Mopeds (small motorcycles with an engine capacity below 50 cm^3) are very popular in Europe because of their mobility, ease of operation, and low cost. Suppose the maximum speed of a moped is normally distributed with mean value 46.8 km/h and standard deviation 1.75 km/h. Consider randomly selecting a single such moped.

Required:
a. What is the probability that maximum speed is at most 49 km/h?
b. What is the probability that maximum speed is at least 48 km/h?
c. What is the probability that maximum speed differs from the mean value by at most 2.5 standard deviations?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.1038 = 10.38% probability that maximum speed is at most 49 km/h

b) 0.2451 = 24.51% probability that maximum speed is at least 48 km/h

c) 0.9876 = 98.76% probability that maximum speed differs from the mean value by at most 2.5 standard deviations

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean value 46.8 km/h and standard deviation 1.75 km/h.

This means that [tex]\mu = 46.8, \sigma = 1.75[/tex]

a. What is the probability that maximum speed is at most 49 km/h?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 49. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{49 - 46.8}{1.75}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.26[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.26[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.8962

1 - 0.8962 = 0.1038

0.1038 = 10.38% probability that maximum speed is at most 49 km/h.

b. What is the probability that maximum speed is at least 48 km/h?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 48. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{48 - 46.8}{1.75}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.69[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.69[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.7549

1 - 0.7549 = 0.2451

0.2451 = 24.51% probability that maximum speed is at least 48 km/h.

c. What is the probability that maximum speed differs from the mean value by at most 2.5 standard deviations?

Zscores between Z = -2.5 and Z = 2.5, which is the pvalue of Z = 2.5 subtracted by the pvalue of Z = -2.5

Z = 2.5 has a pvalue of 0.9938

Z = -2.5 has a pvalue of 0.0062

0.9938 - 0.0062 = 0.9876

0.9876 = 98.76% probability that maximum speed differs from the mean value by at most 2.5 standard deviations

A student records the repair cost for 22 randomly selected dryers. A sample mean of $98.78 and standard deviation of $15.49 are subsequently computed. Determine the 95% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the dryers. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 2 : Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The critical value that should be used is T = 2.0796.

The 95% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the dryers is between $91.912 and $105.648.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 22 - 1 = 21

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 21 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.0796, which is the critical value that should be used.

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.0796\frac{15.49}{\sqrt{22}} = 6.868[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 98.78 - 6.868 = $91.912

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 98.78 + 6.868 = $105.648

The 95% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the dryers is between $91.912 and $105.648.

Step-by-step explanation:

alrighty right, more unit rates, so we have to get that 8 down to 1. How are we gonna do that? By dividing it by 8. And if we divide one side by 8, we also have to divide the other side:

8 ÷ 8 = 1

94 ÷ 8 = 11.75

So 94 hours to 8 days in lowest terms is 11.75 hours to 1 day

What Are the missing numbers?

Answers

Answer:

[tex] y = -\frac{3}{2}x + 12 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing numbers represent the slope/rate of change (m) and y-intercept (b) of the table of values given.

✔️Let's find slope (m) using any two given pairs of values, say (2, 9) and (4, 6):

Slope (m) = change in y/change in x

= (6 - 9)/(4 - 2)

= -3/2

m = -³/2

✔️Find b by substituting (x, y) = (2, 9), and m = -³/2 into y = mx + b

Thus,

9 = -³/2(2) + b

9 = -3 + b

9 + 3 = b

b = 12

The missing numbers are -³/2 and 12.

Which will give us:

[tex] y = -\frac{3}{2}x + 12 [/tex]

Find [tex]a_{1}[/tex] in a geometric series for which [tex]S_{n}[/tex] = 189, r = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex], and [tex]a_{n}[/tex] = 3.

