Pet Place sells pet food and supplies including a popular bailed hay for horses. When the stock of this hay drops to 20 bails, a replenishment order is placed. The store manager is concerned that sales are being lost due to stock outs while waiting for a replenishment order. It has been previously determined that demand during the lead-time is normally distributed with a mean of 15 bails and a standard deviation of 6 bails. The manager would like to know the probability of a stockout during replenishment lead-time. In other words, what is the probability that demand during lead-time will exceed 20 bails
Answer:
The probability that demand during lead-time will exceed 20 bails is 0.2033.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that it has been previously determined that demand during the lead-time is normally distributed with a mean of 15 bails and a standard deviation of 6 bails.
Let X = demand during the lead-time
So, X ~ Normal([tex]\mu=15, \sigma^{2} = 6^{2}[/tex])
The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;
Z = [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\mu=[/tex] population mean demand = 15 bails
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = 6 bails
Now, the probability that demand during lead-time will exceed 20 bails is given by = P(X > 20 bails)
P(X > 20 bails) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] > [tex]\frac{20-15}{6}[/tex] ) = P(Z > 0.83) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 0.83)
= 1 - 0.7967 = 0.2033

Answer:
A,D and E
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a function
[tex]f(x)=49(\frac{1}{7})^x[/tex]
The given function is exponential function .
The exponential function is defined for all real values of x.
Therefore, domain of f=Set of all real numbers
Substitute x=0
[tex]y=f(0)=49>0[/tex]
Range of f is greater than 0.
x=1
[tex]y(1)=\frac{49}{7}[/tex]
x=2
[tex]y=49(\frac{1}{7})^2=\frac{1}{7}y(1)[/tex]
As x increases by 1, each value of y is one-seventh of the previous y-value.
Therefore, option A,D and E are true.

Find the equation of the line.
Use exact numbers.
y=
Answer:
y = 2x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to find the slope using two points
(-2,0) and (0,4)
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (4-0)/(0--2)
= 4/+2
= 2
we have the y intercept which is 4
Using the slope intercept form of the line
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = 2x+4

What is the solution of √1-3x = x+3 ?
Answer:
{-1, -8}
Step-by-step explanation:
Please enclose "1 - 3x" inside parentheses so the reader will know that you want the square root of all of "1 - 3x".
Squaring both sides of the given equation, we get:
1 - 3x = x^2 + 6x + 9, or x^2 + 6x + 8 + 3x, or
x^2 + 9x + 8 = 0. Factoring, we get: (x + 8)(x + 1) = 0, so that the solutions are {-1, -8}.
Answer:
I hope the given equation is :
{-1, -8}
First step to solve this equation to remove square root from the left side. So, take square on each sides of the equation. Therefore,
1 - 3x = (x + 3)²
1 - 3x = (x + 3)*(x + 3) Since a² = a * a
1 - 3x = x² + 3x + 3x + 3² By multiplication.
1 - 3x = x² + 6x + 9 Combine the like terms.
x² + 6x + 9 - 1 + 3x = 0 Subtract 1 and add 3x from each sides of equation
x² + 9x + 8 = 0 Combine the like terms.
Next step is to factor the trinomial to solve the above equation for x.
For that break downn the constant 8 into two multiples so that the addition of the multiples will result the coefficient of x = 9.
So, 8 = 1 * 8
Addition of 1 and 8 will give 9. So, next step is to replace 9x with 1x + 8x. So,
x² + 1x + 8x + 8 = 0
(x² + 1x) + (8x + 8) = 0 Group the terms.
x ( x + 1) + 8 (x + 1 ) = 0 Take out the common factor from each group.
(x +1 ) ( x + 8 ) = 0 Take out the common factor (x + 1).
So, x + 1 = 0 and x + 8 = 0 Set up each factor equal to 0.
Hence, x = -1 and - 8.
Next step is to plug in -1 and -8 in the original equation to cross check the solutions.
For x = -1,
Simplify each sides separately.
2 = 2
2 = 2 is correct. So, x = -1 satisfy the equation.
Hence, x = -1 is the real solution of the given equation.
Similarly let's plug in x = -8 now. So,
Simplify each sides separately.
5 = 2
5 = 2 is not true. So, x = -8 is the extraneous solution.
Therefore, the only solution is x = -1.
Hence, the correct choice is C.
Hope this helps you!

