What percentage of babies born in the United States are classified as having a low birthweight (<2500g)? explain how you got your answer?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2.28% of babies born in the United States having a low birth weight.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is: In the United States, birth weights of newborn babies are approximately normally distributed with a mean of μ = 3,500 g and a standard deviation of σ = 500 g. What percent of babies born in the United States are classified as having a low birth weight (< 2,500 g)? Explain how you got your answer.

We are given that in the United States, birth weights of newborn babies are approximately normally distributed with a mean of μ = 3,500 g and a standard deviation of σ = 500 g.

Let X = birth weights of newborn babies

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

                          Z  =  [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean = 3,500 g

            [tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = 500 g

So, X ~ N([tex]\mu=3500, \sigma^{2} = 500[/tex])

Now, the percent of babies born in the United States having a low birth weight is given by = P(X < 2500 mg)

         

   P(X < 2500 mg) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex] < [tex]\frac{2500-3500}{500}[/tex] ) = P(Z < -2) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 2)

                                                                 = 1 - 0.97725 = 0.02275 or 2.28%

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2 in the z table which has an area of 0.97725.

Answer 2

Answer:

The z-score for 2,500 is -2. According to the empirical rule, 95% of babies have a birth weight of between 2,500 g and 4,500 g. 5% of babies have a birth weight of less than 2,500 g or greater than 4,500 g. Normal distributions are symmetric, so 2.5% of babies weigh less than 2,500 g.

feet
b) How many seconds does it take until the ball hits the ground?

seconds

Answers

Answer:

196 ft

6 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

We have a quadratic time dependent model of the ball trajectory which is thrown from the top of a 96-foot building as follows:

                     [tex]y(t) = -16t^2 + 80t + 96[/tex]

The height of the ball is modeled by the distance y ( t ) which changes with time ( t ) following a parabolic trajectory. To determine the maximum height of the ball we will utilize the concepts from " parabolas ".

The vertex of a parabola of the form ( given below ) is defined as:

                     [tex]f ( t ) = at^2 + bt + c[/tex]

                    Vertex: [tex]t = \frac{-b}{2a}[/tex]

- The modelling constants are: a = -16 , b = 80.

                   [tex]t = \frac{-80}{-32} = 2.5 s[/tex]

- Now evaluate the given function " y ( t ) " for the vertex coordinate t = 2.5 s. As follows:

                    [tex]y ( 2.5 ) = -16 ( 2.5 )^2 + 80*(2.5) + 96\\\\y ( 2.5 ) = 196 ft\\[/tex]

Answer: The maximum height of the ball is 196 ft at t = 2.5 seconds.

- The amount of time taken by the ball to hit the ground can be determined by solving the given quadratic function of ball's height ( y ( t ) ) for the reference ground value "0". We can express the quadratic equation as follows:

                    [tex]y ( t ) = -16t^2 + 80t + 96 = 0\\\\-16t^2 + 80t + 96 = 0[/tex]

Use the quadratic formula and solve for time ( t ) as follows:

                    [tex]t = \frac{-b +/- \sqrt{b^2 - 4 ac} }{2a} \\\\t = \frac{-80 +/- \sqrt{80^2 - 4 (-16)(96)} }{-32} \\\\t = \frac{-80 +/- 112 }{-32} = 2.5 +/- (-3.5 )\\\\t = -1, 6[/tex]

Answer: The value of t = -1 is ignored because it lies outside the domain. The ball hits the ground at time t = 6 seconds.

What is proportionality constant?

The constant of proportionality is the ratio of two proportional values at a constant value. Two variable values have a proportional relationship when either their ratio or their product gives a constant. The proportionality constant's value is determined by the proportion between the two specified quantities.

For example,  The number of apples in a crop, for example, is proportional to the number of trees in the orchard, the ratio of proportionality being the average number of apples per tree.

We have given that

y ∝ 1∕x

To remove proportional sign we use proportionality constant

y=k/x

Now, cross multiply

k= y×x

k = -2×14

k = -28

y = -28/x

Hence, the equation is y = -28/x .

The mean rate for cable with Internet from a sample of households was $106.50 per month with a standard deviation of $3.85 per month. Assuming the data set has a normal distribution, estimate the percent of households with rates from $100 to $115.

