In the western region of the state the times of all boys running in this event are normally distributed with standard deviation 12 seconds, but with mean 5 minutes 22 seconds. Find the proportion of boys from this region who qualify to run in this event in the state meet. (Hint: normalcdf)

Answers

Answer 1

Here is the full question.

The average finishing time among all high school boys in a particular track event in a certain state is 5 minutes 17 seconds. Times are normally distributed with standard deviation 12 seconds.

A.  The qualifying time in this event for participation in the state meet is to be set so that only the fastest 5% of all runners qualify. Find the qualifying time in seconds (round it to the closest second). (Hint: Convert minutes to seconds.)  

B. In the western region of the state the times of all boys running in this event are normally distributed with standard deviation 12 seconds, but with mean 5 minutes 22 seconds. Find the proportion of boys from this region who qualify to run in this event in the state meet. (Hint: normalcdf)

Answer:

a. x ≅ 337 seconds.

b. P(x > 337 )  = 0.1056

Step-by-step explanation:

A.

Given that ;

Mean [tex]\mu =[/tex] 5 minutes 17 seconds =( (60× 5)+17  ) seconds  = 317 seconds   ( since 60 seconds make 1 minute.

Standard deviation: [tex]\sigma[/tex] = 12 seconds.

Only the fastest 5% of all runners qualify

The objective is to determine the qualifying time in seconds

Let's look for the Z-score of 0.95;

The Z-score is 1.645 from the tables

[tex]x= ( \sigma * z ) + \mu[/tex]

[tex]x = ( 12 * 1.645 ) + 317 \\ \\x = 336.74[/tex]

x ≅ 337 seconds.

B. Given that the standard deviation = 12 seconds

Mean = 5 minutes 22 seconds = (5 × 60 + 22 )seconds = 322 seconds

he objective is  to find P(x > 337 )   i.e the proportion of boys from this region who qualify to run in this event in the state meet.

we are using command normalcdf   (SEE THE ATTACHED FILE BELOW FOR THE COMPUTATION)

we have  P(x > 337 )  = 0.1056

In The Western Region Of The State The Times Of All Boys Running In This Event Are Normally Distributed

Answers

Answer:

The volume of the space outside the pyramid but inside the prism is 225 cubic centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, you subtract the volume of the pyramid from the volume of the rectangular prism.

The prism and pyramid's bases is 25 cm²

The pyramid's height is 12÷2 or 6 cm

The volume formula for a prism is l×w×h

The volume formula for a pyramid is [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] ×b×h

The area of the prism is 5×5×12 or 300 cm³

The area of the pyramid is [tex]\frac{1}{3} *25*6[/tex] or 75 cm³

300 cm³-75 cm³=225 cm³

The volume outside the pyramid but inside the prism is 225 cm³.

The amount of energy associated with a production of bottled water is approximately Normal with a mean of 8.7 million Joules and a standard deviation 0.5 million Joules. How much energy should be required for the bottom 80% of bottled water?

Answers

Answer:

At most 9.12 joules should be required for the bottom 80% of bottled water

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 8.7, \sigma = 0.5[/tex]

How much energy should be required for the bottom 80% of bottled water?

At most the 80th percentile.

The 80th percentile is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So it is X when Z = 0.84.

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

[tex]0.84 = \frac{X - 8.7}{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]X - 8.7 = 0.84*0.5[/tex]

[tex]X = 9.12[/tex]

At most 9.12 joules should be required for the bottom 80% of bottled water

In two or more complete sentences, compare the number of x-intercepts in the graph of f(x) = x2 to the number of x-intercepts in the graph of g(x) = (x-2)2 -3. Be sure to include the transformations that occurred between the parent function f(x) and its image g(x).

Answers

Answer:

Ok, for f(x) = x^2 we have only one x-intercept (actually, two equal x-intercepts) at x = 0.

Now, for g(x) = (x - 2)^2 - 3

First, let's analyze the transformations.

When we have g(x) = f(x - a) this means that we moved "a" units to the right (if a is positive)

When we have g(x) = f(x) + a, this means that (if a > 0) we move the graph "a" units up.

In this case we have both those transformations:

g(x) = f(x - 2) - 3

this means that we move 2 units to the right, and 3 units down (because the number is negative)

now we can find the roots of g(x) as:

g(x) = (x - 2)^2 - 3 = x^2 - 4x  + 4 - 3 = x^2 - 4x + 1 = 0

using the Bhaskara's equation:

[tex]x = \frac{4 +-\sqrt{4^2 - 4*1*1} }{2*1} = \frac{4 +- 3.5}{2}[/tex]

then the roots are:

x = (4 + 3.5)/2 = 3.75

x = (4 - 3.5)/2 = 0.25

Here we have two different x-intercepts

A group of 8 friends (5 girls and 3 boys) plans to watch a movie, but they have only 5 tickets. If they randomly decide who
what is the probability that there are at least 3 girls in the group that watch the movle?

