Laura will have seven test scores at the end of the semester. Each of the scores is a positive integer less than or equal to $100$. Her first five scores are $80, 83, 87, 94$ and $96$. How many different values are possible for the median of her seven scores?
Answer:
2 different scores
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing we must do is define what the average is, which would be the value of half. This means that the average of 7 scores would be adding 2 more scores than the 5 we already have.
It does not matter if they are greater or less than those that already exist, they should only be equal to or less than 100 (also integers) and therefore the mean would be the 4th value of those 7 scores after organizing them from highest to lowest.

What transformations to the linear parent function, f(x) = x, give the function
g(x) = 4x - 2? Select all that apply.
A. Shift down 2 units.
B. Vertically stretch by a factor of 4.
O c. Horizontally stretch by a factor of 4.
O D. Shift left 2 units.
Answer:
A. Shift down 2 units.
B. Vertically stretch by a factor of 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the function
f(x)=x
If we stretch y vertically by a factor of m, we have: y=m·f (x)
Therefore:
Vertically stretching f(x) by a factor of 4, we have: 4x.
Next, if we take down f(x) by k units we have: y= f(x)-k
Therefore: Taking down 4x by 2 units, we obtain:
g(x)=4x-2
Therefore, Options A and B applies.
Question 2: The average price for a BMW 3 Series Coupe 335i is $39,368. Suppose these prices are also normally distributed with a standard deviation of $2,367. What percentage of BMW dealers are pricing the BMW 3 Series Coupe 335i at more than the average price ($44,520) for a Mercedes CLK350 Coupe? Round your answer to 3 decimal places.
Answer:
0.015 = 1.5% of BMW dealers are pricing the BMW 3 Series Coupe 335i at more than the average price ($44,520) for a Mercedes CLK350 Coupe
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.
In this question, we have that:
[tex]\mu = 39368, \sigma = 2367[/tex]
What percentage of BMW dealers are pricing the BMW 3 Series Coupe 335i at more than the average price ($44,520) for a Mercedes CLK350 Coupe?
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 44520. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{44520 - 39368}{2367}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.18[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.18[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.985
1 - 0.985 = 0.015
0.015 = 1.5% of BMW dealers are pricing the BMW 3 Series Coupe 335i at more than the average price ($44,520) for a Mercedes CLK350 Coupe

Step-by-step explanation:
Pick two points on the line
(0,-2) and (2,0)
We can find the slope
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (0--2)/(2-0)
= (0+2)/(2-0)
2/2
=
We know the y intercept is -2 ( where it crosses the y axis)
y = mx +b is the slope intercept form of the equation where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = 1x -2
y = x-2
Answer: [tex]y=x-2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
I explained the other problem you asked, why couldnt you apply that info to this one? Either way, Ill explain it again.
We can see the slope intercept is -2, so b = -2
To get the slope, just from visualization. Look at the y value and x value direction for which you gotta take to get to the next coords. From the y-intercept, you go up 1 and then right 1. 1/1 = 1

A complex electronic system is built with a certain number of backup components in its subsystems. One subsystem has eight identical components, each with a probability of 0.45 of failing in less than 1,000 hours. The sub system will operate if any four of the eight components are operating. Assume that the components operate independently. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)
Required:
Find the probability that the subsystem operates longer than 1000 hours.
Answer:
0.7396 = 73.96% probability that the subsystem operates longer than 1000 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each component, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they fail in less than 1000 hours, or they do not. The components operate independently. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
Eight components:
This means that [tex]n = 8[/tex]
Probability of 0.45 of failing in less than 1,000 hours.
So 1 - 0.45 = 0.55 probability of working for longer than 1000 hours, which means that [tex]p = 0.55[/tex]
Find the probability that the subsystem operates longer than 1000 hours.
We need at least four of the components operating. So
[tex]P(X \geq 4) = P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 4) = C_{8,4}.(0.55)^{4}.(0.45)^{4} = 0.2627[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{8,5}.(0.55)^{5}.(0.45)^{3} = 0.2568[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 6) = C_{8,6}.(0.55)^{6}.(0.45)^{2} = 0.1569[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 7) = C_{8,7}.(0.55)^{7}.(0.45)^{1} = 0.0548[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 8) = C_{8,8}.(0.55)^{8}.(0.45)^{0} = 0.0084[/tex]
[tex]P(X \geq 4) = P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) + P(X = 8) = 0.2627 + 0.2568 + 0.1569 + 0.0548 + 0.0084 = 0.7396[/tex]
0.7396 = 73.96% probability that the subsystem operates longer than 1000 hours.

