A normal distribution has a mean of 30 and a variance of 5.Find N such that the probability that the mean of N observations exceeds 30.5 is 1%.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

109

Step-by-step explanation:

Use a chart or calculator to find the z-score corresponding to a probability of 1%.

P(Z > z) = 0.01

P(Z < z) = 0.99

z = 2.33

Now find the sample standard deviation.

z = (x − μ) / s

2.33 = (30.5 − 30) / s

s = 0.215

Now find the sample size.

s = σ / √n

s² = σ² / n

0.215² = 5 / n

n = 109

Answers

Answer:

The system of equations you want to be solved is not given. I would however give an example with which the method of elimination will be shown, and can be used in solving problems of the nature.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the system of equations:

x + y = 7 ................................(1)

2x - y = 8 ..............................(2)

To eliminate x:

First multiply (1) by 2 to have

2x + 2y = 14 ...........................(3)

Next, subtract (2) from (3) to have

3y = 6

y = 6/3 = 2

To eliminate y:

Add (1) and (2) to have

3x = 15

x = 15/3 = 5

Therefore, (x, y) = (5, 2).

A parent increases a child’s monthly allowance by 20% each year. If the allowance is $8 per month now, in about how many years will it take to reach $20 per month? Use the equation 20 = 8(1.2)x to solve the problem. Round to the nearest year. 1 year 5 years 2 years 16 years

Answers

Answer:

6 years

Step-by-step explanation:

A parent increases a child’s monthly allowance by 20% each year. If the allowance is $8 per month now. This is an exponential function, An exponential function is given by:

[tex]y=ab^x[/tex]

Let x be the number of years and y be the allowance. The initial allowance is $8, this means at x = 0, y = 8

[tex]y=ab^x\\8=ab^0\\a=8[/tex]

Since it increases by 20% each year, i.e 100% + 20% = 1 + 0.2 = 1.2. This means that b = 1.2

Therefore:

[tex]y=ab^x\\y=8(1.2^x) \\[/tex]

To find the number of years will it take to reach $20 per month, we substitute y = 20 and find x

[tex]20=8(1.2)^x\\20/8=1.2^x\\1.2^x=2.5\\Taking \ natural\ log\ of \ both\ sides:\\ln(1.2^x)=ln2.5\\xln(1.2)=0.9163\\x=0.9163/ln(1.2)\\x=5.026[/tex]

Amira has 3/4 of a bag of cat food her cat eats 1/10 of a bag per week how many weeks will the food last

Answers

Answer: 15/2 or 7.5 weeks.

If t represents the number of weeks that pass, then the situation can be represented as
3/4 - (1/10)t = 0
because the initial amount is 3/4 and it is decreasing by 1/10 per week, and we are trying to find when the bag will be empty (0).

Solving this, (1/10)t=3/4 -> t=15/2.

The amounts of nicotine in a certain brand of cigarette are normally distributed with a mean of 0.966 grams and a standard deviation of 0.315 grams. Find the probability of randomly selecting a cigarette with 0.305 grams of nicotine or less.

Answers

Answer:

The  probability is  [tex]P(X \le 0.305 ) = 0.01795[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The population mean is  [tex]\mu = 0.966 \ grams[/tex]

       The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 0.315 \ grams[/tex]

Given that the amounts of nicotine in a certain brand of cigarette are normally distributed

    Then the probability of randomly selecting a cigarette with 0.305 grams of nicotine or less is mathematically represented as

        [tex]P(X \le 0.305 ) = 1 - P(X > 0.305) = 1 - P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } > \frac{0.305 - \mu }{\sigma } )[/tex]

Generally

              [tex]\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } = Z (The \ standardized \ value \ of X )[/tex]

So  

      [tex]P(X \le 0.305 ) = 1 - P(X > 0.305) = 1 - P(Z > \frac{0.305 - 0.966 }{0.315} )[/tex]

      [tex]P(X \le 0.305 ) = 1 - P(X > 0.305) = 1 - P(Z >-2.0984 )[/tex]

From the z-table(reference calculator dot  net  ) value of   [tex]P(Z >-2.0984 ) =0.98205[/tex]

So  

     [tex]P(X \le 0.305 ) = 1 - P(X > 0.305) = 1 - 0.98205[/tex]

=>  [tex]P(X \le 0.305 ) = 1 - P(X > 0.305) = 0.01795[/tex]

=> [tex]P(X \le 0.305 ) = 0.01795[/tex]

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 5 inches long. One of the legs is 1 inch longer than the other. What is the length (in inches) of the longer leg?

Answers

Answer:  4  inches

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We gonna find the the length of the right triangle legs using Phitagor theorem.

c²=a²+b²  (1)   , where c is triangle's  hypotenuse

a and b are the triangle's  legs.

