Does anyone know the answers to the graded activities on plato?
Answer:
Explanation
There are some activities in Courseware content that report scores and some that just report mastery and/or completion status.
Resolution
Dynamic vs. Non-dynamic mastery tests
Mastery tests give mastery status if the score is 80% or higher, but not all tests report a score. There are two types of mastery tests in Courseware content:
Non-dynamic tests: Those that do report a score, such as those in the Writing Process and Practice titles, in the Grammar and Mechanics modules, give the same number of questions each time; these are non-dynamic tests. For example, Splitting Fused Run-ons: Mastery Test presents ten questions. Even if the Learner answers the first three questions incorrectly and is, at that point, no longer able to answer eight correctly to achieve mastery, the remaining seven questions are presented.
Dynamic tests: Mastery tests from some content titles, such as Essential Reading Skills, however, are dynamic, which means they adapt to the Learner's responses. These tests do not always give the maximum number of questions; instead, they will end sooner if 80% is either achieved or no longer achievable. These tests show mastery if 80% or better was achieved, but do not show a score. For example, in Essential Reading Skills, Pronouns: Mastery Test, the maximum number of questions presented is five; mastery requires four questions are answered correctly. The test will end early if the student answers the first four correctly or two incorrectly out of the first four. Mastery is still based on achieving 80% or better, but the score is not fully determined, so no score is reported, by design.
Step-by-step explanation:
A manufacturer claims that the calling range (in feet) of its 900-MHz cordless telephone is greater than that of its leading competitor. A sample of 19 phones from the manufacturer had a mean range of 1160 feet with a standard deviation of 32 feet. A sample of 11 similar phones from its competitor had a mean range of 1130 feet with a standard deviation of 30 feet.
Required:
Do the results support the manufacturer's claim?
Complete question is;
A manufacturer claims that the calling range (in feet) of its 900-MHz cordless telephone is greater than that of its leading competitor. A sample of 19 phones from the manufacturer had a mean range of 1160 feet with a standard deviation of 32 feet. A sample of 11 similar phones from its competitor had a mean range of 1130 feet with a standard deviation of 30 feet. Required:
Do the results support the manufacturer's claim?
Let μ1 be the true mean range of the manufacturer's cordless telephone and μ2 be the true mean range of the competitor's cordless telephone. Use a significance level of α = 0.01 for the test. Assume that the population variances are equal and that the two populations are normally distributed
Answer:
We will fail to reject the null hypothesis as there is no sufficient evidence to support the manufacturers claim.
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first sample, we have;
Mean; x'1 = 1160 ft
standard deviation; σ1 = 32 feet
Sample size; n1 = 19
For the second sample, we have;
Mean; x'2 = 1130 ft
Standard deviation; σ2 = 30 ft
Sample size; n2 = 11
The hypotheses are;
Null Hypothesis; H0; μ1 = μ2
Alternative hypothesis; Ha; μ1 > μ2
The test statistic formula for this is;
z = (x'1 - x'2)/√[(σ1)²/n1) + (σ2)²/n2)]
Plugging in the relevant values, we have;
z = (1160 - 1130)/√[(32)²/19) + (30)²/11)]
z = 2.58
From the z-table attached, we have a p-value = 0.99506
This p-value is more than the significance value of 0.01,thus,we will fail to reject the null hypothesis as there is no sufficient evidence to support the manufacturers claim.
An operator wants to determine the standard deviation for a machine relative to its ability to produce windshield wipers conforming within their specifications. To do this, she wants to create a p-chart. Over a month's time, she tests 100 units every day and records the number of manufacturing defects. The average proportion of non-conforming windshield wipers is found to be 0.042. What is the standard deviation of this sample
Answer:
the standard deviation of the sample is less than 0.1
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
The sample size n = 100 units
The average proportion of non-conforming windshield wipers is found to be 0.042 which is the defective rate P-bar
The standard deviation of the machine([tex]S_p[/tex]) can be calculated by using the formula:
[tex]S_p =\dfrac{ \sqrt{ \overline P \times (1 - \overline P)} }{n}[/tex]
[tex]S_p =\dfrac{ \sqrt{0.042 \times (1 -0.042)} }{100}[/tex]
[tex]S_p =\dfrac{ \sqrt{0.042 \times (0.958)} }{100}[/tex]
[tex]S_p =\dfrac{ \sqrt{0.040236} }{100}[/tex]
[tex]S_p =\dfrac{ 0.2005891323 }{100}[/tex]
[tex]S_p =0.002[/tex]
Thus , the standard deviation of the sample is less than 0.1
The isotope of plutonium 238Pu is used to make thermoelectric power sources for spacecraft. Suppose that a space probe was launched in 2012 with 4.0 kg of 238Pu.
Required:
a. If the half-life of 238Pu is 87.7 yr, write a function of the form Q(t)= Q0e- kt.to model the quantity Q(t) of 238Pu left after t-years.
b. If 1.6 kg of 238Pu is required to power the spacecraft's data transmitter, for how long will scientists be able to receive data?
Answer:
A) Q(t) = 4e^-(0.0079t)
B) t = 115.99 ≈ 116
Therefore scientist will be able to receive data after 116 years
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
to write a function of the form Q(t)= Q₀e⁻^kt to model the quantity Q(t) of ²³⁸Pu left after t-years.
so given that; half-life of ²³⁸Pu is 87.7 years,
∴ t = 87.7 years , Q(t) = 0.5Q₀
Now we substitute these value in the form Q(t)= Q₀e⁻^kt
Q(t)= Q₀e⁻^kt
0.5Q₀ = Q₀e^ -(87.7k)
0.5 = e^ -(87.7k)
now we take the natural logarithm of both sides
In(0.5) = Ine^ -(87.7k)
Now using the property logₙnᵃ = a
-87.7k = In(0.5)
k = - In(0.5) / 87.7
k = 0.0079
ALSO it was given that Q₀ = 4.0 kg
Therefore , model quality Q(t) of ²³⁸pu left after t years is:
Q(t) = 4e^-(0.0079t)
b)
to find the time left after 1.6kg of ²³⁸pu
we simple substitute Q(t) = 1.6 into Q(t) = 4e^-(0.0079t)
so we have
1.6 = 4e^-(0.0079t)
e^-(0.0079t) = 1.6/4
e^-(0.0079t) = 0.4
again we take the natural logarithm of both sides,
Ine^-(0.0079t) = In(0.4)
again using the property logₙnᵃ = a
-0.0079t = In(0.4)
t = - in(0.4) / 0.0079
t = 115.99 ≈ 116
Therefore scientist will be able to receive data after 116 years

