In a manufacturing plant, a work center is a specific production facility that consists of one or more people and or machines and is treated as one unit for the purposes of capacity requirements planning and job scheduling. If the jobs arriveat a particular work center at a faster rate than they depart, the work center impedes the overall production process and is referred to as a bottleneck. This sample was collected by an operations manager for use in investigating a potential bottleneck work center. There are 315 hours in the work week when items can come into the work center. The manager selects every 15th hour and counts how many items come into the work center during that hour. What type of sample is this?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Systematic sampling

Step-by-step explanation:

Systematic sampling is a sampling technique in which the first sample selection is a random selection but other subsequent selection of samples occurs within a fixed sampling interval. The determination of this interval is based on the division of the population size by sample size.

Let assume that, our first random selection is [tex]i^{th}[/tex] unit, then the other fixed selection occurs at a fixed sampling interval of k.

Therefore, using systematic sampling method, the sampling unit will be every [tex]k^{th}[/tex] unit after the [tex]i^{th}[/tex] unit.

From  the question given:

We notice that the manager selects a sampling unit every 15th  hour. This tells us that he is taking the sampling unit by the usage of a fixed time interval.

Hence, this appears to be a systematic sample.

If a person walks 1/4 mile in 10 minutes, how far will that person walk in one hour?

Answers

Answer:

1.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5 miles

Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, the person will walk 60/10 = 6 times as much in 1 hour. If that person can walk 1/4 mile in 10 minutes, she will walk (1/4)*6 = 1.5 miles in 1 hour.

Answer:

1 and 1/2 mile

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation would be 1/4 times 6/1 because 60 divided by 10 is 6

1/4 times 6/1 is 6/4

simplified the answer is 1 and 1/2

Answer: C) 12

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

Explanation:

Refer to the diagram below. I'm using the points A,B,C,D,E to help label the triangles, and to label the angles as well.

For now, let's focus on triangle DEC.

The top most angle is given as D = 65. Note how the angles D and E are opposite the congruent lines (marked with the red single tickmarks). This means that angles D and E are congruent to one another. So E = 65 as well. This is shown in the diagram below.

For now we don't know what angle C is, so we'll call it y. More specifically, we'll make y the measure of angle DCE.

For any triangle, the three angles always add to 180

y+65+65 = 180

y+130 = 180

y = 180-130

y = 50

So angle DCE is 50 degrees.

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

Now we move onto triangle ABC.

Because angles DCE and ACB are vertical angles, this makes angle ACB 50 degrees also. Effectively, anywhere you see a 'y' in the diagram below, replace it with 50.

So triangle ABC has the three angles y = 50, y = 50 and 7x-4

We can solve for x like so

y+y+(7x-4) = 180

50+50+(7x-4) = 180

7x+96 = 180

7x = 180-96

7x = 84

x = 84/7

x = 12

This points to choice C as the final answer.

Answers

Answer:

Abstract

We give a recursion formula to generate all the equivalence classes of connected graphs with coefficients given by the inverses of the orders of their groups of automorphisms. We use an algebraic graph representation to apply the result to the enumeration of connected graphs, all of whose biconnected components have the same number of vertices and edges. The proof uses Abel’s binomial theorem and generalizes Dziobek’s induction proof of Cayley’s formula.

Required information Skip to question A die (six faces) has the number 1 painted on two of its faces, the number 2 painted on three of its faces, and the number 3 painted on one of its faces. Assume that each face is equally likely to come up. If the die were loaded so that the face with the 3 on it were twice as likely to come up as each of the other five faces, would this change the value of P(odd number)

Answers

Answer:

The change to the face 3 affects the value of P(Odd Number)

Step-by-step explanation:

Analysing the question one statement at a time.

Before the face with 3 is loaded to be twice likely to come up.

The sample space is:

[tex]S = \{1,1,2,2,2,3\}[/tex]

And the probability of each is:

[tex]P(1) = \frac{n(1)}{n(s)}[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = \frac{2}{6}[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]P(2) = \frac{n(2)}{n(s)}[/tex]

[tex]P(2) = \frac{3}{6}[/tex]

[tex]P(2) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]P(3) = \frac{n(3)}{n(s)}[/tex]

[tex]P(3) = \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

P(Odd Number) is then calculated as:

[tex]P(Odd\ Number) = P(1) + P(3)[/tex]

[tex]P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{2+1}{6}[/tex]

[tex]P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{3}{6}[/tex]

[tex]P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

After the face with 3 is loaded to be twice likely to come up.

The sample space becomes:

[tex]S = \{1,1,2,2,2,3,3\}[/tex]

The probability of each is:

[tex]P(1) = \frac{n(1)}{n(s)}[/tex]

[tex]P(1) = \frac{2}{7}[/tex]

[tex]P(2) = \frac{n(2)}{n(s)}[/tex]

[tex]P(2) = \frac{3}{7}[/tex]

[tex]P(3) = \frac{n(3)}{n(s)}[/tex]

[tex]P(3) = \frac{1}{7}[/tex]

[tex]P(Odd\ Number) = P(1) + P(3)[/tex]

[tex]P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{2}{7} + \frac{1}{7}[/tex]

Take LCM

[tex]P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{2+1}{7}[/tex]

[tex]P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{3}{7}[/tex]

Comparing P(Odd Number) before and after

[tex]P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{1}{2}[/tex] --- Before

[tex]P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{3}{7}[/tex] --- After

We can conclude that the change to the face 3 affects the value of P(Odd Number)

In a college of exactly 2920 students, exactly 55 % are male. What is the number of female students?

Answers

Answer:

1305 female students

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. of students = 2900

Percentage of students male = 55%

No. of students male = 55% of 2900

                                 = 55/100*2900

                                 = 1595

No. of female students = 2900 - 1595 = 1305

Answer:

1314

Step-by-step explanation:

First I found the number of male students

[tex]\frac{x}{2920} =\frac{55}{100} \\\\160600=100x\\1606=x[/tex]

Then I subtracted the number of male students from the number of total students
