Polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) is among a group of organic pollutants found in a variety of products, such as coolants, insulating materials, and lubricants in electrical equipment. Disposal of items containing less than 50 parts per million (ppm) PCB is generally not regulated. A certain kind of small capacitor contains PCB with a mean of 48.3 ppm and a standard deviation of 8 ppm. The Environmental Protection Agency takes a random sample of 40 of these small capacitors, planning to regulate the disposal of such capacitors if the sample mean amount of PCB is 48.5 ppm or more. Find the probability that the disposal of such capacitors will be regulated. Carry your intermediate comp
Answer:
0.4364 = 43.64% probability that the disposal of such capacitors will be regulated.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.
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.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem establishes 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.
Mean of 48.3 ppm and a standard deviation of 8 ppm.
This means that [tex]\mu = 48.3, \sigma = 8[/tex]
Sample of 40:
This means that [tex]n = 40, s = \frac{8}{\sqrt{40}}[/tex]
Find the probability that the disposal of such capacitors will be regulated.
Sample mean above 48.5, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 48.5. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{48.5 - 48.3}{\frac{8}{\sqrt{40}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.16[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.16[/tex] has a p-value of 0.5636.
1 - 0.5636 = 0.4364
0.4364 = 43.64% probability that the disposal of such capacitors will be regulated.
(-2,-3) (-1,2) write the equation in y=mx+b
Answer:
y = 5x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
(-2, -3) & (-1, 2)
First you want to find the slope of the line that passes through these points. To find the slope of the line, we use the slope formula: (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)
Plug in these values:
(2 - (-3)) / (-1 - (-2))
Simplify the parentheses.
= (2 + 3) / (-1 + 2)
= (5) / (1)
Simplify the fraction.
5/1
= 5
This is your slope. Plug this value into the standard slope-intercept equation of y = mx + b.
y = 5x + b
To find b, we want to plug in a value that we know is on this line: in this case, I will use the second point (-1, 2). Plug in the x and y values into the x and y of the standard equation.
2 = 5(-1) + b
To find b, multiply the slope and the input of x(-1)
2 = -5 + b
Now, add 5 to both sides to isolate b.
7 = b
Plug this into your standard equation.
y = 5x + 7
This is your equation.
Check this by plugging in the other point you have not checked yet (-2, -3).
y = 5x + 7
-3 = 5(-2) + 7
-3 = -10 + 7
-3 = -3
Your equation is correct.
Hope this helps!

A boy is flying two kites at the same time. He has 450 ft of line out to one kite and 390 ft to the other. He estimates the angle between the two lines to be 34 degrees. Approximate the distance between the kites.
Answer:
[tex]C=252.2ft[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that:
First Kite Distance [tex]A=450ft[/tex]
Second Kite Distance [tex]B=390ft[/tex]
Angle [tex]\theta=34\textdegree[/tex]
Generally the equation for Distance X between the kites is mathematically given by
Using Cosine Rule
[tex]C^2=A^2+B^2-2abCos \theta[/tex]
Therefore
[tex]C^2=(450)^2+(390)^2-2(450)(390)Cos 34[/tex]
[tex]C^2=63607.81[/tex]
[tex]C=\sqrt(63607.81)[/tex]
[tex]C=252.2ft[/tex]
. The volume of a box is 405 cubic units. The length is x units, the width 4 units greater than the length, and the height is 9 units. Find the length and width of the box.
Answer:
length = 5
width = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
V = lwh
let 'x' = length
let '4+x' = width
9 = height
405 = 9x(4+x)
405 = 36x + 9x²
this is a quadratic equation: 9x² + 36x - 405 = 0
factor out a 9 to get:
9(x² + 4x - 45) = 0
9(x-5)(x+9) = 0
one root is 5 and the other is -9
since distance cannot be negative we use 5 as the length and 9 is the width

Jordan’s Cat Fern is a finicky eater. Jordan is trying to determine which of two brands of canned cat food Fern prefers.
Answer:
There is significant difference in difference in the amount of food ferns eat ; and the preferred is TAB-a-cat.
(0.216, 5.984)
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a 2 sample t test test problem :
The hypothesis :
H0 : μ1 = μ2
H1 : μ1 ≠ μ2
x1 = 85.2 ; x2 = 82.1 ; n1 = 31 ; n2 = 30 ; s1 = 3.45 ; s2 = 4.62
The test statistic :
T = (x1 - x2) / √(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2)
T = (85.2 - 82.1) / √(3.45²/31 + 4.62²/30)
T = 3.1 / 1.0466
T = 2.96
Using the Pvalue from Tstatistic calculator :
df = smaller n - 1 = 30 - 1 = 29
Pvalue(2.96, 29) = 0.006075
α = 0.05
Pvalue < α ; We reject the Null and conclude that there is significant difference in difference in the amount of food ferns eat.
99% Confidence interval :
The test statistic :
(x1 - x2) ± Tcritical *√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2)
Tcritical at 99% = Tcritical(0.01, 29) = 2.756
(85.2 - 82.1) / 2.756*√(3.45²/31 + 4.62²/30)
3.1 ± 2.8844296
Lower boundary = (3.1 - 2.8844296) = 0.216
Upper boundary = (3.1 + 2.8844296) = 5.984
(0.216, 5.984)
Since interval does not contain 0, then, we reject the Null.

