A humanities professor assigns letter grades on a test according to the following scheme.

B: Scores below the top 8% and above the bottom 62%
C: Scores below the top 38% and above the bottom 18%
D: Scores below the top 82% and above the bottom 9%
E: Bottom 9% of scores Scores on the test are normally distributed with a mean of 67 and a standard deviation of 7.3.
Find the numerical limits for a C grade.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The numerical limits for a C grade are 60.6 and 69.1.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

Scores on the test are normally distributed with a mean of 67 and a standard deviation of 7.3.

This means that [tex]\mu = 67, \sigma = 7.3[/tex]

Find the numerical limits for a C grade.

Below the 100 - 38 = 62th percentile and above the 18th percentile.

18th percentile:

X when Z has a p-value of 0.18, so X when Z = -0.915.

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

[tex]-0.915 = \frac{X - 67}{7.3}[/tex]

[tex]X - 67 = -0.915*7[/tex]

[tex]X = 60.6[/tex]

62th percentile:

X when Z has a p-value of 0.62, so X when Z = 0.305.

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

[tex]0.305 = \frac{X - 67}{7.3}[/tex]

[tex]X - 67 = 0.305*7[/tex]

[tex]X = 69.1[/tex]

The numerical limits for a C grade are 60.6 and 69.1.

The average of the values is the ratio of the total sum of values to the number of values.

What is mean?

The mean of the values is the ratio of the total sum of values to the number of values.

Here,
Required  weight mean = 300 * 53 + 400*42 + 400 * 42 / [300 + 400 + 400]

Game consoles: A poll surveyed 341 video gamers, and 95 of them said that they prefer playing games on a console, rather than a computer or hand-held device. An executive at a game console manufacturing company claims that the proportion of gamers who prefer consoles differs from . Does the poll provide convincing evidence that the claim is true

Answers

Answer:

proportion of gamers who prefer console does not differ from 29%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

n = 341 ; x = 95 ; Phat = x / n = 95/341 = 0.279

H0 : p = 0.29

H1 : p ≠ 0.29

The test statistic :

T = (phat - p) ÷ √[(p(1 - p)) / n]

T = (0.279 - 0.29) ÷ √[(0.29(1 - 0.29)) / 341]

T = (-0.011) ÷ √[(0.29 * 0.71) / 341]

T = -0.011 ÷ 0.0245725

T = - 0.4476532

Using the Pvalue calculator from test statistic score :

df = 341 - 1 = 340

Pvalue(-0.447, 340) ; two tailed = 0.654

At α = 0.01

Pvalue > α ; We fail to reject the null and conclude that there is no significant evidence that proportion of gamers who prefer console differs from 29%

Ethan buys a video game on sale. If the video game usually costs $60, and it was on sale for 20% off, how much did Ethan pay? Round to the nearest whole dollar.

Answers

Ethan will pay $31.99 with the discount.

How? This is the answer because:

If 39.99 is 100%, and you are trying to find 20%...

1. you need to set it up as a ratio (of course, you do not need to do this, but it is easier for me to do it this way)

2. the ratio will look like this: 39.99/100% x/20%

3. all we need to do from here is to cross multiply!

4 39.99 x

---------- = ----------

100 20

-price is on the top and percent on the bottom

-you would now do 39.99 times 20

-then divide by 100

5. once you have 20% of 39.99, you need to subtract that answer from the total

6. 39.99 - 7.998 = 31.992 (you need to round to the nearest hundredth)

(1) Both equations in (a) and (b) are separable.

(a)

[tex]\dfrac xy y' = \dfrac{2y^2+1}{x+1} \implies \dfrac{\mathrm dy}{y(2y^2+1)} = \dfrac{\mathrm dx}{x(x+1)}[/tex]

Expand both sides into partial fractions.

[tex]\left(\dfrac1y - \dfrac{2y}{2y^2+1}\right)\,\mathrm dy = \left(\dfrac1x - \dfrac1{x+1}\right)\,\mathrm dx[/tex]

Integrate both sides:

[tex]\ln|y| - \dfrac12 \ln\left(2y^2+1\right) = \ln|x| - \ln|x+1| + C[/tex]

[tex]\ln\left|\dfrac y{\sqrt{2y^2+1}}\right| = \ln\left|\dfrac x{x+1}\right| + C[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac y{\sqrt{2y^2+1}} = \dfrac{Cx}{x+1}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{\dfrac{y^2}{2y^2+1} = \dfrac{Cx^2}{(x+1)^2}}[/tex]

(You could solve for y explicitly, but that's just more work.)

