Answer:
a. The population of interest is:
xi. All workers in the U.S. who have participated in the job-sharing program
b. The variable that is being measured is:
viii. The percentage of the 1035 major firms surveyed which offer job-sharing to their employees
c. The sample selected is:
vi. The 1,035 firms surveyed
d. The parameter is:
v. Proportion of employees who are working mothers
e. The statistic is:
ix. 25% (stated as 23%)
Step-by-step explanation:
The parameter of a population is a fixed value calculated from every individual in the population. It is different from a statistic, which is computed from a sample of the population. The statistic is meant to approximate a population parameter.
You can use the definition of parameter and statistic to distinguish between the two.
The answers to the given sections are:
a. The population of interest is
xi. All workers in the U.S. who have participated in he job-sharing program
b. The variable measured is
viii. The percentage of the 1035 major firms surveyed which o↵er job-sharing to their employees
c. The sample selected is
vi. The 1,035 firms surveyed
Since this was the collection which was selected for study and thus, called sample from the population as all major US firms.
d. The parameter is
vii. The percentage of all U.S. major firms which o↵er job-sharing to their employees
e. The statistic is
ix. 25% (in question it is written 23% which might be mistakenly written, or that it is mistakenly written in option given)
What is a population and parameter?The entire group or system which we are taking in consideration is population. Nothing bigger than it lies there in consideration.
Ex: If we're taking about health problem in a country, then the whole country people form a population.
If we're taking about numbers on a 6 face die, then those 6 numbers on 6 faces form a population.
Those numbers who summarize information about population are called parameter.
What is sample and statistic?A portion of population taken and analyzed to predict information about population is called sample of that population.
Ex: When someone surveys a group, then he/she surveys a portion and not whole population in general.
Those numbers who summarize information about sample are called statistic.
(Statistic is different than statistics)
Using the above definitions to find the answersa. The population of interest is
xi. All workers in the U.S. who have participated in he job-sharing program
b. The variable measured is
viii. The percentage of the 1035 major firms surveyed which o↵er job-sharing to their employees

Working together, two ants named Aran and Beatrice can build an ant hill in 10 hours. Aran and Charlie can build the ant hill in 12 hours. Beatrice and Charlie can build the ant hill in 15 hours. How long, in hours, will it take to build the ant hill if Aran, Beatrice, and Charlie work together?
Answer:
They complete the hill in 8 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Equations:
Let's call the variables:
Aran can make build the ant hill in A hours
Beatrice can make build the ant hill in B hours
Charlie can make build the ant hill in C hours
In one hour, Aran makes 1/A of the ant hill.
In one hour, Beatrice makes 1/B of the ant hill.
In one hour, Charlie makes 1/C of the ant hill.
Aran and Beatrice build it in 10 hours, thus:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{A}+\frac{1}{B}=\frac{1}{10}\qquad\qquad[1][/tex]
Similarly:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{A}+\frac{1}{C}=\frac{1}{12}\qquad\qquad[2][/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{B}+\frac{1}{C}=\frac{1}{15}\qquad\qquad[3][/tex]
We need to find the time taken for the three ants to build the anthill:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{A}+\frac{1}{B}+\frac{1}{C}=[/tex]
Adding [1], [2], and [3]:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{2}{A}+\frac{2}{B}+\frac{2}{C}=\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{15}[/tex]
Adding the fractions (LCM=60):
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{2}{A}+\frac{2}{B}+\frac{2}{C}=\frac{6}{60}+\frac{5}{60}+\frac{4}{60}[/tex]
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{2}{A}+\frac{2}{B}+\frac{2}{C}=\frac{6+5+4}{60}=\frac{15}{60}=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
Dividing by 2:
[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{A}+\frac{1}{B}+\frac{1}{C}=\frac{1}{8}[/tex]
All ants together make 1/8 of the hill, thus they complete the hill in 8 hours
If 3+a=4-b and 4+b=7+a, what is 3-a?
Step-by-step explanation:
3+a=4-b
4+b=7+a
a=1-b
4+b=7+1-b
2b=4
b=2
a=1-2= -1
3-a= 3- -1= 3+1=4
3-a=4
Answer:
The answer is 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you have to form simultaneous equations :
[tex]3 + a = 4 - b[/tex]
[tex]a + b = 1 - - - (1)[/tex]
[tex]4 + b = 7 + a[/tex]
[tex]a - b = - 3 - - - (2)[/tex]
Next, you have to solve it :
[tex](1) - (2)[/tex]
[tex]a + b - (a - b) = 1 - ( - 3)[/tex]
[tex]2b = 4[/tex]
[tex]b = 2[/tex]
[tex]sub \: \: b \: = 2 \: \: into \: \: (1)[/tex]
[tex]a + 2 = 1[/tex]
[tex]a = 1 - 2[/tex]
[tex]a = - 1[/tex]
Lastly, you have to substitute a-value into the expression :
[tex]3 - a = 3 - ( - 1) = 4[/tex]

