Answers

Answer 1

Solution :

Given data:

Mean, μ = $87,500

Standard deviation, σ =  $26,000

Sample number, n = 63

a). The value of [tex]$\mu_{x}$[/tex] :

   [tex]$\mu_x=\mu$[/tex]

       = 87,500

b). The value of [tex]$\sigma_x$[/tex] :

    [tex]$\sigma_x = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt n}$[/tex]

   [tex]$\sigma_x = \frac{26000}{\sqrt {63}}$[/tex]

        = 3275.69

c). The shape of the sampling distribution is that of a normal distribution (bell curve).

d). The value z-score for the value =80,000.

   [tex]$z-\text{score} =\frac{\overline x - \mu}{\sigma - \sqrt{n}}$[/tex]

  [tex]$z-\text{score} =\frac{80000-87500}{26000 - \sqrt{63}}$[/tex]

                = -2.2896

                ≈ -2.29

e). P(x > 80000) = P(z > -2.2896)

                           = 0.9890

Let f(x) = 5 + 12x − x^3. Find (a) the x- coordinate of all inflection points, (b)
the open intervals on which f is concave up, (c) the open intervals on which
f is concave down.

Answers

Answer:

A) x = 0.

B) f is concave up for (-∞, 0).

C) f is concave down for (0, ∞).

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the function:

[tex]f(x)=5+12x-x^3[/tex]

A)

We want to find the x-coordinates of all inflection points.

Recall that inflections points (may) occur when the second derivative equals zero. Hence, find the second derivative. The first derivative is given by:

[tex]f'(x) = 12-3x^2[/tex]

And the second:

[tex]f''(x) = -6x[/tex]

Set the second derivative equal to zero:

[tex]0=-6x[/tex]

And solve for x. Hence:

[tex]x=0[/tex]

We must test the solution. In order for it to be an inflection point, the second derivative must change signs before and after. Testing x = -1:

[tex]f''(-1) = 6>0[/tex]

And testing x = 1:

[tex]f''(1) = -6<0[/tex]

Since the signs change for x = 0, x = 0 is indeed an inflection point.

B)

Recall that f is concave up when f''(x) is positive, and f is concave down when f''(x) is negative.

From the testing in Part A, we know that f''(x) is positive for all values less than zero. Hence, f is concave up for all values less than zero. Our interval is:

[tex](-\infty, 0)[/tex]

C)

From Part A, we know that f''(x) is negative for all values greater than zero. So, f is concave down for that interval:

[tex](0, \infty)[/tex]

Suppose we have a function f(x).

(a)f(x) = Vertical stretch for a > 0, vertical shrink a < 0. (x, ay).

f(bx) = Horizonatal compression b > 0, horizontal stretch for b < 0. (bx , y).

f(-x) = Reflection over y axis, (-x, y).

-f(x) = Reflection over x-axis, (x, -y).

Hi there!

A.) Begin by verifying that both endpoints have the same y-value:

g(-1) = 2(-1)² - 4(-1) + 3

Simplify:

g(-1) = 2 + 4 + 3 = 9

g(2) = 2(2)² - 4(2) + 3 = 8 - 8 + 3 = 3

Since the endpoints are not the same, Rolle's theorem does NOT apply.

B.)

Begin by ensuring that the function is continuous.

The function is a polynomial, so it satisfies the conditions of the function being BOTH continuous and differentiable on the given interval (All x-values do as well in this instance). We can proceed to find the values that satisfy the MVT:

[tex]f'(c) = \frac{f(a)-f(b)}{a-b}[/tex]

Begin by finding the average rate of change over the interval:

[tex]\frac{g(2) - g(-1)}{2-(-1)} = \frac{3 - 9 }{2-(-1)} = \frac{-6}{3} = -2[/tex]

Now, Find the derivative of the function:

g(x) = 2x² - 4x + 3

Apply power rule:

g'(x) = 4x - 4

Find the x value in which the derivative equals the AROC:

4x - 4 = -2

Add 4 to both sides:

4x = 2

Divide both sides by 4:

21-B Book Street Books sells about 700700 books each month. The pie chart displays the most popular book categories, by percentage, each month. Find the number of romance books sold each month. Round your answer to the nearest integer.

Answers

Solution :

Given data :

Total number of books sold each month= 700

The charts in the display attached below shows the most popular books category by percentages.

Percentage of romance books sold each = 8.5%

Therefore, the number of romance books sold in each month is given by :

[tex]$=8.5 \% \text{ of }\ 700$[/tex]

[tex]$=\frac{8.5}{100}\times 700$[/tex]

= 59.5

≈ 60 books (rounding off)

You can use the fact that total amount is taken as 100%.

