Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) The fraction of the calls last between 4.50 and 5.30 minutes is 0.3729.

(b) The fraction of the calls last more than 5.30 minutes is 0.1271.

(c) The fraction of the calls last between 5.30 and 6.00 minutes is 0.1109.

(d) The fraction of the calls last between 4.00 and 6.00 minutes is 0.745.

(e) The time is 5.65 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the mean length of time per call was 4.5 minutes and the standard deviation was 0.70 minutes.

Let X = the length of the calls, in minutes.

So, X ~ Normal([tex]\mu=4.5,\sigma^{2} =0.70^{2}[/tex])

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

                           Z  =  [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean time = 4.5 minutes

           [tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = 0.7 minutes

(a) The fraction of the calls last between 4.50 and 5.30 minutes is given by = P(4.50 min < X < 5.30 min) = P(X < 5.30 min) - P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 4.50 min)

    P(X < 5.30 min) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{5.30-4.5}{0.7}[/tex] ) = P(Z < 1.14) = 0.8729

    P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 4.50 min) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] [tex]\frac{4.5-4.5}{0.7}[/tex] ) = P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 0) = 0.50

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.14 and x = 0 in the z table which has an area of 0.8729 and 0.50 respectively.

Therefore, P(4.50 min < X < 5.30 min) = 0.8729 - 0.50 = 0.3729.

(b) The fraction of the calls last more than 5.30 minutes is given by = P(X > 5.30 minutes)

    P(X > 5.30 min) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] > [tex]\frac{5.30-4.5}{0.7}[/tex] ) = P(Z > 1.14) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 1.14)

                                                              = 1 - 0.8729 = 0.1271

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.14 in the z table which has an area of 0.8729.

(c) The fraction of the calls last between 5.30 and 6.00 minutes is given by = P(5.30 min < X < 6.00 min) = P(X < 6.00 min) - P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 5.30 min)

    P(X < 6.00 min) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{6-4.5}{0.7}[/tex] ) = P(Z < 2.14) = 0.9838

    P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 5.30 min) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] [tex]\frac{5.30-4.5}{0.7}[/tex] ) = P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 1.14) = 0.8729

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2.14 and x = 1.14 in the z table which has an area of 0.9838 and 0.8729 respectively.

Therefore, P(4.50 min < X < 5.30 min) = 0.9838 - 0.8729 = 0.1109.

(d) The fraction of the calls last between 4.00 and 6.00 minutes is given by = P(4.00 min < X < 6.00 min) = P(X < 6.00 min) - P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 4.00 min)

    P(X < 6.00 min) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{6-4.5}{0.7}[/tex] ) = P(Z < 2.14) = 0.9838

    P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 4.00 min) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] [tex]\frac{4.0-4.5}{0.7}[/tex] ) = P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] -0.71) = 1 - P(Z < 0.71)

                                                              = 1 - 0.7612 = 0.2388

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2.14 and x = 0.71 in the z table which has an area of 0.9838 and 0.7612 respectively.

Therefore, P(4.50 min < X < 5.30 min) = 0.9838 - 0.2388 = 0.745.

(e) We have to find the time that represents the length of the longest (in duration) 5 percent of the calls, that means;

            P(X > x) = 0.05            {where x is the required time}

            P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] > [tex]\frac{x-4.5}{0.7}[/tex] ) = 0.05

            P(Z > [tex]\frac{x-4.5}{0.7}[/tex] ) = 0.05

Now, in the z table the critical value of x which represents the top 5% of the area is given as 1.645, that is;

                      [tex]\frac{x-4.5}{0.7}=1.645[/tex]

                      [tex]{x-4.5}{}=1.645 \times 0.7[/tex]

                       x = 4.5 + 1.15 = 5.65 minutes.

SO, the time is 5.65 minutes.

If a tank holds 4500 gallons of water, which drains from the bottom of the tank in 50 minutes, then Toricelli's Law gives the volume V of water remaining in the tank after t minutes as V = 4500 (1 − 1 /50 t )^2. 0≤ t ≤ 50. At what time is the water flowing out the fastest?

