The results of a common standardized test used in psychology research is designed so that the population mean is 155 and the standard deviation is 50. A subject earns a score of 155. How many standard deviations from the mean is the value 155

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The value 155 is zero standard deviations from the [population] mean, because [tex] \\ x = \mu[/tex], and therefore [tex] \\ z = 0[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

The key concept we need to manage here is the z-scores (or standardized values), and we can obtain a z-score using the next formula:

[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [1]

Where

z is the z-score.x is the raw score: an observation from the normally distributed data that we want standardize using [1].[tex] \\ \mu[/tex] is the population mean.[tex] \\ \sigma[/tex] is the population standard deviation.

Carefully looking at [1], we can interpret it as the distance from the mean of a raw value in standard deviations units. When the z-score is negative indicates that the raw score, x, is below the population mean, [tex] \\ \mu[/tex]. Conversely, a positive z-score is telling us that x is above the population mean. A z-score is also fundamental when determining probabilities using the standard normal distribution.

For example, think about a z-score = 1. In this case, the raw score is, after being standardized using [1], one standard deviation above from the population mean. A z-score = -1 is also one standard deviation from the mean but below it.

These standardized values have always the same probability in the standard normal distribution, and this is the advantage of using it for calculating probabilities for normally distributed data.

A subject earns a score of 155. How many standard deviations from the mean is the value 155?

From the question, we know that:

x = 155.[tex] \\ \mu = 155[/tex].[tex] \\ \sigma = 50[/tex].

Having into account all the previous information, we can say that the raw score, x = 155, is zero standard deviations units from the mean. The subject   earned a score that equals the population mean. Then, using [1]:

[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex] \\ z = \frac{155 - 155}{50}[/tex]

[tex] \\ z = \frac{0}{50}[/tex]

[tex] \\ z = 0[/tex]

As we say before, the z-score "tells us" the distance from the population mean, and in this case this value equals zero:  

[tex] \\ x = \mu[/tex]

Therefore

[tex] \\ z = 0[/tex]

So, the value 155 is zero standard deviations from the [population] mean.

Q‒4. Suppose A is the set composed of all ordered pairs of positive integers. Let R be the relation defined on A where (a,b)R(c,d) means that a+d=b+c.
Prove that R is an equivalence relation.
Find [(2,4)].

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

REcall that given a set A, * is a equivalence relation over A if

- for a in A, then a*a.

- for a,b in A. If a*b, then b*a.

- for a,b,c in A. If a*b and b*c then a*c.

Consider A the set of all ordered pairs of positive integers.

- Let (a,b) in A. Then a+b = a+b. So, by definition (a,b)R(a,b).

- Let (a,b), (c,d) in A and suppose that (a,b)R(c,d) . Then, by definition a+d = b+c. Since the + is commutative over the integers, this implies that d+a = c+b. Then (c,d)R(a,b).

- Let (a,b),(c,d), (e,f) in A and suppose that (a,b)R(c,d) and (c,d)R(e,f). Then

a+d = b+c, c+f = d+e.  We have that f = d+e-c. So a+f = a+d+e-c. From the first equation we find that a+d-c = b. Then a+f = b+e. So, by definition (a,b)R(e,f).

So R is an equivalence relation.

[(a,b)] is the equivalence class of (a,b). This is by definition, finding all the elements of A that are equivalente to (a,b).

Let us find all the possible elements of A that are equivalent to (2,4). Let (a,b)R(2,4) Then a+4 = b+2. This implies that a+2 = b. So all the elements of the form (a,a+2) are part of this class.

Records on a fleet of trucks reveal that the average life of a set of spark plugs is normally distributed with a mean of 22,100 miles. The fleet owner purchased 18 sets and found that the sample average life was 23,400 miles; the sample standard deviation was 1,412 miles.

a) To decide if the sample data support the company records that the spark plugs average 22,100 miles, state your decision in terms of the null hypothesis. Use a 0.05 level of significance.

b) What is the critical value for the test using a 0.05 level of significance?

c) What is the test statistic?

Answer:

a) We want to conduct a hypothesis in order to see if the true mean is 22100 or not, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]\mu = 22100[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]\mu \neq 22100[/tex]  

b) We need to find the degrees of freedom given by:

[tex] df =n-1 = 18-1=17[/tex]

And the critical values for this case are:

[tex] t_{\alpha/2}= 2.110[/tex]

c) [tex]t=\frac{23400-22100}{\frac{1412}{\sqrt{18}}}=3.906[/tex]  

d) Since the calculated value is higher than the critical value we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly different from 221100 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

We want to conduct a hypothesis in order to see if the true mean is 22100 or not, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]\mu = 22100[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]\mu \neq 22100[/tex]  

Part b

We need to find the degrees of freedom given by:

[tex] df =n-1 = 18-1=17[/tex]

A newborn baby whose Apgar score is over 6 is classified as normal and this happens in 80% of births. As a quality control check, an auditor examined the records of 100 births. He would be suspicious if the number of normal births in the sample of 100 births fell below the lower limit of "usual." What is that lower limit?

Answers

Answer:

The lower limit is 72.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use 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.