Consider the set of sequences of seven letters chosen from W and L. We may think of these sequences as representing the outcomes of a match of seven games, where W means the first team wins the game and L means the second team wins the game. The match is won by the first team to win four games (thus, some games may never get played, but we need to include their hypothetical outcomes in the points in order that we have a probability space of equally likely points).A. What is the probability that a team will win the match, given that it has won the first game?B. What is the probability that a team will win the match, given that it has won the first two games? C. What is the probability that a team will win the match, given that it has won two out of the first three games?
Answer:
a) Probability that a team will win the match given that it has won the first game = 0.66
b) Probability that a team will win the match given that it has won the first two games= 0.81
c) Probability that a team will win the match, given that it has won two out of the first three games = 0.69
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a total of seven games to be played. Therefore, W and L consists of 2⁷ equi-probable sample points
a) Since one game has already been won by the team, there are 2⁶ = 64 sample points left. If the team wins three or more matches, it has won.
Number of ways of winning the three or more matches left = [tex]6C3 + 6C4 + 6C5 + 6C6[/tex]
= 20 + 15 + 6 + 1 = 42
P( a team will win the match given that it has won the first game) = 42/64 = 0.66
b) Since two games have already been won by the team, there are 2⁵ = 32 sample points left. If the team wins two or more matches, it has won.
Number of ways of winning the three or more matches left = [tex]5C2 + 5C3 + 5C4 + 5C5[/tex] = 10 + 10 + 5 +1 = 26
P( a team will win the match given that it has won the first two games) = 26/32 = 0.81
c) Probability that a team will win the match, given that it has won two out of the first three games
They have played 3 games out of 7, this means that there are 4 more games to play. The sample points remain 2⁴ = 16
They have won 2 games already, it means they have two or more games to win.
Number of ways of winning the three or more matches left = [tex]4C2 + 4C3 + 4C4[/tex] = 6 + 4 + 1 = 11
Probability that a team will win the match, given that it has won two out of the first three games = 11/16
Probability that a team will win the match, given that it has won two out of the first three games = 0.69
Find f(x) - g(x) when f(x) = 2x^2 - 4x g(x) = x^2 + 6x
3x^2
x^2 + 2x
x^2 - 10x
3x^2 + 2x
Answer:
x^2 - 10x
Step-by-step explanation:
2x^2 - 4x - x^2 +6x
You subtract x^2 from 2x^2 and you get x^2
Then you add 6x and 4x together and get 10x
So then you have x^2 - 10x

