Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

6.286;

0.0165

0.976

0.1995

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean, μ = 243. 4

Standard deviation, σ = 35

Sample size, n = 31

1.)

Standard Error

S. E = σ / √n = 35/√31 = 6.286

2.)

P(x < 230) ;

Z = (x - μ) / S.E

P(Z < (230 - 243.4) / 6.286))

P(Z < - 2.132) = 0.0165

3.)

P(x > 231)

P(Z > (231 - 243.4) / 6.286))

P(Z > - 1.973) = 0.976 (area to the right)

4)

P(x < 248)

P(Z < (248 - 243.4) / 6.286))

P(Z < 0.732) = 0.7679

P(x < 255)

P(Z < (255 - 243.4) / 6.286))

P(Z < 1.845) = 0.9674

0.9674 - 0.7679 = 0.1995

Calculate the minimum number of subjects needed for a research study regarding the proportion of respondents who reported a history of diabetes using the following criteria:

95% confidence, within 5 percentage points, and a previous estimate is not known.

Answers

Answer:

The minimum number of subjects needed is 385.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

95% confidence, within 5 percentage points, and a previous estimate is not known.

The sample size is n for which M = 0.05. We don't know the true proportion, so we use [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex]

Then

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.05 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.05\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.5}{0.05}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*0.5}{0.05})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 384.16[/tex]

Rounding up:

The minimum number of subjects needed is 385.

An experiment consists of 400 observations and four mutually exclusive groups. If the probability of a randomly selected item being classified into any of the four groups is equal, then the expected number of items that will be classified into group 1 is ________.

Answers

Answer:

The expected number of items that will be classified into group 1 is 100.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each observation, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it will be classified into group 1, or it will not. The probability of an observation being classified into group 1 is independent of any other observation, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

400 observations

This means that [tex]n = 400[/tex]

Four mutually exclusive groups. The probability of a randomly selected item being classified into any of the four groups is equal.

This means that [tex]p = 0.25[/tex]

Then the expected number of items that will be classified into group 1 is

[tex]E(X) = np = 400*0.25 = 100[/tex]

100 is the answer.

You plan to charge $1 for each time a student plays, and the payout for a win is $5. According to your calculations, the probability of a win is .05. What is your expected value for this game? The expected value

Answers

Answer:

- $0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

For each game played the chance of winning is 0.05 and losing is 0.95.

If the student wins, they get $5 -$1 = $4, but they lose $1.

Expected value is:

4*0.05 - 1*0.95 = -0.75

It means you will make $0.75 per average game.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant relation is ...

  distance = speed × time

The total distance the trolley traveled is ...

  d = (20 mi/h) × (3.5 h) = 70 mi

The distance is the same in both directions, so the trolley traveled half this distance in one direction.

The trolley traveled 35 miles in one direction.

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf x \approx 1.9}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find x, a missing side in a triangle.

This is a right triangle because there is a small square in the corner representing a 90 degree or right angle. Therefore, we can use right triangle trigonometry. The three main functions are:

sinθ= opposite/hypotenuse cosθ= adjacent/hypotenuse tanθ= opposite/adjacent

Examine the triangle. We will use angle S, measuring 54 degrees, for theta. Side QR, measuring x, is opposite angle S. Side QS, measuring 2.3, is the hypotenuse because it is opposite the right angle. Since we have the opposite and hypotenuse, we will use sine.

[tex]sin \theta = \frac {opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

θ= 54opposite= x hypotenuse = 2.3

[tex]sin (54)= \frac{ x}{2.3}[/tex]

We are solving for x, so we must isolate the variable. It is being divided by 2.3 The inverse operation of division is multiplication, so we multiply both sides by 2.3

[tex]2.3* sin (54)= \frac{x}{2.3}*2.3[/tex]

[tex]2.3* sin (54)=x[/tex]

[tex]2.3*0.8090169944=x[/tex]

[tex]1.860739087 =x[/tex]

Round to the nearest tenth. The 6 in the hundredth place to the right tells us to round the 8 up to a 9.

