What assumptions are made? Show mathematical evidence to support assumption.

Answer:

a) 6.3 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Population mean (μ) = 7.2 minutes  

Standard deviation (σ) = 0.56 minutes

The z-score for any running time 'X' is given by:

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

In this scenario, the company is looking for the top 5% runners, that is, runners at and below the 5-th percentile of the normal distribution. The equivalent z-score for the 5-th percentile is 1.645.

Therefore, the minimum speed, X, a runner needs to achieve in order to be sponsored is:

[tex]-1.645=\frac{X-7.2}{0.56}\\X= 6.3\ minutes[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]1.75*10^{-27}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If, collectively, 15 people weigh more than 3500 pounds, that means each person must weigh more than 3500/15 = 233.33 pounds.

If the distribution for population weights is normal at mean = 180 and standard deviation = 25 lbs, that means the probability for 1 person to weigh higher than 233 lbs is

[tex]1 - P(x > 233, \mu = 180, \sigma = 25) = 1 - 0.984 = 0.016[/tex]

For all 15 people to have higher weigh than that then the probability is

[tex]0.016^{15} = 1.75*10^{-27}[/tex]

This is indeed very unlikely to happen

Final answer:

It would be highly unusual for 15 people in an elevator to have a combined weight of more than 3,500 lbs; the z-score of 8.27 reflects an extremely small probability, pointing to a rare event.

Explanation:

To determine how unusual it would be for 15 people in an elevator to have a combined weight of more than 3,500 lbs, we use the Central Limit Theorem. Given that each person's weight is a random variable X that is normally distributed with a mean (μ) of 180 lbs and a standard deviation (σ) of 25 lbs, the sum of the weights of 15 people will also be normally distributed with a mean (μtotal) of 15 * 180 lbs and a standard deviation (σtotal) of √15 * 25 lbs, due to the Central Limit Theorem.

The next step is to calculate these values:

Now we calculate the z-score to determine how many standard deviations away 3,500 lbs is from the mean:

Z = (X - μtotal) / σtotal

Z = (3500 - 2700) / 96.82 ≈ 8.27

Using standard normal distribution tables or a calculator, we find that the probability of a z-score of 8.27 is extremely small, indicating that it would be highly unusual for 15 people to weigh more than 3,500 lbs in total.

Answer:

a)  [tex]\bar X=9.07[/tex]

b) The 95% confidence interval is given by (8.197;9.943)  

c) [tex]m=2.14 \frac{1.580}{\sqrt{15}}=0.873[/tex]

d)  3 possible ways

1) Increasing the sample size n.  

2) Reducing the variability. If we have more data probably we will have less variation.

3) Lower the confidence level. Because if we have lower confidence then the quantile from the t distribution would belower and tthe margin of error too.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notation and definitions  

n=15 represent the sample size  

[tex]\bar X= 9.07[/tex] represent the sample mean  

[tex]s=1.580[/tex] represent the sample standard deviation  

m represent the margin of error  

Confidence =95% or 0.95

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".  

Part a: Find the point estimate of the population mean.

The point of estimate for the population mean [tex]\mu[/tex] is given by:

[tex]\bar X =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n} x_i}{n}[/tex]

The mean obteained after add all the data and divide by 15 is [tex]\bar X=9.07[/tex]

Calculate the critical value tc  

In order to find the critical value is important to mention that we don't know about the population standard deviation, so on this case we need to use the t distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by [tex]\alpha=1-0.95=0.05[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2 =0.025[/tex]. The degrees of freedom are given by:  

[tex]df=n-1=15-1=14[/tex]  

We can find the critical values in excel using the following formulas:  

"=T.INV(0.025,14)" for [tex]t_{\alpha/2}=-2.14[/tex]  

"=T.INV(1-0.025,14)" for [tex]t_{1-\alpha/2}=2.14[/tex]  

The critical value [tex]tc=\pm 2.14[/tex]  

Part c: Calculate the margin of error (m)  

First we need to calculate the standard deviation given by this formula:

[tex]s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i-\bar X)}{n-1}}[/tex]

s=1.580

The margin of error for the sample mean is given by this formula:  

[tex]m=t_c \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]  

[tex]m=2.14 \frac{1.580}{\sqrt{15}}=0.873[/tex]  

Part b: Calculate the confidence interval  

The interval for the mean is given by this formula:  

[tex]\bar X \pm t_{c} \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]  

And calculating the limits we got:  

[tex]9.07 - 2.14 \frac{1.580}{\sqrt{15}}=8.197[/tex]  

[tex]9.07 + 2.14 \frac{1.580}{\sqrt{15}}=9.943[/tex]  

The 95% confidence interval is given by (8.197;9.943)  

Part d: How can we reduce the margin of error?

We can reduce the margin of error on the following ways:

1) Increasing the sample size n.  

2) Reducing the variability. If we have more data probably we will have less variation.

3) Lower the confidence level. Because if we have lower confidence then the quantile from the t distribution would belower and tthe margin of error too.

The publisher's point estimate for average reading time is 9.2 minutes. The 95% confidence interval for this estimate is between 8.18 and 10.22 minutes. The margin of error is approximately 1.04 minutes, which can be reduced by increasing the sample size.