Given a normal distribution with (mean) μ= 50 and (standard deviation) σ = 4, what is the probability that:__________.
a) x>43
b) x<42
c) x>57.5
d) 42
e) x<40 or x>55
f) 5% of the values are less than what X value?
g) 60% of the values are between what two X values (symmetrically distributed around the mean)?
h) 85% of the values will be above what X value?
Answer:
a) P(x > 43) = 0.9599
b) P(x < 42) = 0.0228
c) P(x > 57.5) = 0.03
d) P(x = 42) = 0.
e) P(x<40 or x>55) = 0.1118
f) 43.42
g) Between 46.64 and 53.36.
h) Above 45.852.
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 = 50, \sigma = 4[/tex]
a) x>43
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 43. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{43 - 50}{4}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.75[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.75[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0401
1 - 0.0401 = 0.9599
P(x > 43) = 0.9599
b) x<42
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 42.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{42 - 50}{4}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0228
P(x < 42) = 0.0228
c) x>57.5
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 57.5. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{57.5 - 50}{4}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.88[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.88[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.97
1 - 0.97 = 0.03
P(x > 57.5) = 0.03
d) P(x = 42)
In the normal distribution, the probability of an exact value is 0. So
P(x = 42) = 0.
e) x<40 or x>55
x < 40 is the pvalue of Z when X = 40. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{40 - 50}{4}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.5[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.5[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0062
x > 55 is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 55. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{55 - 50}{4}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.25[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.25[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.8944
1 - 0.8944 = 0.1056
0.0062 + 0.1056 = 0.1118
P(x<40 or x>55) = 0.1118
f) 5% of the values are less than what X value?
X is the 5th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.05, so X when Z = -1.645.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]-1.645 = \frac{X - 50}{4}[/tex]
[tex]X - 50 = -1.645*4[/tex]
[tex]X = 43.42[/tex]
43.42 is the answer.
g) 60% of the values are between what two X values (symmetrically distributed around the mean)?
Between the 50 - (60/2) = 20th percentile and the 50 + (60/2) = 80th percentile.
20th percentile:
X when Z has a pvalue of 0.2. So X when Z = -0.84.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]-0.84 = \frac{X - 50}{4}[/tex]
[tex]X - 50 = -0.84*4[/tex]
[tex]X = 46.64[/tex]
80th percentile:
X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So X when Z = 0.84.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]0.84 = \frac{X - 50}{4}[/tex]
[tex]X - 50 = 0.84*4[/tex]
[tex]X = 53.36[/tex]
Between 46.64 and 53.36.
h) 85% of the values will be above what X value?
Above the 100 - 85 = 15th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.15. So X when Z = -1.037.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]-1.037 = \frac{X - 50}{4}[/tex]
[tex]X - 50 = -1.037*4[/tex]
[tex]X = 45.852[/tex]
Above 45.852.
Let the sample space be
S = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10.
Suppose the outcomes are equally likely. Compute the probability of the event E = 1, 2.
Answer:
probability of the event E = 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given;
Sample space, S = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10},
Number of terms in sample S is;
n(S) = 10
We are given the event; E = {1, 2}
Thus, number of terms in event E is;
n(E) = 2
Now, Probability = favorable outcomes/total outcomes
Thus, the probability of the event E is;
P(E) = n(E)/n(S)
P(E) = 2/10
P(E) = 1/5

A study conducted at a certain college shows that "53%" of the school's graduates find a job in their chosen field within a year after graduation. Find the probability that among 6 randomly selected graduates, at least one finds a job in his or her chosen field within a year of graduating. 0.989 0.978 0.927 0.167 0.530
Answer:
0.989
Step-by-step explanation:
For each graduate, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they find a job in their chosen field within a year after graduation, or they do not. The probability of a graduate finding a job is independent of other graduates. So we 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.
A study conducted at a certain college shows that "53%" of the school's graduates find a job in their chosen field within a year after graduation.
This means that [tex]p = 0.53[/tex]
6 randomly selected graduates
This means that [tex]n = 6[/tex]
Probability that at least one finds a job in his or her chosen field within a year of graduating:
Either none find a job, or at least one does. The sum of the probabilities of these outcomes is 1. So
[tex]P(X = 0) + P(X \geq 1) = 1[/tex]
We want [tex]P(X \geq 1)[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{6,0}.(0.53)^{0}.(0.47)^{6} = 0.011[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.011 = 0.989[/tex]

