A laboratory tested n = 98 chicken eggs and found that the mean amount of cholesterol was LaTeX: \bar{x}x ¯ = 86 milligrams with σ = 7 milligrams. Find the margin of error E corresponding to a 95% confidence interval for the true mean cholesterol content, μ, of all such eggs.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1.3859

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Margin of Error is given as:

Margin of Error = Critical value × Standard Error

Critical value = z score

In the question, we are given a confidence interval of 95%.

Z score for a 95% confidence level is given as: 1.96

Hence, critical value = 1.96

Standard Error = σ / √n

Where n = number of samples = 98 chicken eggs

σ = Standard deviation = 7 milligrams

Standard Error = 7/√98

Standard Error = 0.7071067812

Hence, Margin of Error = Critical value × Standard Error

Margin of Error = 1.96 × 0.7071067812

Margin of Error = 1.3859292911

Therefore, the margin of error corresponding to a 95% confidence interval for the true mean cholesterol content, μ, of all such eggs is approximately 1.3859

Explain why within any set of ten integers chosen from 2 through 24, there are at least two integers with a common divisor greater than 1 g

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are some examples of ten integers (in this case prime numbers) chosen from 2 to 24;

2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23

Lets take for example the integers 15 and 21, they have a common divisor 3 which is greater than 1. Which implies that the number 3 can divide through 15 and 21 without a remainder, that is, 21 ÷ 3 = 7, 15 ÷ 3 = 5. Also note that 3 is a divisor of 9.

Therefore, we could right say that within any set of ten integers chosen from 2 through 24, there are at least two integers with a common divisor greater than 1.

A function y = g(x) is graphed below. What is the solution to the equation g(x) = 3?

Answers

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph, we can see that g(x)=3 is true only when x is between 3 and 5. However, note that when x=3, the point is a closed circle. When x=5, the point is an open circle. Therefore, the solution is between 3 and 5, and it includes 3 but not 5.

In set-builder notation, this is:

[tex]\{x|x\in \mathbb{R}, 3\leq x<5\}[/tex]

In interval notation, this is:

[tex][3,5)[/tex]

Essentially, these answers are saying: The solution set for g(x)=3 is all numbers between 3 and 5 including 3 and not including 5.

Find the area of the shaded regions:

Answers

Answer: 125.6 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have that the radius of this circle is r = 10in

Now, we know that the area of a circle is:

A = pi*r^2

Now, if we got only a section of the circle, defined by an angle x, then the area of that region is:

A = (x/360°)*pi*r^2

Notice that if x = 360°, then the area is the same as the area of the full circle, as expected.

Then each shaded area has an angle of 72°.

A = (72°/360°)*3.14*(10in)^2 = 62.8 in^2

And we have two of those, both of them with the same angle, so the total shaded area is:

2*A = 2*62.8 in^2 = 125.6 in^2

Robert is putting new roofing shingles on his house. Each shingle is 1 2/3 feet long. The north part of the house has a roof line that is 60 feet across. How many shingles can be placed (side by side) on the north part of the house?

Answers

Answer: 36 shingles can be placed on the north part of the house.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Length of each shingle = [tex]1\dfrac23[/tex] feet = [tex]\dfrac53[/tex] feet.

The north part of the house has a roof line that is 60 feet across.

Then, the number of  shingles can be placed  on the north part of the house = (Length of roof line in north part) ÷ (Length of each shingle)

Pregnancy length in horses. Bigger mammals tend to carry their young longer before giving birth. The length of horse pregnancies from conception to birth varies according to a roughly Normal distribution, with mean 336 days and standard deviation 3 days. Use the 68–95–99.7 rule to answer the following questions.Required:What percent of horse pregnancies are longer than 339 days?

Answers

Answer:

  16%

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between the time of interest (339 days) and the mean (336 days) is 3 days, which is exactly 1 standard deviation.

