Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

There are two values of n in the text, I'll use the one that appears in all the questions.

The variable of interest is

X: pollutants found in waterways near large cities. (ppm)

This variable has a normal distribution with parameters μ= 9ppm and σ= 1.5ppm

1) X~N(μ;σ²)

X~N(9;2.25)

2) The distribution of the sample mean is X~N(μ;σ²/n)

σ²/n= 2.25/37= 0.06

X~N(9;0.06)

3) P(X>9.6)

To calculate this probability you have to use the standard normal distribution. Using the population parameters, you can calculate the corresponding Z value:

Z= (X-μ)/σ= (9.6-9)/1.5= 0.4

P(Z>0.4)= 1-P(Z≤0.4)= 1 - 0.65542= 0.34458

The probability of selecting a city at random and finding 9.6ppm pollutants.

4) In this item, instead of calculating the probability of one value of the variable you have to calculate the probability of the sample average taking a determined value. Because of this, you have to work using the distribution of the sample mean, instead of the distribution of the variable.

P(X[bar]>9.6)

Z= (X[bar]-μ)/(σ/√n)= (9.6-9)/√0.06= 2.45

P(Z>2.45)= 1 - P(Z≤2.45)= 1 - 0.99286= 0.00714

5) The assumption of a normal distribution is not necessary for item 4. Since the sample size is large enough (greater than 30) you can apply the central limit theorem and approximate the distribution of the sample mean to normal, regarding the distribution of the original variable.

6)

In this case, you have to work starting with the standard normal distribution and then "translate" the Z values into values of the average amount of pollutants.

The first quartile divides the bottom 25% of the distribution from the top 75%, symbolically:

P(Z≤z₁)= 0.25

z₁= -0.674

z₁= (X[bar]-μ)/(σ/√n)

z₁*(√n/σ)=X[bar]-μ

X[bar]=z₁*(√n/σ)+μ

X[bar]=(-0.674)*(√37/1.5)+9= 6.27ppm

The third quartile divides the bottom 75% of the distribution from the top 25%, symbolically:

P(Z≤z₂)= 0.75

z₂= 0.674

z₂= (X[bar]-μ)/(σ/√n)

z₂*(√n/σ)=X[bar]-μ

X[bar]=z₂*(√n/σ)+μ

X[bar]=(0.674)*(√37/1.5)+9= 11.7.3ppm

IQR= Q₃-Q₁= 11.73-6.27= 5.46ppm

I hope this helps!

1. Compute the row percentage
2. Construct a sketch percentage of frequency bar chat with x on horozontal axis.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given data:

The row percentage can be determined by: taking each box in each row and by dividing it with its total on that line, after that we will multiply it by 100 to get the result of it's equivalent percentage.

Table reconstruct the table from the question ; we have:

                y                

x              Yes          No              Total

Low           20         10                  30

Medium     15          35                 50

High           20           5                  25

Total          55           50                105

For Low; the total on the row is 30 ;

so for Yes: we have 20/30 × 100 = 66.7

for No ; we have 10/30 × 100 = 33.3

For Medium ; the total on the row is 50 ;

so for Yes: we have 15/50 × 100 = 30

for No ; we have 35/50 × 100 = 70

For High  ; the total on the row is 25;

so for Yes: we have 20/25 × 100 = 80

for No ; we have 5/25 × 100 = 20

                y                

x              Yes          No              Total

Low           66.7     33.3                100

One day Pat Unger worked for a total of 8
hours. She worked 3 hours more in the after-
noon than she worked in the morning. How
long did she work in the afternoon?

Answers

Answer:

5.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of hours worked in morning by Pat = x hours

given that "She worked 3 hours more in the after-

noon than she worked in the morning"

No. of hours worked in Afternoon by Pat = x + 3  hours

Total hours worked in the day = x + x+3 = 2x +3 hours  (1)

It is given that Pat worked for 8 hours that day (2)

thus, using 1 and 2 we have

2x +3  =  8

=>2x = 8 - 3 = 5

=> x = 5/2 = 2.5

no. of hours worked in morning by Pat = x hours = 2.5 hours

No. of hours worked in Afternoon by Pat = x + 3  hours = 2.5 + 3 hours

 No. of hours worked in Afternoon by Pat = 5.5 hours --- Answer.

b

       [tex]\frac{\delta E}{\delta V} = \frac{mc^3 v}{(c^2 - v^2 )^{\frac{3}{2} }}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are given

So we are asked to find  [tex]\frac{\delta E}{\delta m}[/tex]

Now  this is mathematically evaluated as

          [tex]\frac{\delta E}{\delta m} = \frac{\delta }{\delta m} [mc^2 ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2} } } -1 )][/tex]

               [tex]= c^2 [\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2 } } } -1 ] \frac{\delta m}{\delta m}[/tex]

              [tex]= c^2 [\frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2} } } -1 ][/tex]

Also we are asked to find  [tex]\frac{\delta E}{\delta V}[/tex]

    Now  this is mathematically evaluated as

         [tex]\frac{\delta E}{\delta V} = \frac{\delta }{\delta v } [mc^2 ( \frac{1}{\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2} } } - 1 )][/tex]

