The total amount spent by the two boys is $300.

An expression in mathematics is a combination of terms both constant and variable. For example, we can write the expressions as -

2x + 3y + 5

2z + y

x + 3y

Given is that Tyler and Gabe went to the arcade and played the same two games. Tyler played five rounds of each game for 30$.

We can write the total amount spent by the two boys as -

total amount = 2 x cost of each game x total number of games played

total amount = 2 x 30 x 5

total amount = 10 x 30

total amount = 300

Therefore, the total amount spent by the two boys is $300.

It does not appear that police can use a shoe print length to estimate the height of a​ male.

The given parameters are:

[tex]\begin{array}{cccccc}{Shoe\ Print} & {28.6} & {29.4} & {32.2} & {32.4} & {27.3} \ \\ Height (cm) & {172.5} & {176.7} & {188.4} & {170.1} & {179.2} \ \end{array}[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]\begin{array}{cccccc}{x} & {28.6} & {29.4} & {32.2} & {32.4} & {27.3} \ \\ y & {172.5} & {176.7} & {188.4} & {170.1} & {179.2} \ \end{array}[/tex]

See attachment for scatter plot

To determine the correlation coefficient, we extend the table as follows:

[tex]\begin{array}{cccccc}{x} & {28.6} & {29.4} & {32.2} & {32.4} & {27.3} & y & {172.5} & {176.7} & {188.4} & {170.1} & {179.2} & x^2 & {817.96} & {864.36} & {1036.84} & {1049.76} & {745.29} & y^2 & {29756.25} & {31222.89} & {35494.56} & {28934.01} & {32112.64} & x \times y & {4933.5} & {5194.98} & {6066.48} & {5511.24} & {4892.16} \ \end{array}[/tex]

The correlation coefficient (r) is:

[tex]r = \frac{\sum(x - \bar x)(y - \bar y)}{\sqrt{SS_x * SS_y}}[/tex]

We have:

[tex]n =5[/tex]

[tex]\sum xy =4933.5+5194.98+6066.48+5511.24+4892.16 =26598.36[/tex]

Calculate mean of x and y

[tex]\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n} = \frac{149.9}{5} = 29.98[/tex]

[tex]\bar y = \frac{\sum y}{n} = \frac{886.9}{5} = 177.38[/tex]

Calculate SSx and SSy

[tex]SS_x = \sum (x - \bar x)^2 =(28.6-29.98)^2 + (29.4-29.98)^2 + (32.2-29.98)^2 + (32.4-29.98)^2 + (27.3-29.98)^2 =20.208[/tex]

[tex]SS_y = \sum (y - \bar x)^2 =(172.5-177.38)^2 + (176.7-177.38)^2 + (188.4-177.38)^2 + (170.1-177.38)^2 + (179.2-177.38)^2 =202.028[/tex]

Calculate [tex]\sum(x - \bar x)(y - \bar y)[/tex]

[tex]\sum(x - \bar x)(y - \bar y) = (28.6-29.98)*(172.5-177.38) + (29.4-29.98)*(176.7-177.38) + (32.2-29.98)*(188.4-177.38) + (32.4-29.98)*(170.1-177.38) + (27.3-29.98) *(179.2-177.38) =9.098[/tex]

So:

[tex]r = \frac{\sum(x - \bar x)(y - \bar y)}{\sqrt{SS_x * SS_y}}[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{9.098}{\sqrt{20.208 * 202.028}}[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{9.098}{\sqrt{4082.581824}}[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{9.098}{63.90}[/tex]

[tex]r = 0.142[/tex]

Calculate test statistic:

[tex]t = \frac{r}{\sqrt{\frac{1 - r^2}{n-2}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{0.142}{\sqrt{\frac{1 - 0.142^2}{5-2}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{0.142}{\sqrt{\frac{0.979836}{3}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{0.142}{\sqrt{0.326612}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{0.142}{0.5715}[/tex]

[tex]t = 0.248[/tex]

[tex]t = 0.248[/tex]

[tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]

The value is:

Answer:

[tex]\frac{4}{52} \times \frac{4}{51} = \frac{16}{2652} = 0.00603 = 0.603\%[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 52 cards in a standard deck, and there are 4 suits for each card. Therefore there are 4 twos and 4 tens.

At first we have 52 cards to choose from, and we need to get 1 of the 4 twos, therefore the probability is just

[tex]\frac{4}{52}[/tex]

After we've chosen a two, we need to choose one of the 4 tens. But remember that we're now choosing out of a deck of just 51 cards, since one card was removed. Therefore the probability is

[tex]\frac{4}{51}[/tex]

Now to get the total probability we need to multiply the two probabilities together

[tex]\frac{4}{52} \times \frac{4}{51} = \frac{16}{2652} = 0.00603 = 0.603\%[/tex]

Answer:

a) 0.5768 = 57.68% probability that the shop sells at least 3 in a week.

b) 0.988 = 98.8% probability that the shop sells at most 7 in a week.

c) 0.0104 = 1.04% probability that the shop sells more than 20 in a month.

Step-by-step explanation:

For questions a and b, the Poisson distribution is used, while for question c, the normal approximation is used.

Poisson distribution:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\lambda}*\lambda^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of successes

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.

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.

The Poisson distribution can be approximated to the normal with [tex]\mu = \lambda, \sigma = \sqrt{\lambda}[/tex], if [tex]\lambda>10[/tex].