If X is more than 2 standard deviations from the mean, it is unusual.

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.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

In this question, we have that:

[tex]n = 100, p = 0.8[/tex]

So

[tex]\mu = 0.8, s = \sqrt{\frac{0.8*0.2}{100}} = 0.04[/tex]

He would be suspicious if the number of normal births in the sample of 100 births fell below the lower limit of "usual." What is that lower limit?

2 standard deviations below the mean is the lower limit, so X when Z = -2.

Proportion:

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]-2 = \frac{X - 0.8}{0.04}[/tex]

[tex]X - 0.8 = -2*0.04[/tex]

[tex]X = 0.72[/tex]

Out of 100:

0.72*100 = 72

The lower limit is 72.

Answers

Answer:

c) 5√2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A square with side length l has a perimeter given by the following equation:

P = 4l.

In this question:

P = 20

So the side length is:

4l = 20

l = 20/4

l = 5

Diagonal

The diagonal forms a right triangle with two sides, in which the diagonal is the hypothenuse. Applying the pytagoras theorem.

[tex]d^{2} = l^{2} + l^{2}[/tex]

[tex]d^{2} = 5^{2} + 5^{2}[/tex]

[tex]d^{2} = 50[/tex]

[tex]d = \pm \sqrt{50}[/tex]

Lenght is a positive meausre, so

[tex]d = \sqrt{50}[/tex]

[tex]d = \sqrt{2 \times 25}[/tex]

Find the percent of area under a normal curve between the mean and the given number of standard deviations from the mean.​ (Note that positive indicates above the​ mean, while negative indicates below the​ mean.)0.20

Answers

Answer:

15.86%

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use 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.

Percent of area between the mean and 0.20 standard deviations from the mean:

pvalue of Z = 0.2 subtracted by the pvalue of Z = -0.2

Z = 0.2 has a pvalue of 0.5793

Z = -0.2 has a pvalue of 0.4207

0.5793 - 0.4207 = 0.1586

So this percentage is 15.86%

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of obtaining a defective 10-year old widget is 66.6%

p = 66.6% = 0.666

The probability of obtaining a non-defective 10-year old widget is

If one person is randomly selected from this sample, find the probability of getting someone who is age 23-30 or smokes.

Answers

The correct question is:

A study of consumer smoking habits includes 167 people in the 18-22 age bracket (59 of whom smoke), 148 people in the 23-30 age bracket (31 of whom smoke), and 85 people in the 31-40 age bracket (23 of whom smoke). If one person is randomly selected from this sample, find the probability of getting someone who is age 23-30 or smokes

Answer:

The probability of getting someone who is age 23-30 or smokes = 0.575

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Number consumers of age 18 - 22 = 167

Number of consumers of ages 22 - 30 = 148

Number of consumers of ages 31 - 40 = 85

Thus,total number of consumers in the survey = 167 + 148 + 85 = 400

We are also given;

Number consumers of age 18 - 22 who smoke = 59

Number of consumers of ages 22 - 30 who smoke = 31

Number of consumers of ages 31 - 40 who smoke = 23

Total number of people who smoke = 59 + 31 + 23 = 113

Let event A = someone of age 23-30 and event B = someone who smokes. Thus;

P(A) = 148/400

P(B) = 113/400

P(A & B) = 31/400

Now, from addition rule in sets which is given by;

P(A or B) = P (A) + P (B) – P (A and B)

We can now solve the question.

Thus;

P(A or B) = (148/400) + (113/400) - (31/400)

P(A or B) = 230/400 = 0.575

∠BAD is bisected by AC and measurement of BAC is equal to 2x - 5 and measurement of CAD is equal to 145. Since they are bisected, they are equal and the solution is shown below:

m ∠ BAC = m ∠ CAD

2x - 5 = 145 , transpose -5 to the opposite side such as:

2x = 145 + 5 , perform addition of 145 and 5

2x = 150

2x / 2 = 150 / 2 , divide both sides by 2

Records also indicate that three times as many king-size mattresses are sold as twin-size mattresses. Calculate the probability that the next mattress sold is either king or queen-size.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the next mattress sold is either king or queen-size is P=0.8.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 3 types of matress: queen size (Q), king size (K) and twin size (T).

We will treat the probability as the proportion (or relative frequency) of sales of each type of matress.

We know that the number of queen-size mattresses sold is one-fourth the number of king and twin-size mattresses combined. This can be expressed as:

[tex]P_Q=\dfrac{P_K+P_T}{4}\\\\\\4P_Q-P_K-P_T=0[/tex]

We also know that three times as many king-size mattresses are sold as twin-size mattresses. We can express that as:

[tex]P_K=3P_T\\\\P_K-3P_T=0[/tex]

Finally, we know that the sum of probablities has to be 1, or 100%.