Let the leg a =x,    so leg b=x+1 inches

Now we can write the equation using (1)

25=x²+(x+1)²

25=x²+x²+2*x+1

2*x²+2*x-24=0     ( divide by 2 both sides of the equation)

x²+x-12=0

Find the discriminant D=1+12*4=49

√D=7

x1= (-1+7)/2=3     x2=(-1-7)/2=-4 - x2=-4 not possible so length of the leg can not be negative.

So the shorter leg a=x= 3 inches

The longer leg b=x+1=4 inches

A sample of bacteria is decaying according to a half-life model. If the sample begins with 700 bacteria, and after 10 minutes there are 140 bacteria, after how many minutes will there be 40 bacteria remaining? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

18 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

A = A₀ (½)^(t / T)

where A is the final amount,

A₀ is the initial amount,

t is the time,

and T is the half life.

A = 140 when t = 10.  Solve for the half life:

140 = 700 (½)^(10 / T)

0.2 = ½^(10 / T)

log 0.2 = (10 / T) log 0.5

10 / T = 2.32

T = 4.31

When A = 40, t is:

40 = 700 (½)^(t / 4.31)

0.057 = ½^(t / 4.31)

log 0.057 = (t / 4.31) log 0.5

t / 4.31 = 4.13

t = 17.8

Rounded to the nearest whole number, it takes 18 minutes.

The time taken for bacteria to reach 40 according to the exponential half-life decay formula is 18 minutes.

What is an exponential function?

In mathematics, an exponential function is a relationship of the type y = ax, where x is an independent variable that spans the entire real number line and is expressed as the exponent of a positive number.

The half-life decay formula is given as,

N(t) = N₀ [tex](1/2)^{(t / T)}[/tex]

Where T is half-life while t is the time taken.

N₀ is the initial amount,

As per the given,

N(t) = 140 when t = 10.

140 = 700 [tex](1/2)^{(t / T)}[/tex]

Take log both sides,

log 0.2 = (10 / T) log 0.5

10 / T = 2.32

T = 4.31 minutes

Put N(t) = 40

40 = 700[tex](1/2)^{(t / 4.31)}[/tex]

Take log both sides,

log 0.057 = (t / 4.31) log 0.5

t / 4.31 = 4.13

t = 17.8 ≈ 18 minutes

Hence "The time taken for bacteria to reach 40 according to the exponential half-life decay formula is 18 minutes".

A carpenter is making doors that are 20582058 millimeters tall. If the doors are too long they must be trimmed, and if they are too short they cannot be used. A sample of 1010 doors is made, and it is found that they have a mean of 20462046 millimeters with a standard deviation of 1515. Is there evidence at the 0.050.05 level that the doors are too short and unusable

Answers

Answer:

Z= 0.253

Z∝/2 = ± 1.96

Step-by-step explanation:

Formulate the null and alternative hypotheses as

H0 : u1= u2 against Ha : u1≠ u2 This is a two sided test

Here ∝= 0.005

For alpha by 2 for a two tailed test Z∝/2 = ± 1.96

Standard deviation = s= 15

n= 10

The test statistic used here is

Z = x- x`/ s/√n

Z= 2058- 2046 / 15 / √10

Z= 0.253

Since the calculated value of Z= 0.253 falls in the critical region we reject the null hypothesis.

There is  evidence at the 0.05 level that the doors are too short and unusable.

Given a population with a mean of µ = 100 and a variance of σ2 = 1600, the central limit theorem applies when the sample size is n ≥ 25. A random sample of size n = 50 is obtained. • What are the mean and variance of the sampling distribution for the sample means? • What is the probability that ¯X > 110?

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the sample mean is more than 110 is 0.0384.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central Limit Theorem if we have an unknown population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and appropriately huge random samples (n > 30) are selected from the population with replacement, then the sampling distribution of the sample mean will be approximately normally distributed.  

Then, the mean of the sampling distribution of sample mean is given by:

[tex]\mu_{\bar x}=\mu[/tex]

And the variance of the sampling distribution of sample mean is given by:

[tex]\sigma^{2}_{\bar x}=\frac{\sigma^{2}}{n}[/tex]

The information provided is:

[tex]n=50\\\\\mu=100\\\\\sigma^{2}=1600[/tex]

Since n = 50 > 30, the central limit theorem can be applied to approximate the sampling distribution of sample mean by the normal distribution.

The mean variance of the sampling distribution for the sample mean are:

[tex]\mu_{\bar x}=\mu=100\\\\\sigma^{2}_{\bar x}=\frac{\sigma^{2}}{n}=\frac{1600}{50}=32[/tex]

That is, [tex]\bar X\sim N(100, 32)[/tex].

