The lengths of nails produced in a factory are normally distributed with a mean of 6.13 centimeters and a standard deviation of 0.06 centimeters. Find the two lengths that separate the top 7% and the bottom 7%. These lengths could serve as limits used to identify which nails should be rejected.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A value of 6.0415 centimeters separates the bottom 7%, while a value of 6.2185 centimeters separates the top 7%.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

Mean of 6.13 centimeters and a standard deviation of 0.06 centimeters.

This means that [tex]\mu = 6.13, \sigma = 0.06[/tex]

Value that separated the top 7%:

The 100 - 7 = 93rd percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.93, so X when Z = 1.475.

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

[tex]1.475 = \frac{X - 6.13}{0.06}[/tex]

[tex]X - 6.13 = 1.475*0.06[/tex]

[tex]X = 6.2185[/tex]

Value that separates the bottom 7%:

The 7th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.07, so X when Z = -1.475.

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

[tex]-1.475 = \frac{X - 6.13}{0.06}[/tex]

[tex]X - 6.13 = -1.475*0.06[/tex]

[tex]X = 6.0415[/tex]

A value of 6.0415 centimeters separates the bottom 7%, while a value of 6.2185 centimeters separates the top 7%.

A researcher believes that 9% of males smoke cigarettes. If the researcher is correct, what is the probability that the proportion of smokers in a sample of 664 males would differ from the population proportion by greater than 3%

Answers

Answer:

0.0070 = 0.70% probability that the proportion of smokers in a sample of 664 males would differ from the population proportion by greater than 3%

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, 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 [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

A researcher believes that 9% of males smoke cigarettes.

This means that [tex]p = 0.09[/tex]

Sample of 664

This means that [tex]n = 664[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.09[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.09*0.91}{664}} = 0.011[/tex]

What is the probability that the proportion of smokers in a sample of 664 males would differ from the population proportion by greater than 3%?

Proportion below 9 - 3 = 6% or above 9 + 3 = 12%. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are equal, so we find one of them and multiply by 2.

Probability the proportion is below 6%

P-value of Z when X = 0.06. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{0.06 - 0.09}{0.011}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.7[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.7[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0035

2*0.0035 = 0.0070

0.0070 = 0.70% probability that the proportion of smokers in a sample of 664 males would differ from the population proportion by greater than 3%

much does one rose cost?

Answers

Answer: [tex]\$1.45[/tex]; [tex]\$3.6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A dozen roses in a gift box costs $21

Similarly, 20 roses in a gift box costs $32.6

Suppose the price of single rose and gift box is [tex]x[/tex] and [tex]y[/tex]

[tex]\therefore 12x+y=21\quad \ldots(i)\\\Rightarrow 20x+y=32.6\quad \ldots(ii)[/tex]

Solving (i) and (ii) ,  we get

[tex]x=\$1.45;y=\$3.6[/tex]

Thus, the price of the one rose is [tex]\$1.45[/tex] and the price of gift box is [tex]\$3.6[/tex]

If a procedure meets all of the conditions of a binomial distribution except the number of trials is not​ fixed, then the geometric distribution can be used. The probability of getting the first success on the xth trial is given by ​
P(x) = p(1−p)x−1​
where p is the probability of success on any one trial. Subjects are randomly selected for a health survey. The probability that someone is a universal donor​ (with group O and type Rh negative​ blood) is 0.15. Find the probability that the first subject to be a universal blood donor is the fifth person selected.

Answers

Answer:

0.0783

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of getting the first success on xtg trial ; this is a geometric distribution :

P(x) = p(1−p)^x−1

The probability of being a universal donor , p = 0.15

The probability of obtaining someone who is a universal donor on 5th trial will be :

P(5) = 0.15(1 - 0.15)^(5 - 1)

P(5) = 0.15(0.85)^4

P(5) = 0.15(0.52200625)

P(5) = 0.0783009375

P(5) = 0.0783

What is the solution to this system of equations y=x+6 and y=-.5x+3

Answers

Answer:

x=-6, y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

it's impossible to fully solve an equation where 2 variables are unknown. So we have to make it equal to 1 set. to do this, we have to think logically.

if y=x+6, then that means wherever it says y, we can put x+6. because x+6=x+6, right? so we plug x+6 into the second equation and get.

x+6=0.5x+3

to solve for x we subtract 6 from one side and 0.5 from the other and get

0.5x=-3

then we multiply both sides by 2 to make be a whole number

x=-6

now we just plug this into either equation. because the first one is easier, we can just set it up as

y=(-6)+6

which means y=0

Suppose z varies directly with x and inversely with the square of y. If z = 16 when x = 4 and y = 1 , what is z when x = 8 and y = 9 ?

