Cars enter a car wash at a mean rate of 4 cars per half an hour. What is the probability that, in any hour, exactly 5 cars will enter the car wash? Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability that, in any hour, exactly 5 cars will enter the car wash is P(x=5)=0.0920.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be modeled as a Poisson random variable.

The mean rate is the parameter of the Poisson distribution:

[tex]\lambda=4\;\text{cars/half an hour}=8\;\text{cars/hour}[/tex]

The probability that exactly k cars will enter the car wash can be calculated as:

[tex]P(x=k)=8^{k} \cdot e^{-8}/k![/tex]

Then, the probability that exactly 5 cars will enter the car wash is:

[tex]P(5)=8^{5} \cdot e^{-8}/5!=32768*0.0003/120=0.0920\\\\[/tex]

Answer 2

The probability that, in an hour, exactly 5 cars will enter the car wash will be 0.0920.

What is probability?

Probability means possibility. It deals with the occurrence of a random event. The value of probability can only be from 0 to 1.

Its basic meaning is something is likely to happen. It is the ratio of the favorable event to the total number of events.

The mean rate is found as;

[tex]\rm \lambda =4 \ cars / half \ an \ hour = 8 car / hour[/tex]

The probability that exactly k cars will enter the car wash

[tex]P(x=K) = \frac{8^k e^{-8}}{k\!}\\\\P(x=5) = \frac{8^5 e^{-8}}{5\!}\\\\ P(x=5)=0.0920[/tex]

Hence the probability that, in an hour, exactly 5 cars will enter the car wash will be 0.0920.

On August 1, 2021, a company accepts an $8,000, 9-month note receivable. For 2021, the company reports interest revenue of $200. What is the interest rate on the note?

Answers

Answer:

6%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate the interest rate in the note, we must follow the following steps, calculate the amount of time remaining from the year 2021, as follows:

interest is for 5 months i.e. from Aug 01 to Dec 31 for year 2021 , so it means it would be 5/12 months.

We have to calculate the interest as follows:

I = P * R * T

We replace:

200 = 8000 * R * 5/12

we solve for R

200 * 12/5 = 8000 * R

R * 8000 = 480

R = 480/8000

R = 0.06

Which means that the interest rate on the note is 6%

a) For what value(s) of k is the following SoLE inconsistent?
x - 2y + 4z = 3
4x + 5y + kz = 9
y + 3z = 2

Answers

Answer: z = 55.

Step-by-step explanation:

we want to find values of k that make this inconsistent.

x - 2y + 4z = 3

4x + 5y + kz = 9

y + 3z = 2

First, can you can see that k never can make some of the equations linearly dependent because of how constructed is the set. Now, let's see if there are values of k that give problems to our system.

To see it, let's solve the system.

from the third equation we can write y = 2 - 3z, and we can replace it into the first two equations:

x - 2(2 - 3z) + 4z  = 3

4x + 5(2 - 3z) + kz = 9

simplify both equations and get

x  + 10z = 7

4x  + ( k - 15)*z = - 1

from the first equation, we have that:

x = 7 - 10z

we can replace it into the other equation:

4*(7 - 10z) + (k - 15)*z = -1

28 - 40z + (k -15)*z = -1

(k - 55)*z = -29

z = -29/(k - 55)

here you can see that the only value of z that has problems is z = 55, because we never can have a 0 in the denominator.

The FDA regulates that fresh Albacore tuna fish that is consumed is allowed to contain 0.82 ppm of mercury or less. A laboratory is estimating the amount of mercury in tuna fish for a new company and needs to have a margin of error within 0.023 ppm of mercury with 97% confidence. Assume the population standard deviation is 0.143 ppm of mercury. What sample size is needed? Round up to the nearest integer, do not include any decimals. Answer:

Answers

Answer:

[tex]n=(\frac{2.17(0.143)}{0.023})^2 =182.03 \approx 183[/tex]

So the answer for this case would be n=183 rounded up to the nearest integer

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided

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

[tex]\mu[/tex] population mean (variable of interest)

[tex]\sigma = 0.143[/tex] represent the population standard deviation

n represent the sample size  

[tex] ME = 0.023[/tex] the margin of error desired

Solution to the problem

The margin of error is given by this formula:

[tex] ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]    (a)

