Answer:
The 95% confidence interval would be given (0.761;0.839). The error bound is [tex]Me=\pm 0.0392[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Data given and notation
n=400 represent the random sample taken
X=320 represent the people drivers claimed they always buckle up
[tex]\hat p=\frac{320}{400}=0.8[/tex] estimated proportion of people drivers claimed they always buckle up
[tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] represent the significance level (no given, but is assumed)
Confidence =95% or 0.95
p= population proportion of people drivers claimed they always buckle up
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".
2) Calculating the interval for the proportion
The confidence interval would be given by this formula
[tex]\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}[/tex]
For the 95% confidence interval the value of [tex]\alpha=1-0.95=0.05[/tex] and [tex]\alpha/2=0.025[/tex], with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.
[tex]z_{\alpha/2}=1.96[/tex]
And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:
[tex]0.8 - 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.8(1-0.8)}{400}}=0.761[/tex]
[tex]0.8 + 1.96 \sqrt{\frac{0.8(1-0.8)}{400}}=0.839[/tex]
And the 95% confidence interval would be given (0.761;0.839). The error bound is [tex]Me=\pm 0.0392[/tex]
We are confident that about 76.1% to 83.9% of people drivers that they always buckle up at 95% of confidence
Find the work required to move an object in the force field F = ex+y <1,1,z> along the straight line from A(0,0,0) to B(-1,2,-5). Also, deternine if the force is conservative.
Find the work required to move an object in the fo
Answer:
Work = e+24
F is not conservative.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the work required to move an object in the force field
[tex]\large F(x,y,z)=(e^{x+y},e^{x+y},ze^{x+y})[/tex]
along the straight line from A(0,0,0) to B(-1,2,-5), we have to parameterize this segment.
Given two points P, Q in any euclidean space, you can always parameterize the segment of line that goes from P to Q with
r(t) = tQ + (1-t)P with 0 ≤ t ≤ 1
so
r(t) = t(-1,2,-5) + (1-t)(0,0,0) = (-t, 2t, -5t) with 0≤ t ≤ 1
is a parameterization of the segment.
the work W required to move an object in the force field F along the straight line from A to B is the line integral
[tex]\large W=\int_{C}Fdr [/tex]
where C is the segment that goes from A to B.
[tex]\large \int_{C}Fdr =\int_{0}^{1}F(r(t))\circ r'(t)dt=\int_{0}^{1}F(-t,2t,-5t)\circ (-1,2,-5)dt=\\\\=\int_{0}^{1}(e^t,e^t,-5te^t)\circ (-1,2,-5)dt=\int_{0}^{1}(-e^t+2e^t+25te^t)dt=\\\\\int_{0}^{1}e^tdt-25\int_{0}^{1}te^tdt=(e-1)+25\int_{0}^{1}te^tdt[/tex]
Integrating by parts the last integral:
[tex]\large \int_{0}^{1}te^tdt=e-\int_{0}^{1}e^tdt=e-(e-1)=1[/tex]
and
[tex]\large \boxed{W=\int_{C}Fdr=e+24}[/tex]
To show that F is not conservative, we could find another path D from A to B such that the work to move the particle from A to B along D is different to e+24
Now, let D be the path consisting on the segment that goes from A to (1,0,0) and then the segment from (1,0,0) to B.
The segment that goes from A to (1,0,0) can be parameterized as
r(t) = (t,0,0) with 0≤ t ≤ 1
so the work required to move the particle from A to (1,0,0) is
[tex]\large \int_{0}^{1}(e^t,e^t,0)\circ (1,0,0)dt =\int_{0}^{1}e^tdt=e-1 [/tex]
The segment that goes from (1,0,0) to B can be parameterized as
r(t) = (1-2t,2t,-5t) with 0≤ t ≤ 1
so the work required to move the particle from (1,0,0) to B is
[tex]\large \int_{0}^{1}(e,e,-5et)\circ (-2,2,-5)dt =25e\int_{0}^{1}tdt=\frac{25e}{2}[/tex]
Hence, the work required to move the particle from A to B along D is
e - 1 + (25e)/2 = (27e)/2 -1
since this result differs from e+24, the force field F is not conservative.
