For the above data set, you are interested to determine the "spread" of the data.

Would you employ calculations for the sample standard deviation, or population standard deviation for this data set?
You are interested in the heights of students at a particular middle school. Your data set represents the heights of all students in the middle school with 600 students.

Select the correct answer below:

a. Use calculations for sample standard deviation.
b. Use calculations for population standard deviation.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Part A

The population standard deviation is suitable for this dataset as it isnt given whether its a sample or a population distribution and it sure doesn't seem like the findings from such a dataset is to be generalized for some population distribution.

Part B

This is outrightly a population distribution of all the students in the middle school, So, the spread of the height of all students about a mean is best indicated using the population standard deviation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The spread of a dataset is usually the measure of dispersion, a measure of the way the distribution spreads out from a particular mean value.

The problem of which type of standard deviation one should calculate usually arises a lot in Statistics. As the name sounds, population standard deviation usually uses all of the distribution to compute while the sample standard deviation uses the data from the sample distribution

The best advice on when to use the population stamdard deviation formula is that

(1) we have the entire population or

(2) we have a sample of a larger population, but we are only interested in this sample and do not wish to generalize the statistical findings to the population.

The sample standard deviation formula is used when one has a sample of a larger population, one is not only interested in this sample and one wishes to generalize the findings to the population.

The population standard deviation is given as

σ = √[Σ(x - xbar)²/N]

Sample standard deviation

σ = √{[Σ(x - xbar)²]/N-1)}

The only difference is the N and (N-1).

So, for the questions presented,

Part A.

Here, it is evident that the findings for this dataset in the question is just for this dataset, hence,the population standard deviation is suitable for this dataset.

Part B

This is outrightly a population distribution of all the students in the middle school, So, the spread of the height of all students about a mean is best indicated using the population standard deviation.

Q.04: (11 points) Given the polar curve r = e θ , where 0 ≤ θ ≤ 2π. Find points on the curve in the form (r, θ) where there is a horizontal or vertical tangent line. g

Answers

I suppose the curve is [tex]r(\theta)=e^\theta[/tex].

Tangent lines to the curve have slope [tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex]; use the chain rule to get this in polar coordinates.

[tex]\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{dy}{d\theta}\dfrac{d\theta}{dx}=\dfrac{\frac{dy}{d\theta}}{\frac{dx}{d\theta}}[/tex]

We have

[tex]y(\theta)=r(\theta)\sin\theta\implies\dfrac{dy}{d\theta}=\dfrac{dr}{d\theta}\sin\theta+r(\theta)\cos\theta[/tex]

[tex]x(\theta)=r(\theta)\cos\theta\implies\dfrac{dx}{d\theta}=\dfrac{dr}{d\theta}\cos\theta-r(\theta)\sin\theta[/tex]

[tex]r(\theta)=e^\theta\implies\dfrac{dr}{d\theta}=e^\theta[/tex]

[tex]\implies\dfrac{dy}{dx}=\dfrac{e^\theta\sin\theta+e^\theta\cos\theta}{e^\theta\cos\theta-e^\theta\sin\theta}=\dfrac{\sin\theta+\cos\theta}{\cos\theta-\sin\theta}[/tex]

The tangent line is horizontal when the slope is 0, which happens wherever the numerator vanishes:

[tex]\sin\theta+\cos\theta=0\implies\sin\theta=-\cos\theta\implies\tan\theta=-1[/tex]

[tex]\implies\theta=\boxed{-\dfrac\pi4+n\pi}[/tex]

(where [tex]n[/tex] is any integer)

The tangent line is vertical when the slope is infinite or undefined, which happens when the denominator is 0:

[tex]\cos\theta-\sin\theta=0\implies\sin\theta=\cos\theta\implies\tan\theta=1[/tex]

[tex]\implies\theta=\boxed{\dfrac\pi4+n\pi}[/tex]

Ten different numbers are written on pieces of paper and thrown into a hat. The sum of all the numbers is 205. What is the probability of selecting four numbers that have a sum greater than 82

Answers

Answer:

The probability is 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

a) There are ten pieces of paper with ten numbers

Probability of selecting four pieces of paper = 4/10 or 40%

Probability that the four numbers selected will have a sum greater than 82 = 82/205 = 40%

Therefore, the probability of selecting four numbers that have a sum greater than 82 out of ten numbers totalling 205 is 40%.

b) Probability is the ratio of the number of outcomes favourable for the event to the total number of possible outcomes.   In other words, it is a measure of the likelihood of an event (or measure of chance).

The highway fuel economy of a 2016 Lexus RX 350 FWD 6-cylinder 3.5-L automatic 5-speed using premium fuel is a normally distributed random variable with a mean of μ = 26.50 mpg and a standard deviation of σ = 3.25 mpg.

Required:
a. What is the standard error of X and the mean from a random sample of 25 fill-ups by one driver?
b. Within what interval would you expect the sample mean to fall, with 98 percent probability?