         [tex]\frac{\delta E}{\delta V} = mc^2 [\frac{\delta }{\delta v} (\frac{c}{\sqrt{c^2 -v^2} } - 1 )][/tex]

              [tex]= mc^2 [c* [\frac{\delta }{\delta v} (c^2 - v^2 )^{-\frac{1}{2} }] - 0][/tex]

             [tex]= mc^3 [- \frac{1}{2} (c^2 - v^2 )^{-\frac{3}{2} } * (-2v)][/tex]

The given table is as follows:

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{cc}{x}&f(x)\\-6&8\\7&3\\4&-5\\3&-2\\-5&12\end{array}\right][/tex]

Here, the values written on the left side of table i.e. values of [tex]x[/tex] are known as the domain values or input values to a function.

The values written on the right side of table i.e. values of [tex]f(x)[/tex] are known as the range values or output values of the function [tex]f(x)[/tex].

Let us consider the pairs of values:

i.e. when [tex]x=-6[/tex], the output value [tex]f(x) =8[/tex].

The same thing applies for all the pairs of values.

similarly for the pair (3,-2):

Left side value is of [tex]x[/tex] and right side value is of [tex]f(x)[/tex]

i.e. when [tex]x=3[/tex], the output value [tex]f(x) =-2[/tex].

  ii. 9.6 × [tex]10^{9}[/tex] years

C. After 9.2 × [tex]10^{9}[/tex] (9.2 billion) years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the mass of the Sun = 2× [tex]10^{30}[/tex] Kg.

Mass of hydrogen when Sun was formed = 76% of 2× [tex]10^{30}[/tex] Kg

                            = [tex]\frac{76}{100}[/tex]  ×2× [tex]10^{30}[/tex] Kg

                           = 1.52 × [tex]10^{30}[/tex] Kg

Mass of hydrogen available for fusion = 12% of 1.52 × [tex]10^{30}[/tex] Kg

                           = [tex]\frac{12}{100}[/tex] × 1.52 × [tex]10^{30}[/tex] Kg

                           = 1.824 ×[tex]10^{30}[/tex] Kg

A. Total mass of hydrogen available for fusion over the lifetime of the sun is 1.8 ×[tex]10^{30}[/tex] Kg.

B. Given that the Sun fuses 6 × [tex]10^{11}[/tex] Kg of hydrogen each second.

i. The Sun's initial hydrogen would last;

                                     [tex]\frac{1.8*10^{30} }{6*10^{11} }[/tex]

                                 = 3.04 × [tex]10^{17}[/tex] seconds

The Sun's hydrogen would last 3.0 × [tex]10^{17}[/tex] seconds

ii. Since there are 31536000 seconds in a year, then;

The Sun's initial hydrogen would last;

                                     [tex]\frac{3.04*10^{17} }{31536000}[/tex]

                                 = 9.640 × [tex]10^{9}[/tex] years

The Sun's hydrogen would last 9.6 × [tex]10^{9}[/tex] years.

C. Given that our solar system is now about 4.6 × [tex]10^{9}[/tex] years, then;

                               [tex]\frac{9.6*10^{9} }{4.6*10^{9} }[/tex]

                             = 2.09

So that;   2 × 4.6 × [tex]10^{9}[/tex] = 9.2 × [tex]10^{9}[/tex] years

Therefore, we need to worry about the Sun running out of hydrogen for fusion after 9.2 × [tex]10^{9}[/tex] years.

Part(A): The total mass of hydrogen available 9.6 billion years.

Part(B): The total time is 5.10 billion years.

Mass of the sun:

Our sun is the largest object in our solar system. The mass of the sun is approximately [tex]1.988\times 1030[/tex] kilograms

Part(A):

Given that,

The total mass of the Sun =[tex]2\times10^{30} kg[/tex]

Mass of hydrogen in Sun =  [tex]2\times10^{30} \times0.76\ kg[/tex]

The mass of hydrogen ever available for fusion is,

[tex]2\times10^{30} \times 0.76 \times 0.12 kg = 1.824\times 10^{29}[/tex]

Mass of hydrogen fuses each second = 600 billion kg/second.

Time hydrogen will last in seconds=[tex]1.824\times 10^{29}seconds.[/tex]

[tex]= 0.00304\times 10^{29 }= 3.04\times 10^{17}.[/tex]

[tex]31,536,000 x = 3.04\times 10^{17} = 9.6 \ billion \ years.[/tex]

(B) Present age of sun = [tex]9.6-4.5 \ billion \ years[/tex]

The time when we need to worry about Sun running out of hydrogen for fusion = 5.10 billion years.

(D) The solar system is 4.6 billion years old that is [tex]4.6\times 10^9\ years[/tex]

And in part (B) we have calculated that hydrogen will last [tex]9.64\times 10^9[/tex] then,

A company estimates that 0.8% of their products will fail after the original warranty period but within 2 years of the purchase, with a replacement cost of $400. If they offer a 2 year extended warranty for $27, what is the company's expected value of each warranty sold?

Answers

Answer:

The expected value of each warranty sold is $23.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.8% probability of the product failling.

