Suppose that a random sample of size 36 is to be selected from a population with mean 50 and standard deviation 7. What is the approximate probability that X will be within .5 of the population mean

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that x is normally distributed. The sample size is greater than 30. Since the the population mean and population standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,

z = (x - µ)/(σ/√n)

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = standard deviation

n = number of samples

From the information given,

µ = 50

σ = 7

n = 36

If x is within 0.5 of the population mean, it means that x is between (50 - 0.5) and (50 + 0.5)

the probability is expressed as

P(49.5 ≤ x ≤ 50.5)

For x = 49.5

z = (49.5 - 50)/(7/√36) = - 0.43

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.334

For x = 49.5

z = (50.5 - 50)/(7/√36) = 0.43

Looking at the normal distribution table, the probability corresponding to the z score is 0.666

Therefore,

P(49.5 ≤ x ≤ 50.5) = 0.666 - 0.334 = 0.332

Answers

Answer:

C. The given function is continuous at x=4 because the limit is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function:

[tex]f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{1}{4}x+1 &x\leq 4\\4x-11&x>4\end{array}\right[/tex]

We are to determine if the function is continuous at x=4.

For a function to be continuous  at some value c in its domain:

f(c) must be defined.[tex]Lim_{x \to c}$ f(x)[/tex] must exist. [tex]f(c)=Lim_{x \to c}$ f(x)[/tex]

Now: at x=4

[tex]f(4)=\dfrac{1}{4}*4+1=2[/tex][tex]Lim_{x \to 4}f(x)=2[/tex]

Since the two values are the same, we say that f(x) is continuous at x=4.

The correct option is C.

Suppose you want to buy a new car and are trying to choose between two models: Model A: costs $16,500 and its gas mileage is 25 miles per gallon and its insurance is $250 per year. Model B: costs $24,500 and its gas mileage is 40 miles per gallon and its insurance is $450 per year. If you drive approximately 40,000 miles per year and the gas costs $3 per gallon:
1. Find a formula for the total cost of owning Model A where the number of years you own the car is represented by x.
2. Find a formula for the total cost of owning Model B where the number of years is the independent variable.
3. Find the total cost for each model for the first five years. If you plan to keep the car for 4 years, which model is more economical?
4. Find the number of years in which the total cost to keep the two cars will be the same.
5. Identify the number of months where neither car holds a cost of ownership advantage.
6. What effect would the cost of gas doubling have on cost of ownership?
7. If you can sell neither car for 40% of its value at any time, how does the analysis change?

Answers

Answer:

1. CA=16,500+5,050x

2. CB=24,500+3,450x

3. CA(x=5)=CB(x=5)=41,750

If keeped 4 years, Model A is more economical.

4. 5 years

5. From month 49 to 61.

6. The cost of ownership of Model A increases more than Model B, as it is less gas efficient. The break-even point for x is reduced from x=5 to x=2.35.

7. The fixed cost are reduced by a 40%, so the variable cost, the ones that depend on time of ownership, are increased in importance.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can express the cost of ownership as the sum of the purchase cost, gas cost and insurance cost.

1. For model A we have:

[tex]\text{Cost of ownership}=\text{Purchase cost}+\text{Gas cost}+\text{Insurance cost}\\\\\text{Cost of ownership}=\$16,500+3 \dfrac{\$}{gal}\cdot\dfrac{1\,gal}{25\,miles}\cdot \dfrac{40,000\,miles}{year}\cdot x+\$250\cdot x\\\\\\\text{Cost of ownership}=\$16,500+\$4,800x+\$250x\\\\\\\text{Cost of ownership}=$16,500+\$5,050x[/tex]

2. For model B we have:

[tex]\text{Cost of ownership}=\text{Purchase cost}+\text{Gas cost}+\text{Insurance cost}\\\\\text{Cost of ownership}=\$24,500+3 \dfrac{\$}{gal}\cdot\dfrac{1\,gal}{40\,miles}\cdot \dfrac{40,000\,miles}{year}\cdot x+\$450\cdot x\\\\\\\text{Cost of ownership}=\$24,500+\$3,000x+\$450x\\\\\\\text{Cost of ownership}=$24,500+\$3,450x[/tex]

3. If x=5, the costs for each car are:

[tex]\text{CoOwn A}=16,500+5,050\cdot(5)=16,500+25,250=41,750\\\\\\\text{CoOwn B}=24,500+3,450\cdot(5)=24,500+17,250=41,750[/tex]

5 years is the break-even point for the cost of ownership between these two cars.

If you plan to keep the car for 4 years, the costs are:

[tex]\text{CoOwn A}=16,500+5,050\cdot(4)=16,500+20,200=36,700\\\\\\\text{CoOwn B}=24,500+3,450\cdot(4)=24,500+13,800=38,300[/tex]

For a 4 year period ownership, the model A is more economical ($36,700).

4. This happens for 1 year, the fifth year, in which the two models have the same cost of ownership.

5. At the 5th year, the cost for both models are the same.

Then, this corresponds to the months 4*12+1=48+1=49 and 5*12+1=61.

6. If the cost of gas doubles, the cost of ownership would rise for both model, but more for the Model A, which is less gas efficient and hence has a higher gas cost.