Answers

Answer:

[tex] \displaystyle a_{1} = 108[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

the sum,common difference and nth term of a geometric sequence

we want to figure out the first term

recall geometric sequence

[tex] \displaystyle S_{ \text{n}} = \frac{ a_{1}(1 - {r}^{n} )}{1 - r} [/tex]

we are given that

[tex]S_n=189[/tex][tex]r=\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex][tex]n=3[/tex]

thus substitute:

[tex] \displaystyle 189= \frac{ a_{1}(1 - {( \frac{1}{2} )}^{3} )}{1 - \frac{1}{2} } [/tex]

to figure out [tex]a_1[/tex] we need to figure out the equation

simplify denominator:

[tex] \displaystyle \frac{ a_{1}(1 - {( \frac{1}{2} )}^{3} )}{ \dfrac{1}{2} } = 189[/tex]

simplify square:

[tex] \displaystyle \frac{ a_{1}(1 - {( \frac{1}{8} )}^{} )}{ \dfrac{1}{2} } = 189[/tex]

simplify substraction:

[tex] \displaystyle \frac{ a_{1} (\frac{7}{8} )}{ \frac{1}{2} } = 189[/tex]

simplify complex fraction:

[tex] \displaystyle a_{1} (\frac{7}{8} ) \div { \frac{1}{2} } = 189[/tex]

calculate reciprocal:

[tex] \displaystyle a_{1} \frac{7}{8} \times 2 = 189[/tex]

reduce fraction:

[tex] \displaystyle a_{1} \frac{7}{4} \ = 189[/tex]

multiply both sides by 4/7:

[tex] \displaystyle a_{1} \frac{7}{4} \times \frac{4}{7} \ = 189 \times \frac{4}{7} [/tex]

reduce fraction:

[tex] \displaystyle a_{1} = 27\times 4[/tex]

simplify multiplication:

[tex] \displaystyle a_{1} = 108[/tex]

hence,

[tex] \displaystyle a_{1} = 108[/tex]

The mean number of points in 1977 was 1189 points with standard deviation of 397 points. With a roughly normal distribution, what percent of performances would fall between 395 and 1983 points?
Your answer
A. 100%
B. 68%
C. 95%
D.99.7%

Answers

Answer:

C. 95%

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean of 1189 points, standard deviation of 397 points.

Percentage between 395 and 1983 points?

395 = 1189 - 2*397

1983 = 1189 + 2*397

So within 2 standard deviations of the mean, which by the Empirical Rule is approximately 95%, and the answer is option C.

Your marketing team has conducted two focus group sessions to evaluate a new product design. The first focus group consisted of teenagers and resulted in four out of five liking the new product. The second group was made up of parents of young children. Only one out of five people in this group said they liked the same new product as the teens. With 90% confidence (Z = 1.64), can you say that there is a difference between the views of these two populations? Please show your calculations, use 2 decimal places in your calculation answer, and justify your answer regarding differences.

Answers

Answer:

Since the calculated Z falls in the critical region therefore the null hypothesis is rejected and concluded that there is a difference between the views of these two populations.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Formulate the hypotheses:

H0 : p1=p2

Ha: p1 ≠ p2

2) The significance level is chosen at ∝= 0.1  

3) The critical region is Z∝/2 ≥ ± 1.645

4) The test statistic under H0 is

Z = p1^- p2^/ √p^q^( 1/n1 + 1/n2)

p1^= proportion of of teenagers liking the new product.

p2^ = proportion of of parents of young children liking the new product.

p1^= 4/5

p2^= 1/5

p^= 5(0.8) + 5(0.2)/5+5= 4+1/10= 0.5

q^= 0.5

Thus

Z= p1^- p2^/ √p^q^( 1/n1 + 1/n2)

z= 0.8-0.2/√0.5*0.5( 1/5 + 1/5)

z= 0.6/ 0.316227

z= 1.897

5) Conclusion:

Since the calculated Z falls in the critical region therefore the null hypothesis is rejected and concluded that there is a difference between the views of these two populations.
