Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The z score when x =72 is:

[tex] z = \frac{72-58}{11}= 1.273[/tex]

The mean is 58

This z-score tells you that x= 72 is 1.273 standard deviations to the right of the mearn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the following info for the question: Suppose John's words per minute on a typing test are normally distributed. Let X -the number of words per minute on a typing test. Then X N(58, 11) If necessary, round to three decimal places.

Provide your answer below rds per minute in a typing test on Sunday. The z score when x =72 is

For this case we know that the variable of interest is modelled with the normal distribution:

[tex]X \sim N (\mu= 58, \sigma=11)[/tex]

And the z score is given by:

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

And replacing we got:

[tex] z = \frac{72-58}{11}= 1.273[/tex]

The mean is 58

This z-score tells you that x= 72 is 1.273 standard deviations to the right of the mearn.

Given A triangle with sides x=6.35 cm and Y=12.25 cm with an angle of 90 degrees between them, find the length of the hypotenuse and the size of the other two angles.

Answers

Answer:

Hypotenuse = 13.798 cm, Angle1 = 27.4° and Angle2 = 62.59°

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step to help us understand the question would be to draw it out.

A right angled triangle, with the two sides that make the right angle being x and y (it does not matter which way you put x and y).

I have attached the quick sketch I will refer to.

To find the length of the hypotenuse (lets call it H) we can use Pythagoras theorem as shown below

[tex]{x^{2}+y^{2}} = H^{2}[/tex]

Substitute in our values for x and y, and solve for H

[tex]{6.35^{2}+12.25^{2}} = H^{2}[/tex]

[tex]190.385 = H^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{190.385} = H[/tex]

H = 13.79 cm

To find the other two angles of the triangle we will use trigonometry

I will first look for angle ∅. Since we have all three sides of the triangle we can use any of the three trig functions, I chose to use Tan

Tan ∅ [tex]= \frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

Substitute in our values for x and y, and solve for ∅

Tan ∅ = [tex]\frac{6.35}{12.25}[/tex]

∅ = [tex]tan^{-1} \frac{6.35}{12.25}[/tex]

∅ = 27.4°

Now do the same for angle β. I chose to use Tan again

Tan β [tex]= \frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex]

Substitute in our values for x and y, and solve for β

Tan β = [tex]\frac{12.25}{6.35}[/tex]

β = [tex]tan^{-1} \frac{12.25}{6.35}[/tex]

β = 62.59°

A phone charger requires 0.5 A at 5V. It is connected to a transformer with 100 % of efficiency whose primary contains 2200 turns and is connected to 220-V household outlet.

(a) How many turns should there be in the secondary?

(b) What is the current in the primary?

(c) What would be the output current and output voltage values if number of secondary turns (N2) doubled of its initial value?

Answers

Answer:

a. 50 turns

b. 0.0114 A

c. 0.25 A, 10 V

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

- The required current ( Is ) = 0.5 A

- The required voltage ( Vs ) = 5 V

- Transformer is 100% efficient ( ideal )

- The number of turns in the primary coil, ( Np ) = 2200

- The Voltage generated by power station, ( Vp ) = 220 V

Find:-

a. The number of turns in the secondary coil of the transformer

b. The current supplied by the power station

c. The effect on output current and voltage when the number of turns of secondary coil are doubled.

Solution:-

- For ideal transformers that consists of a ferromagnetic core with two ends wounded by a conductive wire i.e primary and secondary.

- The power generated at the stations is sent to home via power lines and step-down before the enter our homes.

- A household receives a voltage of 220 V at one of it outlets. We are to charge a phone that requires 0.5 A and 5V for the process.

- The outlet and any electronic device is in junction with a smaller transformer.

- All transformers have two transformation ratios for current ( I ) and voltage ( V ) that is related to the ratio of number of turns in the primary and secondary.

                     Voltage Transformation = [tex]\frac{N_p}{N_s} = \frac{V_p}{V_s}[/tex]

Where,

                 Ns : The number of turns in secondary winding

- Plug in the values and evaluate ( Ns ):

                           [tex]N_s = N_p*\frac{V_s}{V_p} \\\\N_s = 2200*\frac{5}{220} \\\\N_s = 50[/tex]

Answer a: The number of turns in the secondary coil should be Ns = 50 turns.

- Similarly, the current transformation is related to the inverse relation to the number of turns in the respective coil.

                  Current Transformation = [tex]\frac{N_p}{N_s} = \frac{I_s}{I_p}[/tex]

Where,

                 Ip : The current in primary coil

- Plug in the values and evaluate ( Ip ):

                        [tex]I_p = \frac{N_s}{N_p}*I_s\\\\I_p = \frac{50}{2200}*0.5\\\\I_p = 0.0114[/tex]  

Answer b: The current in the primary coil should be Ip = 0.0114 Amp.