The 68-95-99.7 rule tells you that 68% of pregnancies will be within 1 standard deviation. The remaining 32% will be evenly split between pregnancies that are longer than 339 days and ones that are shorter than 333 days. So, half of 32%, or 16%, will be longer than 339 days.

Let the smaller angle be x

Then, Larger angle would be x + 4°

Case -1:

❍ They are complementary angles.

This means, they add upto 90°

So,

➙ x + x + 4° = 90°

➙ 2x + 4° = 90°

➙ 2x = 86°

➙ x = 86°/2 = 43°

Then, x + 4° = 47°

So, Our required answer:

Answer:

1) [tex]\boxed{p(x) = x^3-x^2+x-1}[/tex]

2) [tex]\boxed{p(x) = x^2+x-2}[/tex]

3) [tex]\boxed{p(x) =- 2x^2+2x+4}[/tex]

4) [tex]\boxed{p(x) = 2x^2+x-4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Part (1)

[tex]p(x) = x^3-x^2+x-1[/tex]

As we have to determine it by ourselves, this is the polynomial having a degree of 3. p(x) with a degree of 3 means that the highest degree/exponent of x should be 3.

Part (2)

[tex]p(x) = x^2+x-2[/tex]

This can be the polynomial having the factor x-1 because if we put:

x - 1 = 0 =>  x = 1 in the above polynomial, it gives us a result of zero which shows us that (x-1) "is" a factor of the polynomial.

Part (3)

[tex]p(x) = -2x^2+2x+4[/tex]

This can be the polynomial for which p(0) = 4 and p(-1) = 0

Let's check:

[tex]p(0) =- 2(0)^2+2(0)+4\\p(0) = 0 + 0+4\\p(0) = 4[/tex]

[tex]p(-1)= -2(-1)^2+2(-1)+4\\p(-1) = -2(1)-2+4\\p(-1) = -2-2+4\\p(-1) = 0[/tex]

So, this is the required polynomial determined by "myself".

Part (4):

[tex]p(x) = 2x^2+x-4[/tex]

This is the polynomial having a remainder 6 when divided by (x-2)

Let's check:

Let x - 2 = 0 => x = 2

Putting in the above polynomial

[tex]p(x) = 2(2)^2+(2)-4\\Given \ that \ Remainder = 6\\6 = 2(4) +2-4\\6 = 8+2-4\\6 = 10-4\\6 = 6[/tex]

So, Proved that it has a remainder of 6 when divided by (x-2)

A car dealer recommends that transmissions be serviced at 30,000 miles. To see whether her customers are adhering to this recommendation, the dealer selects a random sample of 40 customers and finds that the average mileage of the automobiles serviced is 30,456. The standard deviation of the population is 1684 miles. By finding the P-­value, determine whether the owners are having their transmissions serviced at 30,000 miles. Use α = 0.10. Are the owners having their transmissions serviced at 30,000 miles?

Answers

Answer:

No, the owners are not having their transmissions serviced at 30,000 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a car dealer recommends that transmissions be serviced at 30,000 miles.

The car dealer selects a random sample of 40 customers and finds that the average mileage of the automobiles serviced is 30,456. The standard deviation of the population is 1684 miles.

Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = true average mileage of the automobiles serviced.

So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] = 30,000 miles      {means that the owners are having their transmissions serviced at 30,000 miles}

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu\neq[/tex] 30,000 miles      {means that the owners are having their transmissions serviced at different than 30,000 miles}

The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample z-test statistics because we know about population standard deviation;

                             T.S.  =  [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]  ~  N(0,1)

where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample average mileage serviced = 30,456 miles  

            [tex]\sigma[/tex] = population standard deviation = 1684 miles

            n = sample of customers = 40

So, the test statistics =  [tex]\frac{30,456-30,000}{\frac{1684}{\sqrt{40} } }[/tex]  

                                     =  1.71

The value of z-statistics is 1.71.

