Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

From the given information; we can compute the null and the alternative hypothesis as follows:

[tex]H_o : \mu = 38[/tex]  

[tex]H_1 : \mu < 38[/tex]

Level of significance ∝ = 1% = 0.01

The critical values of t distribution since the sample size n = 20 is:

n - 1

= 20 - 1

= 19 degree of freedom

Assuming the population  is normally distributed:

The t test can be computed by using the EXCEL FUNCTION

  = TINV(0.01, 19 )

  = 2.539483

[tex]t_{0.01,19} = 2.539483[/tex]

However;

we were also given the sample mean X to be = 35 minutes

the standard deviation SD = 5 minutes

Thus; the test statistics can be computed as;

[tex]t = \dfrac{\bar X - \mu}{\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \dfrac{35- 38}{\dfrac{5}{\sqrt{20}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \dfrac{-3}{\dfrac{5}{4.472}}[/tex]

[tex]t_o = -2.6833[/tex]

The P-value P ( t < [tex]t_o[/tex]) = P(  t < - 2.633)

= 0.007355

P-value [tex]\approx[/tex] 0.0074

Decision Rule: If P - value is less than the level of significance; we are to reject the null hypothesis.

Conclusion: P-value < level of significance ; i.e 0.0074 < 0.01; so we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis.

Thus; we conclude that the average time for assembling the computer board is less than 38 minutes at 0.01 level of significance.

b).

Given that:

Sample size n = 20

level of significance = 0.05

The population variance σ² is more than 22

Thus null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as follows:

[tex]H_0 : \sigma^2 = 22[/tex]

[tex]H_1 : \sigma^2 < 22[/tex]

From above;

degree of freedom  df = 19

The critical value of [tex]X^2[/tex] at df = 19 and ∝ = 0.05 is = 30.14353  at the right tailed region.

[tex]X^2_{0.05,19} =[/tex] 30.14353

The test statistics [tex]X^2[/tex]  for the sample variance is computed as:

[tex]X^2= \dfrac{(n-1 )s^2}{\sigma^2}[/tex]

[tex]X^2= \dfrac{(20-1 )25}{22}[/tex]

[tex]X^2= \dfrac{(19)25}{22}[/tex]

[tex]X^2= \dfrac{475}{22}[/tex]

[tex]X^2[/tex] = 21.5909

The P-value for the test statistics is :

= 1 - P( [tex]X^2[/tex] < 21.5909)

= 1 - 0.694914

= 0.305086

The P-value = 0.305086

Decision Rule: If P - value is less than the level of significance; we are to reject the null hypothesis.

Conclusion:  SInce the P-value is greater than the level of significance ; i.e

0.305086  > 0.05 ; Therefore; we  do not reject the null hypothesis.

Therefore the data does not have sufficient information to conclude that the population variance is more than 22 at 5% level of significance.

I hope that helps a lot.

A restaurant chain is measuring the levels of arsenic in chicken from its suppliers. The question is whether there is evidence that the mean level of arsenic is greater than 80 ppb, so we are testing vs , where represents the average level of arsenic in all chicken from a certain supplier. It takes money and time to test for arsenic so samples are often small. A sample of chickens from one supplier is tested, and the resulting sample mean is . Subtracting 11 from the sample data to move the mean down to the null mean of results in the following data: .
57, 64, 70, 82, 84, 123
Use StatKey or other technology to create the randomization distribution for this test. Find the p-value.

Answers

Answer:

The p-value of the test is 0.1515.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis for the test can be defined as follows:

H₀: The mean level of arsenic is 80 ppb, i.e. μ = 80.

Hₐ: The mean level of arsenic is greater than 80 ppb, i.e. μ > 80.

As the population standard deviation is not known we will use a t-test for single mean.

It is provided that the sample mean was, [tex]\bar X=91[/tex].

The adjusted sample provided is:

S = {57, 64, 70, 82, 84, 123}

Compute the sample standard deviation as follows:

[tex]\bar x=\farc{57+64+70+82+84+123}{6}=80\\\\s=\sqrt{\frac{1}{6-1}\times [(57-80)^{2}+(64-80)^{2}+(70-80)^{2}+...+(123-80)^{2}]}=23.47[/tex]

Compute the test statistic value as follows:

 [tex]t=\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\s/\sqrt{n}}=\frac{91-80}{23.47/\sqrt{6}}=1.148[/tex]

Thus, the test statistic value is 1.148.