find c and d. show your work.
9514 1404 393
Answer:
c = 6√2
d = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The sides of any isosceles triangle (opposite the congruent angles) are congruent. Hence c = 6√2.
The hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is √2 times the side length, so ...
d = c√2 = (6√2)(√2) = 6·2
d = 12
__
If you don't believe that, you can always use the Pythagorean theorem to find d:
d^2 = (6√2)^2 +c^2
d^2 = 72 +72 . . . . . . . . . since c=6√2
d = √144
d = 12
The lifetimes of a certain brand of light bulbs are known to be normally dsitributed with a mean of 1700 hours and standard deviation of 400 hours. A random sample of 64 of these light bulbs is taken. The probability is 0.20 that the sample mean lifetime is more than how many hours?
A. 1652.
B. 1725.
C. 1752.
D. 1670.
Answer:
1742 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
Normal probability distribution
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.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
Single light:
Mean of 1700 hours and standard deviation of 400 hours, which means that [tex]\mu = 1700, \sigma = 400[/tex]
Sample of 64:
This means that [tex]n = 64, s = \frac{400}{\sqrt{64}} = 50[/tex]
The probability is 0.20 that the sample mean lifetime is more than how many hours?
This is the 100 - 20 = 80th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.8. So X when Z = 0.84
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]0.84 = \frac{X - 1700}{50}[/tex]
[tex]X - 1700 = 50*0.84[/tex]
[tex]X = 1700 + 50*0.84[/tex]
[tex]X = 1742[/tex]

solve 5(x-1)^1/3 = 20
Answer:
x = 65
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the equation, we write it in radical form:
[tex]5\, \sqrt[3]{x-1} = 20[/tex]
Then, we divide both sides by 5 to isolate the root:
[tex]\sqrt[3]{x-1} = \frac{20}{5} \\\sqrt[3]{x-1} =4[/tex]
and next, we raise both sides of the equation to the power 3 so as to free the expression in x from the root:
[tex]x-1=4^3\\x-1=64[/tex]
now we add 1 to both sides to isolate x:
x = 65
Find two numbers whose sum is 8 and whose product is 17
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y = 8
y = 8-x
xy = 17
x(8-x) = 17
8x - x² = 17
x² - 8x + 17 = 0
Quadratic formula
x = [8 ± √(8² – 4·1·17)] / [2·1]
= [8 ± √(-4)] / 2
= [8 ± 2i] /2
= 4±i
x = 4+i
y = 4-i
A quadratic equation is written in the form of ax²+bx+c. The two numbers whose sum is 8 and whose product is 17 are (4+i) and (4-i).
What is a quadratic equation?A quadratic equation is an equation whose leading coefficient is of second degree also the equation has only one unknown while it has 3 unknown numbers. It is written in the form of ax²+bx+c.
Let the first number be 'a' and the second number be 'b'. Therefore, the sum of the two numbers is,
a+b=8
The product of the two numbers is,
ab=17
b=17/a
now, the equation can be written as,
a+b=8
a+(17/a)=8
a² + 17 = 8a
a²-8a+17=0
a = 4±i
Hence, the two numbers whose sum is 8 and whose product is 17 are (4+i) and (4-i).