Also, the P-value of the test statistics is given by;

                    P-value = P(Z > 1.71) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 1.71)

                                  = 1 - 0.9564 = 0.0436

For the two-tailed test, the P-value is calculated as = 2 [tex]\times[/tex] 0.0436 = 0.0872.

Since the P-value of our test statistics is less than the level of significance as 0.0872 < 0.10, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as the test statistics will fall in the rejection region.

Therefore, we conclude that the owners are having their transmissions serviced at different than 30,000 miles.

$168.27

Step by step Explanation

Given p=90000/400+3x

With the limits of 40 to 50

Then we need the integral in the form below to find the average price

1/(g-d)∫ⁿₐf(x)dx

Where n= 40 and a= 50, then if we substitute p and the limits then we integrate

1/(50-40)∫⁵⁰₄₀(90000/400+3x)

1/10∫⁵⁰₄₀(90000/400+3x)

If we perform some factorization we have

90000/(10)(3)∫3dx/(400+3x)

3000[ln400+3x]₄₀⁵⁰

Then let substitute the upper and lower limits we have

Answers

Answer:

The answer is option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m is the slope

c is the y intercept

From the question

y = - 1/2x + 5

Comparing with the general equation above

Slope / m = -1/2

Since the lines are perpendicular to each other the slope of the other line is the negative inverse of the original line

That's

Slope of the perpendicular line = 2

Equation of the line using point (–1, –2) and slope 2 is

y + 2 = 2( x + 1)

y + 2 = 2x + 2

y = 2x + 2 - 2

We have the final answer as

1. Note the probability of emergency backup generators to fail when they are needed = 18% or 0.18. Thus,

a. Probability of both emergency backup generators failing = P (G1 and G2 fails) where G represents the generators.

= P (G1 falls) x P ( G2 fails)

= 0.18 x 0.18

= 0.36

b. The probability of having a working generator in the event of a power outage = G1 fails x G2 works + G2 works x G2 fails

= 0.36 x 0.18 + 0.18 x 0.36

= 0.1296

if a flight to europe takes about 13 hours and you make one round trip flight per month how many total days do you travel in a year

Answers

Answer:

13 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a one-way flight to europe will take 13 hours

A round trip will take = 13 hrs x 2 = 26 hours

Also given that we make one round trip per months for 12 months (1 year)

We will take a total of 12 round trips per year

Number of hours taken for 12 round trips

= 26 hours per round trip x 12 round trips

= 26 x 12

= 312 hours

Recall that there are 24 hours in a day, hence to convert 312 hours into days, we have to divide this by 24.

Number of days = number of hours ÷ 24

= 312 ÷ 24

= 13 days

The rate of change in sales S is inversely proportional to time t (t > 1), measured in weeks. Find S as a function of t when the sales after 2 and 4 weeks are 162 units and 287 units, respectively.

Answers

Answer:

S = 250/t

Step-by-step explanation:

If the rate of change of sales is inversely proportional to the time t, this is expressed mathematically as ΔS ∝ 1/Δt

ΔS = k/Δt where k is the constant of proportionality

If ΔS = S₂-S₁ and Δt = t₂-t₁

S₂-S₁ = k/ t₂-t₁

If the sales after 2 and 4 weeks are 162 units and 287 units respectively, then when S₁  = 162, t₁ = 2 and when   S₂ = 287, t₂ = 4.

On substituting this values into the given functions, we will have;

287 - 162 = k/4-2

125 = k/2

cross multiplying

k = 125* 2

k = 250

Substituting k = 250 into the function ΔS = k/Δt

ΔS = 250/Δt

S = 250/t

Hence the value of S as function of t when the sales after 2 and 4 weeks are 162 units and 287 units, respectively is expressed as S = 250/t

Design a nonlinear system that has at least two solutions. One solution must be the ordered pair: (-2, 5). Tell how you came up with your system and give the entire solution set for the system.

Answers

Answer:

[tex] \begin{cases} (x - 2)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 25 \\ y = 5 \end{cases} [/tex]

Solutions: x = 6, y = 5   or   x = -2, y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use a graph.

