a. [110.5, 125.5]
b. [112.5, 123.5]
c. [114.5, 121.5]
d. [116.5, 119.5]

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The  correct option is d

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  population size is  [tex]N = 47000[/tex]

    The  sample size is  [tex]n = 200[/tex]

     The  sample mean is   [tex]\= x = 118.0 \ mmHg[/tex]

     The  standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 11.0 \ mmHg[/tex]

     

Given that the confidence level is  95% then the level of significance can be calculated as

                     [tex]\alpha = 100 - 95[/tex]

                    [tex]\alpha = 5 \%[/tex]

                      [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Next we obtain the critical value of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from  z-table , the value is  [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = Z_{\frac{0.05 }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]

The reason we are obtaining critical value of   [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] instead of    [tex]\alpha[/tex] is because  

 [tex]\alpha[/tex] represents the area under the normal curve where the confidence level interval (   [tex]1-\alpha[/tex]) did not cover which include both the left and right tail while  

 [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex]  is just the area of one tail which what we required to calculate the margin of error .

NOTE: We can also obtain the value using critical value calculator (math dot armstrong dot edu)

  Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

            [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *\frac{\sigma }{ \sqrt{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

           [tex]E = 1.96 *\frac{11.0 }{ \sqrt{200} }[/tex]

           [tex]E = 1.5245[/tex]

The  95% confidence level interval is mathematically represented as

       [tex]\= x - E < \mu < \= x + E[/tex]

substituting values

       [tex]118.0 - 1.5245 < \mu < 118.0 + 1.5245[/tex]

        [tex]116.5< \mu < 119.5[/tex]

         [tex][116.5 , 119.5][/tex]

A factory manufactures chairs and tables, each requiring the use of three operations: cutting, assembly, and finishing. The first operation can use at most 40 hours; the second at most 42 hours; and the third at most 25 hours. A chair requires 1 hour of cutting, 2 hours of assembly, and 1 hour of finishing; a table needs 2 hours of cutting, 1 hour of assembly, and 1 hour of finishing. If the profit is $20 per unit for a chair and $30 for a table, what is the maximum revenue? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Do not include a dollar sign or comma in your answer.

Answers

Answer:

z(max) = 650 $

x₁ = 10 units

x₂ = 15 units

Step-by-step explanation:

That is a linear programming problem, we will use a simplex method to solve it

Formulation:

Let´s call  x₁  number of chairs   and x₂ number of tables then :

Item              (in hours)     cutting       assembly      finishing        Profit ($)

Chairs (x₁)                              1                   2                     1                      20

Tables (x₂)                              2                   1                      1                      30

Availability                           40                 42                   25

Objective Function

z  =  20*x₁   +  30x₂   ( to maximize) subject to:

x₁  +  2x₂   ≤  40

2x₁  + x₂    ≤  42

x₁ + x₂     ≤    25

x₁  ,   x₂  >= 0

Using excel or any other software we find:

z(max) = 650

x₁ = 10

x₂ = 15

The chairs and tables manufactured by the factory is an illustration of linear programming, where the maximum revenue is 674

Let x represent chairs, and y represent tables

So, the given parameters are:

Cutting:

Chairs: 1 hourTable: 2 hoursHour available: 40

So, the constraint is:

[tex]\mathbf{x + 2y \le 40}[/tex]

Assembly:

Chairs: 2 hoursTable: 1 hourHour available: 42

So, the constraint is:

[tex]\mathbf{2x + y \le 42}[/tex]

Finishing:

Chairs: 1 hourTable: 1 hourHour available: 25

So, the constraint is:

[tex]\mathbf{x + y \le 25}[/tex]

The unit profit on the items are:

Chairs: $20Table: $30

So, the objective function to maximize is:

[tex]\mathbf{Max\ z = 20x + 30y}[/tex]

And the constraints are:

[tex]\mathbf{x + 2y \le 40}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{2x + y \le 42}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x + y \le 25}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x,y \ge 0}[/tex]

Using graphical method (see attachment for graph), we have the following feasible points:

[tex]\mathbf{(x,y) = \{(10,15),\ (17,8),\ (14.67, 12.67)\}}[/tex]

Calculate the objective function using the feasible points.

