b)[45,70]

c)[50,60]

d)[45,65]

e)[47,63]

d)none of the above

Answer:

(B) 0.2843

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d be the difference in proportions from Country X and Country Y who were first married between the ages of 18 and 32.

Then hypotheses are

[tex]H_{0}[/tex]: d=0.15

[tex]H_{a}[/tex]: d<0.15

Test statistic can be found using the equation

[tex]z=\frac{p1-p2-0.15}{\sqrt{{p*(1-p)*(\frac{1}{n1} +\frac{1}{n2}) }}}[/tex] where

Then [tex]z=\frac{0.36-0.26-0.15}{\sqrt{{0.31*0.69*(\frac{1}{60} +\frac{1}{50}) }}}[/tex] ≈ 0.5646

p-value of test statistic is ≈ 0.2843

p-value states the probability that the difference in proportions between a random sample of 60 adults from Country X and a random sample of 50 adults from Country Y who were first married between the ages of 18 and 32 is at least 0.15

To find the probability that the difference in proportions between a random sample of 60 adults from Country X and a random sample of 50 adults from Country Y who were first married between the ages of 18 and 32 is greater than 0.15, we need to calculate the sampling distribution of the difference in proportions. The answer is (E) 0.7157.

To find the probability that the difference in proportions between a random sample of 60 adults from Country X and a random sample of 50 adults from Country Y who were first married between the ages of 18 and 32 is greater than 0.15, we need to calculate the sampling distribution of the difference in proportions.

The standard error of the difference in proportions can be calculated as:

SE = sqrt((p1 * (1 - p1)) / n1 + (p2 * (1 - p2)) / n2)

where p1 and p2 are the proportions of first married adults from Country X and Country Y respectively, and n1 and n2 are the sample sizes for Country X and Country Y.

Let's plug in the values:

SE = sqrt((0.36 * (1 - 0.36)) / 60 + (0.26 * (1 - 0.26)) / 50)

SE = sqrt(0.0024 / 60 + 0.0016 / 50)

SE = sqrt(0.00004 + 0.00003)

SE = sqrt(0.00007)

SE ≈ 0.00836660027

Now, we can use the standard normal distribution to find the probability that the difference in proportions is greater than 0.15 by calculating the z-score and looking it up in the z-table or using a calculator.

Z = (0.15 - 0) / 0.00836660027

Z ≈ 17.914253

The probability that the difference in proportions is greater than 0.15 is very close to 1, which means it is highly likely that the difference in proportions will be greater than 0.15 in a random sample. Therefore, the answer is (E) 0.7157.

Answer:

a. 95​% confidence interval estimate for the population mean amount of paint included in a​ 1-gallon can is 0.998±0.0055

b.  No, because a​ 1-gallon paint can containing exactly​ 1-gallon of paint lies within the 95​% confidence interval.

c. Yes.  The population amount of paint per can is assumed normally distributed, because confidence interval calculations assume normal distribution of the parameter.

d. 90% confidence interval is 0.998±0.0046. ​The answer in b. didn't change; 1-gallon paint can containing exactly​ 1-gallon of paint lies within the 90​% confidence interval. The manager doesn't have a right to complain to the manufacturer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval can be calculated using M±ME where

M is the sample mean amount of paint per 1​-gallon can (0.998 gallon)

ME is the margin of error from the mean

And margin of error (ME) can be calculated using the equation

ME=[tex]\frac{z*s}{\sqrt{N} }[/tex] where

Then ME=[tex]\frac{1.96*0.02}{\sqrt{50} }[/tex]≈0.0055

95% confidence interval is 0.998±0.0055

90% confidence interval can be calculated similary, only z statistic is 1.64.

ME=[tex]\frac{1.64*0.02}{\sqrt{50} }[/tex]  ≈0.0046

90% confidence interval is 0.998±0.0046

Answer:

[tex]P(\bar X <m)=0.844[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the mass of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

[tex]X \sim N(\mu,\sigma)[/tex]  

And the z score is defined as:

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

We know that for some amount  m we have this:

[tex]P(X>m)=0.4[/tex]   (a)

[tex]P(X<m)=0.6[/tex]   (b)

We can use the z table or excel in order to find a quantile that satisfy the two conditions. The excel code would be:

"=NORM.INV(0.6,0,1)" and using condition (b) we have that Z=0.253

So we have this:

