The manager of a donut store believes that 35% of the customers are first-time customers. A random sample of 150 customers will be used to estimate the proportion of first-time customers. Assuming this belief is correct, what is the probability that the sample proportion will be between 0.2 and 0.4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.8996 = 89.96% probability that the sample proportion will be between 0.2 and 0.4

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]

The manager of a donut store believes that 35% of the customers are first-time customers.

This means that [tex]p = 0.35[/tex]

Sample of 150 customers

This means that [tex]n = 150[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.35[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.35*0.65}{150}} = 0.0389[/tex]

What is the probability that the sample proportion will be between 0.2 and 0.4?

p-value of Z when X = 0.4 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.2.

X = 0.4

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{0.4 - 0.35}{0.0389}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.28[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.28[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8997

X = 0.2

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

[tex]Z = \frac{0.2 - 0.35}{0.0389}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -3.85[/tex]

[tex]Z = -3.85[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0001

0.8997 - 0.0001 = 0.8996

0.8996 = 89.96% probability that the sample proportion will be between 0.2 and 0.4

[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 0.875[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]n = 3[/tex]

[tex]B \to boys[/tex]

[tex]G \to girls[/tex]

[tex]P(G) = P(B) = 0.5[/tex] --- equal probability

See comment for complete question

Required:

[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl)[/tex]

To do this, we make use of complement rule:

The event that there is no girl out of the 3 children is: B B B

And the probability is:

[tex]P(No\ Girl) = P(B) * P(B) * P(B)[/tex]

[tex]P(No\ Girl) = 0.5*0.5*0.5[/tex]

[tex]P(No\ Girl) = 0.125[/tex]

So:

[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 1 - P(No\ girl)[/tex]

[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 1 - 0.125[/tex]

[tex]P(At\ least\ one\ girl) = 0.875[/tex]

An employment agency specializing in temporary construction help pays heavy equipment operators $123 per day and general laborers $89 per day. If thirty-one people were hired and the payroll was $3507, how many heavy equipment
operators were employed? How many laborers?
The number of heavy equipment operators hired was
The number of general laborers hired was

Answers

Answer:

The number of operators is 22 and the number of laborers is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a 2 line equation system

I'll call the laborers "L" and the equipment operators "E"

The first line of the system is pretty much telling me that the number of laborers plus the number of operators is 31:

L + E = 31

Now we need to calculate the money:

Since we know that laborers are paid $89 per day we're gonna multiply them by that. Same thing with the operator, but the value is now $123

89L + 123E = 3507

Our two line system is like this:

L + E = 31

89L + 123E = 3507

We need either L or E to be the same in both of the equations so that when I subtract one from another I can find the value of one of the variables

I'll choose L cause it's the lower number, so I'll multiply the upper equation:

L+E=31 === *89 ====> 89L + 89E = 2.759

Now we have these equations:

89L + 89E = 2.759

89L + 123E = 3507

Now I'm gonna subtract the lower equation from the upper one:

89L - 89L + 123E - 89E = 3507 - 2759

Since L is now zero it disappears, and by making the other calculations we have:

34E = 748

E = 22

Since E = 22, we can use the value in our first equation:

E+L=31 ===> 22+L=31 ===> L=9

Got it! The number of operators is 22 and the number of laborers is 9.

If you wanna double check this you can calculate the amount of money they're paid, which should add up to $3507:

22 operators * $123 = $2706

9 laborers * $89 = $801

2706+801 = $3507

We're good

the blueprint dimensions of the playground are 23/147 yd x 3/14 yd after reducing them by the factor of 2/147 what are the original dimensions if the playground in yards

Answers

Answer:

The original dimensions of the park are:

(23/2) yards by 7 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that you have a given dimension X

if you want to reduce that dimension by a scale factor k, such that:

0 < k < 1

The reduced dimension is just:

X' = k*X

Now let's solve the problem:

We know that the dimensions on the blueprint are:

(23/147)yd by (3/14)yd

And the original dimensions are:

A yd by B yd

We know that, to get the blueprint dimensions, we reduced the original dimensions by a factor of 2/147

Then we just have that:

(2/147)*A = 23/147

(2/147)*B = 3/14

Now we just can solve these two equations for A and B

A = (23/147)*(147/2) = 23/2

B = (3/14)*(2/147) = (3/7)*(1/147) = 49/7 = 7

Then the original dimensions of the park are:

(23/2) yards by 7 yards.

A 8 year old boy has 6 different toys and wants to put them all in a straight line.
In how many ways can this be done?

I would appreciate step by step, as I have no clue on how to solve. Thanks!

Answers

Answer:  720

============================================================

Explanation:

The number 8 from "8 year old boy" can be completely ignored. In my opinion, this is an (un)intentional distraction on your teacher's part.