According to a milk carton, 2% milk contains 70 % less fat than whole milk. The nutrition label on the other side of the carton states that one serving of this milk contains 2.5 grams of fat. How many grams of fat are in an
equivalent serving of whole milk?
Answer:
8.33 grams of fat
Step-by-step explanation:
One serving of the milk contains 2.5 grams of fat.
2% milk has 70% less fat than whole milk.
This means 2% milk has 30% of the fat that whole milk has.
Let W = amount of fat in whole milk
30% of the fat that whole milk has
=30% × w
=30/100×w
=0.30×w
=0.30w
How many grams of fat are in an equivalent gram of whole milk
2.5g=0.30w
w=2.5g/0.30
=8.33 grams of fat

Workplace Attire In a survey conducted by Opinion Research Corporation, 1000 adults were asked to identify "what is inappropriate in the workplace." of the 1000 subjects, 70% said that miniskirts were not appropriate in the workplace.
a. What is 70% of 1000?
b. Among the 1000 respondents, 550 said that shorts are unacceptable in the workplace. What percentage of respondents said that shorts are unacceptable in the workplace?
Answer:
700
55%
Step-by-step explanation:
70% of 1000 is equal to
{70/100)*1000
= 0.70*1000
= 700.
This, 70% of 1000 means 700 out of 1000 said that miniskirts were not appropriate in the workplace.
b. 550 of 1000 respondents said that shorts are unacceptable in the workplace. The percentage is
{550/1000)*100
= 0.55*100
= 55%
Thus 55% of 1000 respondents said that shorts are unacceptable in the workplace.
Dilate line f by a scale factor of 2 with the center of dilation at the origin to create line f. Where are points A' and B' located after dilation, and how are lines fand f related?
(A) The locations of A' and B' are A' (0,4) and B' (4,0); lines f and f are parallel.
(B) The locations of A' and B' are A' (0, 2) and B' (2, 0); lines f and f are the same line.
(c) The locations of A' and B' are A' (0, 2) and B' (4, ); lines f and f intersect at point A.
(D) The locations of A' and B' are A' (0,4) and B' (2, 0); lines f and f intersect at point B.
Answer:
Option A
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that
Scale factor=2
Center of dilation=(0,0)
Point A(0,2) and point B (2,0).
Slope of line f=[tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
Substitute the values
Slope of line f=[tex]\frac{0-2}{2-0}=-1[/tex]
Distance between A and Origin (0,0) is given by
[tex]OA=\sqrt{(0-0)^2+(0-2)^2}=2 units[/tex]
Using distance formula
[tex]\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]
OB=[tex]\sqrt{(0-2)^2+(0-0)^2}=2 units[/tex]
Length of OA'=2OA=2(2)=4 units
Length of OB'=2(OB)=2(2)=4 units
x-intercept of line f' at x=4
y-intercept of line f' at y=4
Therefore, the points A' and B' are given by
(0,4) and (4,0)
Slope of line f'=[tex]\frac{0-4}{4-0}=-1[/tex]
Slope of line f and f' are equal.Therefore, lines f and f' are parallel.
Option A is true.

The population of a town grows at a rate proportional to the population present at time t. The initial population of 500 increases by 5% in 10 years. What will be the population in 20 years
Answer:
551 people
Step-by-step explanation:
We have that for this type of situation the equation that models the population depending on the time is:
P (t) = I * e ^ (k * t)
Where I is the initial population, that is to say that for this case it would be:
P (t) = 500 * e ^ (k * t)
k is the constant of proportionality and t the time, they tell us that in 10 years it increases 5%, therefore the population would be:
500 + 500 * 0.05 = 525, therefore:
525 = 500 * e ^ (k * 10)
we solve:
525/500 = e ^ (k * 10)
ln 1.05 = k * 10
k = 0.00488
Now, to calculate how much the population is in 20 years it would be:
P (t) = 500 * e ^ (0.00488 * 20)
P (t) = 551.26
In other words, the population would be approximately 551 people
According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), up to 20% of Americans contract the influenza virus each year, and approximately 3% of all births in the United States result in birth defects each year.

(3)
a. P(A and B) = 0.06. b. P(A or B) = 0.70.(4)Not disjoint
(5) a. nearly 0.
(6)b. 0.919
Step-by-Step Explanation:
(1)Probability of a baby being born with a birth defect =3%=0.03
The probability that both babies have birth defects=0.03 X 0.03= 0.0009.
(2)The probability of contracting the influenza virus each year = 20%=0.2
Therefore, the probability of not contracting the influenza virus =1-0.2=0.8
The probability that neither baby catches the flu in a given year:
=0.8 X 0.8
=0.64
(3)
P(A)=0.1
P(B)=0.6
P(A or B)=P(A)+P(B)=0.1 + 0.6 =0.7
P(A and B)=P(A)XP(B)=0.1 X 0.6 =0.06

Suppose you have a dataset with m = 50m=50 examples and n = 200000n=200000 features for each example. You want to use multivariate linear regression to fit the parameters \thetaθ to our data. Should you prefer gradient descent or the normal equation?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider X to be the matrix whose columns are the values for our 50 examples. The normal equation gives us the values of [tex]\theta[/tex] in the following way
[tex] \theta = (X^{T}X)^{-1}X^{T}y[/tex]
The matrix [tex]X^{T}X[/tex] however, might not be invertible when [tex]m\leq n[/tex]. So we must use the pseudo inverse to solve the problem. For a big number of features, calculating the pseudoinverse might be computational expensive. So, gradient descent should be prefered.

