A pathologist has been studying the frequency of bacterial colonies within the field of a microscope using samples of throat cultures from healthy adults. Long-term history indicates that there is an average of 2.90 bacteria colonies per field. Let r be a random variable that represents the number of bacteria colonies per field. Let O represent the number of observed bacteria colonies per field for throat cultures from healthy adults. A random sample of 100 healthy adults gave the following information:

r 0 1 2 3 4 5 or more
O 11 14 30 17 22 6

The pathologist wants to use a Poisson distribution to represent the probability of r, the number of bacteria colonies per field. The Poisson distribution is given below.
P(r) = e^−λλr / r!
Here λ = 2.90 is the average number of bacteria colonies per field.

Required:
Compute P(r) for r = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 or more.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

P(0) = 0.055

P(1) = 0.16

P(2) = 0.231

P(3) = 0.224

P(4) = 0.162

P(5 or more) = 0.168

Step-by-step explanation:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.

Here λ = 2.90 is the average number of bacteria colonies per field.

This means that [tex]\mu = 2.90[/tex]

Compute P(r) for r = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 or more.

[tex]P(0) = \frac{e^{-2.9}*(2.9)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.055[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = \frac{e^{-2.9}*(2.9)^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.16[/tex]

[tex]P(2) = \frac{e^{-2.9}*(2.9)^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.231[/tex]

[tex]P(3) = \frac{e^{-2.9}*(2.9)^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.224[/tex]

[tex]P(4) = \frac{e^{-2.9}*(2.9)^{4}}{(4)!} = 0.162[/tex]

5 or more:

This is

[tex]P(X \geq 5) - 1 - P(X < 5)[/tex]

In which:

[tex]P(X < 5)  = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.055 + 0.16 + 0.231 + 0.224 + 0.162 = 0.832[/tex]

[tex]P(X \geq 5) - 1 - P(X < 5) = 1 - 0.832 = 0.168[/tex]

So

P(5 or more) = 0.168

Studying the number of hours of sleep for freshmen, sophomores, and juniors. d.) Comparing the number of hours that freshman and seniors study during a semester.

Answers

Answer:

b.) Analyzing the number of hours that freshman, sophomores, juniors, and seniors study in a semester as well as the number of hours of sleep each group gets at night.

Step-by-step explanation:

Analysis of Variance could be referred to as a form of statistical test which is used to evaluate the average or mean changes of a continous dependent variable based on the different combination of the input levels of TWO independent or predictor variables. From the options given, the option selected, the analysis is based on TWO independent, predictor variables which are hours of study in a semester and the number of sleeping hours for 3 different levels or categorical groups of students (Freshman, sophomore, Junior and Seniors) get at night.

Since, we can identify two distinct independent variables, then it is fit for analysis using a 2 - way ANOVA.

A dotplot shows that it is reasonable to assume that the population is approximately normal. Can you conclude that the mean tuition and fees for private institutions in California is greater than $35,000? Use the =α0.01 level of significance and the critical value method with t

Answers

Answer:

The pvalue of the test is of 0.0979 > 0.01, which means that we cannot conclude that the mean tuition and fees for private institutions in California is greater than $35,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Test if the mean tuition and fees for private institutions in California is greater than $35,000.

This means that at the null hypothesis we test if the fee is of $35,000 or less, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu \leq 35000[/tex]

And at the alternate hypothesis, we test if it is more than this value, that is:

[tex]H_a: \mu > 35000[/tex]

The test statistic is:

As we have the standard deviation of the sample, the t-distribution is used.

[tex]t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

35000 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 35000[/tex]

The mean annual tuition and fees in the 2013-2014 academic year for a sample of 13 private colleges in California was $38,000 with a standard deviation of $7900.

This means that [tex]n = 13, X = 38000, s = 7900[/tex]

Value of the test-statistic:

[tex]t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{38000 - 35000}{\frac{7900}{\sqrt{13}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = 1.37[/tex]

Pvalue of the test and decision:

The pvalue of the test is the probability of finding a mean above 38000, which is the pvalue of t = 1.37, with 13 - 1 = 12 degrees of freedom, using a one-tailed test.

