A survey is to be conducted to determine the average driving in miles by Minnesota State University, Mankato students. The investigator wants to know how large the sample should be so that he/she can be 92% confident on the estimate and the estimate is within 1.5 miles of the true average. A similar study conducted in past and it was found that the standard deviation of the students’ driving distances was 8.2 miles.

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]n=(\frac{1.75(8.2)}{1.5})^2 =91.52 \approx 92[/tex]

So the answer for this case would be n=92 rounded up to the nearest integer

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

[tex]\bar X[/tex] represent the sample mean for the sample  

[tex]\mu[/tex] population mean (variable of interest)

s represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size  

Solution to the problem

The margin of error is given by this formula:

[tex] ME=z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]    (a)

And on this case we have that ME =1.5 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (b) we got:

[tex]n=(\frac{z_{\alpha/2} \sigma}{ME})^2[/tex]   (b)

The critical value for 92% of confidence interval now can be founded using the normal distribution. And in excel we can use this formla to find it:"=-NORM.INV(0.04;0;1)", and we got [tex]z_{\alpha/2}=1.75[/tex], replacing into formula (b) we got:

[tex]n=(\frac{1.75(8.2)}{1.5})^2 =91.52 \approx 92[/tex]

So the answer for this case would be n=92 rounded up to the nearest integer

A group of five friends ate lunch at a restaurant the bill came to $42 And the friends agreed to spilt it equally. which expression represents the number of dollars each person paid?

Answers

Answer:

8.40

Step-by-step explanation:

42 divided by 5 equals 8.40 so each person would have to pay $8.40

Final answer:

The expression to represent the split cost of a $42 bill by five friends is 42 / 5, or $8.40 per person.

Explanation:

The expression representing the number of dollars each person paid when five friends split a $42 lunch bill equally would be $42 divided by 5. This can also be written as 42 / 5, which equals $8.40 per person.

For additional practice, let's look at a similar scenario: Mr. and Mrs. Green and their four children went out to dinner, and the meal cost was $72 with a restaurant-added tip of 18%. To find the total cost of the dinner, first calculate the tip amount by multiplying 18% (or 0.18) by the cost of the meal ($72). The tip would be $12.96. Adding this to the original cost, the total comes to $84.96.

7 or 8 there is at least 6 in this cup

6 or 7 there is at least 6 in this cup

7 or 5 there is a possibility of there being 6

Final answer:

There are either 7 or 5 sweets under each cup. The declaration 'Seven or five' is correct.

Explanation:

Each cup has a declaration about the number of sweets in it: 'Five or six', 'Seven or eight', 'Six or seven', and 'Seven or five'. Only one of the declarations is correct. To find the number of sweets under each cup, we need to analyze the given information.

If the declaration 'Five or six' is correct, then there can be 5 or 6 sweets under the cup. But since there are no other cups with 5 or 6 as a declaration, this declaration cannot be correct.

If the declaration 'Seven or eight' is correct, then there can be 7 or 8 sweets under the cup. But since there are no other cups with 7 or 8 as a declaration, this declaration cannot be correct.

If the declaration 'Six or seven' is correct, then there can be 6 or 7 sweets under the cup. But since there is another cup with the declaration 'Seven or five', and both declarations share the number 7, this declaration cannot be correct.

Therefore, the only remaining declaration 'Seven or five' must be correct. So, there are either 7 or 5 sweets under the cup with this declaration.

In conclusion, there are either 7 or 5 sweets under each cup, and the declaration 'Seven or five' is correct.

Dalgliesh the detective fancies himself a shrewd judge of human nature. In careful tests, it has been discovered that he is right 80 percent of the time about whether a suspect is lying or telling the truth. Dalgliesh says that Jones is lying. The polygraph expert, who is right 100 percent of the time, says that 40 percent of the subjects interviewed by Dagliesh are telling the truth. What is the probability that Jones is lying?