[tex]0.253=\frac{m-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

If we solve for m from the last equation we got:

[tex]m=0.253\sigma +\mu [/tex]

And let [tex]\bar X[/tex] represent the sample mean, the distribution for the sample mean is given by:

[tex]\bar X \sim N(\mu,\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})[/tex]

And we want this probability:

[tex]P(\bar X<m)[/tex]

We can apply the z score formula for this case given by:

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

[tex]P(\frac{X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}<\frac{m-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{16}}})[/tex]

[tex]P(Z<\frac{4(m-\mu)}{\sigma}[/tex]

If we use the expression obtained for m we got:

[tex]P(Z<\frac{4(0.253\sigma +\mu-\mu)}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]P(Z<\frac{1.012 \sigma}{\sigma})=P(Z<1.012)=0.844[/tex]

Answer:

The average cost function is [tex]\bar C(x)=-\frac{1200}{x}+34[/tex].

The cost function is [tex]C(x)=-1200+34x[/tex].

The fixed costs are -$1200.

Step-by-step explanation:

If [tex]y = C(x)[/tex] is the total cost of producing x items, then the average cost, or cost per unit, is [tex]\bar C(x)=\frac{C(x)}{x}[/tex] and the marginal average cost is [tex]\bar C'(x)=\frac{d}{dx}\bar C(x)[/tex].

We know that the marginal average cost is given by

[tex]\bar C'(x)=\frac{1200}{x^2}[/tex]

[tex]\bar C'(x)=\frac{1200}{x^2}\\\\\bar C(x)=\int {\frac{1200}{x^2}} \, dx[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Take\:the\:constant\:out}:\quad \int a\cdot f\left(x\right)dx=a\cdot \int f\left(x\right)dx\\\\1200\cdot \int \frac{1}{x^2}dx\\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:Power\:Rule}:\quad \int x^adx=\frac{x^{a+1}}{a+1},\:\quad \:a\ne -1\\\\1200\cdot \frac{x^{-2+1}}{-2+1}\\\\-\frac{1200}{x}\\\\\mathrm{Add\:a\:constant\:to\:the\:solution}\\\\-\frac{1200}{x}+C[/tex]

Because [tex]\bar C(100)=22[/tex] C is

[tex]22=-\frac{1200}{100}+C\\C=34[/tex]

And the average cost function is

[tex]\bar C(x)=-\frac{1200}{x}+34[/tex]

[tex]x\cdot \bar C(x)=C(x)\\\\C(x)=(-\frac{1200}{x}+34)\cdot x\\\\C(x)=-1200+34x[/tex]

Cost functions are express as

[tex]C=(fixed \:costs)+(variable \:costs)\\C=a+bx[/tex]

According with this definition and the cost function that we have the fixed costs are -$1200.

To find the average cost function, use the given formula and substitute the value of x. To find the cost function, integrate the average cost function. The fixed costs are $22.

To find the average cost function, we will substitute the value of C^overbar(x) into the formula. The average cost function is given by C^overbar(x) = 1,200/x^2.

To find the cost function, we will integrate the average cost function. The cost function m C(x) is the integral of C^overbar(x) with respect to x. F

inally, to find the fixed costs, we will substitute the value of C^overbar(100) into the average cost function.

The average cost function is C^overbar(x) = 1,200/x^2.

The cost function m C(x) = 1,200/x.

The fixed costs are $22.

Answer:

a) [tex]t=\frac{524.6-550}{\frac{27.682}{\sqrt{5}}}=-2.052[/tex]    

[tex]p_v =P(t_{(4)}<-2.052)=0.055[/tex]    

If we compare the p value and the significance level given [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] we see that [tex]p_v>\alpha[/tex] so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.  

We can say that at 5% of significance the true mean is not significantly different from 550.

b) The 95% confidence interval would be given (490.184;559.016).  

We are confident at 95% that the true mean is between (490.184;559.016).

