Answer:
(a) Probability that a family of a returning college student spend less than $150 on back-to-college electronics is 0.0537.
(b) Probability that a family of a returning college student spend more than $390 on back-to-college electronics is 0.0023.
(c) Probability that a family of a returning college student spend between $120 and $175 on back-to-college electronics is 0.1101.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that according to an NRF survey conducted by BIG research, the average family spends about $237 on electronics in back-to-college spending per student.
Suppose back-to-college family spending on electronics is normally distributed with a standard deviation of $54.
Let X = back-to-college family spending on electronics
SO, X ~ Normal([tex]\mu=237,\sigma^{2} =54^{2}[/tex])
The z score probability distribution for normal distribution is given by;
Z = [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] ~ N(0,1)
where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean family spending = $237
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = $54
(a) Probability that a family of a returning college student spend less than $150 on back-to-college electronics is = P(X < $150)
P(X < $150) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{150-237}{54}[/tex] ) = P(Z < -1.61) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 1.61)
= 1 - 0.9463 = 0.0537
The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.61 in the z table which has an area of 0.9463.
(b) Probability that a family of a returning college student spend more than $390 on back-to-college electronics is = P(X > $390)
P(X > $390) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] > [tex]\frac{390-237}{54}[/tex] ) = P(Z > 2.83) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 2.83)
= 1 - 0.9977 = 0.0023
The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2.83 in the z table which has an area of 0.9977.
(c) Probability that a family of a returning college student spend between $120 and $175 on back-to-college electronics is given by = P($120 < X < $175)
P($120 < X < $175) = P(X < $175) - P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] $120)
P(X < $175) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{175-237}{54}[/tex] ) = P(Z < -1.15) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 1.15)
= 1 - 0.8749 = 0.1251
P(X < $120) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{120-237}{54}[/tex] ) = P(Z < -2.17) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 2.17)
= 1 - 0.9850 = 0.015
The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.15 and x = 2.17 in the z table which has an area of 0.8749 and 0.9850 respectively.
Therefore, P($120 < X < $175) = 0.1251 - 0.015 = 0.1101
Northlake high scores to lunch. Soon can eat their lunch in the cafeteria or on an outside patio about 35% of students who have first lunch eat outside compare this with a percenta
Answer:
The proportion of second lunch students who eat outside is more than that for the first lunch students.
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is:
Points Northlake High School has two lunch periods. Students can eat their lunch in the cafeteria or on an outside patio. About 35% of students who have first lunch eat outside. Compare this with the percentage of second-lunch students who eat outside.
Eat Outside Eat Inside Total
First Lunch 0.19 0.35 0.54
Second Lunch 0.22 0.24 0.46
Total 0.41 0.59 1.00
Solution:
The conditional probability of an event B given that another event A has already occurred is:
[tex]P(B|A)=\frac{P(A\cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]
The probability of students who have second lunch (S) and eat outside (O) is:
P (S ∩ O) = 0.22
The probability of students who have second lunch (S) is:
P (S) = 0.41
Compute the proportion of student who eats outside given they have second lunch as follows:
[tex]P(O|S)=\frac{P(S\cap O)}{P(S)}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{0.22}{0.41}\\\\=0.536583\\\\\approx 0.54[/tex]
The proportion of second lunch students who eat outside is more than that for the first lunch students.

