According to records, the amount of precipitation in a certain city on a November day has a mean of inches, with a standard deviation of inches. What is the probability that the mean daily precipitation will be inches or less for a random sample of November days (taken over many years)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability that the mean daily precipitation will be of X inches or less for a random sample of n November days is the p-value of [tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex], in which [tex]\mu[/tex] is mean amount of inches of rain and [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation.

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.

In this question:

Mean [tex]\mu[/tex], standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex]

n days:

This means that [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

Applying the Central Limit Theorem to the z-score formula.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

What is the probability that the mean daily precipitation will be of X inches or less for a random sample of November days?

The probability that the mean daily precipitation will be of X inches or less for a random sample of n November days is the p-value of [tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex], in which [tex]\mu[/tex] is mean amount of inches of rain and [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation.

What is the smallest number you should subtract from 456 to make it divisible by 9?

Answers

Add up all the digits

4+5+6=15

The sum of the digits must be equal to 9 so,


15=9

15–9=0

So,it is equal to 6.If we subtract 6 from 456 i.e.,

=456–6

=450

Which is divisible by 9 so,the answer is 6.But if we subtract any digit less than 6 it will not be divisible by 9.






A professor has been teaching introductory statistics for many years and the final exam performance has been very consistent from class to class and the scores have been normally distributed. Overall, the whole data base (i.e. population) of final scores has a mean (μ) of 24 points (out of a maximum of 30 points) and a standard deviation (Ï) of 5 points. The professor would like to revise the course design to see if student performance on the final could be improved.

The new course design was implemented in the most recent academic year. There were 100 students and the average final exam score was 24.7. The professor would like to run a hypothesis test to see if this sample of students in the recent academic year performed significantly better than the past population. In other words, the hypothesis was a comparison between the population taking the course with the new design (represented by the sample of 100 students) with the population taking the course with the old design. The professor is predicting an increase of final score with the new design, so the hypotheses should be directional, and the test should be one-tailed. The significance level is set at α = .1.

Required:
a. Identify the dependent variable for this study.
b. State the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis using both words and symbol notation

Answers

Answer:

a) Independent variable - Design of the course

Dependent variable - Final score of the students

b)  H0 - Final score >24.7

Alternate hypothesis - Final score is less than or equal to 24.7

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Independent variable - Design of the course

Dependent variable - Final score of the students

b) Null Hypothesis : Performance of student taking course with the new design is better as compared to the population of student taking the course with the old design.

H0 - Final score >24.7

Alternate hypothesis - Final score is less than or equal to 24.7

Suppose 2500 dollars is invested at 4% for 5 years. Find the account balance if it is
compounded daily, monthly, quarterly?
answer step by step

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the compound interest formula :

A = P(1 + r/n)^nt

A = final amount ; r = rate ; n = number of compounding times per period ; t = period ; P = principal

P = 2500 ; r = 4% = 0.04 ; t = 5 years

Daily compounding, n = 365

Yearly compounding, n = 1

Quarterly compounding, n = 4

Daily compounding :

A = 2500(1 + 0.04/365)^(5*365)

A = 2500(1.0001095)^1825

A = $3053.4734

Yearly :

A = 2500(1 + 0.04/1)^(5*1)

A = 2500(1.04)^5

A = $3041.6323

Quarterly:

A = 2500(1 + 0.04/4)^(5*4)

A = 2500(1.01)^20

A = $3050.4751

25. Approximate the sample variance and standard deviation given the following frequency distribution: Class Frequency 0–9 13 10–19 7 20–29 10 30–39 9 40–49 11

Answers

Answer:

Sample variance = 228.408

Standard deviation = 15.113

Step-by-step explanation:

The well formatted frequency table has been attached to this response.

To calculate the sample variance and standard deviation of the given grouped data, follow these steps:

i. Find the midpoint (m) of the class interval.

This is done by adding the lower bounds and upper bounds of the class intervals and dividing the result by 2. i.e

For class 0 - 9, we have

m = (0 + 9) / 2 = 4.5

For class 10 - 19, we have

m = (10 + 19) / 2 = 14.5

For class 20 - 29, we have

m = (20 + 29) / 2 = 24.5

For class 30 - 39, we have

m = (30 + 39) / 2 = 34.5

For class 40 - 49, we have

m = (40 + 49) / 2 = 44.5

This is shown in the third column of the attached table.

ii. Find the product of each of the frequencies of the class intervals and their corresponding midpoints. i.e

For class 0 - 9, we have

frequency (f) = 13

midpoint (m) = 4.5

=> f x m = 13 x 4.5 = 58.5

For class 10 - 19, we have

frequency (f) = 7

midpoint (m) = 14.5

=> f x m = 7 x 14.5 = 101.5

For class 20 - 29, we have

frequency (f) = 10

midpoint (m) = 24.5

=> f x m = 10 x 24.5 = 245

For class 30 - 39, we have

frequency (f) = 9

midpoint (m) = 34.5

=> f x m = 9 x 34.5 = 310.5

For class 40 - 49, we have

frequency (f) = 11

midpoint (m) = 44.5

=> f x m = 11 x 44.5 = 489.5

This is shown in the fourth column of the attached table.