The subject matter of this question is statistics, specifically dealing with the calculation and interpretation of point estimates, confidence intervals, and margins of error. Here are the steps to solve your question:

Point estimate of the population mean: This is the estimated population mean, which you find by taking the average of your sample. If you sum up all the time spent and divide by the number of people (15), you'll get the point estimate, which ends up being 9.2 minutes.

95% confidence interval for the population mean: This is computed using the sample mean, the standard deviation of the sample, and the value from a t-distribution table for a specific confidence level (95% or 0.05 significance level in this case). The calculations, based on the standard deviation, result in a 95% confidence interval of about 8.18 to 10.22.

Margin of error: The margin of error can be calculated as the difference between the sample mean and the extreme end of the confidence interval, which is about 1.04 in this case.

Reducing the margin of error: This can be achieved by increasing the sample size, which will decrease the standard error.

Answer:

22.23

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that in a binomial experiment study, in a certain community showed that 5% of the people suffer from insomnia

i.e p = 0.05

q=0.95

n=10400

[tex]np=10400*0.05=202\\npq =494[/tex]

Var(x)=[tex]npq=494\\std dev=\sqrt{494} \\=22.23[/tex]

the standard deviation of the number of people who suffer from insomnia

=22.23

The question is about calculating the standard deviation for the number of people suffering from insomnia in a particular community. The standard deviation can be calculated using the formula for the binomial distribution σ = sqrt(n*p*q).

The question asks for determination of the standard deviation of the number of people suffering from insomnia in a community of 10,400 where 5% suffer from insomnia. This context implies a binomial distribution as there are two outcomes (those who suffer from insomnia and those who do not) and a fixed number of trials (10,400 people).

For a binomial distribution, the standard deviation is found through the formula : σ = sqrt(n*p*q), where n is the total number of trials, p is the probability of success, and q is the probability of failure (1-p). Here, n=10,400, p=0.05 and q=0.95.

Here the standard deviation would be calculated as σ = sqrt{10,400 * 0.05 * 0.95}.

Answer:

a) P(A graduate is offered fewer than two jobs) = 0.53.

b) P(A graduate is offered more than one job) = 0.47.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be a random variable denoting the number of jobs offers that a university graduate gets within a month of graduation.

The probability that a university graduate will be offered no jobs within a month of graduation is estimated to be 10% i.e. [tex]P(X=0)=0.10[/tex]

The probability of receiving one job offers has similarly been estimated to be 43% i.e. [tex]P(X=1)=0.43[/tex]

The probability of receiving two job offers has similarly been estimated to be 34% i.e. [tex]P(X=2)=0.34[/tex]

The probability of receiving three job offers has similarly been estimated to be 13% i.e. [tex]P(X=3)=0.13[/tex]

a) P (A graduate is offered fewer than two jobs) i.e. P(X<2)

So, [tex]P(X<2)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)[/tex]

[tex]P(X<2)=0.10+0.43[/tex]

[tex]P(X<2)=0.53[/tex]

P(A graduate is offered fewer than two jobs) = 0.53.

b) P (A graduate is offered more than one job) i.e. P(X>1)

So, [tex]P(X>1)=P(X=2)+P(X=3)[/tex]

[tex]P(X>1)=0.34+0.13[/tex]

[tex]P(X>1)=0.47[/tex]

P(A graduate is offered more than one job) = 0.47.

The probability that a graduate is offered fewer than two jobs is 53%, and the probability that a graduate is offered more than one job is 47%.

In the scenario given, you want to find two probabilities: A) the probability that a graduate is offered fewer than two jobs, and B) the probability that a graduate is offered more than one job. The total probability should add up to 100%, or a probability of 1.

For part A), 'fewer than two jobs' could mean either no job offers or one job offer. We know from the information given that the probability of no job offer is 10% (or 0.10) and the possibility of one job offer is 43% (or 0.43). So you add these two probabilities together: 0.10 + 0.43 = 0.53. Therefore, the probability that a graduate is offered fewer than two jobs is 53%.

For part B), 'more than one job' could mean either two job offers or three job offers. From the information given, we can find that the probability of receiving two job offers is 34% (or 0.34) and the probability for three job offers is 13% (or 0.13). Adding these two probabilities gives 0.34 + 0.13 = 0.47. Hence, the probability that a graduate is offered more than one job is 47%.

Answer:

1.50 marks per pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Selling price of three-wheel cars made in North Edsel = 5000 pounds

Selling price of four-wheel cars made in south Edsel = 10,000 marks

Real exchange rate between North and South Edsel

= four​ three-wheel cars for three​ four-wheel cars

i.e

⇒ 4 × 5000 pounds  = 3 × 10,000 marks

or

1 pounds = [ ( 3 × 10,000 ) ÷ ( 4 × 5,000) ]

or

1 pound = 30,000 ÷ 20,000

or

1 pound = 1.50 marks

Hence,

The nominal exchange rate = 1.50 marks per pound

Final answer:

The nominal exchange rate between North and South Edsel is 3750 pounds.

Explanation:

The real exchange rate is the ratio at which goods and services of one country can be exchanged for those of another country. In this case, the real exchange rate between North and South Edsel is four three-wheel cars for three four-wheel cars. So, for every four four-wheel cars from South Edsel, you can exchange them for three three-wheel cars from North Edsel.

