Critical Thinking: Empirical/Quantitative Skills
United flight 15 from New York's JFK to San Francisco uses a Boeing 757-200 with 180 seats. Because some
people with tickets don't show up. United will overbook by selling more than 180 tickets. If the flight is not
overbooked, the airline will lose revenue due to empty seats, but if too many tickets are sold and some
passengers are denied seats, the airline loses money from the compensation that must be given to bumped
passengers. Assume that there is a 0.905 probability that a passenger with a ticket will show up for the
flight. Also assume that the airline sells 200 tickets for the 180 seats that are available.

Answers

Answer:

1. 0.0910 = 9.10% probability that exactly 180 passengers show up for the flight.

2. 0.4522 = 45.22% probability that at most 180 passengers show up for the flight.

3. 0.5478 = 54.78% probability that more than 180 passengers show up for the flight.

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].

Assume that there is a 0.905 probability that a passenger with a ticket will show up for the  flight.

This means that [tex]p = 0.905[/tex]

Also assume that the airline sells 200 tickets

This means that [tex]n = 200[/tex]

Question 1:

Exactly, so we can use the P(X = x) formula, to find P(X = 180).

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 180) = C_{200,180}.(0.905)^{180}.(0.095)^{20} = 0.0910[/tex]

0.0910 = 9.10% probability that exactly 180 passengers show up for the flight.

2. When 200 tickets are sold, calculate the probability that at most 180 passengers show up for the flight.

Now we have to use the approximation.

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 200*0.905 = 181[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{200*0.905*0.095} = 4.15[/tex]

Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X \leq 180 + 0.5) = P(X \leq 180.5)[/tex], which is the p-value of Z when X = 180.5. Thus

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

[tex]Z = \frac{180.5 - 181}{4.15}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.12[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.12[/tex] has a p-value of 0.4522.

0.4522 = 45.22% probability that at most 180 passengers show up for the flight.

3. When 200 tickets are sold, calculate the probability that more than 180 passengers show up for the flight.

Complementary event with at most 180 passengers showing up, which means that the sum of these probabilities is 1. So

[tex]p + 0.4522 = 1[/tex]

[tex]p = 1 - 0.4522 = 0.5478[/tex]

0.5478 = 54.78% probability that more than 180 passengers show up for the flight.

The population, P(t), in millions, of a country, in year t, is given by the formula P(t) = 24 + 0.4t. What are the values of the population for t = 10, 20,
and 30?

Answers

Answer:

B. 28, 32, 36 millions

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

P(t) = 24 + 0.4t

Where,

P(t) = population in millions

t = number of years

✔️Value of the population when t = 10:

Plug in t = 10 into P(t) = 24 + 0.4t

P(t) = 24 + 0.4(10)

P(t) = 24 + 4

P(t) = 28 million

✔️Value of the population when t = 20:

Plug in t = 20 into P(t) = 24 + 0.4t

P(t) = 24 + 0.4(20)

P(t) = 24 + 8

P(t) = 32 million

✔️Value of the population when t = 30:

Plug in t = 30 into P(t) = 24 + 0.4t

P(t) = 24 + 0.4(30)

P(t) = 24 + 12

P(t) = 36 million

A manager records the repair cost for 14 randomly selected dryers. A sample mean of $88.34 and standard deviation of $19.22 are subsequently computed. Determine the 90% confidence interval for the mean repair cost for the dryers. Assume the population is approximately normal. Step 1 of 2 : Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

Hence the 90% confidence interval estimate of the population mean is [tex](79.24 , 97.44)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,  

Point estimate = sample mean = [tex]\bar x[/tex] = 88.34  

sample standard deviation = s = 19.22  

sample size = n = 14  

Degrees of freedom = df = n - 1 = 13  

Critical value =[tex]t\alpha /2,[/tex] df = 1.771

 

Margin of error

[tex]E = t\alpha/2,df \times (\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } )\\= 1.771 \times (19.22 / \sqrt 14)[/tex]  

Margin of error = E = 9.10  

The 90% confidence interval estimate of the population mean is,  

[tex]\bar x - E < \mu < \bar x + E\\\\88.34 - 9.10 < \mu < 88.34 + 9.10\\\\79.24 < \mu < 97.44\\(79.24 , 97.44)[/tex]

A scientist has acid solutions with concentrations of 4% and 15%. He wants to mix some of each solution to get 44 milliliters of solution with a 12% concentration. How many milliliters of each solution does he need to mix together?​

Answers

Let x and y be the amounts (in mL) of the 4% and 15% solutions, respectively, that the scientist needs to use.

He wants to end up with a 44 mL solution, so

x + y = 44 mL

Each milliliter of 4% solution contains 0.04 mL of acid, while each mL of 15% contains 0.15 mL of acid. The resulting solution should have a concentration of 12%, so that each mL of it contains 0.12 mL of acid. Then the solution will contain

0.04x + 0.15y = 0.12 × (44 mL) = 5.28 mL

of acid.

Solve for x and y. In the first equation, we have y = 44 mL - x, and substituting into the second equation gives

0.04x + 0.15 (44 mL - x) = 5.28 mL

0.04x + 6.6 mL - 0.15x = 5.28 mL

1.32 mL = 0.19x

x ≈ 6.95 mL

==>   y ≈ 37.05 mL

A market surveyor wishes to know how many energy drinks teenagers drink each week. They want to construct a 98% confidence interval for the mean and are assuming that the population standard deviation for the number of energy drinks consumed each week is 1.1. The study found that for a sample of 1027 teenagers the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week is 5.9. Construct the desired confidence interval. Round your answers to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer:

The 98% confidence interval for the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week by teenagers is (5.8, 6).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.01[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Z-table as such z has a p-value of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.01 = 0.99[/tex], so Z = 2.327.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

[tex]M = 2.327\frac{1.1}{\sqrt{1027}} = 0.1[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 5.9 - 0.1 = 5.8 drinks per week.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 5.9 + 0.1 = 6 drinks per week.

The 98% confidence interval for the mean number of energy drinks consumed per week by teenagers is (5.8, 6).

Find the value of y.

Answers

In the largest triangle, the missing side has length

√((11 + 5)² - x ²) = √(256 - x ²)

But it's also the hypotenuse of the triangle with side lengths 11 and y, so that its length can also be written as

√(11² + y ²) = √(121 + y ²)

so that

√(256 - x ²) = √(121 + y ²)

or, by taking the squares of both sides,

256 - x ² = 121 + y ²

y ² = 135 - x ²

In the smallest triangle, you have

5² + y ² = x ²   ==>   x ² = 25 + y ²

Substitute this into the previous equation and solve for y :

y ² = 135 - (25 + y ²)

y ² = 110 - y ²

2y ² = 110

y ² = 55

y = √55
