The starting salary of business students in a university is known to be normally distributed. A random sample of 18 business students results in a mean salary of $46,500 with a standard deviation of $10,200. Construct the 90% confidence interval for the mean starting salary of business students in this university. Multiple Choice 46,500 ± 1.740 ( 10,200 / 18−−√ ) 46,500 ± 1.330 ( 10,200 / 18−−√ ) 46,500 ± 1.734 ( 10,200 / 18−−√ ) 46,500 ± 1.645 ( 10,200 / 18−−√ )

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]46500 \pm 1.74\frac{10200}{\sqrt{18}}[/tex]

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 = 18 - 1 = 17

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 17 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.95[/tex]. So we have T = 1.74

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 1.74\frac{10200}{\sqrt{18}}[/tex]

Confidence interval:

Sample mean plus/minus margin of error. So

[tex]46500 \pm 1.74\frac{10200}{\sqrt{18}}[/tex]

Different hotels in a certain area are randomly selected, and their ratings and prices were obtained online. Using technology, with x representing the ratings and y representing price, we find that the regression equation has a slope of 130 and a y-intercept of -350.

Required:
a. What is the equation of the regression line?
b. What does the symbol y represent?

Answers

Answer:

[tex](a)\ y = 130x -350[/tex]

(b) y represents the price of the hotel

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]b = 130[/tex] --- slope

[tex]a = -350[/tex] --- y intercept

Solving (a): The equation of the regression line.

The general form of the equation of the regression line is:

[tex]y = bx + a\\[/tex]

Substitute values for b and a;

[tex]y = 130x + (-350)[/tex]

Remove bracket

[tex]y = 130x -350[/tex]

Solving (b): What y represents

From the question, we understand that: y stands for price

Hence, the symbol y represents the price of a hotel. The value of y  depends on x (the ratings)

Answers

Answer:

0.97725

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Population mean, μ = 4.2

Population standard deviation, σ = 1.8

Sample size, n = 36

Obtain the Zscore of x = 4.8

Zscore = (x - μ) ÷ (σ / √n)

Zscore = (4.8 - 4.2) ÷ (1.8 / √36)

Zscore = 0.6 ÷ 0.3

Z = 2

Hence,

P(Z ≤ 2)

Using the Z probability calculator :

P(Z ≤ 2) = 0.97725

The most common railroad boxcars are 52 feet long, 9.5 feet wide, and 11 feet
tall. What is the volume, in cubic feet, of common railroad boxcars?

Answers

Answer:

Box volume ≈ 5,434 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Railroad boxcars are 52 feet long, 9.5 feet wide, and 11 feet

To find: The volume, in cubic feet, of common railroad boxcars

Solution: To find the volume of a box, simply multiply the length, width, and height.

Number 5 is L because you have 18 coins but you only want to find the probability of the pennies. So take 3/18 and simplify to 1/6 by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 3.

Number 6 can be (-6x - 3), just use the distributive property on the original expression.

Answer:

5. I.

6. -6x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

For number five you add up all the coins, which equals 18. Secondly, you see how many pennies there are. There are 3 so the answer is 3/18. Then you simpy into 1/6.

For number six, you want to multiply 3 by -2x and then multiply 3 by -1. You will get the answer -6x -3. If you see a number outside the parenthesis then multiply by the number inside of it.

A manufacturer wants to inspect the absorption capacity of a new sponge. Based on past data, the average sponge could absorb 3.5 ounces. After the redesign, the absorption amounts of a sample of 10 sponges were (in ounces): 4.1, 3.7, 3.3, 3.5, 3.8, 3.9, 3.6, 3.8, 4.0, and 3.9. At a level of significance of 1%, would you claim that the new design is better than the old one?

Requried:
a. No because we don't reject the Null Hypothesis at Alpha = 0.01
b. Yes because we reject the Null hypothesis at Type 1 error = 1%
c. Yes because the cut-off is more than the sample mean
d. No because the cut-off is less than the sample mean

Answers

Answer:

c. Yes because the cut-off is more than the sample mean

Step-by-step explanation:

The null and alternate hypotheses are

H0 : u= 3.5 ounces  vs Ha: u > 3.5 ounces

The mean and standard deviation of the sample are calculated to be 3.76 and 0.24

The test statistics is

t= x`- u/s√n

= 3.76-3.5/0.24/√10

= 0.26/0.07589

=3.426

The critical region for z test is  z > ± 2.33

The critical region for t test is   t > ± 2.82 for 9 d.f

For both the tests( z and t)   the test statistic =3.426 lies  in the critical region.

Hence we reject H0 and accept the hypothesis that  the new design is better than the old one at a level of significance of 1%.

cut-off = mean + 3 times the standard deviation

          =  3.76 + 3* 0.24

 cut-off     =4.48

Yes, the cut off is more than the sample mean.