How much TV do college students watch? A survey of 361 students recorded the number of hours of television they watched per week. The sample mean was 6.504 hours with a standard deviation of 5.584. The standard error of the mean was 0.294. Find a 90% confidence interval for the population mean. Round your answer to three decimal places
Answer: 90% confidence interval would be (6.022,6.986).
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of students = 361
Sample mean = 6.504
Sample standard deviation = 5.584
Standard error of the mean = 0.294
At 90% confidence level,
So, α = 0.01
So, z = 1.64
Margin of error is given by
[tex]z\times \text{Standard error}\\\\=1.64\times 0.294\\\\=0.48216[/tex]
So, Lower limit would be
[tex]\bar{x}-0.482\\\\=6.504-0.482\\\\=6.022[/tex]
Upper limit would be
[tex]\bar{x}+0.482\\\\=6.504+0.482\\\\=6.986[/tex]
So, 90% confidence interval would be (6.022,6.986).
Suppose that 250 students take a test, of which 100 are sophomores, 140 are juniors and 110 are seniors. Let X be the random variable representing the score of each student on the test. Suppose that the sophomores have an average of 60 juniors have an average of 67 and the seniors have an average of 77. Find E(X) using conditioning. Use the appropriate notation to explain your answer.
Answer:
95.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The overall average score would be the total score divided by the total number of students. The total score is the sum of the product of the average of each student body and their average score
[tex]E(x) = \frac{E_1n_1 + E_2n_2+E_3n_3}{n_1+n_2+n_3}[/tex]
[tex]E(x) = \frac{100*60+140*67+110*77}{250} = \frac{23850}{250} = 95.4[/tex]
The advertised claim for batteries for cell phones is set at 48 operating hours with proper charging procedures. A study of 5000 batteries is carried out and 15 stop operating prior to 48 hours.
Do these experimental results support the claim that less than 0.2 percent of the company’s batteries will fail during the advertised time period (assuming proper charging procedures were followed)?
Use a hypothesis testing procedure with α = 0.01. State H0 and H1, test statistic, critical value(s), critical (rejection) region, p-value, and conclusion. Hint: Here, H1 is something against what the company claims.
Final answer:
The experimental results support the claim that less than 0.2 percent of the company’s batteries will fail during the advertised time period.
Explanation:
To test if the experimental results support the claim that less than 0.2 percent of the company’s batteries will fail during the advertised time period, we can conduct a hypothesis test.
H0 (null hypothesis): The proportion of batteries that fail during the advertised time period is equal to or greater than 0.2 percent.
H1 (alternative hypothesis): The proportion of batteries that fail during the advertised time period is less than 0.2 percent.
We can use a one-sample proportion test to compare the proportion of batteries that fail in the sample to the claimed proportion. The test statistic for this hypothesis test is the z-test statistic.
The critical value(s) for a one-sided test with α = 0.01 is z = -2.33.
The critical (rejection) region is z < -2.33.
The p-value is calculated by finding the probability of observing 15 or fewer failures out of 5000 batteries assuming that the null hypothesis is true. Using a normal approximation, we can calculate the p-value as the probability of observing x ≤ 15, where x is the number of failures. We find the p-value is less than 0.01.
Since the p-value is less than the significance level of 0.01, we reject the null hypothesis. We have sufficient evidence to support the claim that less than 0.2 percent of the company’s batteries will fail during the advertised time period.
: Planning a summer study schedule About Susan plans on studying four different subjects (Math, Science, French, and Social Studies) over the course of the summer. There are 100 days in her summer break and each day she will study one of the four subjects. A schedule consists of a plan for which subject she will study on each day (a) How many ways are there for her to plan her schedule if there are no restrictions on the number of days she studies each of the four subjects? (b) How many ways are there for her to plan her schedule if she decides that the number of days she studies each subject will be the same?
