(Small sample confidence intervals for a population mean) suppose you are taking a sampling of 15 measurements. you find that x=75 and s =5. assuming normality, the 99% confidence interval for the population mean is:__________

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval is  [tex]71.67 < \mu < 78.33[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The sample  size  is  [tex]n = 15[/tex]

      The  sample  mean is  [tex]\= x = 75[/tex]

        The  standard deviation is  [tex]s = 5[/tex]

 Given that confidence is  99%  then the level of significance is mathematically represented as

              [tex]\alpha = 100 - 99[/tex]

             [tex]\alpha = 1\%[/tex]

             [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]

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

   The  value is

                  [tex]Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } = 2.58[/tex]

Generally the margin for error is mathematically represented as

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

=>         [tex]E = 2.58 * \frac{ 5}{ \sqrt{15} }[/tex]

=>         [tex]E = 3.3307[/tex]

   The  99% confidence interval is mathematically represented as

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

=>          [tex]75 - 3.3307 < \mu <75 + 3.3307[/tex]

=>          [tex]71.67 < \mu < 78.33[/tex]

3. A medical devices company wants to know the number of MRI machines needed per day. A previous study found a standard deviation of four hours. How many MRI machines must the company study in order to have a margin of error of 0.5 hours when calculating a 90% confidence interval

Answers

Answer:

173 MRI machines

Step-by-step explanation:

Margin of error E = 0.5

Confidence interval 90% = 1-0.9 = 0.1

Standard deviation = 4 hours

Number of MRI machines needed per day n, = [(z alpha/2 * SD)/E]²

Z alpha/2 = 1.645 at alpha = 0.1

Inputting these values into n we have that

[(1.645*4)/0.5]²

= 13.16²

= 173.18 is approximately equal to 173

The company has to study 173 machines.

If y varies directly with x and y = -11.7 when x = -3, find the value of y when x = 7.

Answers

Answer:

y = 27.3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of y when x = 7 we must first find the relationship between them.

The statement

y varies directly with x is written as

y = kx

where k is the constant of proportionality

From the question

when y = - 11.7

x = - 3

We have

- 11.7 = -3k

Divide both sides by - 3

k = 3.9

So the formula for the variation is

y = 3.9k

When x = 7

y = 3.9(7)

y = 27.3

Figure out if the figure is volume or surface area.​

(and the cut out cm is 4cm)

Answers

Answer:

Surface area of the box = 168 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of cardboard needed = Surface area of the box

Since the given box is in the shape of a triangular prism,

Surface area of the prism = 2(surface area of the triangular bases) + Area of the three rectangular lateral sides

Surface area of the triangular base = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(\text{Base})(\text{height})[/tex]

                                                           = [tex]\frac{1}{2}(6)(4)[/tex]

                                                           = 12 cm²

Surface area of the rectangular side with the dimensions of (6cm × 9cm),

= Length × width

= 6 × 9

= 54 cm²

Area of the rectangle with the dimensions (9cm × 5cm),

= 9 × 5

= 45 cm²

Area of the rectangle with the dimensions (9cm × 5cm),

= 9 × 5

= 45 cm²

Surface area of the prism = 2(12) + 54 + 45 + 45

                                           = 24 + 54 + 90

                                           = 168 cm²

List the angles in order from the largest to the smallest for ABC.

Answers

Answer:

B. ∠A, ∠B, ∠C

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Draw a model with AB as the shortest line and BC as the longest line.

∠A connects the two shortest lines, making it the largest angle.

∠B connects the shortest and the longest lines, making it the second largest angle.

∠C connects the two longest lines, making it the smallest angle.

Answer:

A > B > C

Step-by-step explanation:

Ypu probably wouldn't think about it unless someone pointed it out, but if you look at a triangle of any type you can see that the sizes of the sides are directly related to the sizes of the angles opposed to them.

By this I mean, the largest side will have the largest angle across from it and the smallest side will have the smallest angle.

Based off of my drawing, it looks like the order is angle A, then B, then, and then C.

Diabetic patients have normally distributed cholesterol with mean 200 and standard deviation=10.


Find the percentage of patients whose cholesterol is between 198 mg/dL and


207 mg/dL ?

Answers

Answer:

The percentage of patients whose cholesterol is between 198 mg/dL and 207 mg/dL is 33.73%

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate this proportion, we follow the probability route, using the z-score statistics

Mathematically;

z-score = (x-mean)/SD

from the question, mean = 200 and SD = 10

So for 198

z-score = (198-200)/10 = -2/10 = -0.2

For 207

z-score = (207-200)/10 = 7/10 = 0.7

So the probability we want to calculate is;

P(-0.2<z<0.7)

Mathematically this can be calculated as;

P(z<0.7) - P(z<-0.2)

We can calculate the required probability using the standard normal distribution table

P(-0.2<x<0.7) = 0.3373 from the standard distribution table

So it is this 0.3373 that we now convert to percentage and that is 33.73%

Consider the following case and determine whether there is sufficient information to solve the triangle using the low of sines. Two angles and the side included between them are known.
A. There is insufficient information because to use the law of sines, one side and the angle opposite it must be known.
B. There is sufficient information because if two angles and a side included between them are known, the third angle and the remaining two sides can be determined using the law of sines.
C. There is insufficient information because to use the law of sines, two angles and a side opposite one of them must be known.
D. There is sufficient information because if two angles and a side included between them are known, the third angle can be determined using the angle sum formula and the remaining two sides can be determined using the law of sines.

