Answer:
The Empirical Rule
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed(bell-shaped) random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
So the answer to this question is the Empirical Rule

A boat that can travel 18 mph in still water can travel 21 miles downstream in the same amount of time that it can travel 15 miles upstream. Find the speed (in mph) of the current in the river.
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
We see that if the river isn't moving at all the boat can move at 18 mph (most likely because it has an engine propelling it.)
We want to set up a proportion where our 21 miles downstream time is equal to our 15 miles upstream time so we can find the speed. A proportion is basically showing that two ratios are equal. Since our downstream distance and upstream distance can be done in the same amount of time, we will write it as a proportion.
We want to find the speed of the river. We will use r to represent the speed of the river. When going downstream, the boat will go faster, so it will have a higher mph. So, our speed going down is 18+r. When you are going upstream, it's the opposite, so it will be 18-r.
[tex]\frac{distance}{speed} =\frac{21}{18+r} = \frac{15}{18-r}[/tex]
So, how do we figure out what r is now? Well, one nice thing to know about proportions is that the product of the items diagonal from each other equals the product of the other items. Basically, that means that 15(18+r) is equal to 21(18-r). This is a very nice trick to solve proportions quickly. We see that we have made an equation and now we can solve it!
15(18+r)=21(18-r)
We use the distributive property to undo the parentheses.
270+15r=378-21r
We subtract 270 from both sides.
15r=108-21
We add 21 to both sides.
36r=108
We divide both sides by 36.
r=3
Therefore, the speed of the river is 3 mph.
You also could have noticed that 18mph to 21 mph is +3, and 18mph to 15 mph -3 in -3 mph, so the speed of the river is 3 mph. That would have been a quicker way to solve it XD!
Have a wonderful day!

The life of light bulbs is distributed normally. The standard deviation of the lifetime is 25 hours and the mean lifetime of a bulb is 510 hours. Find the probability of a bulb lasting for at most 552 hours.
Answer:
The probability of a bulb lasting for at most 552 hours.
P(x>552) = 0.0515
Step-by-step explanation:
Step(i):-
Given mean of the life time of a bulb = 510 hours
Standard deviation of the lifetime of a bulb = 25 hours
Let 'X' be the random variable in normal distribution
Let 'x' = 552
[tex]Z = \frac{x-mean}{S.D} = \frac{552-510}{25} =1.628[/tex]
Step(ii):-
The probability of a bulb lasting for at most 552 hours.
P(x>552) = P(Z>1.63)
= 1- P( Z< 1.63)
= 1 - ( 0.5 + A(1.63)
= 1- 0.5 - A(1.63)
= 0.5 -A(1.63)
= 0.5 -0.4485
= 0.0515
Conclusion:-
The probability of a bulb lasting for at most 552 hours.
P(x>552) = 0.0515

In 1998, the average price for bananas was 51 cents per pound. In 2003, the following 7 sample prices (in cents) were obtained from local markets:
50, 53, 55, 43, 50, 47, 58.
Is there significant evidence to suggest that the average retail price of bananas is different than 51 cents per pound? Test at the 5% significance level.
Answer:
[tex]t=\frac{50.857-51}{\frac{5.014}{\sqrt{7}}}=-0.075[/tex]
The degrees of freedom are given by:
[tex]df=n-1=7-1=6[/tex]
The p value for this case would be given:
[tex]p_v = 2*P(t_6 <-0.075)=0.943[/tex]
The p value for this case is lower than the significance level so then we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly different from 51
Step-by-step explanation:
Info given
50, 53, 55, 43, 50, 47, 58.
We can calculate the sample mean and deviation with this formula:
[tex]\bar X=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}[/tex]
[tex]s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2)}{n-1}}[/tex]
represent the mean height for the sample
[tex]s=5.014[/tex] represent the sample standard deviation for the sample
[tex]n=7[/tex] sample size
represent the value that we want to test
[tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.
t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)
[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the p value
Hypothesis to test
We want to test if the true mean is equal to 51, the system of hypothesis would be:
Null hypothesis:[tex]\mu = 51[/tex]
Alternative hypothesis:[tex]\mu \neq 51[/tex]
The statistic is given by:
[tex]t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex] (1)
Replacing we got:
[tex]t=\frac{50.857-51}{\frac{5.014}{\sqrt{7}}}=-0.075[/tex]
The degrees of freedom are given by:
[tex]df=n-1=7-1=6[/tex]
The p value for this case would be given:
[tex]p_v = 2*P(t_6 <-0.075)=0.943[/tex]
The p value for this case is lower than the significance level so then we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly different from 51