Answers

Answer:

The percent of households with rates from $100 to $115. is      [tex]P(100 < x < 115) =[/tex]94.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

From  the question we are told that  

   The  mean rate is [tex]\mu =[/tex]$ 106.50  per month

    The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma =[/tex]$3.85

Let the lower rate be  [tex]a =[/tex]$100

Let the higher rate  be  [tex]b =[/tex]$ 115

Assumed from the question  that the data set is normally

The  estimate of the percent of households with rates from $100 to $115. is mathematically represented as

         [tex]P(a < x < b) = P[ \frac{a -\mu}{\sigma } } < \frac{x- \mu}{\sigma} < \frac{b - \mu }{\sigma } ][/tex]

here x is a random value rate  which lies between the higher rate and the lower rate so

     [tex]P(100 < x < 115) = P[ \frac{100 -106.50}{3.85} } < \frac{x- \mu}{\sigma} < \frac{115 - 106.50 }{3.85 } ][/tex]

      [tex]P(100 < x < 115) = P[ -1.688< \frac{x- \mu}{\sigma} < 2.208 ][/tex]

Where  

      [tex]z = \frac{x- \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

Where z is the standardized value of  x

So

     [tex]P(100 < x < 115) = P[ -1.688< z < 2.208 ][/tex]

     [tex]P(100 < x < 115) = P(z< 2.208 ) - P(z< -1.69 )[/tex]

Now  from the z table we obtain that

      [tex]P(100 < x < 115) = 0.9864 - 0.0455[/tex]

     [tex]P(100 < x < 115) = 0.941[/tex]

    [tex]P(100 < x < 115) =[/tex]94.1%

Shawn has 25 coins, all nickels and dimes. The total value is $2.00. How many of each coin does he have ?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{15 \ dime \ and \ 10 \ nickel \ coins}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1 dime = 10 cents

1 nickel = 5 cents

So,

If there are 15 dimes

=> 15 dimes = 15*10 cents

=> 15 dimes = 150 cents

=> 15 dimes = $1.5

Rest is $0.5

So, for $0.5 we have 10 nickels coins

=> 10 nickels = 10*5

=> 10 nickels = 50 cents

=> 10 nickel coins = $0.5

Together it makes $2.00

Suppose we want to test the claim that the majority of adults are in favor of raising the vote age to 21. Is the hypothesis test left tailed, right tailed or two tailed

Answers

Answer:

The hypothesis test is right-tailed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that we want to test the claim that the majority of adults are in favor of raising the voting age to 21.

Let p = proportion of adults who are in favor of raising the voting age to 21

So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : p [tex]\leq[/tex] 50%

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : p > 50%

As we know that the majority is there when we have more 50% chance of happening of that event.

Here, the null hypothesis states that the proportion of adults who are in favor of raising the voting age to 21 is less or equal to 50%.

On the other hand, the alternate hypothesis states that the proportion of adults who are in favor of raising the voting age to 21 is more than 50%.

This shows that our hypothesis test is right-tailed because in the alternate hypothesis, the greater than sign is included.

A person stands 15 ft from an elephant. Determine how tall the elephant is in feet, the given diagram.

Answers

Answer:

The height of the elephant is [tex]\dfrac{15}{\sqrt3}\ ft[/tex].      

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

Distance between a person and an elephant is 15 ft

The angle of elevation of the elephant is 30 degrees.

We need to find the height of the elephant. For this let us consider that height is h. So,

[tex]\tan\theta=\dfrac{P}{B}\\\\\tan(30)=\dfrac{h}{15}\\\\h=15\times \tan(30)\\\\h=\dfrac{15}{\sqrt3}\ ft[/tex]

So, the height of the elephant is [tex]\dfrac{15}{\sqrt3}\ ft[/tex].      

The test statistic of zequalsnegative 3.43 is obtained when testing the claim that pless than0.39. a. Using a significance level of alphaequals0.05​, find the critical​ value(s). b. Should we reject Upper H 0 or should we fail to reject Upper H 0​?