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

Data given and notation  

560, 525, 496, 543, 499

The mean and sample deviation can be calculated from the following formulas:

[tex]\bar X =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i}{n}[/tex]

[tex]s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i -\bar X)}{n-1}}[/tex]

[tex]\bar X=524.6[/tex] represent the sample mean  

[tex]s=27.682[/tex] represent the sample standard deviation  

[tex]n=5[/tex] sample size  

[tex]\mu_o =550[/tex] represent the value that we want to test  

[tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the population mean is equal to 550, the system of hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis:[tex]\mu = 550[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]\mu \neq 550[/tex]  

Since we don't know the population deviation, is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

[tex]t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex] (1)  

t test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic  

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

[tex]t=\frac{524.6-550}{\frac{27.682}{\sqrt{5}}}=-2.052[/tex]  

P-value  

We need to calculate the degrees of freedom first given by:  

[tex]df=n-1=5-1=4[/tex]  

Since is a one-side left tailed test the p value would given by:  

[tex]p_v =P(t_{(4)}<-2.052)=0.055[/tex]  

Conclusion  

If we compare the p value and the significance level given [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] we see that [tex]p_v>\alpha[/tex] so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.  

We can say that at 5% of significance the true mean is not significantly different from 550.

Part b

The confidence interval for a proportion is given by this formula  

[tex]\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2} \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]  

The degrees of freedom are 4 from part a

For the 95% confidence interval the value of [tex]\alpha=1-0.95=0.05[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2=0.025[/tex], with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.  

[tex]t_{\alpha/2}=2.78[/tex]  

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:  

[tex]524.6 - 2.78 \frac{27.682}{\sqrt{5}}=490.184[/tex]  

[tex]524.6 + 2.78 \frac{27.682}{\sqrt{5}}=559.016[/tex]  

And the 95% confidence interval would be given (490.184;559.016).  

We are confident at 95% that the true mean is between (490.184;559.016).

Answer:

The obtained value of the appropriate statistic is ____.

[tex]t=\frac{\bar d -0}{\frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n}}}=\frac{3.8 -0}{\frac{2.775}{\sqrt{5}}}=3.06[/tex]  

d. 3.06

[tex]p_v =2*P(t_{(4)}>3.06) =0.0376[/tex]  

d. reject H0; the class appeared to improve study habits

Step-by-step explanation:

A paired t-test is used to compare two population means where you have two samples in which observations in one sample can be paired with observations in the other sample. For example if we have Before-and-after observations we can use it.  

Let put some notation  

x=before method , y = after method  

x: 10 12 14 16 12

y: 15 14 17 17 20

The system of hypothesis for this case are:  

Null hypothesis: [tex]\mu_y- \mu_x = 0[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis: [tex]\mu_y -\mu_x \neq 0[/tex]  

The first step is define the difference [tex]d_i=y_i-x_i[/tex], that is given so we have:

d: 5,2,3,1,8

The second step is calculate the mean difference  

[tex]\bar d= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n d_i}{n}=3.8[/tex]  

The third step would be calculate the standard deviation for the differences, and we got:  

[tex]s_d =\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (d_i -\bar d)^2}{n-1}} =2.775[/tex]  

The fourth step is calculate the statistic given by :  

[tex]t=\frac{\bar d -0}{\frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n}}}=\frac{3.8 -0}{\frac{2.775}{\sqrt{5}}}=3.06[/tex]  

The next step is calculate the degrees of freedom given by:  

[tex]df=n-1=5-1=4[/tex]  

Now we can calculate the p value, since we have a two tailed test the p value is given by:  

[tex]p_v =2*P(t_{(4)}>3.06) =0.0376[/tex]  

The p value is less than the significance level given [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex], so then we can conclude that we reject the null hypothesis.

d. reject H0; the class appeared to improve study habits

Answer: [tex]\dfrac{7}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : When a coin is tossed twice , the total outcomes will become

HHH , HHT , HTH , THH , TTH , THT , HTT ,TTT

Total outcomes = 8

Favorable outcomes to obtain 1 and 3 inclusive = HHT , HTH , THH , TTH , THT , HTT ,TTT

Number of favorable outcomes = 7

Probability that the number of tails obtained will be between 1 and 3 inclusive = [tex]\dfrac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{7}{8}[/tex]

Hence, the probability that the number of tails obtained will be between 1 and 3 inclusive [tex]=\dfrac{7}{8}[/tex]

Answer:

Square the expressions to see the difference.

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]$ \sqrt{(m + n)} $[/tex].

