Belinda wants to show these result in a frequency table.
She will use 4 equal groups.
The first group will start with 1 hour and the last group will end with 20 hours.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since she will use 4 groups or class intervals, the the class width would be 20/4 = 5 hours

The class groups would be

1 to 5

5 to 10

10 to 15

15 to 20

The class mark for each class is the average of the minimum and maximum value of each class. Therefore, the class marks are

(1 + 5)/2 = 3

(5 + 10)/2 = 7.5

(10 + 15)/2 = 12.5

(15 + 20)/2 = 17.5

The frequency table would be

Class group Frequency

1 - 5 4

5 - 10 8

10 - 15 6

15 - 20 2

The total frequency is 4 + 8 + 6 + 2 = 20

According to a polling​ organization, 22​% of adults in a large region consider themselves to be liberal. A survey asked 200 respondents to disclose their political​ philosophy: Conservative,​ Liberal, Moderate. Treat the results of the survey as a random sample of adults in this region. Do the survey results suggest the proportion is higher than that reported by the polling​ organization? Use an alphaequals0.01 level of significance.

Answers

Answer:

No. There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of liberals is higher than that reported by the polling​ organization (P-value = 0.0366).

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete: there is no information about the results of the survey. We will assume that 55 of the subjects answer "liberal", and test the claim.

This is a hypothesis test for a proportion.

The claim is that the proportion of liberals is higher than that reported by the polling​ organization.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \pi=0.22\\\\H_a:\pi>0.22[/tex]

The significance level is 0.01.

The sample has a size n=200.

The sample proportion is p=0.275.

[tex]p=X/n=55/200=0.275[/tex]

The standard error of the proportion is:

[tex]\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.22*0.78}{200}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.000858}=0.029[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:

[tex]z=\dfrac{p-\pi-0.5/n}{\sigma_p}=\dfrac{0.275-0.22-0.5/200}{0.029}=\dfrac{0.053}{0.029}=1.792[/tex]

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

[tex]\text{P-value}=P(z>1.792)=0.0366[/tex]

As the P-value (0.0366) is greater than the significance level (0.01), the effect is  not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of liberals is higher than that reported by the polling​ organization.

a football team had 50 players at the start of the season, but then some players left the team. After that, the team had 42 players

Answers

Answer:

50 = p + 42

Step-by-step explanation:

The unknown part of this equation is the variable p, the number of people that left. So you want to add p to 42 and that will give you the total number of football players, which is 50. In order to get p, you need to get it by itself and make it equal something. Subtract 42 from both sides and you are stuck with 50-42 = p

p = 8

Answer:

50-p=42

A commuter uses a bus and a train to get to work. The train is more than 5 minutes late 1/6 of the times they use it The bus is more than 5 minutes late 3/5 of the times they use it. What is the probability that both the bus and train will be more than 5 minutes late?

Answers

Answer:

10% probability that both the bus and train will be more than 5 minutes late

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent events:

If two events, A and B, are independent, we have that:

[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(A)*P(B)[/tex]

What is the probability that both the bus and train will be more than 5 minutes late?

The bus being more than 5 minutes late is independent of the train, and vice versa. So

Event A: Bus more than 5 minutes late

Event B: Train more than 5 minutes late

The train is more than 5 minutes late 1/6 of the times they use it

This means that [tex]P(B) = \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

The bus is more than 5 minutes late 3/5 of the times they use it.

This means that [tex]P(A) = \frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(A \cap B) = \frac{3}{5}*\frac{1}{6} = \frac{3}{30} = 0.1[/tex]

10% probability that both the bus and train will be more than 5 minutes late

The lengths of a professor's classes has a continuous uniform distribution between 50.0 min and 52.0 min. If one such class is randomly selected, find the probability that the class length is between 50.1 and 51.1 min. P(50.1 < X < 51.1) =

Answers

Answer:

P(50.1 < X < 51.1) = 0.5

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 probability that we find a value X between c and d is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(c < X < d) = \frac{d - c}{b - a}[/tex]

The lengths of a professor's classes has a continuous uniform distribution between 50.0 min and 52.0 min.

This means that [tex]a = 50, b = 52[/tex]

So

[tex]P(50.1 < X < 51.1) = \frac{51.1 - 50.1}{52 - 50} = 0.5[/tex]

On Sunday, a local hamburger shop sold a combined of 572 hamburger and cheeseburger. The number of cheeseburgers sold was three times the number of hamburger sold. How many hamburger were sold on Sunday

Answers

Answer: 143 hamburgers and 429 cheese burgers

Explanation:

Call h and c the number of both items.
(h-hamburger and c-cheeseburger)

h + c = 572
c = 3h

Sub the second into the first

h + 3h = 572
4h = 572

Divide both sides by 4
h = 143 hamburgers

Use this back into the second equation
c = 3 • 143 = 429 cheeseburgers

Suppose Isabella scores 187 points in the game on Sunday. The z-score when x=187 is ___ The mean is _________
This z-score tells you that x = 187 is _________ standard deviations.

