A manufacturer knows that their items have a normally distributed length, with a mean of 15.4 inches, and standard deviation of 3.5 inches. If 16 items are chosen at random, what is the probability that their mean length is less than 16.8 inches

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.9452 = 94.52% probability that their mean length is less than 16.8 inches.

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 15.4 inches, and standard deviation of 3.5 inches.

This means that [tex]\mu = 15.4, \sigma = 3.5[/tex]

16 items are chosen at random

This means that [tex]n = 16, s = \frac{3.5}{\sqrt{16}} = 0.875[/tex]

What is the probability that their mean length is less than 16.8 inches?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 16.8. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{16.8 - 15.4}{0.875}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.6[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.6[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9452.

0.9452 = 94.52% probability that their mean length is less than 16.8 inches.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What is radioactive isotope?

Radioisotope, radionuclide, or radioactive nuclide, any of several species of the same chemical element with different masses whose nuclei are unstable and dissipate excess energy by spontaneously emitting radiation in the form of alpha, beta, and gamma rays.

Here, mass decreases by 73% every hour.

Weight of element X is 680 grams.

According to question,

f(t) = 680 (1 - 73%)ⁿ

f(t) = 680 (1 - 0.73)ⁿ

f(t) = 680 X 0.27ⁿ

f(t) = 680 X 0.9778ⁿ

f(t) = 680 X (1 - 0.02322)ⁿ

Thus, the element decay percentage rate of change 2.22% per minute.

3.4 0.8 0.6 find the volume of the rectangular prism in cubic feet ​

Answers

Given:

Consider the dimensions of the rectangular prism are 3.4 ft by 0.8 ft by 0.6 ft.

To find:

The volume of rectangular prism.

Solution:

The volume of a cuboid or rectangular prism is:

[tex]V=l\times b\times h[/tex]

Where, l is length, b is breadth and h is height of the prism.

The dimensions of the rectangular prism are 3.4 ft by 0.8 ft by 0.6 ft. So, the volume of the prism is:

[tex]V=3.4\times 0.8\times 0.6[/tex]

[tex]V=1.632[/tex]

Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is 1.632 cubic feet ​.

HELP TIMER Write the equation of a hyperbola centered at the origin with x-intercept +/- 4 and foci of +/-2(squareroot 5)

Answers

Given:

x-intercepts of the hyperbola are ±4.

The foci of hyperbola are [tex]\pm 2\sqrt{5}[/tex].

Center of the hyperbola is at origin.

To find:

The equation of the hyperbola.

Solution:

The general equation of a hyperbola:

[tex]\dfrac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}-\dfrac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1[/tex]            ...(i)

Where, (h,k) is the center of the hyperbola, ±a are x-intercepts, [tex](\pm c,0)[/tex] are foci.

Center of the hyperbola is at origin. So, h=0 and k=0.

x-intercepts of the hyperbola are ±4. So,

[tex]\pm a=\pm 4[/tex]

[tex]a=4[/tex]

The foci of hyperbola are [tex]\pm 2\sqrt{5}[/tex].

[tex]\pm c=\pm 2\sqrt{5}[/tex]

[tex]c=2\sqrt{5}[/tex]

We know that,

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

[tex](4)^2+b^2=(2\sqrt{5})^2[/tex]

[tex]16+b^2=20[/tex]

[tex]b^2=20-16[/tex]

[tex]b^2=4[/tex]

Taking square root on both sides, we get

[tex]b=\sqrt{4}[/tex]                    [b>0]

[tex]b=2[/tex]

Substituting [tex]h=0,k=0,a=4,b=2[/tex] in (i), we get

[tex]\dfrac{(x-0)^2}{4^2}-\dfrac{(y-0)^2}{2^2}=1[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{x^2}{4^2}-\dfrac{y^2}{2^2}=1[/tex]

Therefore, the correct option is (d).

Step-by-step explanation:

Proved case for n

2+4+6+...+2n = n(n+1) ................(1)

for n = k + 1, we replace n by k and add n = k+1 on both sides (

2+4+6+...+2k+2(k+1) = k(k+1) + 2(k+1))

rearrange by factoring the right-hand-side

2+4+6+...+2k+2(k+1) = (k+1)(k+2)

which if we substitute n=k+1, we get back

2+4+6+...+2(n-1) + 2(n) = n(n+1)  ...............(2)

This means that equation (1) is applicable to case n+1, and the proof by induction is completed.

Percentage greater than or equal to 233

From the box plot, the maximum is:

[tex]Max = 244[/tex]

The minimum is:

[tex]Min = 152[/tex]

Percentage greater than 233 is calculated as:

[tex]\% = \frac{Max - 233}{Max - Min}[/tex]

[tex]\% = \frac{244 - 233}{244-152}[/tex]

[tex]\% = \frac{11}{92}[/tex]

An inverted pyramid is being filled with water at a constant rate of 70 cubic centimeters per second. The pyramid, at the top, has the shape of a square with sides of length 8 cm, and the height is 15 cm. Find the rate at which the water level is rising when the water level is 4 cm.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{dh}{dt}=1.45cmsec^{-1}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate of Water Fill [tex]R=\frac{dv}{dt}=70cm^3[/tex]

Length [tex]l=8cm[/tex]

Height [tex]H=15cm[/tex]

Water level [tex]L_w= 4cm[/tex]

Generally the equation for relationship b/w h and a is mathematically given by

Since by the properties of similar triangles

 [tex]k=\frac{h}{1/2}[/tex]

Let

 [tex]h=15cm \\\\a=8cm[/tex]

 [tex]k=\frac{h}{1/2a}[/tex]

 [tex]k=\frac{15}{4}[/tex]

Therefore

 [tex]\frac{h}{1/2a}=\frac{15}{4}[/tex]

 [tex]a=\frac{8h}{15}[/tex]

Generally the equation for volume of Pyramid is mathematically given by

 [tex]V=\frac{1}{3}ah^2h[/tex]

Subsitute a

 [tex]V=\frac{1}{3}(\frac{8h}{15})h^2h[/tex]

Therefore

 [tex]\frac{dv}{dt}=\frac{(\frac{1}{3}(\frac{8h}{15})h^2h)}{dt}[/tex]

 [tex]\frac{dv}{dt}=\frac{64}{255}(h^2\frac{dh}{dt})[/tex]

Since

 [tex]\frac{dv}{dt}=70cm^3s^{-1}[/tex]

Therefore

 [tex]70cm^3s^{-1}=\frac{64}{255}(h^2\frac{dh}{dt})[/tex]

 [tex]\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{70}{169}*\frac{225}{64}[/tex]

What is an equation?

In mathematics, an equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.

Here, we have,

The given equation is 13 - 2w = w + 6.

We need to solve the equation by squaring both sides of the equation.

Now,  13 - 2w = w + 6 squaring both sides of the equation.

That is, (13-2w)²= 169 - 52w + 4w²

(w+6)²= w²+ 12w + 36

Setting them equal, we get

169 - 52w + 4w² = w² + 12w + 36

⇒3w²- 64w + 133 = 0

Now, using the quadratic formula, we get

x = (64±√(64² - 4×3×133))/6

⇒x = (64±√2500)/6.

⇒x = (64±√50)/6.

⇒x = 19 or 14/6 = 7/3.

Solving the original equation, we get

7 = 3w⇒w = 7/3

Therefore, x = 19 is the extraneous solution Li Juan obtained.