Answers

Answer:

z = 3.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

z varies directly with x and inversely with the square of y. We can write it as :

[tex]z\propto \dfrac{x}{y}\\\\z=\dfrac{kx}{y}[/tex]

Where

k is constant

Put z = 16 when x = 4 and y = 1

[tex]16=\dfrac{k\times 4}{1}\\\\k=4[/tex]

Now put k = 4, x = 8 and y = 9

[tex]z=\dfrac{4\times 8}{9}\\\\z=3.6[/tex]

So, the value of z is equal to 3.6.

Consider a parallelogram in which one side is 3 inches long, another side measures 4 inches, and the measurement of one angle is 45°. How many parallelograms can you construct given these conditions? What are the lengths of the sides and the measurements of the angles for the parallelogram(s)? Using the given information, can you determine the lengths of all the sides of the parallelogram? If so, what are the side lengths?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (a) one parallelogram

  (b) opposite sides are 3 inches and 4 inches. Opposite angles are 45° and 135°

  (c) yes, all side lengths can be determined, see (b)

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite sides of a parallelogram are the same length, so if one side is 3 inches, so is the opposite side. Similarly, if one side is 4 inches, so is the opposite side. If sides have different lengths, they must be adjacent sides. The given numbers tell us the lengths of all of the sides.

The 4 inch sides are adjacent to the 3 inch sides. Thus the angle between a 4 inch side and a 3 inch side must be 45°. Opposite angles are congruent, and adjacent angles are supplementary, so specifying one angle specifies them all.

Only one parallelogram can be formed with these sides and angles. (The acute angle can be at the left end or the right end of the long side. This gives rise to two possible congruent orientations of the parallelogram. Because these are congruent, we claim only one parallelogram is possible. Each is a reflection of the other.)

the percentage of people under the age of 18 was 23.5% in New York City, 25.8% in Chicago, and 26% in Los Angeles.

If one person is selected from each city, what is the probability that all of them are under 18?

Answers

Answer:

0.0158 = 1.58% probability that all of them are under 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of independent events:

If three events, A, B and C are independent, the probability of all happening is the multiplication of the probabilities of each happening, that is:

[tex]P(A \cap B \cap C) = P(A)P(B)P(C)[/tex]

The percentage of people under the age of 18 was 23.5% in New York City, 25.8% in Chicago, and 26% in Los Angeles.

This means that [tex]P(A) = 0.235, P(B) = 0.258, P(C) = 0.26[/tex]

If one person is selected from each city, what is the probability that all of them are under 18?

Since the three people are independent:

[tex]P(A \cap B \cap C) = 0.235*0.258*0.26 = 0.0158[/tex]

0.0158 = 1.58% probability that all of them are under 18.

The function ()=5^3+3x−6 has inverse function . Find ′(138).

Answers

Answer:

  f⁻¹(138) = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find the value of x that makes the function have a value of 138:

  f(x) = 5x^3 +3x -6

  138 = 5x^3 +3x -6

  0 = 5x^3 +3x -144

Descartes's rule of signs tells us this has one positive real solution. The rational root theorem gives us 30 possibilities. Rewriting the equation as ...

  x^3 = (144 -3x)/5 = 28.8 -0.6x

suggests that the value of x is less than ∛28.8 ≈ 3.065. Trying x=3, we find that to be a solution.

  (5x² +3)(x) -6 = 0 . . . . rewrite of the above equation

  (5·3² +3)·3 -144 = (48)(3) -144 = 0 . . . . true

Then ...

  f⁻¹(138) = 3

The answer is found easily using a graphing calculator. The solution is the x-intercept of 138 -f(x) = 0.
