A sample of 50 men and 40 women is selected. What is the probability that the sample mean of men heights is more than 5 inches greater than the sample mean of women heights

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability that the sample mean of men heights is more than 5 inches greater than the sample mean of women heights is 0.0885.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the population of men at UMBC has a mean height of 69 inches with a standard deviation of 4 inches. The women at UMBC have a mean height of 65 inches with a standard deviation of 3 inches.

A sample of 50 men and 40 women is selected.

The z-score probability distribution for the two-sample normal distribution is given by;

                          Z  =  [tex]\frac{(\bar X_M-\bar X_W)-(\mu_M-\mu_W)}{\sqrt{\frac{\sigma_M^{2} }{n_M}+\frac{\sigma_W^{2} }{n_W} } }[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\mu_M[/tex] = population mean height of men at UMBC = 69 inches

           [tex]\mu_W[/tex] = population mean height of women at UMBC = 65 inches

           [tex]\sigma_M[/tex] = standard deviation of men at UMBC = 4 inches

           [tex]\sigma_M[/tex] = standard deviation of women at UMBC = 3 inches

           [tex]n_M[/tex] = sample of men = 50

           [tex]n_W[/tex] = sample of women = 40

Now, the probability that the sample mean of men heights is more than 5 inches greater than the sample mean of women heights is given by = P([tex]\bar X_M-\bar X_W[/tex] > 5 inches)

 P([tex]\bar X_M-\bar X_W[/tex] > 5 inches) = P( [tex]\frac{(\bar X_M-\bar X_W)-(\mu_M-\mu_W)}{\sqrt{\frac{\sigma_M^{2} }{n_M}+\frac{\sigma_W^{2} }{n_W} } }[/tex] > [tex]\frac{(5)-(69-65)}{\sqrt{\frac{4^{2} }{50}+\frac{3^{2} }{40} } }[/tex] ) = P(Z > 1.35)

                                         = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 1.35) = 1 - 0.9115 = 0.0885

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.35 in the z table which has an area of 0.9115.

The circumference of a sphere was measured to be 82 cm with a possible error of 0.5 cm.
A. Use differentials to estimate the maximum error in the calculated volume.
What is the relative error?
B. Use differentials to estimate the maximum error in the calculated volume.
What is the relative error?

Answers

Answer:

A) Maximum error = 170.32 cm³

B)Relative error = 0.0575

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Formula for circumference is: C = 2πr

Differentiating with respect to r, we have;

dC/dr = 2π

r is small, so we can write;

ΔC/Δr = 2π

So, Δr = ΔC/2π

We are told that ΔC = 0.5.

Thus; Δr = 0.5/2π = 0.25/π

Now, formula for Volume of a sphere is;

V(r) = (4/3)πr³

Differentiating with respect to r, we have;

dV/dr = 4πr²

Again, r is small, so we can write;

ΔS/Δr = 4πr²

ΔV = 4πr² × Δr

Rewriting, we have;

ΔV = ((2πr)²/π) × Δr

Since C = 2πr, we now have;

ΔV = (C²/π)Δr

ΔV will be maximum when Δr is maximum

Thus, ΔV = (C²/π) × 0.25/π

C = 82 cm

Thus;

ΔV = (82²/π) × 0.25/π

ΔV = 170.32 cm³

B) Formula for relative error = ΔV/V

Relative error = 170.32/((4/3)πr³)

Relative error = 170.32/((4/3)C³/8π³)

Relative errror = 170.32/((4/3)82³/8π³)

Relative error = 170.32/2963.744

Relative error = 0.0575

A young sumo wrestler decided to go on a special high-protein diet to gain weight rapidly. When he started his diet, he weighed 79.5 kilograms. He gained weight at a rate of 5.5 kilograms per month. Let y represent the sumo wrestler's weight (in kilograms) after x months. Which of the following could be the graph of the relationship? graph of an increasing linear function in quadrant 1 with a positive y-intercept (Choice B) B graph of an increasing linear function in quadrants 1 and 4 with a positive x-intercept and negative y-intercept (Choice C) C graph of a decreasing linear function in quadrants 1 and 4 with a positive x-intercept and positive y-intercept (Choice D) D graph of a decreasing linear function in quadrant 4 with a negative y-intercept

Answers

Answer:

(Choice A) A graph of an increasing linear function in quadrant 1 with a positive y-intercept.

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of the sumo wrestler starts at a positive value of 79.5 kilograms, and we are given that the sumo wrestler gains a linear amount of weight per month at 5.5 kilograms per month.

If we were to graph this relationship, the sumo wrestler's weight would be represented on the y-axis, and the amount of time on the x-axis.

