The math SAT is scaled so that the mean score is 500 and the standard deviation is 100. Assuming scores are normally distributed, find the probability that a randomly selected student scores

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. P(X>695)=0.026

b. P(X<485)=0.44

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete:

a. higher than 695 on the test.

b. at most 485 on the test.

We have a normal distribution with mean 500 and standard deviation of 100 for the test scores. We will use the z-scores to calculate the probabilties with the standard normal distribution table.

a. We want to calculate the probability that a randomly selected student scores higher than 695.

We calculate the z-score and then we calculate the probability:

[tex]z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{695-500}{100}=\dfrac{195}{100}=1.95\\\\\\P(X>695)=P(z>1.95)=0.026[/tex]

a. We want to calculate the probability that a randomly selected student scores at most 485.

We calculate the z-score and then we calculate the probability:

[tex]z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{485-500}{100}=\dfrac{-15}{100}=-0.15\\\\\\P(X<485)=P(z<-0.15)=0.44[/tex]

Distribute

10x -3x+18 = x+30

Combine like terms

7x + 18 = x+30

Subtract x from each side

An economist wants to estimate the mean per capita income (in thousands of dollars) for a major city in Texas. Suppose that the mean income is found to be $18.5 for a random sample of 2253 people. Assume the population standard deviation is known to be $6.1. Construct the 98% confidence interval for the mean per capita income in thousands of dollars. Round your answers to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

= ( $18.2, $18.8)

Therefore, the 98% confidence interval (a,b) = ( $18.2, $18.8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = $18.50

Standard deviation r = $6.10

Number of samples n = 2253

Confidence interval = 98%

z(at 98% confidence) = 2.33

Substituting the values we have;

$18.5+/-2.33($6.1/√2253 )

$18.5+/-2.33($0.128513644290)

$18.5+/-$0.299436791196

$18.5+/-$0.3

= ( $18.2, $18.8)

Therefore at 98% confidence interval (a,b) = ( $18.2, $18.8)

A delivery truck is transporting boxes of two sizes: large and small. The large boxes weigh 50 pounds each, and the small boxes weigh 35 pounds each. There are 115 boxes in all. If the truck is carrying a total of 5000 pounds in boxes, how many of each type of box is it carrying?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, "boxes of two sizes" means we can assign variables:

  Let x = number of large boxes

       y = number of small boxes

 

 "There are 115 boxes in all"    means    x + y = 115      [eq1]

 

Now, the pounds for each kind of box is:

    (pounds per box)*(number of boxes)

 

So,

  pounds for large boxes     +    pounds for small boxes      =    4125 pounds

                 "the truck is carrying a total of 4125 pounds in boxes"

 

        (50)*(x)                   +              (25)*(y)                  = 4125    [eq2]

 

It is important to find two equations so we can solve for two variables.

 

Solve for one of the variables in eq1 then replace (substitute) the expression for that variable in eq2.  Let's solve for x:

   x = 115 - y          [from eq1]

 

    50(115-y) + 25y = 4125             [from eq2]

     5750 - 50y  + 25y = 4125           [distribute]

     5750 - 25y = 4125

      -25y = -1625

         y = 65             [divide both sides by (-25)]

 

 There are 65 small boxes.

 

Put that value into either equation (now, which is easier?) to solve for x:

  x = 115 - y

  x = 115 - 65

  x = 50

 

  There are 50 large boxes.

 

Check (very important):

 

Is   50+65 = 115   ?       [eq1]

         115 = 115   ?yes

Is  50(50) + 25(65) = 4125   ?

     2500 + 1625 = 4125   ?

       4125 = 4125   ? ye

If the test ψ=1(Tn>qα/2) is designed to have asymptotic level 5% , would you reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis H0:p∗=1/2 for this data set?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To be able to draw a conclusion from the data given, lets find out the p value using the t score and this will be used to make a conclusion.

If the p value is less than 0.05 then, we will reject the null but if otherwise we will fail to reject the null.

Using a p value calculator with a t score of 2.83, significance level 0.05 and the test is a two tailed test, the p value is 0.004655 which is less than 0.05 and the result is significant.

This we will reject the null hypothesis H0:p∗=1/2 for this data set.

