With a height of 68 ​in, Nelson was the shortest president of a particular club in the past century. The club presidents of the past century have a mean height of 70.7 in and a standard deviation of 2.3 in. a. What is the positive difference between Nelson​'s height and the​ mean? b. How many standard deviations is that​ [the difference found in part​ (a)]? c. Convert Nelson​'s height to a z score. d. If we consider​ "usual" heights to be those that convert to z scores between minus2 and​ 2, is Nelson​'s height usual or​ unusual?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a. The positive difference between Nelson's height and the population mean is: [tex] \\ \lvert 68-70.7 \rvert = \lvert 70.7-68 \rvert\;in = 2.7\;in[/tex].

b. The difference found in part (a) is 1.174 standard deviations from the mean (without taking into account if the height is above or below the mean).

c. Nelson's z-score: [tex] \\ z = -1.1739 \approx -1.174[/tex] (Nelson's height is below the population's mean 1.174 standard deviations units).

d. Nelson's height is usual since [tex] \\ -2 < -1.174 < 2[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

The key concept to answer this question is the z-score. A z-score "tells us" the distance from the population's mean of a raw score in standard deviation units. A positive value for a z-score indicates that the raw score is above the population mean, whereas a negative value tells us that the raw score is below the population mean. The formula to obtain this z-score is as follows:

[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [1]

Where

[tex] \\ z[/tex] is the z-score.

[tex] \\ \mu[/tex] is the population mean.

[tex] \\ \sigma[/tex] is the population standard deviation.

From the question, we have that:

Nelson's height is 68 in. In this case, the raw score is 68 in [tex] \\ x = 68[/tex] in.[tex] \\ \mu = 70.7[/tex]in.[tex] \\ \sigma = 2.3[/tex]in.

With all this information, we are ready to answer the next questions:

a. What is the positive difference between Nelson​'s height and the​ mean?

The positive difference between Nelson's height and the population mean is (taking the absolute value for this difference):

[tex] \\ \lvert 68-70.7 \rvert = \lvert 70.7-68 \rvert\;in = 2.7\;in[/tex].

That is, the positive difference is 2.7 in.

b. How many standard deviations is that​ [the difference found in part​ (a)]?

To find how many standard deviations is that, we need to divide that difference by the population standard deviation. That is:

[tex] \\ \frac{2.7\;in}{2.3\;in} \approx 1.1739 \approx 1.174[/tex]

In words, the difference found in part (a) is 1.174 standard deviations from the mean. Notice that we are not taking into account here if the raw score, x, is below or above the mean.

c. Convert Nelson​'s height to a z score.

Using formula [1], we have

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

[tex] \\ z = \frac{68\;in - 70.7\;in}{2.3\;in}[/tex]

[tex] \\ z = \frac{-2.7\;in}{2.3\;in}[/tex]

[tex] \\ z = -1.1739 \approx -1.174[/tex]

This z-score "tells us" that Nelson's height is 1.174 standard deviations below the population mean (notice the negative symbol in the above result), i.e., Nelson's height is below the mean for heights in the club presidents of the past century 1.174 standard deviations units.

d. If we consider​ "usual" heights to be those that convert to z scores between minus2 and​ 2, is Nelson​'s height usual or​ unusual?

Carefully looking at Nelson's height, we notice that it is between those z-scores, because:

[tex] \\ -2 < z_{Nelson} < 2[/tex]

[tex] \\ -2 < -1.174 < 2[/tex]

Then, Nelson's height is usual according to that statement.

A ball thrown into the air from a roof 15 feet above the ground with an initial vertical velocity of 30 ft/sec can be modeled by the equation: . How long will the ball be in the air? What is it’s maximum height?

Answers

Answer:

Total time of flight= 6.3 s

Total Max height= 60.87ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Height above ground = 15ft

Velocity=30ft/sec

Angle = 90°

Max height traveled= U²Sin²tita/2g

Max height traveled= ( 30²*1²)/(2*9.81)

Max height traveled= 900/19.62

Max height traveled= 45.87 ft

Total Max height= 15+45.87= 60.87ft

Time travel to Max height

=( usin90)/g

Time travel to initial position

= (30*sin90)/9.81

= 3.1 s

Time to travel to the ground from Max height

H = 1/2gt²

60.87= 1/2 * 9.81*t²

(60.87*2)/9.81= t²

3.5 = t

Total time of flight = 3.5+3.1

Total time of flight= 6.3 s

In a data distribution, the first quartile, the median and the means are 30.8, 48.5 and 42.0 respectively. If the coefficient skewness is - 0.38
What is the appropriate value of the third quartile

Answers

Answer:

56.45  

Step-by-step explanation:

Coefficient skewness=(Third quartile+ first quartile)-n*Median/Third quartile-first quartile

Third quartile is the unknown?

