A simple random sample of 28 Lego sets is obtained and the number of pieces in each set was counted.The sample has a standard deviation of 12.65. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the number of pieces in a set has a standard deviation different from 11.53.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A simple random sample n = 28

sample standard deviation S = 12.65

standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] = 11.53

Level of significance ∝ = 0.05

The objective is to test the claim that the number of pieces in a set has a standard deviation different from 11.53.

The null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as follows:

Null hypothesis:

[tex]H_0: \sigma^2 = \sigma_0^2[/tex]

Alternative hypothesis:

[tex]H_1: \sigma^2 \neq \sigma_0^2[/tex]

The test statistics can be determined by using the following formula in order to test if the claim is statistically significant or not.

[tex]X_0^2 = \dfrac{(n-1)S^2}{\sigma_0^2}[/tex]

[tex]X_0^2 = \dfrac{(28-1)(12.65)^2}{(11.53)^2}[/tex]

[tex]X_0^2 = \dfrac{(27)(160.0225)}{132.9409}[/tex]

[tex]X_0^2 = \dfrac{4320.6075}{132.9409}[/tex]

[tex]X_0^2 = 32.5002125[/tex]

[tex]X^2_{1- \alpha/2 , df} = X^2_{1- 0.05/2 , n-1}[/tex]

[tex]X^2_{1- \alpha/2 , df} = X^2_{1- 0.025 , 28-1}[/tex]

From the chi-square probabilities table at 0.975 and degree of freedom 27;

[tex]X^2_{0.975 , 27}[/tex] = 14.573

[tex]X^2_{\alpha/2 , df} = X^2_{ 0.05/2 , n-1}[/tex]

[tex]X^2_{\alpha/2 , df} = X^2_{0.025 , 28-1}[/tex]

From the chi-square probabilities table at 0.975 and degree of freedom 27;

[tex]X^2_{0.025 , 27}=[/tex] 43.195

Decision Rule: To reject the null hypothesis if [tex]X^2_0 \ > \ X^2_{\alpha/2 , df} \ \ \ or \ \ \ X^2_0 \ < \ X^2_{1- \alpha/2 , df}[/tex] ; otherwise , do not reject the null hypothesis:

The rejection region is [tex]X^2_0 \ > 43.195 \ \ \ or \ \ \ X^2_0 \ < \ 14.573[/tex]

Conclusion:

We fail to reject the null hypothesis since  test statistic value 32.5002125  lies  between 14.573 and 43.195.

Answer:

x is approximately 2.220744

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be simplified a little using properties of logarithms, and then solve it by graphing:

[tex]log(x)-log(x-1)^2=2\,log(x-1)\\log(x)-2\,log(x-1)=2\,log(x-1)\\log(x)=4\,log(x-1)[/tex]

Please see attached image for the graph and solution.

The value of x is approximately 2.220744

Answer:

  x = 2.32011574011

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem with your original equation is that it is a long way of saying ...

  log(x) -log(x) -1 = 2log(x-1)

  0 -1 = 2log(x-1)

which has the solution ...

  -1/2 = log(x -1)

  1/√10 = x -1

  x = 1 + 1/√10 ≈ 1.3162278

__

We have asked for clarification, and what we got was ...

  [tex]\log{(x)}-\log{(x-1^2)}=2\log{(x-1)}[/tex]

which, again, is a long way of saying ...

  [tex]\log{(x)}-\log{(x-1)}=2\log{(x-1)}[/tex]

The other reasonable interpretation of your 'clarified' equation is ...

  [tex]\log{(x)}-\log{((x-1)^2)}=2\log{(x-1)}[/tex]

which you already have an answer to. You have declared that a "misconception."

So, we are left with the interpretation that the equation you want a solution to is ...

  [tex]\log{(x)}-\log{(x-1)}=2\log{(x-1)}[/tex]

_____

When solving these graphically, I like to write the equation as a function whose zero(s) we're trying to find. For this, when we subtract the right side, we get ...

  [tex]f(x)=\log{(x)}-3\log{(x-1)}[/tex]

A graphing calculator shows that f(x) = 0 when ...

  x ≈ 2.32011574011

In training to run a half marathon, Jenny ran 2/5 hours on Tuesday, 11/6 hours on
Thursday, and 21/15 hours on Saturday. What is the total amount of hours that Jenny
ran this week? (Simplify your answer and state it as a mixed number.)
I​

Answers

Answer:

Total hours that Jenny ran = 3.63 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jenny ran on Tuesday for = 2/5 hours or 0.4 hours.

Time consumed to run on Thursday = 11/6 hours or 1.83 hours.

Time consumed to run on Saturday = 21/ 15 hours or 1.4 hours.

Here, the total hours can be calculated by just adding all the running hours. So the running hours of Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday will be added to find the total hours.