An aeroplane X whose average speed is 50°km/hr leaves kano airport at 7.00am and travels for 2 hours on a bearing 050°. It then changes its course and flies on a bearing 1200 to an airstrip A. Another aeroplane Y leaves kano airport at 10.00am and flies on a straight course to the airstrip A. both planes arrives at the airstrip A at 11.30am. calculate the average speed of Y to three significant figures. the direction of flight Y to the nearest degree

Answers

Answer:

(a)123 km/hr

(b)39 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Plane X with an average speed of 50km/hr travels for 2 hours from T (Kano Airport) to point U in the diagram.

Distance = Speed X Time

Therefore: Distance from T to U =50km/hr X 2 hr =100 km

It moves from Point U at 9.00 am and arrives at the airstrip A by 11.30am.

Distance, UA=50km/hr X 2.5 hr =125 km

Using alternate angles in the diagram:

[tex]\angle U=110^\circ[/tex]

(a)First, we calculate the distance traveled, TA by plane Y.

Using Cosine rule

[tex]u^2=t^2+a^2-2ta\cos U\\u^2=100^2+125^2-2(100)(125)\cos 110^\circ\\u^2=34175.50\\u=184.87$ km[/tex]

Plane Y leaves kano airport at 10.00am and arrives at 11.30am

Time taken =1.5 hour

Therefore:

Average Speed of Y

[tex]=184.87 \div 1.5\\=123.25$ km/hr\\\approx 123$ km/hr (correct to three significant figures)[/tex]

b)Flight Direction of Y

Using Law of Sines

[tex]\dfrac{t}{\sin T} =\dfrac{u}{\sin U}\\\dfrac{125}{\sin T} =\dfrac{184.87}{\sin 110}\\123 \times \sin T=125 \times \sin 110\\\sin T=(125 \times \sin 110) \div 184.87\\T=\arcsin [(125 \times \sin 110) \div 184.87]\\T=39^\circ $ (to the nearest degree)[/tex]

The direction of flight Y to the nearest degree is 39 degrees.

An OSU senior is studying for exams in psychology and economics. The student has time to read 50 pages of psychology and 10 pages of economics. Or, in the same amount of time the student could read 30 pages of psychology and 70 pages of economics. How many pages of economics can the student read instead of reading just 1 page of psychology

Answers

Answer:

3 Pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the pages of economics read = eLet the pages of psychology read = pLet the total time taken on each instance=t

In the first instance, the student has time to read 50 pages of psychology and 10 pages of economics.

t=50p+10e

The student could read 30 pages of psychology and 70 pages of economics.

t=30p+70e

Since the two situations take the same amount of time, we have:

50p+10e=30p+70e

Collect like terms

50p-30p=70e-10e

20p=60e

Divide both sides by 20

p=3e

Therefore, in the time it will take the student to read 1 page of psychology, the student can read 3 pages of economics.

a 680g patient comes in with diarrhea. the doctor orders anti-diarrhea medication at a dosage of 15 mcg/kg TID x 3 days. rhye medication concentration 50mcg/ml. What is the patients dose in MCG? What is the total volume of medication you will send home?

Answers

Answer:

dose in MCG = 10.2 mcg

Total volume to be sent home = 1.836 ml (1836μl)

Step-by-step explanation:

weight of patient = 680g

dosage in mcg of medication = 15mcg/kg

This means that

for every 1kg weight, 15mcg is given,

since 1kg = 1000g, we can also say that for every 1000g weigh, 15mcg is given.

1000g = 15mcg

1g = 15/1000 mcg = 0.015 mcg

∴ 680g = 0.015 × 680 = 10.2 mcg

Dosage in MCG = 10.2 mcg

Next, we are also told ever ml volume of the drug contains 50 mcg weight of the drug (50mcg/ml). This can also be written as:

50mcg = 1 ml

1 mcg = 1/50 ml = 0.02 ml

∴ 10.2 mcg = 10.2 × 0.02 = 0.204 ml

since the medication is to be taken TID (three times daily) for 3 days, the total number of times the drug is to be taken = 9 times.

therefore, the total volume required = 0.204 × 9 = 1.836 ml (1836 μl)

A package of 10 batteries is checked to determine if there are any dead batteries. Four batteries are checked. If one or more are dead, the package is not sold. What is the probability that the package will not be sold if there are actually three dead batteries in the package

Answers

Answer:

There is a probability of 76% of not selling the package if there are actually three dead batteries in the package.