(b)

[tex]e^{x+y}y' = 3x \implies e^y\,\mathrm dy = 3xe^{-x}\,\mathrm dx[/tex]

Integrate both sides:

[tex]e^y = -3e^{-x}(x+1) + C[/tex]

[tex]\ln(e^y) = \ln\left(C - 3e^{-x}(x+1)\right)[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{y = \ln\left(C - 3e^{-x}(x+1)\right)}[/tex]

(2)

(a)

[tex]y' + \sec(x)y = \cos(x)[/tex]

Multiply both sides by an integrating factor, sec(x) + tan(x) :

[tex](\sec(x)+\tan(x))y' + \sec(x) (\sec(x) + \tan(x)) y = \cos(x) (\sec(x) + \tan(x))[/tex]

[tex](\sec(x)+\tan(x))y' + (\sec^2(x) + \sec(x)\tan(x)) y = 1 + \sin(x)[/tex]

[tex]\bigg((\sec(x)+\tan(x))y\bigg)' = 1 + \sin(x)[/tex]

Integrate both sides and solve for y :

[tex](\sec(x)+\tan(x))y = x - \cos(x) + C[/tex]

[tex]y=\dfrac{x-\cos(x) + C}{\sec(x) + \tan(x)}[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{y=\dfrac{(x+C)\cos(x) - \cos^2(x)}{1+\sin(x)}}[/tex]

(b)

[tex]y' + y = \dfrac{e^x-e^{-x}}2[/tex]

(Note that the right side is also written as sinh(x).)

Multiply both sides by e ˣ :

[tex]e^x y' + e^x y = \dfrac{e^{2x}-1}2[/tex]

[tex]\left(e^xy\right)' = \dfrac{e^{2x}-1}2[/tex]

Integrate both sides and solve for y :

[tex]e^xy = \dfrac{e^{2x}-2x}4 + C[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{y=\dfrac{e^x-2xe^{-x}}4 + Ce^{-x}}[/tex]

(c) I've covered this in an earlier question of yours.

(d)

[tex]y'=\dfrac y{x+y}[/tex]

Multiply through the right side by x/x :

[tex]y' = \dfrac{\dfrac yx}{1+\dfrac yx}[/tex]

Substitute y(x) = x v(x), so that y' = xv' + v, and the DE becomes separable:

[tex]xv' + v = \dfrac{v}{1+v}[/tex]

[tex]xv' = -\dfrac{v^2}{1+v}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{1+v}{v^2}\,\mathrm dv = -\dfrac{\mathrm dx}x[/tex]

[tex]-\dfrac1v + \ln|v| = -\ln|x| + C[/tex]

[tex]\ln\left|\dfrac yx\right| -\dfrac xy = C - \ln|x|[/tex]

[tex]\ln|y| - \ln|x|  -\dfrac xy = C - \ln|x|[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{\ln|y| -\dfrac xy = C}[/tex]

We have,

[tex]xy=-42[/tex]

It can be written as:

[tex]y=\dfrac{-42}{x}[/tex]

Equating denominator and 0, we get

[tex]x=0[/tex]

So, the vertical asymptotic is [tex]x=0[/tex].

The degree of numerator is 0 and the degree of denominator is 1.

Since the degree of numerator is greater that the degree of denominator, therefore the horizontal asymptote is [tex]y=0[/tex] and there is no oblique asymptote.

Therefore, [tex]y=x[/tex] is not an asymptote of the given hyperbola and the correct option is C.

A farmer has 80 feet of wire mesh to surround a rectangular pen.
A) Express the area A of the pen as a function of x, also draw the figure of A indicating the admissible values ​​of x for this problem.
B) What are the dimensions of the maximum area pen?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A). Let the dimensions of the rectangular pen are,

Length = l

Width = x

Since, farmer has the wire measuring 80 feet to surround the the pen.

Perimeter of the pen = 80 feet

2(l + x) = 80

l + x = 40

l = 40 - x ------(1)

Area of the rectangular pen = Length × width

                                               = lx

By substituting the value of l from equation (1),

Area (A) of the pen will be modeled by the expression,

A = (40 - x)

A = 40x - x²

B). For maximum area of the pen,

Derivative of the area = 0

[tex]\frac{d}{dx}(A)=0[/tex]

[tex]\frac{d}{dx}(A)=\frac{d}{dx}(40x-x^2)[/tex]

         = 40 - 2x

And (40 - 2x) = 0

x = 20

Therefore, width of the pen = 20 feet

And length of the pen = 40 - 20

                                     = 20 feet

Dimensions of the pen should be 20 feet by 20 feet.
