Answer:
The 95% confidence interval for the population mean amount spent on groceries by Connecticut families is ($73.20, $280.21).
Step-by-step explanation:
The data for the amount of money spent weekly on groceries is as follows:
S = {210, 23, 350, 112, 27, 175, 275, 50, 95, 450}
n = 10
Compute the sample mean and sample standard deviation:
[tex]\bar x =\frac{1}{n}\cdot\sum X=\frac{ 1767 }{ 10 }= 176.7[/tex]
[tex]s= \sqrt{ \frac{ \sum{\left(x_i - \overline{x}\right)^2 }}{n-1} } = \sqrt{ \frac{ 188448.1 }{ 10 - 1} } \approx 144.702[/tex]
It is assumed that the data come from a normal distribution.
Since the population standard deviation is not known, use a t confidence interval.
The critical value of t for 95% confidence level and degrees of freedom = n - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9 is:
[tex]t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}=t_{0.05/2, (10-1)}=t_{0.025, 9}=2.262[/tex]
*Use a t-table.
Compute the 95% confidence interval for the population mean amount spent on groceries by Connecticut families as follows:
[tex]CI=\bar x\pm t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}\cdot\ \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]=176.7\pm 2.262\cdot\ \frac{144.702}{\sqrt{10}}\\\\=176.7\pm 103.5064\\\\=(73.1936, 280.2064)\\\\\approx (73.20, 280.21)[/tex]
Thus, the 95% confidence interval for the population mean amount spent on groceries by Connecticut families is ($73.20, $280.21).
Use the multiplication rule for independent event probabilities. Two friends are both pregnant, and find out they are each expecting twins! Let A be the event that one friend is pregnant with identical twins, and note that P(A) = 0.0045. Let B be the event that the other friend is pregnant with fraternal twins, and note that P(B)= 0.01. A and B are independent events. What is the probability that one friend is pregnant with identical twins, and one friend is pregnant with fraternal twins? Give your answer as a percent, rounded to four decimal places if necessary.
Answer:
We have to multiply P(A) and P(B) which is 0.0045 * 0.01 * 100 (to make it a percentage) = 0.0045%.
wow I can't start typing the message an open cylindrical container has a base radius of 3.5 cm if the ratio of the area of its base to that of its curved surface is 1:6, calculate the height of the container
Answer:
height = 10.5 cm (for open-top container)
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the base is ...
A = πr²
The lateral area is ...
A = 2πrh
We want the ratio of these to be 1:6, so we have ...
πr²/(2πrh) = 1/6
6πr² = 2πrh . . . cross multiply
h = 3r . . . . . . . divide by 2πr
h = 3(3.5 cm) = 10.5 cm
The height is 10.5 cm.

Find the value of x in the figure below. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number)
A) 5 inches
B) 7 inches
C) 6 inches
D) 8 inches
YOU HAVE TO CLICK THE TRIANGLE TO EE IT BETTER, JUST IN CASE ON THE TOP LEFT SIDE IT IS 8IN AND THE BOTTOM OF THE TRIANGLE IS 10 IN
Answer: D) 8 inches
====================================================
Work Shown:
Refer to the diagram below.
A = 50 degrees
B = unknown
C = 80 degrees
-----
For any triangle, the three angles always add to 180
A+B+C = 180
50+B+80 = 180
B+130 = 180
B = 180-130
B = 50 degrees
Since angles B and C are the same measure, their opposite sides are the same length. Triangle ABC is isosceles. Therefore, a = x = 8
Answer: D) 8 inches.
Step-by-step explanation: The triangle has three angles: two were given (50º and 80º) and the other one can be calculated (50º). Therefore, this triangle is an isosceles triangle, it has one base and two congruent sides. Since the one side is 8in, then the other missing side must also be 8in according to the Isosceles Triangle Theorem.
Management at a home improvement store randomly selected 45 customers and observed their shopping habits. They recorded the number of items each of the customers purchased as well as the total time the customers spent in the store. Identify the types of variables recorded by the managers of the home improvement store.
Answer:
c. number of items - discrete; total time - continuous
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is incomplete due to the lack of the following options:
to. number of items - continuous; total time - discrete
b. number of items - continuous; total time - continuous
c. number of items - discrete; total time - continuous
d. number of items - discrete; total time - discrete
Knowing this, the type of variables recorded by managers of the home improvement store are,
c. number of items - discrete; total time - continuous
Discrete variables are those that are well defined and in the finite set of values and continuous variables are variables that can take a value between any of the other two values.
The blood platelet counts of a group of women have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 255.4 and a standard deviation of 63.9. (All units are 1000 cells/muL.) Using the empirical rule, find each approximate percentage below. a. What is the approximate percentage of women with platelet counts within 3 standard deviations of the mean, or between 63.7 and 447.1? b. What is the approximate percentage of women with platelet counts between 191.5 and 319.3?
Answer:
a) From the empirical rule we know that within 3 deviations from the mean we have 99.7% of the data
b) [tex] P(191.5<X<319.5)[/tex]
We can find the number of deviations from the mean for the limits using the z score formula given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] z=\frac{191.5-255.4}{63.9}= -1[/tex]
[tex] z=\frac{319.3-255.4}{63.9}= 1[/tex]
So we have values within 1 deviation from the mean and using the empirical rule we know that we have 68% of the values for this case
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the following properties for the random variable of interest "blood platelet counts"
[tex]\mu = 255.4[/tex] represent the mean
[tex]\sigma = 63.9[/tex] represent the population deviation
Part a
From the empirical rule we know that within 3 deviations from the mean we have 99.7% of the data
Part b
We want this probability:
[tex] P(191.5<X<319.5)[/tex]
We can find the number of deviations from the mean for the limits using the z score formula given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] z=\frac{191.5-255.4}{63.9}= -1[/tex]
[tex] z=\frac{319.3-255.4}{63.9}= 1[/tex]
So we have values within 1 deviation from the mean and using the empirical rule we know that we have 68% of the values for this case