[tex]\mathbf{z = 20 \times 10 + 30 \times 15}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{z = 650}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{z = 20 \times 17 + 30 \times 8}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{z = 580}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{z = 20 \times 14.67+ 30 \times 12.67}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{z = 673.5}[/tex]

Approximate

[tex]\mathbf{z = 674}[/tex]

Hence, the maximum revenue is 674

These and other sampling were based on 522 teenagers. Estimate the proportion of all teenagers who want more family discussions about school. Use a 90% confidence level. Express the answer in the form P hat+- E

Answers

Answer:

The estimate is  [tex]P__{hat}} \pm E = 0.37 \pm 0.0348[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that  

    The sample size is  n =  522

    The sample proportion of students  would like to talk about school is  [tex]\r p__{hat}} = 0.37[/tex]

  Given that the confidence level is  90 % then the level of significance can be mathematically evaluated as

                  [tex]\alpha = 100 - 90[/tex]

                  [tex]\alpha = 10\%[/tex]

                  [tex]\alpha = 0.10[/tex]

Next we obtain the critical value of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] from the normal distribution table, the value is  

               [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =Z_{\frac{0.10}{2} } = 1.645[/tex]

Generally the margin of error can be mathematically represented as

               [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \sqrt{\frac{\r P_{hat}(1- \r P_{hat} )}{n } }[/tex]

=>            [tex]E = 1.645 * \sqrt{\frac{0.37 (1- 0.37 )}{522 } }[/tex]

Family Size. You selected a random sample of n = 31 families in your neighborhood and found the mean family size for the sample equal to 3.1, the standard deviation for the sample is 1.42? What is the 90% confidence interval for the estimate?

Answers

Answer : (2.67, 3.53)

Step to step explanation:

Confidence interval for mean, when population standard deviation is unknown:

[tex]\overline{x}\pm t_{\alpha/2}\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

, where [tex]\overline{x}[/tex] = sample mean

n= sample size

s= sample standard deviation

[tex]t_{\alpha/2}[/tex] = Critical t-value for n-1 degrees of freedom

We assume the family size is normal distributed.

Given, n= 31 , [tex]\overline{x}=3.1[/tex], s= 1.42 ,

[tex]\alpha=1-0.9=0.10[/tex]

Critical t value for [tex]\alpha/2=0.05[/tex] and degree of 30 freedom

[tex]t_{\alpha/2}[/tex] = 1.697  [By t-table]

The required confidence interval:

[tex]3.1\pm ( 1.697)\dfrac{1.42}{\sqrt{31}}\\\\=3.1\pm0.4328\\\\=(3.1-0.4328,\ 3.1+0.4328)=(2.6672,\ 3.5328)\approx(2.67,\ 3.53)[/tex]

Hence,  the 90% confidence interval for the estimate = (2.67, 3.53)

suppose that two integers from the set of 8 integers {1,2,… ,8} are choosen at random. Find the probability that
i.5 and 8 are picked.
ii.Both numbers match.
iii.Sum of the two numbers picked is less than 4.

Answers

Answer:

Ok so we have a set of 8 numbers {1,2,...,8}

a) 5 and 8 are picked.The probability here is:

In the first selection we can pick 5 or 8, so we have two possible outcomes out of 8 total outcomes, then the probability for the first selection is:

P = 2/8 = 1/4.

Now, if one of those numbers was picked in the first selection, only one outcome is possible in this second selection, (if before we picked a 5, here we only can pick an 8)

Then the probability is:

P = 1/8

The joint probability is equal to the product of the individual probabilities, so here we have:

P = (1/4)*(1/8) = 1/32 = 0.003

b) The numbers match:

In the first selection we can have any outcome, so the probability is:

P = 8/8 = 1

Now, based on the previous outcome, in the second selection we can have only one outcome, so here the probability is:

P = 1/8 = 0.125

The joint probability is p = 1/8

c) The sum is smaller than 4:

The combinations are:

1 - 1

1 - 2

2 - 1

We have 3 combinations, and the total number of possible combinations is:

8 options for the first number and 8 options for the second selection:

8*8  = 64

The probabilty is equal to the number of outcomes that satisfy the sentence divided by the total numberof outcomes:

P = 3/64 = 0.047

Using the probability concept, it is found that there is a:

i. 0.03125 = 3.125% probability that 5 and 8 are picked.

ii. 0.125 = 12.5% probability that both numbers match.

iii. 0.046875 = 4.6875% probability that the sum of the two numbers picked is less than 4.