Plot point (-2, 5). That will be a point on a circle with radius 5.

From point (-2, 5), go right 4 and down 3 to point (2, 2). (2, 2) is the center of the circle.

You now need the equation of a circle with center (2, 2) and radius 5.

Use the standard equation of a circle:

[tex] (x - h)^2 + (y - k)^2 = r^2 [/tex]

where (h, k) is the center and 5 is the radius.

The circle has equation:

[tex] (x - 2)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 25 [/tex]

To have a single solution, you need the equation of the line tangent to the circle at (-2, 5), but since you want more than one solution, you need the equation of a secant to the circle. For example, use the equation of the horizontal line through point (2, 5) which is y = 5.

System:

[tex] \begin{cases} (x - 2)^2 + (y - 2)^2 = 25 \\ y = 5 \end{cases} [/tex]

To solve, let y = 5 in the equation of the circle.

(x - 2)^2 + (5 - 2)^2 = 25

(x - 2)^2 + 9 = 25

(x - 2)^2 = 16

x - 2 = 4  or x - 2 = -4

x = 6 or x = -2

Solutions: x = 6, y = 5   or   x = -2, y = 5

An example of a nonlinear system that has at least two solutions, one of which is (-2,5) are,

⇒ x² + y² = 29

⇒ 3x + 4y = -2

What is an expression?

Mathematical expression is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Now, This system by starting with the equation of a circle centered at the origin with radius sqrt(29), which is,

⇒ x² + y² = 29.

Then, Added a linear equation that intersects the circle at (-2,5) to create a system with two solutions.

The entire solution set for this system is: (-2, 5) and (7/5, -19/10)

Thus, An example of a nonlinear system that has at least two solutions, one of which is (-2,5) are,

⇒ x² + y² = 29

⇒ 3x + 4y = -2

A. f(x) = -x^2 - x - 4

B. f(x) = -x^2 + 4

C. f(x) = x^2 + 3x + 4

D. f(x) = x^2 + 4

Answers

Answer:

B: -x^2 + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

If the equation was [tex]f(x)=x^2[/tex], then the vertex would be at 0, and the "U" would be facing straight up. Here, the "U" is upside down, so that means the "x^2" would have to be a negative number ([tex]-x^2[/tex]) to get the upside-down "U". Then, we could see that the vertex is at positive 4, so that means that the parabola moved up 4 units, so the equation should end in +4.

Our answer is:

B: -x^2 + 4

Which statement about this function is true?
O A.
The value of a is positive, so the vertex is a minimum.
OB.
The value of a is negative, so the vertex is a minimum.
OC.
The value of a is negative, so the vertex is a maximum.
OD
The value of a is positive, so the vertex is a maximum.

Salaries of 42 college graduates who took a statistics course in college have a​ mean, ​, of . Assuming a standard​ deviation, ​, of ​$​, construct a ​% confidence interval for estimating the population mean .

Answers

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for estimating the population mean μ is ($60,112.60, $68087.40).

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is:

Salaries of 42 college graduates who took a statistics course in college have a​ mean, [tex]\bar x[/tex] of, $64, 100. Assuming a standard​ deviation, σ of ​$10​,016 construct a ​99% confidence interval for estimating the population mean μ.

Solution:

The (1 - α)% confidence interval for estimating the population mean μ is:

[tex]CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

The critical value of z for 99% confidence interval is:

[tex]z_{\alpha/2}=z_{0.01/2}=z_{0.005}=2.57[/tex]

Compute the 99% confidence interval for estimating the population mean μ as follows:

[tex]CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

     [tex]=64100\pm 2.58\times\frac{10016}{\sqrt{42}}\\\\=64100+3987.3961\\\\=(60112.6039, 68087.3961)\\\\\approx (60112.60, 68087.40)[/tex]

Thus, the 99% confidence interval for estimating the population mean μ is ($60,112.60, $68087.40).
