In a random sample of 40 refrigerators, the mean repair cost was $150. Assume the population standard deviation is $15.50. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the population mean repair cost. Then change the sample size to n = 60. Which confidence interval has the better estimate?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  ($143.69, $156.31)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval to estimate  population mean :

[tex]\overline{x}\ \pm z\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

, where [tex]\sigma[/tex] = population standard deviation

n= sample size

[tex]\overline{x}=[/tex] Sample mean

z= critical value.

As per given,

n= 40

[tex]\sigma[/tex] = $15.50

[tex]\overline{x}=[/tex] $150

Critical value for 99% confidence level = 2.576

Then, 99% confidence interval for the population mean:

[tex]150\pm(2.576)\dfrac{15.50}{\sqrt{40}}\\\\\Rightarrow\ 150\pm6.31 \ \ (approx)\\\\\Rightarrow(150-6.31,150+6.31)=(143.69,156.31)[/tex]

Hence, the required confidence interval : ($143.69, $156.31)

EXAMPLE 4 Find ∂z/∂x and ∂z/∂y if z is defined implicitly as a function of x and y by the equation x6 + y6 + z6 + 18xyz = 1. SOLUTION To find ∂z/∂x, we differentiate implicitly with respect to x, being careful to treat y as a constant:

Answers

Answer:

see attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

We differentiate implicitly with respect to x taking y as a constant and we differentiate implicitly with respect to y taking x as a constant.

[tex]\rm \dfrac{\partial z}{\partial x} = - \dfrac{(x^5 + 3yz)}{z^5 + x} \ \ and \ \ \dfrac{\partial z}{\partial y} &= - \dfrac{(y^5 + 3xz)}{z^5 + y}[/tex]

What is an implicit function?

When in a function the dependent variable is not explicitly isolated on either side of the equation then the function becomes an implicit function.

The equation is given as [tex]\rm x^6 + y^6 + z^6 + 18xyz = 1.[/tex]

Differentiate partially the function with respect to x treating y as a constant.

[tex]\begin{aligned} \dfrac{\partial}{\partial x} x^6 + y^6 + z^6 + 18xyz &= 0\\\\6x^5 + 0 + 6z^5 \dfrac{\partial z }{\partial x} + 18y(z + x\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial x}) &= 0\\\\x^5 + z^5 \dfrac{\partial z }{\partial x} + 3y(z + x\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial x}) &= 0\\\\\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial x} &= - \dfrac{(x^5 + 3yz)}{z^5 + x} \end{aligned}[/tex]

Similarly, differentiate partially the function with respect to y treating x as a constant.

[tex]\begin{aligned} \dfrac{\partial}{\partial y} x^6 + y^6 + z^6 + 18xyz &= 0\\\\ 0 + 6y^5+ 6z^5 \dfrac{\partial z }{\partial y} + 18x(z + y\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial y}) &= 0\\\\y^5 + z^5 \dfrac{\partial z }{\partial y} + 3x(z + y\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial y}) &= 0\\\\\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial y} &= - \dfrac{(y^5 + 3xz)}{z^5 + y} \end{aligned}[/tex]

Find the unknown side length, x. Write your answer in simplest radical form.
A. 3
B. 34
C. 6.
D. 41

Answers

Answer:

√41

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the sides with lengths 48 and 52 units, we would use Pythagoras theorem to find the third side. Let that side be t

52² = 48² + t²

t² = 52² - 48²

= 2704 - 2304

= 400

t = √400

= 20

Considering the next triangle with sides t (20 units) and 12 units, again using the theorem

20² = 12² + y²

where y is the third side

400 = 144 + y²

y² = 400 - 144

= 256

y = √256

= 16 units

Considering the triangle with two sides given as 5 and 13 units, the third side (which is part of the 16 units calculated earlier)

13² = 5² + u²

where u is the 3rd side

169 = 25 + u²

u² = 169 - 25

u² = 144

u = √144

u = 12

The other part of the side of that triangle

= 16 - 12

= 4

Considering the smallest triangle whose sides are x, 5 and 4,

x² = 5² + 4²

= 25 + 16

= 41

x = √41

What is the equation for the plane illustrated below?

Answers

Answer:

Hence, none of the options presented are valid. The plane is represented by [tex]3 \cdot x + 3\cdot y + 2\cdot z = 6[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation in rectangular form for a 3-dimension plane is represented by:

[tex]a\cdot x + b\cdot y + c\cdot z = d[/tex]

Where:

[tex]x[/tex], [tex]y[/tex], [tex]z[/tex] - Orthogonal inputs.

[tex]a[/tex], [tex]b[/tex], [tex]c[/tex], [tex]d[/tex] - Plane constants.