Answer:
Part (A): The total number of ways are [tex]4^{100}[/tex]
Part (B): The total number of ways are [tex]1.6122075076\times10^{57}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
Part(A) a) How many ways are there for her to plan her schedule if there are no restrictions on the number of days she studies each of the four subjects?
She plans on studying four different subjects.
That means she has 4 choices for each day also there is no restriction on the number of days.
Hence, the total number of ways are:
[tex]4\times 4\times4\times4\times......4=4^{100}[/tex]
Part (B) How many ways are there for her to plan her schedule if she decides that the number of days she studies each subject will be the same?
She wants that the number of day she studies each subject will be the same that means she studies for 25 days each subject.
Therefore, the number of ways are:
[tex]^{100}C_{25}\times ^{75}C_{25}\times ^{50}C_{25}\times ^{25}C_{25}=1.6122075076\times10^{57}[/tex]
In the case of no restrictions, there are 4^100 possible study schedules. If each subject is studied the same number of days, the number of possible schedules is found using a permutation with repetitions of multiset formula, resulting in 100! / (25! * 25! * 25! * 25!).
Explanation:This question focuses on combinatorics which is a branch of mathematics that deals with combinations of objects belonging to a finite set. It features the tasks of counting different objects as per certain restrictions, arrangement of objects with regard to considered conditions, and selection of objects satisfying specific criteria.
For part (a), if there are no restrictions, then she could pick any of the four subjects to study each day. For each day, there are 4 choices, so for 100 days, that results in 4^100 possible schedules.
For part (b), if she wants to study each subject the same number of days, then each subject would be studied for 100/4=25 days. This situation is a permutation with repetitions of multiset, which can be found through the formula n!/(r1! * r2! * ... * rk!) where n is total number of items, and r1, r2, ..., rk are numbers of same elements of multiset. Using this equation, the number of ways would be 100! / (25! * 25! * 25! * 25!).

Consider a triangle with vertices at (0,0) and (x1, 71) and (x2, 92). a. Use the interpretation of a determinant as area of a parallelogram to explain why the following formula calculates the area of the triangle. (Hint: A diagonal of a parallelogram cuts the parallelogram into two triangles of equal size A =\det (i 2) b. Set (x1, y.) = (1,2) and (x2,Y2) = (3,-1). Use the formula to calculate the area of the triangle.
I can't really read the formula so I'll give a lecture.
With two vectors we can make a parallelogram. If the vectors are u and v, and one vertex is the origin O, the others are O+u, O+v, and O+v+u. If we draw any diagonal of the parallelogram, that divides it into two congruent triangles. So each triangle is half the area of parallelogram.
The signed area of the parallelogram is given by the two D cross product of the vectors, aka the determinant. So the area of a triangle with vertices (0,0), (a,b) and (c,d) is
[tex]A = \frac 1 2 |ad - bc| = \left| \frac 1 2 \begin{vmatrix} a & b \\ c & d\end{vmatrix} \right|[/tex]
Applying that to vertices

In a random sample of 27 people, the mean commute time to work was 32.8 minutes and the standard deviation was 7.2 minutes. Assume the population is normally distributed and use a t-distribution to construct a 99 % confidence interval for the population mean mu . What is the margin of error of mu ? Interpret the results.
The confidence interval for the population mean ___ , ___
(Round to one decimal place as needed.)
A) Using the given sample statistics, find the left endpoint of the interval using technology, rounding to one decimal place.
B) Using the given sample statistics, find the right endpoint of the interval using technology, rounding to one deci?mal place.
C) Using the formulas and values for the left and/or rightendpoints, find the margin of error from technology, rounding to two decimal places.
Final answer:
To calculate the 99% confidence interval for the population mean commute time, we use the formula CI = x± t * (s/√n), where x is the sample mean, t is the t-value, s is the sample standard deviation, and n is the sample size. By substituting the given values into the formula, we find that the confidence interval is approximately (29.4, 36.2) and the margin of error is 1.7. This means we are 99% confident that the population mean commute time lies within the interval, and the margin of error represents the possible deviation of the sample mean from the population mean.
