Answer:
a) 5.37% probability that an individual distance is greater than 210.9 cm
b) 75.80% probability that the mean for 15 randomly selected distances is greater than 196.00 cm.
c) Because the underlying distribution is normal. We only have to verify the sample size if the underlying population is not normal.
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 normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
Central Limit Theorem
The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes 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.
In this question, we have that:
[tex]\mu = 197.5, \sigma = 8.3[/tex]
a. Find the probability that an individual distance is greater than 210.9 cm
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 210.9. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{210.9 - 197.5}{8.3}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.61[/tex]
[tex]Z = 1.61[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9463.
1 - 0.9463 = 0.0537
5.37% probability that an individual distance is greater than 210.9 cm.
b. Find the probability that the mean for 15 randomly selected distances is greater than 196.00 cm.
Now [tex]n = 15, s = \frac{8.3}{\sqrt{15}} = 2.14[/tex]
This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 196. Then
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
By the Central Limit Theorem
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{196 - 197.5}{2.14}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.7[/tex]
[tex]Z = -0.7[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.2420.
1 - 0.2420 = 0.7580
75.80% probability that the mean for 15 randomly selected distances is greater than 196.00 cm.
c. Why can the normal distribution be used in part (b), even though the sample size does not exceed 30?
The underlying distribution(overhead reach distances of adult females) is normal, which means that the sample size requirement(being at least 30) does not apply.
Hotel 3 provides a 6 hour booking for 120 delegates in one room (including tea and lunch).how much would this cost?
Answer:
$3840
Step-by-step explanation:
The total cost is ...
(6 hr)(cost per hr) +(120 persons)(food cost per person)
= 6($190) +120($15 +7.50)
= $3840
The booking at Hotel 3 would cost $3840.

What is the answers?
Answer:
[tex]\frac{(x + 1)}{(x + 3)}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
If you ignore the 7x for the moment, you can see that the numerator can be factored into (x-5)(x+1), and the denominator can factored into (x-5)(x+3).
The (x+5)s can cancel out, so you are left with [tex]\frac{(x+1)}{(x+3)}[/tex] times [tex]\frac{7x}{7x}[/tex]. Since 7x/7x is just equal to 1, our final answer is (x+1)/(x+3).
Hope this helped! :)
Length of rectangle is three times bigger than the width. Area of rectangle is 27. A) find width of rectangle B) find length of rectangle C) find perimeter of rectangle.
What is the answer? I need help to solve it.
Answer:
Length: 9
Width: 3
Perimeter: 24
Step-by-step explanation:
First you can set up a few equations. You know that L x W is your area, or 27.
L * W = 27
Then you also know that your length is equal to three times the width.
L = 3W
So you can substitute L into the first equation to solve for W.
3W * W = 27
3W^2 = 27
W^2 = 9
W = 3
Then you can plug 3 into either equation to solve for your length.
L = 3(3)
L = 9
Then your perimeter is just 2L + 2W
2(9) + 2(3) = 24
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the dimensions of the rectangle be length = L and width = W. Then P = perimeter = 2L + 2W. A = area of rectangle = L * W. Finally, L = 3W.
Here A = 27 units^2 = W*(3W) = (3*W^2), or 3W^2 = 27 units^2, or
W^2 = 9 units^2, or W = 3 units. Then L = 3W = 3(3 units) = 9 units.
The length of the rectangle is 9 units. See above.
The perimeter of the rectangle is 2(9 units) + 2(3 units) = 24 units.
Consider the function below. (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.) f(x) = 1 2 x4 − 4x2 + 5 (a) Find the interval of increase. (Enter your answer using interval notation.) Find the interval of decrease. (Enter your answer using interval notation.) (b) Find the local minimum value(s). (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list.) Find the local maximum value(s). (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list.) (c) Find the inflection points.
Answer:
Please, read the answer below.
Step-by-step explanation:
You have the following function:
[tex]f(x)=12x^4-4x^2+5[/tex]
(a) To find the intervals of increase or decrease of f(x) you first calculate the derivative of f(x):
[tex]\frac{df}{dx}=\frac{d}{dx}[12x^4-4x^2+5]\\\\\frac{df}{dx}=12(4)x^3-4(2)x=48x^3-8x[/tex] (2)
Next, you equal the derivative to zero and obtain the roots of the obtained polynomial:
[tex]48x^3-8x=0\\\\6x^3-x=0\\\\x(6x^2-1)=0[/tex]
Then, you have the following roots for x:
[tex]x_1=0\\\\x_{2,3}=\pm \sqrt{\frac{1}{6}}[/tex] = ±0.40
Hence, there are three special points.
Next, you evaluate the derivative (expression (2)) for the x values close to the x1, x2 and x3. The values of the derivative give to us the value of the slope of a tangent line in that point, and so, if the function increases or decreases:
First interval, for a number lower than -0.40
[tex]48(-0.41)^3-8(-0.41)=-0.02<0[/tex]
The function decreases in the interval:
[tex](-\inft,-\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}})[/tex]
It is necessary that after x=-0.40 the function increases until the next special point, that is x=0. Then, the interval in which the function increases is:
[tex](-\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}},0)[/tex]
By symmetry, from the point x=0 until x=0.40 the function decreases.
[tex](0,\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}})[/tex]
Next, you evaluate the expression (2) for a number higher than 0.40:
[tex]48(0.41)^3-8(0.41)=0.02>0[/tex]
Then, the function increases for the following interval:
[tex](\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}},+\infty)[/tex]
(b) Due to the results obtained in the previous step you can conclude that the local minimum are:
[tex]x_{min}=-\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}\\\\x_{min}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}[/tex]
[tex]P_1(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}},f(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}))=P_1(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}},4.66)\\\\P_2(\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}},f(\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}}))=P_2(\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}},4.66)[/tex]
[tex]P_1(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}},0)\\\\P_2(\frac{1}{\sqrt{6}},0)[/tex]
(these are the point in which the function change of a decrease to an increase)
The same reason as before. There in one local maximum:
[tex]x_{max}=0[/tex]
[tex]P(0,f(0))=P(0,5)[/tex]
(c) The inflection points are calculated by using the second derivative:
[tex]\frac{d^2f}{dx^2}=144x^2-8=0\\\\x^2=\frac{8}{144}=\frac{1}{18}\\\\x=\pm \frac{1}{\sqrt{18}}[/tex]
Then , there are two inflection points , given by:
[tex]P_1(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{18}},f(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{18}}))=P_1(-\frac{1}{\sqrt{18}},4.82)\\\\P_2(\frac{1}{\sqrt{18}},f(\frac{1}{\sqrt{18}}))=P_2(\frac{1}{\sqrt{18}},4.82)[/tex]