The plane presented in the figure contains the following three points: (2, 0, 0),  (0, 2, 0), (0, 0, 3)

For the determination of the resultant equation, three equations of line in three distinct planes orthogonal to each other. That is, expressions for the xy, yz and xz-planes with the resource of the general equation of the line:

xy-plane (2, 0, 0) and (0, 2, 0)

[tex]y = m\cdot x + b[/tex]

[tex]y_{1}[/tex], [tex]y_{2}[/tex] - Initial and final values for the dependent variable, dimensionless.

[tex]b[/tex] - x-Intercept, dimensionless.

If [tex]x_{1} = 2[/tex], [tex]y_{1} = 0[/tex], [tex]x_{2} = 0[/tex] and [tex]y_{2} = 2[/tex], then:

Slope

[tex]m = \frac{2-0}{0-2}[/tex]

[tex]m = -1[/tex]

x-Intercept

[tex]b = y_{1} - m\cdot x_{1}[/tex]

[tex]b = 0 -(-1)\cdot (2)[/tex]

[tex]b = 2[/tex]

The equation of the line in the xy-plane is [tex]y = -x+2[/tex] or [tex]x + y = 2[/tex], which is equivalent to [tex]3\cdot x + 3\cdot y = 6[/tex].

yz-plane (0, 2, 0) and (0, 0, 3)

[tex]z = m\cdot y + b[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{z_{2}-z_{1}}{y_{2}-y_{1}}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]m[/tex] - Slope, dimensionless.

[tex]y_{1}[/tex], [tex]y_{2}[/tex] - Initial and final values for the independent variable, dimensionless.

[tex]z_{1}[/tex], [tex]z_{2}[/tex] - Initial and final values for the dependent variable, dimensionless.

[tex]b[/tex] - y-Intercept, dimensionless.

If [tex]y_{1} = 2[/tex], [tex]z_{1} = 0[/tex], [tex]y_{2} = 0[/tex] and [tex]z_{2} = 3[/tex], then:

Slope

[tex]m = \frac{3-0}{0-2}[/tex]

[tex]m = -\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

y-Intercept

[tex]b = z_{1} - m\cdot y_{1}[/tex]

[tex]b = 0 -\left(-\frac{3}{2} \right)\cdot (2)[/tex]

[tex]b = 3[/tex]

The equation of the line in the yz-plane is [tex]z = -\frac{3}{2}\cdot y+3[/tex] or [tex]3\cdot y + 2\cdot z = 6[/tex].

xz-plane (2, 0, 0) and (0, 0, 3)

[tex]b[/tex] - z-Intercept, dimensionless.

If [tex]x_{1} = 2[/tex], [tex]z_{1} = 0[/tex], [tex]x_{2} = 0[/tex] and [tex]z_{2} = 3[/tex], then:

Slope

[tex]b = 0 -\left(-\frac{3}{2} \right)\cdot (2)[/tex]

[tex]b = 3[/tex]

The equation of the line in the xz-plane is [tex]z = -\frac{3}{2}\cdot x+3[/tex] or [tex]3\cdot x + 2\cdot z = 6[/tex]

After comparing each equation of the line to the definition of the equation of the plane, the following coefficients are obtained:

[tex]a = 3[/tex], [tex]b = 3[/tex], [tex]c = 2[/tex], [tex]d = 6[/tex]

Hence, none of the options presented are valid. The plane is represented by [tex]3 \cdot x + 3\cdot y + 2\cdot z = 6[/tex].

It is A    3x+3y+2z=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Answers

Answer:

y = 1.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 39).

Let the operation which defines the relation between a and b is O.

Relation between a and b has been given as,

a O b = [tex]\frac{(a+b)}{(a-b)}[/tex]

Following the same operation, relation between 3 and y will be,

3 O y = [tex]\frac{3+y}{3-y}[/tex]

Since 3 O y = 4,

[tex]\frac{3+y}{3-y}=4[/tex]

3 + y = 12 - 4y

3 + y + 4y = 12 - 4y + 4y

3 + 5y = 12

3 + 5y - 3 = 12 - 3

5y = 9

[tex]\frac{5y}{5}=\frac{9}{5}[/tex]

y = 1.8

Therefore, y = 1.8 will be the answer.

A table of values of a linear function is shown below. Find the output when the input is N. Type your answer in the space provide

Answers

Answer:

[tex] -3n - 7 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the linear function represented in the table above, to find what output an input "n" would give, we need to first find an equation that defines the linear function.

Using the slope-intercept formula, y = mx + b, let's find the equation.

