A machine used to fill beverage cans is supposed to put exactly 12 ounces of beverage in each can, but the actual amount varies. The standard deviation of fill volumes is 0.05 ounce. How large a sample of cans must be selected to estimate the population mean fill volume with a 95% confidence interval that has a margin of error of 0.008 ounce? Round your answer UP to the nearest integer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A sample of 151 cans must be selected.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

The standard deviation of fill volumes is 0.05 ounce.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 0.05[/tex]

How large a sample of cans must be selected to estimate the population mean fill volume with a 95% confidence interval that has a margin of error of 0.008 ounce?

We need a sample of n.

n is found when M = 0.008. So

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.008 = 1.96\frac{0.05}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.008\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.05[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.05}{0.008}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*0.05}{0.008})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 150.1[/tex]

Rounding up:

A sample of 151 cans must be selected.

This is a really good question to know the answer to. <PRQ = 1/2 POQ (the central angle. )

The central angle for this question is 110o. So any angle that has its vertex on the circumference is 1/2 110 = 55. The central angle and the angle on the circumference must be related as they are as this question is. (Both are on the same side of PQ which is not drawn but you can draw it).

Find the volume of a cone with a base diameter of 10 cm and a height of 9 cm

Answers

Answer:

235.71cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of cone = 1/3 pie r^2 h

1/3*22/7*5*5*9

= 235.71cm^2

Volume of a cone is 235.6 cm³.

Why is the volume of a cone?The volume of a cone with height h and radius r is 1/3πr2h, which is exactly one third the volume of the smallest cylinder that it fits inside. This can be proved easily by considering a cone as a solid of revolution, but I would like to know if it can be proved or at least visual demonstrated without using calculus.  

The volume of a cone is calculated the using the formula:

[tex]V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^{3} h[/tex]

Given,

         height of the cylinder is, h=9cm.

         The diameter of the base is 10cm. r = 5 cm

    put the values into the formula to get -

          V = [tex]\frac{1}{3} * \pi * 5^{2} * 9[/tex]

         [tex]V = 75 \pi[/tex]

Put value of π = 3. 14 ,

          V = 75 * 3.14

           V =  235.6 cm³

Therefore, Volume of a cone is 235.6 cm³.

3. Solve the system for x and y. 7x+8y= 26 -12X-7y=-58​

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (x, y) = (6, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

My favorite fast and easy way to solve pairs of linear equations is to use a graphing calculator. The one below shows the solution to be ...

  (x, y) = (6, -2)

__

There is no simple way to use substitution or elimination on these equations, so we elect to use the "cross multiplication method." First, we write the equations in "general form", then write the coefficients in two rows, repeating the first coefficient.

  7x +8y -26 = 0

  12x +7y -58 = 0

__

  [tex]\left[\begin{array}{cccc}7&8&-26&7\\12&7&-58&12\end{array}\right][/tex]

The method gets its name from this next step: compute the difference of cross products of pairs of adjacent columns.

  d1 = (7)(7) -(12)(8) = -47

  d2 = (8)(-58) -(7)(-26) = -282

  d3 = (-26)(12) -(-58)(7) = 94

The solution to the equations is given by ...

  1/d1 = x/d2 = y/d3   ⇒  

  x = d2/d1 = -282/-47 = 6

  y = d3/d1 = 94/-47 = -2

The solution is (x, y) = (6, -2).

_____

Additional comment

If you watch videos on this solution method you will notice the 2×4 array of coefficients is formulated slightly differently, and the final equation has the 1/( ) term at the right end of the series of equalities. We judge this variation to be less confusing and easier to remember. YMMV

The work involved in using this method is 6 multiplies, 3 adds, and 2 divides. We believe that is less work than either substitution or elimination when there is no simplification possible.

Usually if measured in feet then we have a scale = 1cm -1ft maybe.

so if you measure 3cm x 4cm then we have 12cm area = 12ft area if.  Or if you have 2cm x 5cm = 10cm area = 10ft area   if you have 4cm x 5cm = 20cm = 20ft area

etc. etc.  Just make sure you say cm then ft in scale conversion.

Mr. Brady is using a coordinate plane to design a treasure hunt for his students. The hunt begins at the flagpole. The first clue is hidden 5 units north of the flagpole. The second clue is located 6 units east of the flagpole. Clue 2 says that Clue 3 is located 5 units south of the flagpole. N -4 -2 o N 4 6 X -2 -4 Plot the locations of the flagpole and the 3 clues on the coordinate grid and show the path students will follow with straight lines. Each unit represents 50 feet. What is the shortest combined distance along the path from the flagpole to Clue 1 to Clue 2 to Clue 3? Round to the nearest foot if necessary. ​

Answers

Answer:

The figure is attached and the total distance is 1031 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph is indicated in the attached figure.