Since the price of the three-wheel cars from North Edsel is 5000 pounds, and the ratio is four three-wheel cars for three four-wheel cars, the nominal exchange rate between the two countries would be:

5000 pounds * (3 four-wheel cars / 4 three-wheel cars) = 3750 pounds.

Therefore, the nominal exchange rate between the two countries is 3750 pounds.

Answer: (6.304, 6.696)  

Step-by-step explanation:

The confidence interval for population mean is given by :-

[tex]\overline{x}\pm z^*\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

, where [tex]\sigma[/tex] = Population standard deviation.

n= sample size

[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] = Sample mean

z* = Critical z-value .

Let x denotes the number of  hours slept by UCF students.

Given :  [tex]\sigma=2\ hours[/tex]

n= 400

[tex]\overline{x}= 6.5\ hours[/tex]

Two-tailed critical value for 95% confidence interval = [tex]z^*=1.96[/tex]

Then, the 95%confidence interval for the true number of hours slept by UCF students will be :-

[tex]6.5\pm(1.96)\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{400}}\\\\=6.5\pm(1.96)\dfrac{2}{20}\\\\=6.5\pm0.196=(6.5-0.196,\ 6.5+0.196)=(6.304,\ 6.696)[/tex]

Hence, the 95% confidence interval for the true number of hours slept by UCF students : (6.304, 6.696)  

Answer: Margin of error = 8.32, and Confidence interval using normal distribution is narrower than confidence interval using t-distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

n = 13

Mean repair cost = $85.00

Standard deviation = $15.30

At 95% confidence interval,

z= 1.96

Since it is normally distributed.

Margin of error is given by

[tex]z\times \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=1.96\times \dfrac{15.30}{\sqrt{13}}\\\\=8.32[/tex]

95% confidence interval would be

[tex]\bar{x}\pm z\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=85\pm 1.96\times \dfrac{15.30}{\sqrt{13}}\\\\=85\pm 8.32\\\\=(85-8.32,85+8.32)\\\\=(76.68,93.32)[/tex]

A 95​% confidence interval using the​ t-distribution was (75.8, 94.2 ).

Confidence interval using normal distribution is narrower than confidence interval using t-distribution.

Final answer:

A 95% confidence interval for the mean repair cost of microwave ovens with a known standard deviation is calculated using the z-score. The margin of error is found to be approximately $8.31, resulting in a confidence interval of ($76.69, $93.31).

Explanation:

To calculate the 95% confidence interval for the population mean when the population standard deviation is known, we can use the z-score associated with the 95% confidence level, which is 1.96. The formula for the margin of error (EBM) is EBM = z * (σ/√n), where σ is the population standard deviation, n is the sample size, and z is the z-score. Given that the sample standard deviation is $15.30, we assume it to be the population standard deviation because the question states that it is known.

With a sample mean (μ) of $85.00, a standard deviation of $15.30, and a sample size of 13, the margin of error is calculated as follows:

EBM = 1.96 * (15.30/√13) = 1.96 * 4.24 ≈ $8.31

The 95% confidence interval is therefore ($85.00 - $8.31, $85.00 + $8.31) = ($76.69, $93.31). The results using the z-distribution are similar to those obtained using the t-distribution, but usually, the t-distribution would be used when the sample size is small and the population standard deviation is unknown, which results in a wider interval due to the extra uncertainty.

Answer:

Maximum: ((1,-2,5) ; 30)

Minimum: ((-1,2,-5) ; -30)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the function f(x,y,z) = x - 2y + 5z, with the constraint g(x,y,z) = 30, with g(x,y,z) = x²+y²+z². The Lagrange multipliers Theorem states that, the points (xo,yo,zo) of the sphere where the function takes its extreme values  should satisfy this equation:

grad(f) (xo,yo,zo) = λ * grad(g) (xo,yo,zo)

for a certain real number λ. The gradient of f evaluated on a point (x,y,z) has in its coordinates the values of the partial derivates of f evaluated on (x,y,z). The partial derivates can be calculated by taking the derivate of the function by the respective variable, treating the other variables as if they were constants.

Thus, for example, fx (x,y,z) = d/dx x-2y+5z = 1, because we treat -2y and 5z as constant expressions, and the partial derivate on those terms is therefore 0. We calculate the partial derivates of both f and g

Thus, for a critical point (x,y,z) we have this restrictions:

The last equation is just the constraint given by g, that (x,y,z) should verify.

We can put every variable in function of λ, and we obtain the following equations.

Now, we replace those values with the constraint, obtaining

(1/2λ)² + (-1/λ)²+(5/2λ)² = 30

Developing the squares and taking 1/λ² as common factor, we obtain

(1/λ²) * (1/4 + 1 + 25/4) = (1/λ²) * 30/4 = 30

Hence, λ² = 1/4, or, equivalently,[tex]\lambda =^+_- \frac{1}{2} . [/tex]

If [tex]\lambda = \frac{1}{2} , [/tex] then 1/λ is 2, and therefore

and f(x,y,z) = f(1,-2,5) = 1 -2 * (-2) + 5*5 = 30

If [tex]\lambda = - \frac{1}{2} , [/tex] then 1/λ is -2, and we have

and f(x,y,z) = f(-1,2,-5) = -1 -2*2 + 5*(-5) = -30.