There are two boxes containing only black and orange pens.
Box A has 4 black pens and 16 orange pens.
Box B has 2 black pens and 3 orange pens.
A pen is randomly chosen from each box. List these events from least likely to most likely.
Event 1: choosing a black pen from Box A.
Event 2: choosing a black or orange pen from Box A.
Event 3: choosing a white pen from Box B.
Event 4: choosing a black pen from Box B.
Answer:
Event 3 -> Event 1 -> Event 4 -> Event 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of choosing a certain pen is the number of that pen in the box over the total number of pens in the box.
So we have that:
Event 1: We have 4 black pen and 20 total pens, so P = 4 / 20 = 1 / 5
Event 2: All pens are black or orange so the probability is 1.
Event 3: We don't have white pens, so the probability is 0.
Event 4: We have 2 black pen and 5 total pens, so P = 2 / 5
Listing from least likely to most likely, we have:
Event 3 -> Event 1 -> Event 4 -> Event 2

Jill bought 7 books more than Sam. If Sam and Jill together have 25 books, find the
number of books Sam has.
Answer:
Jill bought 16 books and Sam bought 9 books
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of books that Jill bought be j.
Let the number of books that Sam bought be s.
Jill bought 7 more books than Sam:
j = 7 + s
They bought 25 books altogether:
j + s = 25
Put j = 7 + s into the second equation:
7 + s + s = 25
7 + 2s = 25
2s = 25 - 7 = 18
s = 18/2 = 9 books
Therefore:
j = 7 + s = 7 + 9
s = 16 books
Jill bought 16 books and Sam bought 9 books.

In order to study the mean blood pressure of people in his town, Richard samples the population by dividing the residents by age and randomly selecting a proportionate number of residents from each age group. Which type of sampling is used?
Answer:
Stratified sampling
Step-by-step explanation:
Samples may be classified as:
Convenient: Sample drawn from a conveniently available pool.
Random: Basically, put all the options into a hat and drawn some of them.
Systematic: Every kth element is taken. For example, you want to survey something on the street, you interview every 5th person, for example.
Cluster: Divides population into groups, called clusters, and each element in the cluster is surveyed.
Stratified: Also divides the population into groups. However, then only some elements of the group are surveyed.
In this question:
Population divided into groups. Some members of each group are surveyed. This is stratified sampling
Researchers fed mice a specific amount of Dieldrin, a poisonous pesticide, and studied their nervous systems to find out why Dieldrin causes seizures. The absolute refractory period, time required for nerves to recover after a stimulus, was measured and varies Normally. The measurements, in milliseconds, for six mice were 2.2, 2.4, 2.5, 2.5, 2.6, and 2.7. (10 points) Part A: Find the mean refractory period and the standard error of the mean. (2 points) Part B: Calculate a 98% confidence interval for the mean absolute refractory period for all mice when subjected to the same treatment. (4 points) Part C: Suppose the mean absolute refractory period for unpoisoned mice is known to be 2.3 milliseconds. Dieldrin poisoning should slow nerve recovery and therefore increase this period. Do the data give good evidence to support this theory? What can you conclude from a hypothesis test? Justify your response with statistical reasoning. (4 points)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A
Mean = (2.2 + 2.4 + 2.5 + 2.5 + 2.6 + 2.7)/6 = 2.48
Standard deviation = √(summation(x - mean)²/n
n = 6
Summation(x - mean)² = (2.2 - 2.48)^2 + (2.4 - 2.48)^2 + (2.5 - 2.48)^2 + (2.5 - 2.48)^2 + (2.6 - 2.48)^2 + (2.7 - 2.48)^2 = 0.1484
Standard deviation = √(0.1484/6
s = 0.16
Standard error = s/√n = 0.16/√6 = 0.065
Part B
Confidence interval is written as sample mean ± margin of error
Margin of error = z × s/√n
Since sample size is small and population standard deviation is unknown, z for 98% confidence level would be the t score from the student t distribution table. Degree of freedom = n - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5
Therefore, z = 3.365
Margin of error = 3.365 × 0.16/√6 = 0.22
Confidence interval is 2.48 ± 0.22
Part C
We would set up the hypothesis test. This is a test of a single population mean since we are dealing with mean
For the null hypothesis,
H0: µ = 2.3
For the alternative hypothesis,
H1: µ > 2.3
This is a right tailed test
Since the number of samples is small and no population standard deviation is given, the distribution is a student's t.
Since n = 6
Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5
t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)
Where
x = sample mean = 2.48
µ = population mean = 2.3
s = samples standard deviation = 0.16
t = (2.48 - 2.3)/(0.16/√6) = 2.76
We would determine the p value using the t test calculator. It becomes
p = 0.02
Assuming significance level, alpha = 0.05.
Since alpha, 0.05 > than the p value, 0.02, then we would reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, At a 5% level of significance, the sample data showed significant evidence that the mean absolute refractory period for all mice when subjected to the same treatment increased.
Suppose you toss a coin 100 times and get 65 heads and 35 tails. Based on these results, what is the probability that the next flip results in a tail?
Answer:
[tex] P(Head) = \frac{65}{100}=0.65[/tex]
[tex] P(Tail) = \frac{35}{100}=0.35[/tex]
And for this case the probability that in the next flip we will get a tail would be:
[tex] P(Tail) = \frac{35}{100}=0.35[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we know that a coin is toss 100 times and we got 65 heads and 35 tails.
We can calculate the empirical probabilities for each outcome and we got:
[tex] P(Head) = \frac{65}{100}=0.65[/tex]
[tex] P(Tail) = \frac{35}{100}=0.35[/tex]
And for this case the probability that in the next flip we will get a tail would be:
[tex] P(Tail) = \frac{35}{100}=0.35[/tex]