2 t-shirts and a hat costs £17.00.
How much does a t-shirt cost?
How much does a hat cost?

Answers

Answer:

t- shirt cost £7, hat cost £3

Step-by-step explanation:

let t represent cost of t- shirt and h represent cost of hat , then

4t + h = 31  → (1)

2t + h = 17 → (2)

Subtract (2) from (1) term by term to eliminate h

(4t - 2t) + (h - h) = 31 - 17 , that is

2t = 14 ( divide both sides by 2 )

t = 7

Substitute t = 7 into either of the 2 equations and solve for h

Substituting into (1)

4(7) + h = 31

28 + h = 31 ( subtract 28 from both sides )

h = 3

t- shirt cost £7 and hat cost £3

A hose is left running for 240 minutes to 2 significant figures. The amount of water coming out of the hose each minute is 2.1 litres to 2 significant figures. Calculate the lower and upper bounds of the total amount of water that comes out of the hose.​

Answers

Answer:

Hello,

Step-by-step explanation:

Let say t the time the hose is left running

235 ≤ t < 245 (in min)

Let say d the amount of water coming out of the hose each minute

2.05 ≤ d < 2.15 (why d : débit in french)

235*2.05 ≤ t*d < 245*2.15

481.75 ≤ t*d < 526.75    (litres)

Answer:

Lower bound: [tex]495\; \rm L[/tex] (inclusive.)

Upper bound: [tex]505\; \rm L[/tex] (exclusive.)

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of water from the hose is the product of time and the rate at which water comes out.

When multiplying two numbers, the product would have as many significant figures as the less accurate factor.

In this example, both factors are accurate to two significant figures. Hence, the product would also be accurate to two significant figures. That is:

[tex]240 \times 2.1 = 5.0 \times 10^{2}\; \rm L[/tex] ([tex]500\; \rm L[/tex] with only two significant figures.)

Let [tex]x[/tex] denote the amount of water in liters. For [tex]x\![/tex] to round to [tex]5.0 \times 10^{2}\; \rm L[/tex] only two significant figures are kept, [tex]495 \le x < 505[/tex]. That gives a bound on the quantity of water from the hose.

Express the prime number 19 as the difference of two squares? 19 =​

Answers

Answer:

The two squares are 81 and 100, and their difference is 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Let's take out the square of 1st ten natural numbers to find out the exact answer.

1² = 1

2² = 4

3² = 9

4² = 16

5² = 25

6² = 36

7² = 49

8² = 64

9² = 81

10² = 100

Now; You can take any of these numbers and subtract from their squares.

So, let's check 6² and 5²

36-25 = 11 which is not equal to 19

Again check for 10²-9²

100 - 81 = 19 (True value)

Therefore, 19 can be expressed as the difference of square of 10 and 9.

Point D is 8 units away from the origin along the x-axis, and is 6 units away along the y-axis. Which of the following could be the coordinates of Point D

Answers

Answer:

The distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by:

[tex]d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}[/tex]

Now we know that point D, which we can write as (x, y), is at a distance of 8 units from the origin.

Where the origin is written as (0, 0)

We also know that point D is 6 units away along the y-axis.

Then point D could be:

(x, 6)

or

(x, -6)

Now, let's find the x-value for each case, we need to solve:

[tex]8 = \sqrt{(x - 0)^2 + (\pm6 - 0)^2}[/tex]

notice that because we have an even power, we will get the same value of x, regardless of which y value we choose.

[tex]8 = \sqrt{x^2 + 36} \\\\8^2 = x^2 + 36\\64 - 36 = x^2\\28 = x^2\\\pm\sqrt{28} = x\\\pm 5.29 = x[/tex]

So we have two possible values of x.

x = 5.29

and

x = -5.29

Then the points that are at a distance of 8 units from the origin, and that are 6 units away along the y-axis are:

(5.29, 6)

(5.29, -6)

(-5.29, 6)

(-5.29, -6)