Compute the probability that the sample mean is more than 110 as follows:

[tex]P(\bar X>110)=P(\frac{\bar X-\mu_{\bar x}}{\sigma_{\bar x}}>\frac{110-100}{\sqrt{32}})[/tex]

                   [tex]=P(Z>1.77)\\=1-P(Z<1.77)\\=1-0.96164\\=0.03836\\\approx 0.0384[/tex]

*Use a z-table.

Thus, the probability that the sample mean is more than 110 is 0.0384.

A television screen has a length to width ratio of 8 to 5 and a perimeter of 117 inches. What is the diagonal measure of the screen (to the nearest tenth of an inch)?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]D = 42.5\ inch[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]L = Length[/tex] and [tex]W = Width[/tex]

[tex]L:W = 8: 5[/tex]

[tex]Perimeter = 117[/tex]

Required

Determine the Diagonal

First, the dimension of the screen has to be calculated;

Recall that; [tex]L:W = 8: 5[/tex]

Convert to division

[tex]\frac{L}{W} = \frac{8}{5}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by W

[tex]W * \frac{L}{W} = \frac{8}{5} * W[/tex]

[tex]L = \frac{8W}{5}[/tex]

The perimeter of a rectangle:

[tex]Perimeter = 2(L+W)[/tex]

Substitute [tex]L = \frac{8W}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Perimeter = 2(\frac{8W}{5}+W)[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]Perimeter = 2(\frac{8W + 5W}{5})[/tex]

[tex]Perimeter = 2(\frac{13W}{5})[/tex]

Substitute 117 for Perimeter

[tex]117 = 2(\frac{13W}{5})[/tex]

[tex]117 = \frac{26W}{5}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by [tex]\frac{5}{26}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5}{26} * 117 = \frac{26W}{5} * \frac{5}{26}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5 * 117}{26} = W[/tex]

[tex]\frac{585}{26} = W[/tex]

[tex]22.5 = W[/tex]

[tex]W = 22.5[/tex]

Recall that

[tex]L = \frac{8W}{5}[/tex]

[tex]L = \frac{8 * 22.5}{5}[/tex]

[tex]L = \frac{180}{5}[/tex]

[tex]L = 36[/tex]

The diagonal of a rectangle is calculated using Pythagoras theorem as thus;

[tex]D = \sqrt{L^2 + W^2}[/tex]

Substitute values for L and W

[tex]D = \sqrt{36^2 + 22.5^2}[/tex]

[tex]D = \sqrt{1296 + 506.25}[/tex]

[tex]D = \sqrt{1802.25}[/tex]

[tex]D = \sqrt{1802.25}[/tex]

[tex]D = 42.4529150943[/tex]

Question:
In exercises 1 through 4, find the one-sided limits lim x->2(left) f(x) and limx-> 2(right) from the given graph of f and determine whether lim x->2 f(x) exists.​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

For a left-hand limit, we start at the left side and move right, and see where the function goes as we get close to the x value.

For a right-hand limit, we start at the right side and move left, and see where the function goes as we get close to the x value.

If the two limits are equal, then the limit exists.  Otherwise, it doesn't.

1.  As we approach x = 2 from the left, f(x) approaches -2.

lim(x→2⁻) f(x) = -2

As we approach x = 2 from the right, f(x) approaches 1.

lim(x→2⁺) f(x) = 1

The limits are not the same, so the limit does not exist.

lim(x→2) f(x) = DNE

2. As we approach x = 2 from the left, f(x) approaches 4.

lim(x→2⁻) f(x) = 4

As we approach x = 2 from the right, f(x) approaches 2.

lim(x→2⁺) f(x) = 2

The limits are not the same, so the limit does not exist.

lim(x→2) f(x) = DNE

3. As we approach x = 2 from the left, f(x) approaches 2.

lim(x→2⁻) f(x) = 2

As we approach x = 2 from the right, f(x) approaches 2.

lim(x→2⁺) f(x) = 2

The limits are equal, so the limit exists.

lim(x→2) f(x) = 2

4. As we approach x = 2 from the left, f(x) approaches 2.

lim(x→2⁻) f(x) = 2

As we approach x = 2 from the right, f(x) approaches infinity.

lim(x→2⁺) f(x) = ∞

The limits are not the same, so the limit does not exist.

lim(x→2) f(x) = DNE

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The box contains 5 red and 4 white balls.