A corporation must appoint a​ president, chief executive officer​ (CEO), chief operating officer​ (COO), and chief financial officer​ (CFO). It must also appoint a planning committee with four different members. There are 13 qualified​ candidates, and officers can also serve on the committee. A. How many different ways can the officers be​ appointed?B. How many different ways can the committee be​ appointed?
C. What is the probability of randomly selecting the committee members and getting the four youngest of the qualified​candidates?
Answer:
A) 715 ways
B) 715 ways
C) (1/715)
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a permutation and combination problem.
Since we want to select a number of people from a larger number of people, we use combination as the order of selection isn't important now.
A) How many different ways can the officers be appointed?
There are 4 officer positions.
There are 13 people in total.
We want to select 4 people from 13
Number of ways to select 4 people from 13 = ¹³C₄ = 715
B) How many different ways can the committee be appointed?
Number of committee members = 4
Total number of people available = 13
Number of ways to select 4 people from 13 = ¹³C₄ = 715
C) What is the probability of randomly selecting the committee members and getting the four youngest of the qualified candidates?
Selecting a group of the youngest candidates is just 1 amongst the total number of ways the 4 committee members can be picked,
Hence, the required probability = (1/715)
Hope this Helps!!!

Answer:
a) 0.1144
b) 0.1304
c) 0.2375
d) 0.7625
e) 14
f) 4.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
n = 20
p = 0.70
q = 1 - p ==> 1 - 0.70 = 0.30
a) Use the formula:
[tex] P(x) = CC\left(\begin{array}{ccc}n\\x\end{array}\right) p^x q^(^n^-^x^) [/tex]
Thus,
[tex]P(12) = C\left(\begin{array}{ccc}20\\12\end{array}\right) (0.7^1^2) (0.3^(^2^0^-^1^2^) )[/tex]
[tex] = 125970*0.0138*0.00006 [/tex]
[tex] = 0.1144 [/tex]
b) [tex]P(16) = C\left(\begin{array}{ccc}20\\16\end{array}\right) 0.7^1^6 (0.3^(^2^0^-^1^6^))[/tex]
[tex] = 4845 * 0.0033 * 0.0081 [/tex]
[tex] = 0.1304 [/tex]
c) Compute P(x≥16):
P(x ≥ 16) = P(16) + P(17) + P(18) + P(19) + P(20)
[tex]= C\left(\begin{array}{ccc}20\\16\end{array}\right) 0.7^1^6 (0.3^(^2^0^-^1^6^)) + C\left(\begin{array}{ccc}20\\17\end{array}\right) 0.7^1^7 (0.3^(^2^0^-^1^7^) ) + C\left(\begin{array}{ccc}20\\18\end{array}\right) 0.7^1^8 (0.3^(^2^0^-^1^8^)) + C\left(\begin{array}{ccc}20\\19\end{array}\right) 0.7^1^9 (0.3^(^2^0^-^1^9^)) + C\left(\begin{array}{ccc}20\\20\end{array}\right) 0.7^2^0 (0.3^(^2^0^-^2^0^))[/tex]
[tex] = 0.1304 + 0.0716 + 0.0278 + 0.0068 + 0.0008 = 0.2375 [/tex]
d) P(x ≤ 15):
= 1 - P(x ≥ 16)
= 1 - 0.2375
= 0.7625
e) E(x): use the formula, n * p.
= n*p
= 20 * 0.7
= 14
f) Var(x)
Use the formula: npq
npq = 20 * 0.7 * 0.3
= 4.2