Step-by-step explanation:

With a 10-units package of batteries with 3 dead batteries, the sampling can be modeled as a binomial random variable with:

n=4 (the amount of batteries picked for the sample).p=3/10=0.3 (the proportion of dead batteries).k≥1 (the amount of dead batteries in the sample needed to not sell the package).

The probability of having k dead batteries in the sample is:

[tex]P(x=k) = \dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}q^{n-k}[/tex]

Then, the probability of having one or more dead batteries in the sample (k≥1) is:

[tex]P(x\geq1)=1-P(x=0)\\\\\\P(x=0) = \dbinom{4}{0} p^{0}q^{4}=1*1*0.7^4=0.2401\\\\\\P(x\geq1)=1-0.2401=0.7599\approx0.76[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

  see below

Step-by-step explanation:

In my opinion, Antoinette should make use of a graphing calculator to find the solution. (second attachment)

__

Slope-intercept form can be useful for graphing, so it often works well to start with equations in that form. If that is Antoinette's strategy, she should rewrite the first equation to that form. The second equation is already in slope-intercept form.

In doing that rewrite, she will want to get the y-term on one side of the equal sign by itself. She can do that by subtracting 2x from the first equation:

  -7y = -2x +56

As a final step in her rewrite, she would divide by -7 to get ...

  y = 2/7x +56

This 2nd equation has a positive slope of 2/7. The slope of the second equation is similarly the x-coefficient, -2.5. Neither is 4 and they have different signs.

What are two possible measures of the angle below?

Answers

The smaller angle, inside the bold lines, is -90 degrees.

The larger angle, outside the bold lines, is 270 degrees.

Angles can be measured in increments between -90° and 630°.

What angles are created when two lines cross one other?

Two straight lines are considered to be intersecting if they come together at the same point. The intersection of two lines is known as the junction point. When two lines intersect, four angles are produced. The sum of the four angles is always 360 degrees.

Two straight lines that cross one other and produce right angles are called perpendicular lines. There are four right angles created when two perpendicular lines cross.

There are two types of angle connections produced when lines intersect:

Congruent opposite angles

Nearby angles are helpful

The information is

Let O (0, 0) be the origin, where the y and x axes must connect.

Thus, the angles on the four quadrants of the axis are produced.

The fourth quadrant's crossing lines create an angle that is given by For, the anticlockwise measure, A = -90°.

B = 360n - 180° for the clockwise measure, and n = 3 in this case.

Hence, when we simplify, we obtain

The second angle has a length of = 630°.

As a result, the angles are 90° and 630°.

The quarter circle's area is 38.47 yard²

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a full circle is pi * r ²

The area of a quarter circle is 1/4 * pi * r ²

Given:

Use 3.14 for pi

Round to the nearest hundredths.

Perimeter of quarter circle is 24.99 yards

For r you must leave it as 'r' because we do not know it for now...

1. Circumference of a full circle = 2* pi * r

2. 1/4 * ( 2 * pi * r )

1/4 * ( 2 * 3.14 * r )

1/2 * 3.14 * r

1.57 * r

3 Since r = 'r'

We have to 2 sides running from the centre of the 'pie' to the left and right of the quarter circle which both have a length of exactly 'r'. So you just add 2 * r.

4. The outcome of step 2 + step 3 is the perimeter of quarter circle, which was given as 24.99 inch

1.57 * r + 2 * r = 24.99

( 1.57 + 2 ) * r = 24.99

3.57 * r = 24.99

Divide left and right of the = sign by 3.57

3.57 / 3.57 * r = 24.99 / 3.57

1 * r = 24.99 / 3.57

r = 7

The area of a quarter circle is 1/4 * pi * r ²

1/4 * pi * 7²

1/4 * 49 * pi

49/4 * pi

49/4 * 3.14

38.465

Round to the nearest hundredths gives 38.47 yard²

The quarter circle's area is 38.47 yard²