Since the extreme values can be reached only within those two points, we conclude that the maximun value of f in the sphere takes place on ((1,-2,5) ; 30), and the minimun value takes place on ((-1,2,-5) ; -30).

The maximum value is 30, and the minimum value is -30. These occur at the points (1, -2, 5) and (-1, 2, -5), respectively.

To find the maximum and minimum values of f(x, y, z) = x − 2y + 5z on the sphere x² + y² + z² = 30, we use Lagrange multipliers. The constraint is g(x, y, z) = x² + y² + z² - 30 = 0.

We introduce a Lagrange multiplier λ and set up the system of equations:

Solving the system:

Equating the λs:

Substituting y and z into the constraint:

Thus, x = ±1. For x = 1: y = -2, z = 5.

For x = -1: y = 2, z = -5.

Evaluating f at these points:

Hence, the maximum value is 30 and the minimum value is -30.

In light diffraction, fringe separation is inversely proportional to the slit width. When the slit width in an experiment is doubled, it should result in the separation between the dark fringes on the screen being halved. Therefore, if the original fringe separation was 10 mm, the new separation should be 5 mm.

The subject question pertains to the topic of light diffraction, particularly through varying slit widths. The scenario described is a single slit diffraction experiment involving an argon laser with a specific wavelength. In diffraction, the fringe separation is inversely proportional to the slit width. This is because the angle of diffraction is determined by the wavelength of light divided by the slit width, according to the formula sinθ = λ/D, where θ is the diffraction angle, λ is the wavelength, and D is the slit width.

Therefore, when the slit width is doubled, the diffraction angles for the minima (dark fringes) will be halved assuming all other conditions remain the same. Consequently, the separation between the dark fringes on the screen will also be halved. So, if the original separation was 10 mm, the new separation when the slit width is doubled should be 5 mm.

Answer:

The sampling distribution of the sample mean has approximately a normal distribution because of

c) the central limit theorem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the average exam score of students of a large class is 70 with a standard deviation of 10.

From the above students a sample of 36 students is selected, and the mean score of these students is computed.

As per central limit theorem we have when samples are drawn at random from population, with sample size sufficiently large to represent the population then sample mean follows a normal distribution.

Here population size N = 70 and sample size n =36

we can say sample size is greater than 30 and sufficiently large to represent the population. Also we can assume that these are randomly drawn.

So the answer would be

The sampling distribution of the sample mean has approximately a normal distribution because of

c) the central limit theorem.

Final answer:

To find the fraction of applicants with a score of 400 or above, convert the score to a z-score and look it up in a standard normal distribution table. Subtract the resulting proportion from 1 to find the fraction above 400. Approximately 77.34% of the applicants would have a score of 400 or above.

Explanation:

To find the fraction of applicants who would have a score of 400 or above, we need to find the area under the normal distribution curve to the right of 400. First, we need to convert the score of 400 to a z-score using the formula:

z = (x - μ) / σ

where z is the z-score, x is the score, μ is the mean, and σ is the standard deviation. In this case, the mean is 460 and the standard deviation is 80, so the z-score is:

z = (400 - 460) / 80 = -0.75

Once we have the z-score, we can look it up in a standard normal distribution table to find the proportion of the distribution that is below it. The table gives us a value of approximately 0.2266 for a z-score of -0.75. Since we want the fraction above 400, we can subtract this value from 1 to get:

1 - 0.2266 = 0.7734

Therefore, we would expect approximately 77.34% of the applicants to have a score of 400 or above.

Answer:

the concentration at 10 minutes= 0.4+0.0133= 0.4133%

Step-by-step explanation:

Air containing 0.04% carbon dioxide

V, volume of room is 6000 ft3.

Q, rate of air 2000 ft3/min,

initial concentration of 0.4% carbon dioxide,

determine the subsequent amount in the room at any time.

What is the concentration at 10 minutes?

firstly, we find the time taken for air to completely filled the room

Q = V/t

t = V/Q = 6000/2000 = 3min

so, its take 3mins for air to be completely filled in the room and for exhaust air to move out.

there is  an initial concentration of 0.4% carbon dioxide, and the air pump in is 0.04%.

therefore,

3mins = 0.04% of CO2

3*60 =180sec = 0.04%

1sec = 0.04/180 = 0.00022%/sec

so at any time the concentration of CO2 is 0.4 + 0.00022 =0.40022%/sec

What is the concentration at 10 minute

the concentration at 10minutes = the concentration for 1minute because at every minutes, the concentration moves in is moves out. = concentration for 2000ft3.

for 0.04% = 6000ft3

   ?          = 2000ft3

              = 2000* 0.04)/6000 =0.0133%

the concentration at 10 minutes= 0.4+0.0133= 0.4133%

Final answer:

To reject the null hypothesis (H0) if the calculated t-value is less than -1.9842.

Explanation:

To establish the appropriate rejection region for a significance level of 0.05, one compares the test statistic (denoted as 't') with a critical value. In this case, the correct rejection region dictates that the null hypothesis (H0) should be rejected if the calculated 't' is less than -1.9842.

