The scores on a psychology exam were normally distributed with a mean of 69 and a standard deviation of 4. What is the standard score for an exam score of 68​?

The standard score is ?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean score, μ = 69

Standard deviation, σ = 4

Score, x = 64

The standardized score, Zscore can be obtained using the formular :

Zscore = (x - μ) / σ

Zscore = (69 - 68) / 4

Zscore = 1 / 4

Zscore = 0.25

The population of watesville decreases at a rate of 1.6% each year if the population was 62,500 in 2015 what will it be in 2021

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to first find the model for this particular situation, knowing that this is an exponential decay problem. The main equation for exponential growth/decay (as far as population goes for our problem) is

[tex]y=a(b)^x[/tex] where a is the initial population, b is the rate of decrease in the population which can also be written as (1 - r), y is the population after a certain amount of time, x, goes by. We will let year 2015 = 0 so year 2021 can = 6. This keeps our numbers lower and doesn't change the answer!

Our initial population in the year x = 0 is 62500. Our rate of decay is

(1 - .016) so our b value is .984

Filling in to find our model:

[tex]y=62500(.984)^x[/tex]

Now we can use that model and sub in a 6 for x to find the population in the year 2021:

[tex]y=62500(.984)^6[/tex] and

y = 62500(.9077590568) so

y = 56734.9 or, rounded to the nearest person, 56735

Test H0 : p=0.2 vs Ha : p≠0.2 using the sample results p^=0.27 with n=1003
Round your answer for the test statistic to two decimal places, and your answer for the p-value to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The value of teh test statistic is [tex]z = 5.54[/tex]

The p-value of the test is 0 < 0.05, which means that there is significant evidence to conclude that the proportion differs from 0.2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.2 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.2, \sigma = \sqrt{0.2*0.8} = 0.4[/tex]

Using the sample results p^=0.27 with n=1003

This means that [tex]X = 0.27, n = 1003[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{0.27 - 0.2}{\frac{0.4}{\sqrt{1003}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = 5.54[/tex]

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability that the sample proportion differs from 0.2 by at least 0.07, which is P(|z| > 5.54), that is, 2 multiplied by the p-value of z = -5.54.

Looking at the z-table, z = -5.54 has a p-value of 0.

2*0 = 0.

The p-value of the test is 0 < 0.05, which means that there is significant evidence to conclude that the proportion differs from 0.2.

Round 0.485 to the nearest hundredth

Answers

Decimals start at tenths, then hundredths, then thousandths, and so on. When we round, we look at the place value that is one smaller than the one we want to round to.

So, let's take a look at the thousandths place in 0.485. The value in the thousandths place is 5. When rounding, if the value is 5 or over we round up and if the value is 4 or lower we round down. Since the value in the thousandths place is 5, we will round the hundredths place up one.

0.485 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 0.49

A courier service company wishes to estimate the proportion of people in various states that will use its services. Suppose the true proportion is 0.06. If 235 are sampled, what is the probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by greater than 0.04

Answers

Answer:

0.0098 = 0.98% probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by greater than 0.04

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]

Suppose the true proportion is 0.06.

This means that [tex]p = 0.06[/tex]

235 are sampled

This means that [tex]n = 235[/tex]

Mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\mu = p = 0.06[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.06*0.94}{235}} = 0.0155[/tex]

What is the probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by greater than 0.04?

Proportion below 0.06 - 0.04 = 0.02 or above 0.06 + 0.04 = 0.1. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are equal, which means that we can find one of them and multiply by 2.

Probability the proportion is below 0.02.

p-value of Z when X = 0.02. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{0.02 - 0.06}{0.0155}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.58[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.58[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0049.

2*0.0049 = 0.0098

0.0098 = 0.98% probability that the sample proportion will differ from the population proportion by greater than 0.04

A small radio transmitter broadcasts in a 69 mile radius. If you drive along a straight line from a city 93 miles north of the transmitter to a second city 78 miles east of the transmitter, during how much of the drive will you pick up a signal from the transmitter?

Answers

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

We have A small radio transmitter that broadcasts in a 69-mile radius. If you drive along a straight line from a city 93 miles north of the transmitter to a second city 78 miles east of the transmitter.

Thus,

The distance that you get reception is the length of the chord created by the intersection of the circle defining the edge of transmission and the line defining the car trip.

 x2 + y2 = 69²               this is the circle

And,

The Transmitter at the origin

City to the north at (0,93)  & City to the east at (78,0)  

the Slope is M=(-93/78)

Intercept is B= y - mx ⇒  93 - (-93/78)(0) = 93

The equation of the line between the cities is y = (-93/78)x + 93

y = -93x/78 + 93           this is the line

Now, Solve the above two Equations

The intersection is gotten from the picture or solving:

x^2 + [(-93/78)*x + 93]^2 = 69^2

on solving we get, the points approximately are: (67.952,11.98 ) and (23.6277, 64.82)

Now,

From the Pythagorean theorem the total distance of the trip is:  

d1 = √(93^2 + 78^2) ≈ 121.37miles  

And the distance when the signal is picked up is:

d2 =√ [(67.952-23.627)^2 + (64.82 - 11.98)^2] ≈ 68.96 miles

You will pick up a signal from the transmitter in (d2/d1)*100 = 56% of the drive.

So, we have:

[tex]WX = \sqrt{(-2- 2)^2 + (4-4)^2 } =4[/tex]

[tex]XY = \sqrt{(2- 1)^2 + (4--1)^2 } =\sqrt{26}[/tex]

[tex]YZ = \sqrt{(1- -3)^2 + (-1--1)^2 } =4[/tex]

[tex]ZW = \sqrt{(-3--2)^2 + (-1-4)^2 } =\sqrt{26}[/tex]

So, the perimeter (P) is:

Answers

Answer:

The level of significance is the

b. maximum allowable probability of Type I error.

Step-by-step explanation:

The significance level provides the maximum probability of rejecting the null hypothesis when it is true.  It is the same as a type I error (also known as false-positive).  This error occurs when a researcher or investigator rejects a true null hypothesis that is supposed to be accepted.  It is the opposite of a type II error (false-negative), which occurs when the researcher fails to reject a false null hypothesis.

The sample statistic that must have changed after the correction was made is mean. Because mean is based on all the observation in the data. So changing any value in the data will impact mean.

Changing the highest salary in the data will have no impact on median because median lies at the center of data.

Changing the highest salary in the data will have no impact on mode because mode is the most frequently occurring value in the data.

Changing the highest salary in the data will have no impact on minimum because minimum is the smallest value in the data.
