40/3 feet /second fast the top of the ladder sliding down the wall.

What is ladder?

A ladder is a piece of gear used for climbing up or down objects that consists of repeated bars or steps (rungs) between two upright lengths of metal, wood, or rope.

Typically, these ladders work best for outdoor tasks like roof access or exterior painting. A straight ladder's reach is typically two feet higher than its height.

Given:

A 10 foot ladder is leaning against a wall when the base begins to slide away from the wall. when the base is 8 feet from the wall, the base is moving at the rate of 4 feet per second.

We have dx/dt = 4 feet per second

We want to find dy/dt.

From given information,

x^2 + y^2 = 10^2         ..(1)

When x = 8

⇒ y = √(10^2 - 8^2)

y = √(100 - 64)

y = √36

y = 6 feet

Now differentiate equation (1) with respect to t

[tex]2x\frac{dx}{dt} +2y\frac{dy}{dt} = 0\\ x\frac{dx}{dt} + y\frac{dy}{dt} = 0\\ \frac{dy}{dt} = -\frac{x}{y} \frac{dx}{dt}[/tex]

Plug x = 8, y = 6 and dx/dt = 10

⇒

[tex]\frac{dy}{dt} = -\frac{8}{6}(10)\\ \frac{dy}{dt} = -\frac{40}{3}[/tex]

Hence, 40/3 feet /second fast the top of the ladder sliding down the wall.

With 95% of confidence interval for the time it takes salesperson to talk to a potential customer is (12.42 , 5.38).

A Random sample is a randomly selected subset of a population. In this sampling method, each member of the population has an exactly equal chance of being selected, minimizing the risk of selection bias.

In probability theory and statistics, variance is the expectation of the squared deviation of a random variable from its population mean or sample mean. Variance is a measure of dispersion, meaning it is a measure of how far a set of numbers is spread out from their average value. Variance is an important tool in the sciences, where statistical analysis of data is common. The variance is the square of the standard deviation, the second central moment of a distribution, and the covariance of the random variable with itself, and it is often represented by σ ² ,s² ,Var(X) , or V(X).

A confidence interval (CI) is a range of estimates for an unknown parameter. A confidence interval is computed at a designated confidence level; the 95% confidence level is most common, but other levels, such as 90% or 99%, are sometimes used. The confidence level represents the long-run proportion of corresponding CIs that contain the true value of the parameter. For example, out of all intervals computed at the 95% level, 95% of them should contain the parameter's true value.

Given in the question:

x = 8.90

σ = 6

α = 0.95

A combination is a choice made in mathematics from a group of different elements when the order of the choices is irrelevant (unlike permutations). For instance, if three fruits, such as an apple, an orange, and a pear, are supplied, there are three possible pairings of the two: an apple and a pear. Formally speaking, a k-combination of a set S is a subset of S's k unique components. In other words, two combinations are the same if and only if they have the same members.

The rate at which a quantity multiplies itself over time is known as its growth factor. A quantity's growth rate is the factor by which it grows (or shrinks) over time.

Here, we have

The required expression for y with respect to x is:

y = (1.7)ˣ.......(1)

The participant could fill out the questionnaire before experiencing the therapy session.

Statistical errors are defined as errors that describe the difference that exists between a value obtained from a data collection process and the 'true' value for the population. Thus, the greater the error, the less representative the data will be of the population.

There are two main errors in this case which are type I error and type II error.

A type I error is called false-positive and it occurs if an investigator rejects a null hypothesis that is actually true in the population.

A type II error is called false-negative and it occurs if the investigator fails to reject a null hypothesis that is actually false in the population.