Simply put, if the derived 't'-value falls below -1.9842, it implies rejecting the null hypothesis. This decision leads to the conclusion that there is enough evidence to support the alternative hypothesis (Ha: μ < 60). This meticulous comparison adheres to statistical principles, ensuring a reliable interpretation of the test outcomes and providing a solid foundation for decision-making in hypothesis testing.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4) The shape in the figure is a parallelogram. In the parallelogram, the diagonals are equal and bisect each other at the midpoint, E. This means that AC is divided equally into AE and EC. Therefore

AC = 2EC

AC = 8x - 14 and EC = 2x + 11. So,

8x - 14 = 2(2x + 11)

8x - 14 = 4x + 22

8x - 4x = 22 + 14

4x = 36

x = 36/4

x = 9

6)The shape in the figure is a parallelogram. The opposite angles are equal. This means that

Angle BCD = angle BED

So angle BED = 51 degrees.

Since the sum of angles in a triangle is 180 degrees, then, angle BED + angle BDE + angle DBE = 180 degrees. It means

51 + 55 + 14x + 4 = 180

14x + 110 = 180

14x = 180 - 110 = 70

x = 70/14

x = 5

7) The shape in the figure is a parallelogram. The opposite angles are equal. Therefore,

angle VST = angle VUT

5x + 23 = 8x - 49

5x - 8x = -49 - 23

-3x = -72

x = -72 / -3

x = 24

angle VST = 5×24 + 23 = 143

angle VUT = 143

angle VST + angle VUT = 143 + 1143 = 286

Recall, the sum of angles in a parallelogram is 360 degrees. Therefore,

angle SVU + angle STU = 360 - 286 = 74 degrees

Angle SVU = 74/2 = 37 degrees.

Angle SVT + angle UVT = 37

angle SVT + 20 = 37

Answer:

We have the matrix [tex]A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-4&-4&-4\\0&-8&-4\\0&8&4\end{array}\right][/tex]

To find the eigenvalues of A we need find the zeros of the polynomial characteristic [tex]p(\lambda)=det(A-\lambda I_3)[/tex]

Then

[tex]p(\lambda)=det(\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-4-\lambda&-4&-4\\0&-8-\lambda&-4\\0&8&4-\lambda\end{array}\right] )\\=(-4-\lambda)det(\left[\begin{array}{cc}-8-\lambda&-4\\8&4-\lambda\end{array}\right] )\\=(-4-\lambda)((-8-\lambda)(4-\lambda)+32)\\=-\lambda^3-8\lambda^2-16\lambda[/tex]

Now, we fin the zeros of [tex]p(\lambda)[/tex].

[tex]p(\lambda)=-\lambda^3-8\lambda^2-16\lambda=0\\\lambda(-\lambda^2-8\lambda-16)=0\\\lambda_{1}=0\; o \; \lambda_{2,3}=\frac{8\pm\sqrt{8^2-4(-1)(-16)}}{-2}=\frac{8}{-2}=-4[/tex]

Then, the eigenvalues of A are [tex]\lambda_{1}=0[/tex] of multiplicity 1 and [tex]\lambda{2}=-4[/tex] of multiplicity 2.

Let's find the eigenspaces of A. For [tex]\lambda_{1}=0[/tex]: [tex]E_0 = Null(A- 0I_3)=Null(A)[/tex].Then, we use row operations to find the echelon form of the matrix

[tex]A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-4&-4&-4\\0&-8&-4\\0&8&4\end{array}\right]\rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{ccc}-4&-4&-4\\0&-8&-4\\0&0&0\end{array}\right][/tex]

We use backward substitution and we obtain

1.

[tex]-8y-4z=0\\y=\frac{-1}{2}z[/tex]

2.

[tex]-4x-4y-4z=0\\-4x-4(\frac{-1}{2}z)-4z=0\\x=\frac{-1}{2}z[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]E_0=\{(x,y,z): (x,y,z)=(-\frac{1}{2}t,-\frac{1}{2}t,t)\}=gen((-\frac{1}{2},-\frac{1}{2},1))[/tex]

For [tex]\lambda_{2}=-4[/tex]: [tex]E_{-4} = Null(A- (-4)I_3)=Null(A+4I_3)[/tex].Then, we use row operations to find the echelon form of the matrix

[tex]A+4I_3=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&-4&-4\\0&-4&-4\\0&8&8\end{array}\right] \rightarrow\left[\begin{array}{ccc}0&-4&-4\\0&0&0\\0&0&0\end{array}\right][/tex]

We use backward substitution and we obtain

1.

[tex]-4y-4z=0\\y=-z[/tex]

Then,

[tex]E_{-4}=\{(x,y,z): (x,y,z)=(x,z,z)\}=gen((1,0,0),(0,1,1))[/tex]

Then the change of basis matrix from B to C is

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&4&-2\\2&3&-4\\1&2&-2\end{array}\right][/tex]

To find the change of basis matrix from basis B to basis C in R3, invert basis B, multiply it by basis C, and the resulting matrix transforms coordinates from B to C: [[1 2 -2], [2 3 -4], [4 4 -7]].

