Assume the random variable X is normally distributed, with mean = 54 and standard deviation o = 8. Find the 15th percentile.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

45.712

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the Zscore of the area of 15 percent of the distribution ; using a Z table or calculator ;

Zscore of 15% of the distribution is : - 1.036

Using the Zscore formula :

Zscore = (x - mean) / standard deviation

Where, x = score

-1.036 = (x - 54) / 8

Cross multiply

-1.036 * 8 = x - 54

-1.288 = x - 54

x = - 8.288 + 54

x = 45.712

Grasshoppers are distributed at random in a large field according to a Poisson process with parameter a 5 2 per square yard. How large should the radius R of a circular sampling region be taken so that the probability of finding at least one in the region equals 0.99?

Answers

In this question, the Poisson distribution is used.

Poisson distribution:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

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

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.

Parameter of 5.2 per square yard:

This means that [tex]\mu = 5.2r[/tex], in which r is the radius.

How large should the radius R of a circular sampling region be taken so that the probability of finding at least one in the region equals 0.99?

We want:

[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 0.99[/tex]

Thus:

[tex]P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.99 = 0.01[/tex]

We have that:

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

[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-5.2r}*(5.2r)^{0}}{(0)!} = e^{-5.2r}[/tex]

Then

[tex]e^{-5.2r} = 0.01[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-5.2r}} = \ln{0.01}[/tex]

[tex]-5.2r = \ln{0.01}[/tex]

[tex]r = -\frac{\ln{0.01}}{5.2}[/tex]

[tex]r = 0.89[/tex]

Thus, the radius should be of at least 0.89.

Which type of triangle will always have at least 1-fold reflectional symmetry?

right triangle
obtuse triangle
acute triangle
isosceles triangle

Answers

Answer:

D. isosceles triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Ed22

A triangle with at least 1-fold reflectional symmetry is isosceles triangle, option D is correct.

What is Triangle?

A triangle is a three-sided polygon that consists of three edges and three vertices.

An isosceles triangle will always have at least 1-fold reflectional symmetry.

This is because an isosceles triangle has two congruent sides and two congruent angles.

If we draw a perpendicular bisector of the base (the side that is not congruent), it will bisect the base and the angle opposite to the base.

This means that the triangle is symmetric with respect to this line of reflection, which is the line of symmetry.

Therefore, the correct answer is isosceles triangle.

Bob wants to replace a glass window in his restaurant. The window is in the shape of a square. Its side lengths are 6 feet. Suppose glass costs $7 for each square foot. How much will the glass cost to replace the window?

Answers

ANSWER: The glass window will cost $252.00 for window replacement.

EXPLANATION:

The area of a square is given by the formula:

s^2

where s is the side length.

If we were to replace the glass window, and it will cost $7.00 per square foot, the total price will be:

FIND AREA OF THE GLASS WINDOW:

6^2 = 36 square feet

$7 per square foot so:

36 x 7 = 252

Therefore it will cost $252.00 to replace the glass window.

A manufacturer knows that their items have a normally distributed lifespan, with a mean of 5.8 years, and
standard deviation of 1.7 years.
The 10% of items with the shortest lifespan will last less than how many years?
Round your answer to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

Less than 3.6 years.

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.

Mean of 5.8 years, and  standard deviation of 1.7 years.

This means that [tex]\mu = 5.8, \sigma = 1.7[/tex]

The 10% of items with the shortest lifespan will last less than how many years?

Less than the 10th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.1, so X when Z = -1.28.

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

[tex]-1.28 = \frac{X - 5.8}{1.7}[/tex]

[tex]X - 5.8 = -1.28*1.7[/tex]

[tex]X = 3.6[/tex]

Less than 3.6 years.

A potato chip manufacturer produces bags of potato chips that are supposed to have a net weight of 326 grams. Because the chips vary in size, it is difficult to fill the bags to the exact weight desired. However, the bags pass inspection so long as the standard deviation of their weights is no more than 3 grams. A quality control inspector wished to test the claim that one batch of bags has a standard deviation of more than 3 grams, and thus does not pass inspection. If a sample of 21 bags of potato chips is taken and the standard deviation is found to be 4.1 grams, does this evidence, at the 0.025 level of significance, support the claim that the bags should fail inspection

Answers

When we take data at work, we always do it over a period of time. To me, just one sample set does not show enough data to come to that conclusion. Also it is one batch of bags. I think you would need to have an average of data from different batches & samples to prove your data is accurate and support your claim.

  (i) x° = 70°, y° = 20°

  (ii) ∠BAC ≈ 50.2°

  (iii) 120

  (iv) 300

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) Angle x° is congruent with the one marked 70°, as they are "alternate interior angles" with respect to the parallel north-south lines and transversal AB.

  x = 70

The angle marked y° is the supplement to the one marked 160°.

  y = 20

__

(ii) The triangle interior angle at B is x° +y° = 70° +20° = 90°, so triangle ABC is a right triangle. With respect to angle BAC, side BA is adjacent, and side BC is opposite. Then ...

  tan(∠BAC) = BC/BA = 120/100 = 1.2

  ∠BAC = arctan(1.2) ≈ 50.2°

__

(iii) The bearing of C from A is the sum of the bearing of B from A and angle BAC.

  bearing of C = 70° +50.2° = 120.2°

The three-digit bearing of C from A is 120.

__

(iv) The bearing of A from C is 180 added to the bearing of C from A:

  120 +180 = 300

The three-digit bearing of A from C is 300.
