Answer:
0.1003 = 10.03% probability that a simple random sample of size n= 10 results in a sample mean greater than 40 inches.
Gestation periods:
1) 0.3539 = 35.39% probability a randomly selected pregnancy lasts less than 260 days.
2) 0.0465 = 4.65% probability that a random sample of 20 pregnancies has a mean gestation period of 260 days or less.
3) 0.004 = 0.4% probability that a random sample of 50 pregnancies has a mean gestation period of 260 days or less.
4) 0.9844 = 98.44% probability a random sample of size 15 will have a mean gestation period within 10 days of the mean.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve these questions, 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
For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.
The height, X, of all 3-year-old females is approximately normally distributed with mean 38.72 inches and standard deviation 3.17 inches.
This means that [tex]\mu = 38.72, \sigma = 3.17[/tex]
Sample of 10:
This means that [tex]n = 10, s = \frac{3.17}{\sqrt{10}}[/tex]
Compute the probability that a simple random sample of size n= 10 results in a sample mean greater than 40 inches.
This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 40. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{40 - 38.72}{\frac{3.17}{\sqrt{10}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.28[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.28[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8997
1 - 0.8997 = 0.1003
0.1003 = 10.03% probability that a simple random sample of size n= 10 results in a sample mean greater than 40 inches.
Gestation periods:
[tex]\mu = 266, \sigma = 16[/tex]
1. What is the probability a randomly selected pregnancy lasts less than 260 days?
This is the p-value of Z when X = 260. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{260 - 266}{16}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.375[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.375[/tex] has a p-value of 0.3539.
0.3539 = 35.39% probability a randomly selected pregnancy lasts less than 260 days.
2. What is the probability that a random sample of 20 pregnancies has a mean gestation period of 260 days or less?
Now [tex]n = 20[/tex], so:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{260 - 266}{\frac{16}{\sqrt{20}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.68[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1.68[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0465.
0.0465 = 4.65% probability that a random sample of 20 pregnancies has a mean gestation period of 260 days or less.
3. What is the probability that a random sample of 50 pregnancies has a mean gestation period of 260 days or less?
Now [tex]n = 50[/tex], so:
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{260 - 266}{\frac{16}{\sqrt{50}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.65[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.65[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0040.
0.004 = 0.4% probability that a random sample of 50 pregnancies has a mean gestation period of 260 days or less.
4. What is the probability a random sample of size 15 will have a mean gestation period within 10 days of the mean?
Sample of size 15 means that [tex]n = 15[/tex]. This probability is the p-value of Z when X = 276 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 256.
X = 276
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{276 - 266}{\frac{16}{\sqrt{15}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.42[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2.42[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9922.
X = 256
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{256 - 266}{\frac{16}{\sqrt{15}}}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.42[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2.42[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0078.
0.9922 - 0.0078 = 0.9844
0.9844 = 98.44% probability a random sample of size 15 will have a mean gestation period within 10 days of the mean.

How long will it take the same crew to clear the entire plot of 2 1/2 acres?
Answer:
It will take 15 days for the same crew to clear the entire plot of 2 1/2 acres.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a crew clears brush from 1/3 acre of land in 2 days, to determine how long will it take the same crew to clear the entire plot of 2 1/2 acres, the following calculation must be performed:
1/3 = 0.333
1/2 = 0.5
0.333 = 2
2.5 = X
2.5 x 2 / 0.333 = X
15 = X
Therefore, it will take 15 days for the same crew to clear the entire plot of 2 1/2 acres.

How much did Sarah have in her saving account after 2 years?
£
Use the formula:
A=P(1+r100)n
Where;
A = the amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest
P = the principal sum (the initial amount borrowed or invested)
r = the rate of interest (percentage)
n = the number of years the amount is borrowed or invested
Answer:
£2120.27
Step-by-step explanation:
A = P (1 + r100)
A = 2000 (1+ 0.03/365)^365(2)
A = 2000 ( 1.00008)^730
A = 2000 (1.060)
A = £2120.27

Time Remaining 59 minutes 49 seconds00:59:49 PrintItem 1 Time Remaining 59 minutes 49 seconds00:59:49 At the end of Year 2, retained earnings for the Baker Company was $2,950. Revenue earned by the company in Year 2 was $3,200, expenses paid during the period were $1,700, and dividends paid during the period were $1,100. Based on this information alone, what was the amount of retained earnings at the beginning of Year 2?
Answer:
$2550
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculation to determine the amount of retained earnings at the beginning of Year 2
Using this formula
Beginning Retained Earnings + Revenue − Expenses − Dividends = Ending Retained Earnings
Let plug in the formula
Beginning Retained Earnings + $3,200 − $1,700 − $1,100 = $2950
Beginning Retained Earnings= $2,950-$400
Beginning Retained Earnings = $2,550
Therefore the amount of retained earnings at the beginning of Year 2 is $2550

