A particular variety of watermelon weighs on average 22.4 pounds with a standard deviation of 1.36 pounds. Consider the sample mean weight of 64 watermelons of this variety. Assume the individual watermelon weights are independent.

Required:
a. What is the expected value of the sample mean weight?
b. What is the standard deviation of the sample mean weight?
c. What is the approximate probability the sample mean weight will be less than 22.02?
d. What is the value c such that the approximate probability the sample mean will be less than c is 0.9?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 22.4 pounds.

b) 0.17 pounds.

c) 0.0127 = 1.27% approximate probability the sample mean weight will be less than 22.02.

d) c = 22.62

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

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.

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.

Average 22.4 pounds with a standard deviation of 1.36 pounds.

This means that [tex]\mu = 22.4, \sigma = 1.36[/tex]

Consider the sample mean weight of 64 watermelons of this variety.

This means that [tex]n = 64, s = \frac{1.36}{\sqrt{64}} = 0.17[/tex]

a. What is the expected value of the sample mean weight?

By the Central Limit Theorem, 22.4 pounds.

b. What is the standard deviation of the sample mean weight?

By the Central Limit Theorem, 0.17 pounds.

c. What is the approximate probability the sample mean weight will be less than 22.02?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 22.02. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{22.02 - 22.4}{0.17}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.235[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.235[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0127.

0.0127 = 1.27% approximate probability the sample mean weight will be less than 22.02.

d. What is the value c such that the approximate probability the sample mean will be less than c is 0.9?

This is the 90th percentile, that is, [tex]X = c[/tex] when z has a p-value of 0.9, so X when Z = 1.28.

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

[tex]1.28 = \frac{c - 22.4}{0.17}[/tex]

[tex]c - 22.4 = 1.28*0.17[/tex]

[tex]c = 22.62[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Power = 8827 watts

Time in minutes = 43 minutes

To obtain the amount of CO2 that was created :, which is the energy :

Recall

Energy = power * time

Energy in kw/hr = (8827/100) * (43/60)

Energy = 8.827 * 0.7166666

Answers

Answer:

A) 3

Pippa kept 3 stickers for herself

Answer to question 2:

The misconception of if a student selects D) 27 is that instead of dividing to find out how many stickers Pippa kept for herself, the student subtracted. They subtracted instead of dividing.

Step-by-step explanation:

It said that Pippa gave each of her friends an EQUAL number of stickers and AS MANY STICKERS AS POSSIBLE. This tells us that to find our answer we need to divide and what ever the remainder is, is how many stickers Pippa kept for herself.

(You will kind of need to do long division for this)

35 ÷ 8 = 4

8 x 4 = 32

35 - 32 = 3

Pippa will give each of her friends 4 stickers and will keep 3 for herself.

Step-by-step explanation for question 2:

35 stickers - 8 friends = 27

Answers

Answer:

a. Yes

b. VT

c. Segment RQ

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Find the slope of RS and UV

Slope = rise/run

Slope of RS = rise/run = RQ/QS

Slope of RS = 6/6

Slope of RS = 1

Slope of UV = rise/run = UT/TV

Slope of UV = 3/3

Slope of UV = 1

Thus, TS and UV have equivalent slopes

b. Slope of VT:

VT is an horizontal line.

It has no rise. But only run.

Therefore, it's rise = 0, while run = VT = 3

Slope of VT = rise/run = 0/3

Slope of VT = 0

c. Vertical lines have undefined slope.

Segment RQ is vertical line and therefore has an undefined slope.

RQ has rise but no run.

Thus:

Rise = 6

Run = 0

Slope of Segment RQ = 6/0 (this can't divide)

Therefore, slope of Segment RQ is undefined.

Also, notice the radius of the circle can be expressed as the hypotenuse of HMC. Using some trig, we figure out that the radius is 24/sin(33 degrees).

Using the radius of the circle, we can figure out the circumference. The circumference is pi*r^2=(24/sin(33 degrees))^2*pi=pi*24^2/(sin(33 degrees)^2)

Lastly, notice that y = 33/360*circumference = 33/360 π×24^2/(sin^2(33° (degrees)))

Each machine at a certain factory can produce 90 units per hour. The setup cost is 20 dollars for each machine and the operating cost is 26 dollars per hour (total, not 26 dollars per machine per hour). You would like to know how many machines should be used to produce 40000 units, with the goal of minimizing production costs.
First, find a formula for the total cost in terms of the number of machines, n:_______
TC = ______
machines for a total cost of The minimum total cost is achieved when using dollars.

Answers

Answer:

a)  [tex]Total Cost=20n+\frac{(\frac{40000}{90}*26)}{n}[/tex]

b)  [tex]n=24[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Rate r=90 units per hour

Setup cost =20

Operating Cost =26

Units=40000

Generally the equation for Total cost is mathematically given by

[tex]Total Cost=20n+\frac{(\frac{40000}{90}*26)}{n}[/tex]

[tex]T_n=20n+\frac{11556}{n}\\\\T_n=\frac{20n^2+11556}{n}.....equ 1[/tex]

Differentiating

[tex]T_n'=\frac{n(40n)-(40n^2+11556)}{n_2}\\\\T_n'=\frac{20n^2-11556}{n^2}.....equ 2[/tex]

Equating equ 1 to zero

[tex]0=\frac{20n^2+11556}{n}[/tex]

[tex]n=24[/tex]

Therefore

Substituting n

For Equ 1

[tex]T_n=\frac{20(24)^2+11556}{24}[/tex]

F(n)>0  

For Equ 2

A party rental company has chairs and tables for rent. The total cost to rent 6 chairs and 5 tables is $63. The total cost to rent 2 chairs and 3 tables is $35. What is the cost to rent each chair and each table?

Answers

Answer:

1.75dollars - the value of each chair,  10.5 dollars - the value of each table

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of chair is x, the value of table is y. Then 6chairs cost 6x, 5 tables cost 5y. 6x+5y= 63

Then the value of 2 chairs is  2x,  for 3 tables  it is equal to 3y. 2x+3y=35

We have the system of equations6x+5y= 63 and 2x+3y=35

Multiply the second one by -3

-3(2x+3y)= -3*35

-6x-9y= -105.

Plus the first equation and the second one multiplied by -3 (the right side to the right side and the left side to the left side with sign= between them)

6x+5y-6x-9y= 63-105

-4y= -42

y=10.5 dollars - the value of a table

6x+5*10.5=63

6x= 63-52.5

6x=10.5

x=1.75dollars - the value of a chair

Answer: Third Choice. 3i√3

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept:

Here, we need to know the idea of radical expression and an imaginary number.

A radical expression is any mathematical expression containing a radical symbol. If you need to multiply the number outside of radical back into the radical, then you need to square the number then multiply.

For example: 2√5. We need to first square 2, which gives us 4. Then, it becomes √(4 × 5) = √20

Imaginary numbers are the numbers when squared it gives the negative result. An imaginary number is a complex number that can be written as a real number multiplied by the imaginary unit i, which is defined by its property i² = −1.

Solve:

3√3 = √(3 × 3²) = √27     FALSE

-3√(3i) = √(3i × (-3)²) = √27i     FALSE

3i√3 = √(3 × (3i)²) = √-27     TRUE

3√(3i) = √(3i × 3²) = √27i     FALSE

As we can see from above, only the third choice equals √-27.