- The number of turns in the secondary coil are doubled . From the transformation ratios we know that that voltage is proportional to the number of turns in the respective coils. So if the turns in the secondary are doubled then the output voltage is also doubled ( assuming all other design parameters remains the same ). Hence, the output voltage is = 2*5V = 10 V

- Similary, current transformation ratio suggests that the current is inversely proportional to the number of turns in the respective coils. So if the turns in the secondary are doubled then the output current is half of the required ( assuming all other design parameters remains the same ). Hence, the output current is = 0.5*0.5 A = 0.25 A

in the interval (1, 2).

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is  d

[tex]f(1) = -5[/tex]

[tex]f(2) = 11[/tex]

The correct option is d

The correct option is  c

the correct option is  b

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

     [tex]f(x) = x^4 + x -7 =0[/tex]

The give interval  is [tex](1,2)[/tex]

 

   Now differentiating the equation

        [tex]f'(x) = 4x^3 +7 > 0[/tex]

Therefore the equation is  positive  at the given interval

       Now at x= 1

  [tex]f(1) = (1)^4 + 1 -7 =-5[/tex]

       Now at x= 2

  [tex]f(2) = (2)^4 + 2 -7 =11[/tex]

Now at  the interval (1,2)

      [tex]f(1) < 0 < f(2)[/tex]

i.e

      [tex]-5 < 0 < 11[/tex]

this tell us that there is a value z within 1,2 and

   f(z) =  0

Which implies that there is a root within (1,2) according to the intermediate value theorem

Vertical Line Test

ApplicationStep 1: Define

Let's see what we are given.

We are given a graph of an inverse of a function.

Step 2: Identify

We need to figure out whether the graphed inverse function is a function or not.

By the definition of a function, we know that every x input must correlate with one y output. In layman's terms, each respective x input has its own specific y output.

This definition builds the foundation of the Vertical Line Test. We can use this simple "tool" to verify whether or not a given graph is a function or not.

By placing a vertical line "on" the graph, we can move it to determine whether an x input has only one y output.If a graph passes the Vertical Line Test, it is said to be a function.If a graph fails the Vertical Line Test, it is said to not be a function, but rather a relation, etc.

Step 3: Test

When we apply the Vertical Line Test to the graphed inverse function, we can see that every x input has only one specific y output.

∴ we can conclude that the graphed inverse function is indeed a function.

The answer to the question would be A. True.

A broker has calculated the expected values of two different financial instruments X and Y. Suppose that E(x)= $100, E(y)=$90 SD(x)= 90$ and SD(y)=$8. Find each of the following.

a. E(X+ 10) and SD(X+ 10)
b. E(5Y) and SD(5Y)
c) E(X+ Y) and SD(X+ Y)
d) What assumption must you make in part c?

Answers

Expectation is linear, meaning

E(a X + b Y) = E(a X) + E(b Y)

= a E(X) + b E(Y)

If X = 1 and Y = 0, we see that the expectation of a constant, E(a), is equal to the constant, a.

Use this property to compute the expectations:

E(X + 10) = E(X) + E(10) = $110

E(5Y) = 5 E(Y) = $450

E(X + Y) = E(X) + E(Y) = $190

Variance has a similar property:

V(a X + b Y) = V(a X) + V(b Y) + Cov(X, Y)

= a^2 V(X) + b^2 V(Y) + Cov(X, Y)

where "Cov" denotes covariance, defined by

E[(X - E(X))(Y - E(Y))] = E(X Y) - E(X) E(Y)

Without knowing the expectation of X Y, we can't determine the covariance and thus variance of the expression a X + b Y.

However, if X and Y are independent, then E(X Y) = E(X) E(Y), which makes the covariance vanish, so that

V(a X + b Y) = a^2 V(X) + b^2 V(Y)

and this is the assumption we have to make to find the standard deviations (which is the square root of the variance).

Also, variance is defined as

V(X) = E[(X - E(X))^2] = E(X^2) - E(X)^2

and it follows from this that, if X is a constant, say a, then

V(a) = E(a^2) - E(a)^2 = a^2 - a^2 = 0

Use this property, and the assumption of independence, to compute the variances, and hence the standard deviations:

V(X + 10) = V(X)  ==>  SD(X + 10) = SD(X) = $90

V(5Y) = 5^2 V(Y) = 25 V(Y)  ==>  SD(5Y) = 5 SD(Y) = $40

V(X + Y) = V(X) + V(Y)  ==>  SD(X + Y) = √[SD(X)^2 + SD(Y)^2] = √8164 ≈ $90.35

Age needs to use all the candy to create identical treat bags. How many treat bags can bonnie make so that each one has the same number and variety of candy? How many of each type of candy will be in each bag?