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.65 mpg

b) Between 24.99 mpg and 28.01 mpg.

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, which is also called standard error, [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.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 26.50, \sigma = 3.25, n = 25, s = \frac{3.25}{\sqrt{25}} = 0.65[/tex]

a. What is the standard error of X and the mean from a random sample of 25 fill-ups by one driver?

s = 0.65 mpg

b. Within what interval would you expect the sample mean to fall, with 98 percent probability?

From the: 50 - (98/2) = 1st percentile

To the: 50 + (98/2) = 99th percentile

1st percentile:

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.01. So X when Z = -2.327.

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]-2.327 = \frac{X - 26.50}{0.65}[/tex]

[tex]X - 26.50 = -2.327*0.65[/tex]

[tex]X = 24.99[/tex]

99th percentile:

X when Z has a pvalue of 0.99. So X when Z = 2.327.

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

[tex]2.327 = \frac{X - 26.50}{0.65}[/tex]

[tex]X - 26.50 = 2.327*0.65[/tex]

[tex]X = 28.01[/tex]

Between 24.99 mpg and 28.01 mpg.

Complete Question

Suppose the weight of Chipotle burritos follows a normal distribution with mean of 450 grams, and variance of 100 grams2 . Define a random variable to be the weight of a randomly chosen burrito.

(a) What is the probability that a Chipotle burrito weighs less than 445 grams? (3 points)

(b) 20% of Chipotle burritos weigh more than what weight

Answer:

a

   [tex]P(X < 445 )= 0.3085[/tex]

b

  [tex]k = 458.42[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From question we are told that

     The population mean is [tex]\mu = 450 \ g[/tex]

      The variance is [tex]var = 100 \ g^2[/tex]

      The  consider weight is  [tex]x = 445 \ g[/tex]

The  standard deviation is mathematically represented as

     [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{var}[/tex]

substituting values

     [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{ 100}[/tex]

     [tex]\sigma = 10[/tex]

Given that weight of Chipotle burritos follows a normal distribution the  the probability that a Chipotle burrito weighs less than x grams is mathematically represented as

        [tex]P(X < x ) = P ( \frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } < \frac{x - \mu }{\sigma } )[/tex]

Where  [tex]\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma }[/tex] is  equal to z (the standardized values of the random number X )

So

     [tex]P(X < x ) = P (Z < \frac{x - \mu }{\sigma } )[/tex]

substituting values

     [tex]P(X < 445 ) = P (Z < \frac{445 - 450 }{10} )[/tex]

      [tex]P(X < 445 ) = P (Z <-0.5 )[/tex]

Now from the normal distribution table  the value for [tex]P (Z <-0.5 )[/tex]  is  

      [tex]P(X < 445 ) = P (Z <-0.5 ) = 0.3085[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(X < 445 )= 0.3085[/tex]

Let the  probability  of the Chipotle burritos weighting more that k be 20% so  

       [tex]P(X > k ) = P ( \frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } > \frac{k - \mu }{\sigma } ) = 0.2[/tex]

=>    [tex]P (Z> \frac{k - \mu }{\sigma } ) = 0.2[/tex]

=>    [tex]P (Z> \frac{k - 450}{10 } ) = 0.2[/tex]

From the normal distribution table the value of z  for  [tex]P (Z> \frac{k - \mu }{\sigma } ) = 0.2[/tex] is  

    [tex]z = 0.8416[/tex]

=>   [tex]\frac{k - 450}{10 } = 0.8416[/tex]

=>   [tex]k = 458.42[/tex]

       

n a nature conservatory, the ratio of butterflies to total number of flying insects is 36 to 100. There are 450 total flying insects. (a) Create a table for how many butterflies there are for 1, 50, and 100 flying insects. Show your work. (b) How many butterflies are in the conservatory? Show your work.

Answers

Answer:

There are 172 butterflies  in the conservatory.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

ratio of butterflies to total number of flying insects is 36 to 100

total number of butterflies / total number of flying insects = 36 / 100 = 9/25

Create a table for how many butterflies there are for 1, 50, and 100 flying insects.

Let the number of butter flies be x

when total no. of insects = 1

total number of butterflies / total number of flying insects  =9/25=x/1

=> 9/25= x/1

=> x = 9/25

____________________________________

when total no. of insects = 50

total number of butterflies / total number of flying insects  =9/25=x/50

=> 9/25= x/50

=> x = 9/25 * 50 = 18

_______________________________________

when total no. of insects = 100

total number of butterflies / total number of flying insects  =9/25=x/100

=> 9/25= x/100

=> x = 9/25 * 100= 36

Thus, table is

butterfly    total no of insects

   9/25            1

     50             18

     100            36

______________________________________________

Given there There are 450 total flying insects in the conservatory

again using the same ratio and taking no. of butterflies as x

total number of butterflies / total number of flying insects  =9/25=x/450

9/25=x/450

=>x = 9/25 * 450 = 9*18 = 172

Thus, there are 172 butterflies  in the conservatory.