First quartile is 30.8

n is the number of steps taken from first quartile to reach third quartile which is 2 steps.

coefficient skewness is -0.38

let p represent third quartile

-0.38=(p+30.8)-2(48.5)/p-30.8

by cross multiplication

-0.38(p-30.8)=(p+30.8)-97

-0.38p+ 11.704  =p+30.8-97

-0.38p-p=30.8-97-11.704

A can of pumpkin pie mix contains a mean of 30 ounces and a standard deviation of 2 ounces. The contents of the cans are normally distributed.. Supposed four can of pumpkin pie mix are randomly selected What is the probalility that the average content of cans in sample is between 28.0 ounces and 31.5

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(28<X<31.5)=P(\frac{28-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{31.5-\mu}{\sigma})=P(\frac{28-30}{2}<Z<\frac{31.5-30}{2})=P(-1<z<0.75)[/tex]

We can find this probability with this difference

[tex]P(-1<z<0.75)=P(z<0.75)-P(z<-1)[/tex]

If we use the normal standard distribution or excel we got:

[tex]P(-1<z<0.75)=P(z<0.75)-P(z<-1)=0.773-0.159=0.614[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the weights for a can of pumpkin pie, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

[tex]X \sim N(30,2)[/tex]  

Where [tex]\mu=30[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=2[/tex]

We are interested on this probability

[tex]P(28<X<31.5)[/tex]

We can use the z score formula given by:

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

Using this formula we got:

[tex]P(28<X<31.5)=P(\frac{28-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{31.5-\mu}{\sigma})=P(\frac{28-30}{2}<Z<\frac{31.5-30}{2})=P(-1<z<0.75)[/tex]

We can find this probability with this difference

[tex]P(-1<z<0.75)=P(z<0.75)-P(z<-1)[/tex]

If we use the normal standard distribution or excel we got:

[tex]P(-1<z<0.75)=P(z<0.75)-P(z<-1)=0.773-0.159=0.614[/tex]

In October 2012, Apple introduced a much smaller variant of the Apple iPad, known as the iPad Mini. Weighing less than 11 ounces, it was about 50% lighter than the standard iPad. Battery tests for the iPad Mini showed a mean life of 10.25 hours (The Wall Street Journal, October 31, 2012). Assume that battery life of the iPad Mini is uniformly distributed between 8.5 and 12 hours.
a. What is the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less (to 4 decimals)?b. What is the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be at least 11 hours (to 4 decimals)?c. What is the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be between 9.5 and 11.5 hours (to 4 decimals)?d. In a shipment of 100 iPad Minis, how many should have a battery life of at least 9 hours (to nearest whole value)?

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.4286 = 42.86% probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less

b) 0.2857 = 28.57% probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be at least 11 hours

c) 0.5714 = 57.14% probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be between 9.5 and 11.5 hours

d) 86 should have a battery life of at least 9 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

An uniform probability is a case of probability in which each outcome is equally as likely.

For this situation, we have a lower limit of the distribution that we call a and an upper limit that we call b.

The probability that we find a value X lower than x is given by the following formula.

[tex]P(X \leq x) = \frac{x - a}{b-a}[/tex]

The probability of being higher than x is:

[tex]P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b-a}[/tex]

The probability of being between c and d is:

[tex]P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d-c}{b-a}[/tex]

Assume that battery life of the iPad Mini is uniformly distributed between 8.5 and 12 hours.

This means that [tex]a = 8.5, b = 12[/tex]

a. What is the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less (to 4 decimals)?

[tex]P(X \leq x) = \frac{x - a}{b-a}[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 10) = \frac{10 - 8.5}{12 - 8.5} = 0.4286[/tex]

0.4286 = 42.86% probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be 10 hours or less.

b. What is the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be at least 11 hours (to 4 decimals)?

[tex]P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b-a}[/tex]

[tex]P(X > 11) = \frac{12 - 11}{12 - 8.5} = 0.2857[/tex]

0.2857 = 28.57% probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be at least 11 hours

c. What is the probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be between 9.5 and 11.5 hours (to 4 decimals)?

[tex]P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d-c}{b-a}[/tex]

[tex]P(9.5 \leq X \leq 11.5) = \frac{11.5 - 9.5}{12 - 8.5} = 0.5714[/tex]

0.5714 = 57.14% probability that the battery life for an iPad Mini will be between 9.5 and 11.5 hours.

d. In a shipment of 100 iPad Minis, how many should have a battery life of at least 9 hours (to nearest whole value)?