And on this case we have that ME =0.023 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:

[tex]n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2[/tex]   (b)

The confidence level is 97% or 0.97 and the significance would be [tex]\alpha=1-0.97=0.03[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2 = 0.015[/tex] then the critical value would be: [tex]z_{\alpha/2}=2.17[/tex], replacing into formula (5) we got:

[tex]n=(\frac{2.17(0.143)}{0.023})^2 =182.03 \approx 183[/tex]

Find the composite function N ( T ( t ) ) : N ( T ( t ) ) = Find the time when the bacteria count reaches 8019. Time Needed = hours

Answers

Answer:

[tex]N(T(t)) = 1408t^2 - 385.6t - 105.52[/tex]

Time for bacteria count reaching 8019: t = 2.543 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the composite function N(T(t)), we just need to use the value of T(t) for each T in the function N(T). So we have that:

[tex]N(T(t)) = 22 * (8t + 1.7)^2 - 123 * (8t + 1.7) + 40[/tex]

[tex]N(T(t)) = 22 * (64t^2 + 27.2t + 2.89) - 984t - 209.1 + 40[/tex]

[tex]N(T(t)) = 1408t^2 + 598.4t + 63.58 - 984t - 169.1[/tex]

[tex]N(T(t)) = 1408t^2 - 385.6t - 105.52[/tex]

Now, to find the time when the bacteria count reaches 8019, we just need to use N(T(t)) = 8019 and then find the value of t:

[tex]8019 = 1408t^2 - 385.6t - 105.52[/tex]

[tex]1408t^2 - 385.6t - 8124.52 = 0[/tex]

Solving this quadratic equation, we have that t = 2.543 hours, so that is the time needed to the bacteria count reaching 8019.

Answer:

0.495 probability that Jim and Molly take counters of different colours

Step-by-step explanation:

For each trial, there are only two possible outcomes. Either a blue counter is picked, or a red counter is picked. The counter is put back in the bag after it is taken, which means that we can use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

The probability that the counter is red is 0.45

This means that [tex]p = 0.45[/tex]

Jim taken a counter, then Molly:

Two trials, so [tex]n = 2[/tex]

What is the probability that Jim and Molly take counters of different colours?

One red and one blue. So this is P(X = 1).

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{2,1}.(0.45)^{1}.(0.55)^{1} = 0.495[/tex]

b. describe-how-you-will-simulate a trial.

c. describe-the-response-variable

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

A component is one voter's voting. An outcome is a vote in favor of our candidate.

Since there are 100 voters, we can stimulate the component by using two random digits from 00 - 99, where the digits 00 - 64 represents a vote for our candidate and the digits 65 - 99 represents a vote for the under dog.

Part B:

A trial is 100 votes. We can stimulate the trial by randomly picking 100 two-digits numbers from 00 - 99.

And counted how many people voted for each candidate.  Whoever gets the majority of the votes wins the trial.

Part C:

The response variable is whether the underdog  wins or not.

To calculate the experimental probability, divide the number of trials in which the simulated underdog wins by the total number of trials.

4a^2 = 2x                     Divide both sides by 2

2a^2 = x                       Put a = 10√2 into a^2

2(10√2)^2 = x               Square a

2(200) = x

x = 400

x^(a^2) / x ^(b^2) = x^36

Substitute a + b = 4 in for b.

x^(a^2) / x^(4 - a)^2 = x^36

Subtract powers

x^(a^2 - (4 - a)^2 = x^36

x^(a^2 - (16 - 8a + a^2) = x^36

Gather like terms

x^(8a - 16) = x^36

The powers are now equal

8a - 16 = 36      

Add 16 to both sides

8a = 36 + 16

8a = 52

Divide by 8

a = 6.5

Solve for b

6.5 + b = 4

b = 4 - 6.5

b = - 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

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.

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.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 18, \sigma = 5.2, n = 35, s = \frac{5.2}{\sqrt{35}} = 0.879[/tex]

95% of the sample means:

From the: 50 - (95/2) = 2.5th percentile.

To the: 50 + (95/2) = 97.5th percentile.

