Answer:
The sample mean that will cut off the upper 95% of all samples of size 20 taken from the population is of 1963.2 pounds.
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.
The average breaking strength of a certain brand of steel cable is 2000 pounds, with a standard deviation of 100 pounds.
This means that [tex]\mu = 2000, \sigma = 100[/tex]
A sample of 20 cables is selected and tested.
This means that [tex]n = 20, s = \frac{100}{\sqrt{20}} = 22.361[/tex]
Find the sample mean that will cut off the upper 95% of all samples of size 20 taken from the population.
This is the 100 - 95 = 5th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.05, so X when Z = -1.645. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]-1.645 = \frac{X - 2000}{22.361}[/tex]
[tex]X - 2000 = -1.645*22.361[/tex]
[tex]X = 1963.2[/tex]
The sample mean that will cut off the upper 95% of all samples of size 20 taken from the population is of 1963.2 pounds.

a truck rental company rents a moving truck for one day by charging $20 plus $0.05 per mile. Write a linear equation that relates the cost C, in dollars, of renting the truck to the number x of miles driven. waht is the cost of renting the truck if the truck is driven 107 miles
Answer:
The linear equation that relates the cost C, in dollars, of renting the truck to the number x of miles driven is 0.05*x + 20 and the cost of renting the truck if the truck is driven 107 miles is 25.35.
Step-by-step explanation:
A linear function is a polynomial function of the first degree that has the form:
f (x) = y = m*x + b
where m is the slope of the function and b is the y-intercept.
The graph of a linear function is always a line.
A truck rental company rents a moving truck for one day by charging $20 plus $0.05 per mile. So, the number of miles travel is represented by "x" and the cost per mile is represented by "c". The y-intercept is the starting cost at zero miles or $20. The slope is the rate per mile or $0.05. Then:
c= 0.05*x + 20
If the truck is driven 107 miles, then:
c= 0.05* 107 + 20
Solving:
c= 25.35
So, the linear equation that relates the cost C, in dollars, of renting the truck to the number x of miles driven is 0.05*x + 20 and the cost of renting the truck if the truck is driven 107 miles is 25.35.

21. Gabe Amodeo, a nuclear physicist, needs 80 liters of a 30% acid solution. He currently has a 20% solution and a 60%
solution. How many liters of each does he need make the needed 80 liters of 30% acid solution?
Gabe needs
liters of the 20% solution.
He also needs
liters of the 60% solution.
Let x be the amount (in liters) of 20% solution that Gabe uses, and y the amount (also in L) of the 60% solution.
He needs 80 L of 30% solution, so that
x + y = 80
0.20x + 0.60y = 0.30 (80) = 24
Solve for y in terms of x :
y = 80 - x
Substitute this into the second equation and solve for x :
0.20x + 0.60 (80 - x) = 24
0.20x + 48 - 0.60x = 24
24 = 0.40x
x = 60
Solve for y :
y = 80 - 60
y = 20
SAT scores are normally distributed with a mean of 1,500 and a standard deviation of 300. An administrator at a college is interested in estimating the average SAT score of first-year students. If the administrator would like to limit the margin of error of the 82% confidence interval to 25 points, how many students should the administrator sample
Answer:
The appropriate solution is "259".
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the question,
[tex]\sigma = 300[/tex]
[tex]M.E=25[/tex]
At 82% CI,
[tex]\alpha = 0.18[/tex]
Critical value,
[tex]Z_c=1.341[/tex]
Now,
The sample size will be:
⇒ [tex]n=(Z_c\times \frac{\sigma}{E} )^2[/tex]
By substituting the values, we get
[tex]=(1.341\times \frac{300}{25} )^2[/tex]
[tex]=(1.341\times 12)^2[/tex]
[tex]=259[/tex]

[I'm supposing that you have to find the value of (1/ 2 + 4i)²]
Answer:
[tex] = \frac{ - 63}{4} + 4i[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
we must know that
(a + b)² = a² + b² + 2ab[tex] {( \frac{1}{2} + 4i) }^{2} = { (\frac{1}{2} })^{2} + {(4i)}^{2} + 2 . \frac{1}{2} . 4i[/tex]
[tex] = \frac{1}{4} + 16 {i}^{2} + 4i[/tex]
since i²= -1[tex] = \frac{1}{4} - 16 + 4i[/tex]
[tex] = \frac{1 - 64}{4} + 4i[/tex]
[tex] = \underline{ \frac{ - 63}{4} + 4i} [/tex]
[I'm also assuming that instead of -153/4 + 4i option A says -63/ 4 + 4i.]
so the answer is option A.

You have 8 quarts of milk. You need 1.25 cups to make one serving of deep fried chicken. How many servings can you make?
Answer: 25.6 servings (partial serving) / 25 servings (whole serving)
Step-by-step explanation:
Concepts:
As we can see from the question, there are two units applied. [Quarts] and [cups]; therefore, we need to do the unit conversion.
1 quart = 4 cups
Solve:
Step one: Convert quarts into cups
1 quart = 4 cups8 quarts = 4 × 8 = 32 cupsStep two: Divide the cups to find the number of servings
32 cups / 1.25 cups = 25.6 servings**Disclaimer** I am not sure about the rules that you apply in mathematics. Here, the answer is not an integer. I am concerned whether you would allow partial servings. In my understanding, the servings shall be a whole, thus should be rounded. However, if you are fine with decimals, then you have the choice.

Refer to the values described below, then identify which of the following is most appropriate: discrete random variable, a. Responses to the survey question "How many pets do you have?" b. Exact heights of the next 100 babies born in a region c. Responses to the survey question "What is your eye color?" d. Exact foot length of humans e. Number of people in families a. Since the outcomes are b. Since the outcomes are countable, this is this is a discrete random variable. random variable.
Answer:
Exact heights of the next 100 babies born in a region.
Step-by-step explanation:
A discrete random variable involves two key factors ; discrete and randomness ; Hence, a discrete random variable should have a finite or countable Number of outputs or values. It should also stem from a random procedure. Here, the height of the next hundred babies is a random procedure as the next 100 babies in the region are unknown until Given birth too and as such all pregnant women have the chance of having their babies among. Since, we are dealing with exact height values which are countable (100), then we this is a discrete random variable.

fractions.
5x – 4y = -4
Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf y= \frac{5}{4}x+1}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the equation of a line and asked to put it into slope-intercept form.
Slope-intercept form is:
[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]
Where:
m= slope b= y-interceptIn order to put the equation into slope-intercept form, we have to isolate the variable y by performing the inverse operation.
[tex]5x-4y= -4[/tex]
5x is being added to -4y. The inverse of addition is subtraction, so subtract 5x from both sides of the equation.
[tex]5x-5x-4y=-4-5x[/tex]
[tex]-4y=-4-5x[/tex]
The variable y is being multiplied by -4. The inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the equation by -4.
[tex]\frac {-4y}{-4}=\frac{-4-5x}{-4}[/tex]
[tex]y= \frac{-4}{-4}+\frac{-5x}{-4}[/tex]
[tex]y=1+\frac{5}{4}x[/tex]
Rearrange the equation.
[tex]y= \frac{5}{4}x+1[/tex]
The fractions are completely simplified, so this is our final answer.
The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is [tex]\bold {y= \frac{5}{4}x+1}}[/tex].
The slope is 5/4 and the y-intercept is 1.
