A recent study showed that the modern working person experiences an average of 2.1 hours per day of distractions (phone calls, emails, impromptu visits, etc.). A random sample of 50 workers for a large corporation found that these workers were distracted an average of 1.8 hours per day and the population standard deviation was 20 minutes. Estimate the true mean population distraction time with 90% confidence, and compare your answer to that of the study.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

True mean population distraction time with 90% confidence is

C.I[103.34 ,112.66] at 108

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Study Average hrs =2.1 =2.1 *60=126 minutes

For sample mean =1.8 *60= 108 minutes

S.D=20  and n=50

To Find:

True mean population distraction time with 90% confidence,

Solution:

90% C.I. means 90 % will fall in true mean and other will not .

So for that calculating the

Standard error=S.D/Sqrt(n)

S.E=20/Sqrt(50)

S.E=2.828

For 90% Confidence interval Z=1.65

C.I= mean±Z*Standard error

C.I=108±1.65*2.828

C.I=108±4.662

Hence C.I will range from 103.34 to 112.66

Study mean =126 minutes .

Here  it ranges from 103.34 to 112.66

Answer 2

In this exercise we have to use the knowledge of probability to calculate this we will use percentage as:

[tex]C.I= 108[/tex]

Given the following information in the text we find that:

Study Average=126 minutesFor sample mean =108 minutesS.D=20  and n=50

Then calculating the probability we find that:

[tex]Standard error=S.D/\sqrt(n)\\ S.E=20/\sqrt(50)\\ S.E=2.828\\ Z=1.65\\ C.I=108+4.662 [/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

∠C=34

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees, so

∠A +∠B+ ∠C=180

We know that ∠A is 108, and ∠B is 38, so we can substitute them in

108+38+∠C=180

Combine like terms by adding 108 and 38

146+∠C=180

Subtract 146 from both sides

∠C=34

2. -7(-4-3m)=112 what is m

3.-182=7(2b-8)+7b what is b

4. -101 = -5(8x-5) -6 what is x

Answers

Answer:

1. x=-3

2. m=4

3. -6=b

4. x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 7(3-3x)=84 what is x

- Distribute the 7 using distributive property, which will give you 21-21x=84.

- Add 21 to both sides to aim to isolate the x variable, which will give you -23x=63.

- Divide both sides by the coefficient of x, -23, to finally get x by itself: x=-3

2. -7(-4-3m)=112 what is m

- Distribute the -7 using distributive property, which will give you 28+21m=112. Be wary of negatives.

- Subtract 28 to both sides, which will give you 21m=84.

- Divide both sides by 21 (the coefficient of m) to get m by itself: m=4

3.-182=7(2b-8)+7b what is b

- Distribute the 7 using distributive property, which will give you -182=14b-56+7b

- Add like terms to get -182=21b-56.

- Add both sides by 56, which will get you -126=21b.

- Divide both sides by the coefficient of b, 21, to get b by itself: -6=b

4. -101 = -5(8x-5) -6 what is x

- Distribute the -5 using distributive property, which will give you -101=-40x+25-6. Beware of negatives.

- Add like terms to get -101=-40x+19.

- Subtract both sides by 19 to get -120=-40x.

- Divide both sides by 40 (the coefficient of x) to get 3=x.

You roll a number cube one time
What is the probability of not rolling a number more than 62 Write your
answer as a fraction.​

Answers

Answer:

6/6 or 1/1

Step-by-step explanation:

A standard number cube has 6 sides to it. Therefore there are 6 possibilities, as you can roll either a 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6.

The question is asking what the probability is for not rolling a number more than 62. To reword the question to get rid of the confusing 'not', "What is the probability of rolling a number less than 62?"

All the possibilities on the dice are less than 62, therefore it is guaranteed you will not roll a number more than 62. The probability is 1, or written as a fraction 1/1, or 6/6, since 6 sides of the 6 sided cube are less than 62.

The population of a town is increasing at a rate of 2.8% per year. In 2001 the town had a population of 34,229. Find the population of the town in 2013

Answers

Answer:

The population of the town in 2013 is 47,677. (to the nearest whole number)

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate this, we will compare the increase to the increase of the present value of an amount of money invested in 2001, increasing at an annual percentage rate of 2.8%, to yield the future value worth a certain amount in 2013. To calculate, the formula below is used:

FV = [tex]PV ( 1 + \frac{i}{n}) ^{n*t}[/tex]

where:

FV = Future Value = ???

PV = present value = 34,229

i = interest in decimal = 2.8% = 0.028

n = frequency of compounding period per year = 1

t = number of compounding years = 2001 to 2013 = 12 years.

