Engineers are designing a large elevator that will accommodate 44 people. The maximum weight the elevator can hold safely is 8228 pounds. According to the National Health Statistics Reports, the weights of adult U.S. men have mean 186 pounds and standard deviation 60 pounds, and the weights of adult U.S. women have mean 157 pounds and standard deviation 69 pounds.
a. If 44 people are on the elevator, and their total weight is 8228 pounds, what is their average weight?
b. If a random sample of 44 adult men ride the elevator, what is the probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded?
c. If a random sample of 44 adult women ride the elevator, what is the probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded?
Answer:
a) Their average weight is of 187 pounds.
b) 0.4562 = 45.62% probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded.
c) 0.002 = 0.2% probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded
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.
a. If 44 people are on the elevator, and their total weight is 8228 pounds, what is their average weight?
8228/44 = 187
Their average weight is of 187 pounds.
b. If a random sample of 44 adult men ride the elevator, what is the probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded?
For men, we have that [tex]\mu = 186, \sigma = 60[/tex]
Sample of 44 means that [tex]n = 44, s = \frac{60}{\sqrt{44}}[/tex]
This probability is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 187. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{187 - 186}{\frac{60}{\sqrt{44}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.11[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.11[/tex] has a p-value of 0.5438.
1 - 0.5438 = 0.4562
0.4562 = 45.62% probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded.
c. If a random sample of 44 adult women ride the elevator, what is the probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded?
For women, we have that [tex]\mu = 157, \sigma = 69[/tex]
Sample of 44 means that [tex]n = 44, s = \frac{69}{\sqrt{44}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{187 - 157}{\frac{69}{\sqrt{44}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.88[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.88[/tex] has a p-value of 0.998.
1 - 0.998 = 0.002.
0.002 = 0.2% probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded
A trough has ends shaped like isosceles triangles, with width 2 m and height 5 m, and the trough is 18 m long. Water is being pumped into the trough at a rate of 8 m3/min. At what rate (in m/min) does the height of the water change when the water is 2 m deep
9514 1404 393
Answer:
5/9 m/min
Step-by-step explanation:
The depth of the water is 2/5 of the depth of the trough, so the width of the surface will be 2/5 of the width of the trough:
2/5 × 2 m = 4/5 m
Then the surface area of the water is ...
A = LW = (18 m)(4/5 m) = 14.4 m²
The rate of change of height multiplied by the area gives the rate of change of volume:
8 m³/min = (14.4 m²)(h')
h' = (8 m³/min)/(14.4 m²) = 5/9 m/min

Matthew Travels 42/50 Meters In 26/30 Minutes. Find The Speed of Mathew In Meters Per Second.
Answer:
Matthew travels 0.0161 meters per second.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Matthew travels 42/50 meters In 26/30 minutes, to find the speed of Mathew in meters per second the following calculation must be performed:
42/50 = 0.84
26/30 = 0.86
0.86 x 60 = 52
0.84 meters in 52 seconds
0.84 / 52 = 0.01615
Therefore, Matthew travels 0.0161 meters per second.

Under which transformation can the image be a different size than the original
figure?
A. translation
B. rotation
C. dilation
D. reflection
C. Dilation.
Dilation can resize the image.
Translation will shift the imagine's position but won't change its actual size.
Rotation will mangle with image's orientation but also won't change its size.
Reflection is just a type of rotation which as established, also won't change its size.

Find the length of the missing side. triangle with an 8 inch side and 12 inch side with a right angle 8.9 in. 104 in. 4 in 14.4 in
Given:
In a triangle, length of one side is 8 inches and length of another side is 12 inches, and an angle is a right angle.
To find:
The length of the missing side.
Solution:
In a right angle triangle,
[tex]Hypotenuse^2=Perpendicular^2+Base^2[/tex]
Suppose the measures of sides adjacent to the right angle are 8 inches and 12 inches.
Substituting Perpendicular = 8 inches and Base = 12 inches, we get
[tex]Hypotenuse^2=8^2+12^2[/tex]
[tex]Hypotenuse^2=64+144[/tex]
[tex]Hypotenuse^2=208[/tex]
Taking square root on both sides, we get
[tex]Hypotenuse=\sqrt{208}[/tex]
[tex]Hypotenuse=14.422205[/tex]
[tex]Hypotenuse\approx 14.4[/tex]
The length of the missing side is 14.4 inches. Therefore, the correct option is D.