A random sample of 1400 Internet users was selected from the records of a large Internet provider and asked whether they would use the Internet or the library to obtain information about health issues. Of these, 872 said they would use the Internet
1. The standard error ˆp SE of the proportion pˆ that would use the Internet rather than the library is:_______
a. 0.013.
b. 0.25.
c. 0.485.
d. 0.623.
2. If the Internet provider wanted an estimate of the proportion p that would use the Internet rather than the library, with a margin of error of at most 0.02 in a 99% confidence interval, how large a sample size would be required? (Assume that we don’t have any prior information about p).
a. 33
b. 3909
c. 2401
d. 4161
Answer:
1 [tex]\sigma_{\= x } = 0.0130[/tex]
2 [tex]n = 3908.5[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The sample size is [tex]n_p = 1400[/tex]
The number of those that said the would use internet is [tex]k = 872[/tex]
The margin of error is [tex]E = 0.02[/tex]
Generally the sample proportion is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]\r p = \frac{k}{n_p}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\r p = \frac{ 872}{1400}[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\r p = 0.623[/tex]
Generally the standard error of [tex]\r p[/tex] is mathematically evaluated as
[tex]\sigma_{\= x } = \sqrt{\frac{\r p (1- \r p)}{n} }[/tex]
substituting values
[tex]\sigma_{\= x } = \sqrt{\frac{0.623 (1- 0.623)}{1400} }[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_{\= x } = 0.0130[/tex]
For a 95% confidence interval the confidence level is 95%
Given that the confidence interval is 95% the we can evaluated the level of confidence as
[tex]\alpha = 100 - 99[/tex]

[tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]
Next we obtain the critical value of [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from normal distribution table (reference math dot armstrong dot edu) , the value is
[tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 2.58[/tex]
Give that the population size is very large the sample size is mathematically represented as
[tex]n = [ \frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} ^2 * \r p ( 1 - \r p )}}{E^2} ][/tex]
substituting values
[tex]n = [ \frac{2.58 ^2 * 0.623 ( 1 -0.623 )}{0.02^2} ][/tex]
[tex]n = 3908.5[/tex]

A box is dragged across 20 meters with a force of 60 Newtons, which are kg*m/s^2
Answer:
Mass= 6kg
Acceleration= 10 ms^-2
Work done = 1200Nm
Step-by-step explanation:
kg*m/s^2 represent the force.
The kg represent the mass
The m/s^2 represent the acceleration
The acceleration here will be due to gravity force= 10 ms^-2
Then the mass= 60/10
Mass= 6 kg
The force = 60 Newton
Distance covered in the direction of the the force= 20 Meters
The work done in the direction of the force= force* distance
The work done in the direction of the force=60*20
The work done in the direction of the force=1200 Nm

