The amount people whopay for cable service varies quite a bit, but the mean

monthly fee is $142 and the standard deviation is $29. The distribution is not

Normal. Many people pay about $76 for basic cable and about $160 for premium

service, but some pay much more. A sample survey is designed to ask a simple

random sample of 1,500 cable service customers how much they pay. Let X be the

mean amount paid.

Part A: What are the mean and standard deviation of the sample distribution of X?

Show your work and justify your reasoning. (4 points)

Part B: What is the shape of the sampling distribution of X? Justify your answer. (2

points)

Part C: What is the probability that the average cable service paid by the sample of

cable service customers will exceed $143? Show your work. (4 points) (10 points)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$142 ; 0.749 ; Normal ; 0.090938

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean and standard deviation :

The mean of the distribution x = $142, because the sample size is sufficiently large, the distribution will be approximately normal (central limit theorem).

Standard deviation of distribution : σ/ sqrt(n)

= 29 / sqrt(1500)

= 0.749

B.)

Shape of sampling distribution of X.

The shape of the sampling distribution will be approximately normal due to the large sample size used. This is according to the central limit theorem whereby distribution of sample converges to normal with increasing sample size. Mean ~ N(142, 0.749²)

C.)

P(X > 143)

Using the relation :

Z = (x - mean) / standard error

Z = 143 - 142) / 0.7489

Z = 1.335

P(Z > 1.335) :

Using the Z probability calculator :

P(Z > 1.335) = 0.090938

Umm.. what’s the question?

a farmer has enough food to feed 50 animals in his cattle for 15 days . how long will the food last if there are 25 more animals in his cattle?​

Answers

Answer:

The food will last for 10 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions

The amount of food the farmer needs to feed his animals is proportional to the number of animals and to the number of days they are fed.

This can be written as:

Food=k*N*D

Where k is a constant, N is the number of animals and D is the number of days.

We know that the farmer has enough food to feed N=50 animals for D=15 days, thus:

Food=k*50*15=750k

If the same amount of food is used for 50+25=75 animals, then:

750k=k*75*D

Simplifying:

750=75*D

Dividing by 75:

D=10

The food will last for 10 days

a) Maximum: 10

To determine the amplitude we first recognize the midline, so I will answer part d first,

d) We have our maximum as 10, and our minimum as - 2. The midline, by it's name, is a line that divides the graph in half. What we do is determine the average of 10 and - 2 => 10 - 2/2 = 8/2 = 4

Midline: y = 4

Now I will go back to part c,

c) The amplitude would be 6. We take the difference between the maximum and the midline, or the minimum and the midline.

Simplify and write the trigonometric expression in terms of sine and cosine:
tan u + cot u = 1/f(u)

Answers

Answer:

we have the expression as;

1/sin u cos u

Step-by-step explanation:

tan u = sin u/cos u

cot u = cos u/sin u

Thus;

sin u/cos u + cos u/sin u

The lcm is sin u cos u

Thus, we have that;

(sin^2 u + cos^2 u)/sin u cos u

But ; sin^2 u + cos^2 u = 1

so we have ;

1/sin u cos u

The requested trigonometric expression in terms of sine and cosine is;

[tex]f(u) = \frac{1}{ \frac{sinu}{cosu} + \frac{cosu}{sinu} } [/tex]

Trigonometric expressions:

We must remember,

tan u = sin(u)/cos(u)

and cot u = cos(u)/sin(u).

Therefore we have;

sin(u)/cos(u) + cos(u)/sin(u) = 1/f(u)

By Cross-product; we have;

[tex]f(u) = \frac{1}{ \frac{sinu}{cosu} + \frac{cosu}{sinu} } [/tex]

Therefore, the required function, f(u) in terms of sin u and cos u is as represented above.

Answers

Answer:

26m

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a parallelogram bisects each other. Hence the length of UV is equal to the length of VS

UV = VS

x+3 = 2x-7

x-2x = -7-3

-x = -10

x = 10

Get SU

SU = UV+VS

SU = x+3+2x-7

SU = 3x-4

Substitute x=10 into the expression

SU = 3(10)-4

SU = 30-4

SU = 26m
