samples of size four?


The Times To Pop A 3.4-ounce Bag Of Microwave Popcorn Without Burning It Are Normally Distributed With

Answers

Answer 1

This question is solved using the central limit theorem, giving an answer of:

Fourth option, approximately normal with mean of 140 seconds and standard deviation of 10 seconds.

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

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean of 140, standard deviation of 20, sample of 4:

By the Central Limit Theorem, the distribution is approximately normal.

Mean is the same, of 140.

[tex]n = 4, \sigma = 20[/tex], thus:

[tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{20}{\sqrt{4}} = 10[/tex]

Thus, the correct answer is:

Fourth option, approximately normal with mean of 140 seconds and standard deviation of 10 seconds.

in a group of 300 mice, 75% are male and 20% are albino. What is the greatest number of mice in the group that could be both female and not albino?

a) 45
b)60
c)75
d)225

Answers

Correct Answer: C
Explanation:
C Out of the 300 mice, if 75% are male, 25% must be female, so translate: × 300 = 75 females. Eliminate D and E, because there are no more than 75 females of any sort. Because 20% of the mice are albino, and 25% of the mice are female, both groups are small enough not to overlap at all. There are 80% non-albino mice, so × 300 = 240 non-albino mice, so all 75 females could be non-albinos.

The perimeter of a rectangular garden is 4534 m. The length is 1125 m more than thrice the width. Find the length and the width of the rectangular garden. (Estimate to the nearest tenths place and verify the reasonableness).

Answers

Answer:

length = 1696 m

breadth = 571 m

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = 4534 m

let breadth be b

so length = b + 1125 m

so

perimeter of rectangular garden = 2(l+b)

4534 m = 2(b+1125m+b) {substituting the value}

or, 4534 m = 2(2b+1125m)

or, 4534 m = 4b + 2250 m

or, 4534 m - 2250m = 4b

or, 2284m = 4b

or, b = 2284m/4

so, b  = 571m

so, l = b + 1125 m

= 571 m + 1125m

= 1696 m

the length of a rectangle is 8 cm longer than its width. find the dimensions of the rectangle if its area is 108cm
!!no links!!

Answers

Answer:

[tex]4+2\sqrt{31}\text{ by } -4+2\sqrt{31}[/tex]

Or about 15.136 centimeters by 7.136 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the area of a rectangle is given by:

[tex]\displaystyle A = w\ell[/tex]

Where w is the width and l is the length.

We are given that the length is 8 centimeters longer than the width. In other words:

[tex]\ell = w+8[/tex]

And we are also given that the total area is 108 square centimeters.

Thus, substitute:

[tex](108)=w(w+8)[/tex]

Solve for w. Distribute:

[tex]w^2+8w=108[/tex]

Subtract 108 from both sides:

[tex]w^2+8w-108=0[/tex]

Since the equation is not factorable, we can use the quadratic formula:

[tex]\displaystyle x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

In this case, a = 1, b = 8, and c = -108. Substitute and evaluate:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} w&= \frac{-(8)\pm\sqrt{(8)^2-4(1)(-108)}}{2(1)} \\ \\ &=\frac{-8\pm\sqrt{496}}{2}\\ \\ &=\frac{-8\pm4\sqrt{31}}{2} \\ \\ &=-4 \pm 2\sqrt{31} \end{aligned}[/tex]

So, our two solutions are:

[tex]w=-4+2\sqrt{31} \approx 7.136 \text{ or } w=-4-2\sqrt{31}\approx -15.136[/tex]

Since width cannot be negative, we can eliminate the second solution.

And since the length is eight centimeters longer than the width, the length is:

[tex]\ell =(-4+2\sqrt{31})+8=4+2\sqrt{31}\approx 15.136[/tex]

So, the dimensions of the rectangle are about 15.136 cm by 7.136 cm.

Dan invests £18790 into his bank account. He receives 5.9% per year simple interest. How
much will Dan have after 2 years? Give your answer to the nearest penny where appropriate.

