uppose that the walking step lengths of adult males are normally distributed with a mean of 2.8 feet and a standard deviation of 0.2 feet. A sample of 76 men’s step lengths is taken. Step 1 of 2 : Find the probability that an individual man’s step length is less than 2.5 feet. Round your answer to 4 decimal places, if necessary.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

.0668

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:

z=(x-average)/standard deviation

(2.5-2.8)/.2= -1.5

Go to a ztable and find the value for 1.5  (.9332) and take the compliment of this (we can do this because the normal distribution is symmetrical)

1-.9332= .0668

You play a game where you roll a single die. You pay $1 to play, and the payouts are $0.50 if you roll an
even number, $2 if you roll a 1, and $1 if you roll a 3 or 5. What are the odds for winning money if you play this game? Show your work and Explain.

Answers

Let W be the random variable representing your winnings from playing the game. Then

[tex]P(W=w)=\begin{cases}\text{prob. of rolling an even number}=\frac12&\text{if }w=\$0.50-\$1=-\$0.50\\\text{prob. of rolling a 1}=\frac16&\text{if }w=\$2-\$1=\$1\\\text{prob. of rolling 3 or 5}=\frac13&\text{if }w=\$1-\$1=\$0\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}[/tex]

In short, you have a 1/6 chance of profiting from the game, and a 5/6 chance of losing money. So the odds of winning are (1/6)/(5/6) = 1/5 or 1 to 5.

An ice cream store determines the cost of its sundaes by using the formula C = 0.50s + 0.35n + 0.25t, where C is the total cost in dollars, s is the number of scoops of ice cream, n is the number of scoops of nuts, and t is the number of liquid toppings. A Nutty Sundae costs $3.55. It has 3 scoops of nuts and 2 different liquid toppings. How many scoops of ice cream are in this sundae?

Answers

Answer:

4 scoops of ice cream

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in the total cost, number of scoops of nuts, and number of liquid toppings into the formula. Then, solve for s:

C = 0.50s + 0.35n + 0.25t

3.55 = 0.50s + 0.35(3) + 0.25(2)

3.55 = 0.50s + 1.05 + 0.5

3.55 = 0.50s + 1.55

2 = 0.50s

4 = s

So, the sundae had 4 scoops of ice cream.

Step-by-step explanation:

you need simple trigonometry to solve it

cosine of an angle is the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse

cos(42.2) is about 0.74

so X / Hypotenuse = 0.74

we know hypotenuse is 101 m

X / 101 = 0.74

x = 74.74 m

A geologist has collected 5 specimens of basaltic rock and 7 specimens of granite. The geologist instructs a laboratory assistant to randomly select 9 of the specimens for analysis.
Let X= the number of granite specimens selected for analysis.
Note: Take 10 decimal places after the ".", if the answer is a fraction, enter the fraction (a/b). Use a period (.) not a comma (,) for decimals.
a) Compute EX = ?; Var(X) = ?
b) Compute P(X<6) = ?
c) What is the probability that all specimens of one of the two types of rock are selected for analysis?
P(all specimens of one of the two types of rock are selected for analysis) = ?

Answers

The rocks are chosen without replacement, which means that the hypergeometric distribution is used to solve this question. First we get the parameters, and then we answer the questions. From this, we get that:

[tex]E(X) = 5.25, Var(X) = 0.5966[/tex]P(X < 6) = 0.9545P(all specimens of one of the two types of rock are selected for analysis) = 0.2046.

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x successes is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

In which:

x is the number of successes.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The mean and the variance are:

[tex]\mu = \frac{nk}{N}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma^2 = \frac{nk(N-k)(N-n)}{N^2(N-1)}[/tex]

We have that:

5 + 7 = 12 rocks, which means that [tex]N = 12[/tex]

9 are chosen, which means that [tex]n = 9[/tex]

7 are granite, which means that [tex]k = 7[/tex]

Question a:

[tex]E(X) = \mu = \frac{9\times7}{12} = 5.25[/tex]

[tex]Var(X) = \sigma^2 = \frac{9\times7(12-7)(12-9)}{12^2(12-1)} = 0.5966[/tex]

Thus:

[tex]E(X) = 5.25, Var(X) = 0.5966[/tex]

Question b:

Since there are only 5 specimens of basaltic rock, at least 9 - 5 = 4 specimens of granite are needed, which means that:

[tex]P(X < 6) = P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 4) = h(4,12,9,7) = \frac{C_{7,4}*C_{5,5}}{C_{12,9}} = 0.1591[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 5) = h(5,12,9,7) = \frac{C_{7,5}*C_{5,4}}{C_{12,9}} = 0.4773[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 6) = h(6,12,9,7) = \frac{C_{7,6}*C_{5,3}}{C_{12,9}} = 0.3181[/tex]

Thus

[tex]P(X < 6) = P(X = 4) + P(X = 5) + P(X = 6) = 0.1591 + 0.4773 + 0.3181 = 0.9545[/tex]

So P(X < 6) = 0.9545.

