a) [tex](0.67-0.56) - 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.67(1-0.67)}{400} +\frac{0.56(1-0.56)}{400}}=0.054[/tex]  

[tex](0.67-0.56) + 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.67(1-0.67)}{400} +\frac{0.56(1-0.56)}{400}}=0.166[/tex]

b) [tex](0.31-0.25) - 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.31(1-0.31)}{180} +\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{250}}=-0.0122[/tex]  

[tex](0.31-0.25) +1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.31(1-0.31)}{180} +\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{250}}=0.132[/tex]  

And the 90% confidence interval would be given (-0.0122;0.132).

c) [tex](0.46-0.61) - 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.46(1-0.46)}{100} +\frac{0.61(1-0.61)}{120}}=-0.260[/tex]  

[tex](0.46-0.61) +1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.46(1-0.46)}{100} +\frac{0.61(1-0.61)}{120}}=-0.0404[/tex]  

And the 90% confidence interval would be given (-0.260;-0.0404).

Step-by-step explanation:

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.  

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".  

Part a

[tex]p_1[/tex] represent the real population proportion for sample 1

[tex]\hat p_1 =0.67[/tex] represent the estimated proportion for sample 1

[tex]n_A=400[/tex] is the sample size required for sample 1

[tex]p_2[/tex] represent the real population proportion for sample 2

[tex]\hat p_2 =0.56[/tex] represent the estimated proportion for sample 2

[tex]n_2=400[/tex] is the sample size required for sample 2

[tex]z[/tex] represent the critical value for the margin of error  

The population proportion have the following distribution  

[tex]p \sim N(p,\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}})[/tex]  

The confidence interval for the difference of two proportions would be given by this formula  

[tex](\hat p_1 -\hat p_2) \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1} +\frac{\hat p_2 (1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}}[/tex]  

For the 90% confidence interval the value of [tex]\alpha=1-0.9=0.1[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2=0.05[/tex], with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.  

[tex]z_{\alpha/2}=1.64[/tex]  

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:  

[tex](0.67-0.56) - 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.67(1-0.67)}{400} +\frac{0.56(1-0.56)}{400}}=0.054[/tex]  

[tex](0.67-0.56) + 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.67(1-0.67)}{400} +\frac{0.56(1-0.56)}{400}}=0.166[/tex]

And the 90% confidence interval would be given (0.054;0.166).  

Part b

[tex](0.31-0.25) - 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.31(1-0.31)}{180} +\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{250}}=-0.0122[/tex]  

[tex](0.31-0.25) +1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.31(1-0.31)}{180} +\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{250}}=0.132[/tex]  

And the 90% confidence interval would be given (-0.0122;0.132).

Part c

[tex](0.46-0.61) - 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.46(1-0.46)}{100} +\frac{0.61(1-0.61)}{120}}=-0.260[/tex]  

[tex](0.46-0.61) +1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.46(1-0.46)}{100} +\frac{0.61(1-0.61)}{120}}=-0.0404[/tex]  

And the 90% confidence interval would be given (-0.260;-0.0404).

A pharmaceutical company receives large shipments of aspirin tablets. The acceptance sampling plan is to randomly select and test 60 ​tablets, then accept the whole batch if there is only one or none that​ doesn't meet the required specifications. If one shipment of 7000 aspirin tablets actually has a 4​% rate of​ defects, what is the probability that this whole shipment will be​ accepted? Will almost all such shipments be​ accepted, or will many be​ rejected?

Answers

Answer:

the probability to be accepted is 0.302 (30.2%) (many will be rejected)

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming that the rate of 4% applies to the 60 tablets then since each tablet behaves independently, the random variable X= number of tablets with defects out of 60 tablets has a binomial distribution , where:

p(X)=n!/((n-x)!*x!)*p^x*(1-p)^(n-x)

where

n= total number of tablets tested = 60

x = number of defective tablets

p= probability to be defective = 0.04

then in order to be accepted x≤0 , then the probability that the batch is accepted Pa is

Pa=P(x≤1) = P(0) + P(1) = (1-p)^n + n*p*(1-p)^(n-1)

replacing values

Pa= (1-p)^n + n*p*(1-p)^(n-1) =  0.96^60 + 60*0.04*0.96^59 = 0.302 (30.2%)

then the probability to be accepted is  0.302 (30.2%) (many will be rejected)

We play a card game where we receive 13 cards at the beginning out of the deck of 52. we play 50 games one evening. for each of the the following random variable identify the name and parameters of the distribution: a) The number of aces I get in the first game b) The number of games in which I recieve at least one ace during the evening c) The number of games in which all my cards are from the same suit d) The number of spades I receive in 5th game

Answers

The answer & explanation for this question is given in the attachment below.

