Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

5√(7)m  or 13.23m

Step-by-step explanation:

use pythagorean theorem

a²+b²=c²

c=20

b=15

a²+225=400

a²=175

√(175) = 5√(7) = 13.23

Answer 2

The height of the kite is 13.23 meters.

What is Pythagoras' theorem?

In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides, according to Pythagoras's Theorem.

Given:

A boy is flying a kite.

The length of the string is 20 meters and the horizontal distance between the boy and the kite is 15 meters.

Assuming there is no slack in the string,

then the height of the kite is,

= √(20)² - (15)²

= 13.23 feet.

Therefore, the height is 13.23 meters.

A company developing a new cellular phone plan intends to market their new phone to customers who use text and social media often. In a marketing survey, they find that customers between age 18 and 34 years send an average of 48 texts per day with a standard deviation of 12. The number of texts sent per day are normally distributed.

Required:
a. A customer who sends 78 messages per day would correspond to what percentile?
b. A customer who sends 78 messages per day would be at ______th percentile.

Answers

Answer:

A customer who sends 78 messages per day would be at 99.38th percentile.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

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

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Average of 48 texts per day with a standard deviation of 12.

This means that [tex]\mu = 48, \sigma = 12[/tex]

a. A customer who sends 78 messages per day would correspond to what percentile?

The percentile is the p-value of Z when X = 78. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{78 - 48}{12}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9938.

0.9938*100% = 99.38%.

A customer who sends 78 messages per day would be at 99.38th percentile.

(20 points) Of all the TVs of a certain model that are sold, 10% require repair to be done under the warranty during the first year service. A particular dealership sells 18 such TV per week. a) What is the probability that exactly two of them require warranty repairs

Answers

Answer:

0.2835 = 28.35% probability that exactly two of them require warranty repairs.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each TV, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they require warranty repairs, or they do not. The probability of a TV requiring warranty repairs is independent of any other TV, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

10% require repair to be done under the warranty during the first year service.

This means that [tex]p = 0.1[/tex]

A particular dealership sells 18 such TV per week.

This means that [tex]n = 18[/tex]

a) What is the probability that exactly two of them require warranty repairs?

This is [tex]P(X = 2)[/tex]. So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{18,2}.(0.1)^{2}.(0.9)^{16} = 0.2835[/tex]

0.2835 = 28.35% probability that exactly two of them require warranty repairs.

The lengths of adult males' hands are normally distributed with mean 187 mm and standard deviation is 7.1 mm. Suppose that 12 individuals are randomly chosen. Round all answers to 4 where possible. What is the distribution of ¯ x

Answers

Answer:

By the Central Limit Theorem, the distribution of ¯ x is approximately normal with mean 187 and standard deviation 2.05.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

The lengths of adult males' hands are normally distributed with mean 187 mm and standard deviation is 7.1 mm.

This means that [tex]\mu = 187, \sigma = 7.1[/tex]

Suppose that 12 individuals are randomly chosen.

This means that [tex]n = 12, s = \frac{7.1}{\sqrt{12}} = 2.05[/tex]

Answer:

4.78 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation :

h = - 16^t2 + 64t + 60

Using the quadratic formula ; where

a = - 16 ; b = 64 ; c = 60

Dropping to the ground, h = 0

16^t2 + 64t - 60 = 0

-b ± (√b²- 4ac) / 2a

-64 ± (√64²- 4(-16)(60)) / 2(-16)

An auto company claims that the fuel efficiency of its sedan has been substantially improved. A consumer advocate organization wishes to compare the fuel efficiencies of its sedan between the 2019 and 2021 models. Each of 12 drivers drove both the 2019 and 2021 models on a highway and the fuel efficiency was measured (in miles per gallon). The same driver drove the same path for both the models.

Driver
Model 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
2019 31.1 32.4 31.3 33.5 31.7 32.0 31.8 29.9 31.0 32.8 32.7 33.8

Use the 0.1 level of significance to test the claim that the average fuel efficiency of the sedan has improved. Assume normal population.

Answers

Answer:

We reject the Null and conclude that at α = 0.1, the is enough evidence to support th claim that miles per gallon has improved between 2017 and 2019

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a paired t test:

H0 : μx - μy = 0

H1 : μx - μy > 0

The test statistic :

dbar / (Sd/√n)

d = Xi - Yi

d = 2.4, 0.3, 1.7,3,-0.2, 1.1, -0.5, -3.2, 1.4, 2, 1.6, 2.2

dbar = Σd / n = 11.8 / 12 = 0.983

Sd = Σ(d - dbar)²/ (n - 1) = 1.685 (calculator)

Hence,

Test statistic = 0.983 / (1.685/√12)

Test statistic = 0.983 / 0.4864176

= 2.021

Using the test statistic score, we could obtain the Pvalue using the Pvalue FROM Tscore calculator :

Degree of freedom, df = n - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11

Pvalue(2.021, 11) = 0.03415

α = 0.1

Pvalue < α ; We reject the Null and conclude that at α = 0.1, the is enough evidence to support th claim that miles per gallon has improved between 2017 and 2019
