Answer 1

Answer:

(a)  0.2650

(b)  0.0111

(c)  0.0105

(d)  0.0006

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

In microbiology, colony-forming units (CFUs) are used to measure the number of microorganisms present in a sample.

Suppose that the number of CFUs that appear after incubation follows a Poisson distribution with mean μ = 15.       &;

If the area of the agar plate is 75cm²;

what is the probability  of observing fewer than 4 CFUs in a 25 cm² area of the plate.

We can determine the mean number of CFUs that appear on a 25cm² area of the plate as follows;

75cm²/25cm² = 3

Since;

mean  μ = 15  

mean number of CFUs that appear on a 25cm² = 15/3 = 5 CFUs

Thus ; the probability of observing fewer than 4 CFUs in a 25 cm² area of the plate is estimated as:

= P(X < 4)

Using the EXCEL FUNCTION ( = poisson.dist(3, 5, TRUE) )

we have ;

P(X < 4) = 0.2650

b) If you were to count the total number of CFUs in 5 plates, what is the probability you would observe more than 95 CFUs?

Given that the total number of CFUs = 5 plates; then the mean number of CFUs in 5 plates =  15×5 = 75 CFUs

The probability is therefore = P( X > 95 )

= 1 - P(X ≤ 95)

= 1 - poisson.dist(95,75,TRUE) ( by using the excel function)

= 0.0111

c) Repeat the probability calculation in part (b) but now use the normal approximation.

Let assume that the mean and the variance of the poisson distribution are equal

Then;

[tex]X \sim N (\mu = 75 , \sigma^2 = 75)[/tex]

We are to repeated the probability calculation in part (b) from above;

So:

P( X > 95 )

use the normal approximation

From standard normal variable table:

P(Z > 2.3094)

Using normal table

P(Z > 2.3094) = 0.0105

(d)  Find the difference between this value and your answer in part (b).

So;

the difference between the value in part c and part b is;

=  0.0111 - 0.0105

[tex]= 6*10^{-4}[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Hypotenuse = 5√2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle ABC:

The legs are 5 units each

Opposite = 5unit

Adjacent = 5unit

Triangle ACB:

lengths of sides A C and C B are 5

The legs are 5 units each

Leg =AC = Opposite = 5unit

Leg = CB = Adjacent = 5unit

The hypotenuse for both ∆ACB is unknown. Since ∆ACB is a right angled triangle, we would apply Pythagoras theorem to find the hypotenuse.

Using Pythagoras theorem:

Hypotenuse ² = opposite ² + adjacent ²

Hypotenuse ² = leg² + leg²

AB = hypotenuse in ∆ACB

AB² = 5² + 5²

AB² = 25+25 = 50

AB = √50 = √(25×2)

AB = 5√2

Hypotenuse = 5√2 units

A water tower in New York City has the shape of a cylinder with a cone on top. The cylinder has a diameter of 12 feet and a height of 15 feet. The roof has an inclination angle of 25o . There are 7.48 gallons in a cubic foot. If residents of an apartment building are using the water from the tower at an average rate of 56 gallons per minute, determine how long, to the nearest minute, it will take to drain the entire tower.

Answers

Answer:

number of minutes to drain the entire tower = 241 minutes(nearest minutes)

Step-by-step explanation:

The water tower has the shape of  a cylinder with a cone on top . The volume of the water tower can be find when you find the sum of the volume of the cylinder and the cone.

Therefore,

volume of the cylinder = πr²h

where

r = 12/2 = 6 ft

h = 15 ft

volume = π × 6² × 15

volume = π × 36 × 15

volume of the cylinder = 540π

Volume of the cone = 1/3πr²h

r = 6 ft

Using tangential ratio we can find the height which is the opposite side of the triangle

tan 25° = opposite/adjacent

tan 25° = h/6

cross multiply

h = 6 tan 25°

h = 6 × 0.46630765815

h = 2.79784594893

h = 2.8 ft

volume of the cone  =  1/3πr²h

volume = 1/3 × π × 36 × 2.8

volume = 100.8π/3

volume = 33.6π

Volume of the tower system = 540π + 33.6π =  573.6π

volume of the tower system = 573.6 × 3.14 = 1801.104 ft³

1 cubic ft  = 7.48 gallons

1801.104 cubic fit = ? gallons

cross multiply

gallons = 1801.104 × 7.48

gallons = 13472.25792  gallons

The residents drains the water at the rate of 56 gallons per minute. Therefore,

56 gallons = 1 minutes

13472.25792  gallons = ? minutes

number of minutes = 13472.25792  /56

number of minutes = 240.576034286

number of minutes to drain the entire tower = 241 minutes(nearest minutes)

Billy’s Restaurant ordered 200 flowers for Mother’s Day. They ordered carnations at

$1.50 each, roses at $5.75 each, and daisies at $2.60 each. They ordered mostly

carnations, and 20 fewer roses than daisies. The total order came to $589.50. Write

a system of linear equations that can be used to find c, the number of carnations, r,

the number of roses, and d, the number of daisies.

