Forty adult men in the United States are randomly selected and measured for their body mass index​ (BMI). Based on that​ sample, it is estimated that the average​ (mean) BMI for men is 25.5​, with a margin of error of 3.3. Use the given statistic and margin of error to identify the range of values​ (confidence interval) likely to contain the true value of the population parameter

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex] 25.5 -3.3= 22.2[/tex]

[tex] 25.5 +3.3= 28.8[/tex]

And the confidence interval would be given by: [tex] 22.2\leq \mu \leq 28.8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\bar X=25.5[/tex] represent the sample mean for the sample  

ME= 3.3 represent the margin of error

Confidence interval

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

[tex]\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]   (1)

The margin of error is given by;

[tex] ME =t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}= 3.3[/tex]

And the confidence interval would be given by:

[tex] 25.5 -3.3= 22.2[/tex]

[tex] 25.5 +3.3= 28.8[/tex]

And the confidence interval would be given by: [tex] 22.2\leq \mu \leq 28.8[/tex]

Answers obtained using exact z-scores or z-scores rounded to 3 decimal places are accepted.

Answers

Answer:

P(M > 260.2-cm) = 0.702

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 normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes 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.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 260.5, \sigma = 1.6, n = 8, s = \frac{1.6}{\sqrt{8}} = 0.5657[/tex]

P(M > 260.2-cm)

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 260.2. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{260.2 - 260.5}{0.5657}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.53[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.53[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.298.

1 - 0.298 = 0.702

So

P(M > 260.2-cm) = 0.702

normally distributed with an unknown population mean and a population standard deviation of 4.5 points. A random sample of 45 scores is taken and gives a sample mean of 84. Find a 90% confidence interval

Answers

Answer:

= ( 82.90, 85.10) points

Therefore at 90% confidence interval (a,b)= ( 82.90, 85.10) points

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = 84

Standard deviation r = 4.5

Number of samples n = 45

Confidence interval = 90%

z(at 90% confidence) = 1.645

Substituting the values we have;

84+/-1.645(4.5/√45)

84+/-1.645(0.670820393249)

84+/-1.10

= ( 82.90, 85.10) points

Therefore at 90% confidence interval (a,b)= ( 82.90, 85.10) points

Write the equation of the line parallel to y+4= 1/4(x+5) and passing through the point (8, 20). Write in the format y = mx + b

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=0.25x+18[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

So first we take the equation we are given and write it in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b):

[tex]y+4= \frac{1}{4} (x+5)\\\\y+4=0.25x +1.25\\\\y=0.25x-2.75[/tex]

Now we know parallel lines have the same slope, so the line we are looking for has a slope of 0.25.

so we can start to set up our equation:

[tex]y=0.25x+b[/tex]

and then substitue in the point (8,20) to find the y-intercept.

[tex]20=0.25(8)+b\\20=2+b\\b=18[/tex]

So now we have our equation:

[tex]y=0.25x+18[/tex]

From the question we are the

   The displacement from Portland, Oregon to Houston, Texas. is  [tex]\= v[/tex]

    The displacement  from Houston, Texas to Akron, Ohio.  is [tex]\= w[/tex]a

a

   The motion of the plane in question a is in the opposite direction to vector [tex]\= w[/tex]

So the displacement of the plane is  [tex]- \= w[/tex]

You need a 55% alcohol solution. On hand, you have a 525 mL of a 45% alcohol mixture. You also have 90% alcohol mixture. How much of the 90% mixture will you need to add to obtain the desired solution? You will need _____mL of the 90% solution to obtain _____mL of the desired 55% solution.

Answers

Answer:

Let's call the amount of 90% solution x.

We can write:

45% * 525 + 90%x = 55%(x + 525)

0.45 * 525 + 0.9x = 0.55(x + 525)

Solving for x we get x = 150 so the first blank is 150 and the second blank is 525 + 150 = 675.

A 50 ft kite string is flying on the beach above an umbrella. You are holding the end
of the string and are 12 feet from the umbrella. How high in the air is the kite flying?
Round to the nearest degree.

Answers

Answer:

The height of the kite is 48.54 feet

The angle of elevation is 76.11°

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the height of the kite, we can use the Pythagoras' theorem in the triangle created by the length of the string (hypotenuse), the height of the kite and the distance to the umbrella (catheti).

Then, we have:

50^2 = 12^2 + height^2

height^2 = 2500 - 144

height^2 = 2356

height = 48.54 ft

So the kite is 48.54 feet high in the air.

The angle of elevation can be calculated using the cosine relation:

cos(angle) = 12 / 50

cos(angle) = 0.24

angle = 76.11°

n a random sample of 10 residents of the state of Florida, the mean waste recycled per person per day was 2.8 pounds with a standard deviation of 0.64 pounds. Determine the 95% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Florida. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 2 : Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places

Answers

Answer:

The critical value is T = 2.2622.

The 95% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Florida is between 1.352 pounds and 4.248 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 10 - 1 = 9

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 9 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.2622, which is the critical value.

The margin of error is:

M = T*s = 2.2622*0.64 = 1.448

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 2.8 - 1.448 = 1.352 pounds

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 2.8 + 1.448 = 4.248 pounds

The 95% confidence interval for the mean waste recycled per person per day for the population of Florida is between 1.352 pounds and 4.248 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms

12x = 180

Divide by 12

12x/12 = 180/12

x =15

We want <1

<1 = <3 since they are vertical angle

<1 = 7x-14 = 7*15 -14 =105-14=91

Answer:

D, 91 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve for x. Angles 2 and 3 add up to 180, so set up an equation:

(5x + 14) + (7x - 14) = 180

12x = 180

x = 15

Then, you know angles 1 and 2 also add up to 180, so solve for Angle 2

5(15) + 14= 89

180-89= 91, so angle 1 is 91 degrees.

Answers

Answer:

The IV will run [tex]66.67 \ ml /hr[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass of Magnesium sulfate is  [tex]m_g = 30 \ g[/tex]

   The volume of the Magnesium sulfate  [tex]V_R = 500ml[/tex]

   The rate at which the dose of the solution (Magnesium sulfate + Lactated Ringers. ) is infused is  [tex]R = 4g/hr[/tex]

   

The concentration of Magnesium sulfate in Lactated Ringers  is mathematically evaluated as

         [tex]C_m = \frac{m_g}{V_R}[/tex]

substituting values

          [tex]C_m = \frac{30}{500}[/tex]

          [tex]C_m = 0.06\ g/ ml[/tex]

This implies that

     0.06 g of Magnesium sulfate is in every 1 ml of  Lactated Ringers

So  4 g  of  Magnesium sulfate is in x ml of  Lactated Ringers

So

        [tex]x = \frac{4}{0.06}[/tex]

       [tex]x = 66.67 \ ml[/tex]

So the amount of the solution in ml that is been infused in 1 hour is  

      [tex]66.67 \ ml /hr[/tex]