Here's how to go about finding the change of basis matrix from basis B to basis C in R3:

1. Write down the vector coordinates of interest. These coordinates are given by basis B and basis C:
   basis B : {⟨2,−1,1⟩,⟨−2,2,−1⟩,⟨1,−1,0⟩}
   basis C : {⟨2,−1,−1⟩,⟨2,0,−1⟩,⟨−3,1,2⟩}

2. Find the inverse of basis B. The inverse of a matrix is such that if you multiply the original matrix by its inverse you get the identity matrix — a simple "1, 0" matrix. This step effectively reverses the transformation provided by basis B.

3. Then, calculate the product of basis B's inverse and basis C. This essentially re-projects the coordinates of basis B onto basis C.

4. The resulting matrix is your Change of Basis matrix from B to C. In our calculation, this comes out as:

Change of Basis from B to C:
   [[ 1.  2. -2.]
    [ 2.  3. -4.]
    [ 4.  4. -7.]]

This matrix will transform any vector in coordinates relative to basis B into coordinates relative to basis C. The first row indicates how much of each vector in B is needed to form the first vector in C, the second row for the second vector in C, and so on.

Answer:

a) [tex]P(X=4)=(1-0.6)^{4-1} 0.6 = 0.0384[/tex]

b) [tex]P(X\leq 4)=0.6+0.24+0.096+0.0384=0.9744[/tex]

c) [tex]P(X\geq 4)=1-P(X<4)=1-P(X\leq 3)=1-[0.6+0.24+0.096]=0.064[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The geometric distribution represents "the number of failures before you get a success in a series of Bernoulli trials. This discrete probability distribution is represented by the probability density function:"

[tex]P(X=x)=(1-p)^{x-1} p[/tex]

Let X the random variable that measures the number os trials until the first success, we know that X follows this distribution:

[tex]X\sim Geo (1-p)[/tex]

Part a

For this case we want this probability

[tex]P(X=4)=(1-0.6)^{4-1} 0.6 = 0.0384[/tex]

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

[tex]P(X\leq 4)=P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)+P(X=4)[/tex]

If we find the individual probabilities we got:

[tex]P(X=1)=(1-0.6)^{1-1} 0.6 = 0.6[/tex]

[tex]P(X=2)=(1-0.6)^{2-1} 0.6 = 0.24[/tex]

[tex]P(X=3)=(1-0.6)^{3-1} 0.6 = 0.096[/tex]

[tex]P(X=4)=(1-0.6)^{4-1} 0.6 = 0.0384[/tex]

And replacing we have:

[tex]P(X\leq 4)=0.6+0.24+0.096+0.0384=0.9744[/tex]

Part c

For this case at least 4 trials means that the random variable X needs to be 4 or more

[tex]P(X\geq 4)=1-P(X<4)=1-P(X\leq 3)=1-[P(X=1)+P(X=2)+P(X=3)][/tex]

And we found already the probabilities P(X=1),P(X=2) and P(X=3) so we just need to replace:

[tex]P(X\geq 4)=1-P(X<4)=1-P(X\leq 3)=1-[0.6+0.24+0.096]=0.064[/tex]

The three scenarios are calculated using a combination of geometric and binomial probability distribution. For the first success to happen on the 4th trial is 0.0384. For a success to happen within the first four trials is 0.8847, and for the first success to need at least four trials is 0.3600.

This question has to do with the concept of probability distribution in math, and specifically with the geometric distribution and binomial probability distribution. Given the probability of a successful optical alignment p = 0.6, we're being asked about different scenarios involving success on specific trials.

(a) For the first successful alignment to happen on the 4th trial, the first 3 trials have to be failures and the 4th one, a success. The probability would be (0.4)^3 * 0.6 = 0.0384.

(b) This means we want a successful alignment on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th trials. For this we sum up the probabilities of each case: (0.6) + (0.4*0.6) + (0.4)^2*0.6 + (0.4)^3*0.6 = 0.8847.

(c) For a successful alignment to occur in at least 4 trials, we have to subtract the probability of success within the first 3 trials from 1. Therefore, 1 - ((0.6) + (0.4*0.6) + (0.4)^2*0.6) = 0.3600.

Answer:

2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

The Poisson’s distribution is a discrete probability distribution. A discrete probability distribution means that the events occur with a constant mean rate and independently of each other. It is used to signify the chance (probability) of a given number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time or space.

In the long run, fraction of time that it rains = E(Number of days in rainy spell) / {E(Number of days in a rainy spell) + E(Number of days in a dry spell)}

E(Number of days in rainy spell) = 2

E(Number of days in a dry spell) = 7

In the long run, fraction of time that it rains = 2/(2 + 7) = 2/9

Given the parameters of the rainy spell and dry spell, the long-run fraction of time that it rains can be calculated by dividing the mean of the rainy days by the sum of the average rainy and dry days. Hence, it rains roughly 22.22% of the time in the long-term.

The question is asking about the long-run fraction of time that it rains, based on a rainy spell following a Poisson distribution with a mean of 2 days, and a dry spell following a geometric distribution with an average of 7 days, with the sequences being independent.

We are being asked to calculate the proportion of time that it rains in the long-run, given these distribution parameters. The Poisson and geometric distributions are often used in this type of probability assessment.

To tackle this, we need to divide the mean of the rainy days by the sum of the average rainy and dry days. Thus, the long-run fraction of time it rains is given by [tex]2/(2+7) = 2/9.[/tex]

So, in the long run, it rains roughly 22.22% (or 2/9) of the time.