Question c:

5 of basaltic and 4 of granite: 0.1591 probability.

7 of granite is P(X = 7), in which

[tex]P(X = 7) = h(7,12,9,7) = \frac{C_{7,7}*C_{5,2}}{C_{12,9}} = 0.0455[/tex]

0.1591 + 0.0455 = 0.2046, thus:

P(all specimens of one of the two types of rock are selected for analysis) = 0.2046.

Ben consumes an energy drink that contains caffeine. After consuming the energy drink, the amount of caffeine in Ben's body decreases exponentially. The 10-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is 0.2722. What is the 5-hour growth/decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body

Answers

Answer:

The 5-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is of 0.1469.

Step-by-step explanation:

After consuming the energy drink, the amount of caffeine in Ben's body decreases exponentially.

This means that the amount of caffeine after t hours is given by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}[/tex]

In which A(0) is the initial amount and k is the decay rate, as a decimal.

The 10-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is 0.2722.

1 - 0.2722 = 0.7278, thus, [tex]A(10) = 0.7278A(0)[/tex]. We use this to find k.

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-kt}[/tex]

[tex]0.7278A(0) = A(0)e^{-10k}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-10k} = 0.7278[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-10k}} = \ln{0.7278}[/tex]

[tex]-10k = \ln{0.7278}[/tex]

[tex]k = -\frac{\ln{0.7278}}{10}[/tex]

[tex]k = 0.03177289938 [/tex]

Then

[tex]A(t) = A(0)e^{-0.03177289938t}[/tex]

What is the 5-hour growth/decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body?

We have to find find A(5), as a function of A(0). So

[tex]A(5) = A(0)e^{-0.03177289938*5}[/tex]

[tex]A(5) = 0.8531[/tex]

The decay factor is:

1 - 0.8531 = 0.1469

The 5-hour decay factor for the number of mg of caffeine in Ben's body is of 0.1469.

If f(x) = 2x + 2 is invertible, then its inverse is another function f ⁻¹(x) such that

f(f ⁻¹(x)) = 2 f ⁻¹(x) + 2 = x

Solve for f ⁻¹(x) :

2 f ⁻¹(x) + 2 = x

2 f ⁻¹(x) = x - 2

f ⁻¹(x) = (x - 2)/2 = x/2 - 1

Then when x = 4, we have f ⁻¹ (4) = 4/2 - 1 = 2 - 1 = 1.

The value of n is 18.75. To find the value of n, we need to solve the equation: 124n = 232 five

Let's first convert "232 five" into a numerical value:

"232 five" means 2325 (since five is in the units place).

Now, the equation becomes:

124n = 2325

To solve for n, divide both sides of the equation by 124:

n = 2325 / 124

Now, perform the division:

n = 18.75

So, the value of n is 18.75.

Shelly believes the honor roll students at her school have an unfair advantage in being assigned to the math class they request. She asked 500 students at her school the following questions: "Are you on the honor roll?" and "Did you get the math class you requested?" The results are shown in the table below:

Honor roll Not on honor roll Total
Received math class requested 125 215 340
Did not get math class requested 80 80 160
Total 205 295 500

Help Shelly determine if all students at her school have an equal opportunity to get into the math class they requested. Show your work, and explain your process for determining the fairness of the class assignment process.

Answers

Answer: No, there isn't equal opportunity

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

Explanation:

Let's define the two events

A = person is on the honor rollB = person got the math class they requested

From the table, we see that

P(B) = 340/500 = 0.68

meaning that there's a 68% chance of picking someone who got the class they wanted (i.e. 68% of the people got the class they wanted)

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

Now let's assume that the person is on the honor roll. This means we only focus on the "honor roll" column. There are 125 people here that got the class they wanted out of 205 honor roll students total.

So,

P(B given A) = 125/205 = 0.609756

which rounds to 0.61

This says that if a person is on the honor roll, then they have roughly a 61% chance of getting the class they want.

The chances have gone down from 68% to 61% roughly.

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

It appears that being on the honor roll does affect your chances of getting into the class you want.

Therefore, all students do not have the same equal opportunity.

We would need to have P(B) and P(A given B) to be the same exact value for true equal opportunity to happen.

All students do not have equal opportunity.

From the table, we have the following parameters:

205 people are on honor roll call340 people got the math class requested500 people were surveyed

The above means that:

The probability that a person is on honor roll call is:

p1 = 205/500

p1 = 0.41

The probability that a person got the math class requested

p2 = 340/500

p2 = 0.68

Both probabilities are not equal.

Hence, it is true that all students do not have equal opportunity.