Final answer:

The number of aces in the first game and the number of spades in the 5th game follow a Hypergeometric Distribution while the number of games receiving at least one ace can be modeled by a Binomial distribution. The event of all cards being from the same suit can be thought of as a Uniform distribution.

Explanation:

a) The number of aces you get in the first game follows a Hypergeometric Distribution. In such a distribution, you are drawing cards without replacement. The parameters are N=52 (the population size), K=4 (the number of success states in the population i.e., the number of aces in a deck), and n=13 (the number of draws).

b) The number of games in which you receive at least one ace can be modeled by a Binomial distribution. Each game you play (out of 50) is a single trial, with the probability of success (getting at least one ace) being the same for every trial. The parameters are n=50 (the number of trials/games) and p (the probability of getting at least one ace).

c) The likelihood of all your cards being from the same suit in a game is heavily reliant on chance, can be modeled as a Uniform distribution given its rare occurrence. Essentially, the parameters would be minimum = 0 and maximum = 1. However, determining the parameters would require calculation of the specific probabilities, which is complex due to the nature of the game.

d) The number of spades you receive in the 5th game also follows a Hypergeometric distribution, similar to the situation in the first game. The parameters in this case are N=52, K=13 (number of spades in a deck), and n=13 (the number of drawn cards).

A certain type of plywood consists of 5 layers. The thickness of the layers follows a normal distribution with mean 5 mm and standard deviation 0.2 mm. Find the probability that the plywood is less than 24mm thick.

Answers

The resulting probability is approximately 100%.

To find the probability that the plywood is less than 24mm thick, we need to calculate the z-score for 24mm using the given mean and standard deviation. The z-score formula is:

z = (x - mean) / standard deviation

Substituting the values, we get:

z = (24 - 5) / 0.2 = 95

We can then look up the z-score in a standard normal distribution table to find the corresponding probability.

In this case, the probability is practically 1 (or 100%) since 24mm is significantly greater than the mean.

Therefore, the probability that the plywood is less than 24mm thick is approximately 100%.

The time until failure of an electronic device has an exponential distribution with mean 15 months. If a random sample of five such devices are tested, what is the probability that the first failure among the five devices occurs a after 9 months? b before 12 months?

Answers

Final answer:

To calculate the probability of the first failure of an electronic device occurring after 9 months and before 12 months, we use the exponential distribution formula. For part a, we raise the probability that one device surpasses 9 months to the power of five. For part b, we use the complementary probability that at least one device fails before 12 months.

Explanation:

The time-to-failure of an electronic device which follows an exponential distribution can be used to calculate probabilities for different time intervals. With a mean of 15 months, the rate [tex](\lambda\))[/tex] is the reciprocal of the mean, thus [tex]\(\lambda = 1/15\)[/tex]. Here's how we can calculate the requested probabilities:

Probability that the first failure occurs after 9 months: We use the exponential distribution property P(X > x) = e-\. [tex](\lambda x\))[/tex] Substituting the given values we get P(X > 9) = e-(1/15 × 9).Probability that the first failure occurs before 12 months: Again, using P(X < x) = 1 - e-[tex](\lambda x\))[/tex], we get P(X < 12) = 1 - e-(1/15 × 12).

For a sample of five such devices, assuming independence, we require all five devices to surpass 9 months for the first failure to occur after that time, thus we raise the probability found in part a to the power of five. Similarly, for the first failure to occur before 12 months, at least one device must fail before that time, so we use the complementary probability of all devices lasting longer than 12 months.

Let's calculate these probabilities using the exponential distribution formula.

a. P(first failure after 9 months) = \((e-(1/15 × 9))5\) = 0.5488.b. P(first failure before 12 months) = 1 - \((e-(1/15 × 12))5\) = 0.5513.

Ammonia at 70 F with a quality of 50% and a total mass of 4.5 lbm is in a rigid tank with an outlet valve at the bottom. How much liquid mass can be removed through the valve, assuming the temperature stays constant

Answers

Answer:

0.10865 killograms

Step-by-step explanation:

calculating the liquid mass of ammonia removed through the bottom value from a rigid tank at constant temperature.

Given:

temperature: [tex]T=70 F[/tex]

quality : 50% = 0.5

initial mass: [tex]m1= 4.5 lbm[/tex]

to find the removed liquid mass first we have to find total volume from which we can find remaining mass. as the tang is rigid the temperature and volume remains constant.

by taking the difference of mass we can determine the mass of liquid removed.

 we have two phases at temperature [tex]T= 70 F[/tex] with specific volume for liquid  [tex]vf=0.02631 ft^3/lbm[/tex]  and specific volume for vapor is  [tex]vg=2.3098 ft^3/lbm[/tex] .