It takes you 3/8 of a hour to walk 9/10 of a mile. How far can you walk in 2 hours?
Answer:
Velocity = distance / time
Velocity = (9/10) / (3/8)
Velocity = (9/10) * (8/3) = 72 / 30 =24 / 10 = 2.4 miles per hour
Therefore, you could walk 4.8 miles in 2 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:4.8 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
3/8 of an hour to walk 9/10 of a mile
2 hour to walk ____
Distance walked in 2hr=(2x9/10) ➗ 3/8
Distance walked in 2hr=18/10 ➗ 3/8
Distance walked in 2hr=18/10 x 8/3
Distance walked in 2hr=(18x8) ➗ (10x3)
Distance walked in 2hr=144 ➗ 30
Distance walked in 2hr=4.8 miles
There were 208 tickets purchased for a major league baseball game. The lower box tickets cost $12.50 and the upper box tickets cost $10.00. The total amount of money spent was $2187.50. How many of each kind of ticket were purchased?
Answer:
so 189(from 189.66) lower box tickets are sold and 18 upper box tickets are sold
Step-by-step explanation:
lets take "x" as the # of lower box tickets
and "y" as the number of upper box tickets
so in total the number of tickets sold was 208
so x+y=208
next, we know that each lower box ticket costs 12.50 and each upper box tickets costs 10 and the total amount of money spent was $2187.50 so:
12.5x+10y=2187.50
lets subtract "x" from both sides in first equation to find value of y
y=208-x
now substitute y in equation number 2:
12.5x-10(208-x)=2187.5
12.5x-2080+10x=2187.5
22.5x-2080=2187.5
22.5x=4267.5
x=189.666
so 189 tickets lower box tickets were purchased now, substitute 190 in equation 1 to find value of "y"
y=208-190
y=18
so 189(from 189.66) lower box tickets are sold and 18 upper box tickets are sold