Answers

Answer:

Number of bags that Bonnie can make so that each one has the same number of candies = 48

Number of candies from bag I in each of the treat bag = 5

Number of candies from bag II in each of the treat bag = 13

Number of candies from bag III in each of the treat bag = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: One bag (I) has 240 candies, one bag (II) has 624 candies and one bag (III) has 336 candies

To find: Number of bags that Bonnie can make so that each one has the same number of candies and number of each type of candies in each bag

Solution:

[tex]240=2^4\times 3\times 5\\624=2^4\times3\times13\\336=2^4\times3\times7[/tex]

Highest common factor (H.C.F) = [tex]2^4\times3=48[/tex]

So,

Number of bags that bonnie can make so that each one has the same number of candies = 48

Now,

[tex]\frac{240}{48}=5\\ \frac{240}{48}=13\\\frac{240}{48}=7[/tex]

Number of candies from bag I in each of the treat bag = 5

Number of candies from bag II in each of the treat bag = 13

Number of candies from bag III in each of the treat bag = 7

Therefore, whenever the cube volume

[tex]x=6 \ cm \ is \ V= 216 \ cm^3[/tex]

Then consider the cube's volume

x = 6.5 cm.

Substitute x = 6.5 cm in the volume

[tex]V_1 = x^3\\V_1 = (6.5)^3\\V_1 = 274.625 \\[/tex]   by using the calculator.

Therefore, when another cube volume

Answers

Answer:

It is worth $4 to insure the mailing.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable X can be defined as the money value.

The PDA costs, $414.

It is provided that there is a 3% chance it will be lost or damaged in the mail.

So, there is 97% chance it will not be lost or damaged in the mail.

The insurance costs $4.

If the PDA is lost or damaged in the mail when there is no insurance the money value would be of -$414.

And if the PDA is lost or damaged in the mail when there is an insurance the money value would be of $414 - $4 = $410.

Compute the expected value of money as follows:

[tex]\text{E (X)}=(0.97\times 410)+(0.03\times -414)[/tex]

The following data summarizes results from 945 pedestrian deaths that were caused by accidents. If one of the pedestrian deaths is randomly​ selected, find the probability that the pedestrian was intoxicated or the driver was intoxicated.

Pedestrian
intoxicated not intoxicated
Driver intoxicated 64 68
not intoxicated 292 521

Answers

Answer:

37.67% probability that the pedestrian was intoxicated or the driver was intoxicated.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this question:

945 accidents.

In 64 of them, the pedestian was intoxicated.

In 292 of them, the driver was intoxicated.

Probability that the pedestrian was intoxicated or the driver was intoxicated.

(64+292)/945 = 0.3767

37.67% probability that the pedestrian was intoxicated or the driver was intoxicated.

In ΔEFG, ∠E \cong≅∠G, GE = 7 and FG = 15. Find the length of EF.

Answers

Answer:  EF = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The given description is that of an isosceles triangle. The base angles are congruent, therefore the sides opposite of those angles are also congruent.

The base angles are ∠E and ∠G and the vertex angle is ∠F.

The sides opposite to the base angles are EF and FG.

Thus, EF ≡ FG.

Since FG = 15 and FG = EF, then 15 = EF.

Based on the definition of an isosceles triangle, the length of EF in the triangle is: 15 units.

What is an Isosceles Triangle?

An isosceles triangle has two sides that are congruent. The angles opposite these congruent sides are also congruent.

ΔEFG is an isosceles triangle. The congruent sides are, FG and EF.

Therefore, EF = FG = 15 units.

A charity receives 2025 contributions. Contributions are assumed to be mutually independent and identically distributed with mean 3125 and standard deviation 250. Calculate the approximate 90th percentile for the distribution of the total contributions

Answers

Answer:

The 90th percentile for the distribution of the total contributions is $6,342,525.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Normal probability distribution

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.

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.

For sums of size n, the mean is [tex]\mu*n[/tex] and the standard deviation is [tex]s = \sqrt{n}*\sigma[/tex]

In this question:

[tex]n = 2025, \mu = 3125*2025 = 6328125, \sigma = \sqrt{2025}*250 = 11250[/tex]

The 90th percentile for the distribution of the total contributions

This is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.9. So it is X when Z = 1.28. Then

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]1.28 = \frac{X - 6328125}{11250}[/tex]

[tex]X - 6328125 = 1.28*11250[/tex]

[tex]X = 6342525[/tex]

The 90th percentile for the distribution of the total contributions is $6,342,525.
