ...

  [tex]\begin{array}{cc|ccc}&61&&00111101\\+&27&+&00011011\\ &\overline{88}&&\overline{01011000}\end{array}[/tex]

__

Starting from the right, we can convert the binary back to octal, then to decimal by considering 3 bits at a time:

  01 011 000₂ = 130₈ = 1·8² +3·8 +0 = 64 +24 = 88

The binary sum is the same as the decimal sum.

Answer:

d. There is not enough evidence to support the hypothesis that the proportion of Uniformian voters has decreased.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a hypothesis test for a proportion.

The claim is that there is a significant drop in allegiance to the Uniformian Party in Bowie County.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \pi=0.62\\\\H_a:\pi<0.62[/tex]

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample has a size n=196.

The sample proportion is p=0.57.

The standard error of the proportion is:

[tex]\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.62*0.38}{196}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.001202}=0.035[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:

[tex]z=\dfrac{p-\pi+0.5/n}{\sigma_p}=\dfrac{0.57-0.62+0.5/196}{0.035}=\dfrac{-0.047}{0.035}=-1.369[/tex]

This test is a left-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as:

[tex]\text{P-value}=P(z<-1.369)=0.0855[/tex]

As the P-value (0.0855) is greater than the significance level (0.05), the effect is  not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that there is a significant drop in allegiance to the Uniformian Party in Bowie County.

1. Due to the lower standard deviation, it is more likely to obtain a sample of females within $10,000 of the population mean

2. 15.87% probability that a simple random sample of 100 male graduates will provide a sample mean more than $4,000 below the population mean

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use 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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

1. In which of the preceding two cases, part a or part b, do we have a higher probability of obtaining a smaple estimate within $10,000 of the population mean? why?

The lower the standard deviation, the less dispersed the values are, meaning it is more likely to find values within a certain threshold of the mean.

So

Due to the lower standard deviation, it is more likely to obtain a sample of females within $10,000 of the population mean.

2. What is the probability that a simple random sample of 100 male graduates will provide a sample mean more than $4,000 below the population mean?

We have that:

[tex]\mu = 168000, \sigma = 40000, n = 100, s = \frac{40000}{\sqrt{100}} = 4000[/tex]

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 168000 - 4000 = 164000. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{164000 - 168000}{4000}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.1587

15.87% probability that a simple random sample of 100 male graduates will provide a sample mean more than $4,000 below the population mean

Answer:

You have 31.43% of your allowance left.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a rule of three.

Your initial amount, of 70, is 100%.

The remaining amount, of 70 - 48 = 22, is x%. So

70 - 100%

22 - x%

[tex]70x = 100*22[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{100*22}{70}[/tex]

[tex]x = 31.43[/tex]

You have 31.43% of your allowance left.

Answer:

The area of the rectangle increasing at the rate of 140 cm²/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangle area:

A rectangle has two dimensions, length l and width w.

It's area is:

A = l*w.

When the length is 20 cm and the width is 10 cm, how fast is the area of the rectangle increasing?

We apply implicit differentiation to solve this question:

[tex]A = l*w[/tex]

So

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = l\frac{dw}{dt} + w\frac{dl}{dt}[/tex]

Length is 20, so [tex]l = 20[/tex].

Width is 10, so [tex]w = 10[/tex]

The length of a rectangle is increasing at a rate of 8 cm/s and its width is increasing at a rate of 3 cm/s.

This means that [tex]\frac{dl}{dt} = 8, \frac{dw}{dt} = 3[/tex]

So

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = l\frac{dw}{dt} + w\frac{dl}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dA}{dt} = 20*3 + 10*8 = 140[/tex]

Area in cm².

So

The area of the rectangle increasing at the rate of 140 cm²/s

Now that you have moved like terms to one side, you can directly add and subtract to combine like terms.

[tex]-\frac{1}{4} x=1[/tex]

x=-4

Answer:

[tex]x = - 4[/tex]

Second answer is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{1}{4} x - \frac{1}{8} = \frac{7}{8} + \frac{1}{2} x \\ \frac{1}{4} x - \frac{1}{2} x = \frac{1}{8} + \frac{7}{8} \\ \frac{1x - 2x}{4} = \frac{8}{8} \\ - \frac{1}{4} x = 1 \\ - 1x = 1 \times 4 \\ - 1x = 4 \\ x = - 4[/tex]