Squaring this we have: [tex]$ (\sqrt{m + n})^2 = m + n $[/tex]

Now, [tex]$ \sqrt{m} + \sqrt{n} $[/tex]

Squaring this we get: [tex]$ (\sqrt{m})^2 + (\sqrt{n})^2 = m + n + 2 \sqrt{mn} $[/tex]

For the two expressions to be equal, we should have

[tex]$ m + n = m + n +2\sqrt{mn} $[/tex] ⇔ [tex]$ \sqrt{mn} = 0 $[/tex].

This is possible iff mn = 0. i.e, m = 0 or n = 0.

Otherwise, they are not equal.

When m = 5 and n = 4.

[tex]$ \sqrt{5 + 4} = \sqrt{9} = 3 $[/tex]

[tex]$ \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{4} = \sqrt{5} + 2 $[/tex]

First is an integer. Second is an irrational number.

Clearly, they are not equal.

Answer:

The best predicted calorie count for a cereal with a measured sugar amount of 0.40 g is 3.864

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

he linear correlation coefficient is r= 0.765 and the regression equation is [tex]\hat y= 3.46 + 1.01\times x[/tex]

The mean of the 16 amounts of sugar is 0.295 grams and the mean of the 16 calorie counts is 3.76.We need to find the best predicted calorie count for a cereal with a measured sugar amount of 0.40 g

Substitute x = 0.40 in the given equation.

[tex]\hat y= 3.46 + 1.01\times 0.40[/tex]

[tex]\hat y= 3.46 + 0.404[/tex]

[tex]\hat y= 3.864[/tex]

Hence, the best predicted calorie count for a cereal with a measured sugar amount of 0.40 g is 3.864

Answer:

There is enough evidence to make the conclusion that the population mean amount of time to assemble the Meat Man barbecue is not equal to 10 minutes (P-value=0.009).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to perform an hypothesis test on the mean.

The null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \mu=10\\\\H_1: \mu \neq 10[/tex]

The significance level is [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex].

The test statistic t can be calculated as:

[tex]t=\frac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{N} } =\frac{11.2-10}{3.1/\sqrt{50} }=2.737[/tex]

The degrees of freedom are:

[tex]df=N-1=50-1=49[/tex]

The P-value (two-tailed test) for t=2.737 and df=49 is P=0.00862.

This P-value (0.009) is smaller than the significance level, so the effect is significant. The null hypothesis is rejected.

There is enough evidence to make the conclusion that the population mean amount of time to assemble the Meat Man barbecue is not equal to 10 minutes.

Final answer:

A hypothesis test can be conducted to test the claim made in the commercial for the new Meat Man Barbecue. The test results indicate that there is evidence to support that the population mean assembly time is not equal to 10 minutes.

Explanation:

To test the claim made in the commercial for the new Meat Man Barbecue, a hypothesis test can be conducted. The null hypothesis, H0, states that the population mean assembly time is 10 minutes, while the alternative hypothesis, Ha, states that it is not equal to 10 minutes. The test statistic to use in this case is the t-test, as we are comparing the sample mean to a known value. The p-value for this test is 0.009, which is less than the significance level of 0.05. Therefore, we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is evidence to support that the population mean assembly time is not equal to 10 minutes.

Answer:

The probability that a student earns a grade of A is 1/7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let E be an event and S be the sample space. The probability of E, denoted by P(E) could be computed as:

P(E) = n(E) / n(S)

As the total number of students = n(S) = 35

Students getting the grade A = n(E) = 5

So, the probability that a student earns a grade of A:

                      P(E) = n(E) / n(S)

                              = 5/35

                              = 1/7

Hence, the probability that a student earns a grade of A is 1/7.

To calculate the probability that Kim wins the match, we sum the probabilities of winning in 2 sets, 3 sets, and 4 sets. The probability that Kim wins the match is 0.6553. The probability that Kim wins the match in exactly 2 sets is 0.2339. The probability that 3 sets are played is 0.1728.

Explanation:

To calculate the probability that Kim wins the match, we need to consider the different possible outcomes. Kim can win the match in two sets, which happens with a probability of [tex](0.64)^2 = 0.4096[/tex] . Kim can also win the match in three sets, which happens with a probability of [tex](0.64)^2 * (1-0.64) * (1-0.64) = 0.1728[/tex]. And finally, Kim can win the match in four sets, which happens with a probability of [tex](0.64)^2 * (1-0.64)^2 = 0.0729.[/tex] Therefore, the probability that Kim wins the match is the sum of these probabilities: 0.4096 + 0.1728 + 0.0729 = 0.6553.

