In a recent study of statistics students, a random sample of students were asked to provide the number of hours per week they spend studying for their statistics class. The results were used to compute confidence intervals for the population mean hours per week spent studying for statistics. The 95% confidence interval for the population mean hours per week that students spend studying for statistics was (6.83, 8.27). In this confidence interval, what is the sample mean (x bar) hours per week spent studying for statistics? Provide your answer as a number rounded to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The sample mean hours per week spent studying for statistics is 7.55 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The (1 - α)% confidence interval for the population mean μ is:

[tex]CI=\bar x\pm z_{\alpha/2}\ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the population mean hours per week that students spend studying for statistics was (6.83, 8.27).

Compute the sample mean hours per week spent studying for statistics as follows:

[tex]\frac{\text{UL + LL}}{2}=\frac{(\bar x+ z_{\alpha/2}\ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})+(\bar x- z_{\alpha/2}\ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})}{2}\\\\\frac{8.27+6.83}{2}=\frac{2\cdot \bar x}{2}\\\\7.55=\bar x[/tex]

Thus, the sample mean hours per week spent studying for statistics is 7.55 hours.

Find g(x) if it is known that g(2t)=8t−1.

Answers

Answer:

g(x) = 4x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear function in the format: g(x) = ax + b

g(2t) is a*(2t)+b

g(2t) = 8t - 1 means that:

when x = 2t, g = 8t - 1.

So

Equaling both sides

8t - 1 = a*2t + b

So

b = -1,

and

2a = 8, a = 8/2, a = 4

So

g(x) = 4x - 1

A bag of fertilizer covers 3000 square feet of lawn. Find how many bags of fertilizer should be purchased to cover a rectangular lawn 230 feet by 180 feet

Answers

Answer:

14 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimension of lawn : 230 feet by 180 feet

area of rectangle is given by length * width

Since lawn is rectangular area of lawn = 230 feet * 180 feet = 41,400 sq. feet

Given that one bag of fertilizer covers 3000 square feet of lawn.

Thus , to find no. of bags required to cover whole lawn will be

total area of lawn/area which one bag of  fertilizer covers

no. of bags required to cover whole lawn = 41,400 sq. feet/3000 sq. feet

    = 13.8 bags.

As no. of bags cannot be fractional , hence rounding bag to nearest unit place is 14 bags.

Consider random samples of size 40 from a population with proportion 0.15.
(a) Find the standard error of the distribution of sample proportions.
Round your answer for the standard error to three decimal places.
mean=______
standard error=_______
(b) Is the sample size large enough for the Central Limit Theorem to apply?
1. Yes
2. No

Answers

Answer:

a) The mean is 0.15 and the standard error is 0.056.

b)  1. Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes 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 proportions p, in samples of size n, the mean is [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and the standard error is [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]. The Central Limit Theorem applies is np > 5 and np(1-p)>5.

In this question:

[tex]n = 40, p = 0.15[/tex]

So

(a) Find the mean and the standard error of the distribution of sample proportions.

[tex]\mu = 0.15, s = \sqrt{\frac{0.15*0.85}{40}} = 0.056[/tex]

So the mean is 0.15 and the standard error is 0.056.

(b) Is the sample size large enough for the Central Limit Theorem to apply?

np = 40*0.15 = 6 > 5

np(1-p) = 40*0.15*0.85 = 5.1>5

So yes

The standard error of the distribution of sample proportions is 0.056 and mean is 0.15.

Yes, the sample size is enough for the Central Limit Theorem to apply.

(a). Given that, size of sample, [tex]n=40[/tex]

        Proportion, [tex]p=0.15[/tex]

In the distribution of sample proportions, mean [tex]\mu=p[/tex]  

and, standard error = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} }[/tex]

So, mean [tex]\mu=0.15[/tex]

Standard error =[tex]\sqrt{\frac{0.15(1-0.15)}{40} }=0.056[/tex]

(b). The Central Limit Theorem applies if np > 5 .

 [tex]np=40*0.15=6>5[/tex]

Thus, the Central Limit Theorem is applied.