If the product fails, the company will lose 400 - 27 = $373. So a net value of -373.

100 - 0.8 = 99.2% probability of the product not failling.

If the product does not fail, the company gains $27.

What is the company's expected value of each warranty sold?

We multiply each outcome by its probability.

0.008*(-373) + 0.992*27 = 23.8

The expected value of each warranty sold is $23.8.

Ben bought 4 volleyballs and 5 footballs for $352.65 altogether. If Ben’s brother bought 2 volleyballs and 4 footballs for $249.12 altogether, what was the price of each football?

Jodie Meeks's Free Throws During the 2015-16 NBA season, Jodie Meeks of the Detroit Pistons had a free throw shooting percentage of 0.906 . Assume that the probability Jodie Meeks makes any given free throw is fixed at 0.906 , and that free throws are independent.If Jodie Meeks shoots 6 free throws in a game, what is the probability that he makes at least 5 of them?

Answers

Answer:

0.8973

Step-by-step explanation:

Relevant data provided in the question as per the question below:

Free throw shooting percentage = 0.906

Free throws = 6

At least = 5

Based on the above information, the probability is

Let us assume the X signifies the number of free throws

So,  Then X ≈ Bin (n = 6, p = 0.906)

[tex]P = (X = x) = $\sum\limits_{x}^6 (0.906)^x (1 - 0.906)^{6-x}, x = 0,1,2,3,.., 6[/tex]

Now

The Required probability = P(X ≥ 5) = P(X = 5) + P(X = 6)

[tex]= $\sum\limits_{5}^6 (0.906)^5 (1 - 0.906)^{6-5} + $\sum\limits_{6}^6 (0.906)^6 (1 - 0.906)^{6-6}[/tex]

= 0.8973

A survey was sent out to compare the proportion of adults who use their car horns when driving for two age populations (1=younger adults, defined as between 20 and 39 years old and 2 =older adults, defined as over 60 years old). The following data was obtained from those who responded.

Calculate the 90% confidence interval using the standard normal distribution. Note that 1 =0.52. P2= 0.35, and s.e.(P1-P2) =0.0338. Round to the fourth decimal point. Please enter you answer in the following format: (lower value, upper value)

Use the horn Use the horn
Group Yes No Total
1= younger adults 261 240 501
2= older adults 123 229 352

Answers

Answer:

The  90% confidence interval for the difference between proportions is (0.115, 0.228).

As the value 0 is not included in the interval, we can conclude that there is significant difference in the proportion of youger adults that use the horn and older adults that use the horn.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to calculate the bounds of a 90% confidence interval.

For a 90% CI, the critical value for z is z=1.645.

The sample 1 (younger adults) , of size n1=501 has a proportion of p1=0.521.

[tex]p_1=X_1/n_1=261/501=0.5210[/tex]

The sample 2 (older  adults), of size n2=352 has a proportion of p2=0.3494.

[tex]p_2=X_2/n_2=123/352=0.3494[/tex]

The difference between proportions is (p1-p2)=0.1715.

[tex]p_d=p_1-p_2=0.5210-0.3494=0.1715[/tex]

The pooled proportion, needed to calculate the standard error, is:

[tex]p=\dfrac{X_1+X_2}{n_1+n_2}=\dfrac{261+123}{501+352}=\dfrac{384}{853}=0.4502[/tex]

The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:

[tex]s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_1}+\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.4502*0.5498}{501}+\dfrac{0.4502*0.5498}{352}}\\\\\\s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{0.0005+0.0007}=\sqrt{0.0012}=0.0346[/tex]

Then, the margin of error is:

[tex]MOE=z \cdot s_{p1-p2}=1.645\cdot 0.0346=0.0569[/tex]

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

[tex]LL=(p_1-p_2)-z\cdot s_{p1-p2} = 0.1715-0.0569=0.115\\\\UL=(p_1-p_2)+z\cdot s_{p1-p2}= 0.1715+0.0569=0.228[/tex]

The  90% confidence interval for the difference between proportions is (0.115, 0.228).

Answers

Answer:

24 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for computing the area of a trapezoid is shown below:

As we know that

Area of a trapezium is

[tex]= \frac{1}{2} \times h(a+b)[/tex]

where

h = perpendicular height

The a and b =  length of the parallel sides.

Now,

h = 2 - -2 = 4 units

a = 5 - -3 = 8 units

b = 3 - -1 = 4 units

Now placing these values to the above formula

So, the area of a trapezoid is

[tex]= \dfrac{1}{2} \times 4(8+4)[/tex]

[tex]= 2 \times 12[/tex]

= 24 square units.

Hence we applied the above formula so that the area of trapezoid could come

Answers

Answer:

24.99

Step-by-step explanation:

If the area of the quarter circle is 38.465, then the equation to find this would be

3.14*r^2 / 4 = 38.465. we solve for r, the radius, and get two solutions. 7 and -7. Obviously the length of the radius can't be -7, so we know the radius is 7.

Now we must solve for the perimeter. The perimeter is equal to 2r + (2*3.14*r)/4

Plugging 7 in as the radius, r, we get 24.99 as our final answer.