Compute the p-value of the test as follows:

 [tex]p-\text{value}=P(t_{n-1}<t)[/tex]

                [tex]=P(t_{6-1}<1.148})\\\\=P(t_{5}<1.148})\\\\=0.1515[/tex]

*Use a t-table.

Thus, the p-value of the test is 0.1515.

Decision rule:

If the p-value of the test is less than the significance level then the null hypothesis will be rejected and vice-versa.

p-value = 0.1515 > α = 0.05

The null hypothesis will not be rejected at 5% level of significance.

Thus, concluding that the mean level of arsenic in chicken from the suppliers is 80 ppb.

Dr. Miriam Johnson has been teaching accounting for over 20 years. From her experience, she knows that 60% of her students do homework regularly. Moreover, 95% of the students who do their homework regularly generally pass the course. She also knows that 85% of her students pass the course.

a. What is the probability that a student will do homework regularly and also pass the course?

b. What is the probability that a student will neither do homework regularly nor will pass the course?

c. Are the events "pass the course" and "do homework regularly" mutually exclusive? Explain.

d. Are the events "pass the course" and "do homework regularly" independent? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

a) The probability that a student will do homework regularly and also pass the course = P(H n P) = 0.57

b) The probability that a student will neither do homework regularly nor will pass the course = P(H' n P') = 0.12

c) The two events, pass the course and do homework regularly, aren't mutually exclusive. Check Explanation for reasons why.

d) The two events, pass the course and do homework regularly, aren't independent. Check Explanation for reasons why.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the event that a student does homework regularly be H.

The event that a student passes the course be P.

- 60% of her students do homework regularly

P(H) = 60% = 0.60

- 95% of the students who do their homework regularly generally pass the course

P(P|H) = 95% = 0.95

- She also knows that 85% of her students pass the course.

P(P) = 85% = 0.85

a) The probability that a student will do homework regularly and also pass the course = P(H n P)

The conditional probability of A occurring given that B has occurred, P(A|B), is given as

P(A|B) = P(A n B) ÷ P(B)

And we can write that

P(A n B) = P(A|B) × P(B)

Hence,

P(H n P) = P(P n H) = P(P|H) × P(H) = 0.95 × 0.60 = 0.57

b) The probability that a student will neither do homework regularly nor will pass the course = P(H' n P')

From Sets Theory,

P(H n P') + P(H' n P) + P(H n P) + P(H' n P') = 1

P(H n P) = 0.57 (from (a))

Note also that

P(H) = P(H n P') + P(H n P) (since the events P and P' are mutually exclusive)

0.60 = P(H n P') + 0.57

P(H n P') = 0.60 - 0.57

Also

P(P) = P(H' n P) + P(H n P) (since the events H and H' are mutually exclusive)

0.85 = P(H' n P) + 0.57

P(H' n P) = 0.85 - 0.57 = 0.28

So,

P(H n P') + P(H' n P) + P(H n P) + P(H' n P') = 1

Becomes

0.03 + 0.28 + 0.57 + P(H' n P') = 1

P(H' n P') = 1 - 0.03 - 0.57 - 0.28 = 0.12

c) Are the events "pass the course" and "do homework regularly" mutually exclusive? Explain.

Two events are said to be mutually exclusive if the two events cannot take place at the same time. The mathematical statement used to confirm the mutual exclusivity of two events A and B is that if A and B are mutually exclusive,

P(A n B) = 0.

But, P(H n P) has been calculated to be 0.57, P(H n P) = 0.57 ≠ 0.

Hence, the two events aren't mutually exclusive.

d. Are the events "pass the course" and "do homework regularly" independent? Explain

Two events are said to be independent of the probabilty of one occurring dowant depend on the probability of the other one occurring. It sis proven mathematically that two events A and B are independent when

P(A|B) = P(A)

P(B|A) = P(B)

P(A n B) = P(A) × P(B)

To check if the events pass the course and do homework regularly are mutually exclusive now.