The Volume in the initial state is given by, (Using definition of specific volume)

                                          [tex]V= m1v1[/tex]

 using [tex]v1=x(vf+vg)[/tex]

                                    [tex]V= m1x(vf+vg)[/tex]

substituting [tex]m1= 4.5 lbm\\[/tex] , [tex]vf= 0.02631 ft^3/lbm[/tex] , [tex]vg=2.3098 ft^3/lbm[/tex]

we get

        [tex]V= (4.5 lbm)(0.5)(0.02631 ft^3/lbm +2.3098 ft^3/lbm)[/tex]  

finally          [tex]V=5.2625 ft^3[/tex]  

we know the formula to find liquid mass is

[tex]mass =density *volume[/tex]

density of ammonia is  [tex]0.73 kg/m^3[/tex]

inserting the values into the formula we get the value for liquid mass removed through the valve.

[tex]m = (0.73 kg/m^3)*(5.25625 ft^3)[/tex]

the final answer is

                           [tex]m= 0.10865 kg[/tex]

An urn contains 5 red, 6 blue, and 8 green balls. If a set of 3 balls is randomly selected, what is the probability that each of the balls will be (a) of the same color(b) of all different colors
Repeat the experiment under the assumption that whenever a ball is selected, its color is noted and it is then replaced in the urn before the next selection. This is known as sampling with replacement. What is the probability that each of the balls will be:
(c) of the same color
(d) of all different colors

Answers

Final answer:

The probability that each of the balls will be of the same color can be calculated using combinations, while the probability that each of the balls will be of all different colors can be calculated using permutations. When sampling with replacement, the probabilities of selecting each color remain the same in each selection.

Explanation:

(a) Probability that each of the balls will be of the same color:

This can be calculated using the concept of combinations. There are a total of 19 balls in the urn. Let's calculate the number of ways to choose all 3 balls of the same color:

Picking all 3 red balls: There are 5 red balls, so the number of ways is C(5, 3).Picking all 3 blue balls: There are 6 blue balls, so the number of ways is C(6, 3).Picking all 3 green balls: There are 8 green balls, so the number of ways is C(8, 3).

Summing up the number of ways for each color, we get the total number of ways to pick 3 balls of the same color. The probability will be this number divided by the total number of ways to pick any 3 balls from the urn, which is C(19, 3).

(b) Probability that each of the balls will be of all different colors:

This can be calculated using the concept of permutations. There are a total of 19 balls in the urn. Let's calculate the number of ways to choose 1 ball of each color:

Picking 1 red ball: There are 5 red balls, so the number of ways is 5.Picking 1 blue ball: There are 6 blue balls, so the number of ways is 6.Picking 1 green ball: There are 8 green balls, so the number of ways is 8.

Since these events are independent, we multiply the number of ways for each color. The probability will be this number divided by the total number of ways to pick any 3 balls from the urn, which is C(19, 3).

(c) Probability that each of the balls will be of the same color (sampling with replacement):

When sampling with replacement, each ball has the same probability of being chosen in each selection. So the probability of selecting 1 red ball, 1 blue ball, and 1 green ball is the product of the probabilities of selecting each color. The probability for each color is the number of balls of that color divided by the total number of balls in the urn. Therefore, the probability will be (5/19) * (6/19) * (8/19).

(d) Probability that each of the balls will be of all different colors (sampling with replacement):

When sampling with replacement, the probability of each color being chosen in each selection remains the same. Therefore, the probability of selecting 1 red ball, 1 blue ball, and 1 green ball is the product of the probabilities of selecting each color. The probability for each color is the number of balls of that color divided by the total number of balls in the urn. Therefore, the probability will be (5/19) * (6/19) * (8/19).

According to data from the state blood program, 40 percent of all individuals have group A blood. If six individuals give blood, find the probability that exactly three of the individuals have group A blood.

Answers

Final answer:

The probability that exactly three out of six individuals have group A blood, with a 40 percent chance for each individual, is found using the binomial probability formula. The calculation yields approximately 27.648% as the probability for exactly three individuals having group A blood.

Explanation:

The question asks for the probability that exactly three out of six individuals have group A blood, given that 40 percent of all individuals have group A blood. This is a binomial probability problem because there are two outcomes (having group A blood or not) and a fixed number of trials (six individuals).

Let's denote X as the random variable representing the number of individuals with group A blood. The probability of success on any given trial is p = 0.40 (having group A blood). The probability of failure is q = 1 - p = 0.60 (not having group A blood).

The binomial probability formula is:

[tex]P(X = k) = C(n, k) * p^k * q^(n-k)[/tex]

where:

C(n, k) is the combination of n items taken k at a time,p is the probability of success,k is the number of successes,n is the number of trials, andq is the probability of failure.

For our problem:

n = 6 (total number of individuals),k = 3 (number of individuals with group A blood that we want to find the probability for),p = 0.40,q = 0.60.

