Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) Mean blood pressure for people in China, which has mean 128 and standard deviation 23.

b) 0.3821 = 38.21% probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 135 mmHg or more.

c) 0.714 = 71.4% probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 141 mmHg or less.

d) 0.0851 = 8.51% probability that a person in China has blood pressure between 120 and 125 mmHg.

e) Since |Z| = 0.3 < 2, it is not unusual for a person in China to have a blood pressure of 135 mmHg.

f) 90% of all people in China have a blood pressure of less than 157.44 mmHg.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

The mean blood pressure for people in China is 128 mmHg with a standard deviation of 23 mmHg

This means that [tex]\mu = 128, \sigma = 23[/tex]

a.) State the random variable.

Mean blood pressure for people in China, which has mean 128 and standard deviation 23.

b.) Find the probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 135 mmHg or more.

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 135, so:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{135 - 128}{23}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.3[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.3[/tex] has a p-value of 0.6179.

1 - 0.6179 = 0.3821

0.3821 = 38.21% probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 135 mmHg or more.

c.) Find the probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 141 mmHg or less.

This is the p-value of Z when X = 141, so:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{141 - 128}{23}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.565[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.565[/tex] has a p-value of 0.7140.

0.714 = 71.4% probability that a person in China has blood pressure of 141 mmHg or less.

d.) Find the probability that a person in China has blood pressure between 120 and 125 mmHg.

This is the p-value of Z when X = 125 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 120, so:

X = 125

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

[tex]Z = \frac{125 - 128}{23}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.13[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.13[/tex] has a p-value of 0.4483.

X = 120

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

[tex]Z = \frac{120 - 128}{23}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.35[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.35[/tex] has a p-value of 0.3632.

0.4483 - 0.3632 = 0.0851

0.0851 = 8.51% probability that a person in China has blood pressure between 120 and 125 mmHg.

e.) Is it unusual for a person in China to have a blood pressure of 135 mmHg? Why or why not?

From item b, when X = 135, Z = 0.3.

Since |Z| = 0.3 < 2, it is not unusual for a person in China to have a blood pressure of 135 mmHg.

f.) What blood pressure do 90% of all people in China have less than?

The 90th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.9, so X when Z = 1.28.

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

[tex]1.28 = \frac{X - 128}{23}[/tex]

[tex]X - 128 = 1.28*23[/tex]

[tex]X = 157.44[/tex]

90% of all people in China have a blood pressure of less than 157.44 mmHg.

Given:

Length of skid marked = 115 ft

Formula for skid mark = S = √21d

Where d = Length of skid marked

Find:

Speed of car

Computation:

Speed of car = √21d

Speed of car = √21(115)

Speed of car = √2,415

Speed of car = 49.1426

Speed of car = 49 mph (Approx.)

A rocket is launched at t = 0 seconds. Its height, in meters above sea-level, is given by the equation
h = -4.9t2 + 112t + 395.
At what time does the rocket hit the ground? The rocket hits the ground after how many seconds

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find out how long it takes for the rocket to hit the ground, we only need set that position equation equal to 0 (that's how high something is off the ground when it is sitting ON the ground) and factor to solve for t:

[tex]0=-4.9t^2+112t+395[/tex]

Factor that however you are factoring in class to get

t = -3.1 seconds and t = 25.9 seconds.

Since time can NEVER be negative, it takes the rocket approximately 26 seconds to hit the ground.

Rules for multiplying exponents

Answers

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

When multiplying exponents:

- Product of Powers: When the base of the exponents are the same, and the bases are being multiplied to each other, the exponents are added together.

Example: [tex]a^x + a^y = a^{x+y}[/tex]

- Different bases Same Exponents: When the bases of the exponents are different, but the exponents are the same, the bases multiply together (within a parenthesis) with the exponent on the parenthesis.

Example: [tex]a^x*b^x = (a*b)^x[/tex]

- Quotient of Powers: When the base of the exponents are the same, and they are being divided by each other, the exponents will subtract from each other.