Answers

Answer:

The probability that Jones is lying is 6/7

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will list out 2 different cases when the outcome is a lie

1.probability that Jones tells lies is = 0.6 and probability that dalgiliesh analyses it correctly is 0.8

So the probability that dagliesh correctly analyses that he is telling lies is 0.8*0.6=0.48

2.Probability that Jones tells truth is 0.4 and if dagliesh analyses it incorrectly (which has a probability of 0.2) the outcome(as analysed by dagiliesh) is a lie

So probability that dagliesh analyses Jones truth as a lie is 0.2*.0.4=0.08

Total probability of outcome being a lie is 0.48+0.08=0.56

But we need the probability of Jones actually saying a lie which is nothing but 0.48/0.56= 6/7

The probability of that Jones is lying is [tex]\frac{6}{7}[/tex] .

Probability is defined as, divide favourable outcomes by total outcomes.

First case:

Probability that Jones tells lies is = 0.6

Probability that Dalgliesh analyses it correctly is, =  0.8

Therefore,  the probability that Dalgliesh correctly analyses that Jones is telling lies is,

                       [tex]P=0.8*0.6=0.48[/tex]

Second case :

Probability that Jones tells truth is, =  0.4

Probability of Dalgliesh  analyses it incorrectly that Jones tells truth is,

                                                = 0.2

So, Probability that Dalgliesh analyses Jones truth as a lie is,

                          [tex]0.2*.0.4=0.08[/tex]

Total probability of outcome being a lie is,

                               [tex]0.48+0.08=0.56[/tex]

Thus, Probability of Jones telling lie is,  [tex]=\frac{0.48}{0.56} =\frac{6}{7}[/tex]

Keely is planning a bridal shower for her best friend. At the party, she wants to serve 4 beverages, 3 appetizers, and 4 desserts, but she does not have time to cook. She can choose from 11 bottled drinks, 10 frozen appetizers, and 8 prepared desserts at the supermarket. How many different ways can Keely pick the food and drinks to serve at the bridal shower?

Answers

Answer:

The different ways in which Keely can pick the food and drinks to serve at the bridal shower is 2,772,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Combinations is a mathematical procedure to determine the number of ways to select k items from n different items, without replacement and irrespective of the order of selection.

The formula to compute the combination of k items from n items is:

[tex]{n\choose k}=\frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}[/tex]

The menu for the bridal shower consists of:

Beverages: 4

Appetizers: 3

Dessert: 4

It is provided that Keely does not have time to cook. SO she goes to the supermarket and there she has the following options:

Beverages: 11

Appetizers: 10

Dessert: 8

Compute the number of ways Keely can select 4 beverages from 11 bottled drinks as follows:

[tex]{n\choose k}=\frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}[/tex]

[tex]{11\choose 4}=\frac{11!}{4!(11-4)!}[/tex]

      [tex]=\frac{11!}{4!\times 7!}[/tex]

      [tex]=\frac{11\times 10\times 9\times 8\times 7!}{4!\times 7!}[/tex]

      [tex]=330[/tex]

Keely can select 4 beverages in 330 ways.

Compute the number of ways Keely can select 3 appetizers from 10 frozen appetizers as follows:

[tex]{n\choose k}=\frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}[/tex]

[tex]{10\choose 3}=\frac{10!}{3!(10-3)!}[/tex]

      [tex]=\frac{10!}{3!\times 7!}[/tex]

      [tex]=\frac{10\times 9\times 8\times 7!}{3!\times 7!}[/tex]

      [tex]=120[/tex]

Keely can select 3 appetizers in 120 ways.

Compute the number of ways Keely can select 4 desserts from 8 prepared desserts as follows:

 [tex]{n\choose k}=\frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}[/tex]

 [tex]{8\choose 4}=\frac{8!}{4!(8-4)!}[/tex]

      [tex]=\frac{8!}{4!\times 4!}[/tex]

      [tex]=\frac{8\times 7\times 6\times 5\times 4!}{4!\times 4!}[/tex]

      [tex]=70[/tex]

Keely can select 4 desserts in 70 ways.