Answers

Answer: £21007.22

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the interest amount using the formula SI = (P × R × T) / 100.

SI = interest amount P = principle amount = £18790R = interest rate(in percentage) = 5.9T = time(in years) = 2

SI = (P × R × T) / 100 = (18790 × 5.9 × 2)/100 = 221722/100 = £2217.22

The total amount = principle amount + interest amount

= £18790 + £2217.22 = £21007.22

Ben is 4 times as old as Ishaan. 6 years ago, Ben was 6 times as old as Ishaan.
How old is Ishaan now?

Answers

Answer:

Ishaan is currently 15 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B represent Ben's current age and I represent Ishann's current age.

Ben is four times as old as Ishaan. In other words:

[tex]B=4I[/tex]

Six years ago, Ben was six times as old as Ishaan. In other words:

[tex]B-6=6(I-6)[/tex]

Solve for I. Substitute:

[tex](4I)-6=6(I-6)[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]4I-6=6I-36[/tex]

Subtract 4I from both sides and add 36 to both sides:

[tex]2I=30[/tex]

And divide both sides by two. Hence:

[tex]I=15[/tex]

Ishaan is currently 15 years old.

Answer:

Age of Ishaan = 15 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Ishaan's age = x years

Age of Ben = 4 * x = 4x years

6Years ago:

Age of Ishaan = x - 6

Age of Ben = 4x - 6

6 years ago, Ben was 6 times as old as Ishaan

So, Age of Ben = 6 * Ishaan's age

     4x - 6 = 6 *(x-6)

4x - 6 = 6x - 36

Add 36 to both sides

4x - 6 + 36  = 6x  

4x + 30 = 6x

Subtract '4x' from both sides

30 = 6x - 4x  

30 = 2x

2x = 30

Divide both by 2 sides

x = 30/2

x = 15

Find the distance between the points (2, 4) and (8, -8) on a coordinate plane, to the nearest whole number.

A.7
B.11
C.13
D.16

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

distance between two points formula:

[tex]d = \sqrt{( x2 - x1) ^{2} + (y2 - y1) ^{2} } [/tex]

where the x and y values are derived from the known points

we are given the points (2, 4) and (8, -8)

given these two points let's define each variable

x1 = 2

x2 = 8

y1 = 4

y2 = -8

we now substitute in these values into the formula

[tex]d = \sqrt{(8 - 2) ^{2} + ( - 8 - 4)^{2} } [/tex]

now we evaluate the expression using PEMDAS

first we do the subtraction inside of the parenthesis

8 - 2 = 6

-8 - 4 = -12

d = sqrt(6)^2 + (-12)^2

next we do the exponents

6^2 = 36

-12^2 = 144

d = sqrt( 144 + 36 )

next do the addition inside of the parenthesis

144 + 36 = 180

d = sqrt ( 180 )

finally we do the square root of 180

sqrt ( 180 ) = 13 ( rounded to the nearest whole )

d = 13

Answers

The functions f and g have different axis of symmetry

The y-intercept of f is higher than the y-intercept of g

Over the interval [-6, -3], the average rate of change of f is more rapid than the average rate of change of g

The known value in the question includes the following

The given table of f(x) and x, from which we have;

The point of the minimum value, which is the vertex = (-3, -10)

The axis of symmetry, of a parabola is the vertical line passing through the vertex such that the y-values at equal distance from the line on either side are equal is the line x = -3

The y-intercept, which is the point the graph intercepts with the y-axis or where x = 0 is the point (0. 8)

Over the interval [-6, -3], the average rate of change of f = (-10 - 8)/(-3 -(-6)) = -6

From the graph of g(x), we have;

The axis of symmetry is the line x = -3

The y-intercept = (0, -2)

Over the interval [-6, -3], the average rate of change of g ≈ (6 - (-2))/(-3 -(-6)) = 8/3

Therefore, we have the correct options as follows;