Plugging these values into the binomial formula gives:

[tex]P(X = 3) = C(6, 3) * (0.40)^3 * (0.60)^3[/tex]

First, calculate the combination:

C(6, 3) = 6! / (3! * (6-3)!) = 20

Then, calculate the probability:

[tex]P(X = 3) = 20 * (0.40)^3 * (0.60)^3 = 20 * 0.064 * 0.216 = 0.27648[/tex]

Hence, the probability that exactly three of the individuals have group A blood is approximately 0.27648 or 27.648%.

Answers

Answer:

v_s,1 > v_s,2 > v_s,3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- Material 1:

         modulus of elasticity = E_1

         density of material = p_1

- Material 2:

         modulus of elasticity = E_2

         density of material = p_2

- Material 3:

         modulus of elasticity = E_3

         density of material = p_3

- E_1 > E_2 > E_3

- p_1 < p_2 < p_3

Find:

- Which material has highest speed of sound from highest to lowest:

Solution:

- The relationship between velocity of sound in a material with its elastic modulus and density is:

                               v_s = sqrt ( E / p )

- Since , v_s is proportional to E^0.5 and inversely proportional to p^0.5, then we have:

                                E_1 > E_2 > E_3

                                p_1^0.5 < p_2^0.5 < p_3^0.5

Divide the two:      (E_1 / p_1)^0.5 > (E_1 / p_1)^0.5 > (E_1 / p_1)^0.5

Samples of laboratory glass are in small, lightpackaging or heavy, large packaging. Suppose that 2% and 1% of thesample shipped in small and large packages, respectively, breakduring transit. (a) If 60% of the samples are shipped in largepackages and 40% are shipped in small packages, what proportion ofsamples break during shipment? (b) Also, if a sample breaks duringshipment, what is the probability that it was shipped in a smallpackage?

Answers

Answer:

a) 1.4% of the samples break during shipment

b) the probability is 4/7 ( 57.14%)

Step-by-step explanation:

a) defining the event B= the sample of laboratory glass breaks , then the probability is:

P(B)= probability that sample is shipped in small packaging * probability that the sample breaks given that was shipped in small packaging +  probability that sample is shipped in large packaging * probability that the sample breaks given that was shipped in large packaging = 0.40* 0.02 + 0.60*0.01 = 0.014

b) we can use the theorem of Bayes for conditional probability. Then defining the event S= the sample is shipped in small packaging . Thus we have

P(S/B)= P(S∩B)/P(B) = 0.40* 0.02 / 0.014= 4/7 ( 57.14%)

where

P(S∩B)= probability that sample is shipped in small packaging and it breaks

P(S/B)= probability that sample was shipped in small packaging given that is broken

you have 200 grams of a radioactive kind of iodine how much will ne left after 120 days if its half life is 60 days?

Answers

By definition, the half life is a quantity is the time it takes to lose half of that quantity.

So, if the half life is 60 days, it means that after 60 days you have lost half the initial amount, i.e. you're left with 100 grams.

After another 60 days, you've lost, again, half of that amount, so you're left with 50 grams.

In other words, every time a half life period passes, you're left with half the quantity you had at the beginning of that period.

So, after two half-life periods (i.e. 120 days), you'll have half of the half of the initial quantity, i.e. one quarter.

Final answer:

X can be expressed as X = R_1 + 2R_2 + 3R_3 + ... + nR_n. To find E[X], use the linearity of expectation and the probabilities of R_i.

Explanation:

To determine E[X], we need to express X in terms of the random variables and then find the expected value. Let R_i denote the event that red ball i is taken before any black ball is chosen. The expression for X is:



X = R_1 + 2R_2 + 3R_3 + ... + nR_n



To find the expected value, we use the linearity of expectation. Since the probabilities for each R_i are the same, we have:



E[X] = E[R_1] + 2E[R_2] + 3E[R_3] + ... + nE[R_n]



Now, we need to determine the probabilities of R_i. Since the balls are drawn without replacement, the probability that red ball i is drawn before any black ball is chosen is:



P(R_i) = (n-i+1)/(n+m-i+1)



Substituting this probability into the expression for E[X], we get:



E[X] = (n/(n+m)) + (2(n-1)/(n+m-1)) + (3(n-2)/(n+m-2)) + ... + (n/n+m)

Answers

Answer:

a) y = 7.74*x + 7.5

b)  y = 1.148*x + 6.036

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

                                  f(x) = 6 - 10*x^2

                                  g(x) = 8 - (x-2)^2

Find:

(a) The line simultaneously tangent to both graphs having the LARGEST slope has equation

(b) The other line simultaneously tangent to both graphs has equation,

Solution:

- Find the derivatives of the two functions given:

                                f'(x) = -20*x

                                g'(x) = -2*(x-2)

