The lengths of pregnancies are normally distributed with a mean of days and a standard deviation of days. a. Find the probability of a pregnancy lasting days or longer. b. If the length of pregnancy is in the lowest ​%, then the baby is premature. Find the length that separates premature babies from those who are not premature.

Answers

Answer:

a) The probability of a pregnancy lasting X days or longer is given by 1 subtracted by the p-value of [tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex], in which [tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean and [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation.

b) We have to find X when Z has a p-value of [tex]\frac{a}{100}[/tex], and X is given by: [tex]X = \mu - Z\sigma[/tex], in which [tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean and [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation.

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.

In this question:

Mean [tex]\mu[/tex], standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex]

a. Find the probability of a pregnancy lasting X days or longer.

The probability of a pregnancy lasting X days or longer is given by 1 subtracted by the p-value of [tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex], in which [tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean and [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation.

b. If the length of pregnancy is in the lowest a​%, then the baby is premature. Find the length that separates premature babies from those who are not premature.

We have to find X when Z has a p-value of [tex]\frac{a}{100}[/tex], and X is given by: [tex]X = \mu - Z\sigma[/tex], in which [tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean and [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation.

Explanation:

The given stem and leaf plot leads to this data set

68,68,69,69

71,72,77,77,78,78

80,81

I broke it up to have each tens digit get its own row. That way it's bit more readable.

Unfortunately, the term "average" in math is very vague. It could mean one of the following

meanmedianmode

To get the mean (specifically the arithmetic mean), we will add up the values and then divide by n = 12 because there are 12 values in the list above. Adding said values gets us

68+68+69+69+71+72+77+77+78+78+80+81 = 888

Dividing that over 12 then leads to 888/12 = 74

The arithmetic mean is 74.

-------------

To get the median, we would first sort the data set. Though that is already done for us. From here, we locate the middle-most item.

Since there are n = 12 items here, the middle item is between slot n/2 = 12/2 = 6 and slot 7

The values in slots 6 and 7 are 72 and 77 respectively. The midpoint of those values is (72+77)/2 = 149/2 = 74.5

The median is 74.5

-------------

The mode is possibly the quickest measure of center or average we can compute. We simply look at the value that shows up the most. In this case, the following values show up twice (which is the most frequent of all the values)

68697778

They are all tied for the title of "mode". It's possible to have more than one mode, so we say the mode is the set {68,69,77,78}.

Due to the nature of multiple modes, the mode is often not a good measure of center (but it's still a possibility; especially for categorical data).

In this case, I think the mean or median is a better measure of center.

Since there aren't any outliers, the mean is the best measure of center in this case. Luckily, the mean and median (74 and 74.5 respectively) are fairly close to one another.

-------------

To summarize everything, the term "average" is too vague and it could refer to the mean, median or mode. In this problem, the mean is possibly the best measure of center since there aren't any outliers and the mode isn't one single value.

We found the following:

mean = 74median = 74.5mode = {68,69,77,78}

It's very likely your teacher is wanting the mean.

Matthew participates in a study that is looking at how confident students at SUNY Albany are. The mean score on the scale is 50. The distribution has a standard deviation of 10 and is normally distributed. Matthew scores a 65. What percentage of people could be expected to score the same as Matthew or higher on this scale

Answers

Answer:

The percentage of people that could be expected to score the same as Matthew or higher on this scale is:

= 93.3%.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Mean score on the scale, μ = 50

Distribution's standard deviation, σ = 10

Matthew scores, x = 65

Calculating the Z-score:

Z-score = (x – μ) / σ

= (65-50)/10

= 1.5

The probability based on a Z-score of 1.5 is 0.93319

Therefore, the percentage of people that could be expected to score the same as Matthew or higher on this scale is 93.3%.

How do I solve this. Y=f(x)+a moves the function

Answers

Answer:

up

Step-by-step explanation:

for linear functions, adding a constant will increase the y value by two and shift the line up two units on the graph.

Answer: It moves the function 'a' units up if a > 0. Or it moves the function |a| units down if a < 0.

Explanation:

Consider an example like y = f(x)+2. This shifts the f(x) curve 2 units up because we're adding 2 to each y or f(x) output. A point like (5,7) shifts up to (5,9).

As another example, y = f(x)-5 moves the curve 5 units down.

In the first example, we had a > 0 which moved the function 'a' units up (a = 2 in that case). The second example had a = -5 which means a < 0, so that's why we shifted |a| = |-5| = 5 units down.

Find the Taylor series for f(x) centered at the given value of a. (Assume that f has a power series expansion. Do not show that Rn(x)→0 . f(x)=lnx, a=

Answers

Answer:

Here we just want to find the Taylor series for f(x) = ln(x), centered at the value of a (which we do not know).