Compute the total number of ways in which Keely can select 4 beverages, 3 appetizers, and 4 desserts for the party as follows:

Total number of ways = n (4 beverages) × n (appetizers) × n (dessert)

                                    [tex]={11\choose 4}\times {10\choose 3}\times {8\choose 4}[/tex]

                                    [tex]=330\times 120\times 70\\=2772000[/tex]

Thus, the different ways in which Keely  can pick the food and drinks to serve at the bridal shower is 2,772,000.

In circle K with mLJKL = 112 and
JK = 7 units find area of sector JKL.
Round to the nearest hundredth.​

Answers

Area of the sector JKL is 47.89 unit²

How the area of the sector is calculated

From the figure

Given that

JKL is a sector that subtends ∠JKL at the center of the circle JL.

The radius of the circle is KL or JK

Area of a sector = θ/360 * πr²

where

r is the radius

θ is angle subtended at the center

m∠JKL = 112⁰ = θ

JK = 7 units = radius

Therefore,

Area = 112/360*π(7)²

A = 112/360 * 3.142 * 49

= 17243.296/360

= 47.89 unit²

Therefore, area of the sector JKL is 47.89 unit²

A list of five positive integers has a median of 3 and a mean of 11. What is the maximum possible value of the list's largest element? please ​

Answers

Answer:

47

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the 5 numbers have a mean of 11, the sum of the numbers is 5 X 11 = 55. To make the largest number as large as possible, we make the other numbers must be as small as possible. However, in order for the median to be 3, the middle number must be 3. Since this is the middle number, there must be two other numbers that are at least 3. So, we let three of the other four numbers be 1, 1, and 3 to make them as small as possible. Finally, this means the remaining number is 55 - 1 - 1 - 3 - 3= 47. Hope that helps!

Use a special right triangle to express the cosine of 45 degree as a fraction and as a decimal to the nearest hundredth

Answers

The special triangle you need is a right isosceles triangle, with legs 1 and hypotenuse [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex].

As for every right triangle, you can find of the cosine of an angle using the "adjacent/hypotenuse" ratio.

In this case, the two base angles are equal, and so are the two legs. So, it doesn't matter which angle or leg you'll choose, the ratio will be

[tex]\cos(45)=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}[/tex]

which indeed is both the sine and cosine of 45°

Its approximated value is 0.707...

The cosine of 45 degree as a fraction and as a decimal to the nearest hundredth are  [tex]\( \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \)[/tex] and 0.71 respectively.

In a 45-45-90 triangle, which is a special right triangle, the sides are in the ratio [tex]\( 1:1:\sqrt{2} \).[/tex] This means if the legs (both shorter sides) are [tex]\( a \)[/tex], then the hypotenuse is [tex]\( \sqrt{2} \cdot a \).[/tex]

To find the cosine of [tex]\( 45^\circ \):[/tex]

The cosine of an angle in a right triangle is given by the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse. In a 45-45-90 triangle, each leg is adjacent to the 45° angle, and the hypotenuse is opposite the 90° angle.

Therefore, [tex]\( \cos(45^\circ) = \frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}} = \frac{a}{\sqrt{2} \cdot a} \).[/tex]

Simplifying this gives:

[tex]\[ \cos(45^\circ) = \frac{a}{a\sqrt{2}} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \][/tex]

Rationalizing the denominator:

[tex]\[ \cos(45^\circ) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}} \cdot \frac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}} = \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \][/tex]

Therefore, the cosine of [tex]\( 45^\circ \)[/tex] as a fraction is [tex]\( \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \).[/tex]

To find the decimal value of [tex]\( \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \):[/tex]

First, approximate [tex]\( \sqrt{2} \):[/tex]

[tex]\[ \sqrt{2} \approx 1.414 \][/tex]

Now, calculate [tex]\( \frac{1.414}{2} \):[/tex]

[tex]\[ \frac{1.414}{2} \approx 0.707 \][/tex]