- Since, the derivative of both function depends on the x coordinate. We will choose a point x_o which is common for both the functions f(x) and g(x). Point: ( x_o , g(x_o)) Hence,

                                g'(x_o) = -2*(x_o -2)

- Now compute the gradient of a line tangent to both graphs at point (x_o , g(x_o) ) on g(x) graph and point ( x , f(x) ) on function f(x):

                                m = (g(x_o) - f(x)) / (x_o - x)

                                m = (8 - (x_o-2)^2 - 6 + 10*x^2) / (x_o - x)

                                m = (8 - (x_o^2 - 4*x_o + 4) - 6 + 10*x^2)/(x_o - x)

                                m = ( 8 - x_o^2 + 4*x_o -4 -6 +10*x^2) /(x_o - x)

                                m = ( -2 - x_o^2 + 4*x_o + 10*x^2) /(x_o - x)

- Now the gradient of the line computed from a point on each graph m must be equal to the derivatives computed earlier for each function:

                                m = f'(x) = g'(x_o)

- We will develop the first expression:

                                m = f'(x)

                                ( -2 - x_o^2 + 4*x_o + 10*x^2) /(x_o - x) = -20*x

Eq 1.                          (-2 - x_o^2 + 4*x_o + 10*x^2) = -20*x*x_o + 20*x^2

And,

                              m = g'(x_o)

                              ( -2 - x_o^2 + 4*x_o + 10*x^2) /(x_o - x) = -20*x

                              -2 - x_o^2 + 4*x_o + 10*x^2 = -2(x_o - 2)(x_o - x)

Eq 2                       -2 - x_o^2 + 4*x_o+ 10*x^2 = -2(x_o^2 - x_o*(x + 2) + 2*x)

- Now subtract the two equations (Eq 1 - Eq 2):

                              -20*x*x_o + 20*x^2 + 2*x_o^2 - 2*x_o*(x + 2) + 4*x = 0

                              -22*x*x_o + 20*x^2 + 2*x_o^2 - 4*x_o + 4*x = 0

- Form factors:       20*x^2 - 20*x*x_o - 2*x*x_o + 2*x_o^2 - 4*x_o + 4*x = 0

                              20*x*(x - x_o) - 2*x_o*(x - x_o) + 4*(x - x_o) = 0

                               (x - x_o)(20*x - 2*x_o + 4) = 0  

                               x = x_o   ,     x_o = 10x + 2    

- For x_o = 10x + 2  ,

                               (g(10*x + 2) - f(x))/(10*x + 2 - x) = -20*x

                                (8 - 100*x^2 - 6 + 10*x^2)/(9*x + 2) = -20*x

                                (-90*x^2 + 2) = -180*x^2 - 40*x

                                90*x^2 + 40*x + 2 = 0  

- Solve the quadratic equation above:

                                 x = -0.0574, -0.387      

- Largest slope is at x = -0.387 where equation of line is:

                                  y - 4.502 = -20*(-0.387)*(x + 0.387)

                                  y = 7.74*x + 7.5          

- Other tangent line:

                                  y - 5.97 = 1.148*(x + 0.0574)

                                  y = 1.148*x + 6.036

In addition, 20.5% of all persons (malesand females) were college graduates.A) What proportion of persons 25-plus were female college graduates?B) What proportion of females 25-plus were college graduates?

Answers

Answer:

A) 8.9%

B.) 17.35%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the total number of persons age 25-plus

This means 48.7% of X are males.

Number of females become:

(100 - 48.7)x = 51.3%X

IF 23.8% of these males were graduates, then it means

23.8% * 48.7%X of these males are graduates.

0.238 * 0.487 X = 0.116X males are graduates.

That is 11.6% of persons are male College graduates.

If the question states that 20.5% of male and female were college graduates, then to answer question A, to get the number of female college graduates, it becomes:

20.5% - 11.6% = 8.9%

That means 8.9% of persons were female college graduates. .

If 53.1% of persons are females, let y be the percentage of these females that are College graduates.

Then it implies

Y * 51.3 = 8.9

Y = 8.9/51.3

Y = 0.1735 = 17.35%

This means the proportion of females that are College graduates = 17.35%

In this exercise we have to use the knowledge of statistics to describe the results in percentage, in this way we can describe as:

A) [tex]8.9\%[/tex]

B) [tex]17.35\%[/tex]

Knowing that the information given at the beginning of the utterance is:

Let X be the total number of persons age 25-plusThis means 48.7% of X are males.

Calculating the number of women:

[tex](100 - 48.7)X = 51.3\%X[/tex]

[tex]20.5\% - 11.6\% = 8.9\% [/tex]

If 53.1% of human being happen woman, let y exist the allotment of these woman that exist College graduates. Then it indicate that:

[tex]Y * 51.3 = 8.9\\ Y = 8.9/51.3\\ Y = 0.1735 = 17.35\%[/tex]

Assume thevariable is normally distributed. Do you think that thetimes are relatively consistent?

