The number of hours per week that the television is turned on is determined for each family in a sample. The mean of the data is 31 hours and the median is 27.2 hours. Twenty-four of the families in the sample turned on the television for 16 hours or less for the week. The 7th percentile of the data is 16 hours. Step 2 of 5 : Approximately how many families are in the sample

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

There are approximately 343 families in the sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

xth percentile:

A measure is said to be in the xth percentile if it is greater than x% of the measures.

Twenty-four of the families in the sample turned on the television for 16 hours or less for the week. The 7th percentile of the data is 16 hours.

This means that 7% of the sample size n is 24. So

[tex]0.07n = 24[/tex]

[tex]n = \frac{24}{0.07}[/tex]

[tex]n = 342.86[/tex]

Rounding up, there are approximately 343 families in the sample.

Starting at 6 a.m. every morning, Matilda receives text messages on her cell phone from her mother, her best friend, and her brother according to three independent Poisson processes. Her mother texts Matilda on average once every hour. Her best friend sends a message once every 10 minutes, and she receives messages from her brother every 30 minutes.
A) Find the probability that by 7:30 a.m. Mary receives exactly four messages – two of her best friend and two of her mother.
B) With a chance of 75% a text message contains a typo independent of the sender. Find the probability that there are no typos in the text messages Matilda receives between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m.

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.0013 = 0.13% probability that by 7:30 a.m. Mary receives exactly four messages – two of her best friend and two of her mother.

b) [tex]1.6 \times 10^{-9}[/tex] probability that there are no typos in the text messages Matilda receives between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Poisson distribution:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.

A) Find the probability that by 7:30 a.m. Mary receives exactly four messages – two of her best friend and two of her mother.

Two from the best friend:

Her best friend sends a message once every 10 minutes.

From 6 to 7:30, there is an hour and a half, that is, 90 minutes, so the mean for her best friend is [tex]\mu = \frac{90}{10} = 9[/tex]

Two messages is P(X = 2). So

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-9}*9^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.0050[/tex]

Two from the mother:

Message every hour = 60 minutes. So [tex]\mu = \frac{90}{60} = 1.5[/tex]. This is P(X = 2).

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-1.5}*1.5^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2510[/tex]

Two of her best friend and two of her mother:

Independent events, so the probability of both happening is the multiplication of their separate probabilities.

[tex]p = 0.005*0.251 = 0.0013[/tex]

0.0013 = 0.13% probability that by 7:30 a.m. Mary receives exactly four messages – two of her best friend and two of her mother.

B) With a chance of 75% a text message contains a typo independent of the sender. Find the probability that there are no typos in the text messages Matilda receives between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m.

In 3 hours, she is expected to receive:

3*60/10 = 18 messages from her best friend.

3*60/60 = 3 messages from her mother.

3*60/30 = 6 messages from her brother.

In total, 27 messages.

75% probability of a typo, so [tex]\mu = 0.75*27 = 20.25[/tex]

This is P(X = 0).

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-20.25}*20.25^{0}}{(0)!} = 1.6 \times 10^{-9}[/tex]

[tex]1.6 \times 10^{-9}[/tex] probability that there are no typos in the text messages Matilda receives between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m.

2) In a random survey of 500 women, 315 said they would rather be poor and thin than rich and fat; in a random survey of 400 men, 220 said they would rather be poor and thin than rich and fat. Is there sufficient evidence to show that the proportion of women who would rather be poor and thin than rich and fat is greater than the proportion of men who would rather be poor and thin than rich and fat

Answers

Answer:

Since the calculated value of Z= 0.242887  is less than  Z (0.05) = 1.645 and falls in the critical region we  reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is not sufficient evidence to show that the proportion of women who would rather be poor and thin than rich and fat is greater than the proportion of men who would rather be poor and thin than rich and fat.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here

p1= proportion of women who  would rather be poor and thin than rich and fat

p1= 315/500= 0.63

p2= proportion of men who  would rather be poor and thin than rich and fat

p2= 220/400= 0.55

1) Formulate the hypothesis as

H0: p1>p2   against the claim  Ha: p1 ≤ p2

2) Choose the significance level ∝0.05

3) The test Statistic under H0 , is

Z= p1^ - p2^ / sqrt( pc^qc^( 1/n1 + 1/n2))

pc^= an estimate of the common proportion

pc ^ = n1p1^ + n2p2^/ n1+n2

4) The critical region is Z≤ Z (0.05) = 1.645

5)  Calculations

pc^ = 315+ 220/ 500+400=  535/900

pc^= 0.5944

and qc^= 1-0.5944= 0.4055

Thus

Z = 0.63-0.55/ sqrt ( 0.5944*0.4055( 1/500+ 1/400))

Z= 0.08/ sqrt (0.24108 (900/2000))

Z= 0.08/√0.10849

Z= 0.242887

Conclusion :

Since the calculated value of Z= 0.242887  is less than  Z (0.05) = 1.645 and falls in the critical region we  reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is not sufficient evidence to show that the proportion of women who would rather be poor and thin than rich and fat is greater than the proportion of men who would rather be poor and thin than rich and fat.

