An article suggests the uniform distribution on the interval (6.5, 19) as a model for depth (cm) of the bioturbation layer in sediment in a certain region.(a) What are the mean and variance of depth

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The mean of depth is 12.75cm.

The variance of depth is of 13.02 cm².

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 mean of the uniform distribution is:

[tex]M = \frac{a+b}{2}[/tex]

The variance of the uniform distribution is given by:

[tex]V = \frac{(b-a)^{2}}{12}[/tex]

Uniform distribution on the interval (6.5, 19)

This means that: [tex]a = 6.5, b = 19[/tex]

So

Mean:

[tex]M = \frac{6.5+19}{2} = 12.75[/tex]

The mean of depth is 12.75cm.

Variance:

[tex]V = \frac{(19 - 6.5)^{2}}{12} = 13.02[/tex]

The variance of depth is of 13.02 cm².

the sum of the three numbers in 2003,two of the numbers are 814 and 519 what is the third number​

Answers

Answer:

670

Step-by-step explanation:

2003-814=1189

1189-519=670

Answer: The third number is 670.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum means three numbers being added up is equal to 2003 so give two of those numbers you have to add them up and subtract it from 2003 to find the third number.

814 + 519 + x = 2003   where x is the third number

1333 + x = 2003

-1333          -1333  

  x = 670   So the third number is 670

Check:  

 814 + 670 + 519 = 2003

     2003 = 2003   so yes again 670 is the third number.

How to find a vertical asymptote

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally's rational functions that have vertical asymptotes, even trig functions (which, like the tangent function, are often rational).

If the given function is the ratio of two functions, polynomial or otherwise, the graph of the given function has an asymptote at any x value for which the denominator is zero.  Example:  y = tan x = (sin x) / (cos x) has vertical asysmptotes at π/2, 3π/2, and so on, because the denominator cos x is zero for those angles.

You are writing music for a movie and you have to synchronize the music to the amount of frames per click in it. It's a battle scene so you want fast, energetic and exciting music. You choose a Presto tempo marking of 200 beats per minute. How many picture frames are there per each tempo click? (Round to the nearest whole number and write only the number.)

Answers

Answer: 7.2 frames per bit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Our teempo is 200 bpm.

in one minute we have 60 seconds, so here we have:

200b/60s = 3.33 bits per second.

For movies, the standar is 24 frames per second

now, we can take the quotient between the frames per second and the bits per second and get the frames per bit.

24fps/3.33bps = 7.2 frames per bit.

A quick quiz consists of a multiple-choice question with 5 possible answers followed by a multiple-choice question with 5 possible answers. If both questions are answered with random guesses, find the probability that both responses are correct. Report the answer as a percent rounded to two decimal place accuracy. You need not enter the "%" symbol. Probability = %

Answers

Answer:

Probability = 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

For each answer, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is correct, or it is not. The probability of an answer being correct is independent of other answers. So we use the binomial probability distribution 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.

Each question has 5 possible answer:

The person guesses, so [tex]p = \frac{1}{5} = 0.2[/tex]

2 questions:

This means that [tex]n = 2[/tex]

Find the probability that both responses are correct.

This is P(X = 2).

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

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{2,2}.(0.2)^{2}.(0.8)^{0} = 0.04[/tex]

As a percent:

Probability = 4%

At Ajax Spring Water, a half-liter bottle of soft drink is supposed to contain a mean of 519 ml. The filling process follows a normal distribution with a known process standard deviation of 6 ml.
1) The normal distribution should be used for the sample mean because:_____.
a) the sample population has a large mean.
b) the population distribution is known to be normal.
c) the population standard deviation is known.
d) the standard deviation is very small.
2) Set up hypotheses and a two-tailed decision rule for the correct mean using the 5 percent level of significance. The hypothesis for a two-tailed decision is:_______.
A. H0: mu not equal to 519, H1: mu = 519, reject if z < -1.96 or z > 1.96.
B. H0: mu not equal to 519, H1: mu = 519, reject if z > 1.96 or z < -1.96.
C. H0: mu = 519, mu not equal to 519, reject if z> 1.96 or z< -1.96.
D. H0: mu = 519, H_1: mu not equal to 519, reject if z > -1.96 or z< 1.96.
a. a.
b. b.
c. c.
d. d.
3) If a sample of 16 bottles shows a mean fill of 522 ml, does this contradict the hypothesis that the true mean is 519 ml?
A) Yes.
B) No

Answers

Answer:

1) The normal distribution should be used for the sample mean because the population distribution is known to be normal (answer b).

