A sample of 25 one-year-old girls had a mean weight of 24.1 pounds with a standard deviation of pounds. Assume that the population of weights is normally distributed. A pediatrician claims that the standard deviation of the weights of one-year-old girls is less than pounds. Do the data provide convincing evidence that the pediatrician's claim is true

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Paedtricians claim isn't true.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis :

H0 : σ = 7

H0 : σ > 7

The test statistic ; χ² :

χ² = [(n - 1) * s²] ÷ σ²

n = 25 ; s = 4.3, σ = 7

χ² = [(25 - 1) * 4.3²] ÷ 7²

χ² = [(24 * 4.3²] ÷ 49

χ² = 443.76 / 49

χ² = 9.056

At α = 0.01 ; critical value = 42.980

Since critical value > test statistic, we fail to reject the null, H0.

A statewide real estate sales agency, Farm Associates, specializes in selling farm property in the state of Nebraska. Its records indicate that the mean selling time of farm property is 90 days. Because of recent drought conditions, the agency believes that the mean selling time is now greater than 90 days. A statewide survey of 100 recently sold farms revealed a mean selling time of 94 days, with a standard deviation of 22 days.
At the 0.10 significance level, has there been an increase in selling time?
a. What is the decision rule? (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)
b. Compute the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
c. What is your decision regarding H0?

Answers

Answer:

Test statistic = 1.818

Reject H0

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : μ = 90

H1 : μ > 90

xbar = 94 ; s = 22 ; n = 100

The test statistic : (xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))

Test statistic = (94 - 90) ÷ (22/√100)

Test statistic = 4 ÷ 2.2

T = 1.818

The critical value :

At α = 0.10

Degree of freedom = n - 1 = 100 - 1 = 99

Tcritical(0.10, 99) = 1.290

Decison region :

Reject H0 if Test statistic > |Tcritical |

1.818 > 1.290

We reject H0

Find the volume of the solid lying between two planes perpendicular to the x-axis at x = −1 and x = 1. The cross sections perpendicular to the x-axis are squares whose diagonals run from y = x 2 to y = 2 − x 2

Answers

I've attached a sketch of one such cross section (light blue) of the solid (shown at x = 0). The planes x = ±1 are shown in gray, and the two parabolas are respectively represented by the blue and orange curves in the (x, y)-plane.

For every x in the interval [-1, 1], the corresponding cross section has a diagonal of length (2 - x ²) - x ² = 2 (1 - x ²). The diagonal of any square occurs in a ratio to its side length of √2 : 1, so the cross section has a side length of 2/√2 (1 - x ²) = √2 (1 - x ²), and hence an area of (√2 (1 - x ²))² = 2 (1 - x ²)².

The total volume of the solid is then given by the integral,

[tex]\displaystyle\int_{-1}^1 2(1-x^2)^2\,\mathrm dx = \int_{-1}^1 (2-4x^2+4x^4)\,\mathrm dx = \boxed{\frac{32}{15}}[/tex]

Find an equation for the line with the given properties. Perpendicular to the line 7x - 3y = 68; containing the point (8, -8)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=\dfrac{-3}{7}x-\dfrac{32}{7}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A line 7x - 3y = 68 and containing the point (8, -8).

The equation can be written as :

[tex]-3y=68-7x\\\\y=\dfrac{68}{-3}+\dfrac{7x}{3}\\\\y=\dfrac{7x}{3}+(\dfrac{-68}{3})[/tex]

The slope is :7/3

Line is perpendicular so use m = –3/7

[tex]-8=(-\dfrac{3}{7})\times 8+b\\\\-8+\dfrac{3}{7}\times 8=b\\\\b=\dfrac{-32}{7}[/tex]

So, required equation is :

[tex]y=\dfrac{-3}{7}x-\dfrac{32}{7}[/tex]

If a seed is planted, it has a 90% chance of growing into a healthy plant. If 12 seeds are planted, what is the probability that exactly 2 don't grow

Answers

Answer:

0.2301 = 23.01% probability that exactly 2 don't grow.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each seed planted, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it grows into a healthy plant, or it does not. The probability of a seed growing into a healthy plant is independent of any other seed, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

90% chance of growing into a healthy plant.

This means that [tex]p = 0.9[/tex]

12 seeds are planted

This means that [tex]n = 12[/tex]

What is the probability that exactly 2 don't grow?

