The cost of 5 gallons of ice cream has a variance of 64 with a mean of 34 dollars during the summer. What is the probability that the sample mean would differ from the true mean by less than 1.1 dollars if a sample of 38 5-gallon pails is randomly selected

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.5587 = 55.87% probability that the sample mean would differ from the true mean by less than 1.1 dollars.

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 cost of 5 gallons of ice cream has a variance of 64 with a mean of 34 dollars during the summer.

This means that [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{64} = 8, \mu = 34[/tex]

Sample of 38

This means that [tex]n = 38, s = \frac{8}{\sqrt{38}}[/tex]

What is the probability that the sample mean would differ from the true mean by less than 1.1 dollars ?

P-value of Z when X = 34 + 1.1 = 35.1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 34 - 1.1 = 32.9. So

X = 35.1

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{35.1 - 34}{\frac{8}{\sqrt{38}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.77[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.77[/tex] has a p-value of 0.77935

X = 32.9

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

[tex]Z = \frac{32.9 - 34}{\frac{8}{\sqrt{38}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.77[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.77[/tex] has a p-value of 0.22065

0.77935 - 0.22065 = 0.5587

0.5587 = 55.87% probability that the sample mean would differ from the true mean by less than 1.1 dollars.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  1.4

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the multiplier n such that ...

  arc length = n × radius

  n = arc length / radius = (9.8 cm)/(7 cm)

  n = 1.4

The subtended arc is 1.4 times as long as the circle's radius.

Find the absolute extrema of the function over the region R. (In each case, R contains the boundaries.) Use a computer algebra system to confirm your results. (Order your answers from smallest to largest x, then from smallest to largest y.)
f(x, y) = x2 − 4xy + 5
R = {(x, y): 1 ≤ x ≤ 4, 0 ≤ y ≤ 2}

Answers

f(x, y) = x ² - 4xy + 5

has critical points where both partial derivatives vanish:

f/∂x = 2x - 4y = 0   ==>   x = 2y

f/∂y = -4x = 0   ==>   x = 0   ==>   y = 0

The origin does not lie in the region R, so we can ignore this point.

Now check the boundaries:

• x = 1   ==>   f (1, y) = 6 - 4y

Then

max{f (1, y) | 0 ≤ y ≤ 2} = 6 when y = 0

max{f (1, y) | 0 ≤ y ≤ 2} = -2 when y = 2

• x = 4   ==>   f (4, y) = 12 - 16y

Then

max{f (4, y) | 0 ≤ y ≤ 2} = 12 when y = 0

max{f (4, y) | 0 ≤ y ≤ 2} = -4 when y = 2

• y = 0   ==>   f (x, 0) = x ² + 5

Then

max{f (x, 0) | 1 ≤ x ≤ 4} = 21 when x = 4

min{f (x, 0) | 1 ≤ x ≤ 4} = 6 when x = 1

• y = 2   ==>   f (x, 2) = x ² - 8x + 5 = (x - 4)² - 11

Then

max{f (x, 2) | 1 ≤ x ≤ 4} = -2 when x = 1

min{f (x, 2) | 1 ≤ x ≤ 4} = -11 when x = 4

So to summarize, we found

max{f(x, y) | 1 ≤ x ≤ 4, 0 ≤ y ≤ 2} = 21 at (x, y) = (4, 0)

min{f(x, y) | 1 ≤ x ≤ 4, 0 ≤ y ≤ 2} = -11 at (x, y) = (4, 2)

Write the point-slope form of an equation of the line through the points (-1, 4) and (-2, 2).

Answers

Answer:

Point-slope form: y-4=2(x+1)

Slope intercept form: y=2x+6

I hope this helps!

Answer:

[tex]y-4=2(x+1)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Point-slope form is equal to

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

where y and y1 are the known y coordinates of two points on the line, and x and x1 are the known x coordinates of two points on the line. All we need now is m, which is the slope:

[tex]4-2=m(-1-(-2))[/tex]

We can simplify negative one minus negative two as positive 1.

[tex]4-2=m(1)[/tex]

4 minus 2 is 2, so m times 1 is 2. That means m is 2.