The number of romance books in the given Streets Books is 60

How to find the percentage from the total value?

Suppose the value of which a thing is expressed in percentage is "a'

Suppose the percent that considered thing is of "a" is b%

Then since percent shows per 100 (since cent means 100), thus we will first divide the whole part in 100 parts and then we multiply it with b so that we collect b items per 100 items(that is exactly what b per cent means).

Thus, that thing in number is [tex]\dfrac{a}{100} \times b[/tex]

How to find the number of Romance books if its given that it is 8.5% of the total books present in that book collection?

Since the total amount of books is 700, and its 8.5% books are romance books, thus we have:

[tex]\text{Number of Romance books} = \dfrac{700}{100} \times 8.5 = 59.5 \approx 60[/tex]

A soft drink manufacturer wishes to know how many soft drinks adults drink each week. They want to construct a 95% confidence interval with an error of no more than 0.08. A consultant has informed them that a previous study found the mean to be 3.1 soft drinks per week and found the variance to be 0.49. What is the minimum sample size required to create the specified confidence interval? Round your answer up to the next integer.

Answers

Answer:

The minimum sample size required to create the specified confidence interval is 295.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Variance of 0.49:

This means that [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{0.49} = 0.7[/tex]

They want to construct a 95% confidence interval with an error of no more than 0.08. What is the minimum sample size required to create the specified confidence interval?

The minimum sample size is n for which M = 0.08. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.08 = 1.96\frac{0.7}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.08\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.7[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.7}{0.08}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*0.7}{0.08})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 294.1[/tex]

Rounding up:

The minimum sample size required to create the specified confidence interval is 295.

Area: Change in Dimensions
A rectangle FGHJ has a width of 3 inches and a length of 7 inches

Answers

Answer:

A) 21 in²

B) 42 in²

C) 84 in²

D) I) 4 in²

II) 8 in²

III) 16 in²

E) From our calculations, we can see that doubling one part of the dimensions gives an area that is twice the original one while doubling both dimensions gives an area that four times the original one.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given dimensions of triangle as;

width; w = 3 inches

length; L = 7 inches

A) Area of triangle is;

A = Lw

A = 7 × 3

A = 21 in²

B) If we double the width, then area is;

A = 7 × (2 × 3)

A = 42 in²

Area is twice the original area

C) If we double the width and length, then we have;

Length = 7 × 2 = 14 in

Width = 3 × 2 = 6 in

Area = 14 × 6 = 84 in²

Area is four times the original one

D) Let's try a triangle with base 2 in and height 4 in.

I) formula for area of triangle is;

A = ½ × base × height

A = ½ × 2 × 4

A = 4 in²

II) If we double the width(base) , then area is;

A = ½ × 2 × 2 × 4

A = 8 in²

This is twice the original area.

III) If we double the width(base) and length(height), then we have;

A = ½ × 2 × 2 × 4 × 2

A = 16 in²

This is four times the original area

E) From our calculations, we can see that doubling one part of the dimensions gives an area that is twice the original one while doubling both dimensions gives an area that four times the original one.

Line segment TV is a midsegment of ∆QRS. What is the value of n in the triangle pictured?

A: 6.5

B: 7.6

C: 15.2

D: 3.2

Answers

Answer:

D. 3.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Mid-segment Theorem of a triangle states that the Mid-segment in a triangle is half of the third side of the triangle.

Based on this theorem, we have: TV = ½(RS)

TV = 3n - 2

RS = n + 12

Substitute

3n - 2 = ½(n + 12)

Multiply both sides by 2

2(3n - 2) = (n + 12)

6n - 4 = n + 12

Collect like terms

6n - n = 4 + 12

5n = 16

Divide both sides by 5

5n/5 = 16/5

n = 3.2

Find the sample size necessary to estimate the mean arrival delay time for all American Airlines flights from Dallas to Sacramento to within 6 minutes with 95% confidence. Based on a previous study, arrival delay times have a standard deviation of 39.6 minutes.

Answers

Answer:

The sample size necessary is of 168.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

Based on a previous study, arrival delay times have a standard deviation of 39.6 minutes.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 39.6[/tex]

Find the sample size necessary to estimate the mean arrival delay time for all American Airlines flights from Dallas to Sacramento to within 6 minutes with 95% confidence.

