The mean per capita consumption of milk per year is 131 liters with a variance of 841. If a sample of 132 people is randomly selected, what is the probability that the sample mean would be less than 133.5 liters

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.8389 = 83.89% probability that the sample mean would be less than 133.5 liters.

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.

The mean per capita consumption of milk per year is 131 liters with a variance of 841.

This means that [tex]\mu = 131, \sigma = \sqrt{841} = 29[/tex]

Sample of 132 people

This means that [tex]n = 132, s = \frac{29}{\sqrt{132}}[/tex]

What is the probability that the sample mean would be less than 133.5 liters?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 133.5. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{133.5 - 131}{\frac{29}{\sqrt{132}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.99[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.99[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8389

0.8389 = 83.89% probability that the sample mean would be less than 133.5 liters.

Solve the quadratic equation 12x^2 - 288 = 0 using the square root method.

Answers

Answer:

C) x = ± 4

Step-by-step explanation:

12x² - 288 = 0

Add 288 on both sides. Anything plus zero gives itself.

12x ² = 288

Divide both side by 12

[tex] \small \sf \: x {}^{2} = \frac{288}{12} \\ [/tex]

Divide 288 by 12 to get 24

[tex]\small \sf x {}^{2} = \frac{ \cancel{288 }}{ \cancel{12}} \\ [/tex]

x² = 24

Taking square root of each side and remember to use positive and negative roots

[tex] \small \sf \: \sqrt{x {}^{2} } = ± \sqrt{ 24} [/tex]

[tex] \small \sf \: x_1, _2 = ± \sqrt{ 24} [/tex]

One can observe the midpoint is [tex](-3,1)[/tex].

But in order to verify the observation we must use formula to compute the midpoint of the segment formed by the endpoints.

the table below represents a linear function f(x) and the equation represents a function g (x)

part a: write a sentence to compare thw slope of thw two functions and show thw steps you used to determine the slope of f(x) and g(x).

part b: which function has a greater y-intercwpt? justify your answer ​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a). For function 'f',

Slope of a linear function passing through two points [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex] is given by,

Slope = [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

For the function 'f' given in the table,

Slope of the linear function passing through two points (-1, -5) and (0, -1) given in the table,

Slope = [tex]\frac{-5+1}{-1-0}[/tex]

          = 4

Equation of the line passing through a point (0, -1) and slope = 4 will be,

y - y' = m(x - x')

y + 1 = 4(x - 0)

y = 4x - 1

f(x) = 4x - 1

For function 'g',

Equation of the function 'g' has been given as,

g(x) = 4x + 3

By comparing this equation with the slope-intercept equation of a line,

y = mx + b

Therefore, slope of the function 'g' is,

m = 4

Since slopes of both the functions are same, linear graphs of both the functions will be parallel.

b). Equation of the function 'f' is,

f(x) = 4x - 1

y-intercept of the function = -1

Equation of function 'g',

g(x) = 4x + 3

y-intercept = 3

Therefore, function 'g' will have the greater y-intercept.

determine the mean and median.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\bar x = 3.545[/tex]

[tex]Median = 3.435[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]x:3.89, 3.51, 3.97, 3.31, 3.21, 3.36, 3.67, 3.24, 3.27[/tex]

[tex]10th: 4.02[/tex]

Solving (a): The mean

This is calculated as:

[tex]\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\bar x = \frac{3.89 +3.51 +3.97 +3.31 +3.21 +3.36 +3.67 +3.24 +3.27+4.02}{10}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x = \frac{35.45}{10}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x = 3.545[/tex]

Solving (b): The median

First, we sort the data; as follows:

[tex]3.21, 3.24, 3.27, 3.31, 3.36, 3.51, 3.67, 3.89, 3.97, 4.02[/tex]

[tex]n = 10[/tex]

So, the median position is:

[tex]Median = \frac{n + 1}{2}th[/tex]

[tex]Median = \frac{10 + 1}{2}th[/tex]

[tex]Median = \frac{11}{2}th[/tex]

[tex]Median = 5.5th[/tex]

This means that the median is the average of the 5th and 6th item

[tex]Median = \frac{3.36 + 3.51}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Median = \frac{6.87}{2}[/tex]

[tex]Median = 3.435[/tex]

Answers

Answer : barry

12<15

Barry's unit rate is 15 minutes per mile and Robin's unit rate is 12 minutes per mile

The unit rates of Barry and Robin

We have:

Barry

Distance = 2 miles

Time = 30 minutes

Unit rate = Time/Distance

Unit rate = 30 minutes/2 miles

Unit rate = 15 minutes per mile

Robin

Distance = 3 miles

Time = 36 minutes

Unit rate = Time/Distance

Unit rate = 36 minutes/3 miles

Unit rate = 12 minutes per mile

Hence, Barry's unit rate is 15 minutes per mile and Robin's unit rate is 12 minutes per mile

Who walk faster?

The unit rates mean that:

Barry covers 1 mile in 15 minutesRobin covers 1 mile in 12 minutes

Hence, Robin walks faster

What is the measure of angle WZY? 54.5° 71° 125.5° 180°

Answers

Answer:

71

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of angle WXY will be thee ame as the measure of the intercepted arc, 109°.

W and Y are both tangent to the circle; this means angle XWZ and angle XYZ are both 90°.

Every quadrilateral has a total measure of 360°; to find the measure of WZY, we subtract:

360-90-90-109 = 71°

The measure of angle WZY (∠WZY) is; 71°

What is the measure of the angle?

From the attached image, we can say that the measure of ∠WXY will be the same as the measure of the intercepted arc, 109°.

Now, W and Y are both tangent to the circle and this means that ∠XWZ and ∠XYZ are both equal to 90°.

Now, every quadrilateral has a total internal sum of angles as 360°.

Thus,  ∠WZY is gotten from;

∠WZY = 360 - (90 + 90 + 109)

∠WZY = 71°