Answers

Answer:

[tex] 8.637 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 28.93[/tex]

[tex] 2.939 \leq \sigma \leq 5.379[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

s represent the sample standard deviation

[tex]\bar x[/tex] represent the sample mean

n=23 the sample size

Confidence=95% or 0.95

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population mean or variance lies between an upper and lower interval".  

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

The Chi Square distribution is the distribution of the sum of squared standard normal deviates .

Calculating the confidence interval

The confidence interval for the population variance is given by the following formula:

[tex]\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{\alpha/2}} \leq \sigma \leq \frac{(n-1)s^2}{\chi^2_{1-\alpha/2}}[/tex]

The sample standard deviation for this case was s = 3.8

The next step would be calculate the critical values. First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

[tex]df=n-1=23-1 =22[/tex]

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of [tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2 =0.025[/tex], and we can use excel, a calculator or a tabele to find the critical values.  

The excel commands would be: "=CHISQ.INV(0.025,22)" "=CHISQ.INV(0.975,22)". so for this case the critical values are:

[tex]\chi^2_{\alpha/2}=36.78[/tex]

[tex]\chi^2_{1- \alpha/2}=10.98[/tex]

And replacing into the formula for the interval we got:

[tex]\frac{(22)(3.8)^2}{36.78} \leq \sigma^2 \leq \frac{(22)(3.8)^2}{10.98}[/tex]

[tex] 8.637 \leq \sigma^2 \leq 28.93[/tex]

Now we just take square root on both sides of the interval and we got:

[tex] 2.939 \leq \sigma \leq 5.379[/tex]

Brian and Jennifer each take out a loan of X. Jennifer will repay her loan by making one payment of 800 at the end of year 10. Brian will repay his loan by making one payment of 1,120 at the end of year 10. The nominal semi-annual rate being charged to Jennifer is exactly one-half the nominal semi-annual rate being charged to Brian. Calculate X.

Answers

Answer:

$568.148

Step-by-step explanation:

We will relate the loan (X) with their nominal annual rate converted semiannually:

Jennifer's loan, [tex]X = 800(1+{\frac{j}{2}})^{-10*2}[/tex]

Brian's loan, [tex]X = 1,120(1+{\frac{2j}{2}})^{-10*2}[/tex]

Since Brain and Jennifer took the same amount loan, the two equations of semi annual rates can be combined thus:

[tex]X = 800(1+{\frac{j}{2}})^{-20}} = 1,120(1+{\frac{2j}{2}})^{-20}\\= {\frac{800}{1,120}}(1+{\frac{j}{2}})=(1+{\frac{2j}{2}})[/tex]

For simplicity, we will use "Y" to represent 0.714  (i.e:  [tex]{\frac{800}{1,120}} = 0.714[/tex] )

Therefore, continuing with the equation above:

[tex]Y + {\frac{Yj}{2}}=1+j\\2Y+Yj=2+2j\\2Y+Yj-2j=2\\Yj-2j=2-2Y\\j(Y-2)=2-2Y\\j={\frac{2-2Y}{Y-2}}[/tex]

substituting the real value of Y (0.714) into the equation, we have:

[tex]j = {\frac{2-(2*0.714)}{0.714-2}}\\={\frac{2-1.428}{-1.286}}\\={\frac{0.572}{-1.286}}\\ =-0.445[/tex]

Solving for the value of X using j, we have:

[tex]X(1+{\frac{j}{2}})=800\\X=568.148[/tex]

Final answer:

This is a mathematical problem about compound interest and loan repayment. It creates two equations based on the given scenario. These equations can be solved to find the initial loan amount X.

Explanation:

This question pertains to the concepts of compound interest and loan repayment in mathematics. Given the terms, we can use the formula for the future value of a loan: FV = P(1 + r/n) ^(nt). Here, FV is the future value of the loan, P is the principal loan amount, r is the annual interest rate, n is the number of times that interest is compounded per time t, and t is the time the money is invested for.

According to the problem, the nominal semi-annual rate charged to Jennifer is exactly half of the rate charged to Brian. Hence, if we denote the rate for Brian as 2r, the rate for Jennifer would be r. We know Jennifer's payment is 800 and Brian's is 1,120; these are the future values of their respective loans.

So, we get two equations from this problem:

1. X(1 + r/2)^(2*10) = 800

2. X(1 + 2r/2)^(2*10) = 1,120

You can solve these equations to find the value of X, which represents the amount they borrowed initially.

Convert the following numbers to Mayan notation. Show your calculations used to get your answers. 135?