So 12 - 2 = 10 grow, which is [tex]P(X = 10)[/tex]. Then

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 10) = C_{12,10}.(0.9)^{10}.(0.1)^{2} = 0.2301[/tex]

0.2301 = 23.01% probability that exactly 2 don't grow.

The mean of a data set is observed to be very different from its median, representing a strong skewness. However, the 1.5 IQR rule reveals that there are no outliers. Which of the following is correct, if the sample size is 100?

a. A normal quantile plot of the data follows a diagonal line, and the t-procedure is appropriate to use.
b. A normal quantile plot of the data does not follow a diagonal line, and the t- procedure is not appropriate to use.
c. A normal quantile plot of the data follows a diagonal line, and the t-procedure is not appropriate to use.
d. A normal quantile plot of the data does not follow a diagonal line, and the t- procedure is appropriate to use.

Answers

Answer:

a. A normal quantile plot of the data follows a diagonal line, and the t-procedure is appropriate to use.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

In this question:

Sample size of 100 > 30, which means that we use the Central Limit Theorem, and thus, the sampling distribution is approximately normal, following a diagonal line, and since the standard deviation of the population is not know, we use the t-procedure. Thus, the correct answer is given by option a.

A) A = 0.5x^2 - 15x

B) A = -0.5x^2 + 7x

C) A = -x^2 + 10x

D) A = x^2 - 10x

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the base of the triangle be b and the height be h.

The sum of the base and height is 14. Thus:

[tex]b+h=14[/tex]

Recall that the area of a triangle is given by:

[tex]\displaystyle A=\frac{1}{2}bh[/tex]

From the first equation, solve for either variable:

[tex]h=14-b[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle A=\frac{1}{2}b(14-b)[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]\displaystyle A=\frac{1}{2}(14b-b^2)[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]\displaystyle A=-0.5b^2+7b[/tex]

Let b = x. Hence:

[tex]A=-0.5x^2+7x[/tex]

Therefore, our answer is B.

The radioactive isotope carbon-14 is present in small quantities in all life forms, and it is constantly replenished until the organism dies, after which it decays to stable carbon-12 at a rate proportional to the amount of carbon-14 present, with a half-life of 5549 years. Let C(t) be the amount of carbon-14 present at time t.
(a) Find the value of the constant k in the differential equation C' = -kC.
(b) In 1988 three teams of scientists found that the Shroud of Turin, which was reputed to be the burial cloth of Jesus, contained 91% of the amount of carbon-14 contained in freshly made cloth of the same material. How old was the Shroud of Turin at the time of this data?

Answers

Answer:

a) k = 0.00012491389

b) The Shroud of Turin was 755 years old at the time of this data.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Find the value of the constant k in the differential equation C' = -kC.

First we find the differential equation, by separation of variables. So

[tex]\int \frac{C^{\prime}}{C} dt = -\int k dt[/tex]

So

[tex]\ln{C} = -kt + K[/tex]

In which K is the constant of integration, representing the initial amount of substance. So

[tex]C(t) = C(0)e^{-kt}[/tex]

Half-life of 5549 years.

This means that [tex]C(5549) = 0.5C(0)[/tex]. We use this to find k. So

[tex]C(t) = C(0)e^{-kt}[/tex]

[tex]0.5C(0) = C(0)e^{-5549k}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-5549k} = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-5549k}} = \ln{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]-5549k = \ln{0.5}[/tex]

[tex]k = -\frac{\ln{0.5}}{5549}[/tex]

[tex]k = 0.00012491389[/tex]

So

[tex]C(t) = C(0)e^{-0.00012491389t}[/tex]

(b) In 1988 three teams of scientists found that the Shroud of Turin, which was reputed to be the burial cloth of Jesus, contained 91% of the amount of carbon-14 contained in freshly made cloth of the same material. How old was the Shroud of Turin at the time of this data?

This is t for which [tex]C(t) = 0.91C(0)[/tex]

So

[tex]C(t) = C(0)e^{-0.00012491389t}[/tex]

[tex]0.91C(0) = C(0)e^{-0.00012491389t}[/tex]

[tex]e^{-0.00012491389t} = 0.91[/tex]

[tex]\ln{e^{-0.00012491389t}} = \ln{0.91}[/tex]

[tex]-0.00012491389t = \ln{0.91}[/tex]

[tex]t = -\frac{\ln{0.91}}{0.00012491389}[/tex]

[tex]t = 755[/tex]

The Shroud of Turin was 755 years old at the time of this data.
