Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
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".
The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".
Solution to the problem
Part a
For this case we want to find this probability:
[tex] P(-1<Z<1)[/tex]
And we can find this probability with this difference:
[tex] P(-1<Z<1)= P(Z<1) -P(Z<-1)[/tex]
And if we find the probability using the normal standard distribution or excel we got:
[tex] P(-1<Z<1)= P(Z<1) -P(Z<-1)= 0.841-0.159= 0.682[/tex]
Part b
For this case we want to find this probability:
[tex] P(-2<Z<2)[/tex]
And we can find this probability with this difference:
[tex] P(-2<Z<2)= P(Z<2) -P(Z<-2)[/tex]
And if we find the probability using the normal standard distribution or excel we got:
[tex] P(-2<Z<2)= P(Z<2) -P(Z<-2)= 0.977-0.0228= 0.954[/tex]
Part c
For this case we want to find this probability:
[tex] P(-3<Z<3)[/tex]
And we can find this probability with this difference:
[tex] P(-3<Z<3)= P(Z<3) -P(Z<-3)[/tex]
And if we find the probability using the normal standard distribution or excel we got:
[tex] P(-3<Z<3)= P(Z<3) -P(Z<-3)= 0.999-0.0013= 0.998[/tex]
Final answer:
The question asks to find the area under the standard normal curve for specific z-score ranges. Using the empirical rule, we conclude that respective areas for those ranges are approximately 68%, 95%, and 99.7%. The exact areas can be found using a Z-table.
Explanation:
The question involves finding the area under the standard normal curve between specified z-scores. This is a fundamental concept in statistics, often used to find probabilities related to normally distributed data.
For a z-score between -1 and 1, approximately 68% of the area under the standard normal curve is contained since the empirical rule states that about 68 percent of values lie within one standard deviation of the mean in a normal distribution.For a z-score between -2 and 2, approximately 95% of the area under the curve is contained, as about 95% of the values lie within two standard deviations of the mean.For a z-score between -3 and 3, about 99.7% of the area is contained, reflecting the fact that about 99.7% of values in a normal distribution lie within three standard deviations of the mean.To find the exact areas based on the z-scores, we can refer to the Z-table of Standard Normal Distribution. This table lists the cumulative probabilities from the mean up to a certain z-score. By looking up the area to the left of each positive z-score and doubling it, we can get the approximate area between the negative and positive z-scores mentioned above.

Suppose Frances is a researcher at Beaded Gemsz, a company that makes beaded jewelry. She wants to evaluate whether using better equipment during the current year has increased jewelry-making productivity. The company's reporting team estimated an average daily production yield of 105 units per store from previous years. Frances conducts a one-sample z - test with a significance level of 0.08 , acquiring daily unit yield data from each of the stores' databases for 45 randomly selected days of the year. She obtains a P -value of 0.06 . The power of the test to detect a production increase of 12 units or more is 0.85 . What is the probability that Frances concludes that the new equipment increases the average daily jewelry production when in fact the new equipment has no effect
Answers
Answer:
There is 8% (P=0.08) that Frances concludes that the new equipment increases the average daily jewelry production when in fact the new equipment has no effect.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have one-sample z-test with a significance level of 0.08 and a power ot the test of 0.85.
In this test, the null hypothesis will state that the new equipment has the same productivity of the older equipment. The alternative hypothesis is that there is a significative improvement from the use of new equipment.
The probability that Frances concludes that the new equipment increases the average daily jewelry production when in fact the new equipment has no effect is equal to the probability of making a Type I error (rejecting a true null hypothesis).
The probability of making a Type I error is defined by the level of significance, and in this test this value is α=0.08.
Then, there is 8% that Frances concludes that the new equipment increases the average daily jewelry production when in fact the new equipment has no effect.