Answers

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

In Mayan notation there are only 3 symbols

   dot   .    means one

   line   ---   means five

  snail          means zero

And the are three levels,     the lower means     x 1

                                              the first means       x 20

                                              the second means  x 400

                                              the higher means    x 8000

Then, 135 is lower than 400, so we must start in the first level and need to divide 135 by 20.                         6

                                        20    135

                                                   15

Finally place 6 in the fist level and 15 in the lower lever, like this

And 120 + 15 = 135.          

                             

Final answer:

To convert 135 to Mayan notation, one must work with a base-20 system. In this system, 135 is broken down to (6 x 20) + 15, which is written in Mayan as a bar and three dots on top, and below that, six dots.

Explanation:

The Maya used a vigesimal (base-20) numeral system for their calculations, which is different from our familiar base-10 system. To convert the number 135 to Mayan notation, you need to express it in base-20.

135 in base-20 is calculated as:

135 divided by 20 gives 6 as the quotient and 15 as the remainder.Therefore, 135 can be written as (6 x 20) + 15.In Mayan numerals, 6 is represented by six dots and 15 by a bar (which equals 5) and three dots on top of it.

In Mayan notation, numbers are written vertically with the largest value at the top, so 135 would be represented with a bar and three dots on top (for 15), and under that, six dots (for 6).

(a) going to college,  = [tex]\frac{71+53}{202} \\=0.614[/tex]

(b) not going to college, =[tex]\frac{202-124}{202} \\=0.485[/tex]

(c) on the honor roll, but not going to college

=[tex]\frac{24}{202} \\=0.119[/tex]

Final answer:

The probabilities for a student selected at random from the class are: going to college, not going to college, and being on the honor roll but not going to college, calculated based on provided numbers for a graduating class of 202 students.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we first need to understand the given information about the high school graduating class consisting of 202 students, with 95 on the honor roll and 107 not on the honor roll. Out of those on the honor roll, 71 are going to college, and of those not on the honor roll, 53 are going to college. Let's calculate the probabilities for each scenario.

Probability of Going to College

Total students going to college = Students on the honor roll going to college + Students not on the honor roll going to college = 71 + 53 = 124

Probability = (Total students going to college) / (Total students) = 124 / 202

Probability of Not Going to College

Total students not going to college = Total students - Total students going to college = 202 - 124 = 78

Probability = 78 / 202

Probability of Being on the Honor Roll but Not Going to College

Total students on the honor roll but not going to college = Total students on the honor roll - Students on the honor roll going to college = 95 - 71 = 24

Probability = 24 / 202

At a college, 71% of courses have final exams and 43% of courses require research papers. Suppose that 26% of courses have a research paper and a final exam. Part (a) Find the probability that a course has a final exam or a research paper.

Answers

Answer:

There is an 88% probability that a course has a final exam or a research paper.

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this problem building the Venn's diagram of these probabilities.

I am going to say that:

E is the probability that a course has final exam.

P is the probability that a course requires research paper.

We have that:

[tex]E = e + (E \cap P)[/tex]

In which e is the probability that a course has final exam but does not require research paper and [tex]E \cap P[/tex] is the probability that a course has both of these things.

By the same logic, we have that:

[tex]P = p + (E \cap P)[/tex]

(a) Find the probability that a course has a final exam or a research paper.

This is

[tex]Pr = e + p + (E \cap P)[/tex]

Suppose that 26% of courses have a research paper and a final exam.

This means that

[tex]E \cap P = 0.26[/tex]

43% of courses require research papers.

So [tex]P = 0.43[/tex]

[tex]P = p + (E \cap P)[/tex]

[tex]0.43 = p + 0.26[/tex]

[tex]p = 0.17[/tex]

71% of courses have final exams

So [tex]E = 0.71[/tex]

[tex]E = e + (E \cap P)[/tex]

[tex]0.71 = e + 0.26[/tex]

[tex]e = 0.45[/tex]

The probability is

[tex]Pr = e + p + (E \cap P) = 0.45 + 0.17 + 0.26 = 0.88[/tex]

There is an 88% probability that a course has a final exam or a research paper.

[tex] arctan(\pi/6) \approx \pi/6 = 0.523599[/tex]

The real value for the expression is [tex] arctan (\pi/6) = 0.482348[/tex]

And if we replace into the formula of relative error we got:

[tex] arctan(\pi/6) \approx \pi/6 -\frac{(pi/6)^3}{3} +\frac{(pi/6)^5}{5}-\frac{(pi/6)^7}{7} = 0.48209[/tex]

[tex] \% error= \frac{|0.48209 -0.482348|}{0.482348} * 100= 0.05\%[/tex]

[tex] \arctan (\pi/6) = 0.48[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a

the general term is given by:

[tex] a_n = \frac{(-1)^n}{2n+1} x^{2n+1}[/tex]