2.5th percentile:

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.025. So X when Z = -1.96.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]-1.96 = \frac{X - 18}{0.879}[/tex]

[tex]X - 18 = -1.96*0.879[/tex]

[tex]X = 16.3[/tex]

97.5th percentile:

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.975. So X when Z = 1.96.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]1.96 = \frac{X - 18}{0.879}[/tex]

[tex]X - 18 = 1.96*0.879[/tex]

[tex]X = 19.7[/tex]

95% of the sample means are between 16.3 and 19.7 hours. This interval contains the sample mean of 16.8 hours, which supports the study.

So the correct answer is:

a. The interval that contains 95% of the sample means is 16.3 and 19.7 hours. Because the sample mean is between these two values, we have support for the results of the CEO study by the Harvard Business School.

The weights of steers in a herd are distributed normally. The variance is 10,000 and the mean steer weight is 1400lbs. Find the probability that the weight of a randomly selected steer is between 1539 and 1580lbs. Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(1539<X<1580)=P(\frac{1539-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{1580-\mu}{\sigma})=P(\frac{1539-1400}{100}<Z<\frac{1580-1400}{100})=P(1.39<z<1.8)[/tex]

And we can find this probability using the normal standard table with this difference:

[tex]P(1.39<z<1.80)=P(z<1.80)-P(z<1.39)= 0.9641-0.9177=0.0464[/tex]

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(1539,1580)[/tex]  

Where [tex]\mu=1400[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=\sqrt{10000}= 100[/tex]

We are interested on this probability

[tex]P(1539<X<1580)[/tex]

And we can solve the problem using the z score formula given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

Using this formula we got:

[tex]P(1539<X<1580)=P(\frac{1539-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{1580-\mu}{\sigma})=P(\frac{1539-1400}{100}<Z<\frac{1580-1400}{100})=P(1.39<z<1.8)[/tex]

And we can find this probability using the normal standard table with this difference:

[tex]P(1.39<z<1.80)=P(z<1.80)-P(z<1.39)= 0.9641-0.9177=0.0464[/tex]

Determine whether the sequence converges or diverges. If it converges, find the limit. (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.) 1 2 , 1 3 , 1 3 , 1 4 , 1 4 , 1 5 , 1 5 , 1 6 , ...

Answers

Answer:

if the sequence is:

12, 13, 13, 14, 14 etc, and each term keeps growing up, the sequence obviusly diverges.

Now, if the sequence is

1/2, 1/3, 1/3, 1/4, 1/4, 1/5 , 1/5

so the terms after the first one repeat, we could group the terms with the same denominator and get:

1/2, 2/3, 2/4, 2/5..... etc.

So the terms after the first one are aₙ = 2/n.

Now, a criteria to see if a sequence converges if seing if:

[tex]\lim_{n \to \infty} a_n = 0[/tex]

and here we have;

[tex]\lim_{n \to \infty} 2/n[/tex]

that obviusly tends to zero, so we can conclude that this sequence converges.

then the limit is:

There exist a n' such that for any n > n' then IL -aₙI < ε

where L is the limit

I2/n - 0I = I2/nI < ε

then this is true if n > 2/ε = n'

The following questions pertain to the properties of the STANDARD NORMAL distribution. (a) True or False: The distribution is bell-shaped and symmetric. True False (b) True or False: The mean of the distribution is 0. True False (c) True or False The probability to the left of the mean is 0. True False (d) True or False The standard deviation of the distribution is 1. True False

Answers

Answer:

a. The distribution is bell-shaped and symmetric: True.

b. The distribution is bell-shaped and symmetric: True.

c. The probability to the left of the mean is 0: False.

d. The standard deviation of the distribution is 1: True.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Standard Normal distribution is a normal distribution with mean, [tex] \\ \mu = 0[/tex], and standard deviation, [tex] \\ \sigma = 1[/tex].

It is important to recall that the parameters of the Normal distributions, namely, [tex] \\ \mu[/tex] and [tex] \\ \sigma[/tex] characterized them.

We can use the Standard Normal distribution to find probabilities for any normally distributed data. All we have to do is normalized them through z-scores:

[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [1]

Where [tex] \\ x[/tex] is the raw score that we want to standardize.

