Believe it or not, there are some people who don't think that Duke will win the NCAA tournament this year. Let's say that you want to measure the average intelligence of Duke Doubters. Problem is you could only find 28 DDs on this whole campus. The mean of your sample was 90 and the standard deviation was 60. Calculate the 90% Confidence Interval for the IQ of DDs

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval is   [tex] 87.95   <  \mu < 92.05  [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  [tex]n = 28[/tex]

    The  sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 90[/tex]

    The standard deviation is  [tex]s= 60[/tex]

Generally given that the sample size is not large enough i.e  n <  28 then we will make use of the t distribution table  

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

         [tex]df = n- 1[/tex]    

=>      [tex]df = 28 - 1[/tex]  

=>      [tex]df = 2 7[/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.10[/tex]

Generally from the student t  distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] at a degree of freedom of [tex]df = 2 7[/tex]  is  

   [tex]t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} , 27  } =  2.052[/tex]

Generally 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

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

=> [tex]90  - 2.052  <  \mu < 90  + 2.052  [/tex]

=> [tex] 87.95   <  \mu < 92.05  [/tex]

An article on polygraph testing of FBI agents indicated that the probability of a false-positive (a trustworthy person who nonetheless fails the test) is 0.15. Let x be the number of trustworthy FBI agents tested until someone fails the test. What is the probability that the first false-positive will occur when the third person is tested

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Probability = 0.108375[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let the probability of false positive be represented with p

[tex]p = 0.15[/tex]

Required

Determine the probability the first occurrence of p was at the third person

We have that:

[tex]p = 0.15[/tex]

The  probability that a trustworthy person do not fail the test (q) is:

[tex]q = 1 - p[/tex]

[tex]q = 1 - 0.15[/tex]

[tex]q = 0.85[/tex]

The required probability implies that:

The first person did not fail: i.e. 0.85

The second person did not fail: i.e. 0.85

The third person failed: i.e. 0.15

This is then calculated as:

[tex]Probability = 0.85 * 0.85 * 0.15[/tex]

[tex]Probability = 0.108375[/tex]

Hence, the probability that the first false positive occurred at the third person is 0.108375

volcano Puu Puai in Hawaii was formed in 1959 when a massive “lava fountain” erupted. The lava shot from the ground with an initial velocity of 350 feet per second.
a. For how long was the lava in the air until it returned to the ground?
b. What was the maximum height of the lava?
c. After how many seconds did the maximum height occur?

Answers

Answer:

a)Tt = 21,41 s

b) y(max) = 1873 ft

c)  t = 10,70 s

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that this is a case of vertical shooting then:

a) Vf  = V₀  -  g*t

Vf = 0         -g*t = -V₀

t  =  V₀ /g         t  =  350 ft/s / 32,7 ft/s²

t  =  10,70 s     time for lava to reach y maximum

a) Then  Tt = 2*10,7     Tt = 21,41 s

Lava was in the air for  Tt = 21,41 s

b) y = y₀ + v₀*t - (1/2 )*g*t²

for y = ymax  we get:

y(max)  = 0 + 350*10,70 - 0,5* 32,7* ( 10,70)²

y(max)  =  3745  - 1872

y(max) = 1873 ft

c) t = 10,70 s

The midpoint of \overline{\text{AB}}AB is M(-6, -4)M(−6,−4). If the coordinates of AA are (-4, -3)(−4,−3), what are the coordinates of BB?​

Answers

Answer:

The coordinates of B is (-8,-5).

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint of line AB is M. The coordinate of M is (-6,-4).

The coordinates of A is (-4,-3)

We need to find the mid point of B.

If M(x,y) is the midpoint of the coordinates (x₁,y₁) and (x₂,y₂). The mid point theorem is used as follows :

[tex]M(x,y)=(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex]

Let the mid point of B is (x₂,y₂). Put (x,y) = (-6,-4), (x₁,y₁) = (-4,-3).