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the decimal form of [tex]\( \cos(45^\circ) \)[/tex] is 0.71.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

uppose a small cannonball weighing 16 pounds is shot vertically upward, with an initial velocity v0 = 290 ft/s. The answer to the question "How high does the cannonball go?" depends on whether we take air resistance into account. If air resistance is ignored and the positive direction is upward, then a model for the state of the cannonball is given by d2s/dt2 = −g (equation (12) of Section 1.3). Since ds/dt = v(t) the last differential equation is the same as dv/dt = −g, where we take g = 32 ft/s2. If air resistance is incorporated into the model, it stands to reason that the maximum height attained by the cannonball must be less than if air resistance is ignored. (a) Assume air resistance is proportional to instantaneous velocity. If the positive direction is upward, a model for the state of the cannonball is given by m dv dt = −mg − kv, where m is the mass of the cannonball and k > 0 is a constant of proportionality. Suppose k = 0.0025 and find the velocity v(t) of the cannonball at time t.

Answers

Final answer:

Solving for the velocity v(t) of a cannonball considering air resistance involves integrating the differential equation m dv/dt = -mg - kv, where k is a constant of proportionality. Given initial conditions, this allows one to calculate the cannonball's velocity at any time.

Explanation:

A student has asked how to find the velocity v(t) of a cannonball, considering air resistance, modeled by m dv/dt = -mg - kv, where m is the mass of the cannonball, g is the acceleration due to gravity (32 ft/s2), and k is a constant of proportionality (0.0025). Given the initial velocity v0 = 290 ft/s, the solution involves solving this differential equation with the given initial condition.

However, solving this specific differential equation requires integration techniques that account for the linear dependence of the air resistance on the velocity, which will yield an expression for v(t) as a function of time t. This formula can then be used to calculate the velocity of the cannonball at any given time, illustrating how air resistance affects its ascent and eventual descent.

The functions (x^-1/2) and (x^-1) satisfy the differential equation and are linearly independent since W(x^-1/2, x^-1)= ____?____ for 0

Answer:

The functions x^(-1/2) and x^(-1) are linearly independent since their wronskian is (-1/2)x^(-5/2) ≠ 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the functions x^(-1/2) and x^(-1) satisfy the differential equation 2x²y'' + 5xy' + y = x² - x;

and are linearly independent, then their wronskian is not zero.

Wronskian of y1 and y2 is given as

W(y1, y2) = y1y2' - y1'y2

Let y1 = x^(-1/2)

y1' = (-1/2)x^(-3/2)

Let y2 = x^(-1)

y2' = -x^(-2)

W(y1, y2) =

x^(-1/2)(-x^(-2)) - (-1/2)x^(-3/2)x^(-1)

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

= (-1/2)x^(-5/2)

So, W(y1, y2) = (-1/2)x^(-5/2) ≠ 0

Which means the functions are linearly independent.

The functions [tex]\rm (x^\frac{-1}{2})[/tex] and [tex]\rm (x^{-1})[/tex] satisfy the differential equation and are linearly independent since [tex]W(x^{-1/2}, x^{-1})[/tex] = [tex](-x^{5/2} )+ \dfrac{1}{2}.(x^{5/2})[/tex] .

Given that,

The given two-parameter family of functions is the general solution of the non-homogeneous differential equation on the indicated interval.

[tex]\rm 2x^2y^n+5xy'+y = x^2-x[/tex]

[tex]\rm y = c_1x^{\frac{-1}{2} }+c_2{-x} \dfrac{1}{15}x^2=\dfrac{1}{5}x ,[/tex]

We have to determine,

The functions [tex]\rm (x^\frac{-1}{2})[/tex] and [tex]\rm (x^{-1})[/tex] satisfy the differential equation and are linearly independent since [tex]W(x^{-1/2}, x^{-1})[/tex] for 0?

According to the question,

The functions [tex]\rm (x^\frac{-1}{2})[/tex] and  [tex]\rm (x^{-1})[/tex] satisfy the differential equation,

[tex]\rm 2x^2y^n+5xy'+y = x^2-x[/tex]

And are linearly independent, then their differentiation is not zero.