4. The dimensions of a triangular pyramid are shown below. The height of
the pyramid is 6 inches. What is the volume in cubic inches?
Answer:
5in³Step-by-step explanation:
The question is in complete. Here is the complete question.
"The dimensions of a triangular pyramid are shown below. The height of
the pyramid is 6 inches. What is the volume in cubic inches?
Base of triangle = 1in
height of triangle = 5in"
Given the dimension of the triangular base of base 1 inch and height 5inches with the height of the pyramid to be 6inches, the volume of the triangular pyramid is expressed as [tex]V = \frac{1}{3}BH[/tex] where;\
B = Base area
H = Height of the pyramid
Base area B = area of the triangular base = [tex]\frac{1}{2}bh[/tex]
b = base of the triangle
h = height of the triangle
B = [tex]\frac{1}{2} * 5 * 1\\[/tex]
[tex]B = 2.5in^{2}[/tex]
Since H = 6inches
Volume of the triangular pyramid = [tex]\frac{1}{3} * 2.5 * 6\\[/tex]
[tex]V = 2.5*2\\V =5in^{3}[/tex]
A basketball coach is looking over the possessions per game during last season. Assume that the possessions per game follows an unknown distribution with a mean of 56 points and a standard deviation of 12 points. The basketball coach believes it is unusual to score less than 50 points per game. To test this, she randomly selects 36 games. Use a calculator to find the probability that the sample mean is less than 50 points. Round your answer to three decimal places if necessary.
Answer:
The probability that the sample mean is less than 50 points = 0.002
Step-by-step explanation:
Step(i):-
Given mean of the normal distribution = 56 points
Given standard deviation of the normal distribution = 12 points
Random sample size 'n' = 36 games
Step(ii):-
Let x⁻ be the random variable of normal distribution
Let x⁻ = 50
[tex]Z = \frac{x^{-}-mean }{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{50-56 }{\frac{12}{\sqrt{36} } }= -3[/tex]
The probability that the sample mean is less than 50 points
P( x⁻≤ 50) = P( Z≤-3)
= 0.5 - P(-3 <z<0)
= 0.5 -P(0<z<3)
= 0.5 - 0.498
= 0.002
Final answer:-
The probability that the sample mean is less than 50 points = 0.002
Answer:
56
2
.001
Step-by-step explanation:
The Central Limit Theorem for Means states that the mean of any sampling distribution of the means is equal to the mean of the population distribution. The standard deviation is equal to the standard deviation of the population divided by the square root of the sample size. So, the mean of this sampling distribution of the means with sample size 36 is 56 points and the standard deviation is 1236√=2 points. The z-score for 50 using the formula z=x¯¯¯−μσ is −3.
z 0.00 0.01 0.02 0.03 0.04 0.05 0.06 0.07 0.08 0.09
-3.0 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001 0.001
-2.9 0.002 0.002 0.002 0.002 0.002 0.002 0.002 0.001 0.001 0.001
-2.8 0.003 0.002 0.002 0.002 0.002 0.002 0.002 0.002 0.002 0.002
-2.7 0.003 0.003 0.003 0.003 0.003 0.003 0.003 0.003 0.003 0.003
-2.6 0.005 0.005 0.004 0.004 0.004 0.004 0.004 0.004 0.004 0.004
-2.5 0.006 0.006 0.006 0.006 0.006 0.005 0.005 0.005 0.005 0.005
Using the Standard Normal Table, the area to the left of −3 is approximately 0.001. Therefore, the probability that the sample mean will be less than 50 points is approximately 0.001.
Insurance companies track life expectancy information to assist in determining the cost of life insurance policies. AIB Insurance randomly sampled 100 recently paid policies and determined the average age of clients in this sample to be 77.7 years with a standard deviation of 3.6. The 90% confidence interval for the true mean age of its life insurance policy holders is
A. (76.87, 80.33)
B. (72.5, 82.9)
C. (77.1, 78.3)
D. (74.1, 81.3)
E. (74.5, 80)
Answer:
[tex]77.7-1.66\frac{3.6}{\sqrt{100}} =77.102[/tex]
[tex]77.7+1.66\frac{3.6}{\sqrt{100}} =78.30[/tex]
And the best option would be:
C. (77.1, 78.3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Information given
[tex]\bar X=77.7[/tex] represent the sample mean
[tex]\mu[/tex] population mean (variable of interest)
s=3.6 represent the sample standard deviation
n=100 represent the sample size
Confidence interval
The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:
[tex]\bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2}\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex] (1)
The degrees of freedom are given by:
[tex]df=n-1=100-1=99[/tex]
Since the Confidence is 0.90 or 90%, the significance would be [tex]\alpha=0.1[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2 =0.05[/tex], and the critical value for this case would be [tex]t_{\alpha/2}=1.66[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex]77.7-1.66\frac{3.6}{\sqrt{100}} =77.10[/tex]
[tex]77.7+1.66\frac{3.6}{\sqrt{100}} =78.30[/tex]
And the best option would be:
C. (77.1, 78.3)