FV = [tex]34,229(1+\frac{0.028}{1} )^{(1*12)}[/tex]

FV = 34,229 × (1.028)¹²

FV = 47,677.29 = 47,677 (to the nearest whole number)

The City Zoo has different admission prices for adults and children. When three adults and two children went to the zoo, the bill was $77.50. If two adults and three children got in for $70.00 then what is the price of an adult's ticket and what is the price of a child's ticket?

Answers

Answer:

The price of an adult's ticket is $18.5 and price of a child's ticket is $11.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Let x dollars be the cost of an adult's ticket and y dollars be the cost of a child's ticket.

The cost of three adults and two children tickets is $77.50

Thus, we can write the equation:

[tex]3x + 2y = 77.50[/tex]

The cost of two adults and three children tickets is $70.00

Thus, we can write the equation:

[tex]2x+3y = 70[/tex]

Solving the two equations, we get

[tex]6x+4y-(6x+9y) = 155-210\\\Rightarrow -5y = -55\\\Rightarrow y = 11\\\Rightarrow 2x + 33 = 70\\\Rightarrow x = 18.5[/tex]

Thus, the price of an adult's ticket is $18.5 and price of a child's ticket is $11.

Explanation:

22,853 is 4/5 of the customers, so we set up an equation where 22,853 over x is equal to 4 over 5. Cross multiply to get x * 4 = 22,853 * 5. Divide both sides by 4 to get 28,566.25.

Colin rolls a fair dice and flips a fair coin.
What is the probability of obtaining a 3 and a tail?
Give your answer in its simplest form.

Answers

Final answer:

The probability of Colin getting a 3 on a die and a tail on a coin simultaneously is 1/12, obtained by multiplying the individual probabilities (1/6 for the die and 1/2 for the coin).

Explanation:

The probability of obtaining a 3 when rolling a fair dice is 1/6, since a dice has 6 sides and only one of them is a 3. Similarly, the probability of obtaining a tail when flipping a fair coin is 1/2, because a coin has 2 sides, heads and tails.

The probability of both events happening (rolling a 3 and flipping a tail) is the multiplication of their individual probabilities. Hence, the probability is 1/6 times 1/2 equals 1/12.

So, the final simplified form of the probability of Colin rolling a 3 on a die and flipping a tail on a coin, according to the rules of probability, is 1/12.

To find the probability of rolling a 3 and flipping a tail, we need to determine the probability of rolling a 3 on the dice and the probability of flipping a tail on the coin, and then multiply these probabilities together. A fair dice has 6 equally likely outcomes, so the probability of rolling a 3 is 1/6. Similarly, a fair coin has 2 equally likely outcomes, so the probability of flipping a tail is 1/2. Multiplying these probabilities gives us (1/6) * (1/2) = 1/12. Therefore, the probability of obtaining a 3 and a tail is 1/12 in its simplest form.

A group of students is timed while sprinting 100 meters. Each student’s speed can be found by dividing 100 m by their time. Is each statement true or false? Explain your reasoning.
Speed is a function of time.
Time is a function of distance.
Speed is a function of number of students racing.
Time is a function of speed.


Answers

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

since, S= D/T the distance traveled would only be 100m, it is a consatnt variable dividing it with the time it takes to reach that distance would be its speed. Unless there is an acceleration happening in that process the speed would change depending on the situation.

Final answer:

Speed is a function of time and time is a function of speed, with these relationships demonstrated through the equations speed = distance/time and time = distance/speed. The number of students racing does not affect an individual's speed.

Explanation:

A student asked several questions related to speed, distance, and time while analyzing a 100-meter sprint. To address these questions, we will look at the relationships between these quantities.

Speed is a function of time: True. Speed can be calculated as the distance traveled divided by the time it took, so if you know the time, you can calculate the speed using the equation speed = distance/time.

Time is a function of distance: False. Time can be a function of speed and distance (time = distance/speed), but this question does not provide information indicating that time is directly dependent on distance alone.

Speed is a function of the number of students racing: False. The speed of a student is independent of the number of students racing; it is determined by the individual's performance (distance/time).

Time is a function of speed: True. Given a constant distance, time can be calculated by dividing the distance by the speed (time = distance/speed).

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope of a line passing through two points by using the following

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = (-9 - -4)/(-3 - 22)

    = (-9+4)/(-25)

    = -5/ -25

   = 1/5

Final answer:

The slope of the line that passes through the points (22,-4) and (−3,-9) is calculated using the formula for slope. When calculated, the slope is found to be 1/5

Explanation:

The slope of a line passing through two given points can be calculated using the formula: m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). Here, (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are the coordinates of the two points.

In the given question, the points are (22,-4) and (−3,-9). When the values are entered into the formula, we obtain:

m = (-9 - (-4)) / (-3 - 22) = -5 / -25 = 1/5

So, the slope of the line passing through the points (22,-4) and (−3,-9) is 1/5.