Answers

Answer:

The z-score when x=187 is 2.41. The mean is 187. This z-score tells you that x = 187 is 2.41 standard deviations above the mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are 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.

In this question:

[tex]\mu = 152, \sigma = 14.5[/tex]

The z-score when x=187 is ...

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

[tex]Z = \frac{187 - 152}{14.5}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.41[/tex]

The z-score when x=187 is 2.41. The mean is 187. This z-score tells you that x = 187 is 2.41 standard deviations above the mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the general solution of a homogeneous second order differential equation, we need to solve the characteristic equation. This is basically as easy as solving a quadratic.

For a second order differential equation of type:

[tex]ay''+by'+cy=0[/tex]

Has characteristic equation:

[tex]a r^{2} +br+c=0[/tex]

Whose solutions [tex]r_1 , r_2 ,.., r_n[/tex] are the roots from which the general solution can be formed. There are three cases:

Real roots:

[tex]y(x)=c_1e^{r_1 x} +c_2e^{r_2 x}[/tex]

Repeated roots:

[tex]y(x)=c_1e^{r x} +c_1 xe^{r x}[/tex]

Complex roots:

[tex]y(x)=c_1e^{\lambda x}cos(\mu x) +c_2e^{\lambda x}sin(\mu x)\\\\Where:\\\\r_1_,_2=\lambda \pm \mu i[/tex]

Therefore:

The characteristic equation for:

[tex]y''+6y'+13y=0[/tex]

Is:

[tex]r^{2} +6r+13=0[/tex]

Solving for [tex]r[/tex] :

[tex]r_1_,_2= -3 \pm 2i[/tex]

So:

[tex]\mu = 2\\\\and\\\\\lambda=-3[/tex]

Hence, the general solution of the differential equation will be given by:

[tex]y(x)=c_1e^{-3x} cos(2x)+c_2e^{-3x} sin(2x)[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

When x = 1 and z = 4,   [tex]y=\frac{80}{9}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The variation described in the problem can be written using a constant of proportionality "b" as:

[tex]y=b\,\,x\,\,z^2[/tex]

The other piece of information is that when x = 5 and z = 1, then y gives 25/9. So we use this info to find the constant "b":

[tex]y=b\,\,x\,\,z^2\\\frac{25}{9} =b\,\,(5)\,\,(1)^2\\\frac{25}{9} =b\,\,(5)\\b=\frac{5}{9}[/tex]

Knowing this constant, we can find the value of y when x=1 and z=4 as:

[tex]y=b\,\,x\,\,z^2\\y=\frac{5}{9} \,\,x\,\,z^2\\y=\frac{5}{9} \,\,(1)\,\,(4)^2\\y=\frac{5*16}{9}\\y=\frac{80}{9}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

The number of the class containing the  largest score can be found in frequency  24 and the class is  98 - 103

For the third class 78 - 83 ; the upper limit = 83

The class width for this histogram 5

The number of students that took the exam simply refers to the frequency is  84

The percentage of students that scored higher than 95.5 is 53%

Step-by-step explanation:

The objective of this question is to use the following histogram that shows the exam scores for a Pre-algebra class to answer the question given:

NOW;

The table given in the question can be illustrated as follows:

S/N           Class                Score          Frequency

1                 68  - 73            70.5           0

2                73 - 78             75.5           4

3                78 - 83             80.5           8

4                83 - 88             85.5           12

5                88 - 93            90.5           16

6                93 - 98            95.5           20

7                98 - 103           100.5          24                            

TOTAL:                                                 84

                                                                                           

a) The number of the class containing the  largest score can be found in frequency  24 and the class is  98 - 103

b) For the third class 78 - 83 ; the upper limit = 83  ( since the upper limit is derived by addition of  5 to the last number showing  in the highest value specified by the number in the class interval which is 78 ( i.e 78 + 5 = 83))

c)   The class width for this histogram 5 ; since it  is the difference  between the upper and lower boundaries  limit of the given class.

So , from above the difference in any of the class will definitely result into 5

d) The number of students that took the exam simply refers to the frequency ; which is (0+4+8+12+16+20+24) = 84

e) Lastly; the percentage of students that scored higher than 95.5 is ;

⇒[tex]\dfrac{20+24}{84} *100[/tex]

= 0.5238095 × 100

= 52.83

To the nearest percentage ;the percentage of students that scored higher than 95.5 is 53%

Answer:

1. 98-103 (6th class)

2. 88

3. 5

4. 84

5. 52%

Step-by-step explanation:

Find attached the frequency table.

The class of exam scores falls between (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6).

The exam score ranged from 68-103

1) The largest number of exam scores = 24

The largest number of exam scores is in the 6th class = 98 -103

Step 2 of 5:

The upper class limit is the higher number in an interval. Third class interval is 83-88

The upper class limit of the third class 88.

