The Orchard Cafe has found that about 15% of the diners who make reservations don't show up. If 77 reservations have been made, how many diners can be expected to show up? Find the standard deviation of this distribution

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

65 dinners are expected to show up

The standard deviation of the distribution is 3.13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Proportion = 15%

Population = 77

Required

Expected Number that'll show up

Standard Deviation

If 15% won't show up; then

100% - 15% = 85% will show up

Expected Number, E(x) of Dinner is calculated as thus;

[tex]E(x) = np[/tex]

Where [tex]p = 85\%[/tex] (calculated above)

and [tex]n = 77[/tex]

Convert p to decimal

[tex]p = 0.85[/tex]

So;

[tex]E(x) = 0.85 * 77[/tex]

[tex]E(x) = 65.45[/tex]

[tex]E(x) = 65[/tex]

65 dinners are expected to show up

Calculating Standard Deviation, SD

Standard Deviation is calculated as;

[tex]SD = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Substitute 0.85 for p and 77 for n

[tex]SD = \sqrt{77 * 0.85 * (1-0.85)}[/tex]

[tex]SD = \sqrt{77 * 0.85 * 0.15}[/tex]

[tex]SD = \sqrt{9.8175}[/tex]

[tex]SD = 3.13328900678[/tex]

[tex]SD = 3.13[/tex] (Approximated)

The standard deviation of the distribution is 3.13

A data set is summarized in the frequency table below. Using the table, determine the number of values less than or equal to 6.

Answers

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the above table of the data set, the number of values less than or equal to 6 would be the sum of the frequencies of all values that is equal to or less than 6.

From the table above, we would add up the frequencies of the values of 6 and below, which is:

2 + 3 + 6 + 4 + 3 = 18

Answer = 18

The number of values less than or equal to 6 is 18

Calculation of the number of values:

Here the number of values should be less than or equivalent to 6 represent the sum of the frequencies i.e. equal or less than 6

So, here the number of values should be

= 2 + 3 + 6 + 4 + 3

= 18

Hence, we can conclude that  The number of values less than or equal to 6 is 18

Reflection Over Parallel Lines Please complete the attached reflection. Thanks!

Answers

Answer: A(3, -5)

B(6, -2)

C(9, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a point (x, y), and we do a reflection over the axis y = a, then the only thing that will change in our point is the value of x.

Now, the distance between x and a must remain constant before and after the reflection.

so if x - a = d

then the new position of the point will be:

(a - d, y) = (2a - x, y).

I will use that relationship for the 3 points

A)

We start with the point (1, -5)

The reflection over y = -1 leaves.

The distance between 1 and -1 is = 1 - (-1) = 2.

Then the new point is (-1 - 2, -5) = (-3, -5)

Now we do a reflection over y = 1, so D = -3 - 1 = -2

Then the new point is:

A = (1 -(-2), -5) = (3, -5)

B) (2, -2)

Reflection over y = -1.

distance, d = 2 - (-1) = 3

the point is (-1 - 3, -2) = (-4, -2)

Now, a reflection over y = 1.

The distance is D = -4 - 1 = -5

The new point is (1 - (-5), 2) = (6, -2)

C) (5, -2)

reflection over y = -1

Distance: D = 5 - ( - 1) = 6

New point: (-1 - 6, -2) = (-7, -2)

Reflection over y = 1.

Distance D = -7 - 1 = -8

New point ( 1 - (-8), -2) = (9, -2)

At the city museum, child admission is $ 5.30 and adult admission is $ 9.40 . On Sunday, three times as many adult tickets as child tickets were sold, for a total sales of $ 1206.00 . How many child tickets were sold that day?

Answers

Answer:

36 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

At a city museum, child tickets are sold for $5.30, and adult tickets are sold for $9.40

The total sales that were made are $1206

Let x represent the number of child tickets that were sold

Let y represent the number of adult tickets that was sold

5.30x +9.40y= 1206

The number of adult tickets sold was three times greater than the child tickets

y= 3x

Substitute 3x for y in the equation

5.30x + 9.40y= 1206

5.30x + 9.40(3x)= 1206

5.30x + 28.2x= 1206

33.5x= 1206

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 33.5

33.5x/33.5= 1206/33.5

x = 36

Hence the number of child tickets that were sold that day is 36 tickets

Suppose that f(x,y) is a smooth function and that its partial derivatives have the values, fx(8,5)=2 and fy(8,5)=2. Given that f(8,5)=−2, use this information to estimate the value of f(9,6).