Example: [tex]\frac{a^x}{a^y}= a^{x-y}[/tex]

- Power of a Power: When a base has an exponent, and that entire term has and exponent, the exponents multiply together.

Example: [tex](a^x)^y = a^{x*y}[/tex]

- Power of a Product: The opposite of Different bases Same Exponents. Distribute the exponent onto the different bases.

Example: [tex](ab)^x = a^x*b^x[/tex]

- Power of a Quotient: The opposite of Quotient of Powers. Distribute the exponent to the dividing bases.

Example: [tex](\frac{a}{b} )^x = \frac{a^x}{b^x}[/tex]

- Zero Power: Any number raised to the 0 power equals 1.

Example: [tex]a^0 = 1\\999999^0=1[/tex]

- Negative Exponent: Any number raised by a negative number goes to the denominator of a fraction (if not already in the denominator), and vise versa (goes to the numerator if not already in the numerator).

Example: [tex]a^-2 = \frac{1}{a^2} \\\\\frac{1}{b^-3} = b^3[/tex]

- Power of One: Any number raised to the power of 1 is the same number.

Example: [tex]a^1 = a\\\\999^1 = 999[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

D. x = -2y + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 8y = 16

Solve for x

Our objective here is to isolate x ( in other words we want to get x by itself ) using inverse operations.

So let's begin

4x + 8y = 16

First we want to get rid of 8y

Notice how 8y is being added to 4x

Well we can get rid of it by applying it's inverse operation. The opposite of addition is subtraction. So to get rid of 8y we would simply subtract 8y.

Important note! Whatever we do to one side we must do to the other

So we would subtract 8y from both sides

4x + 8y - 8y = 16 - 8y

The 8y on the left hand side cancels out and the 8y on the right side stays as it is as you can't subtract 8y from 16

We then have 4x = 16 - 8y

Next we want to get rid of 4 from 4x.

4x is the same as 4*x which is multiplication

The inverse of multiplication is division so to get rid of the 4 we divide both sides by 4

4x/4 = (16-8y)/4

4x/4 = x

16-8y/4 ( simply divide 16 by 4 and -8y by 4 )

16-8y/4 = 4 - 2y

We're left with x = 4 - 2y which can also be written as x = -2y + 4

what is the value of tan 0 in the unit circle below? (square root3/2,1/2)

√3/3

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain Tan θ ;

From trigonometry, tan θ = sin θ / cosθ

Given the paired value : (√3/2, 1/2)

The (cosine, sine ) pair ;

Tan θ = sin (1/2) / cos (√3/2)

Tan θ = (1/2 ÷ √3 / 2) = 1 / 2 * 2 / √3 = 2 / 2√3 = 1 / √3

A sample of 45 bottles of soft drink showed a variance of 1.1 in their contents. The process engineer wants to determine whether or not the standard deviation of the population is significantly different from 0.9 ounces. What is the value of the test statistic

Answers

Answer:

The value of the test statistic is 59.75.

Step-by-step explanation:

The test statistic for the population standard deviation is:

[tex]\chi^2 = \frac{n-1}{\sigma_0^2}s^2[/tex]

In which n is the sample size, [tex]\sigma_0[/tex] is the value tested and s is the sample standard deviation.

A sample of 45 bottles of soft drink showed a variance of 1.1 in their contents.

This means that [tex]n = 45, s^2 = 1.1[/tex]

The process engineer wants to determine whether or not the standard deviation of the population is significantly different from 0.9 ounces.

0.9 is the value tested, so [tex]\sigma_0 = 0.9, \sigma_0^2 = 0.81[/tex]

What is the value of the test statistic

[tex]\chi^2 = \frac{n-1}{\sigma_0^2}s^2[/tex]

[tex]\chi^2 = \frac{44}{0.81}1.1 = 59.75[/tex]

The value of the test statistic is 59.75.