P(P|H) = 0.95

P(P) = 0.85

P(H|P) = P(P n H) ÷ P(P) = 0.57 ÷ 0.85 = 0.671

P(H) = 0.60

P(H n P) = P(P n H)

P(P|H) = 0.95 ≠ 0.85 = P(P)

P(H|P) = 0.671 ≠ 0.60 = P(H)

P(P)×P(H) = 0.85 × 0.60 = 0.51 ≠ 0.57 = P(P n H)

None of the conditions is satisfied, hence, we can conclude that the two events are not independent.

Imagine you have a rectangular wooden block with dimensions of 10 cm x 3 cm x 8 cm (L x W x H). Required:a. What is the volume of your wooden block?b. What is the density of this wooden block if it has a mass of 168 g?

Answers

Answer:

a) The volume of the wooden block is 240 cm^3.

b) The density of the wooden block is 0.7 g/cm^3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the rectangular wooden block can be calculated as the multiplication of the length in each dimension: length, wide and height.

With dimensions 10 cm x 3 cm x 8 cm, the volume is:

[tex]V=L\cdot W\cdot H = 10\cdot 3\cdot 8=240[/tex]

The volume of the wooden block is 240 cm^3.

If we know that the mass of the wooden block is 168 g, we can calculate the density as:

[tex]\rho = \dfrac{M}{V}=\dfrac{168}{240}=0.7[/tex]

The density of the wooden block is 0.7 g/cm^3.

The Pythagorean Theorem

If a and b are the lengths of the legs of a right triangle and c is the length of the hypotenuse, then the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse.

This relationship is represented by the formula:

                                                     [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem  to find the lengths of the three sides we get:

Because a length can only be positive, the only solution is

[tex]x=5+3\sqrt{10}\approx 14.5[/tex]

The length of the short side is 14.5, the length of the other short side is [tex]14.5+4=18.5[/tex], and the length of the longest side is [tex]14.5+9=23.5[/tex].

Answers

Answer:

the correct choice is A. At the gas station

Step-by-step explanation:

Lucy starts at home and travels 3 miles south to the post office. From the post office, she travels 4 miles east to the gas station. As it is known south and east directions form right angle. Since the entire trip forms a triangle, this triangle is right with right angle at the post office.

Call the vertices of this triangle P - post office, G - gas station, H - home. Then HP and PG are legs of this triangle and GH is hypotenuse.

From the given data:

HP=3;

PG=4;

GH=5;

∠P=90°.

The smallest angle is opposite to the smallest side. The smallest side is leg HP, so the smallest angle is G that is the angle at gas station.

Among coffee drinkers, men drink a mean of 3.2 cups per day with a standard deviation of 0.8 cups. Assume the number of cups per day follows a normal distribution.

a. What proportion drink 2 cups per day or more?

b. What proportion drink no more than 4 cups per day?

c. If the top 5% of coffee drinkers are considered "heavy" coffee drinkers, what is the minimum number of cups consumed by a heavy coffee drinker?

d. If a sample of 20 men is selected, what is the probability that the mean number of cups per day is greater than 3?

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.9332 = 93.32% drink 2 cups per day or more.

b) 0.8413 = 84.13% drink no more than 4 cups per day

c) The minimum number of cups consumed by a heavy coffee drinker is 4.52.

d) 86.86% probability that the mean number of cups per day is greater than 3

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.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 3.2, \sigma = 0.8[/tex]

a. What proportion drink 2 cups per day or more?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 2. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{2 - 3.2}{0.8}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.5[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0668

1 - 0.0668 = 0.9332

0.9332 = 93.32% drink 2 cups per day or more.

b. What proportion drink no more than 4 cups per day?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 4.

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

[tex]Z = \frac{4 - 3.2}{0.8}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.8413

0.8413 = 84.13% drink no more than 4 cups per day

c. If the top 5% of coffee drinkers are considered "heavy" coffee drinkers, what is the minimum number of cups consumed by a heavy coffee drinker?

