Answer:
[tex]P(141.8<X<218)=P(\frac{141.8-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{218-\mu}{\sigma})=P(\frac{141.8-173.6}{49.8}<Z<\frac{218-173.6}{49.8})=P(-0.639<z<0.892)[/tex]
And we can find this probability with this difference and using the normal standard table:
[tex]P(-0.639<z<0.892)=P(z<0.892)-P(z<-0.639)=0.814-0.261= 0.553[/tex]
Then the answer would be approximately 55.3% of women between the specifications. And that represent more than the half of women
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X the random variable that represent the weights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:
[tex]X \sim N(173.6,49.8)[/tex]
Where [tex]\mu=173.6[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=49.8[/tex]
We are interested on this probability
[tex]P(141.8<X<2188)[/tex]
And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:
[tex]P(141.8<X<218)=P(\frac{141.8-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{218-\mu}{\sigma})=P(\frac{141.8-173.6}{49.8}<Z<\frac{218-173.6}{49.8})=P(-0.639<z<0.892)[/tex]
And we can find this probability with this difference and using the normal standard table:
[tex]P(-0.639<z<0.892)=P(z<0.892)-P(z<-0.639)=0.814-0.261= 0.553[/tex]
Then the answer would be approximately 55.3% of women between the specifications. And that represent more than the half of women
What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x+7y=5?
Answer:
7/2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Well first we need to put,
2x + 7y = 5,
into slope intercept
-2x
7y = -2x + 5
Divide y to all numbers
y = -2/7x + 5/7
So the slope for the given line is -2/7,
the slope of the line that is perpendicular to it is its reciprocal.
Meaning the slope of the perpendicular line is 7/2.
Thus,
the slope of the perpendicular line is 7/2x.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
The slope of the perpendicular line is 7/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+7y=5
Solve for y to find the slope
2x-2x+7y=5-2x
7y = -2x+5
Divide by 7
7y/7 = -2/7 x +5/7
y = -2/7x + 5/7
The slope is -2/7
The slope of perpendicular lines multiply to -1
m * -2/7 = -1
Multiply each side by -7/2
m * -2/7 *-7/2 = -1 * -7/2
m = 7/2
The slope of the perpendicular line is 7/2
An athletics coach states that the distribution of player run times (in seconds) for a 100-meter dash is normally distributed with a mean equal to 13.00 and a standard deviation equal to 0.2 seconds. What percentage of players on the team run the 100-meter dash in 13.36 seconds or faster
Answer:
96.41% of players on the team run the 100-meter dash in 13.36 seconds or faster
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 = 13, \sigma = 0.2[/tex]
What percentage of players on the team run the 100-meter dash in 13.36 seconds or faster
We have to find the pvalue of Z when X = 13.36.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{13.36 - 13}{0.2}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.8[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.8[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9641
96.41% of players on the team run the 100-meter dash in 13.36 seconds or faster