2) C. H0: mu = 519, H_1: mu not equal to 519, reject if z> 1.96 or z< -1.96.

3) Yes. There is enough evidence to support the claim that the true mean is not 519 ml.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) When the population follows a normal distribution, it is correct to assume a normal distribution for the sample mean.

2) As it is a two-tailed decision rule, we are interested in detecting a significant difference below and above the mean. This is why we use the unequal sign in the alternative hypothesis.

The null hypothesis state that there is not significant difference from 519.

The critical value for a significance level of 5% is z=1.96.

[tex]H_0: \mu=519\\\\H_a:\mu\neq 519[/tex]

3) The claim is that the true mean is not 519 ml.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \mu=519\\\\H_a:\mu\neq 519[/tex]

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample has a size n=16.

The sample mean is M=522.

The standard deviation of the population is known and has a value of σ=6.

We can calculate the standard error as:

[tex]\sigma_M=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{6}{\sqrt{16}}=1.5[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:

[tex]z=\dfrac{M-\mu}{\sigma_M}=\dfrac{522-519}{1.5}=\dfrac{3}{1.5}=2[/tex]

This test is a two-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as:

[tex]\text{P-value}=2\cdot P(z>2)=0.046[/tex]

As the P-value (0.046) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is significant.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

There is enough evidence to support the claim that the true mean is not 519 ml.

n th term of quadratic sequence 3, 11 , 25, 45

Answers

The first differences are 8, 14, 20.

The second differences are 6.

Half of 6 is 3, so the first term of the sequence is 3n^2.

Therefore your final answer will be 3n^2 - n + 1

In this diagram, BAC – EDF. If the
area of BAC = 24 in2, what is the
area of EDF?
Help please

Answers

The triangles are congruent. So.

Triangle ABC is 24 inch^2 and BC is 4 inches.
The area of a triangle is 0.5 x base x height. The will be 12 because 12 x 4 x 0.5 which equals 24.

Triangle DEF is half the size of ABC because bc is 4 and EF is 2 showing it’s half. This then means the height will be half which then mean it will be 6.

This then means we can use the equation to work it out. So. 6 x 0.5 x 2 = 6in^2

The answer is 6inches^2

If the area of ΔBAC = 24 in², the area of ΔEDF is 6 in².

What are similar triangles?

If two triangles' angles are congruent and their corresponding sides are proportionate, they are considered similar. To put it another way, similar triangles are the same in shape but not necessarily in size. If ΔPQR and ΔMNO are two similar triangles, then we can write it as ΔPQR ∼ ΔMNO.

Statement:

The square of the ratio of any pair of their respective sides is equal to the ratio of the areas of two similar triangles.

How to solve this problem?

Since ΔBAC ∼ ΔEDF, we can use the above statement to find the area of ΔEDF. Let the area of ΔEDF be x in². Given that length of EF and BC is 2 in and 4 in respectively.

So, we have to solve this equation,

24/x = 4²/2²

Now, 24/x = 16/4

i.e. 24/x = 4

i.e. 4x = 24

i.e. x = 24/4 = 6

Therefore the area of ΔEDF is 6 in².

And the p value would be:

[tex]p_v =2*P(t_{10}>0.788)=0.449[/tex]  

Since the p value is higher than the significance level we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly different than 18.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

[tex]\bar X=20.6[/tex] represent the sample mean

[tex]s=8[/tex] represent the sample standard deviation

[tex]n=11[/tex] sample size  

[tex]\mu_o =18.7[/tex] represent the value to test

t would represent the statistic  

[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value

Hypotesis to test

We want to verify if the true mean is equal to 18.7, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]\mu =18.7[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]\mu \neq 18.7[/tex]  

The statistic is given by:

[tex]t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex] (1)
