Social scientists discovered that 1,013 General Social Survey (GSS) respondents in 2010 watched television for an average of 3.01 hours per day, with a standard deviation of 2.65 hours per day. Answer the following questions, assuming the distribution of the number of television hours is normal.

Required:
a. What is the Z score for a person who watches more than 8 hr/day?
b. What proportion of people watch television less than 5 hr/day? How many does this correspond to in the sample?
c. What number of television hours per day corresponds to a Z score of +1?
d. What is the percentage of people who watch between 1 and 6 hr television per day?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Following are the responses to the given question:

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]Sample \ size = n = 1013\\\\\mu = 3.01\\\\\sigma = 2.65[/tex]

For point a:

Using formula:

[tex]Z = \frac{(X - \mu)}{\sigma}\\\\X = 8\\\\Z = \frac{(8- 3.01)}{2.65} = 1.88\\\\[/tex]

For point b:

[tex]P(X<5)=?\\\\ x = 5\\\\ Z = \frac{(X - \mu)}{\sigma} = \frac{(5 -3.01)}{2.65} = 0.7509434\\\\P(Z< 0.7509434) = 0.7736566\\\\P(X<5) = P(Z< 0.7509434) = 0.7736566[/tex]

For point c:

[tex]X=? \\\\Z = 1\\\\\text{Formula for X score:}\\\\X = \mu + Z \times \alpha\\\\X = 3.01 + 1\times 2.65 = 3.01 + 2.65 = 5.66[/tex]

For point d:

[tex]P(1 \leq X \leq 6)=? \\\\P(1 \leq X \leq 6) = P(X \leq 6) - P(X\leq 1) = P(X< 6) - P(X<1)\\\\\text{Z score for x} = 6\\\\Z = \frac{(6 - 3.01)}{2.65} = 1.128301887 \\\\P(Z< 1.128301887) = 0.870403777 \\\\P(X<6) = P(Z< 1.128301887) = 0.870403777 \\\\\text{Z score for x} = 1 \\\\[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{(1 -3.01)}{2.65} = -0.758490566\\\\P(Z< -0.758490566) = 0.224078679\\\\P(X<1) = P(Z< -0.758490566) = 0.224078679 \\\\P(1 \leq X \leq 6) = P(X \leq 6) - P(X\leq 1) = P(X<6) - P(X<1) \\\\ = 0.870403777 - 0.224078679 = 0.646325097 \\\\\text{Required probability} = 0.646325097[/tex]

Assume the random variable X is normally distributed with mean μ = 50 and standard deviation σ= 7. Compute the probability.

Answers

Complete question is;

Assume the random variable X is normally distributed with mean μ = 50 and standard deviation σ = 7. What is the probability P (X > 42)?

Answer:

P(X > 42) = 0.1271

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

mean; μ = 50

Standard deviation; σ = 7

Formula for the z-score is;

z = (x - μ)/σ

Thus;

z = (42 - 50)/7

z = -1.14

Since we are looking for P (X > 42), then let's look up this z-value from the z-distribution table attached.

We have;

P(X > 42) = 0.1271

•8(69 - 9) and 489 - 72
•16 + 4w and 2(2w + 8)
•32t + 16 and 16(2 – t)

Answers

Answer:

14d + 21 = 7(2d + 3)

16 + 4w = 2(2w + 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

14d + 21

7(2d + 3)

14d + 21

14d + 21 = 7(2d + 3)

9(5r - 2)

45r - 18

14r - 7

9(5r - 2) ≠ 14r - 7

8(69 - 9)

552 - 72

489 - 72

8(69 - 9) ≠ 489 - 72

16 + 4w

2(2w + 8)

4w + 16

16 + 4w = 2(2w + 8)

32t + 16

16(2 - t)

32 - 16t

32t + 16 ≠ 16(2 - t)

The pairs of expressions that are equivalent are 14d + 21 and 7(2d + 3) and 16 + 4w and 2(2w + 8)

How to determine the equivalent expressions?

To do this, we test each pair of expression.

This is done as follows

14d + 21 = 7(2d + 3)

Expand

14d + 21 = 14d + 21 --- this is true

9(5r - 2) = 14r - 7

Expand

45r - 18 = 14r - 7 --- this is false

8(69 - 9) = 489 - 72

Expand

552 - 72 = 489 - 72 --- this is false

16 + 4w = 2(2w + 8)

Expand

16 + 4w = 4w + 16 ---- this is true

32t + 16 = 16(2 – t)

Expand

32t + 16 = 32 - 16t --- this is false

Hence, the pairs of expressions that are equivalent are 14d + 21 and 7(2d + 3) and 16 + 4w and 2(2w + 8)

write a quadratic function f whose zeros are 2 and -6

Answers

Answer:

hope this will help u

Step-by-step explanation:

⇒  Given zeros are α=2 and β=−6.

⇒  Sum of zeros =α+β=2+(−6)=−4

⇒  Product of zeros =α×β=2×(−6)=−12

⇒  Quadratic polynomial =x  

2

−(α+β)x+(α×β)

⇒  Quadratic polynomial =x  

2

−(−4)x+(−12)

∴   Quadratic polynomial =x  

2

+4x−12

The quadratic function having 2 and -6 as zeros is f(x) = x² + 4x - 12.

What is the quadratic function with roots 2 and -6?

Given the parameters:
Zeros of the function: 2 and -6.

To find the quadratic function f(x) with zeros at 2 and -6, first set up the equation:

x = 2 and x = -6

These are the real solutions to the quadratic equation:

This means that; ( x - 2 ) and ( x + 6 ) are the factors of the quadratic equation:

Hence:

( x - 2 )( x + 6 ) = 0

Expand using distributive property:

x( x + 6 ) - 2(x + 6 )  = 0

x² + 6x - 2x - 12 = 0

Collect and add like terms:

x² + 4x - 12 = 0

Therefore, the function will be:
f(x) = x² + 4x - 12.

The quadratic function is f(x) = x² + 4x - 12.

he needs to get a 91 to have a mean score of 90

Step-by-step explanation:

add up all the known scores to get 629

let 's' = lowest test score

(629 + s) ÷ 8 = 90   [we divide by 8 because there are 7 known and 1 unknown score)

cross-multiply to get:

Because we have a right triangle we can apply the trigonometric functions

sin30 =base/hypothenuse = base/10

cos 30 = hight/hypothenuse =hight/10

sin30 = base /10  ; multiply both sides by 10

base = 10*sin30

cos 30 = hight /10 ; multiply both sides by 10

hight = 10 cos 30

But as he is guessing all three places it becomes 1/17

The probability of getting the 1st,2nd, and 3rd position will be 1/17.

What is the probability?

Probability is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes in other words the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

Given that while watching the Kentucky Derby horse races, you decide to guess who will win 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. There are 17 horses in the race.

The probability is calculated by the formula,

Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Number of sample

Number of favorable outcomes = 1

Number of samples = 17

Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Number of sample

Probability = 1/17

Therefore, the probability of getting the 1st,2nd, and 3rd position will be 1/17.