Now, we have the slope, so we can convert to point-slope form using one of the two points. Let's use (-1, 4). We can plug those values in for x1 and y1:

[tex]y-4=2(x+1)[/tex]

Find the distance traveled by a particle with position (x, y) as t varies in the given time interval.
x = 3 sin^2(t), y = 3 cos^2(t), 0< t<3pi
What is the length of the curve?

Answers

The length of the curve (and thus the total distance traveled by the particle along the curve) is

[tex]\displaystyle\int_0^{3\pi}\sqrt{x'(t)^2+y'(t)^2}\,\mathrm dt[/tex]

We have

x(t) = 3 sin²(t )   ==>   x'(t) = 6 sin(t ) cos(t ) = 3 sin(2t )

y(t) = 3 cos²(t )   ==>   y'(t) = -6 cos(t ) sin(t ) = -3 sin(2t )

Then

√(x'(t) ² + y'(t) ²) = √(18 sin²(2t )) = 18 |sin(2t )|

and the arc length is

[tex]\displaystyle 18 \int_0^{3\pi} |\sin(2t)| \,\mathrm dt[/tex]

Recall the definition of absolute value: |x| = x if x ≥ 0, and |x| = -x if x < 0.

Now,

• sin(2t ) ≥ 0 for t ∈ (0, π/2) U (π, 3π/2) U (2π, 5π/2)

• sin(2t ) < 0 for t ∈ (π/2, π) U (3π/2, 2π) U (5π/2, 3π)

so we split up the integral as

[tex]\displaystyle 18 \left(\int_0^{\pi/2} \sin(2t) \,\mathrm dt - \int_{\pi/2}^\pi \sin(2t) \,\mathrm dt + \cdots - \int_{5\pi/2}^{3\pi} \sin(2t) \,\mathrm dt\right)[/tex]

which evaluates to 18 × (1 - (-1) + 1 - (-1) + 1 - (-1)) = 18 × 6 = 108.

Use a 5% level of significance to test the claim that the variance for colleges and universities in Kansas is greater than 47.1. Use the traditional method. Assume that a simple random sample is selected from a normally distributed population.

b. Establish H0 and H1 and note the level of significance.
c. Find the sample test statistic.
d. Find Critical Value.
e. Conclude the test and interpret results.

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

The hypothesis :

H0 : σ²= 47.1

H1 : σ² > 47.1

α = 5% = 0.05

Population variance, σ² = 47.1

Sample variance, s² = 83.2

Sample size, n = 15

The test statistic = (n-1)*s²/σ²

Test statistic, T = [(15 - 1) * 83.2] ÷ 47.1

Test statistic = T = [(14 * 83.2)] * 47.1

Test statistic = 1164.8 / 47.1

Test statistic = 24.73

The degree of freedom, df = n - 1 ; 10 = 9

Critical value (0.05, 9) = 16.92 (Chisquare distribution table)

Reject H0 ; If Test statistic > Critical value

Since ; 24.73 > 16.92 ; Reject H0 and conclude that variance is greater.

Mr. E bought 3 drinks and 5 sandwiches for $25.05 and Mr. E bought 4 drinks and 2 sandwiches $13.80. how much does each drink cost?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

drink: $1.35sandwich: $4.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d and s represent the cost of a drink and a sandwich, respectively. The two purchases give rise to the equations ...

  3d +5s = 25.05

  4d +2s = 13.80

Dividing the second equation by 2 gives ...

  2d + s = 6.90

Subtracting the first equation from 5 times this, we get ...

  5(2d +s) -(3d +5s) = 5(6.90) -25.05

  7d = 34.50 -25.05 = 9.45

  d = 1.35

The cost of each drink is $1.35.

__

Additional comment

Using the simplified 2nd equation, we can find the cost of a sandwich.

  s = 6.90 -2d = 6.90 -2.70 = 4.20

The cost of each sandwich is $4.20.

area of sector = ∅ / 360 × πr²

where

r = radius of the circle

Therefore,

r = 10 units

∅ = 72°

Hence,

area of the sector = 72° / 360° × π10²

area of the sector = 7200 / 360 π

area of the sector = 20π units²
