according to the department of public health, the average age of a new smoker is 13 years old. a researcher working for the tobacco industry wishes to test the claim that the average age is no longer 13 years old. he surveys a sample of 144 new smokers and finds they have an average age of 13.5 years with a standard deviation of 2.5 years. do the sample data support the researcher’s claim? test the relevant hypotheses at a significance level of ????????

Answer:

µT = 2 (The mean of T is 2)

σT = 1 (The standard deviation of T is 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

This involves the transformation and combination of random variables. We know that the coin flips are independent as the knowledge of one coin flip will not affect the next or another coin flip.

The question has a transformation of H by essentially multiplying it by 4 that, then turns it into T. Knowing that we can multiply the mean of 0.5 by 4 with rules of a linear transformation when multiplying each observation by a positive constant. With that, we get the mean of T to equal 2.

Since we know it is independent, we can solve for standard deviation. To do so, we have to add 0.5 squared 4 times and square root it. That will look like this: Squareroot(0.5^2+0.5^2+0.5^2+0.5^2). That will give you 1 as the standard deviation for T.

The probability that mean blood pressure less than 118 is 0.9938.

We have given that,

blood pressure are normally distributed mean of 116

i.e. μ = 116

standard deviation σ = 4.8

n = 36

and we have to find probability that their mean blood pressure will be less than 118.

The formula to find the above probability is,

P(Z=X) = (x - μ) / (σ/[tex]\sqrt{n}[/tex] )

⇒ P(Z < 118) = (118 - 116) / 4.8/[tex]\sqrt{36}[/tex]

                   = 2 / (4.8/6)

                   = 2/0.8

  P(Z < 118) = 2.5

From the z-table the value of z at 2.5 is 0.9938,

⇒ P(Z < 118) = 0.9938.

Therefore the probability that their mean blood pressure will be less than 118 is 0.09938.

The probability that the islanders will win exactly two games is 0.359.

The binomial distribution is based on the binomial theorem which can be written as (a + b)ⁿ = ⁿC₀aⁿb⁰ + ⁿC₁aⁿ⁻¹b¹ + ⁿC₂aⁿ⁻²b²+ ....+ ⁿCₙa₀bⁿ.

In order to use in the probability, there should be events independent of each other and the sum of there probabilities is 1.

Given that,

The probability of winning is 4/7.

Then the probability to lose is 1 - 4/7 = 3/7.

If islanders win exactly two games out of four, it implies that they will lose 2 as well.

Now, the probability of winning exactly two games can be found using binomial distribution as given below,

⁴C₂(4/7)²(3/7)²

= 6 × 16/49 × 9/49

Answer:

49 bracelets

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of bracelets that can be made be x.

First, let us convert 3.5 hours into minutes.

3.5 * 60 = 210 minutes

Accordingly,

Time (min)            Number of bracelets

30                      ⇒            7

210                    ⇒           x

Now, we can make an expression like this using cross multiplication.

30x = 7 × 210

30x = 1470

Divide both sides by 30.

x = 49

The equation for given Parallel & Perpendicular Lines points and slope and given below.

what is parallel and perpendicular lines?

In a plane, parallel lines are those whose distances between them are constant. Parallel lines do not cross. Lines that cross at a right angle of 90 degrees are said to be perpendicular.  

The equation of a line in slope-intercept form y = mx + c

1. substitute x = 0, y = 3 and m = -2 in equation

3 = -2*0 + c

c = 3, substitute in equation

Then y = -2x + 3

2. substitute x = -3 , y = - 5 and m = -( 3/5 ) in equation

-5 =  -( 3/5 )*(-3 ) + c

c = - 34/5 , substitute in equation

Then  5y = -3x - 34

3. substitute x = -8 , y = 6 and m = -(1/4) in equation

6 =  -(1/4)*(-8 )+ c

c = 8, substitute in equation

Then y = -2x + 8

The equation of line passing through two points is m = ( y2 - y1) / ( x2 - x1)

4. The given points is ( 1, 3) and  ( -3, -5) and substitute in above equation.

Then m = 2

substitute m = 2 and ( 1, 3) in equation y = mx + c

Then  c = 1

substitute m = 2 and c = 1 in equation of y = mx + c

Then the equation is y = 2x + 1

5. The given points is ( 1, 4) and  ( 6, -1 ) and substitute in above equation.

Then m = - (5/4)

substitute m = - (5/4) and ( 1, 4) in equation y = mx + c

Then  c = 21/4

substitute  m = - (5/4) and c = 21/4 in equation of y = mx + c

Then the equation is  4y = -5x + 21

6. The given points is ( -12,14)  and  ( 6, -1 ) and substitute in above equation.

Then m = - (5/6)

substitute m = - (5/6) and( -12,14) in equation y = mx + c

Error is the difference between an actual value and an estimate, or approximate, representation of that value in applied mathematics. The discrepancy between the population's average and the average of a sample taken from that population is a frequent example in statistics. The discrepancy between an irrational number's true value and the values of rational expressions like 22/7, 355/113, 3.14, or 3.14159 serves as an example of round-off error in numerical analysis. A truncation error happens when an infinite series is ignored for all but a small number of terms. For instance, the sum of the infinite series can be used to express the exponential function ex.

We need two easy-to-read points on grid intersections.

Look at the point on the y-axis. It is (0, 3).

Now go up to the right until you find the next easy-to-read point.

It is (3, 4) which is on a grid intersection.

gradient = run/rise

rise = distance in y (vertical distance)

run = distance in x (horizontal distance)

We start at (0, 3) and go to (4, 4) by going only vertically and horizontally.

From (0, 3), go 1 unit up. That is a rise of 1.

Then go 3 units right. That is a run of 3.

The amount of time it would take for 20% of the water to leak from a full vase is equal to 24.128 minutes.

Mathematically, the volume of a cone can be calculated by using this formula:

V = 1/3 × πr²h

Where:

From the diagram of the cone (see attachment), we have the following parameters:

Diameter of cone = 4.8 in.

Height of cone = 10 in.

Radius of cone = diameter/2 = 4.8/2 = 2.4 in.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

Volume of cone, V = 1/3 × 3.142(2.4² × 10)

Volume of cone, V = 60.32 in³.

For the volume of water that has leaked, we have:

Volume of water leaked = 20/100 × 60.31

Volume of water leaked = 12.062 in³.

The unit rate for steve is also shown in the equation y = 1.5x. This equation is the filled in form of y = mx + b where m is equivalent to the slope. Therefore 1.5 is the slope meaning the unit rate is 1.5 miles per hour.

The unit rate for Kaliel is found using the information that he walks 10 miles in two hours. To find how much he goes in 1 hour divide by two getting you 5 miles per hour.