Answers

Answer:

f(9,6) = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know df = (df/dx)dx + (df/dy)dy

From the question, df/dx = fx(8,5) = 2 and df/dy = fy(8,5) = 2

Since we need to find f(9,6) and f(8,5) = -2

dx = 9 - 8 = 1 and dy = 6 - 5 = 1

f(9,6) = f(8,5) + df

df = (df/dx)dx + (df/dy)dy

df = fx(8,5)dx + fy(8,5)dy

Substituting the values of fx(8,5) = 2, fy(8,5) = 2, dx = 1 and dy = 1

df = 2 × 1 + 2 × 1

df = 2 + 2

df = 4

f(9,6) = f(8,5) + df

substituting the value of df  and f(8,5) into the equation, we have

f(9,6) = -2 + 4

f(9,4) = 2

The value of f(9,6) = 2

Rewrite the equation in =+AxByC form. Use integers for A, B, and C. =−y6−6+x4

Answers

Answer:

6x + y = -18

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is,

y - 6 = -6(x + 4)

We have to rewrite this equation in the form of Ax + By = C

Where A, B and C are the integers.

By solving the given equation,

y - 6 = -6x - 24 [Distributive property]

y - 6 + 6 = -6x - 24 + 6 [By adding 6 on both the sides of the equation]

y = -6x - 18

y + 6x = -6x + 6x - 18

6x + y = -18

Here A = 6, B = 1 and C = -18.

Therefore, 6x + y = -18 will be the equation.

Explain the connection between the chain rule for differentiation and the method of u-substitution for integration.

Answers

Answer:

Chain rule: [tex]\frac{d}{dx} [f[u(x)]] = \frac{df}{du} \cdot \frac{du}{dx}[/tex], u-Substitution: [tex]f\left[u(x)\right] = \int {\frac{df }{du} } \, du[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Differentiation and integration are reciprocal to each other. The chain rule indicate that a composite function must be differentiated, describing an inductive approach, whereas u-substitution allows integration by simplifying the expression in a deductive manner. That is:

[tex]\frac{d}{dx} [f[u(x)]] = \frac{df}{du} \cdot \frac{du}{dx}[/tex]

Let integrate both sides in terms of x:

[tex]f[u(x)] = \int {\frac{df}{du} \frac{du}{dx} } \, dx[/tex]

[tex]f\left[u(x)\right] = \int {\frac{df }{du} } \, du[/tex]

This result indicates that f must be rewritten in terms of u and after that first derivative needs to be found before integration.

If a person with a height of 58 inches takes 2,601 steps per mile, a person with a height of 64 inches takes 2,357 steps per mile, and a person with a height of 76 inches takes 1,985 steps per mile, what is the average number of steps of three 58-inch people, five 64-inch people, and two 76-inch people. Afterwards, find the weighted average number of steps. How does the average compare with the weighted average? Which value is a more accurate representation of the data?

Answers

Answer:

1. Average Number of Steps of

= Total of the different steps /  divided by 3

= 6,943/3

= 2,314.3 steps

2. Weighted Average Number of Steps of 3, 58-inch, 5, 64-inc, and 2, 76-inch people

= Total steps by the 10 people divided by 10

= 23,558/10

= 2,355.8 steps

3. The difference is not much.

4. The weighted average (2,355.8 steps) is a more accurate representation of the data.  The calculation of the ordinary average steps is more confusing than the weighted average steps.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Calculation of the Weighted Average Number of Steps of:

3, 58-inch people = 3 x 2,601 =   7,803

5, 64-inch people = 5 x 2,357 = 11,785

2, 76-inch people = 2 x 1,985 =  3,970

10 persons' total steps = 23,558

2. Calculation of the ordinary average:

58-inch people =  2,601

64-inch people =  2,357

76-inch people =  1,985

Total steps           6,943

A company studied the number of lost-time accidents occurring at its Brownsville, Texas, plant. Historical records show that 8% of the employees suffered lost-time accidents last year. Management believes that a special safety program will reduce such accidents to 4% during the current year. In addition, it estimates that 15% of employees who had lost-time accidents last year will experience a lost-time accident during the current year.
a. What percentage of the employees will experience lost-time accidents in both years?
b. What percentage of the employees will suffer at least one lost-time accident over the two-year period?