To calculate the probability that Kim wins the match in exactly 2 sets, we use the probability of winning a set twice and the probability of losing a set once:[tex](0.64)^2 * (1-0.64) = 0.2339.[/tex]

To calculate the probability that 3 sets are played, we need to consider the different possible outcomes. Kim can win the match in three sets, which happens with a probability of [tex](0.64)^2[/tex]* (1-0.64) * (1-0.64) = 0.1728. Therefore, the probability that 3 sets are played is 0.1728.

Hello!

Your study variable is:

X: Time a customer stays in a certain restaurant. (min)

X~N(μ; σ²)

The population standard distribution is σ= 17 min

Sample n= 50

Sample mean X[bar]= 51.8 min

Sample standard deviation S= 27.68

You are asked to construct a 99% Confidence Interval. Since the variable has a normal distribution and the population variance is known, the statistic to use is the standard normal Z. The formula to construct the interval is:

X[bar] ± [tex]Z_{1-\alpha /2}[/tex]*(σ/√n)

[tex]Z_{1-\alpha /2} = Z_{0.995}= 2.58[/tex]

Upper level: 51.8 - 2.58*(17/√50) = 45.5972 ≅ 45.60 min

Lower level: 51.8 + 2.58*(17/√50) = 58.0027 ≅58.00 min

With a confidence level of 99%, you'd expect that the interval [45.60; 58.00]min will contain the true value of the average time customers spend in a certain restaurant.

The solution is price of 1 slice of pizza  is $ 1.75 and price of 1 bottle of water is $ 1.25

Solution:

Let "p" be the price of 1 slice of pizza

Let "b" be the price of 1 bottle of water

Given that Abby bought two slices of pizza and  three bottles of water for $7.25

So we can frame a equation as:

two slices of pizza x price of 1 slice of pizza  + three bottles of water x price of 1 bottle of water = $ 7.25

[tex]2 \times p + 3 \times b = 7.25[/tex]

2p + 3b = 7.25 ------- eqn 1

Cameron bought four slices of pizza and  one bottle of water for $8.25

So we can frame a equation as:

four slices of pizza x price of 1 slice of pizza  + one bottles of water x price of 1 bottle of water = $ 8.25

[tex]4 \times p + 1 \times b = 8.25[/tex]

4p + 1b = 8.25 ----- eqn 2

Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2 to find values of "p" and "b"

Multiply eqn 1 by 2

4p + 6b = 14.5 ----- eqn 3

Subtract eqn 2 from eqn 3

4p + 6b = 14.5

4p + 1b = 8.25

( - ) ------------------

5b = 6.25

Substitute b = 1.25 in eqn 1

2p + 3b = 7.25

2p + 3(1.25) = 7.25

2p + 3.75 = 7.25

2p = 3.5

Thus the solution is:

price of 1 slice of pizza  = $ 1.75

price of 1 bottle of water = $ 1.25

The cost of one slice of pizza  is $1.75. The cost of one bottle of water  $1.25.

To find the cost of one slice of pizza and one bottle of water, we can set up a system of linear equations based on the information given:

Let p be the cost of one slice of pizza and w be the cost of one bottle of water.

1. Abby's purchase: 2p + 3w = 7.25

2. Cameron's purchase:  4p + 1w = 8.25

We can solve this system using either substitution or elimination. Let's use elimination.

Step 1: Eliminate \w

First, let's multiply the second equation by 3 to align the coefficients of w

3(4p + 1w) = 3(8.25)

12p + 3w = 24.75

Now our system of equations looks like this:

1. 2p + 3w = 7.25

2. 12p + 3w = 24.75

Step 2: Subtract the first equation from the second

12p + 3w) - (2p + 3w) = 24.75 - 7.25

10p = 17.50

Step 3: Solve for P

[tex]\[ p = \frac{17.50}{10} \][/tex]

p = 1.75

So, one slice of pizza costs $1.75

Step 4: Solve for w

Now substitute p = 1.75 back into the first equation:

2(1.75) + 3w = 7.25

w = 1.25

So, one bottle of water costs $1.25

B. Goodness-of-Fit Test

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a professor expects that the grades on a recent exam are normally distributed with a mean of 80 and a standard deviation of 10.

She records the actual distribution of grades and wants to compare it to the normal distribution

For this expected values are to be got assuming normal and the observed and expected are used to calculate chi square.

