For the most recent year available, the mean annual cost to attend a private university in the United States was $50,900. Assume the distribution of annual costs follows the normal probability distribution and the standard deviation is $4,500. Ninety-five percent of all students at private universities pay less than what amount
Answer:
95% of all students at private universities pay less than $58,302.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normal Probability Distribution:
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Mean of $50,900, standard deviation of $4,500
This means that [tex]\mu = 50900, \sigma = 4500[/tex]
Ninety-five percent of all students at private universities pay less than what amount?
Pay less than the 95th percentile, and the amount is given by X when Z has a pvalue of 0.95, so X when Z = 1.645.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]1.645 = \frac{X - 50900}{4500}[/tex]
[tex]X - 50900 = 1.645*4500[/tex]
[tex]X = 58302.5[/tex]
95% of all students at private universities pay less than $58,302.5.
The owner of a restaurant is concerned about customers who ask for a water cup when placing an order but fill the cup with a drink from the beverage fountain instead of filling the cup with water. The owner randomly selected 90 people who order a water cup and found that 21 of those customers filled the cup with a soft drink.a. Construct and interpret a 95 percent confidence interval for the proportion of all customers who, having asked for a water cup when placing an order, will fill the cup with a soft drink from the beverage fountain. b. The owner estimates that each customer who asks for a water cup but fills it with a soft drink costs the restaurant $0.35. Suppose that in the month of June 2,500 customers ask for a water cup when placing an order. Use the confidence interval constructed in part (a) to give an interval estimate for the cost to the restaurant for the month of June from the customers who ask for a water cup but fill the cup with a soft drink.

Consider the expression 40+24 . Find the greatest common factor of the two numbers and use the distributive property to rewrite the expression
Hi there!
[tex]\large\boxed{8(5+3)}}[/tex]
The greatest common factor of 40 and 24 is 8.
8 goes into 40 5 times:
8 goes into 24 3 times.
We can rewrite this expression for distribution using the amount of times 8 goes into both numbers:
8(5 + 3)
Using this, we get:
8(5) + 8(3) = 40 + 24.

Step-by-step explanation:
A manufacturer orders lots of steel rods from a supplier (each lot consists of thousands of rods). Assume that the mean length of the rods in each lot is 4 meters and standard deviation is 0.04 meter. The quality manager accepts a lot if the mean length of the randomly selected sample of 64 rods from that lot is at least 4.005 meters, otherwise the lot is returned to the supplier. a) What percentage of the lots received by the manufacturer will be returned to the supplier
Answer:
84.13% of the lots received by the manufacturer will be returned to the supplier
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal Probability Distribution:
Problems of normal distributions can be solved using 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.
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.
Assume that the mean length of the rods in each lot is 4 meters and standard deviation is 0.04 meter.
This means that [tex]\mu = 4, \sigma = 0.04[/tex]
Sample of 64:
This means that [tex]n = 64, s = \frac{0.04}{\sqrt{64}} = 0.005[/tex]
a) What percentage of the lots received by the manufacturer will be returned to the supplier
The proportion is the pvalue of Z when X = 4.005. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{4.005 - 4}{0.005}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.8413
0.8413*100% = 84.13%
84.13% of the lots received by the manufacturer will be returned to the supplier

Tamar surveyed six friends, asking each how many times he or she had ridden in a helicopter. The numbers of times she recorded were 0, 0, 0, 1, 3, and 8.
What is the mean absolute deviation of the number of times?
Round to the nearest tenth, if needed.
a. 0
b. 2
c. 2.3
d. 2.5
well, to do this we first need to find the mean of all values.
we need to find the distance of each value from that mean (subtract the mean from each value, ignore minus signs)
Then find the mean of those distances.
so, after we do all of that with the given numbers, our final result would be 2.333333333..... (It goes on) we round it up to 2.3, and viola! the answer is C.
Answer: the answer is c

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Reference angle for 68° in QII = 180°-68° = 112°
Reference angle for 75° in QIV = 360°-75° = 285°
You score an 83 on the first of two exams. Write and solve an
equation to find the score x that you need on the second exam to
have a mean score of 85.
Answer: The mean is the same as the average. In order to find the mean, or average score of the two tests, you need to take the sum of the two tests, and then divide by the number of tests, which is two.
We don't know the score of the second exam. Let it = x
Then we have the following equation:
(88 + x)/2 = 93
88 + x = 2 * 93
88 + x = 186
x = 186 - 88 = 98
You need to score a 98 on the second test

During a competition, numismatist Aditi has been given Rs. 200 in Rs.1 denominations. The judge asks Aditi to allocate the Rs. 1 denominations into a number of pouches such that any amount required between Rs.1 & Rs. 200 can be given by giving out a certain number of pouches without opening them. Aditi thinks and asks the judge to give her 'x' number of pouches to keep the money, where 'x' is the minimum number of bags required to keep the total money. Can you guess the value of 'x'?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
If the bags can either be given or not, each bag can assume one of two states. In order for there to be 200 possible combinations of items in one of two states, there must be at least log2(200) = 7.64 items. The minimum number of bags is x = 8.
_____
The contents of the 8 bags will be Rs. 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 73.

A Japanese bullet train travels 558 miles per 3 hours A. What is the rate B. How far does the train travel in 1 hour WHO EVER ANSWERS I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
The rate is going to be the same as the distance travelled in 1 hour. The units will be different.
Formula
d = r * t
Givens
d = 558 miles
t = 3 hours
Problem A
r = d / t
r = 558/ 3 = 186 miles / hr
Problem B
Givens
r = 186 miles / hour
t = 1 hour
d = ?
Solution
d = 186 mi/hr * 1 hr
d = 186 miles
Note
This looks really trivial, but it's not. You have to learn to see the difference between a number and its units. It's not very often that the numbers will be the same, but if the units differ, then it is an entirely different question.

a triangle has angles that measure 50 degrees and 50 degrees what is the measure lf the third angle?
Answer:
80
Step-by-step explanation:
the combined angles of any triangle equal 180 degrees. take the known angles ( 50 and 50) and subtract their sum from 180. 180-100=80