This is n for which M = 6. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]6 = 1.96\frac{39.6}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]6\sqrt{n} = 1.96*39.6[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*39.6}{6}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*39.6}{6})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 167.34[/tex]

Rounding up:

The sample size necessary is of 168.

Answers

Answer:

A sample of 18 is required.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.92}{2} = 0.04[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.04 = 0.96[/tex], so Z = 1.88.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

A previous study indicated that the standard deviation was 2.2 days.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 2.2[/tex]

How large a sample must be selected if the company wants to be 92% confident that the true mean differs from the sample mean by no more than 1 day?

This is n for which M = 1. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]1 = 1.88\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = 1.88*2.2[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (1.88*2.2)^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 17.1[/tex]

Answer:

(a) [tex]H_o:\mu_1 = \mu_2[/tex]     [tex]H_a:\mu_1 > \mu_2[/tex]

(b) [tex]t = 0.74[/tex]

(c) [tex]p =0.2331[/tex]

(d) [tex]CI = (-2.095,4.095)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\bar x_1=21,\ s_1=4,\ n_1=12,\\ \bar x_2=20,\ s_2=3,\ n_2=15[/tex]

Solving (a): The hypotheses

The test is right-tailed, means that the alternate hypothesis will contain greater than sign.

So, we have:

[tex]H_o:\mu_1 = \mu_2[/tex]

[tex]H_a:\mu_1 > \mu_2[/tex]

Solving (b); The test statistic (t)

This is calculated as:

[tex]t = \frac{\bar x_1 - \bar x_2}{\sqrt{\frac{s_1^2(n_1 - 1) + s_2^2(n_2 - 1)}{n_1 + n_2 - 2} * (\frac{1}{n_1} + \frac{1}{n_2})}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]t = \frac{21 - 20}{\sqrt{\frac{4^2(12 - 1) + 3^2(15 - 1)}{12 + 15 - 2} * (\frac{1}{12} + \frac{1}{15})}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{1}{\sqrt{\frac{302}{25} * (0.15)}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{1}{\sqrt{12.08 * 0.15}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1.812}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{1}{1.346}[/tex]

[tex]t = 0.74[/tex]

Solving (c): The P-value

First, we calculate the degrees of freedom

[tex]df = n_1 + n_2 -2[/tex]

[tex]df = 12+15 -2[/tex]

[tex]df = 25[/tex]

Using the t distribution, the p-value is:

[tex]p =TDIST(0.74,25)[/tex]

[tex]p =0.2331[/tex]

Solving (d): The 90% confidence interval

Calculate significance level

[tex]\alpha = 1 - CI[/tex]

[tex]\alpha = 1 - 90\%[/tex]

[tex]\alpha = 0.10[/tex]

Calculate the t value (t*)

[tex]t^* = (\alpha/2,df)[/tex]

[tex]t^* = (0.10/2,25)[/tex]

[tex]t^* = (0.05,25)[/tex]

[tex]t^* = 1.708[/tex]

The confidence interval is calculated using:

[tex]CI = (\bar x - \bar x_2) \± t^* *\sqrt{\frac{s_1^2(n_1 - 1) + s_2^2(n_2 - 1)}{n_1 + n_2 - 2} * (\frac{1}{n_1} + \frac{1}{n_2})}[/tex]

[tex]CI = (21 - 20) \± 1.708 *\sqrt{\frac{4^2(12 - 1) + 3^2(15 - 1)}{12 + 15 - 2} * (\frac{1}{12} + \frac{1}{15})}[/tex]

[tex]CI = 1 \± 1.708 *1.812[/tex]

[tex]CI = 1 \± 3.095[/tex]

Split

[tex]CI = 1 - 3.095 \ or\ 1 + 3.095[/tex]

[tex]CI = -2.095 \ or\ 4.095[/tex]

[tex]CI = (-2.095,4.095)[/tex]

The regression analysis can be summarized as follows: Multiple Choice No significant relationship exists between the variables. A significant negative relationship exists between the variables. For every unit increase in x, y decreases by 12.8094. A significant positive relationship exists between the variables

Answers

Answer:

A significant negative relationship exists between the variables

Step-by-step explanation:

Base on the information given in the question which goes thus : For every unit increase in x, y decreases by 12.8094. The value 12.8094 is the slope which is the rate of change in y variable per unit change in the independent variable. The sign or nature of the slope Coefficient gives an hint about the relationship between the x and y variables. The slope Coefficient in this case is negative and thus we'll have a negative relationship between the x and y variables (an increase in x leads to a corresponding decrease in y). This is a negative association.
