After a robbery, a thief jumps into a taxi and disappears. An eyewitness on the crime scene is telling the police that the cab is yellow. In order to make sure that this testimony is worth something, the assistant district attorney makes a Bayesian analysis of the situation. After some research, he comes up with the following information: (1) In that particular city, 80% of taxis are black and 20% of taxis are yellow; and (2) Eyewitnesses are not always reliable and from past experience, it is expected that an eyewitness is 80% accurate. In other words, he will identify the color of a taxi accurately (yellow or black) eight out of ten times. What is the probability that the cab was really yellow, given that it was reported as being yellow

Width = x+1

Perimeter = 2(l+b)

Area = l*b

Perimeter= 2 (3x-1 + x+1)

P= 8x

Area = (3x-1) (x+1)

The 95 percent confidence interval for the mean is (266.76,426.24).

A confidence interval is how much uncertainty there is with any particular statistic. Confidence intervals are often used with a margin of error. It tells you how confident you can be that the results from a poll or survey reflect what you would expect to find if it were possible to survey the entire population. Confidence intervals are intrinsically connected to confidence levels.

The formula of Confidence Interval =  Mean ±   [tex]t\frac{Standard Deviation}{\sqrt{number of observations} }[/tex]

where t is a constant

Given:

Mean = 346.5

Standard Deviation = 170.378

t-critical value for 95% Confidence interval with degrees of freedom(df)=n-1= 19 is 2.093

∴ Substituting values in formula we get

E = [tex]2.093 X170.378/\sqrt{20}[/tex] = 2.0931.96 x 38.0976=79.74

Using the normal distribution, there is a 0.6826 = 68.26% probability that the sample mean will be within 2 points of the population mean.

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

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

For this problem, the parameters are given as follows:

[tex]\mu = 40, \sigma = 8, n = 16, s = \frac{8}{\sqrt{16}} = 2[/tex]

The probability that the sample mean will be within 2 points of the population mean is the p-value of Z when X = 40 + 2 = 42 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 40 - 2 = 38, hence:

X = 42:

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

Z = (42 - 40)/2

Z = 1

Z = 1 has a p-value of 0.8413.

X = 38:

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

Z = (38 - 40)/2

Z = -1

Z = -1 has a p-value of 0.1587.

0.8413 - 0.1587 = 0.6826 = 68.26% probability that the sample mean will be within 2 points of the population mean.

Joel spent 72.5% of his time exercising after playing soccer on Tuesda

The given parameters are

Minutes spent on Tuesday = 27 more minutes than Monday

Total minutes spend = 60

This means that

Tuesday = Monday + 27

Monday + Tuesday = 60

Make Monday the subject in Tuesday = Monday + 27

Monday = Tuesday - 27

Substitute Monday = Tuesday - 27 in Monday + Tuesday = 60

Tuesday - 27 + Tuesday = 60

Evaluate

2 * Tuesday = 87

Divide by 2

Tuesday = 43.5

The percentage of time spent exercising on Tuesday is then calculated as

Percentage = 43.5/60 * 100%

Evaluate the expression

Percentage = 72.5%

Hence, Joel spent 72.5% of his time exercising after playing soccer on Tuesday

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard deviation tells us the dispersion of data/scores around the mean.

We can say that the standard deviation tells us the dispersion of the scores, making option D the correct choice.

A standard deviation (or σ) is a measure of how widely distributed the data is about the mean (μ). A low standard deviation suggests that data is grouped around the mean, whereas a large standard deviation shows that data is more spread out. A standard deviation around 0 suggests that data points are close to the mean, whereas a high or low standard deviation indicates that data points are above or below the mean, respectively.

We use the following formula to compute the standard deviation:

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt\frac{{\sum_{i=1}^{N}\left | x_i - \mu \right | }^2}{N}[/tex]

In this formula, σ is the standard deviation, [tex]x_i[/tex] is the data point in the set we are solving for, μ is the mean, and N is the total number of data points.

In the question, we are asked to tell what standard deviations tell us from the given options.

Average speed of Alishia is 19 kilometers per hour

Average speed is calculated by dividing the total distance that something has traveled by the total amount of time it took it to travel that distance. Speed is how fast something is going at a particular moment. Average speed measures the average rate of speed over the extent of a trip

Given :

Distance = 45.3 km

Time taken = 143 minutes = 143/60 =2.384 hours

In which:

In this problem, we have a 95% confidence level, hence[tex]\alpha = 0.95[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]\frac{1+0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so the critical value is z = 1.96. Increasing the confidence level, z also increases, hence the margin of error also would have increased.