Answers

Answer:

53.57%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate first the specific number of events that interest us, if at least 3 are girls, they mean that 2 are boys, therefore we must find the combinations of 3 girls of 5 and 2 boys of 3, and multiply that, so :

# of ways to succeed = 5C3 * 3C2 = 5! / (3! * (5-3)!) * 3! / (2! * (3-2)!)

 = 10 * 3 = 30

That is, there are 30 favorable cases, now we must calculate the total number of options, which would be the combination of 5 people from the group of 8.

# of random groups of 5 = 8C5 = 8! / (5! * (8-5)!) = 56

That is to say, in total there are 56 ways, the probability would be the quotient of these two numbers like this:

P (3 girls and 2 boys) = 30/56 = 0.5357

Which means that the probability is 53.57%

Vertical Line Test

ApplicationStep 1: Define

Let's see what we are given.

We are given a graph of an inverse of a function.

Step 2: Identify

We need to figure out whether the graphed inverse function is a function or not.

By the definition of a function, we know that every x input must correlate with one y output. In layman's terms, each respective x input has its own specific y output.

This definition builds the foundation of the Vertical Line Test. We can use this simple "tool" to verify whether or not a given graph is a function or not.

By placing a vertical line "on" the graph, we can move it to determine whether an x input has only one y output.If a graph passes the Vertical Line Test, it is said to be a function.If a graph fails the Vertical Line Test, it is said to not be a function, but rather a relation, etc.

Step 3: Test

When we apply the Vertical Line Test to the graphed inverse function, we can see that every x input has only one specific y output.

∴ we can conclude that the graphed inverse function is indeed a function.

The answer to the question would be A. True.

At the end of the semester :"Having a copy of the lecture notes was helpful in understanding the material." Responses were measured on a nine-point semantic difference scale, where 1="strongly disagree" and 9=" strongly agree." A summary of the results is reported in the follow:

c. Construct a 99% confidence interval for (μ1-μ2). Interpret the result.
d. Would a 95% confidence interval for (μ1-μ2) be narrow or wider than the one you found in part c? Why?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The number of students sampled in both populations are large. We can assume that the populations are normally distributed. The populations are also independent.

b) This is a test of 2 independent groups. Let μ1 be the mean responses of students buying lecture notes and μ2 be the mean responses of students not buying lecture notes.

The random variable is μ1 - μ2 = difference in the mean responses of students buying lecture notes and the mean responses of students not buying lecture notes.

We would set up the hypothesis.

The null hypothesis is

H0 : μ1 = μ2 H0 : μ1 - μ2 = 0

The alternative hypothesis is

H1 : μ1 ≠ μ2 H1 : μ1 - μ2 ≠ 0

This is a two tailed test.

Since sample standard deviation is known, we would determine the test statistic by using the t test. The formula is

(x1 - x2)/√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2)

From the information given,

x1 = 8.48

x2 = 7.8

s1 = 0.94

s2 = 2.99

n1 = 86

n2 = 35

t = (8.48 - 7.8)/√(0.94²/86 + 2.99²/35)

t = 1.32

The formula for determining the degree of freedom is

df = [s1²/n1 + s2²/n2]²/(1/n1 - 1)(s1²/n1)² + (1/n2 - 1)(s2²/n2)²

df = [0.94²/86 + 2.99²/35]²/[(1/86 - 1)(0.94²/86)² + (1/35 - 1)(2.99²/35)²] = 0.0706/0.00192021883

df = 37

We would determine the probability value from the t test calculator. It becomes

p value = 0.195

c) Since alpha, 0.01 < than the p value, 0.195, then we would fail to reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, at 5% significance level, the samples do not provide sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a difference in the mean responses of the two groups of the students.

d) The formula for determining the confidence interval for the difference of two population means is expressed as

Confidence interval = (x1 - x2) ± z√(s²/n1 + s2²/n2)

For a 99% confidence interval, the z score is 1.2.58. This is determined from the normal distribution table.

x1 - x2 = 8.48 - 7.8 = 0.68

z√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2) = 2.58√(0.94²/86 + 2.99²/35) = 1.33

The confidence interval is

0.68 ± 1.33

The upper boundary for the confidence interval is

0.68 + 1.01 = 2.01

The lower boundary for the confidence interval is

0.68 - 1.33 = - 0.65

We are confident that the difference in population means responses between the students buying lecture notes and the students not buying lecture notes is between - 0.65 and 2.01

d) For a 95% confidence interval, the z score is 1.96.

z√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2) = 1.96√(0.94²/86 + 2.99²/35) = 1.01

The confidence interval is

0.68 ± 1.01

The upper boundary for the confidence interval is

0.68 + 1.01 = 1.69

The lower boundary for the confidence interval is

0.68 - 1.01 = - 0.33

Therefore, a 95% confidence interval for (μ1-μ2) would be narrower. This is seen in the values in both scenarios.