Answers

Answer:

t = 0

Before it starts rushing that's when it will be fastest

Step-by-step explanation:

For the water ib the tank to flow very fast it means that there is a big volume of water present.

And for volume of water to be present that much it means that the water must

have not leaked much or at all.

And for that it signifies large volume of water.

If we do the calculation we'd see that time will be actually equal to zero for the pressure and the volume of the water to be biggest.

V = 4500 (1 − 1 /50 t )^2

V = 4500

4500 = 4500(1- 1/50t)²

1 = 1- 1/50t

0 = -1/50t

t = 0

A company makes wax candles shaped like rectangular prisms. Each candle is 7cm long, 2cm wide, and 10cm tall. If they used 5740cm^3 of wax, how many candles did they make?

The computer in a police car records the distance the car travels in both miles and kilometers. (1 mile is approximately equal to 1.6 km). Think about the travel data from one police car for a year. If we calculate the standard deviation of the distances in miles and also in kilometers, which of the following statements is true?
1. The standard deviation of the distances in miles is larger.
2. The standard deviation of the distances in kilometers is larger.
3. The standard deviations are the same.

Answers

Answer:

2. The standard deviation of the distances in kilometers is larger.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the distance of car travel in miles is x

And, the  distance of car travel in kilometers is y

Given that

1 mile = 1.6 km

That means

y = 1.6x

Therefore

The standard deviation of y =  1.6 × (standard deviation of x)

The above equation represents

The standard deviation of y > standard deviation of x

hence, the correct option is 2.

A sample of 26 offshore oil workers took part in a simulated escape exercise, and their escape time (unit: second) were observed. The sample mean and sample standard deviation are 370.69 and 24.36, respectively. Suppose the investigators had believed a priori that true average escape time would be at most 6 minutes. Does the data contradict this prior belief

Answers

Answer:

[tex]t=\frac{370.69-360}{\frac{24.36}{\sqrt{26}}}=2.238[/tex]  

The degrees of freedom are given by:

[tex] df = n-1= 26-1=25[/tex]

And the p value would be:

[tex]p_v =P(t_{25}>2.238)=0.0172[/tex]  

If we use a 5% of significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly higher than 360 second or 6 minutes. We need to be careful since if we use a significance level of 1% the result change

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

[tex]\bar X=370.69[/tex] represent the sample mean

[tex]s=24.36[/tex] represent the sample standard deviation

[tex]n=26[/tex] sample size  

[tex]\mu_o =6*60 =360 s[/tex] represent the value to verify

z would represent the statistic

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

Hypothesis to test

We want to check if the true mean is at most 360 seconds, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]\mu \leq 360[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]\mu > 360[/tex]  

The statistic for this case would be given by:

[tex]t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex] (1)  

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

[tex]t=\frac{370.69-360}{\frac{24.36}{\sqrt{26}}}=2.238[/tex]  

The degrees of freedom are given by:

[tex] df = n-1= 26-1=25[/tex]

And the p value would be:

[tex]p_v =P(t_{25}>2.238)=0.0172[/tex]  

If we use a 5% of significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly higher than 360 second or 6 minutes. We need to be careful since if we use a significance level of 1% the result change

A game popular in Nevada gambling casinos is Keno, which is played as follows: Twenty numbers are selected at random by the casino from the set of numbers 1 through 80. A player can select from 1 to 15 numbers; a win occurs if some fraction of the player’s chosen subset matches any of the 20 numbers drawn by the house. The payoff is a function of the number of elements in the player’s selection and the number of matches. For instance, if the player selects only 1 number, then he or she wins if this number is among the set of 20, and the payoff is $2.20 won for every dollar bet. (As the player’s probability of winning in this case is , it is clear that the "fair" payoff should be $3 won for every $1 bet). When the player selects 2 numbers, a payoff (of odds) of $12 won for every $1 bet is made when both numbers are among the 20.A) What would be the fair payoff in this case? Let P, k denote the probability that exactly k of the n numbers chosen by the player are among the 20 selected by the house.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Twenty numbers are selected at random by the casino from the set of numbers 1 through 80

A player can select from 1 to 15 numbers; a win occurs if some fraction of the player’s chosen subset matches any of the 20 numbers drawn by the house

Let assume X to represent the numbers of player chooses which are in the Casino-selected-set of 20.

