A manufacturing process produces bags of cookies. The distribution of content weights of these bags is Normal with mean 15.0 oz and standard deviation 1.0 oz. We will randomly select n bags of cookies and weigh the contents of each bag selected. How many bags should be selected so that the standard deviation of the sample mean is 0.1 ounces?

a. 8 bags
b. 10 bags
c. 64 bags
d. 100 bags

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

100 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

S.E = σ/ √n

0.1 = 1 / √n

Square both sides

0.1² = 1² / n

0.01 = 1 / n

0.01n = 1

n = 1 / 0.01

n = 100

About 12.5% of restaurant bills are incorrect. If 200 bills are selected at ran- dom, find the probability that at least 22 will contain an error. Is this likely or unlikely to occur

Answers

Answer:

0.7734 = 77.34% probability that at least 22 will contain an error. Probability above 50%, which means that this is likely to occur.

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed 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.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

About 12.5% of restaurant bills are incorrect.

This means that [tex]p = 0.125[/tex]

200 bills are selected at random

This means that [tex]n = 200[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 200*0.125 = 25[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{200*0.125*0.875} = 4.677[/tex]

Find the probability that at least 22 will contain an error.

Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \geq 22 - 0.5) = P(X \geq 21.5)[/tex], which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 21.5. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{21.5 - 25}{4.677}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.75[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.75[/tex] has a p-value of 0.2266.

1 - 0.2266 = 0.7734

0.7734 = 77.34% probability that at least 22 will contain an error. Probability above 50%, which means that this is likely to occur.

A boat takes 3 days to travel from town A to town B, but it takes 4 days to travel from town B to town A. If a motor-less raft is left alone in the water by town A, how long will it take for the raft to float to town B?

Answers

Answer:

24 days

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance from A to B equals the distance from B to A.

Let the distance between A and B be d.

3 days = 72 hours

4 days = 96 hours

speed = distance/time

speeds are in miles per hour

speed from A to B = d/72

speed from B to A = d/96

difference in speeds:

d/72 - d/96 = d/288

The speed of the water is half of the difference.

speed = d/576

When the raft floats from A to B, it uses only the speed of the water.

d/576 / d/72 = 1/8

The speed of the water is 1/8 the overall speed of the trip from A to B, so traveling by the speed of the water alone must take 8 times longer than with the boat motor.

8 * 3 days = 24 days

Multiple zero is 3; multiplicity is 2

Answers

Answer:

x=3, multiplicity of 2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x - 3)(x - 3)(x + 5)

Rewriting

f(x) = (x - 3)^2(x + 5)

Setting equal to zero

0 =  (x - 3)^2(x + 5)

Using the zero product property

x-3 = 0         x= -5

x=3             x-5

According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, 75% of adults believe that an unattractive smile hurts career success. Suppose that 25 adults are randomly selected. What is the probability that 15 or more of them would agree with the claim?

Answers

Answer:

0.9703 = 97.03% probability that 15 or more of them would agree with the claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they agree with the claim, or they do not. The probability of an adult agreeing with the claim is independent of any other adult, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

75% of adults believe that an unattractive smile hurts career success.

This means that [tex]p = 0.75[/tex]

Suppose that 25 adults are randomly selected.

This means that [tex]n = 25[/tex]

What is the probability that 15 or more of them would agree with the claim?

This is:

[tex]P(X \geq 15) = 1 - P(X < 15)[/tex]

In which:

[tex]P(X < 15) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + ... + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14)[/tex]

14 is below the mean, so we start below and go until the probability is 0. Then

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 14) = C_{25,14}.(0.75)^{14}.(0.25)^{11} = 0.0189[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 13) = C_{25,13}.(0.75)^{13}.(0.25)^{12} = 0.0074[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 12) = C_{25,12}.(0.75)^{12}.(0.25)^{13} = 0.0025[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 11) = C_{25,11}.(0.75)^{11}.(0.25)^{14} = 0.0007[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 10) = C_{25,10}.(0.75)^{10}.(0.25)^{15} = 0.0002[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 9) = C_{25,9}.(0.75)^{9}.(0.25)^{16} \approx 0[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X < 15) = P(X = 10) + P(X = 11) + P(X = 12) + P(X = 13) + P(X = 14) = 0.0002 + 0.0007 + 0.0025 + 0.0074 + 0.0189 = 0.0297[/tex]

And

[tex]P(X \geq 15) = 1 - P(X < 15) = 1 - 0.0297 = 0.9703[/tex]

0.9703 = 97.03% probability that 15 or more of them would agree with the claim.

if for men working for hours for 4 days complete for unit of work then how many unit of work will be completed by two men working for two hours per day?​

Answers

The 2 men working for 2 hours per 2 days will complete 1/2 unit of work. This is calculated by using the proportions formula.

What is the formula for calculating equal proportions?

The formula for the given proportions is,

a: b = c: d

⇒ a/b = c/d

⇒ ad = bc

In this way, the required variable is calculated.

Calculation:

For the given question, the proportion we can write

M1 × H1 × D1: M2 × H2 × D2 = W1: W2

⇒ M1 × H1 × D1 × W2 = M2 × H2 × D2 × W1

Where M1 = 4; H1 = 4; D1 = 4; M2 = 2; H2 = 2; D2 = 2 and W1 = 4

We need to calculate W2 -  required units of work

So, on substituting,

M1 × H1 × D1 × W2 = M2 × H2 × D2 × W1

⇒ 4 × 4 × 4 × W2 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 4

⇒ 64 × W2 = 32

⇒ W2 = 32/64

∴ W2 = 1/2

Thus, the required units of work are 1/2.

So, 2 men working for 2 hours for 2 days will complete 1/2 unit of work.

We can only solve for x if the triangles are similar. The arrows on the left and right legs say those are parallel. Since alternate interior angles at each of the transversals are congruent, the triangles are AA similar.

ΔABC ~ ΔDEC, so we have ...

Step-by-step explanation:

If v = 17 (it is because it is a right triangle, so the pythagorean theorum works, and triangles are 180 degrees, so 180 - 90 = 90, so the other two angles are 45 degrees, meaning that v is the same length as 17.) then

The median age (in years) of the U.S. population over the decades from 1960 through 2010 is given by
f(t) = −0.2176t3 + 1.962t2 − 2.833t + 29.4 (0 ≤ t ≤ 5)

Answers

Considering the given function, we have that:

a) 28.31 years.

b) 0.3382 years a decade.

c) 2.6184.

What is the function?

The median age of the U.S. population in t decades after 1960 is:

f(t) = -0.2176t³ + 1.962t² - 2.833t + 29.4.

1970 is one decade after 1960, hence the median was:

f(1) = -0.2176 x 1³ + 1.962 x 1² - 2.833 x 1 + 29.4 = 28.31 years.

The rate of change was is the derivative when t = 1, hence:

f'(t) = -0.6528t² + 3.924t - 2.933

f'(1) = -0.6528 x 1² + 3.924 x 1 - 2.933 = 0.3382 years a decade.

The second derivative is:

f''(t) = -1.3056t + 3.924

Hence:

f''(1) = -1.3056 x 1 + 3.924 = 2.6184.