With the help of a calculator, this pvalue is of 0.0979.

The pvalue of the test is of 0.0979 > 0.01, which means that we cannot conclude that the mean tuition and fees for private institutions in California is greater than $35,000.

What’s the area of the figure below?

Answers

Answer:

482.5 ft^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure can be regarded as a rectangle with a triangle cut out of one corner.

The base of the triangle = 25-20 = 5 in and the height = 20 - 13 = 7 in.

The required area = area of rectangle - area of triangle

= 25*20 - 1/2 * 5 * 7

= 500 - 17.5

= 482.5 ft^2

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  482.5 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure can be considered to be a 25 in by 20 in rectangle with a 5 in by 7 in triangle cut off the corner. Then the area of the figure is the area of the rectangle, less the area of the triangle.

  A = LW - 1/2bh

  = (25 in)(20 in) - 1/2(5 in)(7 in) = 500 in² -35/2 in² = 482 1/2 in²

The area of the figure is 482.5 square inches.

Find the measure of angle BAC. (The figure is not drawn to scale.)
A. 22
B. 34
C. 68
D. 136​

Answers

If angle BOC in circle is 68° then the measure of angle BAC is 34°.

Given that angle BOC in the circle is 68°.

We have to find the angle BAC.

We have that m∠BOC=arc BC ------by central angle.

we have m∠BOC=68°.

therefore arc BC=68°.

We know that the inscribed angle is half that of the arc it comprises so m∠BAC=1/2 *(arc BC)-----1

In geometry one of the theorem states states that angle at the center of a circle is twice angle at the circumference.

We have that arc BC=68°

substitute arc BC in equation 1 to get the measurement of ∠BAC.

m∠BAC=[tex]68/2[/tex]

=34°

Hence if angle BOC in circle is 68° then the measure of angle BAC is 34°.

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential equation for a decreasing amount:

The exponential equation for a decreasing amount is given by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1-r)^t[/tex]

In which A(0) is the initial rate and r is the decay rate, as a decimal.

Currently, the number of people entering a shopping mall is 109.

This means that [tex]A(0) = 109[/tex]

It is estimated that the number of people entering the shopping mall will decrease by 3% each hour.

This means that [tex]r = 0.03[/tex]

So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1-r)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 109(1-0.03)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = 109(0.97)^t[/tex]

Find the total number of people entering the shopping mall at the end of 4 hours.

This is A(4). So

[tex]A(4) = 109(0.97)^4 = 96.49[/tex]

Rounding to the nearest whole number, 96 people.

Answers

Answer:

The pvalue of the test is 0.0124 < 0.1, which means that there is sufficient evidence at the 0.1 level to support the testing firm's claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

An automobile manufacturer has given its van a 59.5 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted to test the actual MPG for this van since it is believed that the van has an incorrect manufacturer's MPG rating:

At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean is the same, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 59.5[/tex]

At the alternate hypothesis, we test that it is different, that is:

[tex]H_a: \mu \neq 59.5[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

59.5 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 59.5[/tex]

After testing 250 vans, they found a mean MPG of 59.2. Assume the population standard deviation is known to be 1.9.

This means that [tex]n = 250, X = 59.2, \sigma = 1.9[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{59.2 - 59.5}{\frac{1.9}{\sqrt{250}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -2.5[/tex]

Pvalue of the test and decision:

The pvalue of the test is the probability of finding a mean that differs from 59.5 by at least 0.3, which is P(|Z|>-2.5), which is 2 multiplied by the pvalue of Z = -2.5.

Looking at the z-table, Z = -2.5 has a pvalue of 0.0062

2*0.0062 = 0.0124

The pvalue of the test is 0.0124 < 0.1, which means that there is sufficient evidence at the 0.1 level to support the testing firm's claim.