Let assume the random variable X has a hypergeometric distribution with parameters  N= 80 and m =20.

Then, the probability mass function of a hypergeometric distribution can be defined as:

[tex]P(X=k)=\dfrac{(^m_k)(^{N-m}_{n-k})}{(^N_n)}, k =1,2,3 ... n[/tex]

Now; the probability that i out of  n numbers chosen by the player among 20  can be expressed as:

[tex]P(X=k)=\dfrac{(^{20}_k)(^{60}_{n-k})}{(^{80}_n)}, k =1,2,3 ... n[/tex]

Also; given that ; When the player selects 2 numbers, a payoff (of odds) of $12 won for every $1 bet is made when both numbers are among the 20

So; n= 2; k= 2

Then :

Probability P ( Both number in the set 20)  [tex]=\dfrac{(^{20}_2)(^{60}_{2-2})}{(^{80}_2)}[/tex]

Probability P ( Both number in the set 20) [tex]= \dfrac{20*19}{80*79}[/tex]

Probability P ( Both number in the set 20) [tex]=\dfrac{19}{316}[/tex]

Probability P ( Both number in the set 20) [tex]=\dfrac{1}{16.63}[/tex]

Thus; the payoff odd for [tex]=\dfrac{1}{16.63}[/tex] is 16.63:1 ,as such fair payoff in this case is $16.63

Again;

Let assume X to represent the numbers of player chooses which are in the Casino-selected-set of 20.

Let assume the random variable X has a hypergeometric distribution with parameters  N= 80 and m =20.

The probability mass function of the hypergeometric distribution can be defined as :

[tex]P(X=k)=\dfrac{(^m_k)(^{N-m}_{n-k})}{(^N_n)}, k =1,2,3 ... n[/tex]

Now; the probability that i out of  n numbers chosen by the player among 20  can be expressed as:

[tex]P(n,k)=\dfrac{(^{20}_k)(^{60}_{n-k})}{(^{80}_n)}, k =1,2,3 ... n[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

The answer is given below

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Find the possible ones place digit in the square root of the following

a) 2039184

The number 2039184 ends with 4, therefore the square root of the number can either end in 2 or 8

2² = 4, √4 = 2

8² = 64, √64 = 8

b) 10,004,569

The number 10,004,569 ends with 9, therefore the square root is the number will end in 3

3² = 9, √9 = 3

2) How many natural numbers lie between the squares of 41 and 42

42² = 1764 and 41² = 1681

Therefore the numbers that lie between 1764 and 1681 = (1764 - 1681) - 1 = 83 - 1 = 82

3) What will be the value of ‘ x’ in Pythagorean triplet (41, 9, x)

Pythagorean consist of three positive numbers a, b, c such that a² + b² = c². Therefore: x² + 9² = 41²

x² = 41² - 9² = 1681 - 81

x² = 1600

x = √1600 = 40

4) Check whether 15028 is a perfect square

15028 = 2 × 2 × 13 × 17 × 17

15028 = 2² × 13 × 17²

It is not a perfect square. If it is divided by 13 it becomes a perfect square, that is:

15028/13 = 2² × 17²

15028/13 = (2 × 17)² = 34²

34² = 15028/13

5) A gardener has 5190 plants. He wants to plant in such a way that the number of rows and columns remains the same.

let the number if rows be x. Since the rows and columns are the same, the number of columns = x.

x² = 5190

x = √5190 = 72² + 6.

Therefore at least six plant would be left out

Use the sample data and confidence level given below to complete parts​ (a) through​ (d). A research institute poll asked respondents if they felt vulnerable to identity theft. In the​ poll, n equals 1036 and x equals 583 who said​ "yes." Use a 90 % confidence level.

Required:
a. Find the best point estimate of the population proportion p.
b. Identify the value of the margin of error E =_______
c. Construct the confidence interval.
d. Write a statement that correctly interprets the confidence interval.