Answers

Answer:

D. There is sufficient information because if two angles and a side included between them are known, the third angle can be determined using the angle sum formula and the remaining two sides can be determined using the law of sines.

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle is a plane shape that consists of 3 sides and 3 angles. There are different ways of solving for any unknown sides or angles of a triangle.

If any two angles and just one side of a triangle are known, then other angles and sides can also be determined using the sine rule.

For example, if a, b and c are the sides of the triangle and <A, <B and <C are the angles. The sine law is expressed as shown;

a/sinA = b/sinB = c/sinC

Any two can be equated to get any unknown sides and angles.

Also, if two of the angles are known, the third angle can be determined since the sum of angle in a triangle is 180°. If <A and <B are known for example, the third angle <C can be determined using the expression.

<C = 180°-(<A+<B)

Based on the explanation, option D is therefore the correct option i.e There is sufficient information because if two angles and a side included between them are known, the third angle can be determined using the angle sum formula and the remaining two sides can be determined using the law of sines.

Step-by-step explanation:

The n-th term of an arithmetic progression is ...

  an = a1 +d(n -1)

Then the value of n is ...

  n = (an -a1)/d +1

The sum of an arithmetic progression is the product of the number of terms and the average of the first and last terms. In this sequence, the common difference d is ...

  d = (b -a)

So, the sum is ...

  Sn = (a +2a)/2·((2a -a)/(b -a) +1)

  Sn = (3ab)/(2(b-a)) . . . . sum of the arithmetic progression

Find the measure of each angle in Triangle ABC

Answers

Answer:

m<A = 133 degrees

m<B = 17 degrees

m<C = 30 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

In a triangle, all the angles add up to 180 degrees.

So, adding all the angles gets us,

39x + 24

This equals 180 degrees so,

39x + 24 = 180

Subtract 24 from both sides,

39x + 24 - 24 = 180 - 24

39x = 156

Divide both sides by 39

x = 4

Now we have x = 4, we use this to plug in each equation of the angles.

m<A = 40(4) - 27 = 160 - 27 = 133

m<B = 25 - 2(4) = 25 - 8 = 17

m<C = 26 + 4 = 30

The rate of change in sales S is inversely proportional to time t (t > 1), measured in weeks. Find S as a function of t when the sales after 2 and 4 weeks are 162 units and 287 units, respectively.

Answers

Answer:

S = 250/t

Step-by-step explanation:

If the rate of change of sales is inversely proportional to the time t, this is expressed mathematically as ΔS ∝ 1/Δt

ΔS = k/Δt where k is the constant of proportionality

If ΔS = S₂-S₁ and Δt = t₂-t₁

S₂-S₁ = k/ t₂-t₁

If the sales after 2 and 4 weeks are 162 units and 287 units respectively, then when S₁  = 162, t₁ = 2 and when   S₂ = 287, t₂ = 4.

On substituting this values into the given functions, we will have;

287 - 162 = k/4-2

125 = k/2

cross multiplying

k = 125* 2

k = 250

Substituting k = 250 into the function ΔS = k/Δt

ΔS = 250/Δt

S = 250/t

Hence the value of S as function of t when the sales after 2 and 4 weeks are 162 units and 287 units, respectively is expressed as S = 250/t

If the function Q(t)=4e-0.00938t models the quantity (in kg) of an element in a storage unit after t years, how long will it be before the quantity is less than 1.5kg? Round to the nearest year.

Answers

Answer:

105 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function :

Q(t) = 4e^(-0.00938t)

Q = Quantity in kilogram of an element in a storage unit after t years

how long will it be before the quantity is less than 1.5kg

Inputting Q = 1.5kg into the equation:

1.5 = 4e^(-0.00938t)

Divide both sides by 4

(1.5 / 4) = (4e^(-0.00938t) / 4)

0.375 = e^(-0.00938t)

Take the ln of both sides

In(0.375) = In(e^(-0.00938t))

−0.980829 = -0.00938t

Divide both sides by 0.00938

0.00938t / 0.00938 = 0.980829 /0.00938

t = 104.56599

When t = 104.56599 years , the quantity in kilogram of the element in storage will be exactly 1.5kg

Therefore, when t = 105 years, the quantity of element in storage will be less than 1.5kg
