Answer:
a) 0.0062 = 0.62% probability that the return will exceed 55%.
b) 0.3085 = 30.85% probability that the return will be less than 25%
c) 30%.
d) The 75th percentile of returns is 36.75%.
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.
Mean 30% and standard deviation 10%.
This means that [tex]\mu = 30, \sigma = 10[/tex]
(a) Find the probability that the return will exceed 55%.
This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 55. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{55 - 30}{10}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.5[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9938
1 - 0.9938 = 0.0062
0.0062 = 0.62% probability that the return will exceed 55%.
(b) Find the probability that the return will be less than 25%
p-value of Z when X = 25. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{25 - 30}{10}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.5[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.3085
0.3085 = 30.85% probability that the return will be less than 25%.
(c) What is the expected value of the return?
The mean, that is, 30%.
(d) Find the 75th percentile of returns.
X when Z has a p-value of 0.75, so X when Z = 0.675.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]0.675 = \frac{X - 30}{10}[/tex]
[tex]X - 30 = 0.675*10[/tex]
[tex]X = 36.75[/tex]
The 75th percentile of returns is 36.75%.

Water is flowing into a tank at a rate of 20 cm3/min. At the start, there is 250 cm3 of water in the tank.
(i) How much water will be in the tank after 30 minutes?
(ii) Find the time when there is 1210 cm3 of water in the tank.
Answer:
i) 410 cm³
ii) 48 min
Step-by-step explanation:
we start with 250 cm³.
and then we fill in 20 cm³ per minute.
i)
after 30 minutes we have
250 + 8×20 = 250 + 160 = 410 cm³
ii)
how long (how many minutes) does it take to reach 1210 cm³ in the tank ?
well, first we subtract the start amount (250).
and then we see how often 20 cm³ will "fit" into the remainder. and then we know how many minutes the water has to run.
1210 - 250 = 960 cm³
so, the incoming water needs to reach 960 cm³ to have a total of 1210 cm³.
and
960 cm³ / (20 cm³ / min) = 960 cm³ min / 20 cm³ =
= 960 min / 20 = 48 min

Write the standard form of the equation of the circle with radius 3 and center (−4,−10)
Answer:
(x + 4)² + (y + 10)² = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard equation of a circle is written as seen below
(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
Where (h,k) is at the center and r is the radius
We want to find the standard equation of a circle that has a radius of 3 and a center at (-4,-10)
Remember r = radius so r = 3
and (h,k) is at center so h = -4 and k = -10
Now to find the standard equation of the circle we simply plug in the values of the variables (h,k and r) into the standard equation of a circle formula.
Equation of a circle: (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²
r = 3, h = -4 and k = -10
Plug in values
(x - (-4))² + (y - (-10))² = 3²
Simplify
(x + 4)² + (y + 10)² = 9

The Demand function for a product is given by:
D(q) = - 0.0003q^2 - 0.04q + 23.56
where q is the number of units sold and D(q) is the corresponding price per unit, in dollars. What is the average rate of change of Demand between 40 and 175 units sold?
Answer:
The average rate of change of Demand between 40 and 175 units sold is of -0.1045.
Step-by-step explanation:
Average rate of change:
The average rate of a function f(x) in an interval [a,b] is given by:
[tex]A = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}[/tex]
In this question:
[tex]D(q) = -0.0003q^2 - 0.04q + 23.56[/tex]
What is the average rate of change of Demand between 40 and 175 units sold?
[tex]a = 40, b = 175[/tex]. So
[tex]D(40) = -0.0003*40^2 - 0.04*40 + 23.56 = 21.48[/tex]
[tex]D(175) = -0.0003*175^2 - 0.04*175 + 23.56 = 7.3725[/tex]
So
[tex]A = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a} = \frac{7.3725 - 21.48}{175 - 40} = -0.1045[/tex]
The average rate of change of Demand between 40 and 175 units sold is of -0.1045.

A local church holds an annual raffle to raise money for a new roof. They sell only 500 tickets at $50 each. This year's prizes include: $3,000 in cash, four $100 Amazon gift cards, and two $75 Visa gift cards. You buy one ticket. What is your mathematical expectation for this game
Answer:
The expectation for an event with outcomes:
{x₁, x₂, ..., xₙ}
Each one with probability:
{p₁, p₂, ..., pₙ}
Is:
Ev = x₁*p₁ + ... + xₙ*pₙ
There are 500 tickets sold.
1 of these, wins $3,000 (this is the event x₁)
4 of these, wins $100 (this is the event x₂)
2 of these, wins $75 (this is the event x₃)
The others do not have a prize.
So the probability of winning the $3000 is equal to the quotient between the number of tickets with that prize (1) and the total number of tickets (500)
p₁ = 1/500
Similarly, the probability of winning $100 will be:
p₂ = 4/500
And for the $75 prize:
p₃ = 2/500
Then the probability of not winning is:
p₄ = 493/500
Then the expected value for a single ticket is:
Ev = $0*493/500 + $75*2/500 + $100*4/500 + $3000*1/500
Ev = $7.1
If you take in account that you pay $50 for the ticket, the actual expectation should be:
E = $7.10 - $50 = -$42.90

two cars started to move towards each other at the same time. the speed of the first car was twice the speed of the second car. they met in two hours. if the distance traveled altogether was 300 km find the rates of the cars.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let v be the speed of the slower car
2v is the speed of the faster car
In 2 hrs, the slower car travels a distance of
2 hr(v km/hr) = 2v km
In 2 hrs, the faster car travels a distance of
2 hr(2v km/hr) = 4v km
2v + 4v = 300
6v = 300
v = 50 km/hr
2v = 100 km/hr

Assume that the helium porosity (in percentage) of coal samples taken from any particular seam is normally distributed with true standard deviation 0.74.

Answer:
The answer is "(4.518, 5.182)"
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\sigma = 0.74[/tex]
The aveage porosity for a sample of [tex]n = 19[/tex] specimens is
[tex]\bar{x}=4.85[/tex]
Thus, the[tex]95\%[/tex] confidence interval for the true mean is
[tex]=\bar{x}\pm Z_{\frac{0.05}{2}} \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=4.85\pm 1.96 \frac{0.74}{\sqrt{19}}\\\\=4.85\pm 0.332\\\\=(4.518, 5.182)[/tex]
Therefore, one can state that the true average porosity will lie between 4.518 and 5.182 with the 95\% confidence.
