The lengths of pregnancies in a small rural village are normally distributed with a mean of 265 days and a standard deviation of 14 days. In what range would we expect to find the middle 50% of most lengths of pregnancies

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the middle 50% of most lengths of pregnancies ranges between 255.62 days and 274.38 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean  = 265

standard deviation = 14

The formula for calculating the z score is [tex]z = \dfrac{x -\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

x = μ + σz

At middle of 50% i.e 0.50

The critical value for [tex]z_{\alpha/2} = z_{0.50/2}[/tex]

From standard normal table

[tex]z_{0.25}=[/tex] + 0.67  or -0.67  

So; when z = -0.67

x = μ + σz

x = 265 + 14(-0.67)

x = 265 -9.38

x = 255.62

when z = +0.67

x = μ + σz

x = 265 + 14 (0.67)

x = 265 + 9.38

x = 274.38

the middle 50% of most lengths of pregnancies ranges between 255.62 days and 274.38 days

Given that
[tex]\sqrt{2p-7}=3[/tex]
and
[tex]7\sqrt{3q-1}=2[/tex]
Evaluate
[tex]p + {q}^{2} [/tex]​

Answers

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

The two given expressions are:

● √(2p-7) = 3

● 7√(3q-1) = 2

We are told to evaluate p+q^2

To do that let's find the values of p and q^2

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Let's start with p.

● √(2p-7) = 3

Square both sides

● (2p-7) = 3^2

● 2p-7 = 9

Add 7 to both sides

● 2p-7+7 = 9+7

● 2p = 16

Divide both sides by 2

● 2p/2 = 16/2

● p = 8

So the value of p is 8

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Let's find the value of q^2

● 7√(3q-1) = 2

Square both sides

● 7^2 × (3q-1) = 2^2

● 49 × (3q-1) = 4

● 49 × 3q - 49 × 1 = 4

● 147q - 49 = 4

Add 49 to both sides

● 147q -49 +49 = 4+49

● 147q = 53

Divide both sides by 147

● 147q/147 = 53/147

● q = 53/ 147

Square both sides

● q^2 = 53^2 / 147^2

● q^2 = 2809/21609

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

● p+q^2 = 8 +(2809/21609)

● p+q^2 = (2809 + 8×21609)/21609

● p+q^2 = 175681 / 21609

● p + q^2 = 8.129

Round it to the nearest unit

● p+ q^2 = 8

Find the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the binomial distribution with the given values of n and p. n = 50 p = 0.2

Answers

Answer:

The mean, variance, and standard deviation of the binomial distribution are 10, 8, and 2.83 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the binomial distribution with the given values of n and p, i.e; n = 50 p = 0.2.

Let X = binomial random variable

So, X ~ Binom(n = 50, p = 0.2)

Now, the mean of the binomial distribution is given by;

         Mean of X, E(X) = n [tex]\times[/tex] p

                                    = 50 [tex]\times[/tex] 0.2 = 10

Now, the variance of the binomial distribution is given by;

        Variance of X, V(X) = n [tex]\times[/tex] p [tex]\times[/tex] (1 - p)

                                         = 50 [tex]\times[/tex] 0.2 [tex]\times[/tex] (1 - 0.2)

                                         = 10 [tex]\times[/tex] 0.8 = 8

Also, the standard deviation of the binomial distribution is given by;

        Standard deviation of X, S.D.(X) = [tex]\sqrt{\text{n} \times \text{p} \times (1 - \text{p})}[/tex]

                                                              = [tex]\sqrt{\text{50} \times \text{0.2} \times (1 - \text{0.2})}[/tex]

                                                              = [tex]\sqrt{8}[/tex] = 2.83

Given v(x) = g(x) (3/2*x^4 + 4x – 1), find v'(2).​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that v(x) = g(x)×(3/2*x^4+4x-1)

Let's find V'(2)

V(x) is a product of two functions

● V'(x) = g'(x)×(3/2*x^4+4x-1)+ g(x) ×(3/2*x^4+4x-1)

We are interested in V'(2) so we will replace x by 2 in the expression above.

g'(2) can be deduced from the graph.

● g'(2) is equal to the slope of the tangent line in 2.

● let m be that slope .

● g'(2) = m =>g'(2) = rise /run

● g'(2) = 2/1 =2

We've run 1 square to the right and rised 2 squares up to reach g(2)

g(2) is -1 as shown in the graph.

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Let's derivate the second function.

Let h(x) be that function

● h(x) = 3/2*x^4 +4x-1

● h'(x) = 3/2*4*x^3 + 4

● h'(x) = 6x^3 +4

Let's calculate h'(2)

● h'(2) = 6 × 2^3 + 4

● h'(2) = 52

Let's calculate h(2)

●h(2) = 3/2*2^4 + 4×2 -1

●h(2)= 31

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Replace now everything with its value to find V'(2)

● V'(2) = g'(2)×h(2) + g(2)× h'(2)

● V'(2)= 2×31 + (-1)×52

●V'(2) = 61 -52

●V'(2)= 9

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = 4x + 14[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

To find the equation we must first find the slope of the line

Slope of the line using points (−2, 6) and (2, 14) is

[tex]m = \frac{14 - 6}{2 + 2} = \frac{8}{2} = 4[/tex]

Now we use the slope and any of the points to find the equation of the line.