Answers

Answer:

c+r+d= 200

1.50c+5.75r+2.60d= 589.50

r=d-20

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given you have that Billy's restaurant ordered roses, daisies and carnations that total 200 flowers. The first equation is:

c+r+d= 200

c= number of carnations

r= number of roses

d= number of daisies

Also, you can say that the sum of the results of multiplying the price of each flower for its quantity is equal to $589.50. The second equation is:

1.50c+5.75r+2.60d= 589.50

Besides, from the statement you know there are 20 fewer roses than daisies and from that you can write the third equation:

r= d-20

The system of linear equations that can be used to find c, the number of carnations, r,  the number of roses, and d, the number of daisies is:

c+r+d= 200

1.50c+5.75r+2.60d= 589.50

r=d-20

Hello!

The variable of interest is

Y: number of new leaves of Bromeliads grown under different types of fertilization.

Factor: Type of fertilizer

Treatments: 1. Nitrogen, 2. Phosphorus, 3. Both, 4. Neither (control group)

To compare these four groups you have to conduct an ANOVA

The hypotheses are:

H₀: μ₁= μ₂= μ₃= μ₄

H₁: At least one population mean is different from the others.

α: 0.05

a)

The degrees of freedom of the F-statistic are:

[tex]F_{I-1;N-I}= F_{4-1;31-4}= F_{3;27}[/tex]

I= number of treatments

N= total number of experimental units (in all groups)

MSTreatments= SStreatments/DfTreatments= 39.37/3= 13.12

MSError=SSError/DfError= 72.18/27= 2.67

[tex]F= \frac{MS_{Treatments}}{MS_{Error}} = \frac{13.12}{2.67} = 4.91[/tex]

c)

This test is one-tailed to the right and so is the p-value:

P(F₃;₂₇≥4.91)= 1 - P(F₃;₂₇<4.91)= 1 - 0.9925= 0.0075

d)

The decision rule using the p-value is:

If p-value ≤ α, reject the null hypothesis.

If p-value > α, do not reject the null hypothesis.

The p-value is less than α, the test is significant at 5% significance level.

"We have significant evidence at the 5% level that the means are not all the same."

Standard deviation;SD = 3.15 in

The first quartile is the 25th percentile, which means it's where 25% of the data falls.

Now from the normal distribution table attached, we can see that the z-value for 25% or 0.25 is approximately

-0.675.

To find the height that represents the first quartile of these students, we will use the formula;

z = (height - mean)/(SD)

Making height the subject ;

height = (z × SD) + mean

Plugging in the relevant values to obtain;

Height = (-0.675 × 3.15) + 49.9

Height ≈ 47.77 inches

What is the range of the function f(x)= 1/2sin(2x-pi)

Answers

The answer is [-1/2-1/2]

The range of the function f(x) is [-1/2, 1/2].

What is the range of a function?

The range is the set of possible output values, which are shown on the y-axis. The range of a function, f is the set of all values f(x) , such that x is in the domain of f. Graphically speaking, the range is the set of all y such that (x,y) is a point on the graph of f.

For the given situation,

The function f(x) = 1/2sin(2x-π)

The graph below shows the range of the function f(x) = 1/2sin(2x-π) graphically.

As the range of sinx function is [-1, 1], the range of sin2x is also [-1, 1].

Let us consider [tex]\theta = 2x-\pi[/tex]

⇒ Then, [tex]sin \theta[/tex] lies in the range [tex][-1,1][/tex]

⇒ [tex]-1\leq sin(2x-\pi )\leq 1[/tex]

⇒ [tex](\frac{1}{2} )(-1)\leq sin(2x-\pi )\leq( 1)(\frac{1}{2} )[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\frac{-1}{2} \leq sin(2x-\pi )\leq\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the range of the function f(x) is [-1/2, 1/2].

Answer:

Range : { -3,0,4,6}

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of the function is the output values

Range : { -3,0,4,6}

Answer:

C. {-3, 0 ,4, 6}

Step-by-step explanation:

→The range is the total of y-intercepts/outputs. In this case, looking at the function, you can see that the y-intercepts/outputs are 0, -3, 4, and 6.

→The others numbers are the x-intercepts/inputs, which would be the domain of the function.

The National Cancer Institute estimates that 3.65% of women in their 60s get breast cancer. A mammogram can typically identify correctly 85% of cancer cases and 95% of cases without cancer. What is the probability that a woman in her 60s who has a positive test actually has breast cancer?

Answers

Answer:

39.17% probability that a woman in her 60s who has a positive test actually has breast cancer

Step-by-step explanation:

Bayes Theorem:

Two events, A and B.

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(B)*P(A|B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which P(B|A) is the probability of B happening when A has happened and P(A|B) is the probability of A happening when B has happened.

In this question:

Event A: Positive test.

Event B: Having breast cancer.

3.65% of women in their 60s get breast cancer

This means that [tex]P(B) = 0.0365[/tex]

A mammogram can typically identify correctly 85% of cancer cases

This means that [tex]P(A|B) = 0.85[/tex]

Probability of a positive test.

85% of 3.65% and 100-95 = 5% of 100-3.65 = 96.35%. So

[tex]P(A) = 0.85*0.0365 + 0.05*0.9635 = 0.0792[/tex]

What is the probability that a woman in her 60s who has a positive test actually has breast cancer?

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{0.0365*0.85}{0.0792} = 0.3917[/tex]

39.17% probability that a woman in her 60s who has a positive test actually has breast cancer