" I am concerned with student evaluations because instruction has become a popularity contest for some teachers, " said Professor Smith, who recently completed the study. Results showed higher grades directly corresponded to a more positive evaluation. The last statement above means the study found that:_________.
a) Higher course grades are positively associated with teaching evaluation
b) Teaching evaluation is negatively associated with course grade

Area of rectangle:

14mx10m=140m^2

Area of rectangle:

25mx10=250m^2

Since there are 2 of the long rectangles, you multiply by 2:

250m^2x2=500m^2

Area of triangle:

(24mx14m)/2=168m^2

Since there are 2 triangles, you multiply by 2:

Many random number generators allow users to specify the range of the random numbers to be produced. Suppose that you specify that the random number Y can take any value between 0 and 2. Then the density curve of the outcomes has constant height between 0 and 2, and height 0 elsewhere.
(a) Is the random variable Y discrete or continuous? Why?
This is a discrete random variable because the set of possible values is an interval.
This is a continuous random variable because the set of possible values is an interval.
This is a discrete random variable because it has a finite sample space.
This is a continuous random variable because it has a finite sample space.
(b) What is the height of the density curve between 0 and 2? Draw a graph of the density curve.
(c) Use your graph from (b) and the fact that probability is area under the curve to find P(Y ≤ 1).

Answers

Answer:

a) This is a continuous random variable because the set of possible values is an interval.

b) Height = 0.5

Graph attached.

c) P(Y≤1) = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

a) If the density curve of the outcomes has a constant height, we have a uniform distribution for values between 0 and 2 (outside this range, the density function has a value of 0).

This function is continous and has a value for each real number. The set of possible values has a is an interval between 0 and 2, all with equal probability (the ones that are otuside this interval have 0 probability, so they are not possible values).

b) The height is calculated so that the total area under the density curve has to be equal to 1.

Then, we have to calculate the integral between 0 and 2 of the density function:

[tex]\int\limits^2_0 {U(x)} \, dx =\int\limits^2_0 {H} \, dx =H\int\limits^2_0 dx=H(x_2-x_1)=H(2-0)=1\\\\2H=1\\\\H=0.5[/tex]

The height is H=0.5

(Graph attached)

c) The probability can be calculated by integrating the density function (which is equal to the area under the curve) between 0 and 1, or using the graph.

With the graph, we see that the area is equal to the height (0.5) by the width of the interval (1), so the total area is 0.5 x 1 = 0.5.

The probability P(Y≤1) is equal to 0.5.

Using the uniform distribution, it is found that:

a)

This is a continuous random variable because the set of possible values is an interval.

b)

The height is [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex], and the sketch is given at the end of this answer.

c)

P(Y ≤ 1) = 0.5

An uniform distribution has two bounds, a and b.  

The probability of finding a value of at lower than x is:

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

In this problem, uniformly distributed between 0 and 2, thus [tex]a = 0, b = 2[/tex].

Item a:

Values in an interval, thus continuous. Discrete are for sample spaces, which is not the case here.

Item b:

The height is:

[tex]h = \frac{1}{b - a} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

The graph is sketched at the end of this answer.

Item c:

[tex]P(Y \leq 1) = \frac{1 - 0}{2 - 0} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5[/tex]

Thus, P(Y ≤ 1) = 0.5.

Answers

Answer:   < -3, 3 >

The original translation < 3, -3 > moves the figure 3 units to the right and 3 units down.

We undo this by moving 3 units left and 3 units up, which is what < -3, 3 > describes.

The translation <-3, 3> will move the image back to the preimage original position.

What is translation of image ?

The displacement of a image from one place to another is called translation of image.

What is the original position of the image ?

If a figure is on the origin, i.e. (0, 0), then if turns 3 cells right.

We can see that, It translated as (3,0)

Again if it go down 3 cells, then the translated one is (3, -3)

So, moving it back, we should translate it 3 cells left & 3 cells up.

So after translation, it should be (-3, 3).

What is the diameter of a sphere with a volume of 6329\text{ ft}^3,6329 ft

3

, to the nearest tenth of a foot?

Answers

Answer:

Diameter = 22.9 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that volume of the sphere is 6329 ft³

Now formula for volume of sphere is given as;

V = (4/3)πr³

Thus,

(4/3)πr³ = 6329

Multiply both sides by 3/4 to get;

πr³ = (6329) * 3/4

πr³ = 4746.75

Divide both sides by π to obtain;

r³ = 4746.75/π

r = ∛(4746.75/π)

r = 11.4749 ft

Now, diameter = 2 x radius

Diameter = 2 × 11.4749

Diameter = 22.9498 ft