The manager of a garden shop mixes grass seed that is 60% rye grass with 140 pound of grass seed that is 80% rye grass to make a mixture that is 74% rye grass. How much of the 60% mixture is used?
Answer:
60 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = number of pounds of grass seeds A
The number of pounds of grass seed B = 140 pounds
Total pounds of the resulting mixture = (140 + x) pounds
Rye grass A = 60% = 0.6
Rye grass B = 80% = 0.8
Total percent of mixture formed = 74% = 0.74
Hence, we have the equation:
0.6x + 0.8 × 140 = 0.74 ( 140 + x)
0.6x + 112 = 103.6 + 0.74x
Collect like terms
112 - 103.6 = 0.74x - 0.6x
8.4 = 0.14x
x = 60 pounds
Therefore, the quantity of the 60% mixture used is 60 pounds.
The manager of a garden shop mixes grass seed that is 60% rye grass with 140 pound of grass seed that is 80% rye grass to make a mixture that is 74% rye grass. How much of the 60% mixture is used?
Find the sum of 1 + 3/2 + 9/4 + …, if it exists.
Answer:
Option (4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given sequence is,
[tex]1+\frac{3}{2}+\frac{9}{4}..........[/tex]
We can rewrite this sequence as,
[tex]1+\frac{3}{2}+(\frac{3}{2})^2.............[/tex]
There is a common ratio between the successive term and the previous term,
r = [tex]\frac{\frac{3}{2}}{1}[/tex]
r = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]
Therefore, it's a geometric sequence with infinite terms. In other words it's a geometric series.
Since sum of infinite geometric sequence is represented by the formula,
[tex]S_{n}=\frac{a}{1-r}[/tex] , when r < 1
where 'a' = first term of the sequence
r = common ratio
Since common ratio of the given infinite series is greater than 1 which makes the series divergent.
Therefore, sum of infinite terms of a series will be infinite Or the sum is not possible.
Option (4) will be the answer.

Suppose you were exploring the hypothesis that there is a relationship between parents’ and children’s party identification. Would we be correct in inferring that such a relationship also exists in the population? Explain your answer. What is the probability that any relationship we found is due to pure chance?
Answer:
No
It could be purely due to chance.
Step-by-step explanation:
A population is defined as the whole group which has the same characteristics. For example a population of the college belongs to the same college . But a sample may be an element of a population.
So it is not necessary for a population to have the same characteristics as the sample.
But it is essential for the sample to have at least one same characteristics as the population.
So we would not be correct in inferring that such a relationship also exists in the population.
It is a hypothesis which can be true or false due to certain conditions or limitations as the case maybe.
For example in a population of smokers some may be in the habit of taking cocaine. But a sample of cocaine users does not mean the whole population uses it.
It could be purely due to chance if we find out that there is a relationship between parents’ and children’s party identification in the population.

For a.
Using the empirical rule, what is the approximate percentage of the men between the following values 166 cm and 202 cm.
the z score can be determined by using the formula:
[tex]z = \dfrac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]z(166) = \dfrac{166-184}{6}[/tex]
[tex]z(166) = \dfrac{-18}{6}[/tex]
z(166) = -3
[tex]z(202) = \dfrac{202-184}{6}[/tex]
[tex]z(202) = \dfrac{18}{6}[/tex]
z(202) = 3
P(156<X<202) = P( μ - 3σ < X < μ + 3σ )
P(156<X<202) = P( - 3 < Z < 3)
P(156<X<202) = P( Z < 3) - P(Z < -3)
P(156<X<202) = 0.99865- 0.001349

Complete question :
The development of AstroWorld ("The Amusement Park of the Future") on the outskirts of a city will increase the city's population at the rate given below in people/year t yr after the start of construction. 5,700√t + 11,000 The population before construction is 67,000. Determine the projected population 16 yr after the construction of the park has begun. people
Answer:
486,200
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the rate of change in population is represented by the function:
f(t) = 5,700√t + 11,000
To get the original function, we take the integral of the rate function because the rate of change is obtained by taking the derivate of the original equation
f(t) = 5,700t^1/2 + 11,000
Taking the integral of f with respect to t:
∫(5,700t^1/2 + 11,000)
[5700t^(1/2 + 1)] / (1/2 + 1) + 11000t + C
[(5700t^3/2)/ 3/2] + 11000t + C
Where C = constant
If population before construction = 67000
Then C = 67000
t = time = 16 years
Substitute values into the original change equation:
[(5700(16)^3/2)/ 3/2] + 11000t + 67000
[(5700 * 64) / 1.5] + 11000(16) + 67000
243200 + 176000 + 67000
= 486,200
Transform the given parametric equations into rectangular form. Then identify the conic. x= 5cos(t) y= 2sin(t)
Answer:
Solution : Option D
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing we want to do here is isolate the cos(t) and sin(t) for both the equations --- ( 1 )
x = 5cos(t) ⇒ x / 5 = cos(t)
y = 2sin(t) ⇒ y / 2 = sin(t)
Let's square both equations now. Remember that cos²t + sin²t = 1. Therefore, we can now add both equations after squaring them --- ( 2 )
( x / 5 )² = cos²(t)
+ ( y / 2 )² = sin²(t)
_____________
x² / 25 + y² / 4 = 1
Remember that addition indicates that the conic will be an ellipse. Therefore your solution is option d.

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.
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".
According to the Empirical Rule, 99.7% of scores in a normal distribution fall within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to check the validity of the given statement. The statement is false.
Under the empirical rule, following a normal distribution, 99.7% of observed data lies within 3 standard deviations from the mean while 95% of observed data lies within 2 standard deviation from the mean and 68% of observed data lies within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
Please check attachment for diagrammatic representation of the empirical rule.
Find the surface area of the solid given the net.
Answer:
288
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of two triangles=2(½bh)
=bh
=8×6
=48
For the rectangles=lb + lb +lb
l(b+b+b)
=12(8+6+6)
=12×20
=240
Total area=240 +48=288