This is the 100 - 5 = 95th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.95. So X when Z = 1.645. Then

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

[tex]1.645 = \frac{X - 3.2}{0.8}[/tex]

[tex]X - 3.2 = 1.645*0.8[/tex]

[tex]X = 4.52[/tex]

The minimum number of cups consumed by a heavy coffee drinker is 4.52.

d. If a sample of 20 men is selected, what is the probability that the mean number of cups per day is greater than 3?

Sample of 20, so applying the central limit theore with n = 20, [tex]s = \frac{0.8}{\sqrt{20}} = 0.1789[/tex]

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 3.

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{3 - 3.2}{0.1789}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.12[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.12[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.1314

1 - 0.1314 = 0.8686

86.86% probability that the mean number of cups per day is greater than 3

Rod's quiz grades are 72, 74, 89, and90. What score on a fifth quiz will make his average woz grade at least 84?​

Answers

Answer: He would need at least a 95

Step-by-step explanation:

First I found the current average by adding 72, 74, 89, and 90 which equals 325.

Second, I worked backwards to see what the sum of his grades had to be by multiplying 84 times 5. 84 times 5 = 420

Now that we have both the current and the target sum, we find the difference by doing 420-325 which equals 95.

Required:
a. Calculate the standard error of the mean.
b. What is the probability that the sample mean will be less than $7.75?
c. What is the probability that the sample mean will be less than $8.10?
d. What is the probability that the sample mean will be more than $8.20?

Answers

Answer:

(a) The standard error of the mean is 0.091.

(b) The probability that the sample mean will be less than $7.75 is 0.0107.

(c) The probability that the sample mean will be less than $8.10 is 0.9369.

(d) The probability that the sample mean will be more than $8.20 is 0.0043.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the average price for a movie in the United States in 2012 was $7.96.

Assume the population standard deviation is $0.50 and that a sample of 30 theaters was randomly selected.

Let [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean price for a movie in the United States

The z-score probability distribution for the sample mean is given by;

                              Z  =  [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where,  [tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean price for a movie = $7.96

            [tex]\sigma[/tex] = population standard deviation = $0.50

            n = sample of theaters = 30

(a) The standard error of the mean is given by;

     Standard error  =  [tex]\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]  =  [tex]\frac{0.50}{\sqrt{30} }[/tex]

                                =  0.091

(b) The probability that the sample mean will be less than $7.75 is given by = P([tex]\bar X[/tex] < $7.75)

  P([tex]\bar X[/tex] < $7.75) = P( [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]\frac{7.75-7.96}{\frac{0.50}\sqrt{30} } }[/tex] ) = P(Z < -2.30) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 2.30)

                                                         = 1 - 0.9893 = 0.0107

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2.30 in the z table which has an area of 0.9893.

(c) The probability that the sample mean will be less than $8.10 is given by = P([tex]\bar X[/tex] < $8.10)

  P([tex]\bar X[/tex] < $8.10) = P( [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]\frac{8.10-7.96}{\frac{0.50}\sqrt{30} } }[/tex] ) = P(Z < 1.53) = 0.9369

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.53 in the z table which has an area of 0.9369.

(d) The probability that the sample mean will be more than $8.20 is given by = P([tex]\bar X[/tex] > $8.20)

  P([tex]\bar X[/tex] > $8.20) = P( [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] > [tex]\frac{8.20-7.96}{\frac{0.50}\sqrt{30} } }[/tex] ) = P(Z > 2.63) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 2.63)

                                                         = 1 - 0.9957 = 0.0043

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2.63 in the z table which has an area of 0.9957.

Answer:

44. answer = a. (<)

45. answer = b. (>)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the relation between the angles, we can use the law of sines in the triangle that contains both angles.

So for question 44, the angles mQRW and mRWQ are both in the triangle QWR, so we have:

10 / sin(mQRW) = 17 / sin(mRWQ)

sin(mQRW) / sin(mRWQ) = 10 / 17

The bigger the sine of the angle, the bigger the angle, so if the ratio between the sine of mQRW and sine of mRWQ is lesser than 1, the angle mQRW is lesser than the angle mRWQ (correct option: a.)

