Police response time to an emergency call is the difference between the time the call is first received by the dispatcher and the time a patrol car radios that it has arrived at the scene. Over a long period of time, it has been determined that the police response time has a normal distribution with a mean of 9.6 minutes and a standard deviation of 2.3 minutes. For a randomly received emergency call, find the following probabilities. (For each answer, enter a number. Round your answers to four decimal places.)

a. between 5 and 10 min
b. less than 5 min
c. more than 10 min

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.5447

b) 0.0228

c) 0.4325

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.

Normal distribution with a mean of 9.6 minutes and a standard deviation of 2.3 minutes.

This means that [tex]\mu = 9.6, \sigma = 2.3[/tex]

a. between 5 and 10 min

This is the p-value of Z when X = 10 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 5. So

X = 10

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

[tex]Z = \frac{10 - 9.6}{2.3}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.17[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.17[/tex] has a p-value of 0.5675

X = 5

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

[tex]Z = \frac{5 - 9.6}{2.3}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0228

0.5675 - 0.0228 = 0.5447 probability that a randomly received emergency call is between 5 and 10 minutes.

b. less than 5 min

p-value of Z when X = 5, which from item a), is 0.0228, so 0.0228 probability that a randomly received emergency call is of less than 5 minutes.

c. more than 10 min

1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 10, which, from item a), is of 0.5675.

1 - 0.5675 = 0.4325

0.4325 probability that a randomly received emergency call is of more than 10 minutes.

Angles measuring 8x – 3 and 7x + 18 are supplementary. Find the measure of each angle. (5 points)​

Answers

Answer:

The measures of the angles are 85 and 95 degrees each.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two angles are supplementary when they add up to 180 degrees.

Therefore, set up an equation and solve for the variable x in the first place.

(8x-3)+(7x+18)=180

8x-3+7x+18=180

8x+7x-3+18=180

15x-3+18=180

15x+15=180

15x=165

x=165/15

x=11

Angle 8x-3=8(11)-3=88-3=85.

Angle 7x+18=7(11)+18=77+18=95.

Answer:

85⁰ and 95⁰

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angle add up to 180⁰

8x-3+7x+18=180

8x+7x-3+18=180

15x+15=180

15x=180-15

15x=165

15x/15=165/15

x=165/15

x=11⁰

measure of first angle=8(11⁰)-3

=88⁰-3

=85⁰

measure of second angle=7(11⁰)+18

=77⁰+18

As a manager of a company you are given 2 estimates for the annual firm’s profits: 1) Estimate A predicting that the mean profit would be between $1mil and $1.5 mil which is a 95% confidence interval; 2) Estimate B that the annual profits are between $1.2 mil and $1.4 mil, a 93% confidence interval. Which of the two estimates is more accurate and why?

Answers

Answer and Explanation:

A confidence interval determines the probability that a range of values(e.g-given a large data set )has the true parameter. Example, to find mean of height of 30+ men, our confidence interval will say that there is 96% confidence that the mean height of 30+ men is between 5ft and 6ft. While confidence intervals, narrow or broad with high or low significance levels may not be akin to accuracy, it will only help to determine the precision or otherwise of our estimate. For example, if confidence interval is narrow as in second option and confidence level is lower, it only narrows down our options to ascertain the true mean or parameter we are investigating and doesn't exactly affect accuracy since we are still not 100% confident our true mean lies in this interval.

Compare the rules of two games:

Game A: Two six-sided dice are thrown.The numbers on the dice determine which player gets a point.Player 1 gets a point if the product of the numbers on the dice is even.Player 2 gets a point if the product is odd.

Game B: Two six - sided dice are thrown.The numbers on the dice determine which player gets a point.Player 1 gets a point if the sum of the numbers on the dice is even.Player 2 gets a point if the sum is odd.

Which statement accurately describes whether these games are fair?

A: Both Game A and Game B are fair.

B: Game A is not fair,and Game B is fair.

C: Neither Game A nor Game B is fair.

D: Game A is fair,and Game B is not fair.


Answers

Answer: Choice B

Game A is not fair, and game B is fair.

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

We'll start with game A.

The sides of the dice are {1,2,3,4,5,6}

There are 6*6 = 36 ways to roll two dice.

If we roll two odd numbers, say 3 and 5, the product is odd because 3*5 = 15.

If any of the numbers are even, then the product is even. Eg: 4*5 = 20 or 2*6 = 12.

To be an even number, 2 must be a factor.

So you can probably see that it's more likely to get an even number product considering that in order to get an odd product, both values must be odd (which narrows the selection pool). We can say that game A is not fair. It favors player 1 more. If you're sure about this, then I recommend looking at a multiplication table but only focus on the first 6 rows and 6 columns. Ignore the row and column that has 0s in it.