Exact heights of the next 100 babies born in a region c. Responses to the survey question "What is your eye color?" d. Exact foot length of humans e. Number of people in families a. Since the outcomes are b. Since the outcomes are countable, this is this is a discrete random variable. random variable.
Answer:
Exact heights of the next 100 babies born in a region.
Step-by-step explanation:
A discrete random variable involves two key factors ; discrete and randomness ; Hence, a discrete random variable should have a finite or countable Number of outputs or values. It should also stem from a random procedure. Here, the height of the next hundred babies is a random procedure as the next 100 babies in the region are unknown until Given birth too and as such all pregnant women have the chance of having their babies among. Since, we are dealing with exact height values which are countable (100), then we this is a discrete random variable.

It's area is 20 square cm. Find the dimensions of the rectangle
Answer:
4 cm by 5 cm (4 x 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a rectangle with length [tex]l[/tex] and width [tex]w[/tex] is given by [tex]A=lw[/tex]. Since the length of the rectangle is 7 less than 3 times its width, we can write the length as [tex]3w-7[/tex]. Therefore, substitute [tex]l=3w-7[/tex] into [tex]A=lw[/tex]:
[tex]A=lw,\\20=(3w-7)w[/tex]
Distribute:
[tex]20=3w^2-7w[/tex]
Subtract 20 from both sides:
[tex]3w^2-7w-20=0[/tex]
Factor:
[tex](w-4)(3w+5)=0,\\\begin{cases}w-4=0, w=\boxed{4},\\3w+5=0, 3w=-5, w=\boxed{-\frac{5}{3}}\end{cases}[/tex]
Since [tex]w=-\frac{5}{3}[/tex] is extraneous (our dimensions cannot be negative), our answer is [tex]w=4[/tex]. Thus, the length must be [tex]20=4l, l=\frac{20}{4}=\boxed{5}[/tex] and the dimension of the rectangle are 4 cm by 5 cm (4 x 5).
A television stand at Wiles' Discount Mart is $187, and the sales tax is 6%. What is the amount of tax to be paid for the TV?
Answer:
$11.22
Step-by-step explanation:
100% = 187
1% = 187/100 = $1.87
6% = 1%×6 = 1.87×6 = $11.22
Answer:
In this case, you need to calculate the 6% of the price, which is 187 $.
We only need to multiply the price (187) by the percentage (6%):
187 * 0.06 = 11.22
So the tax would be $11.22

Required
Find [tex]m\angle H[/tex]
To calculate [tex]m\angle H[/tex], we make use of:
[tex]\cos(\theta) = \frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}[/tex]
So, we have:
[tex]\cos(H) = \frac{GH}{HI}[/tex]
This gives:
[tex]\cos(H) = \frac{10\sqrt3}{20}[/tex]
[tex]\cos(H) = \frac{\sqrt3}{2}[/tex]
Take arccos of both sides
[tex]m\angle H = cos^{-1}(\frac{\sqrt3}{2})[/tex]
[tex]m\angle H = 30^o[/tex]

Answer:
(11.847 ; 15.813)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given 12 samples which are :
8, 20, 20, 11, 18, 12, 6, 5, 7, 22, 12, 25
We use a T-distribution to find the confidence interval since the sample size. is small, n < 30
Using a calculator :
The sample mean, xbar = 13.83
Sample standard deviation, s = 6.87
The confidence interval, C.I
C.I = xbar ± Tcritical * s/√n)
Tcritical at 95%, df = n - 1, 12 - 1 = 11
Tcritical(0.05, 11) = 2.20
Hence,
C.I = 13.83 ± 2.20(6.87/√12)
C.I = 13.83 ± 1.9831981
C. I = (13.83 - 1.983 ; 13.83 + 1.983)
C. I = (11.847 ; 15.813)

The average of a set of observations is the most important and useful measure of statistics and is a position measure, as it shows the positions of the numbers to which it refers. The average value is involved in several types of statistics and is examined in almost all statistical distributions. It is generally defined as the sum of the observations by their number. That is, it is the mathematical operation of finding the "mean distance" between two or more numbers.