Answer:

0.6563 or 65.63% of brook trout caught will be between 12 and 18 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean trout length (μ) = 14 inches

Standard deviation (σ) = 3 inches

The z-score for any given trout length 'X' is defined as:  

[tex]z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]  e interval

For a length of X =12 inches:

[tex]z=\frac{12-14}{3}\\z=-0.6667[/tex]

According to a z-score table, a score of -0.6667 is equivalent to the 25.25th percentile of the distribution.

For a length of X =18 inches:

[tex]z=\frac{18-14}{3}\\z=1.333[/tex]

According to a z-score table, a score of 1.333 is equivalent to the 90.88th percentile of the distribution.

The proportion of trout caught between 12 and 18 inches, assuming a normal distribution, is the interval between the equivalent percentile of each length:

[tex]P(12\leq X\leq 18) = 90.88\% - 25.25\%\\P(12\leq X\leq 18) = 65.63\%[/tex]

To find the proportion of brook trout caught between 12 and 18 inches, calculate the z-scores for these values and find the area between them on a standard normal distribution curve.

To find the proportion of brook trout caught between 12 and 18 inches in length, we need to calculate the z-scores for these values and then find the area between the z-scores on a standard normal distribution curve.

First, we calculate the z-score for 12 inches: z = (12 - 14) / 3 = -2/3.

Second, we calculate the z-score for 18 inches: z = (18 - 14) / 3 = 4/3.

Using a z-table or a calculator, we can find the area to the left of -2/3 and the area to the left of 4/3. Subtracting these two areas will give us the proportion of brook trout caught between 12 and 18 inches.

Answer: Yes, this sample provide evidence that people living in rural communities live longer than 77 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Average lifespan in the USA = 77 years

We need to check whether the people living in rural communities live longer than 77 years.

So, Hypothesis would be

[tex]H_0:\mu=77\\\\H_a:\mu>77[/tex]

Since n = 12

[tex]\bar{x}=81.03\\\\s=1.53[/tex]

since n <30 so, we will use t test.

So, the test statistic value is given by

[tex]t=\dfrac{\bar{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}\\\\\\t=\dfrac{81.03-77}{\dfrac{1.53}{\sqrt{12}}}\\\\\\t=\dfrac{4.03}{0.4416}\\\\t=9.125[/tex]

degrees of freedom = df = n-1 = 12-1 =11

At 95% significance level , t = 1.796

Since, 1.796< 9.125

So, we will reject the null hypothesis.

Hence, Yes, this sample provide evidence that people living in rural communities live longer than 77 years.

The null hypothesis is that the average lifespan of rural Idaho residents is 77 years, and the alternative hypothesis is that it's greater than 77 years. The calculated t-value is approximately 9.974, which indicates that the rural Idaho sample’s lifespan is significantly longer than the national average of 77 years.

The null and alternative hypotheses are as follows:

You can calculate the t-statistic using the formula: t = (x_bar - mu) / (s / sqrt(n)), where x_bar is the sample mean, mu is the population mean, s is the sample standard deviation, and n is the sample size. Plugging in the given values, we get:

t = (81.03 - 77) / (1.53 / sqrt(12))  = 9.974, approx.

The resulting t-value indicates that the rural Idaho sample’s lifespan is significantly above the national average of 77 years. Hence, the sample provides evidence that people living in rural Idaho communities live longer than the standard American lifespan of 77 years.

Answer:

z=13.36 (Statistic)

[tex]p_v =P(Z>13.36)\approx 0[/tex]

The p value is a very low value and using any significance level for example [tex]\alpha=0.05, 0,1,0.15[/tex] always [tex]p_v<\alpha[/tex] so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the proportion of men with red/green color blindness is significant higher than the proportion of female with red/green color blindness .

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

[tex]X_{MCB}=56[/tex] represent the number of men with red/green color blindness

[tex]X_{WCB}=5[/tex] represent the number of women with red/green color blindness

[tex]n_{MCB}=600[/tex] sample of male selected

[tex]n_{WCB}=600[/tex] sample of demale selected

[tex]p_{MCB}=\frac{56}{600}=0.093[/tex] represent the proportion of men with red/green color blindness

[tex]p_{WCB}=\frac{5}{2150}=0.0023[/tex] represent the proportion of women with red/green color blindness

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

[tex]p_v[/tex] represent the value for the test (variable of interest)

2) Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the proportion for men with red/green color blindness is a higher than the rate for women  , the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis:[tex]p_{MCB} \leq p_{WCB}[/tex]

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]p_{MCB} > \mu_{WCB}[/tex]

We need to apply a z test to compare proportions, and the statistic is given by:

[tex]t=\frac{p_{MCB}-p_{WCB}}{\sqrt{\hat p (1-\hat p)(\frac{1}{n_{MCB}}+\frac{1}{n_{WCB}})}}[/tex]   (1)

Where [tex]\hat p=\frac{X_{MCB}+X_{WCB}}{n_{MCB}+n_{WCB}}=\frac{56+5}{600+2150}=0.0221[/tex]

t-test: Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine whether the means of two groups are equal to each other.

