a. What is the average vacancy rate?
b. What is the variance?
c. What is the Standard Deviation?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex](a)\ \bar x = 7.07[/tex]

[tex](b)\ \sigma^2 = 18.67[/tex]

[tex](c)\ \sigma = 4.32[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\begin{array}{cc}{Rate (\%)} & {f} & {0-3} & {10} & {3-6} & {9} & {6-9} & {8} & {9-12} & {7} & {12-15} & {8} \ \end{array}[/tex]

Solving (a): The average vacancy rate

First, we calculate the class midpoint (x). This is the mean of the class boundaries.

[tex]x = \frac{0+3}{2} = 1.5[/tex]     [tex]x = \frac{3+6}{2} = 4.5[/tex]    [tex]x = \frac{6+9}{2} = 7.5[/tex]

When done for the whole class, the frequency table becomes:

[tex]\begin{array}{ccc}{Rate (\%)} & {f} & {x} & {0-3} & {10} &{1.5}& {3-6} & {9} &{4.5}& {6-9} & {8} & {7.5}&{9-12} & {7} &{10.5}& {12-15} & {8} &{13.5}\ \end{array}[/tex]

The average rate is:

[tex]\bar x = \frac{\sum fx}{\sum f}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x = \frac{10*1.5 + 9*4.5+8*7.5+7*10.5+8*13.5}{10+9+8+7+8}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x = \frac{297}{42}[/tex]

[tex]\bar x = 7.07[/tex]

Solving (b): The variance

This is calculated as:

[tex]\sigma^2 = \frac{\sum f(x -\bar x)^2}{\sum f}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma^2 = \frac{10(1.5-7.07)^2 + 9(4.5-7.07)^2+8(7.5-7.07)^2+7(10.5-7.07)^2+8(13.5-7.07)^2}{10+9+8+7+8}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma^2 = \frac{784.2858}{42}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma^2 = 18.67[/tex]

Solving (c): The standard deviation.

This is calculated as:

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\sigma^2[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{18.67[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = 4.32[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

  (c)  g(x) = -f(x) +1

Step-by-step explanation:

We really only need to consider one point on f(x) and/or g(x). We can look at the y-intercepts.

  f(0) = 4  and  g(0) = -3

Looking at the answer choices, we see ...

  A. -f(0) -1 = -4 -1 = -5 ≠ g(0)

  B. f(0 -1) = f(-1) = 1 ≠ g(0)

  C. -f(0) +1 = -4 +1 = -3 = g(0) . . . . . matches requirements

  D. -f(0) = -4 ≠ g(0)

The relation between f(x) and g(x) is g(x) = -f(x) +1.

Researchers believe that 24.5% of the adults in the United States are obese. A Gallup poll examined the rate of obesity in America with a survey 86,664 randomly sampled U.S. adults. Of the adults surveyed, 23,053 said that they were obese. Is this enough evidence to state that more than 24.5% of all adults in the U.S. are obese

Answers

Answer:

The p-value of the test is 0 < 0.05(standard significance level), which means that this is enough evidence to state that more than 24.5% of all adults in the U.S. are obese

Step-by-step explanation:

Researchers believe that 24.5% of the adults in the United States are obese. Test if there is enough evidence to state that more than 24.5% of all adults in the U.S. are obese.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of 24.5% or less, that is:

[tex]H_0: p \leq 0.245[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if this proportion is greater than 24.5%, that is:

[tex]H_1: p > 0.245[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.245 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.245, \sigma = \sqrt{0.245*0.755}[/tex]

Survey 86,664 randomly sampled U.S. adults. Of the adults surveyed, 23,053 said that they were obese.

This means that [tex]n = 86664, X = \frac{23053}{86664} = 0.266[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{0.266 - 0.245}{\frac{\sqrt{0.245*0.755}}{\sqrt{86664}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = 14.37[/tex]

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample proportion of 0.266 or higher, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of z = 14.37.

The p-value of z = 14.37 is 1.