Depending on the chi square statistic conclusion is made

Here the test to be done is

B) Goodness of fit test.

A is wrong because test of independence is done when there are more than one categorical variable in the rows.

C is wrong because here homogeneity is not tested

Only B is right.

Answer: [tex](98.04,\ 98.36)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Sample size of healthy adults: n= 106

Degree of freedom = df =n-1 = 105

Sample mean body temperature  : [tex]\overline{x}=98.2[/tex]

Sample standard deviation : [tex]s= 0.62[/tex]

Significance level ; [tex]\alpha= 1-0.99=0.01[/tex]

∵ population standard deviation is unknown , so we use t- critical value.

Confidence interval for the population mean :

[tex]\overline{x}\pm t_{\alpha/2, df}\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

Using t-distribution table , we have

Critical value for df = 105 and [tex]\alpha=0.01[/tex]= [tex]t_{\alpha/2, df}=t_{0.005 , 105}=2.623[/tex]

A 99% confidence interval estimate of the mean body temperature of all healthy humans will be :

[tex]98.2\pm (2.623)\dfrac{0.62}{\sqrt{106}}[/tex]

[tex]98.2\pm (2.623)(0.0602197234662)[/tex]

[tex]98.2\pm (0.157956334652)[/tex]

[tex]\approx98.2\pm 0.16[/tex]

[tex](98.2-0.16,\ 98.2+0.16)[/tex]

[tex](98.04,\ 98.36)[/tex]

Hence, a 99% confidence interval estimate of the mean body temperature of all healthy humans = [tex](98.04,\ 98.36)[/tex]

Answer: (0.881, 0.919)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the population proportion of respondents who say the Internet has been a good thing for them personally.

Confidence interval for population proportion is given by :-

[tex]\hat{p}\pm z^*\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}[/tex] , where z* = Critical value ,

[tex]\hat{p}[/tex] = Sample proportion

n = sample size.

As per given , we have

n= 957

[tex]\hat{p}=0.90[/tex]

By z-table , Critical value for 95% confidence interval : z*= 1.96

Then, the 95% confidence interval for the proportion of respondents who say the Internet has been a good thing for them personally. will be :

[tex]0.90\pm 1.96\sqrt{\dfrac{0.90(1-0.90)}{957}}[/tex]

[tex]0.90\pm 1.96\sqrt{0.0000940438871473}[/tex]

[tex]0.90\pm 1.96(0.00969762275753)[/tex]

[tex]\approx0.90\pm 0.019\\\\=(0.90-0.019,\ 0.90+0.019)[/tex]

[tex](0.881,\ 0.919)[/tex]

Hence, the required 95% confidence interval for the proportion of respondents who say the Internet has been a good thing for them personally = (0.881, 0.919)

To develop a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of respondents who say the Internet has been a good thing for them, we can use the formula: CI = p ± Z * sqrt((p * (1 - p)) / n). Plugging in the values, we can calculate a 95% confidence interval of [0.8808, 0.9192].

To develop a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of respondents who say the Internet has been a good thing for them, we can use the formula:

CI = p ± Z * sqrt((p * (1 - p)) / n)

Where:

Plugging in the values, we can calculate:

CI = 0.90 ± 1.96 * sqrt((0.90 * (1 - 0.90)) / 957)

This gives us a 95% confidence interval for the proportion, which is [0.8808, 0.9192]. So we can be 95% confident that the true proportion of respondents who say the Internet has been a good thing for them is between 0.8808 and 0.9192.

Answer:

[tex]p_v =2*P(Z>2.4)=0.016[/tex]  

And we can use the following excel code:

"=2*(1-NORM.DIST(2.4;0;1;TRUE))"

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

n represent the random sample taken

X represent the business students who have personal computers (PC's) at home

[tex]\hat p[/tex] estimated proportion of business students who have personal computers (PC's) at home

[tex]p_o=0.25[/tex] is the value that we want to test

[tex]\alpha[/tex] represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value (variable of interest)  

2) Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion is 0.25:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]p=0.25[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]p \neq 0.25[/tex]  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, and the is given by:  

[tex]z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}[/tex] (1)  

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion [tex]\hat p[/tex] is significantly different from a hypothesized value [tex]p_o[/tex].

3) Calculate the statistic  

For this case the value of the statistic is given by z=2.4 and that's given.

4) Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a bilateral test the p value would be:  

[tex]p_v =2*P(Z>2.4)=0.016[/tex]  

And we can use the following excel code:

"=2*(1-NORM.DIST(2.4;0;1;TRUE))"

Answer:

So the value of score that separates the bottom 99% of data from the top 1% is 33.316.  

And rounded to 1 decimal place would be 33.3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

2) Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the scores for the ACT of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

[tex]X \sim N(21.5,5.2)[/tex]  

Where [tex]\mu=21.5[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=5.2[/tex]

And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:

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

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

[tex]P(X>a)=0.01[/tex]   (a)

[tex]P(X<a)=0.99[/tex]   (b)

Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.  

As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.99 of the area on the left and 0.01 of the area on the right it's z=2.33. On this case P(Z<2.33)=0.99 and P(Z>2.33)=0.01

If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:

[tex]P(X<a)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{a-\mu}{\sigma})=0.99[/tex]  

[tex]P(Z<\frac{a-\mu}{\sigma})=0.99[/tex]

But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:

[tex]Z=2.33<\frac{a-21.2}{5.2}[/tex]

And if we solve for a we got

[tex]a=21.2 +2.33*5.2=33.316[/tex]

So the value of score that separates the bottom 99% of data from the top 1% is 33.316.  

And rounded to 1 decimal place would be 33.3

Answer:

The correct option is C) 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

A small entrepreneurial can develop two product, product A and product B.

If they develop Product A:

There are 50% chance of selling it to the large company with annual purchases of about 20,000 units.

If the large company won't purchase it, then they think they have an 80% chance of placing it with a smaller company, with sales of 15,000 units.

If they develop Product B.

They have a 40% chance of selling it to the large company, resulting in annual sales of about 17,000 units. If the large company doesn't buy it, they have a 50% chance of selling it to the small company with sales of 20,000 units.

If they develop product B than the probability of purchasing by small company is 60% or 0.6

If large company doesn't buy it, then they have 50%or 0.5 chance of selling it to small company.

Hence, the total probability is: [tex]0.6\times0.5=0.3[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is C) 0.3

Final answer:

The probability that Product B will be purchased by the smaller company is 30%, which corresponds to answer choice C.

Explanation:

The probability that Product B will be purchased by the smaller company is calculated by considering that Product B will only be offered to the smaller company if the large company does not purchase it. So, first, we must calculate the probability that the large company does not purchase Product B, which is 1 - 0.4 (since there is a 40% chance that the large company will purchase it). This results in a 60% chance that the large company will not purchase Product B. The probability that Product B will then be purchased by the smaller company is 50% of that 60%, which is calculated as 0.6 × 0.5 = 0.3 or 30%.

Answer:

A sample size of at least 328 students is required.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1-0.9}{2} = 0.05[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex].

So it is z with a pvalue of [tex]1-0.05 = 0.95[/tex], so [tex]z = 1.645[/tex]

Now, find the width M as such

[tex]M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

In this problem, we have that:

[tex]M = 10, \sigma = 110[/tex]

So:

[tex]M = z*\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]10 = 1.645*\frac{110}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]10\sqrt{n} = 180.95[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = 18.095[/tex]

[tex]\begin{cases}x(\theta)=r(\theta)\cos\theta\\y(\theta)=r(\theta)=\sin\theta\end{cases}[/tex]

By the chain rule, we have

[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm d\theta}}{\frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm d\theta}}[/tex]

and by the product rule,

[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm d\theta}=\dfrac{\mathrm dr}{\mathrm d\theta}\cos\theta-r(\theta)\sin\theta[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm d\theta}=\dfrac{\mathrm dr}{\mathrm d\theta}\sin\theta+r(\theta)\cos\theta[/tex]

so that with [tex]\frac{\mathrm dr}{\mathrm d\theta}=e^\theta[/tex], we get

[tex]\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{e^\theta\sin\theta+e^\theta\cos\theta}{e^\theta\cos\theta-e^\theta\sin\theta}=\dfrac{\sin\theta+\cos\theta}{\cos\theta-\sin\theta}=-\dfrac{1+\sin(2\theta)}{\cos(2\theta)}[/tex]

The tangent line is horizontal when the slope is 0; this happens for

[tex]-\dfrac{1+\sin(2\theta)}{\cos(2\theta)}=0\implies\sin(2\theta)=-1\implies2\theta=-\dfrac\pi2+2n\pi\implies\theta=-\dfrac\pi4+n\pi[/tex]

Answer:

Yes, one of the properties of determinants is that they are real numbers (including zero) not matrix. This if the entries of the matrix are real. Determinants can be both positive or negative numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The determinant of a matrix is a number

What is a Matrix?