[tex](-6,-4)=(\dfrac{-4+x_2}{2},\dfrac{-3+y_2}{2})\\\\\dfrac{-4+x_2}{2}=-6\ \text{and}\ \dfrac{-3+y_2}{2}=-4\\\\-4+x_2=-12\ \text{and}\ -3+y_2=-8\\\\x_2=-12+4\ \text{and}\ y_2=-8+3\\\\x_2=-8\ \text{and}\ y_2=-5[/tex]

So, the coordinates of B is (-8,-5).

The coordinates of B are (-8, -5).

Given that,

The midpoint of AB is M(-6, -4). If the coordinates of A is (4,-2),

We have to determine,

The coordinates of B.

According to the question,

The midpoint of line AB is M. The coordinate of M is (-6,-4).

And the coordinates of A is (-4,-3)

If M(x, y) is the midpoint of the coordinates (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂). The midpoint theorem is used as follows :

[tex]M(x, y) = ( \dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2})[/tex]

Let the midpoint of B be (x₂, y₂).

M (x, y) = (-6,-4), and (x₁, y₁) = (-4,-3).

[tex]M(-6, -4) = ( \dfrac{-4+x_2}{2}, \dfrac{-3+y_2}{2})\\\\[/tex]

Solving the equation for the co-ordinate B.

[tex]\dfrac{-4+x_2}{2} = -6\\\\-4 + x_2 = -6 \times 2\\\\-4 + x_2 = -12\\\\x_2 = -12+4\\\\x_2 = -8[/tex]

And,

[tex]\dfrac{-3+y_2}{2} = -4\\\\-3 + y_2 = -4 \times 2\\\\-3 + y_2 = -8\\\\y_2 = -8 + 3\\\\y_2 = -5[/tex]

Hence, The required coordinates of B are (-8, -5).

g E. (i). An oil company conducts a geological study that indicates that an exploratory oil well should have a 20% chance of striking oil. What is the probability that the first strike comes on the third well drilled

Answers

Answer:

0.128

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Probability of striking oil = p = 20% = 0.2

Striking occurs on the 3rd well drilled : x = 3

Hence ;

P(x = 3) =?

Using a geometric probability function :

p(x = x) = (1 - p)^(x - 1) * p

P(x = 3) = (1 - 0.2)^(3 - 1) * (0.2)

P(x = 3) = 0.8^2 * 0.2

P(x = 3) = 0.64 * 0.2

P(x = 3) = 0.128

Answers

Answer:

Every whole number n can be written as a fraction of integers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Every whole number n can be written as a fraction of integers: x=x/1.

If we use 15 as an example, it would be 15 = 15/1. 15/1 is 15.

So whole numbers are rational

Whole numbers are rational numbers because all whole numbers can be expressed in the form a/b. Hence, 15 can be expressed as a rational fraction thus 15/1

When a number can be expressed in the form a/b ; such that the value of the denominator, b ≠ 0 ; then the number is said to be rational.

Whole numbers are positive integer values and as such, they are not decimals.

Every whole number can be expressed such that the denominator is 1 ; hence, they can be expressed in the form a/b.

15 as a whole number can be rewritten as 15/1. Hence, all whole numbers are rational.

The point R(-3,a,-1) is the midpoint of the line segment jointing the points P(1,2,b)
and Q(c,-7,4)
Find the values of:
a=
b=
C=

Answers

Answer:

The values are:

a = -5/2

b = -6

c = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

P = (x₁, y₁, z₁) = (1, 2, b)  

Q =  (x₂, y₂, z₂) = (c, -7, 4)  

As the point R(-3, a, -1) is the midpoint of the line segment jointing the points P(1,2,b)  and Q(c,-7,4), so

m = R = (x, y, z) = (-3, a, -1)