1. One has 99​% confidence that the sample proportion is equal to the population proportion.
2. There is a 99​% chance that the true value of the population proportion will fall between the lower bound and the upper bound.
3. One has 99​% confidence that the interval from the lower bound to the upper bound actually does contain the true value of the population proportion.

Answers

Answer:

a. p=0.562

b. E = 0.0253

c. The 90% confidence interval for the population proportion is (0.537, 0.587).

d. We have 90% confidence that the interval (0.537, 0.587) contains the true value of the population proportion.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate a 90% confidence interval for the proportion.

The sample proportion is p=0.562.

[tex]p=X/n=583/1038=0.562[/tex]

The standard error of the proportion is:

[tex]\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.562*0.438}{1038}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.000237}=0.0154[/tex]

The critical z-value for a 90% confidence interval is z=1.645.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

[tex]MOE=z\cdot \sigma_p=1.645 \cdot 0.0154=0.0253[/tex]

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

[tex]LL=p-z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.562-0.0253=0.537\\\\UL=p+z \cdot \sigma_p = 0.562+0.0253=0.587[/tex]

The 90% confidence interval for the population proportion is (0.537, 0.587).

We have 90% confidence that the interval contains the true value of the population proportion.

Identify an equation in point-slope form for the perpendicular to y= -1/2x+11 that passes through (4, -8). A. y - 4 = 2(x + 8) B. y - 8 = 1/2(x+4 C. y + 8 = 2(x - 4) D. y + 8 = 1/2(x - 4)

Answers

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular ⇒ So the slope will be the negative reciprocal to this slope

Slope = m = 2

Point = (x,y) = (4,-8)

So, x = 4, y = -8

Putting in the slope-intercept form

[tex]y = mx+b[/tex]

-8 = (2)(4) + b

b = -8-8

b = -16

Now we'll put it in the slope-intercept form

y = 2x-16

=> y = 2x-8-8

=> y+8 = 2(x-4)

Identify at least one potential source of bias in the claim below. Explain why the bias would or would not affect a​ reader's view of the claim. Based on a research center survey of​ 35,000 American​ adults, the percentages of​ four-year college degree holders among​ Hindus, atheists,​ Muslims, Catholics, and all American adults are​ 77%, 43%,​ 39%, 27%, and​ 26%, respectively.

Answers

Participation bias may be present in the claim below.

Bias, in statistics, means a systematic error or deviation in the estimation or inference process that continuously skews the conclusions in a particular direction. It represents a disturbance between the expected value of an estimator or statistic and the true value of the population parameter being estimated.

There is clearly a bias because the total of the percentages, i.e., 77 + 43 + 39 + 27 + 26 equals 212 which is a totally wrong way to represent data. The claims don't resemble correct information and hence, are biased. The bias would affect a reader's view of the claim because the percentages do not add up to 100[tex]\%[/tex].

Hence, it is concluded that the participation bias is present here.

To study the effect of neighborhood on academic performance, 1000 families were given federal housing vouchers to move out of their low-income neighborhoods. No improvement in the academic performance of the children in the families was found one year after the move.Requried:a. What are the explanatory and response variables?b. What are the subjects, factor(s), and treatment?c. What does no significant difference mean in describing the outcome of this study?d. Explain clearly why the lack of improvement in academic performance after one year does not necessarily mean that neighborhood does not affect academic performance.e. In particular, identify some lurking variables whose effect on academic performance may be confounded with the effect of the neighborhood

Answers

Answer:

Check below for the answers and explanations to the questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The explanatory variable is "the neighborhood" because it is the one that can be controlled/varied by the experimenter and also determines the outcome of the experiment.

The response variable is the "academic performance of the children" since it is the outcome of the experiment.

b) The subjects of the study are the children of the 1000 families that were given federal housing vouchers to relocate.