Model A

[tex]\text{Cost of ownership}=\text{Purchase cost}+\text{Gas cost}+\text{Insurance cost}\\\\\text{Cost of ownership}=\$16,500+6 \dfrac{\$}{gal}\cdot\dfrac{1\,gal}{25\,miles}\cdot \dfrac{40,000\,miles}{year}\cdot x+\$250\cdot x\\\\\\\text{Cost of ownership}=\$16,500+\$9,600x+\$250x\\\\\\\text{Cost of ownership}=$16,500+\$9,850x[/tex]

Model B

[tex]\text{Cost of ownership}=\text{Purchase cost}+\text{Gas cost}+\text{Insurance cost}\\\\\text{Cost of ownership}=\$24,500+6 \dfrac{\$}{gal}\cdot\dfrac{1\,gal}{40\,miles}\cdot \dfrac{40,000\,miles}{year}\cdot x+\$450\cdot x\\\\\\\text{Cost of ownership}=\$24,500+\$6,000x+\$450x\\\\\\\text{Cost of ownership}=$24,500+\$6,450x[/tex]

The breakeven point goes from x=5 (for $3 per gallon) to x=2.35 (for $6 per gallon).

[tex]16,500+9,850x=24,500+6,450x\\\\(9,850-6,450)x=24,500-16,500\\\\x=8,000/3400=2.35[/tex]

7. If we can sell any car for 40% of its value at any time, the cost of ownership becames:

Model A:

[tex]\text{Cost of ownership}=16,500+5,050x-0.4\cdot16,500\\\\\text{Cost of ownership}=9,900+5,050x[/tex]

Model B

[tex]\text{Cost of ownership}=24,500+3,450x-0.4\cdot24,500\\\\\text{Cost of ownership}=14,700+3,450x[/tex]

The fixed costs are lowered by 40%, so the variable costs (the ones that depend on time) became more important.

Given: AB || DE , AD bisects BE.
Prove: ABC = DEC using the ASA postulate.

Answers

Answer:

As per ASA postulate, the two triangles are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two triangles:

[tex]\triangle ABC[/tex] and [tex]\triangle DEC[/tex].

AD bisects BE.

AB || DE.

Let us have a look at two properties.

1. When two lines are parallel and a line intersects both of them, then alternate angles are equal.

i.e. AB || ED and [tex]\angle B[/tex] and [tex]\angle E[/tex] are alternate angles [tex]\Rightarrow[/tex] [tex]\angle B = \angle E[/tex].

2. When two lines are cutting each other, angles formed at the crossing of two, are known as Vertically opposite angles and they are are equal.

[tex]\Rightarrow \angle ACB = \angle DCE[/tex]

Also, it is given that AD bisects BE.

i.e. EC = CB

1. [tex]\angle B = \angle E[/tex]

2. EC = CB

3. [tex]\angle ACB = \angle DCE[/tex]

So, we can in see that in [tex]\triangle ABC[/tex] and [tex]\triangle DEC[/tex], two angles are equal and side between them is also equal to each other.

Hence, proved that [tex]\triangle ABC[/tex] [tex]\cong[/tex] [tex]\triangle DEC[/tex].

The area of a circle is 153.86 square meters. What is the diameter of the circle? Use 3.14 for π.

Answers

Answer:

Option (2). 14 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to get the area of a circle 'A' = [tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex]

where r = radius of the circle

Given in the question,

Area of the circle = 153.86 square meters

By putting the values in the formula,

153.86 = πr²

r = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{153.86}{\pi } }[/tex]

r = [tex]\sqrt{49}[/tex]

r = 7 meters

Diameter of circle = 2 × (radius of the circle)

                              = 2 × 7

                              = 14 meters

Therefore, diameter of the circle is 14 meters.

[tex]x_2 = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}5256\\396\\27\end{array}\right][/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A population has the following characteristics.

A total of 25% of the population survives the first year. Of that 25%, 75% survives the second year.

The average number of offspring for each member of the population is 3 the first year, 5 the second year, and 3 the third year.

From the above information, we can construct a transition age matrix.

[tex]A = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&5&3\\0.25&0&0\\0&0.75&0\end{array}\right][/tex]

The population now consists of 144 members in each of the three age classes.

From the above information, we can construct the current age matrix.

[tex]x = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}144\\144\\144\end{array}\right][/tex]

How many members will there be in each age class in 1 year?

After 1st year, the age distribution will be

[tex]x_1 = A \cdot x[/tex]

[tex]x_1 = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&5&3\\0.25&0&0\\0&0.75&0\end{array}\right] \times \left[\begin{array}{ccc}144\\144\\144\end{array}\right][/tex]

The matrix multiplication is possible since the number of columns of first matrix is equal to the number of rows of second matrix.

[tex]x_1 = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1584\\36\\108\end{array}\right][/tex]

After 2nd year, the age distribution will be

[tex]x_2 = A \cdot x_1[/tex]

[tex]x_2 = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&5&3\\0.25&0&0\\0&0.75&0\end{array}\right] \times \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1584\\36\\108\end{array}\right][/tex]

c) infinitely many solutions (a. b, c) = ([])

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are

x + y = 6- - - - - - - - -1

y + z = 6- - - - - - - -2

x + z = 6- - - - - - - - - 3

From equation 2, y = 6 - z

Substituting y = 6 - z into equation 1, it becomes

x + 6 - z = 6

x - z = 6 - 6

x - z = 0

x = z

Substituting x = z into equation 3, it becomes

z + z = 6

2z = 6

z = 6/2

z = 3

x = 3

Substituting x = 3 into equation 1, it becomes

3 + y = 6

y = 6 - 3

y = 3

ax + by + cz = 0

3a + 3b + 3c = 0

3(a + b + c) = 0
