Jonathan, a college business student wants to study how many pages of notes fellow classmates took during a semester for a finance class. Past data reveals that pages of notes for a finance college class has a mean of 95 , with standard deviation 25 pages. He plans to take a random sample of 30 such college students and will calculate the mean pages of notes they take to compare to the known pages of notes students take for a finance college class. For these values, the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample means for a sample of size 30 are: μx¯=95 and σx¯=2530√=4.6. What is the probability that the sample mean for a sample of size 30 will be at least 99? You may use a calculator or the portion of the z-table given below.

Answers

Answer 1

Using the normal distribution and the central limit theorem, it is found that there is a 0.1913 = 19.13% probability that the sample mean for a sample of size 30 will be at least 99.

Normal Probability Distribution

In a normal distribution 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]

It 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, which is the percentile of X.By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For the population, the mean and the standard deviation are given by, respectively, [tex]\mu = 95[/tex] and [tex]\sigma = 25[/tex].

For a sample of 30, we have that:

[tex]n = 30, s = \frac{25}{\sqrt{30}} = 4.6[/tex]

The probability that the sample mean for a sample of size 30 will be at least 99 is one subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 99, hence:

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{99 - 95}{4.6}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.87[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.87[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8078.

1 - 0.8087 = 0.1913.

0.1913 = 19.13% probability that the sample mean for a sample of size 30 will be at least 99.

Answers

Answer:

a) The mean of the probability distribution = 0.6

b) The variance of the probability distribution = 0.3

c) The standard deviation of the probability distribution = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

number of dogs per household in a small town

Dogs   Probability  Expected  Mean Diff    Mean Diff.

                               Value                            Squared

0          0.650           0               -0.569         0.32376

1           0.216            0.216        -0.353          0.12461

2         0.087            0.174         -0.395          0.15603

3          0.026            0.078       -0.491            0.24108

4          0.014             0.056       -0.513           0.26317

5          0.009          0.045       -0.524           0.27458

The mean =           0.569 (Sum of expected value)                          

Variance = mean of squared differences = 0.27665 (1.38323/5)

Standard deviation = square root of variance = 0.526 = 0.5

The mean, variance and standard deviation of the considered probability distribution are evaluated to be:

Mean of the distribution = 0.569Variance of the distribution = 0.923 approxStandard deviation of the distribution = 0.96 approx

How to find the mean (expectation) and variance of a random variable?

Supposing that the considered random variable is discrete, we get:

[tex]Mean = E(X) = \sum_{\forall x_i} f(x_i)x_i\\\\Variance = Var(X) = (\sum_{\forall x_i} f(x_i)x^2_i) - (E(X))^2\\[/tex]

As standard deviation is positive root of variance, thus,

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt {Var(X)}[/tex]

where [tex]x_i; \: \: i = 1,2, ... ,n[/tex] is its n data values

and  [tex]f(x_i)[/tex] is the probability of  [tex]X = x_i[/tex]

For this case, let we suppose that:

X = number of dogs per household in the considered town.

Then we have the probability distribution for values of X as:

Number of dogs     Probability

              0                  0.650

              1                   0.216

              2                  0.087

              3                  0.026

              4                  0.014

              5                  0.009

Thus, we get:

Mean of X : E(X) = [tex]0 \times 0.650 + 1 \times 0.216 + 2 \times 0087 + 3 \times 0.026 + 4 \times 0.014 + 5 \times 0.009 = 0.569[/tex]

Variance of X:

Var(X) =

[tex](0^2 \times 0.650 + 1^2 \times 0.216 + 2^2 \times 0.087 + 3^2 \times 0.026 + 4^2 \times (0.014)\\ + 5^2 \times (0.009)) - (0.569)^2 \approx 0.923[/tex]

Standard deviation of X = [tex]\sigma = \sqrt {Var(X)} \approx \sqrt{0.923} \approx 0.96[/tex]

Thus, the mean, variance and standard deviation of the considered probability distribution are evaluated to be:

Mean of the distribution = 0.569Variance of the distribution = 0.923 approxStandard deviation of the distribution = 0.96 approx

how many real solutions does x²+8x+20=0 have?​

Answers

Answer:

No real solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the discriminant formula, D = b² - 4ac

D = b² - 4ac

Plug in b, a, and c:

D = b² - 4ac

D = (8)² - 4(1)(20)

D = 64 - 80

D = -16

Since the discriminant is negative, there are no real solutions

Since the solution is a complex value, hence the equation has no real solutions

Givne the quadratic expression x²+8x+20 = 0

Factorizing the function

x²+8x+20 = 0

x = -8±√8²-4(20)/2

x = -8±√64-80/2

x = -8±√-16/2

x = -8±4i/2

x = -4±2i

Since the solution is a complex value, hence the equation has no real solutions

Write a short story that could represent this math problem.

