IQ tests are scaled so that the mean score in a largepopulation should be μ =100. We suspect that the very-low-birth-weight population has mean score less than100. Infants weiging less than 1500 grams at birth are classed as "very low birth weight". Low birth weight carriesmany risks. One study followed 113 male infants with very low birth weight to adulthood. At age 20, the mean IQ score for these men was (x bar=87.6.) Iq scores vary Normally with standard deviation σ=15. Give a 95% confidence interval for the mean IQ score at age 20 for allvery-low-birth-weight males. Use the four-step process for confidence interval.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval is  [tex]84.83< \mu < 90.37[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  sample size is  [tex]n = 113[/tex]

     The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 87.6[/tex]  

      The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 15[/tex]

     

Given that the confidence level is  95% then the level of significance is mathematically represented as

            [tex]\alpha = 100 - 95[/tex]

             [tex]\alpha = 5\%[/tex]

             [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Next we obtain the critical value of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table, the value  is  

              [tex]Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically evaluated as

              [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{ \sigma}{ \sqrt{n} }[/tex]

=>          [tex]E = 1.96 * \frac{ 15}{ \sqrt{113} }[/tex]

=>          [tex]E = 2.77[/tex]

The  95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as

          [tex]\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E[/tex]

substituting values

        [tex]87.6 - 2.77< \mu < 87.6 + 2.77[/tex]

        [tex]84.83< \mu < 90.37[/tex]

A paint machine dispenses dye into paint cans to create different shades of paint. The amount of dye dispensed into a can is known to have a normal distribution with a mean of 5 milliliters (ml) and a standard deviation of 0.4 ml. Answer the following questions based on this information. Find the dye amount that represents the 9th percentile of the distribution.

Answers

Answer:

4.464 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

mean (μ) = 5 mm, standard deviation (σ) = 0.4 ml

The z score is a score in statistics used to determine by how many standard deviation the raw score is above or below the mean. If the z score is positive then the raw score is above the mean and if the z score is negative then the raw score is below the mean It is given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

From the normal distribution table, the 9th percentile (0.09) corresponds to a z score of -1.34

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\-1.34=\frac{x-5}{0.4}\\\\x-5=-0.536\\\\x=5-0.536\\\\x=4.464[/tex]

The dye amount that represents the 9th percentile of the distribution is 4.464 ml

A group of fitness club members lose a combined total of 28 kilograms in 1 week. There are approximately 2.2 pounds in 1 kilogram. Assuming the weight loss happened at a constant rate, about how many pounds did the group lose each day?

Answers

Answer:

8.8 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Combined weight loss which occurred within a week = 28 kg

Number of days in a week = 7 days

1 kilogram (kg) = 2.2 pounds

Combined weight loss in pounds that occurs within a week:

Weight loss in kg × 2.2

28kg * 2.2 = 61.6 pounds

Assume weight loss occurred at a constant rate :

Weight lost by the group per day :

(Total weight loss / number of days in a week)

(61.6 pounds / 7)

= 8.8 pounds daily

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent the two fractions. Then we are given ...

  x + y = 1/2

  x + 5y = 2

Subtracting the first equation from the second, we get ...

  (x +5y) -(x +y) = (2) -(1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The square of the length of a side can be found from the distance formula:

  d^2 = (x2-x1)^2 +(y2-y1)^2

The square of the length of WX is ...

  WX^2 = (-3-(-10))^2 +(-1-4)^2 = 49+25 = 74

The square of the length of XY is ...

  XY^2 = (-5-(-3))^2 +(11-(-1))^2 = 4 +144 = 148

The square of the length of YW is ...

  YW^2 = (-10-(-5))^2 +(4 -11)^2 = 25 +49 = 74

The sum of the squares of the short sides is equal to the square of the long side, so this is a right triangle. The squares of the short sides are equal, so this is an isosceles right triangle.

A passenger train traveled 180 miles in the same amount of time it took a freight train to travel 120 miles. The rate of the freight train was 15 miles per hour slower than the rate of the passenger train. Find the rate of the passenger train.

Answers

Answer:

The passenger train is moving at 45 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of time it took the two trains to travel the distance = t.

Since the two trains traveled the distance at the same time,

Rate of the passenger train =[tex]\frac{180}{t}[/tex]

Rate of the freight train = [tex]\frac{120}{t}[/tex]

Where t is in hours.

From the problem, we can see that the rate of the freight train was 15 miles per hour slower than the rate of the passenger train. Mathematically, we can represent this as

[tex]\frac{120}{t}= \frac{180}{t}-15[/tex]

from the above equation, we can now get our value for t  as

[tex]\frac{120-180}{t}=-15\\\frac{-60}{t}=-15\\t=4 hours[/tex]

We have our time of travel for the two trains as 4 hours.

The rate of the passenger train can now be calculated by 180/4 = 45 miles per hour

Assume that a randomly selected subject is given a bone density test. Those test scores are normally distributed with a mean of 0 and a standard deviation of 1. Find the probability that a given score is less than 1.99 and draw a sketch of the region.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this probability, we shall be using the z-score route

Mathematically ;

z-score = (x -mean)/SD

From the question, x = 1.99, mean = 0 and SD = 1

So z = (1.99-0)/1 = 1.99

So the probability we want to calculate is;

P(z<1.99)

This value can be obtained from the standard normal distribution table.

P(z < 1.99) = 0.9767

The sketch of the region is as shown as in the attachment.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the straight line to be fitted to the data , be Y = a+b X where a and b are to be evaluated. The normal equations fro determining a and b are

∑Y = na +b ∑X

∑XY = a∑X + b∑X²

We now calculate ∑X, ∑Y , ∑X², and ∑XY

21                 15                 64           115  

Thus the normal equation becomes

                                                 5a + 21b =15

                                                21a +115b = 64

Solving these two equations simultaneously we get

                                                105 a + 441b = 315

                                                105a + 575b = 320

                                                            134b= 5

b= 0.037 , a= 2.843

Hence the equation for the required straight line is

                    Y = 2.843+ 0.037 X

Where

R = Red

B = Blue

Y = Yellow

Total number of Possible outcomes where EXACTLY one of the colours that appears face up is red = 12

The probability of the event that exactly one of the colors that appears face up is red = Number of possible outcomes/ Total number of outcomes

A cylindrical grain silo, with a flat top, is 30 feet tall and has a radius of 12 feet. It is full to the top with shelled corn. If the density of shelled corn averages 45 pounds/cubic foot, what does the corn in the silo weigh to the nearest pound

Answers

Answer:

610805 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of grain in the silo will be calculated as equal to the volume of the cylinder formed by the silo

Height of the silo [tex]l[/tex] = 30 ft

radius of the silo r = 12 ft

volume of a cylinder = [tex]\pi r^{2} l[/tex]

substituting, we have

V = 3.142 x [tex]12^{2}[/tex] x 30 = 13573.44 cubic feet

We know that density ρ = weight/volume

density of the grains in the silo = 45 pound/cubic feet

therefore,

weight of grains = density x volume

weight of grains = 45 x 13573.44 = 610804.8 ≅ 610805 pounds