Draw the scatter plot of the data and, by visually observing the graph, determine if there is a linear relationship between the number of years of prior working experience in the same ï¬eld and the starting salary at this company.
Answer:
Solved below.
Step-by-step explanation:
The data is provided for the starting salary (in $1,000) at some company and years of prior working experience in the same field for randomly selected 10 employees.
(a)
The formula to compute the correlation coefficient is:
[tex]r=~\frac{n\cdot\sum{XY} - \sum{X}\cdot\sum{Y}} {\sqrt{\left[n \sum{X^2}-\left(\sum{X}\right)^2\right] \cdot \left[n \sum{Y^2}-\left(\sum{Y}\right)^2\right]}} \\[/tex]
The required values are computed in the Excel sheet below.
[tex]\begin{aligned}r~&=~\frac{n\cdot\sum{XY} - \sum{X}\cdot\sum{Y}} {\sqrt{\left[n \sum{X^2}-\left(\sum{X}\right)^2\right] \cdot \left[n \sum{Y^2}-\left(\sum{Y}\right)^2\right]}} \\r~&=~\frac{ 10 \cdot 7252 - 97 \cdot 661 } {\sqrt{\left[ 10 \cdot 1335 - 97^2 \right] \cdot \left[ 10 \cdot 45537 - 661^2 \right] }} \approx 0.9855\end{aligned}[/tex]
Thus, the sample correlation coefficient r is 0.9855.
(b)
The slope of the regression line is:
[tex]b_{1} &= \frac{ n \cdot \sum{XY} - \sum{X} \cdot \sum{Y}}{n \cdot \sum{X^2} - \left(\sum{X}\right)^2} \\\\= \frac{ 10 \cdot 7252 - 97 \cdot 661 }{ 10 \cdot 1335 - \left( 97 \right)^2} \\\\\approx 2.132[/tex]
Thus, the slope of the regression line is 2.132.
(c)
The y-intercept of the line is:
[tex]b_{0} &= \frac{\sum{Y} \cdot \sum{X^2} - \sum{X} \cdot \sum{XY} }{n \cdot \sum{X^2} - \left(\sum{X}\right)^2} \\\\= \frac{ 661 \cdot 1335 - 97 \cdot 7252}{ 10 \cdot 1335 - 97^2} \\\\\approx 45.418[/tex]
Thus, the y-intercept of the line is 45.418.
(d)
The equation of the sample regression line is:
[tex]y=45.418+2.132x[/tex]
(e)
Compute the predicted starting salary for a person who spent 15 years working in the same field as follows:
[tex]y=45.418+2.132x\\\\=45.418+(2.132\times15)\\\\=45.418+31.98\\\\=77.398\\\\\approx 77.4[/tex]
Thus, the predicted starting salary for a person who spent 15 years working in the same field is $77.4 K.

Answer:
-2x + y = -1.
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the line = rise / run
= (11-9) / (6-5) = 2.
The point-slope form of the line is
y - y1 = 2(x - x1) where (x1, y1) is a point on the line so we have:
y - 11 = 2(x - 6) ( using the point (6, 11)
y = 2x - 12 + 11
y = 2x - 1
Convert to standard form:
-2x + y = -1.

Answer:
She makes conclusion about a population that is not well represented by the sample.
Step-by-step explanation:
The conclusion she is making is about a population that is not well represented by her sample: the population is the homeowners in the nation, but the sample is made of homeowners or only her state.
The population about which she can make conclusions with this sample is the homeowners of her state, given that the sampling is done right.

Choose the correct answer below. A. It represents the additional cost to produce one more item after making 250 items. B. It represents the additional cost to produce one item after the fixed costs have been paid. C. It represents the average cost per item to produce 250 items. D. It represents the average cost of producing 251 items.
Answer:
(a)$29.95
(b)A
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost, in dollars, of producing x cellphone cases is given by:
[tex]C(x)=-0.05 x^2+55 x.[/tex]
We are required to evaluate: [tex]\dfrac{C(251)-C(250)}{251-250}[/tex]
[tex]C(251)=-0.05(251)^2+55(251)=10654.95\\C(250)=-0.05(250)^2+55(250)=10625\\\text{Therefore:}\\\\\dfrac{10654.95-10625}{251-250}=29.95[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{C(251)-C(250)}{251-250}=\$29.95[/tex]
The value calculated above represents the additional cost to produce one more item after making 250 items.

Find the 61st term of the following arithmetic sequence.
15, 24, 33, 42,
Answer:
The answer is
555Step-by-step explanation:
For an nth term in an arithmetic sequence
[tex]U(n) = a + (n - 1)d[/tex]
where n is the number of terms
a is the first term
d is the common difference
From the question
a = 15
d = 24 - 15 = 9
n = 61
So the 61st term of the arithmetic sequence is
U(61) = 15 + (61-1)9
= 15 + 9(60)
= 15 + 540
= 555
Hope this helps you.

