A coffee distributor needs to mix a(n) Costa Rican coffee blend that normally sells for $9.10 per pound with a Arabian Mocha coffee blend that normally sells for $13.10 per pound to create 100 pounds of a coffee that can sell for $11.58 per pound. How many pounds of each kind of coffee should they mix?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
38 pounds Costa Rican62 pounds Arabian MochaStep-by-step explanation:
Let 'a' represent the number of pounds of Arabian Mocha in the mix. Then the number of pounds of Costa Rican blend is (100-a). The cost of the mix will be ...
9.10(100 -a) +13.10(a) = 11.58(100)
4a = 248 . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, subtract 910
a = 62 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4
62 pounds of Arabian Mocha and 38 pounds of Costa Rican blend should be mixed.
The time to complete an exam in a statistics class is a normal random variable with a mean of 50 minutes and a standard deviation of 10 minutes. What is the probability, given a class size of 30 students, the average time to complete the test is less than 48.5 minutes
Answer:
0.2061 = 20.61% probability, given a class size of 30 students, the average time to complete the test is less than 48.5 minutes
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.
Mean of 50 minutes and a standard deviation of 10 minutes.
This means that [tex]\mu = 50, \sigma = 10[/tex]
Class size of 30 students
This means that [tex]n = 30, s = \frac{10}{\sqrt{30}}[/tex]
What is the probability, given a class size of 30 students, the average time to complete the test is less than 48.5 minutes.
This is the p-value of Z when X = 48.5. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{48.5 - 50}{\frac{10}{\sqrt{30}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.82[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.82[/tex] has a p-value of 0.2061
0.2061 = 20.61% probability, given a class size of 30 students, the average time to complete the test is less than 48.5 minutes

Consider random samples of size 1200 from a population with proportion 0.65 . Find the standard error of the distribution of sample proportions. Round your answer for the standard error to three decimal places.
Answer:
The standard error of the distribution of sample proportions is of 0.014.
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]
Consider random samples of size 1200 from a population with proportion 0.65 .
This means that [tex]n = 1200, p = 0.65[/tex]
Find the standard error of the distribution of sample proportions.
This is s. So
[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{0.65*0.35}{1200}} = 0.014[/tex]
The standard error of the distribution of sample proportions is of 0.014.
The volume of a pyramid is 240 cubic centimeters. The pyramid has a rectangular base with sides 6cm by 4cm. Find the altitude and lateral surface area of the pyramid if the pyramid has equal lateral edges

Casey and Malik can paint a room in 6 hours if they work together. If Malik were to work by himself, it would take him 4 hours longer than it would take Casey working by himself. How long would it take Casey to paint the room by himself if Malik calls in sick? Round to 2 decimal places.
Answer:
It would take 10 hours for Casey to paint the room by himself.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Casey and Malik can paint a room in 6 hours if they work together, and if Malik were to work by himself, it would take him 4 hours longer than it would take Casey working by himself, to determine how long would it take Casey to paint the room by himself if Malik calls in sick the following calculation must be performed:
6 x 2 = 12
12 x 2 = 24
(24 - 4) / 2 = 10
Therefore, it would take 10 hours for Casey to paint the room by himself.
Consider the probability that no less than 37 out of 295 cell phone calls will be disconnected. Choose the best description of the area under the normal curve that would be used to approximate binomial probability.
a. Area to the right of 36.5
b. Area to the right of 37.5
c. Area to the left of 36.5
d. Area to the left of 37.5
e. Area between 36.5 and 37.5
==========================================================
Explanation:
The phrasing "no less than" means the same as "at least".
Saying "at least 37" means 37 is the lowest we can go.
If x is the number of disconnected calls, then [tex]x \ge 37[/tex] and we want to find the probability of this happening (the max being 295).
We could use the binomial distribution to find the answer, but that would require adding 295-37+1 = 259 different values which could get tedious. So we could use the normal approximation to make things relatively straight forward.
Assuming this binomial meets the requirements of the normal approximation, then we'd look under the normal curve for the area to the right of 36.5; which is why the answer is choice A.
Why 36.5 and not 37? This has to do with the continuity correction factor when translating from a discrete distribution (binomial) to a continuous one (normal).
If we used 37, then we'd be missing out on the edge case. So we go a bit beyond 37 to capture 36.5 instead. It's like a fail safe to ensure we do account for that endpoint of 37. It's like adding a buffer or padding.
------------
Side notes:
Choice B would be the answer if we wanted to excluded 37 from the group, ie if we wanted to calculate [tex]P(x > 37)[/tex] instead of [tex]P(x \ge 37)[/tex]. So we're moving in the opposite direction of choice A to avoid that edge case. We go with "right" instead of "left" since this is what the inequality sign says.
ABCD is a square of side 12 cm. It is formed from two rectangles AEGD and
EBCG. H is a point on AD and F is a point on BC.
Find the area of EFGH.
Answer:72 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]
Solution 1:
Step 1: Find EF use Pythagorean theorem
[tex]EF^{2} = EB^{2} + BF^{2}[/tex]
[tex]EF^{2} = 6^{2} + 6^{2}[/tex]
EF = [tex]\sqrt{6^{2} + 6^{2} }[/tex] = 6[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] cm
Step 2: The area of EFGH = [tex]EF^{2}[/tex]= [tex](6\sqrt{2} )^{2}[/tex] = 72
Solution 2: See that the area of EFGH is equal [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] the area of ABCD
The area of ABCD = 12x12 = 144
Thus, the area of EFGH = 144: 2 = 72:)