A) The probability that at least 1 ball was​ red = P(both are red) + P(first is red and second is white) + P(first is white second is red)

Given that the first ball was (Upper A )Replaced before the second draw:

P(both are red) = P(red) × P(red) = 5/9 × 5/9 = 25/81

P(first is red and second is white) = P(red) × P(white) = 5/9 × 4/9 = 20/81

P(first is white and second is red) = P(white) × P(red) = 4/9 × 5/9 = 20/81

The probability that at least 1 ball was​ red = 25/81 + 20/81 + 20/81 = 65/81

B) The probability that at least 1 ball was​ red = P(both are red) + P(first is red and second is white) + P(first is white second is red)

Given that the first ball was not Replaced before the second draw:

P(both are red) = P(red) × P(red) = 5/9 × 4/8 = 20/72 (since it was not replaced after the first draw the number of red ball remaining would be 4 and the total ball remaining would be 8)

P(first is red second is white) = P(red) × P(white) = 5/9 × 4/8 = 20/72

P(first is white and second is red) = P(white) × P(red) = 4/9 × 5/8 = 20/72

The probability that at least 1 ball was​ red = 20/72 + 20/72 + 20/72 = 60/72

in this diagram, bac~edf. if the area of bac= 6 in.², what is the area of edf? PLZ HELP PLZ PLZ PLZ

Answers

Answer:

2.7 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of ∆BAC : ∆Area of EDF = BC² : EF² (based on the area of similar triangles theorem)

Thus:

[tex] 6 in^2 : x in^2 = (3 in)^2 : (2 in)^2 [/tex]

[tex]\frac{6}{x} = \frac{3^2}{2^2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{6}{x} = 2.25[/tex]

[tex]\frac{6}{x}*x = 2.25*x[/tex]

[tex]6 = 2.25x[/tex]

[tex]\frac{6}{2.25} = \frac{2.25x}{2.25}[/tex]

[tex]2.67 = x[/tex]

Area of ∆EDF = 2.7 in²

The product of a number and 3 is equal to 15 minutes twice the number, find the number.​

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number to be found be x

The product of a number and 3 is written as

3 × x = 3x

15 minus twice the number is written as

15 - 2x

Now equate the two statements

That's

3x = 15 - 2x

Group like terms

3x + 2x = 15

5x = 15

Divide both sides by 5

the final answer is

x = 3

Hope this helps you

Answers

Answer: -3

Step-by-step explanation: 2x = -2 then you subtract 1 from that which is the same as adding negative one so -2 - 1 or -2 + -1 = -3

A Prefeitura da Cidade Feliz doou um
terreno para a Comunidade Viver Bem
discutir projetos que deveriam ser
implantados no local. Após um planejamento
participativo, ficou acertado que 45% da área
total desse terreno serão destinados a uma
creche;
3%,
para banheiros públicos e 12%
para uma academia de ginástica comunitária.
A sobra da área, que é de 960m² será
utilizada para uma pequena praça com
parque de lazer. Qual é a área total ocupada
pela creche, banheiros públicos e academia
de ginástica comunitária?

Answers

Aqui temos a seguinte divisao de terreno:

creche + banheiros + academia = 45% + 3% + 12% = 60%

O que sobra: Fazendo a conta, 100 - 60 = 40, restará 40%

No enunciado informa que sobraram 960m².

Logo concluimos que 40% = 960m²

Sendo assim, regra de 3:

   m²                %

  960   --------   40

    X     --------   60

40X = 960 . 60

X = 57600/40

X = 1440

Logo 1440m² é destinado para: creche, banheiros públicos e academia

de ginástica comunitária.

O terreno tem um total de 1440 + 960 = 2400m²

para cada espaço - novamente diversas regra de 3:

→ creche = 45%

    m²                  %

  2400   --------   100

    X        --------    45

X = 108000/100 = 1080

 

→ banheiros públicos  = 3%

    m²                  %

  2400   --------   100

    X        --------    3

X = 7200/100 = 72

→ academia de ginástica comunitária = 12%

    m²                  %

  2400   --------   100

    X        --------    12

X = 28800/100 = 288

provando:

60% = 1440m²  (visto acima)

creche - 1080

banheiros - 72

academia - 288

1080 + 72 + 288 = 1440 (60%)

Question 3: The gasoline gauge on a van initially read ⅛ full. When 15 gallons of gasoline were added to the tank, the gauge then read ¾ full. How many more gallons would be needed to fill the tank?

Answers

Answer:

hi

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4=6/8

6/8-1/8=5/8

So 5/8 of the tank is 15 gallons.  This means each 1/8 of a tank is 3 gallons.

The van is currently 6/8 full. We need to add another 2/8 to completely fill the tank.  

2x3=6

You’ll need 6 more gallons to fill the tank.


The length of each side of a cubical wooden block is 16 inches. What is the volume of
the block

Answers

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

To find the volume of a cube, you simply take whatever the side length is and multiply it by itself 3 times, which is also known as cubing the number!

16×16×16=4096

You can also write it as 16³=4096

This is because the length is 16, the width is 16, and the height is 16, so you multiply them all together!

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day!