Which best explains why the expression plus or minus StartRoot b squared minus 4 a c EndRoot cannot be rewritten as b plus or minus StartRoot negative 4 a c EndRoot during the next step?
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let the quadratic eq. be ax²+bx+c=0
or x²+b/a x+c/a=0
or x²+b/ax=-c/a
to complete the square add both sides (b/2a)²or b²/4a²
x²+b/a x+(b/2a)²=b²/4a² -c/a
(x+b/2a)²=(b²-4ac)/(4a²)
taking square root
[tex]x+\frac{b}{2a} =\pm \frac{\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} \\or\\x=-\frac{b}{2a} \pm\frac{\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a} \\or\\x=\frac{-b \pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}[/tex]
now you must know why -b and not +b
Final answer:
The expression ± √(b² - 4ac) in the quadratic formula refers to the discriminant and cannot be rewritten as b ± √(-4ac) because it would incorrectly separate b from the discriminant and alter the expression's meaning, leading to incorrect solutions.
Explanation:
The student is asking about the quadratic formula, which is used to find the solutions to a quadratic equation of the form at² + bt + c = 0. The formula for the solutions is given by:
-b ± √(b² - 4ac) / 2a
The term ± √(b² - 4ac) cannot be rewritten as b ± √(-4ac) because it alters the original expression's meaning. The square root is taken of the entire expression b² - 4ac, which represents the discriminant of the quadratic equation. It provides information on the nature and number of roots of the equation. Separating b from the discriminant before taking the square root would calculate a different value and therefore lead to incorrect solutions.
Example:
When you substitute the given values, say a = 1, b = 0.0211, and c = -0.0211, into the quadratic formula, you will get:
-0.0211 ± √((0.0211)² - 4(1)(-0.0211)) / (2(1))
Changing the formula to b ± √(-4ac) incorrectly suggests that you can separate b from the discriminant and take the square root of -4ac alone, which would not yield a correct solution.

Add a cell phone assembly plant, 80% of the cell phone keypad pass inspection. A random sample of 181 keypads is analyzed. Find the probability that less than 76 in the sample keypads pass inspection.
Answers
Answer:
0% probability that less than 76 in the sample keypads pass inspection.
Step-by-step explanation:
I am going to use the normal approximation to the binomial to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.
Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]
The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]
Normal probability distribution
Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.
When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that [tex]\mu = E(X)[/tex], [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}[/tex].
In this problem, we have that:
[tex]n = 181, p = 0.8[/tex]
So
[tex]\mu = E(X) = np = 181*0.8 = 144.8[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{181*0.8*0.2} = 5.38[/tex]
Find the probability that less than 76 in the sample keypads pass inspection.
Using continuity correction, this is [tex]P(X < 76 - 0.5) = P(X < 75.5)[/tex], which is the pvalue of Z when X = 75.5.
So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{75.5 - 144.8}{5.38}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -12.88[/tex]
[tex]Z = -12.88[/tex] has a pvalue of 0
0% probability that less than 76 in the sample keypads pass inspection.
The wait times in line at a grocery store are roughly distributed normally with an average wait time of 7.6 minutes and a standard deviation of 1 minute 45 seconds. What is the probability that the wait time is less than 7.9 minutes
Answers
Answer:
[tex]0.56749[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that the wait times in line at a grocery store are roughly distributed normally with an average wait time of 7.6 minutes and a standard deviation of 1 minute 45 seconds. We are asked to find the probability that the wait time is less than 7.9 minutes.
First of all, we will convert 45 seconds into minutes by dividing by 60 as:
[tex]45\text{ Seconds}=\frac{45}{60}\text{ minutes}=0.75\text{ minutes}[/tex]
So 1 minute 45 seconds will be equal to 1.75 minutes.
Now, we will find z-score corresponding to 7.9 minutes using z-score formula.
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
z = z-score,
x = Random sample score,
[tex]\mu[/tex] = Mean,
[tex]\sigma[/tex] = Standard deviation.
[tex]z=\frac{7.9-7.6}{1.75}[/tex]
[tex]z=\frac{0.3}{1.75}[/tex]
[tex]z=0.17142\approx 0.17[/tex]
Now we will use normal distribution to find area under normal curve that corresponds to a z-score of 0.17 that is [tex]P(z<0.17)[/tex].
[tex]P(z<0.17)=0.56749[/tex]
Therefore, the probability that wait time is less than 7.9 minutes would be 0.56749.

What is cube ?Cube is a [tex]3D[/tex] solid object bounded by six square faces, facets or sides, with three meeting at each vertex.
Here we have,
Length [tex]=4\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Breadth [tex]=4[/tex]
Height [tex]=2[/tex]
Here, we have the side of cube [tex]=\frac{1}{3}[/tex],
So, Total volume of the prism [tex]=l*b*h[/tex]
[tex]=2*4*4\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{112}{3}[/tex]
Volume of a cube [tex]= a^{3}[/tex]
[tex]=(\frac{1}{3} )^{3}=\frac{1}{27}[/tex]
Total number of cubes [tex]= \frac{\frac{112}{3}}{\frac{1}{27} } =1008[/tex]
Volume of given cubes in prism [tex]= 32*\frac{1}{27} =\frac{32}{27}[/tex]
So, the gap left in the prism [tex]=\frac{112}{3} -\frac{32}{27} =\frac{976}{27}[/tex]
So, the number of cubes required [tex]=\frac{\frac{976}{27} }{\frac{1}{27} }=976[/tex]
Hence, we can say that the one-third cubes which are needed to fill the gap in the prism shown below are [tex]976[/tex].