3) Calculate the statistic

Replacing in formula (1) the values obtained we got this:

[tex]z=\frac{0.093-0.0023}{\sqrt{0.0221(1-0.0221)(\frac{1}{600}+\frac{1}{2150})}}=13.36[/tex]  

4) Statistical decision

For this case we don't have a significance level provided [tex]\alpha[/tex], but we can calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a one side test the p value would be:

[tex]p_v =P(Z>13.36)\approx 0[/tex]

So the p value is a very low value and using any significance level for example [tex]\alpha=0.05, 0,1,0.15[/tex] always [tex]p_v<\alpha[/tex] so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the proportion of men with red/green color blindness is significant higher than the proportion of female with red/green color blindness .

To test the claim that men have a higher rate of red/green color blindness, we need to compare the proportions of color blindness in men and women using a chi-square test of independence.

To test the claim that men have a higher rate of red/green color blindness, we need to compare the proportions of color blindness in men and women.

Let p_m be the proportion of men with color blindness and p_w be the proportion of women with color blindness.

Null hypothesis: p_m = p_w

Alternative hypothesis: p_m > p_w

To test this hypothesis, we can use a chi-square test of independence. We will compare the observed frequencies of color blindness in men and women to the expected frequencies under the assumption that men and women have the same rate of color blindness.

The chi-square test statistic is calculated as follows:

X^2 = (O_m - E_m)^2/E_m + (O_w - E_w)^2/E_w

where O_m and O_w are the observed frequencies of color blindness in men and women, and E_m and E_w are the expected frequencies of color blindness in men and women.

If the chi-square test statistic is large enough, we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that men have a higher rate of color blindness than women.

Answer:  The length of the loner side is 7 in. and the length of the shorter side is 6 in.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a graphics designer is designing an advertising brochure for an art show. Each page of the brochure is rectangular with an area of 42 in squared and a perimeter of 26 in.

We are to find the dimensions of the brochure.

Let l and b represents the lengths of the longer side and shorter side respectively of each page of the brochure.

Then, according to the given information, we have

[tex]l\times b=42~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)[/tex]

and

[tex]2(l+b)=26\\\\\Rightarrow l+b=13\\\\\Rightarrow l=13-b~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(ii)[/tex]

Substituting the value of l from equation (ii) in equation (i), we get

[tex](13-b)b=42\\\\\Rightarrow b^2-13b+42=0\\\\\Rightarrow b^2-6b-7b+42=0\\\\\Rightarrow (b-6)(b-7)=0\\\\\Rightarrow b-6=0,~~~b-7=0\\\\\Rightarrow b=6,7.[/tex]

Since b is the length of the shorter side, so b = 6 in.

From equation (ii), we get

[tex]l=13-6=7.[/tex]

Thus, the length of the loner side is 7 in. and the length of the shorter side is 6 in.

To find the dimensions of the brochure, we use the formulas for the area and perimeter of a rectangle. Solving the system of equations produced by these formulas, we find that the length of the brochure is 7 inches and the width is 6 inches.

In order to find the dimensions of the brochure, we can use the formulas for the area and perimeter of a rectangle. Given area, A = 42 inches squared and perimeter, P = 26 inches. The formulas for the area and perimeter of the rectangle are A = length x width and P = 2(length + width).

Let's denote the length of the rectangle as 'l' and the width as 'w'. Now we know that:

l x w = 42 inches (according to area formula)

2(l + w) = 26 inches (according to perimeter formula)

This is a system of two equations which can be solved simultaneously. After solving these equations, we find that the length (longer side) is 7 inches, and the width (shorter side) is 6 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution is x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is:

[tex]3^{(x-1)} = 9^{(x+2)}[/tex]

In order to solve the eponnetial equations, we have to equate the bases of both sides so that the exponents can be put equal

So,

Replacing 9 with 3^2

[tex]3^{(x-1)} = (3^2)^{(x+2)}[/tex]

When there are exponents on exponents, both are multiplied so,

[tex]3^{(x-1)} = 3^{(2x+4)}[/tex]

As the bases on both sides are same, the exponents can be put equal

So,

[tex]x-1 = 2x+4[/tex]

Adding 1 on both sides

[tex]x-1+1 = 2x+4+1\\x = 2x+5[/tex]

Subtracting 2x from both sides

[tex]x-2x = 2x-2x+5\\-x = 5\\x = -5[/tex]

Hence,

The solution is x = -5

Answer:

b) The annual rainfall in a city

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, a discrete variable is one that can only take a finite number of values between any two values of a characteristic and a continuous variable is one that can take an infinite number of values between any two values of a characteristic.

a) Observe that the variable x='classes taken in one semester' can take the values 0,1,2,...,n.

Then the variable x is discrete

b) Observe that the variable x='annual rainfall in a city' can take the values 2in, 1.6in, 5.1 in, 0.1in

Then, the variable x can be take a infinite number of values between two number. So x isn't a discrete variable.

c) The variable x='attendance at a football game' can take the values 3000,5000... n. And never will be a decimal number because There cannot be a personal decimal number. Therefore, x is a discrete variable.

d) The variable x='patients treated at an emergency room in a day' can take the values 1,2,3,...,n. And never will be a decimal number because There cannot be a personal decimal number. Therefore, x is a discrete variable.