Answer:

There are 162 butterflies  in the conservatory.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

ratio of butterflies to total number of flying insects is 36 to 100

total number of butterflies / total number of flying insects = 36 / 100 = 9/25

Create a table for how many butterflies there are for 1, 50, and 100 flying insects.

Let the number of butter flies be x

when total no. of insects = 1

total number of butterflies / total number of flying insects  =9/25=x/1

=> 9/25= x/1

=> x = 9/25

____________________________________

when total no. of insects = 50

total number of butterflies / total number of flying insects  =9/25=x/50

=> 9/25= x/50

=> x = 9/25 * 50 = 18

_______________________________________

when total no. of insects = 100

total number of butterflies / total number of flying insects  =9/25=x/100

=> 9/25= x/100

=> x = 9/25 * 100= 36

Thus, table is

butterfly    total no of insects

  9/25            1

    50             18

    100            36

______________________________________________

Given there There are 450 total flying insects in the conservatory

again using the same ratio and taking no. of butterflies as x

total number of butterflies / total number of flying insects  =9/25=x/450

9/25=x/450

=>x = 9/25 * 450 = 9*18 = 162

Thus, there are 162 butterflies  in the conservatory.

Answer:

The sample mean is 9.875 standard deviations from the mean of the distribution of sample

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation s, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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

[tex]X = 17.79, \mu = 17, s = 0.08[/tex]

How many standard deviations is the sample mean from the mean of the distribution of sample?

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

[tex]Z = \frac{17.79 - 17}{0.08}[/tex]

3. Maria is a veterinarian. She wants to know how the weight of a puppy is related to its length. To find out, Maria randomly selected 10 puppies that are two months old. She recorded the length and weight of each puppy in the table below. Part A. The data from the table are shown on the scatterplot. Draw an estimated line of best fit through the data points. (3 points) Part B. Use the scatterplot to answer these questions. a. What kind of correlation exists between the length and weight of the puppies? Explain. (2 points) b. Identify two points on the line of best fit that you drew in Part A. Use the two points to find the equation of the line. Write the equation of the best fit line in slope-intercept form. Show your work. (4 points: 1 point for identifying the coordinates of two points, 1 point for slope, 1 point for b-value, and 1 point for showing work)

Answers

Answer:

Part A. I chose points (7,1.3) and (48,9.8)

Part B. a. Positive correlation; b.  y = 0.21x - 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A.

I chose the first and last points on the line — (7 in, 1.3 lb) and (48 in, 9.8 lb).

That put three points on the line, three above it, and four below.

Part B

a. Type of correlation

There is a positive correlation between the length of a puppy and its weight.

You would expect a longer dog to be bigger and weigh more than a shorter dog.

b.  The equation for the line of best fit

The slope-intercept equation for a straight line is

y = mx + b

where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

The line passes through the points (7,1.3) and (48, 9.8).

(i) Calculate the slope of the line

\begin{array}{rcl}

[tex]m & = & \dfrac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}\\\\ & = & \dfrac{9.8 - 1.3}{48-9}\\\\& = & \dfrac{8.5}{41}\\\\& = & \textbf{0.21 lb/in}\\\\\end{array}[/tex]

The slope of the line is 0.21 lb/in.

(ii) Locate the y-intercept

Put the slope and the coordinates of one point into the slope-intercept formula.

[tex]\begin{array}{rcl}y & = & mx + b\\1.3 & = & 0.21\times7 + b\\1.3 & = & 1.47 + b\\b & = & -0.2\\\end{array}[/tex]

The y-intercept is at (0,-0.2)

(iii) Write the equation for the line

y = 0.21x - 0.2

Mr.Chang needs to ship 8 boxes of cookies in a packing carton. Each box is a tight rectangular prism 8 inches long, 5 inches wide, and 3 inches high. What is the volume in cubic inches, of each box?

Answers

Answer:

120 inches cubed

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding the volume of a rectangular prism is length * width * height.

In this case, 8 inches long is the length, 5 inches is the width, and 3 inches is the height.

So multiplying all of those together gets you 120 inches cubed.

There are two species of plants that live along the ridge line of Old Rag, which is a mountain here in Virginia. The probability of observing the first species is 0.61, while the probability of observing the second species is 0.08. The probability of observing them growing together (i.e. right next to one another) is 0.28. When you go for a hike along this ridge line, what is the probability of observing one species or the other but not both together

Answers

Answer:

0.13

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's find the probability of finding the first species or the second species:

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A and B)

P(A or B) = 0.61 + 0.08 - 0.28

P(A or B) = 0.41

Then, to find the probability of finding one or another but not both, we just need the symmetric difference of the events, that is: P(A or B) - P(A and B):

P(A or B) - P(A and B) = 0.41 - 0.28 = 0.13