Lola bought x pencils that cost $0.25 each and y erasers that cost $0.50. She spent less than $3. Which graph represents Lola’s purchase?

Answers

Answer:

Graph C is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lola bought X pencils that cost $0.25 and Y erasers that cost $0.50.

Total expenditure is less than $3.

If we represent expense in the equation form then it will be

Expense on pencils + expense on erasers = Total expense which is < 3

0.25X + 0.50Y < 3

Now we divide the inequality by 0.25

X + 2Y < 12

This inequality when graphed, line will be plotted in dots and area below the line will be in the shaded form.

Slope of this line is = (-1/2) {from the standard equation of line y = mx + c)

Now we come to the graphs. Here dotted line graphs are A or C.

We will calculate the slopes of the lines from the graphs A and C to get tha answer.

For Graph A

The end points are (12, 0) and (0, 3)

So slope = (y-y')/(x-x') = (3-0)/(0-12) = -3/12 = -1/4

For Graph C.

End points the line are (0, 6) and (12, 0)

Slope of the line = (0-6)/(12-0) = -6/12 = -1/2

Therefore Graph C is the answer.

Answer:

Graph C is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lola bought X pencils that cost $0.25 and Y erasers that cost $0.50.

Total expenditure is less than $3.

If we represent expense in the equation form then it will be

Expense on pencils + expense on erasers = Total expense which is < 3

0.25X + 0.50Y < 3

Now we divide the inequality by 0.25

X + 2Y < 12

This inequality when graphed, line will be plotted in dots and area below the line will be in the shaded form.

Slope of this line is = (-1/2) {from the standard equation of line y = mx + c)

Now we come to the graphs. Here dotted line graphs are A or C.

We will calculate the slopes of the lines from the graphs A and C to get tha answer.

For Graph A

The end points are (12, 0) and (0, 3)

So slope = (y-y')/(x-x') = (3-0)/(0-12) = -3/12 = -1/4

For Graph C.

End points the line are (0, 6) and (12, 0)

Slope of the line = (0-6)/(12-0) = -6/12 = -1/2

Therefore Graph C is the answer.

the ratio of the ages of Kissi and Esinam is 3:5 and that of Esinam and Lariba is 3:5 and
the sum of the ages of all 3 is 147 years, what is the age difference between oldest the youngest

Answers

Answer:

The age difference between oldest the youngest is of 48 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this question using a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

Kissi's age is x.

Esinam's age is y.

Lariba's age is z.

The ratio of the ages of Kissi and Esinam is 3:5

This means that [tex]\frac{x}{y} = \frac{3}{5}[/tex], so [tex]5x = 3y[/tex]

That of Esinam and Lariba is 3:5

This means that [tex]\frac{y}{z} = \frac{3}{5}[/tex], so[tex]5y = 3z[/tex]

The sum of the ages of all 3 is 147 years

This means that [tex]x + y + z = 147[/tex]

What is the age difference between oldest the youngest

z is the oldest

x is the youngest.

First i will find y.

We have that, from the equations above: [tex]x = \frac{3y}{5}[/tex] and [tex]z = \frac{5y}{3}[/tex]

So

[tex]x + y + z = 147[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3y}{5} + y + \frac{5y}{3} = 147[/tex]

The lesser common multiple between 5 and 3 is 15. So

[tex]\frac{3*3y + 15*y + 5*5y}{15} = 147[/tex]

[tex]49y = 147*15[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{147*15}{49}[/tex]

[tex]y = 45[/tex]

Youngest:

[tex]x = \frac{3y}{5} = \frac{3*45}{5} = 27[/tex]

Oldest:

[tex]z = \frac{5y}{3} = \frac{5*45}{3} = 75[/tex]

Difference:

75 - 27 = 48

The age difference between oldest the youngest is of 48 years.

A company sells eggs whose individual weights are normally distributed with a mean of 70\,\text{g}70g70, start text, g, end text and a standard deviation of 2\,\text{g}2g2, start text, g, end text.

What is the probability that the mean weight of 444 eggs in a package \bar x x ˉ x, with, \bar, on top is less than 68.5\,\text{g}68.5g68, point, 5, start text, g, end text?

Answers

Answer:

6.68% probability that the mean weight is below 68.5g.

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:

[tex]\mu = 70, \sigma = 2, n = 4, s = \frac{2}{\sqrt{4}} = 1[/tex]

Probability that the mean weight is below 68.5g:

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 68.5. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{68.5 - 70}{1}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.5[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0668

6.68% probability that the mean weight is below 68.5g.

Answer:

P(x ∠ 68.5) = 0.07