And if we replace n=0,1,2,3 we have the first four terms like this:

[tex] n =0,  \frac{(-1)^0}{2*0+1} x^{2*0+1}= x[/tex]

[tex] n =1,  \frac{(-1)^1}{2*1+1} x^{2*1+1}= -\frac{x^3}{3}[/tex]

[tex] n =2,  \frac{(-1)^2}{2*2+1} x^{2*2+1}= \frac{x^5}{5}[/tex]

[tex] n =3,  \frac{(-1)^3}{2*3+1} x^{2*3+1}= -\frac{x^7}{7}[/tex]

[tex] arctan(\pi/6) \approx \pi/6 = 0.523599[/tex]

The real value for the expression is [tex] arctan (\pi/6) = 0.482348[/tex]

And if we replace into the formula of relative error we got:

[tex] \% error= \frac{|0.523599 -0.482348|}{0.482348} * 100= 8.55\%[/tex]

If we add the terms for each value of n and we calculate the error we see this:

n =1

[tex] arctan(\pi/6) \approx \pi/6 -\frac{(pi/6)^3}{3} = 0.47576[/tex]

[tex] \% error= \frac{|0.47576 -0.482348|}{0.482348} * 100= 1.37\%[/tex]

Final answer:

The Maclaurin series for arctan x includes the first four terms: x, -x^3/3, x^5/5, and -x^7/7. To estimate arctan(π/6), we incrementally add these terms, leading to progressively better approximations.

Explanation:

The Maclaurin series for the arctangent function is given by:

arctan x = ∑ n=0 [infinity] (−1)n/(2n +1) x2n+1

(a) Writing out the first 4 terms for n = 0 to 3, we get:

For n = 0: x

For n = 1: −x3/3

For n = 2: x5/5

For n = 3: −x7/7

The series starts with x and alternates between subtracting and adding subsequent odd-powered terms, each divided by the respective odd number.

(b) To estimate arctan(π/6), also known as arctan(1/(√3)), we add terms of the series one by one:

Simplest estimate: arctan(π/6) ≈ π/6

Adding the second term: arctan(π/6) ≈ π/6 - (π/6)3/3

Including the third term: arctan(π/6) ≈ π/6 - (π/6)3/3 + (π/6)5/5

Including the fourth term: arctan(π/6) ≈ π/6 - (π/6)3/3 + (π/6)5/5 - (π/6)7/7

By computing these sums, we get increasingly accurate estimates for the value of arctan(π/6).

If the equation of a circle is (x - 2)2 + (y - 6)2 = 4, it passes through point (5,6). True or false

Answers

Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation:

To know if the circle passes through the given point, we simply insert the coordinates of the given point (5,6) into the general equation Of the Circle. If left hand side of the equation balances with the right hand side, then the circle passed through the point.

The equation of the circle is (x-2)² + (y-6)² = 4

By inserting the given coordinates (5,6) we have.

(5-2)² + (6-6)² = 3² =9

Since the answer gotten is not 4, then the circle does not pass through the point (5,6)

A researcher wants to determine if the nicotine content of a cigarette is related to​ "tar". A collection of data​ (in milligrams) on 29 cigarettes produced the accompanying​ scatterplot, residuals​ plot, and regression analysis. Complete parts a and b below. ) Explain the meaning of Upper R squared in this context. A. The linear model on tar content accounts for​ 92.4% of the variability in nicotine content. B. The predicted nicotine content is equal to some constant plus​ 92.4% of the tar content. C. Around​ 92.4% of the data points have a residual with magnitude less than the constant coefficient. D. Around​ 92.4% of the data points fit the linear model.

Answers

Answer:

Option A The linear model on tar content accounts for​ 92.4% of the variability in nicotine content.

Step-by-step explanation:

R-square also known as coefficient of determination measures the variability in dependent variable explained by the linear relationship with independent variable.

The given scenario demonstrates that nicotine content is a dependent variable while tar content is an independent variable. So, the given R-square value 92.4% describes that 92.4% of variability in nicotine content is explained by the linear relationship with tar content. We can also write this as "The linear model on tar content accounts for​ 92.4% of the variability in nicotine content".

Final answer:

The Upper R squared or the coefficient of determination here represents the percentage of the variability in the nicotine content that can be explained by the tar content in the regression model, which in this case is 92.4%.

Explanation:

In this context, the meaning of Upper R squared is represented by option A. The linear model on tar content accounts for 92.4% of the variability in nicotine content. This indicates that 92.4% of the change in nicotine content can be explained by the amount of tar content based on the linear regression model used. This measure is also known as the coefficient of determination. Meanwhile, options B, C, and D are not correct interpretations of the R squared in this context. Both B and D wrongly relate the percentage to the predictability of the data points and option C incorrectly associates this percentage with the residual magnitude.