1 - 1 = 0

The p-value of the test is 0 < 0.05(standard significance level), which means that this is enough evidence to state that more than 24.5% of all adults in the U.S. are obese

  3x = 6 . . . . . . . . . divide by °, subtract 24

  x = 2 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

Additional comment

What matters here is the relationship between the two marked acute angles. The fact that point Q is equidistant from the sides of angle TSR tells you that QS is an angle bisector and the two angles have equal measures. (The definition of an angle bisector is that it is equidistant from the sides of the angle.)

Recognition that the two triangles are congruent is another way to see that the marked acute angles have the same measure. The triangle congruence can be claimed on the basis of the HL theorem, since both are right triangles, have the same hypotenuse (QS), and have legs (QT, QR) with the same measure.

Answers

Answer:

The slope of 5 means that for each product sold, the profit increases by 5, and the intercept of -2500 means that if no products are sold, the company loses 2500.

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear function:

A linear function has the following format:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

In which m is the slope, that is, by how much y changes for each unit of x, and b is the y-intercept, which is the values of y when x = 0.

In this question:

[tex]p(q) = 5q - 2500[/tex]

p is the profit in dollars and q is the quantity of its product sold.

a) Explain what the slope and y-intercept mean in the context of the problem.

1. Determine the length and perimeter of Laura's property.

Answers

Answer:

length: 40 mperimeter: 136 marea: 653 m²volume: 6.52 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

The outer dimensions of the property are 20 squares (length) by 14 squares. Each square is 2 m on a side, so the overall length of the property is ...

  (20 squares)×(2 m/square) = 40 m . . . . length

The overall width of the property is ...

  (14 squares)×(2 m/square) = 28 m . . . . width

Then the perimeter is ...

  P = 2(length + width) = 2(40 +28) m = 136 m . . . . perimeter

__

Additional comment

We have computed the perimeter as though the plot were a rectangle. If you carefully consider the total length of horizontal edges and the total length of vertical edges, you see that those totals are the same as they would be for a 20×14 square (40×28 m) rectangle.

_____

2.

The area of open ground is perhaps most easily computed by finding the area that must be subtracted from the overall 20×14 square rectangle. Those exclusions will be (in dimensions of squares) ...

lower right corner: 8 wide by 3 high = 24 squaresfish pond: 2 wide by 3 high = 6 squaresveranda: 4 wide by 4 high = 16 squareshouse: 9 wide by 7 high = 63 squarespavement: 4 wide by 2 high = 8 squares

The total area of exclusions is 24+6+16+63+8 = 117 squares. The bounding rectangle is 20 by 14 = 280 squares, so the open ground is ...

  280 squares - 117 squares = 163 squares

At (2 m)(2 m) = 4 m² per grid square, that's an area of ...

  (163 squares)(4 m²/square) = 652 m²

The surface area of the open ground is 652 m².

_____

3.

The volume is given by the formula ...

  V = Bh

where B is the base area and h is the height.

1 cm = 1/100 m = 0.01 m thickness. That means the total volume is ...

  V = (652 m²)(0.01 m) = 6.52 m³

A particular fruit's weights are normally distributed, with a mean of 275 grams and a standard deviation of 19 grams. If you pick one fruit at random, what is the probability that it will weigh between 244 grams and 305 grams?

Answers

Answer:

0.8913 = 89.13% probability that it will weigh between 244 grams and 305 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

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

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean of 275 grams and a standard deviation of 19 grams

This means that [tex]\mu = 275, \sigma = 19[/tex]

What is the probability that it will weigh between 244 grams and 305 grams?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 305 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 244.

X = 305

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

[tex]Z = \frac{305 - 275}{19}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.58[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.58[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9429.

X = 244

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

[tex]Z = \frac{244 - 275}{19}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.63[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.63[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0516

0.9429 - 0.0516 = 0.8913

0.8913 = 89.13% probability that it will weigh between 244 grams and 305 grams.
