Matthew participates in a study that is looking at how confident students at SUNY Albany are. The mean score on the scale is 50. The distribution has a standard deviation of 10 and is normally distributed. Matthew scores a 65. What percentage of people could be expected to score the same as Matthew or higher on this scale?
a) 93.32%
b) 6.68%
c) 0.07%
d) 43.32%

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

b) 6.68%

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.

The mean score on the scale is 50. The distribution has a standard deviation of 10.

This means that [tex]\mu = 50, \sigma = 10[/tex]

Matthew scores a 65. What percentage of people could be expected to score the same as Matthew or higher on this scale?

The proportion is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 65. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{65 - 50}{10}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9332.

1 - 0.9332 = 0.0668

0.0668*100% = 6.68%

So the correct answer is given by option b.

What is a word problem?

A word problem is a verbal description of a problem situation. It consists of few sentences describing a 'real-life' scenario where a problem needs to be solved by way of a mathematical calculation.

For the given situation,

The expressions are [tex]4x-x+5 , 8-3x-3[/tex]

If the expressions are equivalent then,

⇒ [tex]4x-x+5 = 8-3x-3[/tex]

⇒ [tex]3x+5=-3x+5[/tex]

In both the sides the x has different values.

So, Both expressions should be evaluated with two different values. If for each substituted value, the final values of the expressions are the same, then the two expressions must be equivalent.

Hence we can conclude that option (D) both expressions should be evaluated with two different values. If for each substituted value, the final values of the expressions are the same, then the two expressions must be equivalent is the correct answer.

The diagram shows a wooden prism of height 5cm.
The cross section of the prism is a sector of a circle with sector angle 25º.
The radius of the sector is 15 cm.
Calculate the total surface area of the prism.

Answers

Answer:

280.8997

Step-by-step explanation:

cross section = 2*15*5+2*(25/360)*15*15*pi+5*(25/360)*2*pi*15

= 280.8997

Total surface area of prism is 280.890cm²

What is surface area?

A solid object's surface area is a measurement of the overall space that the object's surface takes up, and it is always expressed in square units.

The term "surface area" is sometimes used to refer to "total surface area".

Find the sector angle in radians

α = 25× (π/180)

α = (25π)/(180) rad

Find the area of the prism:

A = 2×15×5 + 15×15×α + 5×15×α

A = 150 + 15×15×(25π)/(180) + 5×15×(25π)/(180)

A = 280.890cm²

A sample of 4 children was drawn from a population of rural Indian children aged 12 to 60 months. The sample mean of mid-upper arm circumference was 150 mm with a standard deviation of 6.73. What is a 95% confidence interval for the mean of mid-upper arm circumference based on your sample

Answers

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval for the mean of mid-upper arm circumference based on your sample is between 139.29 mm and 160.71 mm.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom,which is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 4 - 1 = 3

90% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 3 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 3.1824

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 3.1824\frac{6.73}{\sqrt{4}} = 10.71[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 150 - 10.71 = 139.29 mm

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 150 + 10.71 = 160.71 mm

The 95% confidence interval for the mean of mid-upper arm circumference based on your sample is between 139.29 mm and 160.71 mm.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It is probably easier to find y first. Opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral are supplementary, so ...

  y = 180° -85° = 95°

The measure of an arc is double the measure of the inscribed angle subtending it. The arc subtended by angle y is ...

  90° +x = 2y

  x = 190° -90° = 100°

Additional comment

The rule cited above regarding opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral comes from the theorem regarding inscribed angles. In the given diagram, the diagonal from the bottom vertex to the top one is a chord that divides the circle into two arcs. Their sum is 360°. The inscribed angle theorem tells you ...

  y + 85° = 180° . . . . . . . divide by 2; opposite angles are supplementary

The system of circles touching Y axis at origin will have centres on X axis. Let (a,0) be the centre of a circle. Then the radius of the circle should be a units, since the circle should touch Y axis at origin.

Equation of a circle with centre at (a,0) and radius a

(x─a)²+(y─0)²=a²

That is,

x²+y²─2ax=0 ─────► (1)

The above equation represents the family of circles touching Y axis at origin. Here 'a' is an arbitrary constant.

In order to find the differential equation of system of circles touching Y axis at origin, eliminate the the arbitrary constant from equation(1)

Differentiating equation(1) with respect to x,

2x+2ydy/dx─2a=0

or

2a=2(x+ydy/dx)

Replacing '2a' of equation(1) with the above expression, you get

x²+y²─2(x+ydy/dx)(x)=0

That is,

─x²+y²─2xydy/dx=0

or

x²─y²+2xydy/dx=0

Assuming you want x to approach negative infinity, you have the correct answer. It is choice A.

=====================================================

Explanation:

The root x = -2 leads to the factor x+2. That means the answer is between A and B.

As x approaches negative infinity, i.e. as we move to the left, we're going down the red curve and y = f(x) is going to approach negative infinity as well.

In terms of symbols, we'd write [tex]x \to -\infty, \ f(x) \to -\infty[/tex]

Informally, we could say "it falls to the left" as a way to describe this left end behavior.

What is the slope of a roof on a house that has a vertical height of 2.4 feet from the ceiling of the top floor to the top of the pitch and a length of 8.2 feet from the center of the edge of the house?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It is unclear from the phrasing what dimension 8.2 ft represents.

If 8.2 ft is the direct distance from the edge of the roof to the top of the pitch, then the horizontal distance from the edge to the top is √(8.2²-2.4²) ≅ 7.84 ft, and the slope is 2.4/7.84 ≅ 0.31

If 8.2 ft is the horizontal distance from the edge of the root to the top of the pitch, then the slope is 2.4/8.2 ≅ 0.29

The slope of a roof on a house is 0.2926 and the angle of elevation is 16.31°.

What is slope of a line?

The slope or gradient of a line is a number that describes both the direction X and Y and the steepness of the line. It is the ratio of the vertical change to the horizontal change between any two distinct points on a line.

For the given situation,

The diagram below shows the house with the roof.

The vertical height of roof on a house, rise = 2.4 feet

The horizontal length of a roof on a house, run = 8.2 feet

The slope of a roof can be found as

[tex]Slope = \frac{rise}{run}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]slope = (\frac{2.4}{8.2} )[/tex]

⇒ [tex]slope = 0.2926[/tex]

The angle of the slope of a roof can be found as

[tex]tan \alpha =\frac{vertical height}{horizontal length}[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\alpha =tan^{-1} (\frac{2.4}{8.2} )[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\alpha =tan^{-1} (0.2926)[/tex]

⇒ [tex]\alpha =16.31[/tex]

Hence we can conclude that the slope of a roof on a house is 0.2926 and the angle of elevation is 16.31°.
