Answer:
a) Their average weight is of 187 pounds.
b) 0.4562 = 45.62% probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded.
c) 0.002 = 0.2% probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded
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.
a. If 44 people are on the elevator, and their total weight is 8228 pounds, what is their average weight?
8228/44 = 187
Their average weight is of 187 pounds.
b. If a random sample of 44 adult men ride the elevator, what is the probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded?
For men, we have that [tex]\mu = 186, \sigma = 60[/tex]
Sample of 44 means that [tex]n = 44, s = \frac{60}{\sqrt{44}}[/tex]
This probability is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 187. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{187 - 186}{\frac{60}{\sqrt{44}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.11[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.11[/tex] has a p-value of 0.5438.
1 - 0.5438 = 0.4562
0.4562 = 45.62% probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded.
c. If a random sample of 44 adult women ride the elevator, what is the probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded?
For women, we have that [tex]\mu = 157, \sigma = 69[/tex]
Sample of 44 means that [tex]n = 44, s = \frac{69}{\sqrt{44}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{187 - 157}{\frac{69}{\sqrt{44}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.88[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.88[/tex] has a p-value of 0.998.
1 - 0.998 = 0.002.
0.002 = 0.2% probability that the maximum safe weight will be exceeded

Answer:
(b) f(x) = (-x)^(1/2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The square root is only defined for argument values that are non-negative. Hence the domain of ...
f(x) = (-x)^(1/2)
is all values of x less than or equal to zero. This is not "all values of x."

Help with solving this Functions problem
Answer:
See answers below
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following functions:
r(x) = x - 6
s(x) = 2x²
r(s(x)) = r(2x²)
Replacing x with 2x² in r(x) will give;
r(2x²) = 2x² - 6
r(s(x)) = 2x² - 6
(r-s)(x) = r(x) - s(x)
(r-s)(x) = x - 6 - 2x²
Rearrange
(r-s)(x) = - 2x²+x-6
(r+s)(x) = r(x) + s(x)
(r-s)(x) = x - 6 + 2x²
Rearrange
(r-s)(x) = 2x²+x-6

Open the graphing tool one last time. Compare the graphs of y=log (x-k) and y=log x+k in relation to their domain, range, and asymptotes. Describe what you see.
Answer:
sorry I don't know the answer
Answer:
For the equation y=log(x-k), the domain depends on the value of K. Sliding K moves the left bound of the domain interval. The range and the right end behavior stay the same. For the equation y=log x+k, the domain is fixed, starting at an x-value of 0. The vertical asymptote is also fixed. The range of the equation depends on K.

The administration conducted a survey to determine the proportion of students who ride a bike to campus. Of the 123 students surveyed 5 ride a bike to campus. Which of the following is a reason the administration should not calculate a confidence interval to estimate the proportion of all students who ride a bike to campus. Which of the following is a reason the administration should not calculate a confidence interval to estimate the proportion of all students who ride a bike to campus? Check all that apply.
a. The sample needs to be random but we don’t know if it is.
b. The actual count of bike riders is too small.
c. The actual count of those who do not ride a bike to campus is too small.
d. n*^p is not greater than 10.
e. n*(1−^p)is not greater than 10.
Answer:
b. The actual count of bike riders is too small.
d. n*p is not greater than 10.
Step-by-step explanation:
Confidence interval for a proportion:
To be possible to build a confidence interval for a proportion, the sample needs to have at least 10 successes, that is, [tex]np \geq 10[/tex] and at least 10 failures, that is, [tex]n(1-p) \geq 10[/tex]
Of the 123 students surveyed 5 ride a bike to campus.
Less than 10 successes, that is:
The actual count of bike riders is too small, or [tex]np < 10[/tex], and thus, options b and d are correct.

Find the tangent line equations for the given functions at the given point(s): f(x) = tan x + 9 sin x at (π, 0)
Answer:
[tex]{ \bf{f(x) = \tan x + 9 \sin x }}[/tex]
For gradient, differentiate f(x):
[tex]{ \tt{ \frac{dy}{dx} = { \sec }^{2}x + 9 \cos x }}[/tex]
Substitute for x as π:
[tex]{ \tt{gradient = { \sec }^{2} \pi + 9 \cos(\pi ) }} \\ { \tt{gradient = - 8 }}[/tex]
Gradient of tangent = -8
[tex]{ \bf{y =mx + b }} \\ { \tt{0 = ( - 8\pi) + b}} \\ { \tt{b = 8\pi}} \\ y - intercept = 8\pi[/tex]
Equation of tangent:
[tex]{ \boxed{ \bf{y = - 8x + 8\pi}}}[/tex]
he following chart reports the number of cell phones sold at a big-box retail store for the last 26 days. a. What are the maximum and the minimum numbers of cell phones sold in a day? b. Using the median, what is the typical number of cell phones sold?
Answer:
Maximum = 19
Minimum = 4
Median = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The maximum number of phone sold per day is the value to the right of the horizontal axis as the values are arranged in ascending order ; Hence, the maximum number of phones sold per day is 19
Also, the minimum number of phones sold per day is the value to the left of the plot, Hence, minimum number of phones sold per day is 14.
The Median value : 4, 9, 14, 19
The median = 1/2(n+1)th term
1/2(5)th term = 2.5 th term
Median (9 + 14) /2 = 13 /2 = 11.5 = 12 phones

A recipe calls for 2 1/2 tablespoons of oil and 3/4 tablespoons of vinegar. What is the ratio of oil to vinegar in this recipe?
Answer:
10:3
Step-by-step explanation:
Make 2 1/2 an improper fraction, you will get 5/2. You dont have to do anything to the 3/4.
For you to find the ratio of an fraction, you have to take the numerator but the denominator has to be the same.
So make 5/2 to a 10/4.
Take the numerator 10 & 3.
Your answer will be 10:3

Coefficient and degree of the polynomial
Answer:
The leading coefficient is -8 as it is a mix of x and cardinal, if it was x alone then it wouldn't be the coefficient, we would use the next number shown.
If it was just a number and no x then it would still be the coefficient.

Lakisha wants to buy some bitcoins. The exchange rate is $1 USD to 0.004 bitcoin. How many bitcoins can she buy with $400?
Answer:
1.6 Bitcoins
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
We have the rate as
$1 USD to 0.004
Hence $400 will buy x bitcoins
Cross multiply to find the value of x
1*x= 400*0.004
x=1.6
Hence $400 will get you 1.6 Bitcoins
a triangle has sides of 6 m 8 m and 11 m is it a right-angled triangle?
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
If we use the Pythagorean theorem, we can find if it is a right triangle. To do that, set up an equation.
[tex]6^{2}+8^{2}=c^2[/tex]
If the triangle is a right triangle, c would equal 11
Solve.
[tex]36+64=100[/tex]
Then find the square root of 100.
The square root of 100 is 10, not 11.
So this is not a right triangle.
I hope this helps!