Where,

m = the increase in output ÷ increase in input = [tex] \frac{-13 - (-10)}{2 - 1} [/tex]

[tex] m = \frac{-13 + 10}{1} [/tex]

[tex] m = \frac{-3}{1} [/tex]

[tex] m = -3 [/tex]

Using any if the given pairs, i.e., (1, -10), plug in the values as x and y in the equation formula to solve for b, which is the y-intercept

[tex] y = mx + b [/tex]

[tex] -10 = -3(1) + b [/tex]

[tex] -10 = -3 + b [/tex]

Add 3 to both sides:

[tex] -10 + 3 = -3 + b + 3 [/tex]

[tex] -7 = b [/tex]

[tex] b = -7 [/tex]

The equation of the given linear function can be written as:

[tex] y = -3x - 7 [/tex]

Or

[tex] f(x) = -3x - 7 [/tex]

Therefore, if the input is n, the output would be:

[tex] f(n) = -3n - 7 [/tex]

The winery sold 81 cases of wine this week. If twice
as many red cases were sold than white, how many
white cases were sold this week?


A. 32 cases
B. 61 cases
C. 27 cases
D. 54 cases​

Answers

Answer:

Option (C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the red cases sold = r

and the number of white cases sold = w

Total number of cases sold by the winery = 81

r + w = 81 -------(1)

If number of red cases sold is twice of white cases sold,

r = 2w ------- (2)

By substituting the value of r from equation (2) to equation (1),

2w + w = 81

3w = 81

w = 27 cases

From equation (1),

r + 27 = 81

r = 54 cases

Therefore, number of white cases sold are 27 cases

Option (C) is he answer.

Answers

Answer:

x + 1 - ( 4 / x³ + 3x² + 8 )

Step-by-step explanation:

If the volume of this rectangular prism ⇒ ( x⁴ + 4x³ + 3x² + 8x + 4 ), and the base area ⇒ ( x³ + 3x² + 8 ), we can determine the height through division of each. The general volume formula is the base area [tex]*[/tex] the height, but some figures have exceptions as they are " portions " of others. In this case the formula is the base area  [tex]*[/tex] height, and hence we can solve for the height by dividing the volume by the base area.

Height = ( x⁴ + 4x³ + 3x² + 8x + 4 ) / ( x³ + 3x² + 8 ) = [tex]\frac{x^4+4x^3+3x^2+8x+4}{x^3+3x^2+8}[/tex] = [tex]x+\frac{x^3+3x^2+4}{x^3+3x^2+8}[/tex] = [tex]x+1+\frac{-4}{x^3+3x^2+8}[/tex] = [tex]x+1-\frac{4}{x^3+3x^2+8}[/tex] - and this is our solution.

Hello,

I would recommend that you checked the answers I have already provided as this is the same method for all these questions, and maybe try to solve this one before you check the solution.

At the beginning the area is 2100

After one year the area will be

   2100*(1-3.5%)=2100*0.965

After n years the area will be

   [tex]2100\cdot0.965^n[/tex]

So after 5 years the area will be

   [tex]2100\cdot0.965^5=1757.34027...[/tex]

So rounded to the nearest square kilometer is 1757

Graph y less than or equal to 3x

Answers

Answer:

See Image Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Shaded region is the area of numbers that this equation satisfies.

Answer:

Please see attached image

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to graph the inequality, start from plotting the boundary line defined by the equality;

y = 3 x

You just need two points to accomplish such. so let's use two simple values for x and find what the y-values are:

for x = 0 then y = 3 (0) = 0

for x = 1 then y = 3 (1) = 3

Then use the points (0, 0) and (1, 3) to plot the boundary line.

After this, grab any point on the plane either clearly above the boundary line, or clearly below it and check if the inequality satisfies. For example, you can pick the point (3, 0) which is on the x line, 3 units to the right of the origin, and clearly below the boundary line we just plot.

When you use it in the inequality, you get:

(0)  [tex]\leq[/tex] 3 (3)

0   [tex]\leq[/tex] 9

which is a true statement, therefore, the points below the boundary lie are also solutions of the inequality.

Then the solution consists of all the points in the boundary line we just plotted (and indicated by drawing a solid line), plus all the points below the line, as depicted in the attached image.

QUESTION 4 (10 MARKS)
A retired couple requires an annual return of $2,000 from investment of $20,000. There are 3
options available:
(A) Treasury Bills yielding 9%;
(B) Corporate bonds 11%;
(C) Junk Bonds, 13%
How much should be invested in each to achieve their goal? Give 3 sets of options that can
achieve their goal.[10 Marks]​

Answers

Answer:

A. $22,223

B. $20,000

C. $20,000

Explanation:

The annual return of the retired couple's investment is called the yield in percentage.