In the same way, in the question 45, the angles mRTW and mTWR are both in the triangle TWR, so we have:

15 / sin(mRTW) = 8 / sin(mTWR)

sin(mRTW) / sin(mTWR) = 15 / 8

If the ratio between the sine of mRTW and sine of mTWR is greater than 1, the angle mRTW is greater than the angle mTWR (correct option: b.)

Basically, the angle opposite to the greater side is the greater angle, and the angle opposite to the smaller side is the smaller angle.

PROBLEM 6. 10 A histogram has mean 70 and standard deviation 5 If the histogram is not bell shaped but it is symmetric. Find the least proportion of data falls between 70 and 80 If the histogram is bell shaped. Find the proportion of data between 65 and 77

Answers

Answer:

a. 0.4772 = 47.72 %

b. 0.7605 = 76.05 %

Step-by-step explanation:

What we must do is calculate the z value for each value and thus find what percentage each represents and the subtraction would be the percentage between those two values.

We have that z is equal to:

z = (x - m) / (sd)

x is the value to evaluate, m the mean, sd the standard deviation

a. ind the least proportion of data falls between 70 and 80 If the histogram is bell shaped:

So for 70 copies we have:

z = (70 - 70) / (5)

z = 0

and this value represents 0.5

So for 80 copies we have:

z = (80 - 70) / (5)

z = 2

and this value represents 0.9772

p (70 > x > 80) = 0.9772 - 0.5

p (70 > x > 80) = 0.4772 = 47.72 %

b.  Find the proportion of data between 65 and 77

So for 65 copies we have:

z = (65 - 70) / (5)

z = -1

and this value represents 0.1587

So for 77 copies we have:

z = (77 - 70) / (5)

z = 1.4

and this value represents 0.9192

p (65 > x > 77) = 0.9192 - 0.1587

p (65 > x > 77)  = 0.7605 = 76.05 %

The mean life of a particular brand of light bulb is 1200 hours and the standard deviation is 75 hours. Tests show that the life of the bulb is approximately normally distributed. It can be concluded that approximately 68% of the bulbs will last between:_________

Answers

Answer:

[tex] \mu -\sigma = 1200-75 = 1125[/tex]

[tex] \mu +\sigma = 1200+75 = 1275[/tex]

It can be concluded that approximately 68% of the bulbs will last between:1125 and 1275 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we know that the random variable X "iife of a particular brand of light bulb " and we know the following distribution:

[tex] X \sim N(\mu = 1200, \sigma =75)[/tex]

And we can use the empirical rule for this case and we know that 68% of the values are within one deviation from the mean and we can find the limits like this:

[tex] \mu -\sigma = 1200-75 = 1125[/tex]

[tex] \mu +\sigma = 1200+75 = 1275[/tex]

It can be concluded that approximately 68% of the bulbs will last between:1125 and 1275 hours

An elementary school is offering 3 language classes: one in Spanish, one in French, and one in German. The classes are open to any of the 100 students in the school. There are 28 students in the Spanish class, 26 in the French class, and 16 in the German class. There are 12 students who are in both Spanish and French, 4 who are in both Spanish and German, and 6 who are in both French and German. In addition, there are 2 students taking all 3 classes. If two students are randomly chosen, what is the probability that at exactly one of them does exactly two language classes.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that at exactly one of them does exactly two language classes is 0.32.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can model this variable as a binomial random variable with sample size n=2.

The probability of success, meaning the probability that a student is in exactly two language classes can be calculated as the division between the number of students that are taking exactly two classes and the total number of students.

The number of students that are taking exactly two classes is equal to the sum of the number of students that are taking two classes, minus the number of students that are taking the three classes:

[tex]N_2=F\&S+S\&G+F\&G-F\&S\&G=12+4+6-2=20[/tex]

Then, the probabilty of success p is:

[tex]p=20/100=0.2[/tex]

The probability that k students are in exactly two classes can be calcualted as:

[tex]P(x=k) = \dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}(1-p)^{n-k}\\\\\\P(x=k) = \dbinom{2}{k} 0.2^{k} 0.8^{2-k}\\\\\\[/tex]

Then, the probability that at exactly one of them does exactly two language classes is:

[tex]P(x=1) = \dbinom{2}{1} p^{1}(1-p)^{1}=2*0.2*0.8=0.32\\\\\\[/tex]