Answers

Answer:

a

  [tex]z_t = -1.645[/tex]

b

 We should reject the Upper  [tex]H_o[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The test statistics is     [tex]t_s = -3.43[/tex]

     The probability is   [tex]p < 0.39[/tex]

      The level of significance is [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Now looking at the probability we can deduce that this is a left tailed test

The  second step to take is to obtain the critical value of [tex]\alpha[/tex] from the critical value table  

    The value  is  

               [tex]t_ {\alpha } = 1.645[/tex]

Now  since this  test is  a  left tailed test  the critical value will be

               [tex]z_t = -1.645[/tex]

This because we are considering the left tail of the normal distribution curve

 Now  since the test statistics falls within the  critical values the Null hypothesis is been rejected

Answers

Answer:

Aquarium dimensions:

x = 3,106 m

h = 6,22 m

C(min) = 1277,62 $

Step-by-step explanation: (INCOMPLETE QUESTION)

We have to assume:

The shape of the aquarium  (square base)

Let´s call "x" the side of the base, then h ( the heigh)

V(a) = x²*h          h = V(a)/x²      

Cost of Aquarium   C(a) = cost of the base (in stones) + 4* cost of one side (in glass)

C(a) = Area of the base *120 + 4*Area of one side*30

Area of the base is x²

Area of one side  is   x*h   or  x*V(a)/x²  

Area of one side is V(a)/x

C(x) = 120*x² + 4*30*60/x

C(x) = 120*x² +  7200/x

Taking derivatives on both sides of the equation we get

C´(x) = 2*120*x  - 7200/x²

C´(x) = 0 means    240 *x  - 7200/x² = 0

240*x³ - 7200 = 0

x³ = 7200/240

x = 3,106 m   and  h = 60 /x²     h =   6,22 m

and C (min) = 120*(3,106)³ - 7200 / 3,106

C(min) =  3595,72 - 2318,1

C(min) = 1277,62

A pyramid shaped building is 311 feet tall and has a square base with sides of 619 ft. The sides of the building are made from reflective glass. what is the surface area of the reflective glass

Answers

Answer:

Surface area of the reflective glass is 543234.4 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that: height = 311 feet, sides of square base = 619 feet.

To determine the slant height, we have;

[tex]l^{2}[/tex] = [tex]311^{2}[/tex] + [tex]309.5^{2}[/tex]

   = 96721 + 95790.25

   = 192511.25

⇒ l = [tex]\sqrt{192511.25}[/tex]

      = 438.761

The slant height, l is 438.8 feet.

Considering one reflecting surface of the pyramid, its area = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × base × height

  area =  [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 619 × 438.8

          = 135808.6

          = 135808.6 square feet

Since the pyramid has four reflective surfaces,

surface area of the reflective glass = 4 × 135808.6

                                                          = 543234.4 square feet

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 14.56231 cm

b(width) = 9 cm

a+b = 23.56231 cm

A(area) = 343.1215 cm

Sorry if this doesnt help

Answer:

length = [9/2 + (9/2)sqrt(5)] cm

length = 14.56 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In a golden rectangle, the width is a and the length is a + b.

The proportion of the lengths of the sides is:

(a + b)/a = a/b

Here, the width is 9 cm, so we have a = 9 cm.

(9 + b)/9 = 9/b

(9 + b)b = 81

b^2 + 9b - 81 = 0

b = (-9 +/- sqrt(9^2 - 4(1)(-81))/(2*1)

b = (-9 +/- sqrt(81 + 324)/2

b = (-9 +/- sqrt(405)/2

b = -9/2 +/- 9sqrt(5)/2

Length = a + b = 9 - 9/2 +/- 9sqrt(5)/2

Length = a + b = 9/2 +/- 9sqrt(5)/2

Since the length of a side of a rectangle cannot be negative, we discard the negative answer.

length = [9/2 + (9/2)sqrt(5)] cm

length = 14.56 cm

O A. B(a) = -7
B. B(a) = 9, -5

Answers

Answer:

[tex]B(a)=\frac{a}{5} -7[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The input it taken as the unknown base value, while the output here is the area of the trapezoid. b is therefore the base value, and A( b ) is the area of the trapezoid. Let's formulate the equation for the area of the trapezoid, and isolate the area of the trapezoid. To find the inverse of this function, switch y ( this is A( b ) ) and b, solving for y once more, y ➡ y ⁻ ¹.

y = height [tex]*[/tex] ( ( unknown base value ( b ) + 7 ) / 2 ),

y = 10 [tex]*[/tex] ( ( b + 7 ) / 2 )

Now switch the positions of y and b -

b = 10 [tex]*[/tex] ( ( y + 7 ) / 2 ) or [tex]b=\frac{\left(y+7\right)\cdot \:10}{2}[/tex] - now that we are going to take the inverse ( y ⁻ ¹ ) or B( a ), b will now be changed to a,

[tex]y+7=\frac{a}{5}[/tex],

Answer:

I always factor out the -1 so my leading coefficient is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

-x^2 + 10x -24

I always factor out the -1 so my leading coefficient is 1

-1 ( x^2 -10x +24)

Then what 2 terms multiply to 24 and add to -10

-6*-4 = 24

-6+-4 = -10

-1( x-6)(x-4)

What is the value of x?