Therefore, taking into account all this information, we can answer the following questions about the Standard Normal distribution:

(a) True or False: The distribution is bell-shaped and symmetric

Answer: True. As the normal distribution, the standard normal distribution is also bell-shape and it is symmetrical around the mean. The standardized values or z-scores, which represent the distance from the mean in standard deviations units, are the same but when it is above the mean, the z-score is positive, and negative when it is below the mean. This result is a consequence of the symmetry of this distribution respect to the mean of the distribution.

(b) True or False: The mean of the distribution is 0.

Answer: True. Since the Standard Normal uses standardized values, if we use [1], we have:

[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

If [tex] \\ x = \mu[/tex]

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

[tex] \\ z = \frac{0}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex] \\ z = 0[/tex]

Then, the value for the mean is where z = 0. A z-score is a linear transformation of the original data. For this reason, the transformed mean is equivalent to 0 in the standard normal distribution. We only need to find distances from this zero in standard normal deviations or z-scores to find probabilities.

(c) True or False: The probability to the left of the mean is 0.

Answer: False. The probability to the left of the mean is not 0. The cumulative probability from [tex] \\ -\infty[/tex] until the mean is 0.5000 or [tex] \\ P(-\infty < z < 0) = 0.5[/tex].

(d) True or False: The standard deviation of the distribution is 1.

Answer: True. The standard normal distribution is a convenient way of calculate probabilities for any normal distribution. The standardized variable, represented by [1], permits us to use one table (the standard normal table) for all normal distributions.

In this distribution, the z-score is always divided by the standard deviation of the population. Then, the standard deviation for the standard normal distribution are times or fractions of the standard deviation of the population, since we divide the distance of a raw score from the mean of the population, [tex] \\ x - \mu[/tex], by it. As a result, the standard deviation for the standard normal distribution will be times (1, 2, 3, 0.96, -1, -2, etc) the standard deviation of any normal distribution, [tex] \\ \sigma[/tex].

In this case, the linear transformation of the original data for one standard deviation from the mean is z = 1. Therefore, the standard deviation for the standard normal distribution is the unit.

A: true

B: true

The demand for the video games provided by Mid-Tech Video Games Inc. has exploded in the last several years. Hence, the owner needs to hire several new technical people to keep up with the demand. Mid-Tech gives each applicant a special test that Dr. McGraw, the designer of the test, believes is closely related to the ability to create video games. For the general population, the mean on this test is 100. Below are the scores on this first test for the applicants. 95 105 120 81 90 115 99 100 130 10 The owner is interested in the overall quality of the job applicants based on this test. Compute the mean and the median scores for the 10 applicants. What would you report to the owner

Answers

Answer:

Mean: 94.5.

Median: 99.5

Standard deviation: 33.1

We can tell the owner that the applicants don't have a score significantly below from 100.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we analize the sample and calculate the statistics (mean, median and standard deviation).

Mean of the sample:

[tex]M=\dfrac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n\,x_i\\\\\\M=\dfrac{1}{10}(95+105+120+81+90+115+99+100+130+10)\\\\\\M=\dfrac{945}{10}\\\\\\M=94.5\\\\\\[/tex]

The median, as the sample size is an even number, can be calculated as the average between the fifth and sixth value, sort by value:

[tex]\text{Median}=\dfrac{99+100}{2}=99.5[/tex]

The standard deviation is:

[tex]s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{n-1}\sum_{i=1}^n\,(x_i-M)^2}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{9}((95-94.5)^2+(105-94.5)^2+(120-94.5)^2+. . . +(10-94.5)^2)}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{9834.5}{9}}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{1092.7}=33.1\\\\\\[/tex]

To tell if this sample has a value significantly lower than the expected score of 100, we should make a hypothesis test.

The claim is that the mean score is significantly lower than 100.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \mu=100\\\\H_a:\mu< 100[/tex]

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample has a size n=10.

The sample mean is M=94.5.

As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=33.1.

The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:

[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{33.1}{\sqrt{10}}=10.467[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

[tex]t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{94.5-100}{10.467}=\dfrac{-5.5}{10.467}=-0.53[/tex]

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

[tex]df=n-1=10-1=9[/tex]

This test is a left-tailed test, with 9 degrees of freedom and t=-0.53, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

[tex]\text{P-value}=P(t<-0.53)=0.306[/tex]

As the P-value (0.306) is bigger than the significance level (0.05), the effect is not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the mean score is significantly lower than 100.
