The mean cost to repair the smoke and fire damage that results from home fires of all causes is $11,389 (HomeAdvisor website, December 2014). How does the damage that results from home fires caused by careless use of tobacco compare? The DATAfile named TobaccoFires provides the cost to repair smoke and fire damage associated with a sample of 55 fires caused by careless use of tobacco products. Using past years' data, the population standard deviation can be assumed known with σ = $3,027.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The alternative is characterized in the interpretation section following the table, as per the case mentioned.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question:

The sample mean will be:

⇒ [tex]\bar{x}=\frac{\Sigma x}{n}[/tex]

      [tex]=\frac{1050500}{55}[/tex]

      [tex]=19100[/tex]

The critical value of z ([tex]z_e=1.96[/tex]) seems to be the 95 % confidence interval. So the required confidence interval will be:

=  [tex]\bar{x} \ \pm \ x_{critical}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

= [tex]19100 \ \pm \ 1.96.\frac{3027}{\sqrt{25} }[/tex]

= [tex]19100 \ \pm \ 800[/tex]

Consequently, the average cost of repairing flames and smoke injury can outcomes from household fires started by careless tobacco is therefore estimated at quite a 95 percent confidence interval ($18300, $19900). The 95 percent confidence interval indicates that the average estimated price of fires results through the use of tobacco is somewhat more costly than that of the average cost of flames results from across all factors that cause.
Answer 2

The 95% confidence interval is ($18300 , $19900) and according to the confidence interval, the average estimated price of fires results through the use of tobacco is somewhat more costly than that of the average cost of flames results from across all factors that cause.

Given :

The mean cost to repair the smoke and fire damage that results from home fires of all causes is $11,389.Sample size, n = 55.The population standard deviation can be assumed known with σ = $3,027.

First, find the sample mean by using the following formula:

[tex]\rm \bar{x}=\dfrac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]

[tex]\rm \bar{x}=\dfrac{1050500}{55}[/tex]

[tex]\rm \bar {x} = 19100[/tex]

Now, for 95% confidence level, the confidence interval will be:

[tex]= \rm \bar{x} \pm x_{critical} \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

[tex]\rm = 19100\pm 1.96\times \dfrac{3027}{\sqrt{55} }[/tex]

[tex]=19100\pm 800[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval is ($18300 , $19900).

According to the confidence interval, the average estimated price of fires results through the use of tobacco is somewhat more costly than that of the average cost of flames results from across all factors that cause.

Brain weights are normally distibuted with mean 1400.48 grams and standard deviation 106.33 grams. Find the 80th percentile of this distribution.

Answers

Answer:

The 80th percentile of the distribution is 1,490.01 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the 80% of the distribution

80% means 80/100 = 0.8

We need to get the z-score equivalent to 80th percentile;

This is equal to 0.842

Mathematically;

z-score = (x - mean)/SD

we want to calculate x here;

0.842 = (x - 1400.48)/(106.33)

106.33(0.842) + 1400.48 = x

x = 1,490.00986 which is 1,490.01 grams to 2 decimal places

A medical school claims that more than 28% of its students plan to go into general practice. To test this claim, a random sample of 130 of the school's students is selected. Of these, 32% of them plan to go into general practice. Find the P-value for this test of the school's claim.

Answers

Answer:

The p-value of the test is 0.1314.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we need to test the claim made by a medical school that more than 28% of its students plan to go into general practice.

The hypothesis can be defined as follows:  

H₀: The proportion of students planning to go to general practice is 28%, i.e. p = 0.28.  

Hₐ: The proportion of students planning to go to general practice is more than 28%, i.e. p > 0.28.

The information provided is:  

 n = 130

[tex]\hat p=0.32[/tex]

Compute the test statistic value as follows:  

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

    [tex]=\frac{0.32-0.28}{\sqrt{\frac{0.28(1-0.28)}{130}}}\\\\=1.12[/tex]

The test statistic value is 1.12.  

Compute the p-value as follows:  

 [tex]p-value=P(Z>1.12)\\[/tex]

                 [tex]=1-P(Z<1.12)\\\\=1-0.86864\\\\=0.13136\\\\\approx 0.1314[/tex]

The p-value of the test is 0.1314.

The amount of money deposited into an account in a given year is multiplied by a growth factor of x = 1 + r. $800 is
deposited at the start of the first year; an additional $300 is deposited at the start of the next year, and $625 at the start of
the following year. Write an expression that represents the amount of money in the account at the end of the three years.

Answers

Answer:

800(1 + r)³ + 300(1 + r)² + 625(1 + r)

Step-by-step explanation:

At the beginning of the first year $800 is deposited.