A food company puts exactly 10 sliced carrots in each bag of frozen vegetables. Let b represent the number of bags of frozen vegetables and c represent the total number of sliced carrots. The table shows the relationship between b and c. Which equation below represents the relationship between b and c?
Answer:
c = 10*b
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that in each bag, we have exactly 10 sliced carrots.
so if b represents the number of bags, and c the number of sliced carrots, for each one of the b bags we will have 10 sliced carrots, then for b bags, we have b times 10 carrots:
c = 10*b
So for example, if we have one bag, b = 1
c = 10*1 = 10
So in one bag, there are 10 carrots.
if instead, we have 3 bags, b = 3
c = 10*3 = 30
in 3 bags we have 30 carrots.
Then the equation that represents the relationship between b and c is:
c = 10*b
or
b = c/10

what is 300 to the nearest ten
Answer:
300⇒ nearest ten
≈ 300 (rounded to the nearest ten)
Explanation:
We round the number up to the nearest ten if the last digit in the number is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9. If the last digit is 0, then we do not have to do any rounding, because it is already to the ten. Therefore 300 rounded to the nearest ten is 300.

Answer:
angle y = 49°
Step-by-step explanation:
If AB = AD and BC = DC, then the two triangles are isosceles triangles. The altitude from the top to the base divides the top angle into two equal angles, with 90° angles at the base. If angle C is divided into two equal angles (41°) and at the base is a 90° angle, that makes angle CBD 49°. On an isosceles triangle, the two angles opposite to the equal sides are identical. So angle y is identical to angle CBD.
Two numbers are in the ratio 5:6. If the smaller one is decreased by 5 and
the other is increased by 3, the new ratio is 2:3. Find the number.
Answer:
Smallest Number = 35
Other Number = 42
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the smaller number be x.
Let the other number be y.
Given:
x : y = 5 : 6
That is,
[tex]\frac{x}{y} = \frac{5}{6}[/tex]
[tex]=> 5y = 6x\\\\=>x = \frac{5y}{6}[/tex]
Next: Let the smaller number be reduced by 5, x - 5
Let the other number be increased by 3, y + 3
Given : (x - 5) : (y + 3) = 2 : 3
That is,
[tex]\frac{x-5}{y+3} = \frac{2}{3}\\[/tex]
[tex](x-5) \times 3 = (y+3)\times 2\\\\substitute \ x = \frac{5y}{6}\\\\3(\frac{5y}{6} -5) = 2y + 6\\\\\frac{5y}{2} - 15 = 2y + 6\\\\\frac{5y}{2} - 2y = 6 + 15\\\\\frac{5y-4y}{2} = 21\\\\y = 21 \times 2 = 42\\\\Substitute \ y \ in \ x = \frac{5y}{6} \\\\x = \frac{5 \times 42}{6} = 35[/tex]
In a survey 125 people, 90 people liked orange juice or grape juice. There are 62 people who like orange juice and 43 people who like grape juice. What is the probability that a randomly selected person likes both juices?
Answer:
0.12 = 12% probability that a randomly selected person likes both juices.
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
We solve this question treating these events as Venn probabilities.
I am going to say that.
Event A: Like orange juice.
Event B: Like grape juice.
In a survey 125 people, 90 people liked orange juice or grape juice.
This means that:
[tex]P(A \cup B) = \frac{90}{125}[/tex]
62 people who like orange juice and 43 people who like grape juice.
This means that:
[tex]P(A) = \frac{62}{125}, P(B) = \frac{43}{125}[/tex]
What is the probability that a randomly selected person likes both juices?
This is [tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex], which is given by:
[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cup B)[/tex].
With the values in this problem:
[tex]P(A \cap B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cup B) = \frac{62}{125} + \frac{43}{125} - \frac{90}{125} = \frac{62 + 43 - 90}{125} = \frac{15}{125} = 0.12[/tex]
0.12 = 12% probability that a randomly selected person likes both juices.
Norton can mow the large lawn in about 5 hours. When he works with
Jesse, they can mow the same lawn together in about 3 hours. Which of
the following equations can be used to determine how long it would
take Jesse to mow the lawn by himself?
total. jobs
job. A
time. together time time
job. B
Answer:
7.5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
The key here is to find out how much can be done in the same amount ot time
the least common multiple of 5 hrs and 3 hrs is 15hrs
In 15 hours:
- At 5 hours per lawn Norton could mow 15/5 = 3 lawns
- At 3 hours per lawn together thay could mow 15/3 = 5 lawns
In 15 hours Jesse would mow 5 - 3 = 2 lawns
15 hours/ 2 lawns = 7.5 hours per lawn
7.5 hours
--------------------
Here's the math
1 lawn/5hrs + x = 1 lawn / 3hrs
1/5 + x = 1/3
Subtract 1/5 from both sides
x = 1/3 - 1/5
x = 5/15 - 3/15
x = 2/15
x = 2lawns/15 hrs
15hrs/2lawns = 7.5 hrs per lawn
7.5 hours