Remember that the general Taylor expansion is:

[tex]f(x) = f(a) + f'(a)*(x - a) + \frac{1}{2!}*f''(a)(x -a)^2 + ...[/tex]

for our function we have:

f'(x) =  1/x

f''(x) = -1/x^2

f'''(x) =  (1/2)*(1/x^3)

this is enough, now just let's write the series:

[tex]f(x) = ln(a) + \frac{1}{a} *(x - a) - \frac{1}{2!} *\frac{1}{a^2} *(x - a)^2 + \frac{1}{3!} *\frac{1}{2*a^3} *(x - a)^3 + ....[/tex]

This is the Taylor series to 3rd degree, you just need to change the value of a for the required value.

Find area between two curves

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The "enclosed area" can be taken to mean different things. Here, we consider it to mean the finite area bounded between the two curves, regardless of which curve is higher value than the other.

The area is bounded on the interval [0, 2]. On half that interval y1 > y2; on the other half, y2 > y1. This means the integral of the area between the curves will be different for one part of the interval than for the other. (The curves are symmetric about the point (1, 0).)

The area on the interval [0, 1] is given by the integral ...

  [tex]\displaystyle\int_0^1{(y_1-y_2)}\,dx=\int_0^1{((x-1)^3-(x-1))}\,dx\\\\=\int^1_0{(x(x-1)(x -2))}\,dx=\left.(\frac{x^4}{4}-x^3+x^2)\right|^1_0=\boxed{\frac{1}{4}}[/tex]

The area on the interval [1, 2] is the integral of the opposite integrand, but has the same value.

The positive area over the whole interval from 0 to 2 is 1/4+1/4 = 1/2.

If you simply integrate y2-y1 or y1-y2 over that interval, the result is 0.

Seth and Ted can paint a room in 5 hours if they work together. If Ted were to work by himself, it would take him 2 hours longer than it would take Seth working by himself. How long would it take Seth to paint the room by himself if Ted calls in sick?

Answers

Answer:

9 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = number of hours it would take Seth to work by himself

He would paint 1/x in 1 hour

x + 2 = number of hours it would take Ted to work by himself

He would paint 1/(x + 2) in 1 hour

Seth and Ted = 5 hours

They would paint 1/5 in 1 hour

The equation is this:

1/x + 1/(x + 2) = 1/5

(x + 2)+x/x(x+2) = 1/5

x+2+x / x(x+2) = 1/5

2x + 2 / x(x+2) = 1/5

2x + 2 = x(x + 2)1/5

2x + 2 = (x² + 2x)1/5

5(2x + 2) = x² + 2x

10x + 10 = x² + 2x

x² + 2x - 10x - 10 = 0

x² - 8x - 10 = 0

x = -b ± √b² - 4ac/2a

= -(-8) ± √(-8)² - 4(1)(-10) / 2(1)

= 8 ± √64 - (-40) / 2

= 8 ± √64 + 40) / 2

= 8 ± √104 / 2

= 8 ± 2√26 / 2

= 8/2 ± 2√26/2

= 4 ± √26

= 4 ± 5.0990195135927

= 4 + 5.0990195135927 or 4 - 5.0990195135927

= 9.0990195135927 or -1.Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = number of hours it would take Seth to work by himself

He would paint 1/x in 1 hour

x + 2 = number of hours it would take Ted to work by himself

He would paint 1/(x + 2) in 1 hour

Seth and Ted = 5 hours

They would paint 1/5 in 1 hour

The equation is this:

1/x + 1/(x + 2) = 1/5

(x + 2)+x / x(x+2) = 1/5

x+2+x / x(x+2) = 1/5

2x + 2 / x(x+2) = 1/5

Cross product

2x + 2 = x(x + 2)1/5

2x + 2 = (x² + 2x)1/5

Cross product

5(2x + 2) = x² + 2x

10x + 10 = x² + 2x

x² + 2x - 10x - 10 = 0

x² - 8x - 10 = 0

x = -b ± √b² - 4ac/2a

= -(-8) ± √(-8)² - 4(1)(-10) / 2(1)

= 8 ± √64 - (-40) / 2

= 8 ± √64 + 40) / 2

= 8 ± √104 / 2

= 8 ± 2√26 / 2

= 8/2 ± 2√26/2

= 4 ± √26

= 4 ± 5.0990195135927

= 4 + 5.0990195135927 or 4 - 5.0990195135927

= 9.0990195135927 or -1.0990195135927

Approximately,

x = 9 hours or -1 hour

It can't take Seth negative hours to work

Therefore,

x = number of hours it would take Seth to work by himself = 9 hours

a) Find an exponential model for this data, where t = 0 corresponds to 1999

Answer:

the exponential model for this data will be; y = 222.3( 0.9898 )^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

{ 2005 }, at t = 0, death rate was 222.3

In 2009, { 2009 - 2005 = 4 }, at t = 4 death rate was 213.4

Now, let the exponential equation be;

y = ab^(t)

so at t = 0

222.3 = a × b^(0)

222.3 = a × 1

a = 222.3

at t = 4

213.4 = a × b^(4)

213.4 = 222.3 × b^(4)

b⁴ = 213.4 / 222.3

b = (  213.4 / 222.3 )^(1/4)

b = 0.9898

y = ab^(t)

Hence, the exponential model for this data will be; y = 222.3( 0.9898 )^t