Equation of the line using point ( - 2, 6) and slope 4 is

[tex]y - 6 = 4(x + 2) \\ y - 6 = 4x + 8 \\ y = 4x + 8 + 6[/tex]

We have the final answer as

[tex]y = 4x + 14[/tex]

The monthly cost (in dollars) of water use is a linear function of the amount of water used (in hundreds of cubic feet, HCF). The cost for using 15 HCF of water is 32.84, and the cost for using 43 HCF is 79.04. What is the cost for using 36 HCF of water?

Answers

Answer:

67.49

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of HCF be x.

Let the cost be y.

You are given 2 points of a line: (15, 32.84) and (43, 79.04).

Now we find the equation of the line that passes through those points.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 32.84 = [(79.04 - 32.84)/(43 - 15)](x - 15)

y - 32.84 = (46.2/28)(x - 15)

y - 32.84 = 1.65(x - 15)

y = 1.65x - 24.75 + 32.84

y = 1.65x + 8.09

Now we let x = 36 and solve for y.

y = 1.65(36) + 8.09

y = 67.49

Lydia drives from city a to city b to transport goods. her return speed is 3 times her departure speed and she takes 40 minutes less on her return trip. how long did her departure trip take?

Answers

Answer:

1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, let's say that her departure trip takes t in minutes, as her return speed is 3 times her departure speed, she took t/3 for the return and we know that this 40 minutes less, so we can write.

t/3=t-40

We can multiply by 3

t = 3t -40*3 = 3t - 120

This is equivalent to

3t -120 = t

We subtract t

2t-120 = 0

2t = 120

We divide by 2

t = 120/2 = 60

So this is 60 minutes = 1 hour.

The residents of a city voted on whether to raise property taxes. The ratio of yes votes to no votes was 6 to 5 . If there were 4545 no votes, what was the total number of votes?

Answers

Answer:

The total number of votes= 9999

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of vote specifically the ratio of yes to no vote in a city vote is 6 to 5.

There is a total of 4545 no votes.

Yes/no = 6/5

Yes= no(6/5)

Yes= 4545(6/5)

Yes= 5454

The total number of yes votes are 5454.

The total number of votes= yes votes+ no votes

The total number of votes= 5454+4545

The total number of votes= 9999

During the school year, there were 315 total points scored between basketball, soccer, baseball, and football. The baseball team scored 55 points. The soccer team scored twice as much as the baseball team. The football team scored 0.5 more than 1.5 times as much as the baseball team. How many points did the basketball team score?

Answers

Answer:

67.5p.

Step-by-step explanation:

315p in total.

- Baseball has 55p.

- Soccer teams points = 55x2 = 110p.

-  Football team points = 110 x 0.5 = 55 x 1.5 = 82.5p.

So then you just do 315p - 82.5p - 55p - 110p = 67.5p

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

mixed-nut blend store cost  2005 = $1.35 per lb

blend cost in 2010 = $1.83 per lb

solution

we consider here y = cost of a pound

and x year = after 2005

we will use here linear equation model

so

[tex]\frac{y - 1.35}{1.83-1.35} = \frac{x-10}{5 - 0}[/tex]    .........................1

solve it we get

5y - 6.75 = .48 x

so

at 2007 year here x wil be 2

so

There are $400$ pages in Sheila's favorite book. The average number of words per page in the book is $300$. If she types at an average rate of $40$ words per minute, how many hours will it take to type the $400$ pages of the book?

Answers

Answer:

50hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are 400 pages in Sheila's favorite book.

The average number of words per page in the book is 300

She types an average rate of 40words per minute.

So to type 400pages of the book

Total number of words in the pages = 400×300 = 120000 words

Typing rate : 40words ------- 1minute

120000 words ----------- x minutes

Hence we have 40 × X mins = 120000 × 1min

Make X the subject

40X = 120000minutes

X = 120000/40

X = 3000minutes

Since 60minutes = 1hour

3000minutes = 3000minutes/60

= 50hours

Hence it took her 50hours to type 400pages

Solution:

The total number of words in the book is 400 x 300. Sheila types at a rate of 40 words per minute, or 40 x 60 words per hour. The number of hours it takes her is equal to the number of words divided by her rate of typing, or 400x300/40x60 = 50 hours.

Answers

Answer:

x = -264/35

y = -36/5

Plug y as -36/5 in the second equation and solve for x.

-4(-36/5) + 7x = -24

Expand brackets.

144/5 + 7x = -24

Subtract 144/5 from both sides.

7x = -264/5
