Answer:
The probability that a group of 15 randomly selected skiers will overload the gondola = (3.177 × 10⁻⁵¹)
(almost zero probability showing how almost impossible it is to overload the gondola, therefore showing how very safe the gondola is)
Step-by-step explanation:
Complete Question
A ski gondola carries skiers to the top of the mountain. If the Total weight of an adult skier and the equipment is normally distributed with mean 200 lb and standard deviation 40 lb.
Consider the ski gondola from Question 3. Suppose engineers decide to reduce the risk of an overload by reducing the passenger capacity to a maximum of 15 skiers. Assuming the maximum load limit remains at 5,000 lb, what is the probability that a group of 15 randomly selected skiers will overload the gondola.
Solution
For 15 people to exceed 5000 lb, each person is expected to exceed (5000/15) per skier.
Each skier is expected to exceed 333.333 lb weight.
Probability of one skier exceeding this limit = P(x > 333.333)
This becomes a normal distribution problem with mean = 200 lb, standard deviation = 40 lb
We first standardize 333.333 lbs
The standardized score for any value is the value minus the mean then divided by the standard deviation.
z = (x - μ)/σ = (333.333 - 200)/40 = 3.33
To determine the required probability
P(x > 333.333) = P(z > 3.33)
We'll use data from the normal distribution table for these probabilities
P(x > 333.333) = P(z > 3.33) = 1 - P(z ≤ 3.33)
= 1 - 0.99957
= 0.00043
So, the probability that 15 people will now all be above this limit = (probability of one person exceeding the limit)¹⁵ = (0.00043)¹⁵
= (3.177 × 10⁻⁵¹)
(almost zero probability showing how almost impossible it is to overload the gondola, therefore showing how very safe the gondola is)

Answer: The point estimate is 1132.5 Kilowatts
Step-by-step explanation: Regression analysis is used to find an equation that fits the data. Once this equation is found, it's used to make predictions. One of the regressions is linear regression.
To find the linear regression model:
1) Create a table with the following: ∑y; ∑x; ∑xy; ∑x²; ∑y²;
2) Use these equations to find coefficients a and b:
a = (∑y)(∑x²) - (∑x)(∑yx) / n(∑x²) - (∑x)²
b = n(∑xy) - (∑x)(∑y) / n(∑x²) - (∑x)²
3) Substitute the coefficients into the equation of form: y = a + bx
For the table above, the linear regression equation is:
y = - 2004 + 34.85x
When Temperature is 90, i.e. x = 90:
y = - 2004 + 34.85*90
y = 1132.5
The estimate Kilowatt is 1132.5.
The computer hardware company requires all of its chips purchased from its supplier of computer chips to meet specifications of 1.2 cm with the margins of error of plus and minus 0.1 cm. Based on the computer chip supplied last month, the mean length of a computer chip was 0.9 cm. What are the elements that the production manager should consider in determining his company's ability to produce chips that meet specifications
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The computer hardware company requires all of the chips purchased from its supplier of computer chips to meet the specification of 1.2 centimeters, with error margins of -0.1cm and +0.1cm
This means that the required length of computer chips is between 1.1cm - 1.3cm
Where 1.1cm = [1.2 - 0.1]
1.3cm = [1.2 + 0.1]
Based on the computer chips supplied last month, mean length was 0.9cm. This means that most of the chips were (in length) less than the lower boundary of 1.1cm.
The element that the production manager should consider in determining his company's ability to produce chips that meet specification is:
- The length of the chips.
The length of the chips his production team produces should be tailored to meet the length specification of his client.

You have been assigned to determine whether more people prefer Coke or Pepsi. Assume that roughly half the population prefers Coke and half prefers Pepsi. How large a sample do you need to take to ensure that you can estimate, with 95% confidence, the proportion of people preferring Coke within 3% of the actual value? [Hint: proportion est. = 0.5] Round your answer to whole number
Answer:
[tex]n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.03}{1.96})^2}=1067.11[/tex]
And rounded up we have that n=1068
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the following info given:
[tex] ME=0.03[/tex] the margin of error desired
[tex]Conf= 0.95[/tex] the level of confidence given
The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:
[tex] ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}[/tex] (a)
the critical value for 95% of confidence is [tex] z=1.96[/tex]
We can use as estimator for the population of interest [tex]\hat p=0.5[/tex]. And on this case we have that [tex]ME =\pm 0.03[/tex] and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:
[tex]n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}[/tex] (b)
And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:
[tex]n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.03}{1.96})^2}=1067.11[/tex]
And rounded up we have that n=1068

