Suppose a research company takes a random sample of 45 business travelers in the financial industry and determines that the sample average cost of a domestic trip is $1,192, with a sample standard deviation of $279. Construct a 98% confidence interval for the population mean (for domestic trip) from these sample data. Round your answers to 3 decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

98% confidence interval for the population mean =(1095.260,1288.740)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

n=45

[tex]\mu=1192[/tex]

Standard deviation,[tex]\sigma=279[/tex]

We have to construct a 98% confidence interval for the population mean.

Critical value of z at 98% confidence, Z =2.326

Confidence interval is given by

[tex](\mu\pm Z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})[/tex]

Using the formula

98% confidence interval is given by

[tex]=(1192\pm 2.326\times \frac{279}{\sqrt{45}})[/tex]

[tex]=(1192\pm 96.740)[/tex]

=[tex](1192-96.740,1192+96.740)[/tex]

=[tex](1095.260,1288.740)[/tex]

Hence, 98% confidence interval for the population mean (1095.260,1288.740)

Julie and Mona know that that Earth’s average distance from the Sun is approximately 93 million miles and it takes 1 year to complete an orbit of the Sun. A new asteroid has been discovered orbiting the Sun at an average distance of 1,488 million miles. How long will it take for the asteroid, in Earth years, to complete one orbit of the Sun.

Answers

Answer:

16 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Earth's distance from sun = 93 million miles

Number of years to complete an orbit = 1 year

Average orbiting distance of new asteroid = 1488 million miles

Number of years to complete an orbit = x

93,000,000 Miles = 1

1488000000 miles = x

Cross multiply :

93000000x = 1488000000

x = 1488000000 / 93000000

x = 16 years

Period taken to orbit the sun = 16 years

Answer: 64 Earth years...

Which solution finds the value of x in the triangle below?

A right triangle is shown. The hypotenuse has a length of 8. Another side has a length of x. The angle between the hypotenuse and the other side is 60 degrees.

Answers

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, and one of the angles measures 60 degrees, we can conclude that the last side measures 30 degrees.

We can see that this is a 30-60-90 degree triangle.

The rules of 30-60-90 degree triangles are that the side opposite the 90 degree angle, or the hypotenuse can be measured with the variable [tex]2a[/tex]. The side opposite the 30 degree angle can be measured with [tex]a[/tex], and the side opposite the 60 degree angle will be measured with [tex]a\sqrt{3}[/tex].

We can see that 8 represents [tex]2a[/tex] because it is the hypotenuse. Since the side marked [tex]x[/tex] is separated by the hypotenuse by an angle of 60 degrees, we note that side marked [tex]x[/tex] is opposite the angle measuring 30 degrees. We note that the side opposite 30 degrees is marked [tex]a[/tex], and since we already know that 8 is equal to [tex]2a[/tex], we realize that the side marked x is equal to [tex]a[/tex], or 4.

The value of x in the triangle is 4.

What is the Pythagorean theorem ?

The square of the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle equals the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides.

It is given this is a right triangle, and one of the angles measures 60 degrees, we can conclude that the last side measures 30 degrees. By the sum of all the three interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees

The side opposite the 90 degree angle, or the hypotenuse can be measured with the variable '2a' . The side opposite the 30 degree angle can be measured with 'a' , and the side opposite the 60 degree angle will be measured with 'a√3'.

8 represents '2a' because it is the hypotenuse. Since the side marked x is separated by the hypotenuse by an angle of 60 degrees, we note that side marked x is opposite the angle measuring 30 degrees. We note that the side opposite 30 degrees is marked 'a', and since we already know that 8 is equal to '2a', we realize that the side marked x is equal to

'a' , or 4.

2a=8

a=4

x=a=4

so, the the value of x in the triangle is 4.

Find functions f(x) and g(x) so the given function can be expressed as
h(x) = f(g(x)).
(Use non-identity functions for
f(x) and g(x).)
h(x) = 5/x-4

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{5}{x}[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = x - 4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Composite function:

[tex]h(x) = f(g(x)) = (f \circ g)(x)[/tex]

h(x) = 5/x-4

We have x on the denominator and not the numerator, so the outer function is given by:

The denominator is x - 4, so this is the inner function, so:

Question 1a) Suppose you sample 100 times at random with replacement from a population in which 26% of the individuals are successes. Write a Python expression that evaluates to the chance that the sample has 20 successes.

Answers

Answer:

from math import comb

n = 100

x = 20

p = 0.26

q = 0.76

print(comb(n, x)*(p**x)*(q**(n-x)))

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of trials, n = 100

P(success), p = 26% = 0.26

P(success)' = 1 - p = 1 - 0.26 = 0.74

Chance that sample has 20 successes = x

This problem meets the condition for a binomial probability distribution :

A machine has two components both of which have a lifespan, in months, that is exponentially distributed with mean 8. The lifespan of the two components are independent. Find the probability both components are functioning in 12 months.

Answers

Answer:

0.0498

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question,

x~exponential

we have

mean = 1/λ = 8

from here we cross multiply, when we do

such that

λ = 1/8

probability of x functioning in 8 months

= e^-λx

= e^-1/8x12

= e^-1.5

= 0.2231

i got this value through the use of a scientific calculator

then the probability that these two are greater than 12

= 0.2231²

= 0.04977

= approximately 0.0498

therefore the probability that both components are functioning in 12 months is 0.0498

opens up, (1, 3), narrower

opens up, (-1, -3), wider

opens up, (1, -3), narrower

Answers

Answer:

The answer is D, the last one.

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (d)  opens up, (1, -3), narrower

Step-by-step explanation:

The factor of +2 multiplying the function tells you the graph is expanded vertically by a factor of 2. The parent function opens upward, and the positive sign on this expansion factor does not change that. The expansion means that y-values will be farther from the vertex for the same x-value distance from the vertex. This give the appearance of a narrower graph.

As always, the transformation ...

  f(x -h) +k

moves the vertex from (0, 0) to (h, k). Here, you have (h, k) = (1, -3), so that is the location of the vertex of the transformed function.
