The head of maintenance at XYZ Rent-A-Car believes that the mean number of miles between services is 4959 miles, with a standard deviation of 448 miles. If he is correct, what is the probability that the mean of a sample of 43 cars would differ from the population mean by less than 111 miles

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.8948 = 89.48% probability that the mean of a sample of 43 cars would differ from the population mean by less than 111 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes 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.

The mean number of miles between services is 4959 miles, with a standard deviation of 448 miles

This means that [tex]\mu = 4959, \sigma = 448[/tex]

Sample of 43:

This means that [tex]n = 43, s = \frac{448}{\sqrt{43}}[/tex]

What is the probability that the mean of a sample of 43 cars would differ from the population mean by less than 111 miles?

p-value of Z when X = 4959 + 111 = 5070 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 4959 - 111 = 4848, that is, probability the sample mean is between these two values.

X = 5070

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{5070 - 4959}{\frac{448}{\sqrt{43}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.62[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.62[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9474

X = 4848

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

[tex]Z = \frac{4848 - 4959}{\frac{448}{\sqrt{43}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.62[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.62[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0526

0.9474 - 0.0526 = 0.8948

0.8948 = 89.48% probability that the mean of a sample of 43 cars would differ from the population mean by less than 111 miles

* The ranges of g(x) and f(x) are the same, but their domains are not the same.
The ranges of g(x) and f(x) are the same, and their domains are also the same.
The domains of g(x) and f(x) are the not the same, and their ranges are also not the same.

Answers

Answer:

In general gf(x) is not equal to fg(x)

Some pairs of functions cannot be composed. Some pairs of functions can be composed only  for certain values of x.

Only with they can be composed some values of x are the ranges of g(x) and f(x) are the same, and their domains are also the same. Or else lies inside it.

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = 3x + 6 - 8, f(x) = √x.

The domain of a composed function is either the same as the domain of the first function, or  else lies inside it

The range of a composed function is either the same as the range of the second function, or else lies inside it.

Or vice versa

Now only positive numbers, or zero, have real square roots. So g is defined only for numbers

greater than or equal to zero. Therefore g(f(x)) can have a value only if f(x) is greater than or

equal to zero. You can work out that

f(x) ≥ 0 only when x ≥3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The the smaller number be [tex]x[/tex]. Since the other number is 3 times as large as the other, we can represent the large number as [tex]3x[/tex]. Because they add up to 44, we have the following equation:

[tex]x+3x=44[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]4x=44[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4:

[tex]x=\frac{44}{4}=\boxed{11}[/tex]

Substitute [tex]x=11[/tex] into [tex]3x[/tex] to find the larger number:

Therefore, the two numbers are 11 and 33.

In how many ways can a sample of 6 keyboards be selected so that exactly two have an electrical defect

Answers

Answer:

15ways

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a combination question since combination has to do with selection. Hence the number of ways sample of 6 keyboards can be selected so that exactly two have an electrical defect is expressed as;

6C2 = 6!/(6-2)!2!

6C2 = 6!/4!2!

6C2 = 6×5×4!/4!×2

6C2 = 6×5/2

6C2 = 30/2

6C2 = 15

4) multiplying by 1/10 (dividing by 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four main operations in math: adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing. Each of the operations has an opposite. Adding and subtracting are opposites and multiplying and dividing are opposites. This means that subtracting can undo adding and vice versa; additionally, dividing can undo multiplying or vice versa. So, to find the opposite of something switch the operation to the opposite and keep the number. However, it is important to note that with multiplying and dividing you can also find the opposite by keeping the operation while changing the number to the reciprocal.