Edith is purchasing a car whose MSRP is $22,750. She has asked for an
upgrade to a premium package for which the cost is $5050. The delivery of
this vehicle is an additional $700. Edith will trade in her own car, and the
dealer has offered her $8000. If Edith agrees to this, what will be her total
price for the vehicle?
Answer:
Dear Yates
Answer to your query is provided below
Total Price for her vehicle will be $20600
Step-by-step explanation:
Edith's trading is worth $8000. So, without the package upgrade of the vehicle delivery charge, her cost is:
$22750 - $8000 = $14750.
Now, add the package upgrade ($5050) and the delivery charge ($800).
$14750 + $5050 + $800 = $20600.
The total cost price of the vehicle after all the expenses is given by the equation A = $ 20,500
What is an Equation?Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.
It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.
Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.
Given data ,
Let the equation be represented as A
Now , the value of A is
Substituting the values in the equation , we get
The initial cost of the vehicle is = $ 22,750
Now , Edith has asked for an upgrade to a premium package for which the cost is $5050
So , the new cost of the vehicle = $ 22,750 + $ 5050 = $ 27,800
Now , the delivery charge of the vehicle = $ 700
And , the updated total price = $ 27,800 + $ 700 = $ 28,500
Now , the dealer has offered her $8000
So , the final price of the vehicle = updated total price - $ 8000
On simplifying the equation , we get
The final price of the vehicle A = $ 28,500 - $ 8,000
The final price of the vehicle A = $ 20,500
Hence , the final price of the vehicle is $ 20,500

Choose the ratio that you would use to convert 1.5 feet to miles. Remember
that there are 5,280 feet in one mile.
Answer: B, 1 mile / 5280 ft.
Step-by-step explanation: If you need to convert feet to miles the unit multiplier (ratio) that you use should have miles on top and feet on the bottom so that the feet cancel when you multiply, leaving miles as the unit. B is the only answer that has miles on top and feet on the bottom as well as the correct amounts (1 mile and 5280 ft).

Heidi looks at the donkeys and
tourists. She counts 50 heads
and 114 legs.
How many donkeys are there?
o
ANSWER:
O The retired question
Answer:
7 donkeys
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
A system consisting of donkeys and tourists
Heads = 50
Legs = 114
Required
Calculate number of donkeys.
Represent donkeys with D and tourists with T.
By means of identification; donkeys and tourists (human) both have 1 head.
This implies that
Number of Heads = D + T
50 = D + T ----- Equation 1
While each donkey have 4 legs, each tourists have 2 legs.
This implies that
Number of legs = 4D + 2T
114 = 4D + 2T ---- Multiply both sides by ½
114 * ½ = (4D + 2T) * ½
57 = 4D * ½ + 2T * ½
57 = 2D + T ----- Equation 2
Subtract equation 1 from 2
57 = 2D + T
- (50 = D + T)
---------------------
57 - 50 = 2D - D + T - T
7 = D
Recall that D represents the number of donkeys.
So, D = 7 implies that
The total number of donkeys are 7
Heights of Women. Heights of adult women are distributed normally with a mean of 162 centimeters and a standard deviation of 8 centimeters. Use the Table B.3 Areas under the Normal Curve (page 519 of the textbook) to find the indicated quantities: a) The percentage of heights less than 150 centimeters b) The percentage of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters
Answer:
a) 6.68% of heights less than 150 centimeters
b) 58.65% of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters
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 = 162, \sigma = 8[/tex]
a) The percentage of heights less than 150 centimeters
We have to find the pvalue of Z when X = 150. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{150 - 162}{8}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.5[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.5[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0668
6.68% of heights less than 150 centimeters
b) The percentage of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters
We have to find the pvalue of Z when X = 180 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 160.
X = 180
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{180 - 162}{8}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.25[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.25[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9878
X = 160
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{160 - 162}{8}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.25[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.25[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.4013
0.9878 - 0.4013 = 0.5865
58.65% of heights between 160 centimeters and 180 centimeters

For a specific location in a particularly rainy city, the time a new thunderstorm begins to produce rain (first drop time) is uniformly distributed throughout the day and independent of this first drop time for the surrounding days. Given that it will rain at some point both of the next two days, what is the probability that the first drop of rain will be felt between 8: 40 AM and 2: 35 PM on both days? a) 0.2479 Web) 0.0608 om c) 0.2465 d) 0.9385 e) 0.0615 f) None of the above.
Answer:
b) 0.0608
Step-by-step explanation:
As it is mentioned that the next two days i.e 24 hours, the probability of the rain is uniformly distributed
Therefore the rain probability is
[tex]= \frac{T}{24}[/tex]
where,
T = Length of the time interval
Plus, as we know that rain is independent
So let us assume the rain between the 8: 40 AM and 2: 35 PM on single day is P1 and the time interval is 5 hours 55 minutes
i.e
= 5.91666 hours long.
So, P1 should be
[tex]= \frac{5.91666}{24}[/tex]
= 0.2465
Now we assume the probability of rain on day 2 is P2
So it would be same i.e 0.2465
Since these events are independent
So, the total probability is
[tex]= 0.2465 \times 0.2465[/tex]
= 0.0608
Hence, the b option is correct

What is the area of the trapezoid below? Select one: a. 88 cm2 b. 44√3 cm2 c. 65 cm2 d. 36√3 cm2
Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are not given the height of the trapezoid, we can split this into a triangle and a rectangle. We find the area of each and then add them together. In order to do so, we must use Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing length so that we can find the area.
a²+b²=c²
a²+4²=8²
a²+16=64
a²=48
a=√48
a=4√3
Now that we know the missing length of the triangle, we can find the area of the triangle and the rectangle.
Triangle
A=1/2bh
A=1/2(4)(4√3)
A=8√3
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rectangle
A=lw
A=7(4√3)
A=28√3
With our areas, we can add them together.