Answers
Given:
The radius of the circle is 12 units.
The central angle of the shaded region is 90°
We need to determine the arc length of the shaded region.
Arc length:
The arc length of the shaded region can be determined using the formula,
[tex]Arc \ length=(\frac{\theta}{360} ) 2 \pi r[/tex]
substituting [tex]\theta=90[/tex] and r = 12, we get;
[tex]Arc \ length=(\frac{90}{360} ) 2 (3.14)(12)[/tex]
Multiplying the terms, we have;
[tex]Arc \ length=\frac{6782.4}{360}[/tex]
Dividing, we get;
[tex]Arc \ length=18.84[/tex]
Rounding off to the nearest tenth, we get;
[tex]Arc \ length =18.8[/tex]
Thus, the arc length of the shaded region is 18.8 units.

r = 4[tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{3}[/tex]
h = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{8}{3} }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the right triangle whose hypotenuse is [tex]\sqrt{8}[/tex]
Let r is the radius of the cone Let h is the height of the coneWe know that:
[tex]r^{2} + h^{2} = 8[/tex]
<=> [tex]r^{2} = 8 - h^{2}[/tex]
The volume of the cone is:
V = π[tex]r^{2} \frac{1}{3} h[/tex]
<=> V = π[tex]\frac{1}{3}(8 - h^{2} )h[/tex]
Differentiate w.r.t h
[tex]\frac{dV}{dh}[/tex] = π [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] (8 - [tex]3h^{2}[/tex])
For maximum/minimum: [tex]\frac{dV}{dh}[/tex] = 0
<=> π [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] (8 - [tex]3h^{2}[/tex]) = 0
<=> [tex]h^{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{3}[/tex]
<=> h = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{8}{3} }[/tex]
=> [tex]r^{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{16}{3}[/tex]
<=> r = 4[tex]\frac{\sqrt{3} }{3}[/tex]
So the volume of the cone is:
V = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]π(8 - [tex]\frac{8}{3}[/tex])[tex]\sqrt{\frac{8}{3} }[/tex] = 9.11 [tex]m^{3}[/tex]

Birdseed costs $0.52 a pound and sunflower seeds cost $0.82 a pound. Angela Leinenbachs' pet store wishes to make a 40-pound mixture of birdseed and sunflower seeds that sells for $0.72 per a pound. How many pounds of each type of seed should she use?
Answers
Answer: she should use 13 pounds of birdseed and 27 pounds of sunflower seeds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of pounds of birdseed that she should use.
Let y represent the number of pounds of sunflower seeds that she should use.
Angela Leinenbachs' pet store wishes to make a 40-pound mixture of birdseed and sunflower seeds. It means that
x + y = 40
Birdseed costs $0.52 a pound and sunflower seeds cost $0.82 a pound. If the mixture would sell for $0.72 per a pound, then the total cost of the mixture would be 0.72 × 40 = $28.8
The equation would be
0.52x + 0.82y = 28.8- - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 40 - y into equation 1, it becomes
0.52(40 - y) + 0.82y = 28.8
20.8 - 0.52y + 0.82y = 28.8
- 0.52y + 0.82y = 28.8 - 20.8
0.3y = 8
y = 8/0.3 = 27
x + y = 40
x + 27 = 40
x = 40 - 27
x = 13

What is the volume of the square pyramid with base edges 32 mm and slant height 34 mm?
9,920 mm3
10,010 mm3
7,680 mm3
10,240 mm3
Answers
Answer:
V = 10,240mm^3
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of pyramid is given by the following formula:
[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}bh[/tex] (1)
b: base of the pyramid = (32mm)^2
h: height
Thus, it is necessary to find the value of h, by using the Pitagoras's theorem, one half of the base and the slant height (which forms a rectangle triangle with h):
[tex]h=\sqrt{(34)^2-(16)^2}=30mm[/tex]
by replacing in (1) you obtain:
[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}(32mm)^2(30mm)=10,240\ mm^3[/tex]
hence, the volume is 10240mm^3