The factors of the study are:

1. the low income neighborhood

2. the federal housing estate

Treatment is the combination of various levels of the factor. In this case, it is the neighborhood of the families.

c) No significant difference means that the mean of the academic performance of the children while living the low-income neighborhood equals the mean of their academic performance while living in the federal housing estate. Which means that the null hypothesis is accepted.

d) The period of evaluation after relocation is very small compared to the time that has been spent in the low-income neighborhood. The observation has to take a longer time to discover the effect of the new neighbourhood on the academic performance of the children. Therefore the lack of improvement in academic performance after one year does not necessarily mean that neighborhood does not have effect on academic performance.

e) some other variables that are not considered in this study are:

The average Intelligence Quotient of the children

The parental training

The schools attended by the children

Average number of hours spent on study

Given: m∠AOB=50°, m∠FOE=70°. Find: m∠AOC, m∠BOD, m∠COE and m∠COD.

Answers

Answer:

m∠AOC= 120°

, m∠BOD = 130°

m∠COE = 110°

m∠COD.= 60°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's note that

AOF = COD= 60°

BOC = FOE= 70°

AOB = DOE= 50°

Given: m∠AOB=50°, m∠FOE=70°. m∠AOC

, m∠BOD,

m∠COE

m∠COD. = AOF = (360-(2(70)+2(50)))/2

AOF = (360-240)/2

AOF = 120/2

AOF = 60°= COD

COE = COD+DOE= 60+50= 110°

BOD = BOC + COD = 70+60= 130°

AOC = AOB + BOC = 50+70 = 120°

A stone is dropped into a lake, creating a circular ripple that travels outward at a speed of 60 cmys. Find the rate at which the area within the circle is increasing after (a) 1 s, (b) 3 s, and (c) 5 s. What can you conclude?

Answers

Answer:

a) [tex]t = 1\,s[/tex], [tex]\dot A \approx 22619.467\,\frac{cm^{2}}{s}[/tex], b) [tex]t = 3\,s[/tex], [tex]\dot A \approx 67858.401\,\frac{cm^{2}}{s}[/tex], c) [tex]t = 5\,s[/tex], [tex]\dot A \approx 113097.336\,\frac{cm^{2}}{s}[/tex]. The rate at which the area within the circle is increasing linearly inasmuch as time passes by.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is described by the following formula:

[tex]A = \pi \cdot r^{2}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]A[/tex] - Area, measured in square centimeters.

[tex]r[/tex] - Radius, measured in centimeters.

Since circular ripple is travelling outward at constant speed, radius can be described by the following equation of motion:

[tex]r (t) = \dot r \cdot t[/tex]

Where:

[tex]\dot r[/tex] - Speed of the circular ripple, measured in centimeters per second.

[tex]t[/tex] - Time, measured in seconds.

The rate of change of the circle is determined by deriving the equation of area and replacing radius with the function in terms of the speed of the circular ripple and time. That is to say:

[tex]\dot A = 2\cdot \pi \cdot r \cdot \dot r[/tex]

[tex]\dot A = 2 \cdot \pi \cdot \dot r^{2}\cdot t[/tex]

Where:

[tex]\dot A[/tex] - Rate of change of the circular area, measured in square centimeters per second.

[tex]\dot r[/tex] - Speed of the circular ripple, measured in centimeters per second.

[tex]t[/tex] - Time, measured in seconds.

If [tex]\dot r = 60\,\frac{cm}{s}[/tex], then:

a) [tex]t = 1\,s[/tex]

[tex]\dot A = 2\cdot \pi \cdot \left(60\,\frac{cm}{s} \right)^{2}\cdot (1\,s)[/tex]

[tex]\dot A \approx 22619.467\,\frac{cm^{2}}{s}[/tex]

b) [tex]t = 3\,s[/tex]

[tex]\dot A = 2\cdot \pi \cdot \left(60\,\frac{cm}{s} \right)^{2}\cdot (3\,s)[/tex]

[tex]\dot A \approx 67858.401\,\frac{cm^{2}}{s}[/tex]

c) [tex]t = 5\,s[/tex]

[tex]\dot A = 2\cdot \pi \cdot \left(60\,\frac{cm}{s} \right)^{2}\cdot (5\,s)[/tex]

[tex]\dot A \approx 113097.336\,\frac{cm^{2}}{s}[/tex]

The rate at which the area within the circle is increasing linearly inasmuch as time passes by.