A. If they go for Treasury bills which has a yield of 9%, to attain a return of at least $2,000 their investment must exceed $20,000. 9% of 22,223 = $2,000.07

B. . If they go for Corporate bonds option which has a yield of 11%, to attain a return of at least $2,000; 11% of 20,000 = $2,200

C. . If they go for Junk bonds option which has a yield of 13%, to attain annual return of at least $2,000; 13% of $20,000= $2,600

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (3,6) and has a slope of 4/3

Answers

Answer:

y = 4/3x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the slope intercept form of the equation

y = mx+b

Where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y= 4/3 x +b

Substitute the point into the equation

6 = 4/3(3) +b

6 = 4 +b

Subtract 4 from each side

2 = b

y = 4/3x+2

Intelligence quotients​ (IQs) measured on the Stanford Revision of the Binet Simon Intelligence Scale are normally distributed with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 16. Determine the percentage of people who have an IQ between 115 and 140.

Answers

Answer:

the percentage of people who have an IQ between 115 and 140 is 16.79%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

We are to  determine the percentage of people who have an IQ between 115 and 140.

i.e

P(115 < X < 140) = P( X  ≤ 140) - P( X  ≤ 115)

[tex]P(115 < X < 140) = P( \dfrac{X-100}{\sigma}\leq \dfrac{140-100}{16})-P( \dfrac{X-100}{\sigma}\leq \dfrac{115-100}{16})[/tex]

[tex]P(115 < X < 140) = P( Z\leq \dfrac{140-100}{16})-P( Z\leq \dfrac{115-100}{16})[/tex]

[tex]P(115 < X < 140) = P( Z\leq \dfrac{40}{16})-P( Z\leq \dfrac{15}{16})[/tex]

[tex]P(115 < X < 140) = P( Z\leq 2.5)-P( Z\leq 0.9375)[/tex]

[tex]P(115 < X < 140) = P( Z\leq 2.5)-P( Z\leq 0.938)[/tex]

From Z tables :

[tex]P(115 < X < 140) = 0.9938-0.8259[/tex]

[tex]P(115 < X < 140) = 0.1679[/tex]

Thus; we can conclude that the percentage of people who have an IQ between 115 and 140 is 16.79%

Using the normal distribution, it is found that 82.02% of people who have an IQ between 115 and 140.

Normal Probability Distribution

In a normal distribution 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]

It 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, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem:

The mean is of [tex]\mu = 100[/tex].The standard deviation is of [tex]\sigma = 15[/tex].

The proportion of people who have an IQ between 115 and 140 is the p-value of Z when X = 140 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 115, hence:

X = 140:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{140 - 100}{16}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.5[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9938.

X = 115:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{115 - 100}{16}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.94[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.94[/tex] has a p-value of 0.1736.

0.9938 - 0.1736 = 0.8202.

0.8202 = 82.02% of people who have an IQ between 115 and 140.

In a certain lake, trout average 12 in. in length with standard deviation 2.75 in. and the bass average 4 lb. in weight with standard deviation 0.8 lb. If Deion caught an 18-in trout and Keri caught a 6-lb bass, which fish was the better catch?

Answers

Answer:

The bass fish was the better catch

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  population mean for trout is  [tex]\mu_1 = 12 \ in[/tex]

     The  standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma_1 = 2.75 \ in[/tex]

      The  population mean for  base  is  [tex]\mu _2 = 4 \ lb[/tex]

      The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma_2 = 0.8 \ lb[/tex]

      The number of  trout caught   [tex]x_1 = 18[/tex]

     The number of  bass caught  [tex]x_2 = 6[/tex]

Generally z-value(standardized value ) for the of number  trout caught  is mathematically represented as

        [tex]z_1 = \frac{x_1 - \mu_1}{\sigma_1 }[/tex]

substituting value

       [tex]z_1 = \frac{18 - 12}{2.75 }[/tex]

       [tex]z_1 = 2.18[/tex]

Generally z-value(standardized value ) for the of number  bass caught  is mathematically represented as

        [tex]z_2 = \frac{x_2 - \mu_2}{\sigma_2 }[/tex]

substituting value

       [tex]z_2 = \frac{6 - 4}{0.8 }[/tex]

       [tex]z_2 = 2.5[/tex]

From our calculation we see that  [tex]z_2 > z_1[/tex]

The  fish that was the better catch is the bass fish

A city has a population of 240,000 people. Suppose that each year the population grows by 7.75%. What will the population be after 7 years?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{\sf \ \ \ 404,699 \ \ \ }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

At the beginning the population is 240,000

After 1 year the population will be

   240,000*(1+7.75%)=240,000*1.0775

After n years the population will be

   [tex]240,000\cdot1.0775^n[/tex]

So after 7 years the population will be

   [tex]240,000\cdot1.0775^7=404699.058...[/tex]

So rounded to the nearest whole number gives 404,699

Hope this helps
