The lengths of pregnancy terms for a particular species of mammal are nearly normally distributed about a mean pregnancy length with a standard deviation of 17 days. About what percentage of births would be expected to occur within 51 days of the mean pregnancy​ length?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

About 99.7% of births would be expected to occur within 51 days of the mean pregnancy​ length

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Standard deviation = 17.

About what percentage of births would be expected to occur within 51 days of the mean pregnancy​ length?

51/17 = 3.

So, within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

About 99.7% of births would be expected to occur within 51 days of the mean pregnancy​ length

On the first day of school, each student is given $0.50 to attend. On day two, each student earns $1.00. on day 3, $2.00, etc. How much do students earn on the 9th day

Answers

Answer:

255.50

Step-by-step explanation:

If each day the number is doubled, then all you must do is keep on doubling to the ninth day and then add it all together

day 1 each student is given $0.50
day 2- $1.00
day 3- $2.00
this means every day the amount each student is given doubles from the day before.
day 4- $4.00
day 5- $8.00
day 6- $16.00
day 7- $32.00
day 8- $64.00
day 9- $128.00
so on the 9th day the students would earn $128.00

day 9- $128.00

When you cough,the radius of your trachea (windpipe) decreases,affecting the speed S of the air in the trachea. If r0 is the normal radius of the trachea, the relationship between the speed S of the air and the radius r of the trachea during a cough is given by a function of the form

S(r) = (r0 - r) ar^2

where a is positive constant. Find the radius r for which the speed of the air is greatest.

Answers

Answer: 2r(0)/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we are given one Important data or o or parameter in the question above and that is the function of the form which is given below(that is);

S(r) = (r0 - r) ar^2 -----------------------------(1).

We will now have to differentiate S(r) with respect to r, so, check below for the differentiation:

dS/dr = 2ar (r0 - r ) + ar^2 (-1 ) ---------;(2).

dS/dr = 2ar(r0) - 2ar^2 - ar^2.

dS/dr = - 3ar^2 + 2ar(r0) ------------------(3).

Note that dS/dr = 0.

Hence, - 3ar^2 + 2ar(r0) = 0.

Making ra the subject of the formula we have;

ra[ - 3r + 2r(0) ] = 0. -------------------------(4).

Hence, r = 0 and r = 2r(0) / 3.

If we take the second derivative of S(r) too, we will have;

d^2S/dr = -6ar + 2ar(0). -------------------(5).

+ 2ar(0) > 0 for r = 0; and r = 2r(0)/3 which is the greatest.

Answer:

[tex]r =\frac{2r_{0}}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to take the derivative of S(r) and equal to zero to maximize the function. In this conditions we will find the radius r for which the speed of the air is greatest.

Let's take the derivative:

[tex]\frac{dS}{dr}=a(2r(r_{0}-r)+r^{2}(-1))[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dS}{dr}=a(2r*r_{0}-2r^{2}-r^{2})[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dS}{dr}=a(2r*r_{0}-3r^{2})[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dS}{dr}=ar(2r_{0}-3r)[/tex]

Let's equal it to zero, to maximize S.

[tex]0=ar(2r_{0}-3r)[/tex]

We will have two solutions:

[tex]r = 0[/tex]

[tex]r =\frac{2r_{0}}{3}[/tex]

Therefore the value of r for which the speed of the air is greatest is [tex]r =\frac{2r_{0}}{3}[/tex].

The 95% confidence interval for the true proportion would be given by (0.570;0.630) .

And if we convert this into % we got (57.0%, 63.0%)

Step-by-step explanation:

The information given we have the following info given:

[tex] n = 1019[/tex] represent the sampel size

[tex] \hat p=0.6[/tex] represent the sample proportion of interest

The confidence level is 95%, our significance level would be given by [tex]\alpha=1-0.95=0.05[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2 =0.025[/tex]. And the critical value would be given by:

[tex]z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96[/tex]

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:  

[tex]\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}[/tex]

Replacing the info given we got:

[tex]0.60 - 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.60(1-0.60)}{1019}}=0.570[/tex]

[tex]0.60 + 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.60(1-0.60)}{1019}}=0.630[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the true proportion would be given by (0.570;0.630) .

Answers

Answer:

  1024 pi

Step-by-step explanation:

The area formula is ...

  A = πr^2

So, the radius is ...

  r = √(A/π)

For the given area, the radius of the cylinder is ...

  r = √(64π/π) = 8 . . . . cm

The height is said to be twice this value, so is 16 cm.

__

The volume of the cylinder is found from ...

  V = Bh

where B is the base area and h is the height. Our cylinder has a volume of ...

  V = (64π cm^2)(16 cm) = 1024π cm^3

Where:

r: is the radius

A: is the area

The radius is:

[tex]r = \sqrt{\frac{A}{2*\pi*58/360}} = \sqrt{\frac{36.07 cm^{2}}{2*\pi*58/360}} = 5.97 cm[/tex]

A circle with circumference 8 has an arc with a 288 central angle what is the length of the arc

Answers

Answer:3.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference=8

Φ=288

π=3.14

Radius=r

Circumference=2 x π x r

8=2 x 3.14 x r

8=6.28 x r

Divide both sides by 6.28

8/6.28=(6.28 x r) /6.28

1.3=r

r=1.3

Length of arc =Φ/360 x 2 x π x r

Length of arc =288/360 x 3.14 x 1.3

Length of arc =0.8 x 3.14 x 1.3