An urn contains 2 small pink balls, 7 small purple balls, and 6 small white balls.
Three balls are selected, one after the other, without replacement.
Find the probability that all three balls are purple
Express your answer as a decimal, rounded to the nearest hundredth.
Answer:
The probability is P = 0.08
Step-by-step explanation:
We have:
2 pink balls
7 purple balls
6 white balls
So the total number of balls is just:
2 + 7 + 6 = 15
We want to find the probability of randomly picking 3 purple balls (without replacement).
For the first pick:
Here all the balls have the same probability of being drawn from the urn, so the probability of getting a purple one is equal to the quotient between the number of purple balls (7) and the total number of balls (15)
p₁ = 7/15
Second:
Same as before, notice that because the balls are not replaced, now there are 6 purple balls in the urn, and a total of 14 balls, so in this case the probability is:
p₂ = 6/14
third:
Same as before, this time there are 5 purple balls in the urn and 13 balls in total, so here the probability is:
p₃ = 5/13
The joint probability (the probability of these 3 events happening) is equal to the product between the individual probabilities, so we have:
P = p₁*p₂*p₃ = (7/15)*(6/14)*(5/13) = 0.08
posters n tees sold 486 items yesterday; one-third of these were t-shirts.how many t-shirts sold? how many posters?
Answer:
162 t-shirts, 324 posters
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming they only sold t-shirts and posters, you can find the amount of t-shirts sold by dividing 486 by 3, or multiplying it by 1/3. This equals 162. This is because one third were t-shirts. To find the rest you just subtract 162 from the total of 486, or multiply 162 by 2. (since you already know the amount of 1/3, 2/3 is double that.)

a. Construct a frequency distribution of these days and display it as a histogram.
Note: See the attached excel file for the frequency distribution table, and the attached photo for the histogram.
b. Determine the mean and the median of the dad and mark their locations on the histogram.
From the attached excel file, we have:
Total of F = 10
Total of FX = 167
Therefore, we have:
Mean = 167 / 10 = 16.7
Median is the middle number after arranged the data in ascending or descending order. Using the ascending order, we have:
13 13 14 14 15 15 16 20 21 26
Since 15 and 15 are in the middle, their average are the median which is calculated as follows:
Median = (15 + 15) / 2 = 15
Note: See the attached photo for the locations of Mean and Median on the histogram.

Step-by-step explanation:
P = perimeter
A = area
STEP 1: divide the shape into rectangles
Rectangle 1: 2ft*3ft
Rectangle 2: 2ft*5ft
STEP 2: Find the area of each rectangle
Equation for area of a rectangle = bh
Rectangle 1: b = 2, h = 3
Rectangle 2: b = 2, h = 5
(2 * 3) + (2 * 5)
6 + 10
16 ft^2
Now, we have to find the perimeter
STEP 1: Find the unknown side lengths.
To find the lengths of the sides not labeled, you have to use the lengths of the sides we already know.
The length of one parallel side is 5, and the length of another parallel side is 2. The length of the unknown side starts at the same place as the top of the side length that is 5, and ends at the top of the side length that is 2. This means that we have to subtract 2 from 5 in order to find the unknown side length.
STEP 2: Add up all the side lengths
P = 2 + 5 + 5 + 2 + 3 + 3
P = 20 ft
Don't forget to label your answers!!

A car took 6 minutes to travel between two stations that are 3 miles apart find the average speed of the car in mph
Answer: 30 mph is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
s = 3 miles
t = 6 minutes
so,
60 minute = 1 hour
1 minute = 1/60 hour
6 minutes = 1/60 * 6 = 0.1 hour
so
average speed = s/t
= 3/0.1 = 30 mph