Answer:

2/6 socks are white.

Step-by-step explanation:

The denominator (6) is the amount of socks you have.

If 2/6 are blue and 2/6 are green. 4/6 are Blue & Green.

To find the remaining amount of socks you would simply subtract 6/6 by 4/6

Calculate the length of the diagonal AB

Answers

25
EXPLANATION:
No ok

Answer:

AB = [tex]5\sqrt{3}[/tex]  cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonal of the bottom square is the hypotenuse of two right triangles with legs 5 and 5

So, the length of that diagonal, say x,  of a 45-45-90 triangle where x is the hypotenuse is x = [tex]5\sqrt{2}[/tex]

Now that diagonal is a leg of the right triangle where AB is the hypotenuse and 5 is the length of the other leg.

So, [tex]x^{2} + 5^{2} = AB^{2}[/tex]  =  [tex](5\sqrt{2} )^{2}[/tex] + 25

                                =  50 + 25

                               = 75

Therefore   AB = [tex]\sqrt{75}[/tex] = [tex]5\sqrt{3}[/tex]

An investment service is currently recommending the purchase of shares of Dollar Department Store selling at $18 per share. The price is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 20 and a standard deviation of 2. What is the probability that in a year the shares will be selling: Between $21 and $24

Answers

Answer:

0.2857 = 28.57% probability that in a year the shares will be selling between $21 and $24

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.

The price is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 20 and a standard deviation of 2.

This means that [tex]\mu = 20, \sigma = 2[/tex]

What is the probability that in a year the shares will be selling between $21 and $24

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 24 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 21. So

X = 24:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{24 - 20}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9772

X = 21:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{21 - 20}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.6915

0.9772 - 0.6915 = 0.2857

0.2857 = 28.57% probability that in a year the shares will be selling between $21 and $24

Coterminal angle between 0 degrees and 360 degrees if coterminal angle is -450

Using equivalent angles, it is found that the coterminal angle is of 270º.

Equivalent Angles:In the trigonometric circle, ranging from 0 to 360º,  each angle has an equivalent on the each quadrant.A negative angle is given by the trigonometric circle in clock-wise rotation, hence, to convert to positive, we keep adding 360º.

In this problem:

The angle is of -450º.-450 + 360 = -90º, which means that the original angle gave more than one lap of the circle.Adding again, -90 + 360 = 270º, which is the coterminal angle.

Answers

Answer:

0.0309

Step-by-step explanation:

Faces on dice ( 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5)

Number of outcomes = 6

With 5 repeated twice

P(event A) = Required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Required outcome :

Number of 5's = 2 * distinct faces!

Required outcome = 2 * 5! = 2 * 120 = 240

Total possible outcomes = (number of faces)^distinct Numbers = 6^5 = 7776

Required / total possible = 240 / 7776

= 0.0308641

= 0.0309

Diameter of Marble - 13 mm Diameter of Flask - 25 cm Height of Flask (to level of marbles) - 40 cm FYI: 10 mm -1 cm

Answers

Given :

Diameter of the flask = 25 cm

radius, r = [tex]$\frac{25}{2}$[/tex] cm

Height of the flask, h = 40 cm

We have to find out the volume of the cylinder flask

Volume [tex]$= \pi r^2h$[/tex]

           [tex]$= 3.14 \times (\frac{25}{2})^2 \times 40$[/tex]

          = [tex]$19634.95 \ cm^3$[/tex]

          = [tex]$19635 \ cm^3$[/tex]

Now calculate the volume of the marble

Given :

Diameter = 13 mm

radius, R [tex]$=\frac{13}{2} \ mm$[/tex]

Therefore, volume of the marble [tex]$=\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3$[/tex]

                                                  [tex]$=\frac{4}{3}\times 3.14 \times (\frac{13}{2})^3$[/tex]

                                                   [tex]$= 1150.35 \ mm^3$[/tex]

                                                or  [tex]$= 115.035 \ cm^3$[/tex]

Therefore, the number of the marbles [tex]$=\frac{\text{volume of flask}}{\text{volume of marble}}$[/tex]

                                                          [tex]$=\frac{19635}{115.035}$[/tex]

                                                        = 170.68

Therefore, the number of the marbles used is approximately 170.