For calculation of distance consider following

Point Flagpole is (0,0)

Point Clue1 is (0,5)

Point Clue2 is (6,0)

Point Clue3 is (0,-5)

So the distance is calculated as follows

[tex]d_{T}=[d_{FP\ to\ Clue1}+d_{Clue1\ to\ Clue2}+d_{Clue2\ to\ Clue3}]*distance\ per\ unit\\d_{T}=[\sqrt{(Clue1_x-FP_x)^2+(Clue1_y-FP_y)^2}+\sqrt{(Clue2_x-Clue1_x)^2+(Clue2_y-Clue1_y)^2}+\sqrt{(Clue3_x-Clue2_x)^2+(Clue3_y-Clue2_y)^2}]**distance\ per\ unit\\[/tex]Substituting the values

[tex]d_{T}=[\sqrt{(0-0)^2+(5-0)^2}+\sqrt{(6-0)^2+(0-5)^2}+\sqrt{(0-6)^2+(-5-0)^2}]*50 \text{ feet}\\d_{T}=[\sqrt{(0)^2+(5)^2}+\sqrt{(6)^2+(-5)^2}+\sqrt{(-6)^2+(-5)^2}]*50 \text{ feet}\\d_{T}=[\sqrt{0+25}+\sqrt{36+25}+\sqrt{36+25}]*50 \text{ feet}\\d_{T}=[\sqrt{25}+\sqrt{61}+\sqrt{61}]*50 \text{ feet}\\d_{T}=[5+7.81+7.81]*50 \text{ feet}\\d_{T}=[20.62]*50 \text{ feet}\\d_{T}=1031 \text{ feet}\\[/tex]

So the total distance travelled is 1031 feet.

The machinery ages three years for every $10,000 loss in value.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see from the graph that each year, the machinery loses a value of $5,000 (Goes from $50,000 to $45,000 after year one, from $45,000 to $40,000 after year two etc). So we can discount the last two answers.

If it loses $5,000 each year, it loses $15,00 after ageing three years, and $25,00 after five years. Though neither of the first two answers correspond to this, the first answer is closest.

A roadside assistance company gets millions of requests per year, with about a quarter of the requests in

requests are for help with a lockout. A data analyst pulls separate random samples of 200 summer and winter
requests and will look at the difference (summer winter) between the proportion of requests for help with
a lockout in each sample.
What are the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the difference in sample
proportions?

Answers

Answer: -0.03

sqrt ((0.12 (0.88) / 200) + (0.15)(0.85)/200)

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of the sampling distribution of the difference in sample proportions is -0.03, and the standard deviation is 0.0321.

What is the standard deviation?

A standard deviation (σ) is a measure of the distribution of the data in reference to the mean.

The proportion of lockout help requests in the summer population is 12% or 0.12, and the proportion in the winter population is 15% or 0.15. The sample sizes are both 200.

Using these values, we can calculate the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the difference in sample proportions:

Mean = p₁ - p₂ = 0.12 - 0.15 = -0.03

Standard deviation = √[ (p₁ (1 - p₁) / n₁) + (p₂ (1 - p₂) / n₂) ]

= √[ (0.12 (1 - 0.12) / 200) + (0.15 (1 - 0.15) / 200) ]

= √[ (0.000504) + (0.000525) ]

= √[ 0.001029 ]

= 0.0321

Therefore, the mean of the sampling distribution of the difference in sample proportions is -0.03, and the standard deviation is 0.0321.

  f(x) = {-x for x < 2; 2x-3 for x ≥ 2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The blue line extending to the left has a slope of -1 and a y-intercept of 0. Its equation is y = -x. That part of the definition of f(x) is applicable for values of x less than 2. (The open dot at (2, -2) tells you that point is not included.)

The red line extending to the right has a slope = rise/run = 2/1 = 2. The y-intercept can be found by extending the line to the y-axis, or from the computation ...

  b = y -mx

  b = 1 -2(2) = -3 . . . . . for the point (x, y) = (2, 1)

Then the slope-intercept equation for the red line is ...

  y = 2x -3

That part of the definition of f(x) is applicable for values of x ≥ 2. The solid dot tells you the point (2, 1) is included.

Putting these parts together, we get ...

  [tex]f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{cc}-x&\text{if $x<2$}\\2x-3&\text{if $x\ge2$}\end{array}\right.[/tex]