iii. Calculate the mean (x) of the distribution i.e

This is done by finding the sum of all the results in (ii) above and dividing the outcome by the sum of the frequencies. i.e

x = ∑(f x m) ÷ ∑f

Where;

∑(f x m) = 58.5 + 101.5 + 245 + 310.5 + 489.5 = 1205

∑f = 13 + 7 + 10 + 9 + 11 = 50

=> x = 1205 ÷ 50

=> x = 24.1

Therefore, the mean is 24.1

This is shown on the fifth column of the attached table.

iv. Calculate the deviation of the midpoints from the mean.

This is done by finding the difference between the midpoints and the mean. i.e m - x where x = mean = 24.1 and m = midpoint

For class 0 - 9, we have

midpoint (m) = 4.5

=> m - x = 4.5 - 24.1 = -19.6

For class 10 - 19, we have

midpoint (m) = 14.5

=> m - x = 14.5 - 24.1 = -9.6

For class 20 - 29, we have

midpoint (m) = 24.5

=> m - x = 24.5 - 24.1 = 0.4

For class 30 - 39, we have

midpoint (m) = 34.5

=> m - x = 34.5 - 24.1 = 10.4

For class 40 - 49, we have

midpoint (m) = 44.5

=> m - x = 44.5 - 24.1 = 20.4

This is shown on the sixth column of the attached table.

v. Find the square of each of the results in (iv) above.

This is done by finding (m-x)²

For class 0 - 9, we have

=> (m - x)² = (-19.6)² = 384.16

For class 10 - 19, we have

=> (m - x)² = (-9.6)² = 92.16

For class 20 - 29, we have

=> (m - x)² = (0.4)² = 0.16

For class 30 - 39, we have

=> (m - x)² = (10.4)² = 108.16

For class 40 - 49, we have

=> (m - x)² = (20.4)² = 416.16

This is shown on the seventh column of the attached table.

vi. Multiply each of the results in (v) above by their corresponding frequencies.

This is done by finding f(m-x)²

For class 0 - 9, we have

=> f(m - x)² = 13 x 384.16 =  4994.08

For class 10 - 19, we have

=> f(m - x)² = 7 x 92.16 = 645.12

For class 20 - 29, we have

=> f(m - x)² = 10 x 0.16 = 1.6

For class 30 - 39, we have

=> f(m - x)² = 9 x 108.16 = 973.44

For class 40 - 49, we have

=> f(m - x)² = 11 x 416.16 = 4577.76

This is shown on the eighth column of the attached table.

vi. Calculate the sample variance.

Variance σ², is calculated by using the following relation;

σ² = ∑f(m-x)² ÷ (∑f - 1)

This means the variance is found by finding the sum of the results in (vi) above and then dividing the result by one less than the sum of all the frequencies.

∑f(m-x)² = sum of the results in (vi)

∑f(m-x)² = 4994.08 + 645.12 + 1.6 + 973.44 + 4577.76 = 11192

∑f - 1 = 50 - 1 = 49         {Remember that ∑f was calculated in (iii) above}

∴ σ² = 11192 ÷ 49 = 228.408

Therefore, the variance is 228.408

vii. Calculate the standard deviation

Standard deviation σ, is calculated by using the following relation;

σ =√ [ ∑f(m-x)² ÷ (∑f - 1) ]

This is done by taking the square root of the variance calculated above.

σ = [tex]\sqrt{228.408}[/tex]

σ = 15.113

Therefore, the standard deviation is 15.113

maximum height: 26.5 ftair time: 2.5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

I find the easiest way to answer these questions is to use a graphing calculator. It can show you the extreme values and the intercepts. The graph below shows the maximum height is 26.5 ft. The time in air is about 2.5 seconds.

__

If you prefer to solve this algebraically, you can use the equation of the axis of symmetry to find the time of the maximum height:

  t = -b/(2a) = -(40)/(2×-16) = 5/4

Then the maximum height is ...

  h(5/4) = -16(5/4)² +40(5/4) +1.5 = -25 +50 +1.5 = 26.5 . . . feet

__

Now that we know the vertex of the function, we can write it in vertex form:

  h(t) = -16(t -5/4)² +26.5

Solving for the value of t that makes this zero, we get ...

  0 = -16(t -5/4)² +26.5

  16(t -5/4)² = 26.5

  (t -5/4)² = 26.5/16 = 1.65625

Then ...

  t = 1.25 +√1.65625 ≈ 2.536954

The cannon ball is in the air about 2.5 seconds.