Total hours that Jenny ran = 0.4 + 1.83 + 1.4 = 3.63 hours.

During the school year, there were 315 total points scored between basketball, soccer, baseball, and football. The baseball team scored 55 points. The soccer team scored twice as much as the baseball team. The football team scored 0.5 more than 1.5 times as much as the baseball team. How many points did the basketball team score?

Answers

Answer:

67.5p.

Step-by-step explanation:

315p in total.

- Baseball has 55p.

- Soccer teams points = 55x2 = 110p.

-  Football team points = 110 x 0.5 = 55 x 1.5 = 82.5p.

So then you just do 315p - 82.5p - 55p - 110p = 67.5p

Given v(x) = g(x) (3/2*x^4 + 4x – 1), find v'(2).​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that v(x) = g(x)×(3/2*x^4+4x-1)

Let's find V'(2)

V(x) is a product of two functions

● V'(x) = g'(x)×(3/2*x^4+4x-1)+ g(x) ×(3/2*x^4+4x-1)

We are interested in V'(2) so we will replace x by 2 in the expression above.

g'(2) can be deduced from the graph.

● g'(2) is equal to the slope of the tangent line in 2.

● let m be that slope .

● g'(2) = m =>g'(2) = rise /run

● g'(2) = 2/1 =2

We've run 1 square to the right and rised 2 squares up to reach g(2)

g(2) is -1 as shown in the graph.

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Let's derivate the second function.

Let h(x) be that function

● h(x) = 3/2*x^4 +4x-1

● h'(x) = 3/2*4*x^3 + 4

● h'(x) = 6x^3 +4

Let's calculate h'(2)

● h'(2) = 6 × 2^3 + 4

● h'(2) = 52

Let's calculate h(2)

●h(2) = 3/2*2^4 + 4×2 -1

●h(2)= 31

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Replace now everything with its value to find V'(2)

● V'(2) = g'(2)×h(2) + g(2)× h'(2)

● V'(2)= 2×31 + (-1)×52

●V'(2) = 61 -52

●V'(2)= 9

Michael records the height of 1000 people. This data is a normal distribution and the sample mean was 0.75. Identify the margin of error for this data set.

Answers

Answer:

0.0284

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the Margin of error of a dataset is expressed as;

Margin of error = [tex]Z*\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} } \\\\[/tex] where;

Z is the z-score of 95% confidence interval = 1.96

p is the sample proportion/mean = 0.75

n is the sample size = total number of people = 1000

Note that when the confidence interval is not given, it is always safe to use 95% confidence.

Substituting this values into the formula we have;

[tex]ME = 1.96*\sqrt{\frac{0.7(1-0.7)}{1000} } \\\\ME = 1.96*\sqrt{\frac{0.7(0.3)}{1000} } \\\\ME = 1.96*\sqrt{0.00021} } \\\\ME = 1.96*0.01449\\\\ME = 0.0284[/tex]

Hence the margin error for the dataset is 0.0284

There are $400$ pages in Sheila's favorite book. The average number of words per page in the book is $300$. If she types at an average rate of $40$ words per minute, how many hours will it take to type the $400$ pages of the book?

Answers

Answer:

50hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are 400 pages in Sheila's favorite book.

The average number of words per page in the book is 300

She types an average rate of 40words per minute.

So to type 400pages of the book

Total number of words in the pages = 400×300 = 120000 words

Typing rate : 40words ------- 1minute

120000 words ----------- x minutes

Hence we have 40 × X mins = 120000 × 1min

Make X the subject

40X = 120000minutes

X = 120000/40

X = 3000minutes

Since 60minutes = 1hour

3000minutes = 3000minutes/60

= 50hours

Hence it took her 50hours to type 400pages

Solution:

The total number of words in the book is 400 x 300. Sheila types at a rate of 40 words per minute, or 40 x 60 words per hour. The number of hours it takes her is equal to the number of words divided by her rate of typing, or 400x300/40x60 = 50 hours.

Find the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the binomial distribution with the given values of n and p. n = 50 p = 0.2

Answers

Answer:

The mean, variance, and standard deviation of the binomial distribution are 10, 8, and 2.83 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the binomial distribution with the given values of n and p, i.e; n = 50 p = 0.2.