Not sure on how to do these questions
Answer:f(8)=g(8)
Step-by-step explanation:
So in these problems f(8) means that you look at the f(x) function (function 1) and plug in 8 for x. Then since it says g(8), you look at the g(x) function and substitute x for 8. If we do that, f(x)=2(8)-3 which is 13. g(x)=3/2x+1=13. The two of them are equal when x=8. So the answer is the third choice
Answer:
f(8)=g(8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Just put the values of given functions in the equation
Two datasets arranged in descending order are; {8, x, 4,1} and {9, y, 5,2}. If the medians of
the two given datasets are equal, what is the value of (y − x)
2
?
Answer:
1Step-by-step explanation:
A data arranged in descending order is a data arranged from the biggest to the smallest. The medisn of the data sets is the value at the middle of the dataset after rearrangment.
For the dataset {8, x, 4,1}, the median will be x and 4. Since we have two median values, we will take their average as shown
Median(1) = [tex]\frac{x+4}{2}[/tex]... 1
Simialrly for dataset {9, y, 5,2}, the median will be y and 5.
Median(2) = [tex]\frac{y+5}{2}[/tex] ...2
Since the medians of the two given datasets are equal, we will equate equation 1 and 2 and calculate for y-x as shown;
[tex]\frac{x+4}{2} = \frac{y+5}{2}[/tex]
[tex]x+4 = y+5\\x-y = 5-4\\x-y = 1\\y-x = -1[/tex]
Therefore y-x = -1
(y-x)² = (-1)²

Fernanda is filling a cylindrical pot with cans of vegetable soup. The pot has a diameter of 15 in. and a height of 10 in. The soup can has a diameter of 4 in. and a height of 5 in. How many cans of soup will it take to fill up the pot?
Answer:
28.125 cans
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Determine the Volume of the Pot
Diameter= 15 inches, therefore Radius=15/2=7.5 Inches
Height =10 Inch
Volume of a cylinder =[tex]\pi r^2h[/tex]
Volume of the Pot [tex]=\pi*7.5^2*10=562.5\pi[/tex] cubic inches.
Step 2: Determine the Volume of each can
Diameter= 4 inch, therefore Radius=4/2=2 Inches
Height =5 In.
Volume of a cylinder =[tex]\pi r^2h[/tex]
Volume of one can [tex]=\pi*2^2*5=20\pi[/tex] cubic inches.
Step 3: Divide the Volume of the Pot by the Volume of the can
To obtain the number of cans that will fill the pot, we divide the Volume of the Pot by the Volume of the can.
Volume of the Pot÷Volume of one can
[tex]=562.5\pi \div 20\pi\\=28.125 \:cans[/tex]
Therefore, we conclude that it takes 28.125 cans to fill up the cylindrical pot of soup.

Step-by-step explanation:
An elementary ntimesn scaling matrix with k on the diagonal is the same as the ntimesn identity matrix with _______ exactly one at least one all of the ______ 0's 1's replaced with some number k. This means it is _______ an invertible matrix, a zero matrix, a singular matrix, a triangular matrix, an identity matrix, and so its determinant is the _______ sum product of its diagonal entries. Thus, the determinant of an elementary scaling matrix with k on the diagonal is nothing.
Answer:
exactly one, 0's, triangular matrix, product and 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
So, let us first fill in the gap in the question below. Note that the capitalized words are the words to be filled in the gap and the ones in brackets too.
"An elementary ntimesn scaling matrix with k on the diagonal is the same as the ntimesn identity matrix with EXACTLY ONE of the (0's) replaced with some number k. This means it is TRIANGULAR MATRIX, and so its determinant is the PRODUCT of its diagonal entries. Thus, the determinant of an elementary scaling matrix with k on the diagonal is (1).
Here, one of the zeros in the identity matrix will surely be replaced by one. That is to say, the determinants = 1 × 1 × 1 => 1. Thus, it is a a triangular matrix.