Given that triangle DAE ~ triangle BAC, what is the length of side AE?
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
For polygons that are similar to each other, the ratio of their corresponding sides are usually equal to each other, as they are proportional.
Therefore, given that ∆DAE is similar to ∆BAC, AD = 6, AB = 6+4 = 10, AE = x, AC = x + 8, therefore:
AD/AB = AE/AC
6/10 = x/(x+8)
Cross multiply
6*(x+8) = x*10
6x + 48 = 10x
Subtract 6x from both sides
48 = 10x - 6x
48 = 4x
Divide both sides by 4
48/4 = x
x = 12
Length of side AE = 12

According to the New York Stock Exchange, the mean portfolio value for U.S. senior citizens who are shareholders is $183,000. Assume portfolio values are normally distributed. Suppose a simple random sample of 51 senior citizen shareholders in a certain region of the United States is found to have a mean portfolio value of $198,000, with a standard deviation of $65,000.
a. From these sample results, and using the 0.05 level of significance comment on whether the mean portfolio value for all senior citizen shareholders in this region might not be the same as the mean value reported for their counterparts across the nation, by using the critical value method. Establish the null and alternative hypotheses.
b. What is your conclusion about the null hypothesis?
Answer:
The test statistic value t = 1.64 < 2.0086 at 0.05 level of significance
Null hypothesis is accepted
The mean portfolio value for all senior citizen shareholders in this region might not be the same as the mean value reported for their counterparts across the nation
Step-by-step explanation:
Step(i):-
Given mean of the population (μ) = $183,000
Given mean of the sample (x⁻) = $198,000
Given standard deviation of the sample (S) = $65,000.
Mean of the sample size 'n' = 51
level of significance α = 0.05
Step(ii):-
Null hypothesis : H₀ : There is no significance difference between the means
Alternative Hypothesis :H₁: There is significance difference between the means
Test statistic
[tex]t = \frac{x^{-}-mean }{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{198,000- 183,000 }{\frac{ 65,000}{\sqrt{51} } }[/tex]
t = 1.64
Step(iii)
Degrees of freedom ν = n-1 = 51-1 =50
t₀.₀₅ = 2.0086
The calculated value t = 1.64 < 2.0086 at 0.05 level of significance
Null hypothesis is accepted
Final answer:-
There is no significance difference between the means
The mean portfolio value for all senior citizen shareholders in this region might not be the same as the mean value reported for their counterparts across the nation
A fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes: large and small. A delivery of eight large boxes and four small boxes has a total weight of two hundred and one kilograms. A delivery of three large boxes and two small boxes has a total weight of eighty two kilograms. How much does each type of box weigh?
Answer:
Weight of Large Box = 18.5 kg
Weight of Large Box = 13.25 kg
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
There are two types of boxes i.e. Large and Small
Let the weight of Large boxes = L kg
Let the weight of Small boxes = S kg
As per given statement:
A delivery of eight large boxes and four small boxes has a total weight of two hundred and one kilograms.Writing equation for above:
[tex]8L + 4S = 201[/tex] ....... (1)
A delivery of three large boxes and two small boxes has a total weight of eighty two kilograms.Writing equation for above:
[tex]3L + 2S = 82 ....... (2)[/tex]
Now, by solving the equations (1) and (2), we can get the values of L and S.
Multiplying equation (2) with 2 and subtracting from equation (1):
[tex]8L + 4S = 201[/tex]
-
[tex]2 \times (3L + 2S) = 82 \times 2[/tex]
[tex]8L + 4S = 201[/tex]
-
[tex]6L + 4S = 164[/tex]
--------------------
[tex]2L = 37[/tex]
L = 18.5 Kg
Putting value of L in equation (1):
[tex]8 \times 18.5 + 4S = 201\\\Rightarrow 148 + 4S = 201\\\Rightarrow 4S = 201 - 148\\\Rightarrow 4S = 53\\\Rightarrow S = 13.25\ kg[/tex]
So, the answer is:
Weight of Large Box = 18.5 kg
Weight of Large Box = 13.25 kg