Proportion of iPad Minis with a battery life of at least 9 hours.

[tex]P(X > 11) = \frac{12 - 9}{12 - 8.5} = 0.8571[/tex]

Out of 100:

0.8571*100 = 85.71

To the nearest whole number

86 should have a battery life of at least 9 hours.

a. What is the initial value of this function (the attendance in 1985)?



b. Find the attendance for the year 1998.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume your intended attendance equation is ...

  A = -1.95x^3 +70.1x^2 -188x +2150

a. For x=0 (corresponding to 1985), the first three terms are 0, so we have ...

  A = 2150 . . . . the initial value of the function

__

b. For x=13 (corresponding to 1985) we have ...

  A = ((-1.95(13) +70.1)(13) -188)(13) +2150 = (44.75(13) -188)(13) +2150

  = 393.75(13) +2150 = 7268.75

Attendance in the year 1998 is modeled to be about 7269.

Answers

Answer:

C.  ​No, the distribution is not symmetric and the frequencies do not start off low.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

You have the data of daily rainfall for one month (inches)

To arrange a data set in a frequency table you have to determine the number of class intervals you want to make, then you calculate their widths as: "total observations"/"desired number of intervals". Once you have the class width, you can determine the limits of the intervals. For the first interval, you select the minimum value of the sample and add the width to obtain the upper limit. Then you have to use that limit as the lower limit of the next interval and add the width to obtain the next limit. And so on until the last one.

In this example you have a given class width of 0.20 and the lower limit for the first interval is 0.00.

Once you have all intervals determined, you have to arrange the data set from least to greatest and count how many observations correspond to each interval.

The symbol [;) in the intervals indicates that the interval is "closed" on the lower limit and "open" on the upper limit. Meaning, if you have for example the observation "0.20" and the intervals [0.00; 0.20) and [0.20; 0.40), the first interval has a limit equal to 0.20 but is open, meaning that the observation does not belong to it, it belongs to the next interval.

(See table in attachment)

Does the frequency distribution appear to be roughly a normal​ distribution?

A.  ​No, although the distribution is approximately​ symmetric, the frequencies do not start​ low, increase to some maximum​ frequency, then decrease.

B.  ​No, although the frequencies start​ low, increase to some ​maximum, then​ decrease, the distribution is not symmetric.

C.  ​No, the distribution is not symmetric and the frequencies do not start off low.

D.  ​Yes, all the requirements are met.

As you can see not all defined intervals have at least one observed frequency, most of the observations belong to the first and second one. And there is value, 1.28 inches, that shifts the distribution to the right making it strongly skewed. This distribution is far away from being normally distributed.

Hope it helps!

Vertex of a quadratic function:

Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:

In which

[tex]x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]

If a<0, the vertex is a maximum point, that is, the maximum value happens at [tex]x_{v}[/tex], and it's value is [tex]f(x_{v})[/tex]

In this question:

[tex]h(t) = -32t^{2} + 8t + 3[/tex]

So [tex]a = -32, b = 8[/tex]

When is the ball at a maximum height

[tex]t_{v} = -\frac{8}{2*(-32)} = 0.125[/tex]

The ball is at a maximum height when t = 0.125s.

The length of time for one individual to be served at a cafeteria is an exponential random variable with mean of 6 minutes. Assume a person has waited for at least 4 minutes to be served. What is the probability that the person will need to wait at least 9 minutes total

Answers

Answer:

43.46% probability that the person will need to wait at least 9 minutes total

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand conditional probability and the exponential distribution.

Conditional probability:

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

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

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

Expontial distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

[tex]f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

In which [tex]\mu = \frac{1}{m}[/tex] is the decay parameter.

The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:

[tex]P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx[/tex]

Which has the following solution:

[tex]P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

[tex]P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

In this question:

Event A: Waited at least 4 minutes.

Event B: Waiting at least 9 minutes.

The length of time for one individual to be served at a cafeteria is an exponential random variable with mean of 6 minutes.

This means that [tex]m = 6, \mu = \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Probability of waiting at least 4 minutes.

[tex]P(A) = P(X \geq 4) = P(X > 4)[/tex]

[tex]P(A) = P(X > 4) = e^{-\frac{4}{6}} = 0.5134[/tex]

Intersection:

The intersection between a waiting time of at least 4 minutes and a waiting time of at list 9 minutes is a waiting time of 9 minutes. So

[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(X > 9) = e^{-\frac{9}{6}} = 0.2231[/tex]

What is the probability that the person will need to wait at least 9 minutes total

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{0.2231}{0.5134} = 0.4346[/tex]

43.46% probability that the person will need to wait at least 9 minutes total

Matthew can jog 3 and ⅖ miles in ⅞ of an hour. Find his average speed in miles per hour.