Answers

Answer:

13=x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since BE is a bisector

ABE = EBC

2x+20 = 4x-6

Subtract 2x from each side

2x+20-2x =4x-6-2x

20 = 2x-6

Add 6 from each side

20+6 = 2x-6+6

26 = 2x

Divide each side by 2

26/2 = 2x/2

13=x

Answer:

x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle bisector theorem means that m<ABE = m<EBC. Now that we know they are equal, we can set the equations to each other and solve for x.

2x + 20 = 4x - 6

26 = 2x

13 = x

So the value of x is 13.

If the sampled population is finite and at least _____ times larger than the sample size, we treat the population as infinite.

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "20".

Step-by-step explanation:

It is also known as the group of the study, that targets the population, which helps to find the survey, which is the sampled population. It is measured by an ideal world, which will be the same, and they're always unique.  

Its sampling distribution of the "x bar" should also be naturally independent of the random sample, that is usually distributed. We consider the population as endless if the sampling size is at least 20 times greater than the sample size.

A lottery game has balls numbered 1 through 21. What is the probability of selecting an even numbered ball or an 8? Round to nearest thousandth

Answers

Answer: 0.476

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A = Event of choosing an even number ball.

B = Event of choosing an 8 .

Given, A lottery game has balls numbered 1 through 21.

Sample space: S= {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,...., 21}

n(S) = 21

Then, A= {2,4,6,8, 10,...(20)}

i.e. n(A)= 10

B= {8}

n(B) = 1

A∪B = {2,4,6,8, 10,...(20)} = A

n(A∪B)=10

Now, the probability of selecting an even numbered ball or an 8 is

[tex]P(A\cup B)=\dfrac{n(A\cup B)}{n(S)}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{10}{21}\approx0.476[/tex]

Hence, the required probability =0.476

The sum of three consecutive natural numbers is 555, find the numbers.

Answers

Answer:

184, 185, 186

Step-by-step explanation:

If the first number is x, the other numbers are x + 1 and x + 2, therefore we can write:

x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 555

3x + 3 = 555

3x = 552

x = 184 so the other numbers are 185 and 186.

Find the equation of a line parallel to −x+5y=1 that contains the point (−1,2)

Answers

Answer:

y=1/5x+11/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of the original line and use the point-slope formula  y-y^1=m(x-x^1) to find line parallel to -x+5y=1

Hope this helps

Answer: y = 1/5x+ 2.2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, change the expression into y-intercept form

-x+5y=1

5y=x+1

y=1/5x+1/5

For a line to be parallel to another line, it must have the same slope.  Thus, the slope must be 1/5x.  Then, to find the y-intercept simply do:

y = 1/5x+b, where x = -1 and y = 2

2=1/5(-1)+b

2 = -1/5+b

b = 2 1/5.

Thus, the equation y = 1/5x+ 2.2

The prices for a loaf of bread and a gallon of milk for two supermarkets are shown below. Sue needs to buy bread and milk for her church picnic. At Supermarket A, she would pay $137.24. At Supermarket B, she would pay $140.04. Which of the following system of equations represents this situation?

Answers

Answer:

B. 3.19b + 4.59m = 137.24

3.49b + 4.39m = $140.04

Step-by-step explanation:

A B

Bread $3.19 $3.49

Milk $4.59 $4.39

Sue paid $137.24 in supermarket A

Sue paid $140.04 in supermarket B

Let

Price of bread A=$3.19

Price of bread B=$3.49

Price of milk A=$4.59

Price of milk B=$4.39

Quantity of Bread=b

Quantity of Milk=m

Pb=price of bread

Pm=price of milk

Qb=Quantity of bread

Qm=Quantity of milk

For each supermarket

Supermarket A Equation

PbQb + PmQm =$137.24

3.19b+ 4.59m = 137.24

Supermarket B Equation

PbQb + PmQm=$140.04

3.49b + 4.39m = $140.04

Combining both equations

3.19b + 4.59m = 137.24

3.49b + 4.39m = $140.04