How is the vertex related to the maximum or minimum of a parabola?
Answer:
Vertical parabolas give an important piece of information: When the parabola opens up, the vertex is the lowest point on the graph — called the minimum, or min. When the parabola opens down, the vertex is the highest point on the graph — called the maximum, or max.
Step-by-step explanation:
The y coordinate of the vertex tells you the highest or lowest point, depending on whether the parabola opens downward or upward.
For something like y = -2(x-5)^2 + 10, it opens downward and has the vertex at (5,10). The highest point is (5,10) so the largest y value or output is y = 10. This is the maximum of the function. Note the value of 'a' is a = -2 which is negative. Also note the vertex form y = a(x-h)^2 + k with vertex (h,k).
For an example like y = 7(x+2)^2 - 8 we have a = 7 so the parabola opens upward meaning we'll have a minimum this time. The lowest point is the vertex (h,k) = (-2,-8). The minimum of the function is y = -8.

The promising alternative energy sources currently under development are fuel cell technology and large-scale solar energy power. The probabilities that these two sources will be successfully developed and commercially viable in the next 10 years are 0.70 and 0.85, respectively. The successful development of these two energy sources are statistically independent. Determine the following: a. The probability that there will be energy supplied by these two alternative sources in the next 10 years. b. The probability that only one of the two alternative energy sources will be commercially viable in the next 10 years.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Denote the event of commercially availability of f_uel cell technology as F_, commercial availability of solar power technology as S
Write the probability of energy supplied by these energy sources in the next 10 years
P(energy supplied) = P(S ∪ F) -----(1)
Rewrite eqn (1)
P(energy supplied) = P(S) + P(F) - P(F) P(S) ----(2)
substitute 0.85 for P(S) and 0,7 for P(F) in eqn (2) to find the probability of energy supplied by these energy sources
P(energy supplied) = 0.85 + 0.7 - (0.7 * 0.85)
= 0.85 + 0.7 - (0.595)
= 1.55 - 0.595
= 0.955
Therefore, the probability that there will be energy supplied by these two alternative sources in the next 10 years is 0.955
B) write the probability of only one source of energy available
P(only one source of energy available) = [tex]P(\bar F S)[/tex] ∪ [tex]P( \bar S F)[/tex] ---(3)
Rewrite the equation (3)
P(only one source of energy available) =
[tex]=P(\bar F S)+P(\bar S F)\\\\=\{[1-P(F)]P(S)+[1-P(S)]P(F)\}---(4)[/tex]
[tex]=\{[1-0.7]0.85+[1-0.85]0.7\}\\\\=0.255+0.105\\\\=0.36[/tex]
Therefore,The probability that only one of the two alternative energy sources will be commercially viable in the next 10 years is 0.36
The state education commission wants to estimate the fraction of tenth grade students that have reading skills at or below the eighth grade level. Suppose a sample of 1537 tenth graders is drawn. Of the students sampled, 1184 read above the eighth grade level. Using the data, construct the 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level.
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level is (0.2087, 0.2507).
Step-by-step explanation:
In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.
[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
In which
z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
For this problem, we have that:
Suppose a sample of 1537 tenth graders is drawn. Of the students sampled, 1184 read above the eighth grade level. So 1537 - 1184 = 353 read at or below this level. Then
[tex]n = 1537, \pi = \frac{353}{1537} = 0.2297[/tex]
95% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].
The lower limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2297 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.2297*0.7703}{1537}} = 0.2087[/tex]
The upper limit of this interval is:
[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.2297 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.2297*0.7703}{1537}} = 0.2507[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval for the population proportion of tenth graders reading at or below the eighth grade level is (0.2087, 0.2507).
A polynomial is factorable, but it is not a perfect square trinomial or a
difference of two squares. Can you factor the polynomial without finding the GCF?
Answer:
So in this problem, we're told that a polynomial is fact herbal and it's not a perfect square. Try no meal or a difference of two squares. Can you factor the pie? Nomi bite or polynomial without finding the G C F. So no Jacey after is allowed. So if it's not a perfect squared, try no meal. So not a perfect square. We know it's not this, and we also know it's not a difference of two squirt if it's not any of these or if it's not either of these, but we can't find the G. C F. There are three different ways we could find the factored form. You could do it by grouping where you separating the polynomial into two parts and factor them individually before combining. You could also use the sum or a difference of cubes. This is for a cubic or a um, polynomial of third degree, and you could also use fractional or negative exponents. So even if you can't find the G c f or use these methods, there are still three ways you can factor the