The differential equation is given by,

[tex]\rm Y(y_1, y_2) = y_1.y_2'- y_2.y_1'[/tex]

The value  [tex]\rm y_1'[/tex] is,

[tex]\rm y_1 = x^{(-1/2})\\\\ y_1' = \dfrac{-1}{2} x^{(-3/2)}[/tex]

And value of [tex]\rm y_2'[/tex]

[tex]\rm y_2 = x^{(-1)}\\\\y_2' = -x^{(-2)}[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]\rm Y(y_1, y_2) = (x^{-1/2}.(-x)^{-2}-(-\dfrac{1}{2}.x^{-3/2}).(x^{-1})\\\\\rm Y(y_1, y_2) = (-x^{5/2} )+ \dfrac{1}{2}.(x^{5/2})\neq 0\\\\[/tex]

Objects of type A are indistinguishable from each other; objects of type B are indistinguishable from each other; and objects of type C are indistinguishable from each other. In how many ways can you Pick 5 of the 18 objects (order does not matter)

Answers

Answer:

[tex] \binom{18}{5}= 8568[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that we have in total 18 items. Even though we are given information regarding the amounts of items per type, the general question asks the total number of ways in which you can pick 5 out of the 18 objects, without any restriction on the type of chosen items. Therefore, the information regarding the type is unnecessary to solve the problem.

Recall that given n elements, the different ways of choosing k elements out of n is given by the binomial coefficient [tex]\binom{n}{k})[/tex].

Therefore, in this case the total number of ways is just [tex]\binom{18}{5}=8568[/tex]

Answer:

Given:

Number of objects: n = 18

Type A objects: 10

Type B objects: 5

Type C objects: 3

To find:

In how many ways can you Pick 5 of the 18 objects (order does not matter)

Step-by-step explanation:

When the order does not matter we use Combination.

Formula to calculate combination:

C(n,r) = n! / r! ( n - r )!

n = 18

r = 5

Putting the values:

C(n,r)

= C(18,5)

= 18! / 5! ( 18 - 5 )!

= 18! / 5! ( 13 )!

= ( 18 * 17 * 16 * 15 * 14 * 13 * 12 * 11 * 10 * 9 * 8 * 7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 ) / ( 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 ) * (13 * 12 * 11 * 10 *9* 8 * 7 *6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 *1 )

Cancel 13!

= (18 * 17 * 16 * 15 * 14 ) / ( 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 )

= 1028160 / 120

= 8568

So you can pick 5 of the 18 objects in 8568 ways.

A survey was conducted to find out how much time people have to spend commuting to work. The sample means for two samples are 71 and 72 minutes, with p-values of 0.03 and 0.06, respectively. The population mean is μμ. Choose the possible pair of the null and alternative hypotheses.A : H0:μ=80H0:μ=80, Ha:μ<80Ha:μ<80B : H0:μ=60H0:μ=60, Ha:μ>60Ha:μ>60C : H0:μ=71H0:μ=71, Ha:μ>71Ha:μ>71D : H0:μ=72H0:μ=72, Ha:μ<72Ha:μ<72E : None of the above

Answers

Answer:

E: None of the above

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The objective is to find out how much time it takes people to commute to work.

Two samples where taken and two hypothesis tests where made:

One:

Sample mean 71 min; p-value: 0.03

Two:

Sample mean 72 min; p-value: 0.06

You have to choose from the options, a possible pair of hypotheses used for these two tests.

The parameter of the study is the population mean μ.

In the statistic hypotheses, the parameters are given either a known population value or a suspected value. So all options including sample values are wrong.

As said before the objective of the survey is to "determine how much time people spend commuting to work" in other words, whether or not the population mean is equal to a certain value.

H₀: μ = μ₀

H₁: μ = μ₀

Where μ₀ represents the theoretical value of the population mean. As you can say the hypotheses pair is two-tailed, not one-tailed.

Then the correct answer is E: None of the above