So the initial weight would occur at (0, 79.5) which is the positive y-intercept.

And since his weight is increasing at 5.5 kilograms per month, the slope of the linear function is positive.

Hence, the graph of the linear increasing function in quadrant 1 with a positive y-intercept.

Answer and explanation:

A) B2*B10: cell B2 and B10 have the values regular swear costs and number of swears respectively and we need to multiply these two values to get our answer

B) =IF(B10>10,(B10-10)*B3,0): Sam is supposed to pay an extra $2 for swear words over 10 and so we check if his swear words are above 10 and if they are we find out how many they are by subtracting 10 from them and then we multiply the value gotten by the cost for extra swear words($2)

C) =IF(B10<5,B10*B4,0): here we check if swear words are less than 5 and if they are we multiply number of swears words less than by 5 by the cost ($0.50)

D) F10=C10+D10+E10: to calculate total money in jar(F10), we simply add up regular cost(C10), extra cost(D10) and refund(E10)

Identify whether the sampling method is simple random, systematic, stratified, cluster, or convenience. Explain.

In a nationwide study of registered voters conducted by The New York Times, 390 people are randomly selected out of those registered as Republicans, 430 people are randomly selected out of those registered as Democrats, and 180 people are randomly selected out of those registered as Independents.

Answers

Answer: stratified

Step-by-step explanation:

In stratified sampling, you divide the population into subgroups, or strata, with similar characteristics, like here we have divided the population into subgroups that depend on their political alignment. This is used when you can expect that the results have a noticeable variation between the different subgroups. Usually, you want to have the same number of population for eac subgroup, but sometimes it is hard for different reasons (not enough people in one subgroup, for example)

In cluster sampling we also use subgroups, but the subgroup itself is the unit of the sampling, while in this case, we are randomly selecting individuals of the given subgroups.

So this would be a "stratified sampling".

Determine whether the normal sampling distribution can be used. The claim is p < 0.015 and the sample size is n=150

Answer:

Normal sampling distribution can not be used

    The  null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o : p = 0.015[/tex]

     The  alternative hypothesis is    [tex]H_a : p < 0.015[/tex]

     

The  sample size is  n= 150

Generally in order to use  normal sampling distribution  

     The value  [tex]np \ge 5[/tex]

So  

         [tex]np = 0.015 * 150[/tex]

         [tex]np = 2.25[/tex]

Given that  [tex]np < 5[/tex]   normal sampling distribution  can not be used

Based on the normal sampling assumption, the product of the sample size and the proportion must be greater than or equal to 5. Hence, since, the condition isn't met, then the normal sampling cannot be used.

Given the Parameters :

Proportion, p = 0.015Sample size, n = 150

Test if np ≥ 5 :

(150 × 0.015) = 2.25

2.25 < 5

Hence, np < 5 ;

Hence, the normal sampling distribution cannot be used.

Answers

Answer:

192 [tex]ft^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Volume of spherical sculpture = 256 ft³

[tex]\pi[/tex] is used as 3.

To find:

Surface area of sculpture = ?

Solution:

First of all, let us learn about the formula for Volume and Surface Area of Sphere:

1. [tex]Volume =\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3[/tex]

2. [tex]Surface\ Area = 4\pi r^2[/tex]

Given volume is 256 ft³.

[tex]256 = \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3\\\Rightarrow 256 = \dfrac{4}{3}\times 3 r^3\\\Rightarrow 256 = 4 r^3\\\Rightarrow r^3=64\\\Rightarrow \bold{r = 4\ ft}[/tex]

Now, let us put r = 4 in the formula of Surface Area to find the value of Surface Area:

[tex]Surface\ Area = 4\pi 4^2 = 4 \times 3 \times 16 = \bold{192\ ft^2}[/tex]

[tex]z - z_0 = f_x(x_0,y_0)(x-x_0) + f_y(x_0,y_0)(y-y_0)\\[/tex]

Now the partial derivatives of f are

[tex]f_x(x,y) = \frac{1}{x-8y} \\\\f_y(x,y) = \frac{8}{x-8y} \\\\P(x_0,y_0,z_0) = (9,1,0)\\\\f_z(9,1,0) = (\frac{1}{x-8y})_^{(9,1,0)}[/tex]

[tex]\\\\=\frac{1}{9-8}[/tex]

= 1

Now

[tex]f_y(9,1,0)=(\frac{8}{x-8y})_{(9,1,0)}\\\\ = -\frac{8}{9 - 8}[/tex]

= -8

So, the tangent equation is

[tex]z - 0 = 1\times (x - 9) -8\times (y - 1)[/tex]