Proportion problems
An example is:
y is directly proportional to x such that: y=4 when x = 2;
Derive the equation
For direct proportions, we have:
[tex]y\ \alpha\ x[/tex]
This gives:
[tex]y = kx[/tex]
Make k the subject
[tex]k = y/x[/tex]
So:
[tex]k = 4/2 =2[/tex]
So, the equation is:
[tex]y = kx[/tex]
[tex]y = 2x[/tex]
Assume the above question is for inverse proportion
The variation will be:
[tex]y\ \alpha\ \frac{1}{x}[/tex]
This gives:
[tex]y\ = \frac{k}{x}[/tex]
Make k the subject
[tex]k =x*y[/tex]
[tex]k =2* 4 = 8[/tex]
So, the equation is:
[tex]y\ = \frac{k}{x}[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{8}{x}[/tex]

SCC U of 1 pt 3 of 1 1.2.11 Assigned Media A rectangle has a width of 49 centimeters and a perimeter of 216 centimeters. V The length is cm.
Answer:
The length is of 59 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle:
The perimeter of a rectangle with width w and length l is given by:
[tex]P = 2(w + l)[/tex]
Width of 49 centimeters and a perimeter of 216 centimeters:
This means that [tex]w = 49, P = 216[/tex]
The length is cm.
We have to solve the equation for l. So
[tex]P = 2(w + l)[/tex]
[tex]216 = 2(49 + l)[/tex]
[tex]216 = 98 + 2l[/tex]
[tex]2l = 118[/tex]
[tex]l = \frac{118}{2}[/tex]
[tex]l = 59[/tex]
The length is of 59 cm.
The quadrilateral KLMN is dilated with the center of dilation located at point M. Which statement is accurate?
1. The scale factor is 3, which means the length of the image of segment KL will be 1/3 times as long.
2. The scale factor is 1/3, which means the length of the image of segment KL will be 1/3 times as long.
3. The scale factor is 3, which means the length of the image of segment KL will be 3 times as long.
4. The scale factor is 1/3, which means the length of the image of segment KL will be 3 times as long.
Answer:
3. The scale factor is 3, which means the length of the image of segment KL will be 3 times as long.
Step-by-step explanation:
Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are rotation, translation, reflection and dilation.
Dilation is the increase or decrease in the size of a figure. If a point A(x, y) is dilated about the center of dilation located at O(a, b), the new point is at A'[k(x - a) + a, k(y - b) + b].
Quadrilateral KLMN has vertices at K(2, 1), L(-1, -5), M(6, -5) and N(6, 1). If it is dilated by 3, about the center M(6, -5), the new points are:
K' = (3(2 - 6) + 6, 3(1 - (-5)) + (-5)) = (-6, 13)
L' = (3(-1 - 6) + 6, 3(-5 - (-5)) + (-5)) = (-15, -5)
M' = (3(6 - 6) + 6, 3(-5 - (-5)) + (-5)) = (6, -5)
N' = (3(6 - 6) + 6, 3(1 - (-5)) + (-5)) = (6, 13)
Therefore the image of segment KL will be 3 times long.

A ice cream shop sells 8 different flavors of ice cream with A choice of three different styles of calls how many different ice cream cones are possible if you select one ice cream flavor with one type of ice cream cone
Explanation:
There are 8 different flavors and 3 types of cones. This means there are 8*3 = 24 different combos possible.
Imagine a table with 8 rows and 3 columns. Each row is a different flavor and each column is a different cone type. The table formed has 24 inner cells to represent a different combination of flavor + cone type. So that's why we multiplied those values earlier.
Note: This only works if you're only able to select one type of flavor.

y + 4 = x
10x + 2y = 16
Answer:
(2, -2)Step-by-step explanation:
Given system:
y + 4 = x 10x + 2y = 16Substitute x into the second equation:
10(y + 4) + 2y = 1610y + 40 + 2y = 1612y = -24y = -2Find x:
x = -2 + 4x = 2Answer:
x = 2 and y = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given system :-
y + 4 = x
10x + 2y = 16
Solve the system by substitution:-
Let,
y + 4 = x ...(1)
10x + 2y = 16 ...(2)
Solve for y;
Substitute y + 4 as x in the eq.(2)
10( y + 4 ) + 2y = 16
Distribute 10.10y + 40 + 2y = 16
Combine like terms.12y + 40 = 16
Move constant to the right-hand side and change their sign.12y = 16 - 40
Subtract 16 from -40.12y = -24
Divide both side by 12.12y / 12 = -24/12
Hence, y = -2
Solve for x.
Substitute the value of y in eq.(1)-2 + 4 = x
Add -2 and 4.Hence, 2 = x
Given: x + 2 < -5.