Audrey collected 4⁄5 pint of blueberries. Addison collected 12 times as many pints of blueberries as Audrey. How many pints of blueberries did Addison collect?
Answer:
48/5≈ 9 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
12 is the same thing as 12/1
so your multiply fractions
4/5 times 12/1
numerator=top
denominator=bottom
so to multiply a fraction you multiply the numerator times the numerator
so in that case your multiplying 4 times 12
=48
to find the bottom half you multiply the denominator times the denominator
in that case is 5 times 1
=5
numerator/denominator
48/5
if you want to simplify it further simply divide 48/5
5 goes into 48 about 9 times
and were left with 3/5
so 9 and 3/5

Answer:
to add to the table, continue the arithmetic sequence in each columnto use the table, extend the third column to 45, or multiply the first row by 9Step-by-step explanation:
The numbers in the first column are an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 2. The next few numbers will be 6, 8, 10, ...
The numbers in the second column are an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 3. The next few numbers will be 9, 12, 15, ...
The numbers in the third column are an arithmetic sequence with a common difference of 5. The next few numbers will be 15, 20, 25, ...
To use the table, Mark can extend each sequence until he has a row with 45 in the third column, or he can multiply or add rows to give a result of 45 in the third column. For example, multiplying the first row by 9 gives 18:27:45 meaning that Mark needs 18 liters of blue and 27 liters of yellow to make 45 liters of green paint.

Find the ratio a:b, if it is given that ...
7a=3b
Answer:
a:b
3:7
Step-by-step explanation:
a:b also means a/b
Taking the equation
7a = 3b
Dividing each side by b
7a/b = 3b/b
7 a/b = 3
Divide each side by 7
a/b = 3/7
The ratio is 3/7
a:b
3:7
Answer:
a:b = 3/7
Step-by-step explanation:
we need to find the ratio a:b which is the same as a/b.
7a=3b
Devide left and right of the = sign by b gives
7a/b = 3 * b/b
7a/b = 3 * 1
7a/b = 3
Multiply left and right of the = sign by 1/7 gives
1/7 * 7a/b = 1/7 * 3
7/7 * a/b = 3/7
1 * a/b = 3/7
a/b = 3/7
Since a/b is the same as a:b, we now have the answer.
a:b = 3/7

A 95% confidence interval of 17.6 months to 49.2 months has been found for the mean duration of imprisonment, mu, of political prisoners of a certain country with chronic PTSD. a. Determine the margin of error, E. b. Explain the meaning of E in this context in terms of the accuracy of the estimate. c. Find the sample size required to have a margin of error of 11 months and a 99% confidence level. (Use sigmaequals45 months.) d. Find a 99% confidence interval for the mean duration of imprisonment, mu, if a sample of the size determined in part (c) has a mean of 36.5 months.
Answer:
a) [tex] E = \frac{49.2-17.6}{2}= 15.8[/tex]
b) For this case we have 95% of confidence that the true mean would be between [tex]\pm 15.8[/tex] units respect the true mean.
c) [tex]n=(\frac{2.58(45)}{11})^2 =111.39 \approx 112[/tex]
So the answer for this case would be n=112
d) [tex]36.5-2.58\frac{45}{\sqrt{112}}=25.53[/tex]
[tex]36.5+2.58\frac{45}{\sqrt{112}}=47.47[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Part a
For this case we know that the cinfidence interval for the true mean is given by:
[tex] \bar X \pm E[/tex]
Where E represent the margin of error. For this case we have the confidence interval at 95% of confidence and we can estimate the margin of error like this:
[tex] E = \frac{49.2-17.6}{2}= 15.8[/tex]
Part b
For this case we have 95% of confidence that the true mean would be between [tex]\pm 15.8[/tex] units respect the true mean.
Part c
The margin of error is given by this formula:
[tex] ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex] (a)
And on this case we have that ME =11 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:
[tex]n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2[/tex] (b)
The critical value for 99% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution. The critical value would be [tex]z_{\alpha/2}=2.58[/tex], replacing into formula (b) we got:
[tex]n=(\frac{2.58(45)}{11})^2 =111.39 \approx 112[/tex]
So the answer for this case would be n=112
Part d
The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:
[tex]\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex] (1)
Replcaing the info given we got:
[tex]36.5-2.58\frac{45}{\sqrt{112}}=25.53[/tex]
[tex]36.5+2.58\frac{45}{\sqrt{112}}=47.47[/tex]