At the end of the first year the amount of money in account = $800 × growth factor = 800(1 + r)

At the beginning of the second year, $300 is deposited, the money in account = 800(1 + r) + 300

At the end of the second year the amount of money in account is multiplied by growth factor. = [800(1 + r) + 300] × 1 + r = 800(1 + r)² + 300(1 + r)

At the beginning of the third year, $625 is deposited, the money in account = 800(1 + r)² + 300(1 + r) + 625

At the end of third year the money = [800(1 + r)² + 300(1 + r) + 625] × 1 + r = 800(1 + r)³ + 300(1 + r)² + 625(1 + r)

Consider the following information: Observations 1 2 3 4 5 6 Num. of defects 10 18 13 15 9 12 The number of runs above and below the sample median is:

Answers

Answer:

There are 3 runs above and below the sample mean

Step-by-step explanation:

From  the given information; we have a table that can be computed as:

Observations              1      2       3      4     5     6

Number of defects     10     18    13    15     9     12

If we sort the order in ascending order; we have:

Observations              5      1       6      3     4     2

Number of defects     9     10    12    13     15     18

The median is the  middle number; here the integers are even :

Thus, the median is  (12 + 13)/2 = 12.5

We need to make counts from the table given above to determine if they are below or above the median

Observations              1      2       3      4     5     6

Number of defects     10     18    13    15     9     12

Above(A) /Below (B)    B     A       A     A    B      B

To count for the number of runs from the  beginning and when there is a change of runs from A to B; we have:  

Observations              1      2       3      4     5     6

Number of defects     10     18    13    15     9     12

Above(A) /Below (B)    B     A       A     A    B      B

Runs                             1        2      -      -      3      -

Therefore, from the analysis, there are 3 runs above and below the sample mean

The median element of a dataset is the middle element of the dataset.

There are 3 runs above and below the sample median

The information is given as:

Observations  1      2       3      4     5     6

Defects           10     18    13    15     9     12

In ascending order, the information is represented as:

Defects           9   10   12   13   15   18

Observations  5    1     6    3     4    2

The total number of observations is:

[tex]\mathbf{n = 5 + 1 + 6 + 3+ 4 + 2}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{n = 21}[/tex]

The median element is calculated as:

[tex]\mathbf{Median = \frac{n + 1}{2}th}[/tex]

Substitute 21 for n

[tex]\mathbf{Median = \frac{21 + 1}{2}th}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Median = \frac{22}{2}th}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{Median = 11th}[/tex]

The 11th element is 12.

So, the median is:

[tex]\mathbf{Median = 12}[/tex]

Considering the given information;

Observations  1      2       3      4     5     6

Defects           10     18    13    15     9     12

The defects greater than the median (i.e. 12) are above (A) the median, while the defects less than the median are below (B)

So, we have:

Observations  1      2       3      4     5     6

Defects           10     18    13    15     9     12

Status               B     A       A     A    B      -

Next, we take a count of the number of times the status changes, i.e. from B to A, from A to B, from A or B to -

The count is 3.

Hence, there are 3 runs above and below the sample median

Your calculation:


b. What percentage scored between 600 and 700 points?
Your calculation:


c. Your score is 725. What is your percentile rank?

Answers

Answer:

(a) 12.5%

(b) 20%

(c) 96th

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X denote the results of the 2018 SAT math exam.

It is provided that the mean of exam was, μ = 531 and standard deviation of σ  114.

Assume that X follows a normal distribution.

(a)

Compute the probability of test takers who scored lower than 400 on the math SAT as follows:

[tex]P(X<400)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{400-531}{114})[/tex]

                   [tex]=P(Z<-1.15)\\\\=0.12507\\\\\approx 0.125[/tex]

Thus, the percentage of test takers who scored lower than 400 on the math SAT is 12.5%.

(b)

Compute the probability of test takers who scored between 600 and 700 points as follows:

[tex]P(600<X<700)=P(\frac{600-531}{114}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{700-531}{114})[/tex]

                             [tex]=P(0.61<Z<1.48)\\\\=P(Z<1.48)-P(Z<0.61)\\\\=0.93056-0.72907\\\\=0.20149\\\\\approx 0.20[/tex]

Thus, the percentage of test takers who scored between 600 and 700 points is 20%.

(c)

Compute the value of P (Z < 725) as follows:

[tex]P(X<725)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{725-531}{114})[/tex]

                   [tex]=P(Z<1.70)\\\\=0.95543\\\\\approx 0.96[/tex]

Thus, a student who scores 725 has a 96th percentile rank.

Answers

Answer:

(A) 0.6

(B) 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

(A) Find the probability that NO family member chooses the same exit door.

Now, if no family member chooses the same exit door with another, it means that each person chooses a separate door. If each person chooses a separate door, then 6 out of 10 doors are chosen!

This translates to 6/10 which is = 0.6

So the probability that each family member has a door to him or herself is 0.6

(B) Find the probability that EVERY family member chooses the same exit door.

In this case, the number of persons (family members) does not really count. The focal point of the question is that everybody chooses the same door (and will use the same door). This means that only 1 door out of 10, will be chosen AND the probability that only one door out of 10 will be chosen is