So choice c is the best option.

i’d love to help! so we know that the angles of a triangle all add up to 180. we already have one of the angles found and a method to solve it. so 180=90+(2x+36)+(3x+14) would be a good equation. now to simplify it a little bit we can subtract 90 from both sides and have 90=(2x+36)+(3x+14) as an even more simplified equation. now we just need to solve for x by first combining like terms on the one side. so that will simplify to 90= 5x+50.
subtract 50 from both sides now
40=5x
divide by 5
x=8.

yayyy we got x now we can just plug it into the equations. so 2(8)+36 for the one angle. 16+36= 52. so mnext angle we can plug in 8 for x again. 3(8)+14. simplify to 24+14 which is 38. so m

b. Length (in feet) of a roll of plastic wrap advertised to be 30 feet long.
c. Temperature (in degrees Celsius)
d. Duration (in minutes) of a call to a customer support line

Answers

Answer:

a. Nominal and qualitative.

b. Ratio and quantitative.

c. Interval and quantitative.

d. Interval and quantitative.

Step-by-step explanation:

A level of measurement can be defined as a classification which is used to illustrate the attributes of the values assigned to variables. There are four (4) basic levels of measurement for a variable and these are;

1. Interval: data can be arranged in an ordering scheme and subtracting its differences is meaningful. Examples are year, temperature, time etc.

2. Ratio: data can be arranged in an ordering scheme and subtracting its differences is meaningful with respect to the value of true zero. Examples are height, price, weight, distance etc.

3. Ordinal: data can be arranged in an ordering scheme but subtracting its differences is meaningless or impossible. Examples are happy, sad etc.

4. Nominal: is characterized by data that are non-numerical, comprises of categories, labels or names and can't be arranged in an ordering scheme.

In this scenario, the level of measurement and data type are listed below;

a. End-of-year stock classification (high yield, medium yield, or low yield): the level of measurement is nominal because they are categorized. Also, the type of data is qualitative because it describes the quality of the stock and it's non-numerical in nature.

b. Length (in feet) of a roll of plastic wrap advertised to be 30 feet long: the level of measurement is a ratio because they can be arranged in order. Also, it's a quantitative data because it is numerical in nature.

c. Temperature (in degrees Celsius): the level of measurement is an interval because they can be arranged in order and the difference in value is meaningful. Also, the type of data is quantitative because it is numerical in nature.

d. Duration (in minutes) of a call to a customer support line: the level of measurement is an interval because they can be arranged in order and the difference in value is meaningful. Also, the type of data is quantitative because it is numerical in nature.

What is the inverse of the function g(x)=x^3/8+16

Answers

Answer:

The inverse of the function is [tex]f^{-1}(x) = \sqrt[3]{\frac{x-16}{8}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse of a function:

Suppose we have a function y = g(x). To find the inverse, we exchange the values of x and y, and then isolate y.

In this question:

[tex]y = \frac{x^3}{8} + 16[/tex]

Exchanging x and y:

[tex]x = \frac{y^3}{8} + 16[/tex]

[tex]\frac{y^3}{8} = x - 16[/tex]

[tex]y^3 = \frac{x-16}{8}[/tex]

[tex]y = \sqrt[3]{\frac{x-16}{8}}[/tex]

The inverse of the function is [tex]f^{-1}(x) = \sqrt[3]{\frac{x-16}{8}}[/tex]

Sarah has a new puppy and she wants to maximize her outdoor time, so she builds her a fenced in play area. She has 40 feet of fencing, and she wants to fence off a rectangular area next to her house. The house will be one side of the play area, so that side needs no fencing. In order for the puppy to have adequate space, the area needs to be at least 5 feet long and5 feet wide. What is the largest area she could have? Is there a smallest area she could have if she wants to use all 40 feet of fencing?

Answers

Answer

Step-by-step explanation:

yes 20 feet long

The largest possible area for the play area would be 200 square feet when the width is 10 feet and the length is 20 feet. The smallest area she could have while using all 40 feet of fencing is 100 square feet.

To maximize the area of the play area, we can consider the dimensions that will allow for the largest possible rectangle. Let's denote the width of the play area as "w" (in feet) and the length as "l" (in feet).

Since one side of the play area is already taken care of by the house, we need to use the remaining 40 feet of fencing to enclose the other three sides.

We have two equal sides (width) and one side (length) that needs to be fenced.

Considering the given conditions:

The area needs to be at least 5 feet long and 5 feet wide.

The total length of the fencing is 40 feet.

Let's consider the possible scenarios:

Scenario 1: The width and length are both 5 feet.

In this case, the total length of the fencing required would be:

2 * 5 feet (width) + 5 feet (length) = 15 feet.

However, since we have 40 feet of fencing available, this scenario is not possible.

Scenario 2: The width is 10 feet, and the length is 20 feet.

In this case, the total length of the fencing required would be:

2 * 10 feet (width) + 20 feet (length) = 40 feet.

This scenario satisfies all the given conditions and uses all 40 feet of fencing. The area in this case would be:

Area = Width * Length = 10 feet * 20 feet = 200 square feet.

Therefore, the largest possible area for the play area would be 200 square feet when the width is 10 feet and the length is 20 feet.

As for the smallest area she could have while using all 40 feet of fencing, that would be when the play area is a square. Since all sides of a square are equal, the play area would be a square with sides of 10 feet each. The area in this case would be:

Area = Side * Side = 10 feet * 10 feet = 100 square feet.

So, the smallest area she could have while using all 40 feet of fencing is 100 square feet.