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, two integers are chosen from a set of 8, hence, there are [tex]8^2 = 64[/tex] total outcomes.

Item i:

Two outcomes result in 5 and 8 being picked, (5,8) and (8,5), hence:

[tex]p = \frac{2}{64} = 0.03125[/tex]

0.03125 = 3.125% probability that 5 and 8 are picked.

Item ii:

8 outcomes result in both numbers matching, (1,1), (2,2), ..., (8,8), hence:

[tex]p = \frac{8}{64} = 0.125[/tex]

0.125 = 12.5% probability that both numbers match.

Item ii:

Three outcomes result in a sum of less than 2, (1,1), (1,2), (2,1), hence:

[tex]p = \frac{3}{64} = 0.046875[/tex]

0.046875 = 4.6875% probability that the sum of the two numbers picked is less than 4.

please help Find: ∠x ∠a ∠b

Answers

Answer:

x = 22

<a = 88°

<b = 92°

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for x, <a, and <b, we'd need to recall some of the properties of parallel lines, then apply them in solving this problem.

To find the value of x, recall that consecutive interior angles are supplementary. (5x - 18), and (3x + 22) are consecutive interior angles. Therefore:

[tex] (5x - 18) + (3x + 22) = 180 [/tex]

Solve for x

[tex] 5x - 18 + 3x + 22 = 180 [/tex]

[tex] 5x + 3x - 18 + 22 = 180 [/tex]

[tex] 8x + 4 = 180 [/tex]

Subtract 4 from both sides:

[tex] 8x + 4 - 4 = 180 - 4 [/tex]

[tex] 8x = 176 [/tex]

Divide both sides by 8

[tex] \frac{8x}{8} = \frac{176}{8} [/tex]

[tex] x = 22 [/tex]

=>Find <a:

According to the properties of parallel lines, alternate interior angles are equal. Therefore:

<a = 3x + 22

Plug in the value of x

<a = 3(22) + 22 = 66 + 22

<a = 88°

=>Find <b:

According to the properties of parallel lines, corresponding angles are said to be equal. Therefore,

<b = 5x - 18

Plug in the value of x to find <b

<b = 5(22) - 18

<b = 110 - 18 = 92°

For which positive integer values of $k$ does $kx^2+20x+k=0$ have rational solutions? Express your answers separated by commas and in increasing order.d

Answers

When you solve this equation using the quadratic formula, you will get [tex]x = \frac{-20\pm \sqrt{400-4k^2}}{2k}[/tex]. The only way for this number to be irrational is for [tex]\sqrt{400-4k^2}[/tex] to be irrational. The square root of any number that is not a perfect square is irrational*, so the solutions of the quadratic are rational if and only if [tex]400-4k^2[/tex] is a perfect square. We can factor out the 4 (which is already a perfect square), which means that [tex]100-k^2[/tex] must be a perfect square. This occurs exactly when k is equal to one of the following:[tex]\sqrt{100},\sqrt{99},\sqrt{96},\sqrt{91},\sqrt{84},\sqrt{75},\sqrt{64},\sqrt{51},\sqrt{36},\sqrt{19}, \sqrt{0}[/tex].

Of these, the only positive integer values of k are: [tex]\sqrt{100}, \sqrt{64}, \sqrt{36}[/tex], or simply 6, 8, and 10.

* This is quite simple to show: Take any rational number, a/b. Without loss of generality, we can assume that a/b is in reduced form, that is, a and b have no common factors. (a/b)^2 is a^2/b^2, and since a and b have no common factors, neither do a^2 and b^2. Therefore, a^2/b^2 cannot be an integer. In the event that a/b is an integer, b would equal 1, and this proof would not hold.

