It appears that people who are mildly obese are less active than leaner people. One study looked at the average number of minutes per day that people spend standing or walking. Among mildly obese people, the mean number of minutes of daily activity (standing or walking) is approximately Normally distributed with mean 376 minutes and standard deviation 67 minutes. The mean number of minutes of daily activity for lean people is approximately Normally distributed with mean 520 minutes and standard deviation 110 minutes. A researcher records the minutes of activity for an SRS of 7 mildly obese people and an SRS of 7 lean people.
A) What is the probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 mildly obese people exceeds 420 minutes?
B) What is the probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 lean people exceeds 420 minutes?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.0537 = 5.37% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 mildly obese people exceeds 420 minutes

b) 0.9871 = 98.71% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 lean people exceeds 420 minutes

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 normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score 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 p-value, 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.

Mildly obese:

Mean 376 minutes and standard deviation 67 minutes, which means that [tex]\mu = 376, \sigma = 67[/tex]

Sample of 6

This means that [tex]n = 6, s = \frac{67}{\sqrt{6}} = 27.35[/tex]

Lean

Mean 520 minutes and standard deviation 110 minutes, which means that [tex]\mu = 520, \sigma = 110[/tex]

Sample of 6

[tex]n = 6, s = \frac{110}{\sqrt{6}} = 44.91[/tex]

A) What is the probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 mildly obese people exceeds 420 minutes?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 420, using the mean and standard deviation for mildly obese people. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{420 - 376}{27.35}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.61[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.61[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9463

1 - 0.9463 = 0.0537

0.0537 = 5.37% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 mildly obese people exceeds 420 minutes.

B) What is the probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 lean people exceeds 420 minutes?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 420, using the mean and standard deviation for lean people. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{420 - 520}{44.91}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.23[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.23[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0129

1 - 0.0129 = 0.9871

0.9871 = 98.71% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 6 lean people exceeds 420 minutes

We created this inequality to represent how Amy can meet her revenue goals:

-100x2 + 15,750x + 212,500 ≥ 243,600

In this activity, you’ll solve this inequality to find the minimum ticket price Amy should charge to meet her minimum revenue goal.

Step 1: set the inequality greater than or equal to zero
Step 2: simplify the inequality by dividing by the GCP so the leading coefficient is positive
Step 3: factor the left side of the inequality by grouping
Step 4: solve the quadratic inequality. Remember to check any possible solutions for viability.
Step 5: what is the minimum number of $2 increases that Amy needs to apply to the ticket price to reach her desired revenue?
Step 6: What’s the minimum ticket price that Amy can charge and reach her goal? Recall that the ticket price is represented by 25 + 2x, where x represents the number of $2 increases.

This leaves on the left and three 1s on the right, so x=3. This is like x+2=5 if you subtract 2 from the x side then you get x=3. Hope this helps!

Given the definitions of f(x) and g(x) below, find the value of (g o f) (-3)
f(x)=2x^2+6x+9
g(x)=3x-6

Answers

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

(g o f) (-3) = g ( f(-3) )

First, let's find f(-3):

f(x)=2x²+6x+9

f(-3)=2(-3²)+6(-3)+9

f(-3)=18-18+9

f(-3)=9

Now that we know the value of f(-3), we can sub this into g(f(-3)):

g ( f(-3) ) = g(9)

Find g(9):

g(9)=3x-6

g(9)=3(9)-6

g(9)=27-6

find the centre and radius of the following Cycles 9 x square + 9 y square +27 x + 12 y + 19 equals 0​

Answers

Answer:

Radius: [tex]r =\frac{\sqrt {21}}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Center = (-\frac{3}{2}, -\frac{2}{3})[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]9x^2 + 9y^2 + 27x + 12y + 19 = 0[/tex]

Solving (a): The radius of the circle

First, we express the equation as:

[tex](x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2[/tex]

Where

[tex]r = radius[/tex]

[tex](h,k) =center[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]9x^2 + 9y^2 + 27x + 12y + 19 = 0[/tex]

Divide through by 9

[tex]x^2 + y^2 + 3x + \frac{12}{9}y + \frac{19}{9} = 0[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]x^2 + 3x + y^2+ \frac{12}{9}y =- \frac{19}{9}[/tex]

Group the expression into 2

[tex][x^2 + 3x] + [y^2+ \frac{12}{9}y] =- \frac{19}{9}[/tex]

[tex][x^2 + 3x] + [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y] =- \frac{19}{9}[/tex]

Next, we complete the square on each group.