Step 3 of 5:

Class width = upper class limit - lower class limit

We can use any of the class interval to find this as the answer will be the same. Using the interval between 73-78

Class width = 78 - 73

Class width for the histogram = 5

Step 4 of 5:

The total of students that took the test = sum of all the frequency

= 0+4+8+12+16+20+24 = 84

The total of students that took the test = 84

Step 5 of 5:Find the percentage of students that scored higher than 95.5

Number of student that scored higher than 95.5 = 20 + 24 = 44

Percentage of students that scored higher than 95.5 = [(Number of student that scored higher than 95.5)/(total number of students that took the test)] × 100

= (44/84) × 100 = 0.5238 × 100 = 52.38%

Percentage of students that scored higher than 95.5 = 52% (nearest percent)

The average math SAT score is 511 with a standard deviation of 119. A particular high school claims that its students have unusually high math SAT scores. A random sample of 55 students from this school was​ selected, and the mean math SAT score was 528. Is the high school justified in its​ claim? Explain. ▼ No Yes ​, because the​ z-score ​( nothing​) is ▼ unusual not unusual since it ▼ does not lie lies within the range of a usual​ event, namely within ▼ 1 standard deviation 2 standard deviations 3 standard deviations of the mean of the sample means. ​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)

Answers

Answer:

No, because the​ z-score of Z = 1.06 is not unusual since it does not lie within the range of a usual​ event, namely within 2 standard deviations of the mean of the sample means.

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.

Unusual

If X is more than two standard deviations from the mean, x is considered unusual.

In this question:

[tex]\mu = 511, \sigma = 119, n = 55, s = \frac{119}{\sqrt{55}} = 16.046[/tex]

A random sample of 55 students from this school was​ selected, and the mean math SAT score was 528. Is the high school justified in its​ claim?

If Z is equal or greater than 2, the claim is justified.

Lets find Z.

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{528 - 511}{16.046}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.06[/tex]

1.06 < 2, so 528 is not unusually high.

The answer is:

No, because the​ z-score of Z = 1.06 is not unusual since it does not lie within the range of a usual​ event, namely within 2 standard deviations of the mean of the sample means.

The statement that could be made regarding the high school about the justification of its claim would be:

- No, because the​ z-score of Z = 1.06 is not unusual since it does not lie within the range of a usual​ event, namely within 2 standard deviations of the mean of the sample means.

Given that,

μ = 511

σ = 119

Sample(n) = 55

and

s = [tex]119/\sqrt{55}[/tex]

[tex]= 16.046[/tex]

As we know,

The claim of the high school could be valid and justified only when

[tex]Z > 2[/tex]

To find,

The value of Z

So,

[tex]Z = (X -[/tex] μ )/σ

by putting the values using Central Limit Theorem,

[tex]Z = (528 - 511)/16.046[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.06[/tex]

Since [tex]Z < 2[/tex], the claim is not justified.

[tex]y=9-\frac{2}{3}x\\\\\frac{3}{2}x=9-\frac{2}{3}x\\\\\frac{3}{2}x+\frac{2}{3}x=9\\\\\frac{13}{6}x=9\\\\x=\frac{54}{13}[/tex]

The value of y is:

[tex]y=\frac{3}{2}x=\frac{3}{2}\times\frac{54}{13}=\frac{81}{13}[/tex]

The intersecting point is [tex](\frac{54}{13},\ \frac{81}{13})[/tex].

The y-intercept of the line f (x) is, 9, i.e. the point is (0, 9).

So, the triangle is  bounded by the points:

(0, 0), (0, 9) and [tex](\frac{54}{13},\ \frac{81}{13})[/tex]

Consider the diagram attached.

Compute the area of the triangle as follows:

[tex]\text{Area}=\frac{1}{2}\times 9\times \frac{54}{13}=18.69231\approx 18.70[/tex]

Thus, the area of the triangle is 18.70 sq.units.

9. In 2002 the Georgia department of education reported a mean reading test score of 850 from Tattnall County Career Academy with a standard deviation of 50. The sample was taken from 100 11th grade students. Assuming the test scores are normally distributed, what is the standard error

Answers

Answer:

The standard error = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Given sample size 'n' = 100

Given mean reading test score μ =  850

Given standard deviation of the population 'σ' = 50

The standard error is determined by

 Standard error =   [tex]\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

                    S.E = σ/√n

[tex]S.E = \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } = \frac{50}{\sqrt{100} } = 5[/tex]

Final answer:-

The standard error ( S.E) = 5

1. In an arithmetic sequence, the first term is -2, the fourth term is 16, and the n-th term is 11,998

(a) Find the common difference d

(b) Find the value of n.​


pls help...

Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of an arithmetic sequence is

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = a₁ + (n - 1)d

(a)

Given a₁ = - 2 and a₄ = 16, then

a₁ + 3d = 16 , that is

- 2 + 3d = 16 ( add 2 to both sides )

3d = 18 ( divide both sides by 3 )

d = 6

--------------

(b)

Given

[tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 11998 , then

a₁ + (n - 1)d = 11998 , that is

- 2 + 6(n - 1) = 11998 ( add 2 to both sides )

6(n - 1) = 12000 ( divide both sides by 6 )

n - 1 = 2000 ( add 1 to both sides )

n = 2001