Answers

Answer:

  Once upon a time a troll was walking down a deep dark hallway, there was no light anywhere that he could see and he was starting to get scared of what could happen to him. But then out of the blue he saw something, something was would change his life forever, he saw a pigeon. Now you might think "Oh, a pigeon, how could that have changed his life?' Now the answer is kind of mundane but is deeper than you might think. The simple answer as to why the pigeon would change his life is because it gave the troll hope, hope that there is an exit. You see, the troll thought if the pigeon found there way into this pitch black hallway, then there must be a way in and hence a way out.

  Now listen here, there's something that I wasn't telling you at the beginning of the story about the pigeon, the pigeon was also glowing. This is very useful obviously because it gave the troll some kind of light. Again, it gave the troll hope. Now, being a troll you might think that he would just snatch the pigeon and hold it for light, but this troll wasn't like other trolls, he had the capability to think before he used brute force to change something. So what the troll though was "If I just follow the pigeon then it might lead me to the exit because they have natural navigation in their brains"

 Let's skip a while into the future, the troll followed and followed the pigeon for what felt like days, but in reality it was more like 3 hours. But then, the troll saw something that he thought he would never see again; sun light. As soon as the troll saw this, he started running and running towards the light, but as fast as he was running, the light seemed to get farther and farther away from him, then... POOF the troll was gone...

  The troll found himself in a very lit up room, almost pure white all around him, which scorched his eyes because he was just in a pitch black room for hours. His ears were ringing and he was in pain, after a while all of that stopped, he was able to see clearly, he felt great, and his ears stopped ringing. What he saw was a very tall thin figure looking down at him from a room of pure white. The figure bent their neck and got right in the trolls face. The figure brought his left hand up to the trolls face, right next to his ear and snapped. The sound of a monstrous click sound right in the trolls ears hurt. The troll jumped back in fear but as soon as the click happened he saw a thing in his vision, a thing he new wasn't actually in the real world as it seemed to follow his eyes where ever he looked. It was, now i know this might sound stupid, I'm not here to imagine a story, I'm simply here to reenact the story of the troll. What he saw was a math problem, a grid was in his vision. It was a 4 by 6 grid.

 The tall shadow figure was now back where the troll saw him originally, he was no longer bent and he seemed to not have arms anymore, just a tall dark figure with a cloak. The troll then began to hear a voice which seemed to come from everywhere. It was a deep voice that was very muffled, it said "Do this math problem and go back to your world. Get it correct and everything will go back to normal, but fail; and I'll have your soul" The troll was about to have an adventure of a lifetime...

Answer:

The total plots of vegetable cloud will be: 19

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question statement, it is clear that the cloud has [tex]8\frac{4}{15}[/tex] plots of pechay, [tex]5\frac{1}{3}[/tex] plots of eggplants and [tex]5\frac{2}{5}[/tex] plots of okra.

so, Just add all the plots to get the total plots of the vegetable cloud.

i.e.

[tex]8\frac{4}{15}+5\frac{1}{3}+5\frac{2}{5}=\frac{124}{15}+\frac{16}{3}+\frac{27}{5}[/tex]

                       [tex]=\frac{124}{15}+\frac{80}{15}+\frac{81}{15}[/tex]

                       [tex]=\frac{124+80+81}{15}[/tex]

Therefore, the total plots of vegetable cloud will be: 19

               

A new company is hiring employees rapidly. Everyday the number of employees doubles in size. If it takes 48 days for the company to be at full capacity, how many days would it take for the company to be at half capacity?

Answers

Answer:

It would take the company 47 days to be at half capacity.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, it is stated that the number of employees doubles in size everyday. This implies that the current day capacity is equal to the previous day capacity. This can be written in a mathematical form as follows:

Current day capacity = Previous day capacity * 2 ......................... (1)

We can assume that the current day capacity which is 48th day in this question is equal to 100 employees. That is;

Current day capacity = 48th day capacity = 100

Substituting this into equation (1) above and solve for the previous day capacity, we have:

100 = Previous day capacity * 2

Previous day capacity = 100 / 2 = 50

Since 50 is half of 100 and the previous day is 47th day, it therefore implies that It would take the company 47 days to be at half capacity.

A particular fruitâs weights are normally distributed, with a mean of 598 grams and a standard deviation of 6 grams. The heaviest 8% of fruits weigh more than how many grams? Give your answer to the nearest gram.

Answers

Answer:

The 8% of the fruit weigh more than [tex]x=606.43 \ g[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The mean is  [tex]\mu = 598 \ g[/tex]

    The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 6 \ g[/tex]

Generally the 8% is mathematically represented as

    [tex]P(X > x) = 0.08[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(X > x) = P ( \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma }>\frac{x - 598}{6} )=0.08[/tex]

[tex]\frac{X -\mu}{\sigma }  =  Z (The  \ standardized \  value\  of  \ X )[/tex]

       [tex]P(X > x) = P ( Z >\frac{x - 598}{6} )=0.08[/tex]

From the normal distribution table the critical value corresponding  area representing 0.08 towards the right tail of the curve is

       [tex]z = 1.405[/tex]

So

       [tex]\frac{x- 598}{6} = 1.405[/tex]

=> [tex]x=606.43 \ g[/tex]