For [tex][x^2 + 3x][/tex]

1: Divide the [tex]coefficient\ of\ x\ by\ 2[/tex]

2: Take the [tex]square\ of\ the\ division[/tex]

3: Add this [tex]square\ to\ both\ sides\ of\ the\ equation.[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex][x^2 + 3x] + [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y] =- \frac{19}{9}[/tex]

[tex][x^2 + 3x + (\frac{3}{2})^2] + [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y] =- \frac{19}{9}+ (\frac{3}{2})^2[/tex]

Factorize

[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y] =- \frac{19}{9}+ (\frac{3}{2})^2[/tex]

Apply the same to y

[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y^2+ \frac{4}{3}y +(\frac{4}{6})^2 ] =- \frac{19}{9}+ (\frac{3}{2})^2 +(\frac{4}{6})^2[/tex]

[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =- \frac{19}{9}+ (\frac{3}{2})^2 +(\frac{4}{6})^2[/tex]

[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =- \frac{19}{9}+ \frac{9}{4} +\frac{16}{36}[/tex]

Add the fractions

[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =\frac{-19 * 4 + 9 * 9 + 16 * 1}{36}[/tex]

[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =\frac{21}{36}[/tex]

[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{4}{6}]^2 =\frac{7}{12}[/tex]

[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{2}{3}]^2 =\frac{7}{12}[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex](x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2[/tex]

By comparison:

[tex]r^2 =\frac{7}{12}[/tex]

Take square roots of both sides

[tex]r =\sqrt{\frac{7}{12}}[/tex]

Split

[tex]r =\frac{\sqrt 7}{\sqrt 12}[/tex]

Rationalize

[tex]r =\frac{\sqrt 7*\sqrt 12}{\sqrt 12*\sqrt 12}[/tex]

[tex]r =\frac{\sqrt {84}}{12}[/tex]

[tex]r =\frac{\sqrt {4*21}}{12}[/tex]

[tex]r =\frac{2\sqrt {21}}{12}[/tex]

[tex]r =\frac{\sqrt {21}}{6}[/tex]

Solving (b): The center

Recall that:

[tex](x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2[/tex]

Where

[tex]r = radius[/tex]

[tex](h,k) =center[/tex]

From:

[tex][x + \frac{3}{2}]^2+ [y +\frac{2}{3}]^2 =\frac{7}{12}[/tex]

[tex]-h = \frac{3}{2}[/tex] and [tex]-k = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Solve for h and k

[tex]h = -\frac{3}{2}[/tex] and [tex]k = -\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Hence, the center is:

[tex]Center = (-\frac{3}{2}, -\frac{2}{3})[/tex]

A research company desires to know the mean consumption of meat per week among males over age 43. A sample of 1384 males over age 43 was drawn and the mean meat consumption was 3 pounds. Assume that the population standard deviation is known to be 1.3 pounds. Construct the 99% confidence interval for the mean consumption of meat among males over age 43. Round your answers to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the mean consumption of meat among males over age 43 is between 2.9 pounds and 3.1 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.005[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.005 = 0.995[/tex], so Z = 2.575.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

[tex]M = 2.575\frac{1.3}{\sqrt{1384}} = 0.1[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 3 - 0.1 = 2.9 pounds

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 3 + 0.01 = 3.1 pounds

The 99% confidence interval for the mean consumption of meat among males over age 43 is between 2.9 pounds and 3.1 pounds.

I will ONLY give you a brainliest of you answer this questions CORRECTLY!

Answers

Answer:

Therefore, Cylinder B's surface area is four times greater than Cylinder A's surface area.

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of a cylinder = 2πrh+2πr² = 2π(rh+r²)

Cylinder A = 2π(rh+r²)

Cylinder B = 2π((2r)(2h)+(2r)²) = 2π(4rh+4r²)=2π(4(rh+r²))

To find how many times greater Cylinder B's surface area is than Cylinder A's surface area, divide:

[tex]\frac{Cylinder B}{Cylinder A}[/tex]

=2π(4(rh+r²))/2π(rh+r²)

(divide top and bottom by 2π)

=4(rh+r²)/(rh+r²)

(divide top and bottom by (rh+r²))

=4

Therefore, Cylinder B's surface area is four times greater than Cylinder A's surface area.