Compute the standard error for sample proportions from a population with proportion p= 0.55 for sample sizes of n=30, n=100 and n=1000 . Round your answers to three decimal places.
Given Information:
Population proportion = p = 0.55
Sample size 1 = n₁ = 30
Sample size 2 = n₂ = 100
Sample size 3 = n₃ = 1000
Required Information:
Standard error = σ = ?
Answer:
[tex]$ \sigma_1 = 0.091 $[/tex]
[tex]$ \sigma_2 = 0.050 $[/tex]
[tex]$ \sigma_3 = 0.016 $[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard error for sample proportions from a population is given by
[tex]$ \sigma = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} } $[/tex]
Where p is the population proportion and n is the sample size.
For sample size n₁ = 30
[tex]$ \sigma_1 = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n_1} } $[/tex]
[tex]$ \sigma_1 = \sqrt{\frac{0.55(1-0.55)}{30} } $[/tex]
[tex]$ \sigma_1 = 0.091 $[/tex]
For sample size n₂ = 100
[tex]$ \sigma_2 = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n_2} } $[/tex]
[tex]$ \sigma_2 = \sqrt{\frac{0.55(1-0.55)}{100} } $[/tex]
[tex]$ \sigma_2 = 0.050 $[/tex]
For sample size n₃ = 1000
[tex]$ \sigma_3 = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n_3} } $[/tex]
[tex]$ \sigma_3 = \sqrt{\frac{0.55(1-0.55)}{1000} } $[/tex]
[tex]$ \sigma_3 = 0.016 $[/tex]
As you can notice, the standard error decreases as the sample size increases.
Therefore, the greater the sample size lesser will be the standard error.

eric has practiced more than 40 hours with his band. Write an inequality to express this situation. On the graph below, graph Erics situation
Answer:
We can call the variable e. "more than" is denoted by > so the inequality is e > 40. To graph it, draw a circle on the tick mark that has 40 underneath it but don't fill in the circle. Then, draw a continuous line to the right of the circle and draw an arrow at the end of it to show that it goes on forever.
Let R(x), C(x), and P(x) be, respectively, the revenue, cost, and profit, in dollars, from the production and sale of x items. If R(x) = 6x and C(x) equals = 0.002x^2+2.2x+40, find each of the following. a. p(x) b.p(100) c. P'(x) d.P'(100)
Answer:
[tex]a.\ P(x) = - 0.002x^2+3.8x-40[/tex]
b. 320
[tex]c.\ P'(x) = -0.004 x + 3.8[/tex]
d. 3.76
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Revenue function:
[tex]R(x) = 6x[/tex]
Cost Function:
[tex]C(x) = 0.002x^2+2.2x+40[/tex]
We know that,
Answer a: Profit = Revenue - Cost
[tex]\Rightarrow P(x) = R(x) - C(x)\\\Rightarrow P(x) = 6x - (0.002x^2+2.2x+40)\\\Rightarrow P(x) = - 0.002x^2+3.8x-40[/tex]
Answer b:
P(100) = ?
Putting value of x as 100 in above equation:
[tex]P(100) = - 0.002\times 100^2+3.8 \times 100-40\\\Rightarrow P(100) = -20+380 -40\\\Rightarrow P(100) = 320[/tex]
Answer c:
P'(x) = ?
Differentiating the equation [tex]P(x) = - 0.002x^2+3.8x-40[/tex]
[tex]P'(x) = -2 \times 0.002 x^{2-1} + 3.8 + 0\\P'(x) = -0.004 x + 3.8[/tex]
Answer d:
P'(100) = ?
Putting x = 100 in equation [tex]P'(x) = -0.004 x + 3.8[/tex]
[tex]P'(100) = -0.004 \times 100 + 3.8\\P'(100) = -0.4 + 3.8\\P'(100) = 3.76[/tex]

A farmer wanted to paint a shed out in his field. Here is the breakdown of the dimensions: the building is sitting on a square slab of cement that is 10' x 10'. It is 8 feet from the bottom of the shed to the bottom of the roof on the edge, and 10 feet from the bottom of the shed to the top of the very tip top of the roof. So A = 10, B = 8 and C = 10. Using the formula for the area of a rectangle, A = l x w and the area of a triangle, 1/2(bh), b is base and h is height, then find the total area that needs to be painted. Total area =
Answer:
340 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
If we "unwrap" the painted surface from the shed, it will have the shape shown in the attachment. It is essentially a 40' by 8' rectangle with two 10' wide by 2' high triangles added.
The rectangle area is ...
A = LW = (40 ft)(8 ft) = 320 ft²
The total area of the two triangles is ...
A = 2(1/2)bh = (10 ft)(2 ft) = 20 ft²
Then the painted area is ...
total area = 320 ft² +20 ft²
total area = 340 ft²

A researcher is conducting a study on eating disorders. Using a list of recent participants in the online Weight Watchers program, she randomly selects a name from the alphabetized list. She then chooses every tenth person from that point on to include in her study. What is this sampling plan and example of?A. Judgmental SamplingB. Random SamplingC. Systematic SamplingD. Stratified SamplingE. Cluster Sampling
Answer:
Option c
Step-by-step explanation:
Systematic sampling is a probability type of samplng method in which elements are picked from a large population at a random start point and then the others are picked by constant periodic intervals which is usually done by dividing the population size by the chosen sample size. Then do a random start between 1 and the sampling interval, then repeatedly add the sampling interval to select subsequent elements.