Now after solving this, the following equation arise

z = x - 9 - 8y + 8

z = x - 8y - 1

Therefore

x - 8y - z = 1

The equation of the tangent plane is [tex]x-8y-z=1[/tex]

Tangent Plane:

An equation of the tangent plane to the given surface at the point [tex]P(x_0,y_0,z_0)[/tex] is,

[tex]z-z_0=f_x(x_0,y_0)(x-x_0)+f_y(x_0,y_0)(y-y_0)[/tex]

The function is,

[tex]z = ln(x-8y)[/tex]

And the point is (9,1,0)

Now, calculating [tex]f_x,f_y[/tex]

[tex]f_x(x,y)=\frac{1}{x-8y}\\ f_y(x,y)=\frac{x-8}{x-8y}[/tex]

Now, substituting the given points into the above functions we get,

[tex]f_x(9,1)=\frac{1}{9-8(1)}=1\\ f_y(x,y)=\frac{-8}{9-8(1)}=-8[/tex]

So, the equation of the tangent plane is,

[tex]z-0=1(x-9)-8(y-1)\\z=x-8y-1\\x-8y-z=1[/tex]

if it can be assumed that the population is normal, then what is the probability that one man sampled from this population has a weight between 72kg and 88kg

Answers

Answer:

The probability that one man sampled from this population has a weight between 72kg and 88kg is 0.6826.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question has the data of mean = 80 kg and standard deviation = 8kg

We have to find the probability between 72 kg and 88 kg

Since it is a normal distribution

(x`- u1 / σ/ √n) < Z >( x`- u2 / σ/ √n)

P (72 <x>88) = P ( 72-80/8/√1) <Z > ( 88-80/8/√1)

= P (-1<Z> 1) = 1- P (Z<1) - P (Z<-1)

= 1- 0.8413- (- 0.8413)= 1- 1.6826= 0.6826

So the probability that one man sampled from this population has a weight between 72kg and 88kg is 0.6826.

Answers

Answer:

Yes, it is invertible

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find in the matrix determinant is different from zero, since iif it is, that the matrix is invertible.

Let's use co-factor expansion to find the determinant of this 4x4 matrix, using the column that has more zeroes in it as the co-factor, so we reduce the number of determinant calculations for the obtained sub-matrices.We pick the first column for that since it has three zeros!

Then the determinant of this matrix becomes:

[tex]4\,*Det\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&4&6\\0&3&8\\0&0&1\end{array}\right] +0+0+0[/tex]

And the determinant of these 3x3 matrix is very simple because most of the cross multiplications render zero:

[tex]Det\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&4&6\\0&3&8\\0&0&1\end{array}\right] =1 \,(3\,*\,1-0)+4\,(0-0)+6\,(0-0)=3[/tex]

Therefore, the Det of the initial matrix is : 4 * 3 = 12

and then the matrix is invertible

An experimental probability is ______ likely to approach the theoretical probability if the number of trials simulated is larger. A. as B. more C. less D. not

Answers

Answer:

I believe your answer is b. the more trials you conduct, the more information you have

An experimental probability is more likely to approach the theoretical probability if the number of trials simulated is larger. Then the correct option is B.

What is probability?

Its basic premise is that something will almost certainly happen. The percentage of favorable events to the total number of occurrences.

Experimental probability: A probability that is established from the findings of several iterations of a test.

Theoretical probability: The proportion of positive consequences to all potential outcomes. The ratio of the favorable event to the total event.

An experimental probability is more likely to approach the theoretical probability if the number of trials simulated is larger.

Tessa’s employee benefits include family health care coverage. She contributes 18% of the cost. Tessa gets paid biweekly and $108.00 is taken out of each paycheck for family health care coverage. How much does her employer contribute annually for the family coverage? Clearly show your work.

Answers

The answer is $12792

Explanation:

It is known Tessa pays $108.00 to contribute to family coverage every two weeks and this represents 18% of the total payment. This implies the employer pays the 82% missing (100% - 18% = 82%). Additionally, with this information, it is possible to know the amount the employer has to pay every two weeks that represents 82%. The process is shown below:

1. Write the values you know and use x to represent the value you need to find

108 = 18        

  x =   82      

3. Cross multiply

x 18 = 8856

4. Find  the value of x by solving this simple equation

x = 8856 ÷ 18

x = 492 - Amount the employer pays every two weeks for Tessa's family coverage

Now that we know the money the employer pays every two weeks, it is possible to calculate the annual amount of money. Follow the process below.

1. Consider one year has a total of 52 weeks and divide this number of weeks by 2 because the payment for the family coverage occurs every 2 weeks

52 ÷ 2 = 26

2. Finally, multiply the money paid by the employer every two weeks by 26

26 weeks x $492 = $12792- This is the total the employer pays annually