------------------------------

Now onto game B

The rules are nearly the same, except now instead of multiplying the dice values, we add them up.

We still have 6*6 = 36 outcomes.

Here are some handy rules we'll take into account

even+even = eveneven+odd = oddodd+odd = even

If the first dice rolls to '1', then there are 3 ways to get an even number (rolling either 1,3,or 5 on the second dice) and there are 3 ways to get an odd number (rolling either 2,4,or 6 on the second dice). We can see that there are the same number of ways to get an even sum or an odd sum. Apply this in general to any result that the first dice shows, and this basically leads to the conclusion that half of the 36 sums are even, and the other half are odd. We have a fair game now. Refer to a sum of dice chart if you need more convincing.

Answer:

Game A is not fair, and game B is fair.

The Boffo Product Company sells a waffle iron on which they have done product testing. They have determined that the amount of time the product will last can be described by a normal distribution. In particular, the average waffle iron lasts for 12 years and one standard deviation is 8 months. How long should they warranty the product for if they want no more than 6.7% of the waffle irons to fail within that time

Answers

Answer:

They should warranty the product for 7 years if they want no more than 6.7% of the waffle irons to fail within that time.

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 average waffle iron lasts for 12 years and one standard deviation is 8 months.

Measuring the time in months, we have that [tex]\mu = 12*8 = 96[/tex] and [tex]\sigma = 8[/tex]

How long should they warranty the product for if they want no more than 6.7% of the waffle irons to fail within that time?

This is X when Z has a p-value of 0.067, so X when Z = -1.5. Then

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

[tex]-1.5 = \frac{X - 96}{8}[/tex]

[tex]X - 96 = -1.5*8[/tex]

[tex]X = 84[/tex]

84 months = 7 years.

They should warranty the product for 7 years if they want no more than 6.7% of the waffle irons to fail within that time.

Problem 1

It's not clear if the person deposits at the start of the quarter, or at the end of the quarter. I'm going to assume they deposit at the end of the quarter. This means we go with an ordinary future value of annuity.

The formula we use is

F = P*( (1+i)^n - 1)/i

where,

F = future value of the accountP = payment per periodi = interest rate per periodn = number of periods

In this case,

F = 300,000P = unknown, what we want to solve fori = 0.08/4 = 0.02n = 25*4 = 100 quarters (equivalent to 25 years)

So,

F = P*( (1+i)^n - 1)/i

300,000 = P*( (1+0.02)^100 - 1)/0.02

300,000 = P*(312.232305912618)

P = (300,000)/(312.232305912618)

P = 960.823061288088

P = 960.82

You must deposit $960.82 per quarter

If you deposit that amount of money per quarter, for 100 quarters, then you deposited a total of 960.82*100 = 96,082 dollars in total.

The amount of interest is 300,000 - 96,082 = 203,918 dollars

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

Problem 2

We use the same formula from problem 1. This time we know the periodic payment ($250 per month) and we want to find the value of F

More specifically, we have this given info:

P = 250i = 0.072/12 = 0.006n = 30*12 = 360 months (aka 30 years)

So,

F = P*( (1+i)^n - 1)/i

F = 250*( (1+0.006)^360 - 1)/0.006

F = 317,306.360545277

F = 317,306.36

If you deposit $250 per month, for 360 months, then you'll have $317,306.36 in the account.

This includes interest. The total amount deposited, without interest involved, is 250*360 = 90,000 dollars.

Therefore, the amount of interest earned is 317,306.36 - 90,000 = 227,306.36 dollars.

Write equation could use to find number of centimeters in 1 inch.

Answers

Answer:

0.393701 cm = 1 in

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the number of centimeters in 1 inch.

First, the two conversion rates we need to use:

1m = 100 cm

1m = 39.3701 in

From these two equations, we can conclude that:

100cm = 1m = 39.3701 in

100cm = 39.3701 in

Because we want to find the total number of centimeters in 1 inch, we need to divide both sides by 39.3701

We will get:

(100cm)/39.3701 = (39.3701 in)/39.3701

0.393701 cm = 1 in

This equation gives us the number of centimeters in one inch.

What is sale tax?

A sales tax is a tax paid to a governing body for the sales of certain goods and services. Usually laws allow the seller to collect funds for the tax from the consumer at the point of purchase.

Given that, Christine paid $633.68 for a handbag the sales tax in her state is 6.5%

Let the cost of the handbag before sales tax be x,

Therefore,

x + 6.5% of x = 633.68

x + 6.5 / 100 × x = 633.68

x(1 + 6.5 / 100) = 633.68

x(106.5 / 100) = 633.68

x = 633.68 × 100 / 106.5

x = 595

Hence, the price of the handbag before the sales tax was added is $595