The average weight of a package of rolled oats is supposed to be at least 18 ounces. A sample of 18 packages shows a mean of 17.78 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.41 ounces. At the 5% level of significance, is the true mean smaller than the specification?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The average weight of a package of rolled oats is supposed to be at least 18 ounces
Null hypothesis: u >= 18
Alternative: u < 18
Using the t-test formula, we have
t = x-u/ (sd/√n)
Where x is 17.78, u = 18, sd = 0.41 and n = 18
t = 17.78-18 / (0.41/√18)
t = -0.22 / (0.41/4.2426)
t = -0.22/ 0.0966
t = -2.277
Since, this is a left tailed test, at a significance level of 0.05, the p value is 0.01139. Since the p value is less than 0.05, we will reject the null hypothesis and conclusion that the true mean smaller than the actual specification.
In the figure, AB =
Inchesand AC=
inches.
Answer:
[tex]\displaystyle AB \approx 8.39 \text{ inches} \text{ and } AC \approx 13.05 \text{ inches}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that we are given the measure of ∠C and the length of side BC.
To find AB, we can use the tangent ratio. Recall that:
[tex]\displaystyle \tan\theta = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}}[/tex]
Substitute in appropriate values:
[tex]\displaystyle \tan 40^\circ = \frac{AB}{BC} = \frac{AB}{10}[/tex]
Solve for AB:
[tex]\displaystyle AB = 10\tan 40^\circ \approx 8.39\text{ inches}[/tex]
For AC, we can use cosine ratio since we have an adjacent and need to find the hypotenuse. Recall that:
[tex]\displaystyle \cos \theta = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}}[/tex]
Substitute in appropriate values:
[tex]\displaystyle \cos 40^\circ = \frac{BC}{AC} = \frac{10}{AC}[/tex]
Solve for AC:
[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} \frac{1}{\cos 40^\circ} & = \frac{AC}{10} \\ \\ AC & = 10\cos 40^\circ \approx 13.05\text{ inches} \end{aligned}[/tex]
In conclusion, AB is about 8.39 inches and AC is about 13.03 inches.

[tex]\displaystyle\sin A = \frac{a}{c} \cdot \sin{C} = \frac{103}{159} \times \left(\sin{104^{\circ}}\right) \approx 0.628556[/tex].
Therefore:
[tex]\angle A = \displaystyle\arcsin (\sin A) \approx \arcsin(0.628556) \approx 38.9^\circ[/tex].
Angle BThe three internal angles of a triangle should add up to [tex]180^\circ[/tex]. In other words:
[tex]\angle A + \angle B + \angle C = 180^\circ[/tex].
The measures of both [tex]\angle A[/tex] and [tex]\angle C[/tex] are now available. Therefore:
[tex]\angle B = 180^\circ - \angle A - \angle C \approx 37.1^\circ[/tex].
Side bApply the law of sines (again) to find the length of side [tex]b[/tex]:
[tex]\displaystyle\frac{b}{c} = \frac{\sin \angle B}{\sin \angle C}[/tex].
[tex]\displaystyle b = c \cdot \left(\frac{\sin \angle B}{\sin \angle C}\right) \approx 159\times \frac{\sin \left(37.1^\circ\right)}{\sin\left(104^\circ\right)} \approx 98.8[/tex].

The weight of a chocolate bar is 4.4 ounces, but can vary. Let W be a random variable that represents the weight of a chocolate bar. The probability density function of Wis given below. If the shaded portion of the graph of the continuous probability density function below is 0.42739, what is the probability that a chocolate bar is at least 4 ounces, but no more than 7 ounces?
Answer:
Ans) 42.7%
Step-by-step explanation:
For a continuous probability distribution, a curve known as probability density function contains information about these probabilities.
in the given range -
The probability that a continuous random variable = equal to the area under the probability density function curve
The probability that the value of a random variable is equal to 'something' is 1.
As per the diagram,
Weight of chocolate bar between 4 ounces and 7 ounces is highlighted in the blue part. That area is said to be 0.42739 and the total area under the curve is 1.
Hence required probability
=0.42739/1=0.42739
Ans) 42.7%