Answer:

40 deg

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical sides of the rectangle are parallel, so the triangle is a right triangle.

The triangle is a right triangle, so the acute angles are complementary.

The bottom right angle of the triangle measures 90 - 50 = 40 deg.

The bottom line and the top side of the rectangle are parallel, so corresponding angles are congruent. x and the 40-deg angle are corresponding angles, so they are congruent.

x = 40 deg.

A certain variety of pine tree has a mean trunk diameter of y = 150 cm and a
standard deviation of o = 30 cm.
A certain section of a forest has 500 of these trees.
Approximately how many of these trees have a diameter smaller than 120 cm?

Answers

Answer:

80 trees have a diameter smaller than 120cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

To solve this question, we would make use of the Z score formula.

z = x - μ/σ

Where

z = z score

x = Raw score = 120cm

μ = Population mean = 150cm

σ = Population standard deviation = 30cm

Hence,

z =120 - 150/30

z = -1

The z score = -1

Step 2

We find the Probability of the calculated z score using the z score table.

P(z) = P(z = -1) = P(x<120) = 0.15866

Approximately to the nearest hundredth = 0.16

Converting to percentage = 0.16 × 100 = 16%

The percentage of trees with a diameter smaller than 120cm = 16%

Therefore, the number of trees with a diameter smaller than 120cm

= 16% × 500 trees = 80trees

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that a sample is used to estimate a population proportion μ . Find the margin of error M.E. that corresponds to a sample of size 722 with a mean of 54.2 and a standard deviation of 13.1 at a confidence level of 90%.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]MoE = 1.645\cdot \frac{13.1}{\sqrt{772} } \\\\MoE = 1.645\cdot 0.47147\\\\MoE = 0.776\\\\[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sample size is quite large, we can use the z-distribution.

The margin of error is  given by

[tex]$ MoE = z_{\alpha/2}(\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } ) $[/tex]

Where n is the sample size, s is the sample standard deviation and [tex]z_{\alpha/2}[/tex] is the z-score corresponding to a 90% confidence level.

The z-score corresponding to a 90% confidence level is

Significance level = α = 1 - 0.90= 0.10/2 = 0.05

From the z-table at α = 0.05

z-score = 1.645

[tex]MoE = 1.645\cdot \frac{13.1}{\sqrt{772} } \\\\MoE = 1.645\cdot 0.47147\\\\MoE = 0.776\\\\[/tex]

Therefore, the margin of error is 0.776.

Hal is asked to write an exponential function to represent the value of a $10,000 investment decreasing at 2% annually. What multiplicative rate of change should Hal use in his function? 0.02 0.98 1.02 1.98

Answers

Answer:Hal is expected to use 0.98

Step-by-step explanation:

Hal is expected to use 0.98, the reason is that 2% of $10,000 will give $200

i.e (2/100)*10,000= $200.

therefore 10,000-200= $9800.

Since the money is decreasing by 2%, we have 100-2= 98% = 0.98

hence when 10,000 is multiplied by 0.98 we have $200 which is 2% of $10,000

Translate the following into an algebraic expression: A number is 30% of 20% of the number x.

Answers

Answer: 0.06x

Step-by-step explanation:

An algebraic expression is an expression consist of integer constants, variables, and algebraic operations.

The given statement:  A number is 30% of 20% of the number x.

The required algebraic expression would be:

30% of 20% of x

[tex]=\dfrac{30}{100}\times \dfrac{20}{100}\times x[/tex]  [we divide a percentage by 100 to convert it into decimal]

[tex]=\dfrac{6}{100}\times x\\\\=0.06x[/tex]

Hence, the required algebraic expression would be :

0.06x

Answer:

the radius of the circle =7

Step-by-step explanation:

the function of a circle:(x – h)^2 + (y – k)^2 = r^2

center(0,0) because the center of a circle is at the origin (h,k)

a line intersect at (0,7)

(0-0)^+7-0)^2=r^2

r^2=49 , r=√49