We can solve this by sustitution:

[tex]P_K=3P_T\\\\4P_Q=P_K+P_T=3P_T+P_T=4P_T\\\\P_Q=P_T\\\\\\P_Q+P_K+P_T=1\\\\P_T+3P_T+P_T=1\\\\5P_T=1\\\\P_T=0.2\\\\\\P_Q=P_T=0.2\\\\P_K=3P_T=3\cdot0.2=0.6[/tex]

You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of men over the age of 50 who regularly have their prostate examined is significantly less than 0.3. A random sample of 735 men over the age of 50 found that 203 have their prostate regularly examined. Do the sample data provide convincing evidence to support the claim

Answers

Answer:

[tex]z=\frac{0.276 -0.3}{\sqrt{\frac{0.3(1-0.3)}{735}}}=-1.42[/tex]  

Now we can claculate the p value with this formula:

[tex]p_v =P(z<-1.42)=0.0778[/tex]  

If we use a signifiacn level of 5% we see that the p value is higher than 0.05 so then we have enough evidence to fail to reject the null hypothesis and we can't conclude that the true proportion is significantly higher than 0.3 at 5% of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Information to given

n=735 represent the random sample taken

X=203 represent the number of people who have their prostate regularly examined

[tex]\hat p=\frac{203}{735}=0.276[/tex] estimated proportion of people who have their prostate regularly examined  

[tex]p_o=0.3[/tex] is the value to verify

z would represent the statistic

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

System of hypothesis

We want to test if the true proportion is less than 0.3, the ystem of hypothesis are.:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]p \geq 0.3[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]p < 0.3[/tex]  

The statistic is given by:

[tex]z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}[/tex] (1)  

Replacing the info we got:

[tex]z=\frac{0.276 -0.3}{\sqrt{\frac{0.3(1-0.3)}{735}}}=-1.42[/tex]  

Now we can claculate the p value with this formula:

[tex]p_v =P(z<-1.42)=0.0778[/tex]  

If we use a signifiacn level of 5% we see that the p value is higher than 0.05 so then we have enough evidence to fail to reject the null hypothesis and we can't conclude that the true proportion is significantly higher than 0.3 at 5% of significance.

What is the probability that a senior Physics major and then a sophomore Physics major are chosen at random? Express your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to four decimal places

Answers

Answer:

The probability that a senior Physics major and then a sophomore Physics major are chosen at random is 0.0095.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

There are 103 students in a physics class. The instructor must choose two students at random.

Students in a Physics Class

Academic Year          Physics majors           Non-Physics majors

Freshmen                              17                                     15

Sophomores                         20                                    14

Juniors                                   11                                      17

Seniors                                   5                                       4

What is the probability that a senior Physics major and then a sophomore Physics major are chosen at random? Express your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to four decimal places.

Solution:

There are a total of N = 103 students present in a Physics class.

Some of the students are Physics Major and some are not.

The instructor has to select two students at random.

The instructor first selects a senior Physics major and then a sophomore Physics major.

Compute the probability of selecting a senior Physics major student as follows:

[tex]P(\text{Senior Physics Major})=\frac{n(\text{Senior Physics Major}) }{N}[/tex]

                                        [tex]=\frac{5}{103}\\\\=0.04854369\\\\\approx 0.0485[/tex]

Now he two students are selected without replacement.

So, after selecting a senior Physics major student there are 102 students remaining in the class.

Compute the probability of selecting a sophomore Physics major student as follows:

[tex]P(\text{Sophomore Physics Major})=\frac{n(\text{Sophomore Physics Major}) }{N}[/tex]

                                        [tex]=\frac{20}{102}\\\\=0.1960784314\\\\\approx 0.1961[/tex]

Compute the probability that a senior Physics major and then a sophomore Physics major are chosen at random as follows:

[tex]P(\text{Senior}\cap \text{Sophomore})=P(\text{Senior})\times P(\text{Sophomore})[/tex]

                                     [tex]=0.0485\times 0.1961\\\\=0.00951085\\\\\approx 0.0095[/tex]

Thus, the probability that a senior Physics major and then a sophomore Physics major are chosen at random is 0.0095.

A study seeks to answer the question, "Does Vitamin C level in the breast milk of new mothers reduce the risk of allergies in their breastfed infants?" The study concluded that high levels of vitamin C (measured in mg) were associated with a 30 percent lower risk of allergies in the infants. In this scenario, "levels of vitamin C (measured in milligrams)" is what type of variable?

Answers

Answer:

Quantitative variable

Step-by-step explanation:

The objective in this study is to find the of variable used to conduct the study. The type of variable used to conduct this study is Qualitative variable.

There are majorly two types of variable. These are:

Categorical VariableQuantitative variable                      

Categorical variables are types of variables that are grouped based on some similar characteristics. The nominal scale and the ordinal scale falls under this group of variable.

The nominal scale is an act of giving name to a particular object or concept in order to identify or classify that particular thing.

On the other hand, The ordinal scale possess all the characteristics of nominal scale but here the variables can be ordered. It can be used to determine whether the item is greater or less. It express the indication of order and magnitude.

In Qualitative variables; variables are measured on a numeric scale. From the given question , This type of variable is used to measure the high levels of vitamin C (measured in mg) which were associated with a 30 percent lower risk of allergies in the infants.

The levels of vitamin C could range from 0 mg to certain mg therefore we can measure vitamin C in numerical values of measurement (Quantitative variable).