Now, from the question, since the data collection protocol alls for a questionnaire to be administered to patients having knee replacement surgery after the third physical therapy appointment, then we can introduce an error by;

So the p-value obtained was a very high value and using the significance level given  we have  so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of people with depression or a depressive illness is not significantly lower than 0.083 (8.3%)

Data given and notation

n = 100 represent the random sample taken

X=8 represent the people with depression or a depressive illness

p = 8/100 = 0.08 estimated proportion of people with depression or a depressive illness

p₀ = 0.083  is the value that we want to test

α = 0.05 represent the significance level  assumed

Confidence = 83% or 0.83  assumed

z  would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

pₐ represent the p value (variable of interest)  

Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportions of people with depression or a depressive illness is lower than the general adult population value of 8.3% or 0.083:  

Null hypothesis:  

p ≥ 0.083

Alternative hypothesis:  

p < 0.083

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:

[tex]z = \frac{p- p_{0} }{\sqrt{p_{0} ( 1 - p_{0} )/ n } }[/tex]                       ---------------------  (1)  

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion  is significantly different from a hypothesized value .

Calculate the statistic  

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

[tex]z = \frac{0.08- 0.083 }{\sqrt{0.083 ( 1 - 0.083 )/ 100 } }[/tex]

 =  - 0.083 / √ 0.0076

 = -0.083 / 0.028

 = -0.108

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The significance level assumed is α = 0.05 . The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a left tailed test the p value would be:  

     pₐ = P( z < -0.108 ) = 0.4562

So the p value obtained was a very high value and using the significance level given  we have  so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of people with depression or a depressive illness is not significantly lower than 0.083 (8.3%).

The probability of  first drawing a red card, then a jack, and then a black card is 0.0612

First we will describe the standard deck of 52 cards in terms of black, red and face cards found in a standard deck

Following is a table of distribution of colored and face card found in a standard deck:

                Type                   Number of cards

                1 - 10                                40

                Black                               26

                Red                                 26

                Face                                12

The numerical cards from digit ( 1 to 10 ) are found in all 4 suits ( Clubs, Diamonds, Spades, and Hearts ). Hence, 10 x 4 = 40

- The entire deck is split in two colors ( Red and Black ) equally. So, the number of Black and Red cards are = 52 / 2 = 26 cards.

- The face cards are of three types ( King, Queen and Jack ). These three face cards are found in each of the 4 suits. Hence, Total number of face cards are = 4 * 3 = 12

- We will now consider the probabilities associated with each type. We will define 3 events and write down their probability as expressed:

Event ( A ): First draw is a red card.

- The probability of this event can be determined with the help of the table given above. There are a total of 26 red card in a standard deck of 52 cards. Hence,

           p ( A ) = [ Number of red cards ] / [ Total cards in a deck ]

           p ( A ) = [ 26 ] / [ 52 ]

           p ( A ) = 1 / 2

- After we make the first draw of a red card. Our deck distribution is changed to Number of Red cards remaining = 25 and total deck now has 51 cards remaining.

- We will define the next event as:

Event ( B ): The second draw is a face card.

- The probability of this event can be determined with the help of the table given above. There are a total of 12 face cards in a standard deck of 52 cards which is now down to 51 cards. Hence,

           p ( B ) = [ Number of face cards ] / [ Total cards in a deck ]

           p ( B ) = [ 12 ] / [ 51 ]

           p ( B ) = 4 / 17

- After we make the first draw of a face card. Our deck distribution is changed to Number of Face cards remaining = 11 and total deck now has 50 cards remaining.

- We will define the next event as:

Event ( C ): The third draw is a black card.

- The probability of this event can be determined with the help of the table given above. There are a total of 26 black cards in the deck. The total number of cards are down to 50 cards only. Therefore,

           p ( C ) = [ Number of black cards ] / [ Total cards in a deck ]

           p ( C ) = [ 26 ] / [ 50 ]

           p ( C ) = 13 / 25

- The entire drawing process consists of 3 events which are dependent on each draw. However, for the overall event to occur i.e drawing a red card , then a face card, and then a black card. We will multiply all three outcomes as follows:

         p ( T ) = p ( A ) * p ( B ) * p ( C )

         p ( T ) = [ 1 / 2 ] * [ 4 / 17 ] * [ 13 / 25 ]

         p ( T ) =  [ 26 / 425 ] ≈ 0.0612

Hence we get the required answer.