Answers

Answer:

a) percentage of the employees that will experience lost-time accidents in both years = 1.2%

b) percentage of the employees that will suffer at least one lost-time accident over the two-year period = 10.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

given

percentage of lost time accident last year

P(L) = 8% = 0.08 of the employees

percentage of lost time accident current year

P(C) = 4% = 0.04 of the employees

P(C/L) = 15% = 0.15

using the probability

P(L ∩ C) = P(C/L) × P(L)

= 0.08 × 0.15 = 0.012 = 1.2%

percentage of the employees will experience lost-time accidents in both years = 1.2%

b) Using the probability of the event

P(L ∪ C) = P(L) + P(C) - P(L ∩ C)

= 0.08 + 0.04 -0.012 = 0.108 = 10.8%

percentage of the employees will suffer at least one lost-time accident over the two-year period = 10.8%

Is 6/16 greater or less than 4/10

Answers

Answer:

Less than 4/10

Step-by-step explanation:

First lets convert both fractions to a common denominator:

16 and 10 can both go into 80 equally.

Now lets convert the fractions so they have a denominator of 80:

(6/16)    *5  = 30/80

(4/10)    *8 = 32/80

we can multiply the fractions to get just the numerator   (*80)

Now compare 30 to 32.  As you can see 32 is greater meaning that 6/16 is less that 4/10.

Suppose that Vera wants to test the hypothesis that women make less money than men doing the same job. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the median weekly earnings for men in the professional and related occupation sector in 2015 was $1343. Vera collected median weekly earnings data for women in 2015 from a random subset of 18 positions in the professional and related occupation sector. The following is the sample data. $1811, $728, $1234, $966, $953, $1031, $990, $633, $796, $1325, $1448, $1125, $1144, $1082, $1145, $1256, $1415, $1170 Vera assumes that the women's median weekly earnings data is normally distributed, so she decides to perform a t-test at a significance level of α = 0.05 to test the null hypothesis, H0:µ=1343H0:μ=1343 against the alternative hypothesis, H1:µ<1343H1:μ<1343 , where µμ is the population mean. If the requirements for performing a t-test have not been met, only answer the final question. Otherwise, answer all five of the following questions. First, compute the mean, x⎯⎯⎯x¯ , of Vera's sample. Report your answer with two decimals of precision.

Answers

Answer:

There is sufficient evidence to conclude that women make less money than men doing the same job.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis for the test can be explained as follows:

H₀: Women does not make less money than men doing the same job, i.e. [tex]\mu\geq \$1343[/tex].

Hₐ: Women make less money than men doing the same job, i.e. [tex]\mu<\$1343[/tex].

From the provided data compute the sample mean and standard deviation:

[tex]\bar x=\frac{1}{n}\sum X=\frac{1}{18}[1811+728+...+1170]=1125.11\\\\s=\sqrt{\frac{1}{n-1}\sum (X-\bar x)^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{1}{18-1}\times 1322541.86}=278.92[/tex]

Compute the test statistic as follows:

[tex]t=\frac{\bar x-\mu}[\s/\sqrt{n}}=\frac{1125.11-1343}{278.92/\sqrt{18}}=-3.143[/tex]

The test statistic value is -3.143.

Compute the p-value as follows:

[tex]p-value=P(t_{n-1}<-3.143)=P(t_{17}<-3.143)=0.003[/tex]

*Use a t-table.

The p-value of the test is 0.003.

The p-value of the test is very small for all the commonly used significance level. The null hypothesis will be rejected.

Conclusion:

There is sufficient evidence to conclude that women make less money than men doing the same job.

The relationship between Sara's speed and the time it takes her to get to her parent's house will be s = 120/t so option (A) will be correct.

What are work and time?

Work is the completion of any task for example if you have done your homework in 5 hours then you have done 5 hours.

Another illustration of labor is when you finish your meal in an hour, which means that you finished your work in an hour. In essence, work is the length of time it took you to complete any task.

Given that Sara drives 60 miles in 2 hours.

Distance covered by sara is = 60(2) = 120 miles.

We know that

speed = distance/time

Let's say speed is S time is t then

S = 120/t so the correct equation of the given question will be this.
