Suppose that populations of men and women have the following summary statistics for their heights (in
centimeters):
Mean
Standard deviation
Men
HM = 172
M = 7.2
Women
Uw = 162
ow = 5.4
Both distributions are approximately normal. Suppose we randomly select a man and a woman from each
population, and calculate the difference between their heights. We can assume that their heights are
independent
Find the probability that the woman is taller than the man
You may round your answer to two decimal places

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

172-162 = 10  

 

We can find the standard deviation of D by adding the variances of the heights and taking the square root:

Representing probability with area

When D= M-W =0, their heights are equal. When the man is taller, D is positive, and when the woman is taller, D is negative. Since we know the distribution of the difference D is normally distributed, the probability that the woman is taller than the man can be found by calculating the shaded area below D=0, in the corresponding normal distribution:

A standard normal curve is plotted on a horizontal axis representing D, that goes from negative 17 to 37. The mean, or mu sub D, = 10. The standard deviations, or sigma sub D = 9. The value 0 is marked. The area under the curve to the left of 0 is shaded, representing the probability that the woman is taller. The area to the right represents the probability that the man is taller.

lower bound: −9999

upper bound: 0

μ=10

σ=9

​  

Answer 2

Using subtraction of normal variables, it is found that there is a 0.1335 = 13.35% probability that the woman is taller than the man.

In a normal distribution 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]

It 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, which is the percentile of X. When two measures are subtracted, the mean is the subtraction of the means while the standard deviation is the square root of the variances.

In this problem:

Men have mean weight of 172 cm, women of 162 cm, hence, for the distribution of the differences, the mean is [tex]\mu = 162 - 172 = -10[/tex].The standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances, hence [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{7.2^2 + 5.4^2} = 9[/tex]

The probability of the women being taller is P(X > 0), which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.

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

[tex]Z = \frac{0 - (-10)}{9}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.11[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.11[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8665.

1 - 0.8665 = 0.1335

0.1335 = 13.35% probability that the woman is taller than the man.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form that is perpendicular to y = -7x + 3 and passing through (14.1).

Answers

Answer:

y = 1/7x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Find the slope.

- In this case, the equation given is in simplest form so you can easily come to the conclusion that '-7' is the slope. But, since the math question wants a slope-intercept form in perpendicular form, the slope would actually be 1/7.

2) Use the point-slope form and substitute the values available. Then solve.

m (slope) = 1/7

(a, b) = (14, 1)

y - b = m(x - a)

y - 1 = 1/7(x - 14)

y - 1 = 1/7x - 2

y = 1/7x - 1

The result is your answer.

Congruent triangle

Answers

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles

97 + x = 64 + 27

x = 97 - 64 - 27 = 6

Answer: x=-6

you know that the interior angles of a triangle equal 180°. so lets find the remaining angle measure

64 + 27 = 91

180 - 91 = 89

so 89 is the third interior angle of the triangle. now let's find the exterior angle.

you know that the extended angle is supplementary; which means it will equal 180° as well. so lets add the third interior angle we just found and let's add it to the unknown expression:

89 + 97 + x = 180

186 + x = 180

-186        -186

x = -6

now it might seem wrong because x is negative and it feels like it should be positive. but let's check our answer.

64+27+89 does equal 180

and 97+(-6)+89 does equal 180

The 12 students in the Environmental Club represent 20% of the students in the seventh grade. How many students are in the seventh grade?

Answers

The students that are in the seventh grade is 60.

How to calculate the number of students?

A percentage is a value or ratio that may be stated as a fraction of 100. If we need to calculate a percentage of a number, we should divide it's entirety and then multiply it by 100. The percentage therefore refers to a component per hundred. Per 100 is what the word percent means. It is represented by %.

Let the students that are in the seventh grade be x.

Since 12 students in the Environmental Club represent 20% of the students in the seventh grade. This will be:

20% × x = 12

0.2x = 12

Divide

x = 12 / 0.2

x = 60

Therefore, there are 60 students.

Movie tickets cost $6 for adults and $2 for children under the age of 12. If 175 movie tickets were sold with cash receipts of $750, how many children’s tickets were sold?

Answers

Answer:

75 child tickets and 100 adult tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that adult tickets cost $ 6 and children's tickets cost $ 2, knowing that 175 tickets were sold for $ 750, to determine how many child tickets were sold the following calculation must be performed:

2 x 175 = 350

750 - 350 = 400

6 - 2 = 4

400/4 = 100

175 - 100 = 75

100 x 6 = 600

75 x 2 = 150

Therefore, 75 child tickets and 100 adult tickets were sold.

The value of x is

The area is

square units.

Answers

Answer:

x = 17

Area = 10,362units²

Step-by-step explanation

Given the sides of the triangle

S1 = 9x+4

s2 = 8x-4

S3 = 4x+17

Perimeter of the triangle is the sum of all the sides

P = S1+S2+S3

374 = 9x+4+8x-4+4x+17

374 = 21x+17

21x = 374-17

21x = 357

x = 357/21

x = 17

Hence the value of x is 17

Area of the triangle is 1/2bh

A = 1/2bh

b is the base

h is the height

Let the base be 9x + 4 and height be 8x-4

b = 9x+4

b = 9(17)+4

b = 153+4

b = 157units

h = 8x-4

h =8(17)-4

h = 136-4

h = 132

Area = 1/2 * 157 * 132

Area = 157*66

Area = 10,362units²