In a random sample of 28 people, the mean commute time to work was 31.7 minutes and the standard deviation was 7.2 minutes. Assume the population is normally distributed and use a t-distribution to construct a 80% confidence interval for the population mean mu. What is the margin of error of mu? Interpret the results.
Answer:
a)The 80% of confidence interval for the Population 'μ' is
(29.9121 ,33.4879)
b) Margin of error of mean ' 'μ' is = 1.7879
Step-by-step explanation:
step(i):-
Given random sample 'n' =28
The mean of the sample x⁻ =31.7 min
The standard deviation of the sample's' =7.2
Step(ii):-
80% of confidence intervals:
The 80% of confidence interval for the Population 'μ' is determined by
[tex](x^{-} - t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} + t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } )[/tex]
Degrees of freedom
γ = n-1 = 28-1 =27
[tex]t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = t_{\frac{0.20}{2} } = t_{0.1} = 1.314[/tex]
The 80% of confidence interval for the Population 'μ' is determined by
[tex](x^{-} - t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } , x^{-} + t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } \frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } )[/tex]
[tex](31.7-1.314 X \frac{7.2}{\sqrt{28} } , 31.7+1.314 X\frac{7.2}{\sqrt{28} } )[/tex]
(31.7 -1.7879 , 31.7 +1.7879)
(29.9121 ,33.4879)
b)
Margin of error of mean is determined by
[tex]M.E = {\frac{t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]
[tex]M.E = {\frac{1.314 X 7.2}{\sqrt{28} } }[/tex]
Margin of error =1.7879
According to the Florida Agency for Workforce, the monthly average number of unemployment claims in a certain county is given by ????????(tt) = 24.31tt2 − 276.58tt + 2035, where t is the number of years after 1990. a) During what years did the number of claims decrease? b) Find the relative extrema and interpret it.
Answer:
a) The number of claims decrease from 1990 to 1996.
b) The relative extrema is a minimum and happens approximately in 1996 (t=5.688). This means the moment when the number of claims stop decreasing and start to increase.
Step-by-step explanation:
The monthly average number of unemployment claims in a certain county is given by:
[tex]C(t)=24.31t^2-276.58t+2035[/tex]
With t: number of years after 1990.
We have to determine in what years the number of claims decrease and the relative extreme value.
We can find this by analizing the first derivative.
When the first derivative is equal to zero, this indicates an extreme value, which can be a maximum or minimum.
When the first derivative is positive, it indicates that the function is increasing. On the contrary, when the first derivative is negative, it indicates that the function is decreasing.
The first derivative is:
[tex]\dfrac{dC}{dt}=24.31(2t)-276.58(1)+0\\\\\\\dfrac{dC}{dt}=48.62t-276.58[/tex]
Then, we can calculate the extreme value:
[tex]\dfrac{dC}{dt}=48.62t-276.58=0\\\\\\48.62t=276.58\\\\\\t=\dfrac{276.58}{48.62}=5.688\approx 6[/tex]
This extreme value happens for t=6 (year 1996).
If we calculate the value of the first derivative for t=5, that is previous to the extreme value, we can find if the function was increasing or decreasing:
[tex]\dfrac{dC}{dt}(5)=48.62*5-276.58=243.10-276.58=-33.48<0[/tex]
As the value is negative, we know that the number of claims was decreasing from t=0 to t=6 (from 1990 to 1996), and then reach a minimum and start to increase from them (from 1996 onwards).

Alexis bought a pyramid-like paperweight for her teacher. The paperweight has a volume of 200 cm3 and a density of 1.5 grams per cubic centimeter.
What formula you would you use to find the density of the paperweight?
How much does the paperweight weigh?
Answer:
The density is equal to the weight divided by the volume:
[tex]\rho=\dfrac{W}{V}[/tex]
The paperweight weights 300 grams.
Step-by-step explanation:
The density of the paperweight can be calculated knowing the weight and the volume of this paperweight.
The density is equal to the weight divided by the volume:
[tex]\rho=\dfrac{W}{V}[/tex]
We know that the density of this paperweight is 1.5 grams per cm3, and its volume is 200 cm3.
We can use the formula of the density to calculate the weight:
[tex]\rho=\dfrac{W}{V}\\\\\\W=\rho\cdot V=1.5\;\dfrac{g}{cm^3}\,\cdot\;200\; cm^3\\\\\\W=300\;g[/tex]
The paperweight weights 300 grams.

Pizza delivery times at Pizza Time are normally distributed with a mean time of 27 minutes and a standard deviation of 3 minutes. Approximately what percent of pizzas are delivered between 24 and 30 minutes? (2 points)
32%
689
09
99.75
Answer:
About 68% (is that an answer choice?)
Step-by-step explanation:
In a normal distribution (a bell curve), about 68 percent of the data is in the range between one standard deviation below the mean to one standard deviation above. If your mean is 27, and the standard deviation is 3, then one deviation below to one above would be 27 - 3 to 27 + 3, or 24 - 30.