Using the mid-point formula

[tex]m\:=\:\left(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\:\frac{y_1+y_2}{2},\:\frac{z_1+z_2}{2}\right)[/tex]

given

(x₁, y₁, z₁) = (1, 2, b) = P

(x₂, y₂, z₂) = (c, -7, 4) = Q

m = (x, y, z) = (-3, a, -1) = R

substituting the values in the mid-point formula

[tex]m\:=\:\left(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2},\:\frac{y_1+y_2}{2},\:\frac{z_1+z_2}{2}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\left(x,\:y,\:z\right)\:=\:\left(\frac{1+c}{2},\:\frac{2+\left(-7\right)}{2},\:\frac{b+4}{2}\right)[/tex]

as (x, y, z) = (-3, a, -1), so

[tex]\left(-3,\:a,\:-1\right)\:=\:\left(\frac{1+c}{2},\:\frac{2+\left(-7\right)}{2},\:\frac{b+4}{2}\right)[/tex]

so solving 'c'

-3 = (1+c) / (2)

-3 × 2 = 1+c

1+c = -6

c = -6 - 1

c = -7

solving 'a'

a = (2+(-7)) / 2

2a = 2-7

2a = -5

a = -5/2

solving b

-1 = (b+4) / 2

-2 = b+4

b+4 = -2

b = -2-4

b = -6

Thus, the values are:

a = -5/2

b = -6

c = -7

Verification:

[tex]\left(x,\:y,\:z\right)\:=\:\left(\frac{1+c}{2},\:\frac{2+\left(-7\right)}{2},\:\frac{b+4}{2}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\left(-3,\:a,\:-1\right)\:=\:\left(\frac{1+c}{2},\:\frac{2+\left(-7\right)}{2},\:\frac{b+4}{2}\right)[/tex]

put a = -5/2, b = -6, c = -7

[tex]\left(-3,\:-\frac{5}{2},\:-1\right)\:=\:\left(\frac{1+\left(-7\right)}{2},\:-\frac{5}{2},\:\frac{\left(-6\right)+4}{2}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\left(-3,\:-\frac{5}{2},\:-1\right)\:=\:\left(\frac{-6}{2},\:-\frac{5}{2},\:\frac{-2}{2}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\left(-3,\:-\frac{5}{2},\:-1\right)\:=\:\left(-3,\:-\frac{5}{2},\:-1\right)[/tex]

A biology student wants to determine if using a fertilizer would help promote the growth of new babies in spider plants. The student has access to 90 baby spider plants of three varieties: green, variegated, and curly. There are 30 plants of each variety. They all are potted in the same amount and type of soil, given the same amount of water, and exposed to the same amount of light. The numbers 1–30 are written on slips of paper, placed in a hat, and mixed thoroughly. A plant is selected and a slip of paper is drawn. If the slip has the numbers 1–15, then the plant will receive fertilizer. If the slip has the numbers 16–30, the plant will not receive fertilizer. A green spider plant is selected and a slip of paper is drawn. This plant is placed in the treatment group indicated by the number, and the slip is not put back in the bag. The slips are mixed again, the next green spider plant is selected, and a slip is drawn. The plant is placed in the treatment group indicated by the number. This procedure is repeated until all 30 green spider plants are assigned to treatments. The numbered slips are placed back in the bag and this procedure is repeated for the remaining types of spider plants. After one year, the shoots will be counted for each plant.

Which of the following best describes the design for this experiment?

Answers

Answer:

Randomized block design

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we can see the following:

- There are 30 plants of each variety. This means that they are divided into variety subgroups which we will call blocks.

- Now, we are told each plant in each block all are potted in the same amount and type of soil, given the same amount of water, and exposed to the same amount of light. This means that each plant in each block is assigned a treatment condition.

- The procedure is repeated by subjecting each plant one after the other in teach Block to different treatments and this will reduce variability.

Looking at all the statements above, it is clear that this is a randomized block design because a randomized block design is when the experimenter/researcher divides members/participants into subgroups called blocks in a manner that the variability within the blocks is less than the variability between the blocks. Thereafter, the participants within each block will now be randomly assigned to treatment conditions.

The best describe about the design for this experiment is random block design.

A randomized block design is an experimental design where the experimental units are in groups called blocks. The treatments are randomly allocated to the experimental units inside each block.