Let X = binomial random variable

So, X ~ Binom(n = 50, p = 0.2)

Now, the mean of the binomial distribution is given by;

         Mean of X, E(X) = n [tex]\times[/tex] p

                                    = 50 [tex]\times[/tex] 0.2 = 10

Now, the variance of the binomial distribution is given by;

        Variance of X, V(X) = n [tex]\times[/tex] p [tex]\times[/tex] (1 - p)

                                         = 50 [tex]\times[/tex] 0.2 [tex]\times[/tex] (1 - 0.2)

                                         = 10 [tex]\times[/tex] 0.8 = 8

Also, the standard deviation of the binomial distribution is given by;

        Standard deviation of X, S.D.(X) = [tex]\sqrt{\text{n} \times \text{p} \times (1 - \text{p})}[/tex]

                                                              = [tex]\sqrt{\text{50} \times \text{0.2} \times (1 - \text{0.2})}[/tex]

                                                              = [tex]\sqrt{8}[/tex] = 2.83

Please tell me the answer ASAP Lynette's average score on five tests is 18. If she scores 24 points on her sixth test, what is her average score on all six tests? Show Your Work

Answers

Answer:

The average score of 6 tests is 19.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the average score of 5 tests is 18. So first, we have to find the total number of scores for 5 tests :

[tex]let \: x = total \: no. \: of \: scores[/tex]

[tex] \frac{x}{5} = 18[/tex]

[tex]x = 18 \times 5[/tex]

[tex]x = 90[/tex]

We have found out that the total scores for 5 tests is 90. So we have to find the average of 6 scores :

[tex] \frac{x + 24}{5 + 1} = \frac{90 + 24}{6} = \frac{114}{6} = 19[/tex]

[tex] \LARGE{ \boxed{ \rm{ \pink{Solution : )}}}}[/tex]

Given:Average score in 5 tests = 18He scored 24 points in 6th point

To FinD:Find the average score in all six tests?

How to find?

We need to know how to find the average

☄ For this case, We are gonna find average score...!

[tex] \large{ \boxed{ \sf{Avg. \: score = \frac{Total \: score}{No. \: of \: tests} }}}[/tex]

So, Let's proceed further towards solution....

Solution:

We have,

Avg. score = 18No. of tests = 5

Finding total score in 5 tests,

⇛ Total score = Avg. score × No. of tests

⇛ Total score = 18 × 5

⇛ Total score = 90

According to question,

He scored 24 marks in 6th test

⇛ Total score now = 90 + 24 = 114

No. of tests = 6

Finding the average score of 6 tests,

⇛ Avg. score = 114 / 6

⇛ Avg. score = 19 points

A football team starts on the 10 yard line moving toward the 50 yard line so they can score on the other side of the field. In three plays they gain 14 yards, lose 12 yards, and gain 4 more yards. What yard line do they start their fourth play?

Answers

Answer:

16 yard line

Step-by-step explanation:

The football team is starting on the 10 yard line. In the first play, they move up to the 24 yard line. Then in the second play, they go back to the 12 yard line since they lost 12 yards. Then in the third play, they gain 4 yards so you add 4 to 12. They end up at the 16 yard line after the third play. This means that they're going to start their fourth play at the 16 yard line.

Answer:

16 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

They start at 10 yards. They are moving towards the 50 yard line, so gaining yards will add to the 10 yards instead of subtract from the 10 yards.

In the first play, they gain 14 yards. 10 + 14 = 24 yards.

In the second play, they lose 12 yards. 24 - 12 = 12 yards.

In the third play, they gain 4 yards. 12 + 4 = 16 yards, which is where they start their fourth play.

Line MN passes through points M(4, 3) and N(7, 12). If the equation of the line is written in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, what is the value of b? –15 –9 3 9

Answers

Answer:

b = -9.

Step-by-step explanation:

The line passes through (4, 3) and (7, 12). First, we need to find the slope: the rise over the run.

(12 - 3) / (7 - 4) = 9 / 3 = 3.

Now that we have the slope, we can say that m = 3. So, we have an equation of y = 3x + b. To find b, we can use M(4, 3) and say that y = 3 and x = 4.

3 = 3 * 4 + b

b + 12 = 3

b = -9.

Hope this helps!

The value of b in the equation is -9

How to determine the value of b?

The points are given as:

M(4, 3) and N(7, 12)

The equation is then calculated using:

[tex]y = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 -x_1} * (x - x_1) + y_1[/tex]

This gives

[tex]y = \frac{12 -3}{7 -4} * (x - 4) + 3[/tex]

Evaluate the quotient

y = 3 * (x - 4) + 3

Open the bracket

y = 3x - 12 + 3

Evaluate the difference

y = 3x - 9

Hence, the value of b is -9

The residents of a city voted on whether to raise property taxes. The ratio of yes votes to no votes was 6 to 5 . If there were 4545 no votes, what was the total number of votes?

Answers

Answer:

The total number of votes= 9999

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of vote specifically the ratio of yes to no vote in a city vote is 6 to 5.

There is a total of 4545 no votes.

Yes/no = 6/5

Yes= no(6/5)

Yes= 4545(6/5)

Yes= 5454

The total number of yes votes are 5454.

The total number of votes= yes votes+ no votes

The total number of votes= 5454+4545

The total number of votes= 9999