Suppose your marketing colleague used a known population mean and standard deviation to compute the standard error as 67.5 for samples of a particular size. You don't know the particular sample size but your colleague told you that the sample size is greater than 70. Your boss asks what the standard error would be if you quadruple (4x) the sample size. What is the standard error for the new sample size

Answers

Answer:

The standard error for the new sample size will be of 33.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

Standard error as 67.5 for samples of a particular size.

We have that [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex], that is, the standard error is inversely proportional to the square root of the sample size, so if you quadruple (4x) the sample size, the standard error will be divided by half. So

67.5/2 = 33.75

The standard error for the new sample size will be of 33.75.

Suppose X has an exponential distribution with mean equal to 23. Determine the following:

(b) P(X >20)
(c) P(X <30)
(d) Find the value of x such that P(X

Answers

Answer:

a) P(X > 10) = 0.6473

b) P(X > 20) = 0.4190

c) P(X < 30) = 0.7288

d) x = 68.87

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential distribution:

The exponential probability distribution, with mean m, is described by the following equation:

[tex]f(x) = \mu e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

In which [tex]\mu = \frac{1}{m}[/tex] is the decay parameter.

The probability that x is lower or equal to a is given by:

[tex]P(X \leq x) = \int\limits^a_0 {f(x)} \, dx[/tex]

Which has the following solution:

[tex]P(X \leq x) = 1 - e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

The probability of finding a value higher than x is:

[tex]P(X > x) = 1 - P(X \leq x) = 1 - (1 - e^{-\mu x}) = e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

Mean equal to 23.

This means that [tex]m = 23, \mu = \frac{1}{23} = 0.0435[/tex]

(a) P(X >10)

[tex]P(X > 10) = e^{-0.0435*10} = 0.6473[/tex]

So

P(X > 10) = 0.6473

(b) P(X >20)

[tex]P(X > 20) = e^{-0.0435*20} = 0.4190[/tex]

So

P(X > 20) = 0.4190

(c) P(X <30)

[tex]P(X \leq 30) = 1 - e^{-0.0435*30} = 0.7288[/tex]

So

P(X < 30) = 0.7288

(d) Find the value of x such that P(X > x) = 0.05

So

[tex]P(X > x) = e^{-\mu x}[/tex]

[tex]0.05 = e^{-0.0435x}[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-0.0435x}} = \ln{0.05}[/tex]

[tex]-0.0435x = \ln{0.05}[/tex]

[tex]x = -\frac{\ln{0.05}}{0.0435}[/tex]

R to T , W to Q, S to U is going to be identical to P to V. P to V has been identified as 12 cm.

in the middle of the shape, there are 4 identical triangles. the height time length will give us the area of that one shape:

e.g for shape P to V to W to Q and back to P is one rectangle. the length is 12 cm and the width is 3 cm.

12 x 3= 36

36cm^3 is one rectangles surface area, we have 4 identical triangles that means we need to times 36 by 4.

so 36x4=144.

now on the left and right side, we have two squares. on the right, we have T to U to V to W back to T this has the height of 3 width of 4 then we do 3 X 4 which is 12, we times it by 2 because we have two identical squares.

12 X 2=24

finally we add 24 and 144 = 168cm^3.

A minority representation group accuses a major bank of racial discrimination in its recent hires for financial analysts. Exactly 16% of all applications were from minority members, and exactly 15% of the 2100 open positions were filled by members of the minority.

Required:
a. Find the mean of p, where p is the proportion of minority member applications in a random sample of 2100 that is drawn from all applications.
b. Find the standard deviation of p.

Answers

Answer:

a) The mean is of [tex]\mu = 0.16[/tex]

b) The standard deviation is of [tex]s = 0.008[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Question a:

Exactly 16% of all applications were from minority members

This means [tex]p = 0.16[/tex], and thus, the mean is of [tex]\mu = p = 0.16[/tex]

b. Find the standard deviation of p.

2100 open positions, thus [tex]n = 2100[/tex].

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{0.16*0.84}{2100}}[/tex]

[tex]s = 0.008[/tex]

The standard deviation is of [tex]s = 0.008[/tex]

1. Rita is hiking along a trail that is 113.7 miles long. On the first day she hiked of 1 10 the distance of the trail. On the second day she hiked the same distance as the first day. How much of the trail does she have left to hike?

Answers

Answer:

She has 90.96 miles of the trail to hike.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the trail:

The length of the trail is of 113.7 miles.

On the first day she hiked of 1/10 the distance of the trail.

Thus:

[tex]\frac{1}{10(113.7) = 11.37[/tex]

On the first day she hiked 11.37 miles.

On the second day she hiked the same distance as the first day.

Also 11.37 miles on the second day, and thus, 2*11.37 = 22.74 miles on the first two days.

How much of the trail does she have left to hike?

113.7 - 22.74 = 90.96

She has 90.96 miles of the trail to hike.