Answers

Answer:

3 [tex]\frac{31}{35}[/tex] mph ≈ 3.8857 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = distance/time

1) Plug the numbers in.

Speed = 3 ⅖ / ⅞

2) Convert the numbers to decimals.

Speed = 3.4 / 0.875

3) Solve.

Speed ≈ 3.8857 mph = [tex]\frac{136}{35}[/tex] mph = 3 [tex]\frac{31}{35}[/tex] mph

ANOTHER WAY TO SOLVE

Speed = distance/time

1) Plug the numbers in.

Speed = 3 ⅖ / ⅞

2) Convert into improper fractions

Speed = [tex]\frac{17}{5}[/tex] / [tex]\frac{7}{8}[/tex]

3) Multiply by the reciprocal

Speed =  [tex]\frac{17}{5}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{8}{7}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{136}{35}[/tex] mph = 3 [tex]\frac{31}{35}[/tex] mph

Solve the following quadratic equation using the quadratic formula. Separate multiple answers with a comma if necessary.

[tex]−yx^{2} +4y−6=0[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

[tex] y^2 -4y +6=0[/tex]

[tex] y =\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Where [tex] a = 1, b= -4 ,c =6[/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] y = \frac{-(-4) \pm \sqrt{4^2 -4(1)(6)}}{2*1}[/tex]

And solving we got:

[tex] y = \frac{4 \pm \sqrt{-8}}{2} =2 \pm 2\sqrt{2} i[/tex]

Where [tex] i =\sqrt{-1}[/tex]

And the possible solutions are:

[tex] y_1=2 + 2\sqrt{2} i , y_2 = 2 - 2\sqrt{2} i [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we use the equation given by the image and we have:

[tex] -y^2 +4y -6=0[/tex]

We can rewrite the last expression like this if we multiply both sides of the equation by -1.

[tex] y^2 -4y +6=0[/tex]

Now we can use the quadratic formula given by:

[tex] y =\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Where [tex] a = 1, b= -4 ,c =6[/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] y = \frac{-(-4) \pm \sqrt{4^2 -4(1)(6)}}{2*1}[/tex]

And solving we got:

[tex] y = \frac{4 \pm \sqrt{-8}}{2} =2 \pm 2\sqrt{2} i[/tex]

Where [tex] i =\sqrt{-1}[/tex]

And the possible solutions are:

[tex] y_1=2 + 2\sqrt{2} i , y_2 = 2 - 2\sqrt{2} i [/tex]

The time, T (seconds) it takes for a pot of water to boil is inversely proportional to the cooker setting, H , applied to the pot. When H = 7 , T = 150 . What must the cooker setting be if it takes 7 minutes to boil the water?

Answers

Answer:

150

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following parameters;

Time, T = 150mins

Cooker setting, H = 7

Since the time for a pot of water to boil is inversely proportional to the cooker setting;

[tex]T * 1/H[/tex]

[tex]T = K/H[/tex] ........equation 1

Where, K is the constant of proportionality.

Substituting the parameters into the equation 1, we have;

150 = K/7

K = 150*7

K = 1050

To find the cooker setting at 7mins;

[tex]T = K/H[/tex]

H = K/T

H = 1050 ÷ 7

H = 150.

Hence, the cooker setting must be at 150.

Answers

The Answer is F.

20min - 30min is -10 so you can take it out of 8h which will leave you with 7h and 50 minutes then
7h and 50 min minus 10 h is -3 h and 50 minutes take it out of the 7 day’s which leaves you with 6days and 24 h minus 3 h that it 6days and 21 h and 50 minutes in total and minus the ram aiming 4 days which will be

2days 21 hours 50 minutes and that gives you the answer F

7-9. A deli sliced 13.7 kilograms of
roast beef one week and 22.53
kilograms the next. How many total
kilograms of roast beef did the deli
slice in the two weeks?​

Answers

Answer:

36.23 kilograms of roasted beef

Step-by-step explanation:

If deli sliced 13.7 kilograms (kg) of roasted beef one week

He sliced 22.53 kilograms (kg) the next week

Total sliced kilograms of roasted beef=13.7 kg + 22.53 kg

=36.23 kg

The deli sliced a total of 36.23 kilograms of roasted beef in the two weeks.

What’s the correct answer for this?

Answers

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

<ACF = 90° (since AB is the diameter and it is perpendicular to EF)

But <ACF = 2(7x-4)

So

2(7x-4) = 90

14x-8 = 90

14x = 90+8

14x = 98

Dividing both sides by 14

x = 7