In mathematics, a matrix is a rectangular array or table of numbers, symbols, or expressions, arranged in rows and columns, which is used to represent a mathematical object or a property of such an object

The determinant of inverse matrix can never be zero.

The determinant of an identity matrix is always 1.

The determinant of a zero matrix is always 0.

Given data ,

Let the matrix be represented as

[tex]A = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}a_{11} &a_{12} \\ a_{21} &a_{22} \\\end{array}\right][/tex]

Let the determinant of the matrix be d

Now , the determinant of the matrix A is calculated as

d = ( a₁₁ ) x ( a₂₂ ) - ( a₁₂ ) x ( a₂₁ )

So , the determinant will be a single number and will not be another matrix

The value of d will be scaling factor for the transformation of a matrix

Hence , the determinant of a matrix is a number

Answer:

The initial population at the beginning of the 10 years was 129.

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of the village may be modeled by the following function.

[tex]P(t) = P_{0}e^{rt}[/tex]

In which P is the population after t hours, [tex]P_{0}[/tex] is the initial population and r is the growth rate, in decimal.

In this problem, we have that:

[tex]P(10) = 158, r = 0.02[/tex].

So

[tex]158 = P_{0}e^{0.02*10}[/tex]

[tex]P_{0} = 158*e^{-0.2}[/tex]

[tex]P_{0} = 129[/tex]

The initial population at the beginning of the 10 years was 129.

The population of the village at the beginning of the 10 years was approximately 130. This is determined by using the formula for exponential growth that is continuously compounded and solving for the initial population.

We can use the formula for exponential growth that is continuously compounded, which is P=Pe^rt, where P is the final population, P is the initial population, r is the growth rate, and t is the time.

In this case, we know that P=158, r=0.02 (2% expressed as a decimal), and t=10. We need to find P.

Substituting the given values into the formula, we get 158=Pe^(0.02*10).

We can calculate e^(0.02*10) using a calculator to get approximately 1.22. Therefore, the equation becomes 158=P*1.22.

To find P, we can divide both sides of the equation by 1.22 resulting in P ≈ 158/1.22 ≈ 129.5. Since we are asked to round up to the next whole number, the original population was approximately 130.

Answer:

8/27 ≈ 29.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Two of the six faces are B, which means four of the six faces are not B.

The probability of rolling not B three times is:

P = (4/6)^3

P = (2/3)^3

P = 8/27

P ≈ 29.6%

Answer:

8/27 = 0.296 = 29.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the die faces are as follows:

A A A   B B    C

i.e :

P( rolls A) = 3/6

P (rolls B) = 2/6

P (rolls C) = 1/6

for any single roll,

P (rolls not B) = P(rolls A) + P(rolls C)

P (rolls not B) = 3/6 + 1/6 = 4/6 = 2/3

for 3 consecutive rolls

P ( B does not appear) = P(rolls not B) * P(rolls not B) * P(rolls not B)

= P(rolls not B) ³

= (2/3)³

= 8/27 = 0.296 = 29.6%

The square root of 81 repeating is 9.05, (Rounded)

Answer:

P-value = 0.0261

We conclude that the machine is under-filling the bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:  

Population mean, μ = 433 gram

Sample mean, [tex]\bar{x}[/tex] = 427 grams

Sample size, n = 26

Alpha, α = 0.05

Sample standard deviation, σ = 15 grams

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

[tex]H_{0}: \mu = 433\text{ grams}\\H_A: \mu < 433\text{ grams}[/tex]

We use one-tailed(left) t test to perform this hypothesis.

Formula:

[tex]t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} }[/tex]

Putting all the values, we have

[tex]t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{427 - 433}{\frac{15}{\sqrt{26}} } = -2.0396[/tex]

Now, we calculate the p-value using the standard table.

P-value = 0.0261

Since the p-value is lower than the significance level, we fail to accept the null hypothesis and reject it.We accept the alternate hypothesis.

We conclude that the machine is under-filling the bags.