There are 6 toys to arrange. The order is important.

For the first slot, there are 6 choices. Then the second slot has 5 choices (we cannot have a toy occupy more than one slot at a time).The third slot has 4 choices, and so on.

We have this countdown: 6,5,4,3,2,1

Those values multiply out to 6*5*4*3*2*1 = 720

There are 720 ways to arrange the 6 different toys. Order matters.

---------------------

An alternative approach is to use the nPr permutation formula with n = 6 and r = 6. We use a permutation because order matters.

The nPr formula is

[tex]_{n} P _{r} = \frac{n!}{(n-r)!}\\\\[/tex]

where the exclamation marks indicate factorial. For example, 6! = 6*5*4*3*2*1 = 720.

The radius of a right circular cone is increasing at a rate of 1.4 in/s while its height is decreasing at a rate of 2.4 in/s. At what rate is the volume of the cone changing when the radius is 140 in. and the height is 186 in.

Answers

Answer:

The volume is increasing at a rate of 27093 cubic inches per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cone:

THe volume of a cone, with radius r and height h, is given by:

[tex]V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2h[/tex]

In this question:

We have to differentiate implictly is function of t, so the three variables, V, r and h, are differenciated. So

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi r^2}{3}\frac{dh}{dt} + \frac{2\pi rh}{3}\frac{dr}{dt}[/tex]

The radius of a right circular cone is increasing at a rate of 1.4 in/s while its height is decreasing at a rate of 2.4 in/s.

This means that [tex]\frac{dr}{dt} = 1.4, \frac{dh}{dt} = -2.4[/tex]

Radius is 140 in. and the height is 186 in.

This means that [tex]r = 140, h = 186[/tex]

At what rate is the volume of the cone changing?

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi r^2}{3}\frac{dh}{dt} + \frac{2\pi rh}{3}\frac{dr}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi (140)^2}{3}(-2.4) + \frac{2\pi 140*186}{3}1.4[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = -0.8\pi(140)^2 + 62*2\pi*1.4*140[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dV}{dt} = 27093[/tex]

Positive, so increasing.

The volume is increasing at a rate of 27093 cubic inches per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

A graphing calculator makes short work of this, giving the solution as ...

  (t, u, w) = (1, -2, -2)

__

There are many ways to solve this "by hand." Here's one of them.

Add the first and third equations. Their sum is ...

  -3t +4w = -11 . . . . . [eq4]

Add this to twice the second equation. That sum is ...

  (-3t +4w) +2(-4t -2w) = (-11) +2(0)

  -11t = -11

  t = 1

Substituting this into the second equation gives ...

  -4(1) -2w = 0

  w +2 = 0 . . . . divide by -2

  w = -2 . . . . add -2

Substituting for t in the third equation lets us find u.

  2(1) -2u = 6

  -1 +u = -3 . . . . . divide by -2

  u = -2 . . . . add 1

What is a quadratic equation?

A basic quadratic equation, or a second-order polynomial equation with a single variable, is represented by the equation x : ax² + bx + c = 0, where a≠0 for the variable x. As it is a second-order polynomial equation, which is ensured by the algebraic fundamental theorem, it must have at least one solution.

We can start by simplifying the quadratic equation:

y = (x + 3)² – 4

y = x² + 6x + 9 - 4

y = x² + 6x + 5

Now, we can use various methods to find values of x and y that satisfy this equation. Here are five possible values:

If we substitute x = -1, we get:

y = (-1)² + 6(-1) + 5

y = 0

So, one solution is (-1, 0).

If we substitute x = 0, we get:

y = 0² + 6(0) + 5

y = 5

So, another solution is (0, 5).

If we substitute x = -5, we get:

y = (-5)² + 6(-5) + 5

y = 0

So, another solution is (-5, 0).

To find rational solutions, we can factor in the quadratic expression:

y = x² + 6x + 5

y = (x + 1)(x + 5)

So, the solutions are x = -1 and x = -5. Substituting these values into the equation, we get:

For x = -1, y = (-1)² + 6(-1) + 5 = 0

For x = -5, y = (-5)² + 6(-5) + 5 = 0

So, the solutions are (-1, 0) and (-5, 0).

From f(x) to k(x), the graphed parabola is stretched and wider.

Answer: Choice B) Vertically compressed by a factor of 8.

Explanation:

Consider a point like (8,64) which is on f(x).

If we plug in x = 8 into k(x), then we would get k(8) = 8. The old output y = 64 is now y = 8. This is an example of a vertical compression of 8. It's 8 times smaller in the vertical direction compared to what it used to be. This is because the k(x) outputs are 1/8 those of the f(x) outputs.

Effectively we have k(x) = (1/8)*f(x).

Another example would be x = 16 leading to y = 256 on f(x). For k(x), we have x = 16 lead to y = 32
