Suppose that the probability distribution for birth weights is normal with a mean of 120 ounces and a standard deviation of 20 ounces. The probability that a randomly selected infant has a birth weight between 100 ounces and 140 ounces is [ Select ] 68%. The probability that a randomly selected infant has a birth weight between 110 and 130 is [ Select ] 68%.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected infant has a birth weight between 100 ounces and 140 ounces is 68%.

The probability that a randomly selected infant has a birth weight between 110 and 130 is 38%.

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 of 120 ounces and a standard deviation of 20 ounces.

This means that [tex]\mu = 120, \sigma = 20[/tex]

The probability that a randomly selected infant has a birth weight between 100 ounces and 140 ounces is

p-value of Z when X = 140 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 100.

X = 140

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

[tex]Z = \frac{140 - 120}{20}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex] has a p-value of 0.84

X = 100

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

[tex]Z = \frac{100 - 120}{20}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1[/tex] has a p-value of 0.16

0.84 - 0.16 = 0.68

The probability that a randomly selected infant has a birth weight between 100 ounces and 140 ounces is 68%.

The probability that a randomly selected infant has a birth weight between 110 and 130

This is the p-value of Z when X = 130 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 110.

X = 130

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

[tex]Z = \frac{130 - 120}{20}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.69

X = 110

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

[tex]Z = \frac{110 - 120}{20}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.31

0.69 - 0.31 = 0.38 = 38%.

The probability that a randomly selected infant has a birth weight between 110 and 130 is 38%.

Answers

Answers:

Discount price = 280.50 dollarsAmount lost =  49.50 dollars

================================================

Explanation:

If it's sold at a loss of 15%, then the store owner loses 0.15*330 = 49.50 dollars

So it was sold for 330- 49.50 =  280.50 dollars

----------------------------

An alternative method:

If the store owner loses 15%, then they keep the remaining 85% since 15%+85% = 100%.

85% of 330 = 280.50 dollars is the discount price

This means 330-280.50 = 49.50 dollars is the amount lost.

Х
?

Answers

Answer: x= 11

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer the question, we first need to know how many miles he/she/it can drive in one hour (to make it simpler. Doing a bunch of calculations involving decimals and other stuff can be very confusing)

335 divided by 5 is 67

Therefore in one hour Ivan can drive 67 miles. We want to know the TIME it takes for Ivan to drive 737 miles and the formula for time is Distance / Speed.

The distance is 737 miles

The speed is 67 miles/hour

737 divided by 67 is 11

Therefore Ivan takes 11 hours to drive 737 hours

Use the discriminant to describe the roots of each equation. Then select the best description.
7x² + 1 = 5x

Answers

Answer:

Imaginary roots

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant of a quadratic in standard form [tex]ax^2+bx+c[/tex] is given by [tex]b^2-4ac[/tex].

Given [tex]7x^2+1=5x[/tex], subtract 5x from both sides so that the quadratic is in standard form:

[tex]7x^2-5x+1=0[/tex]

Now assign variables:

[tex]a\implies 7[/tex] [tex]b\implies -5[/tex] [tex]c\implies 1[/tex]

The discriminant is therefore [tex](-5)^2-4(7)(1)=25-28=\textbf{-3}[/tex].

What does this tell us about the roots?

Recall that the discriminant is what is under the radical in the quadratic formula. The quadratic formula is used to find the solutions of a quadratic. Therefore, the solutions of this quadratic would be equal to [tex]\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{-3}}{2a}[/tex] for some [tex]b[/tex] and [tex]a[/tex]. Since the number under the radical is negative, there are no real roots to the quadratic (whenever the discriminant is negative, the are zero real solutions to the quadratic). Therefore, the quadratic has imaginary roots.

A population is equally divided into three class of drivers. The number of accidents per individual driver is Poisson for all drivers. For a driver of Class I, the expected number of accidents is uniformly distributed over [0.2, 1.0]. For a driver of Class II, the expected number of accidents is uniformly distributed over [0.4, 2.0]. For a driver of Class III, the expected number of accidents is uniformly distributed over [0.6, 3.0]. For driver randomly selected from this population, determine the probability of zero accidents.

Answers

Answer:

Following are the solution to the given points:

Step-by-step explanation:

As a result, Poisson for each driver seems to be the number of accidents.

Let X be the random vector indicating accident frequency.

Let, [tex]\lambda=[/tex]Expected accident frequency

[tex]P(X=0) = e^{-\lambda}[/tex]

For class 1:

[tex]P(X=0) = \frac{1}{(1-0.2)} \int_{0.2}^{1} e^{-\lambda} d\lambda \\\\P(X=0) = \frac{1}{0.8} \times [-e^{-1}-(-e^{-0.2})] = 0.56356[/tex]

For class 2:

[tex]P(X=0) = \frac{1}{(2-0.4)} \int_{0.4}^{2} e^{-\lambda} d\lambda\\\\P(X=0) = \frac{1}{1.6} \times [-e^{-2}-(-e^{-0.4})] = 0.33437[/tex]

For class 3:

[tex]P(X=0) = \frac{1}{(3-0.6)} \int_{0.6}^{3} e^{-\lambda} d\lambda\\\\P(X=0) = \frac{1}{2.4} \times [-e^{-3}-(-e^{-0.6})] = 0.20793[/tex]

The population is equally divided into three classes of drivers.

Hence, the Probability

[tex]\to P(X=0) = \frac{1}{3} \times 0.56356+\frac{1}{3} \times 0.33437+\frac{1}{3} \times 0.20793=0.36862[/tex]

What is Geometric progression?

A geometric progression is a special type of progression where the successive terms bear a constant ratio known as a common ratio. It is also known as GP. The GP is generally represented in form a, ar, ar2.... where a is the first term and r is the common ratio of the progression. The common ratio can have both negative as well as positive values. To find the terms of a geometric series, we only need the first term and the constant ratio.

The geometric progression is of two types. They are

finite geometric progression andinfinite geometric progression.

Given:

x,3,−1/3

First term, a

second term

ar= 3

a= 3/r

third term

ar² = -1/3

a= -1/3r²

So,

3/r= - 1/3r²

9r= 1

r= 1/9

So,

ar= 3

a= 27.

Answer:

[tex]r'(t) = 298t -850[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]q(t) = 1000t - 150t^2[/tex]

[tex]p(t) = 150t - t^2[/tex]

Required

[tex]r'(t)[/tex]

First, we calculate the revenue

[tex]r(t) = p(t) - q(t)[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]r(t) = 150t - t^2 - (1000t - 150t^2)[/tex]

Open bracket

[tex]r(t) = 150t - t^2 - 1000t + 150t^2[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]r(t) = 150t^2 - t^2 + 150t - 1000t[/tex]

[tex]r(t) = 149t^2 -850t[/tex]

Differentiate to get the revenue change with time

[tex]r'(t) = 2 * 149t -850[/tex]

[tex]r'(t) = 298t -850[/tex]