Poisson variable with the mean 3

This means that [tex]\lambda= 3[/tex].

(a) At least 3 in a week.

This is [tex]P(X \geq 3)[/tex]. So

[tex]P(X \geq 3) = 1 - P(X < 3)[/tex]

In which:

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\lambda}*\lambda^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0498[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.1494[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2240[/tex]

So

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0498 + 0.1494 + 0.2240 = 0.4232[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 1 - 0.4232 = 0.5768[/tex]

0.5768 = 57.68% probability that the shop sells at least 3 in a week.

(b) At most 7 in a week.

This is:

[tex]P(X \leq 7) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\lambda}*\lambda^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.0498[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{1}}{(1)!} = 0.1494[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{2}}{(2)!} = 0.2240[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{3}}{(3)!} = 0.2240[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 4) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{4}}{(4)!} = 0.1680[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 5) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{5}}{(5)!} = 0.1008[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 6) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{6}}{(6)!} = 0.0504[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 7) = \frac{e^{-3}*3^{7}}{(7)!} = 0.0216[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \leq 7) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) + P(X = 7) = 0.0498 + 0.1494 + 0.2240 + 0.2240 + 0.1680 + 0.1008 + 0.0504 + 0.0216 = 0.988[/tex]

0.988 = 98.8% probability that the shop sells at most 7 in a week.

(c) More than 20 in a month (4 weeks).

4 weeks, so:

[tex]\mu = \lambda = 4(3) = 12[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\lambda} = \sqrt{12}[/tex]

The probability, using continuity correction, is P(X > 20 + 0.5) = P(X > 20.5), which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 20.5.

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

[tex]Z = \frac{20 - 12}{\sqrt{12}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.31[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.31[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9896.

1 - 0.9896 = 0.0104

0.0104 = 1.04% probability that the shop sells more than 20 in a month.

The probability of the selling the video recorders for considered cases are:

Let X ~ Pois(λ)

Then we have:

E(X) = λ = Var(X)

Since standard deviation is square root (positive) of variance,

Thus,

Standard deviation of X = [tex]\sqrt{\lambda}[/tex]

Its probability function is given by

f(k; λ) = Pr(X = k) = [tex]\dfrac{\lambda^{k}e^{-\lambda}}{k!}[/tex]

For this case, let we have:

X = the number of weekly demand of video recorder for the considered shop.

Then, by the given data, we have:

X ~ Pois(λ=3)

Evaluating each event's probability:

Case 1: At least 3 in a week.

[tex]P(X > 3) = 1- P(X \leq 2) = \sum_{i=0}^{2}P(X=i) = \sum_{i=0}^{2} \dfrac{3^ie^{-3}}{i!}\\\\P(X > 3) = 1 - e^{-3} \times \left( 1 + 3 + 9/2\right) \approx 1 - 0.4232 = 0.5768[/tex]

Case 2: At most 7 in a week.

[tex]P(X \leq 7) = \sum_{i=0}^{7}P(X=i) = \sum_{i=0}^{7} \dfrac{3^ie^{-3}}{i!}\\\\P(X \leq 7) = e^{-3} \times \left( 1 + 3 + 9/2 + 27/6 + 81/24 + 243/120 + 729/720 + 2187/5040\right)\\\\P(X \leq 7) \approx 0.9881[/tex]

Case 3: More than 20 in a month(4 weeks)

That means more than 5 in a week on average.

[tex]P(X > 5) = 1- P(X \leq 5) =\sum_{i=0}^{5}P(X=i) = \sum_{i=0}^{5} \dfrac{3^ie^{-3}}{i!}\\\\P(X > 5) = 1- e^{-3}( 1 + 3 + 9/2 + 27/6 + 81/24 + 243/120)\\\\P(X > 5) \approx 1 - 0.9161 \\ P(X > 5) \approx 0.0839[/tex]

Answer:

Z = 1

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 (mu) that equals 100 with a standard deviation (sigma) of 18

[tex]\mu = 100, \sigma = 18[/tex]

Sample of 9:

This means that [tex]n = 9, s = \frac{18}{\sqrt{9}} = 6[/tex]

What will be the computed z-score with a sample mean (x-bar) of 106?

This is Z when X = 106. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{106 - 100}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex]

So Z = 1 is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

this is an inverse function, and to solve an inverse function you would :

swap x and g(x) without bringing the x coefficient with it, just simply swap the variables. Then, solve for g(x), and that's it

the first question's answer is :

g(x) = 3x + 2

x = 3(g(x)) + 2

x - 2 = 3(g(x))

(x - 2)/3 = g(x)

the second one is:

g(x) = 4 - 5x

x = 4 - 5(g(x))

x - 4 = -5(g(x))

(x-4)/-5 = g(x)

g(x) = 3x + 2

y = 3x + 2

x = 3y + 2

3y = x - 2

y = x/3 - 2/3

inverse g(x) = (x - 2) / 3

g(x) = 4 - 5x

Median

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the median to measure central tendency, rather than the mean, is better for a skewed data set.

Since a skewed data set will have either very high or low extreme data points, the mean will be less representative and accurate when measuring central tendency.

Using the median will measure this better because it is not as vulnerable as the mean when there are extreme data points.

So, the answer is the median.