Explanation:
To construct a 99% confidence interval for the population mean μ, we can use the formula:
CI = x± t * (s/√n)
Where CI is the confidence interval, x is the sample mean, t is the t-value, s is the sample standard deviation, and n is the sample size. In this case, x = 32.8, s = 7.2, and n = 27.
To find the t-value, we need to determine the degrees of freedom (df), which is equal to n - 1. So, df = 27 - 1 = 26. Looking up the t-value for a 99% confidence level with 26 degrees of freedom in a t-table or using calculator software, we find it to be approximately 2.787.
Substituting these values into the formula, we get:
CI = 32.8 ± 2.787 * (7.2/√27)
Calculating this, we find that the confidence interval is approximately (29.4, 36.2).
The margin of error, also known as the error bound for a population mean (EBM), is half the width of the confidence interval. So, the margin of error in this case is (36.2 - 32.8)/2 = 1.7.
Interpreting the results, we can say that we are 99% confident that the population mean μ lies within the range of 29.4 to 36.2 minutes. Furthermore, the margin of error of 1.7 indicates how much the sample mean could vary from the population mean, taking into account the variability in the data.

Suppose Clay, a grocery store owner, is monitoring the rate at which customers enter his store. After watching customers enter for several weeks, he determines that the amount of time in between customer arrivals follows an exponential distribution with mean 25
What is the 70th percentile for the amount of time between customers entering Clay's store? Round your answer to the nearest two decimal places. 70th percentile
Answer:
70th percentile for the amount of time between customers entering is 30.10
Step-by-step explanation:
given data
mean = 25
to find out
What is the 70th percentile for the amount of time between customers entering Clay's store
solution
we know that here mean is
mean = [tex]\frac{1}{\lambda}[/tex] ..................1
so here 25 = [tex]\frac{1}{\lambda}[/tex]
and we consider time value corresponding to 70th percentile = x
so we can say
P(X < x) = 1 - [tex]e^{- \lambda *x}[/tex]
P(X < x) = 70 %
1 - [tex]e^{\frac{-x}{25}}[/tex] = 70 %
1 - [tex]e^{\frac{-x}{25} }[/tex] = 0.70
[tex]e^{\frac{- x}{25} }[/tex] = 0.30
take ln both side
[tex]\frac{-x}{25}[/tex] = ln 0.30
[tex]\frac{x}{25}[/tex] = 1.203973
x = 30.10
70th percentile for the amount of time between customers entering is 30.10
The 70th percentile for the amount of time between customers entering Clay's store is 30
How to determine the 70th percentile?The mean of an exponential distribution is:
[tex]E(x) = \frac 1\lambda[/tex]
The mean is 25.
So, we have:
[tex]\frac 1\lambda = 25[/tex]
Solve for [tex]\lambda[/tex]
[tex]\lambda = \frac 1{25}[/tex]
[tex]\lambda = 0.04[/tex]
An exponential function is represented as:
[tex]P(x < x) = 1 - e^{-\lambda x}[/tex]
For the 70th percentile, we have:
[tex]1 - e^{-\lambda x} = 0.70[/tex]
This gives
[tex]e^{-\lambda x} = 1 - 0.70[/tex]
[tex]e^{-\lambda x} = 0.30[/tex]
Substitute [tex]\lambda = 0.04[/tex]
[tex]e^{-0.04x} = 0.30[/tex]
Take the natural logarithm of both sides
[tex]-0.04x = \ln(0.30)[/tex]
This gives
[tex]-0.04x = -1.20[/tex]
Divide both sides by -0.04
[tex]x = 30[/tex]
Hence, the 70th percentile for the amount of time between customers entering Clay's store is 30

Number of men = 550
Number of women = 2400
Number of men have color blindness = 48
Number of women have color blindness = 5
So, [tex]p_M=\dfrac{48}{550}=0.087\\\\p_F=\dfrac{5}{2400}=0.0021[/tex]
So, at 98% confidence interval, z = 2.326
so, interval would be
[tex](p_M-P_F)\pm z\sqrt{\dfrac{p_M(1-p_M)}{n_M}+\dfrac{p_F(1-p_F)}{n_F}}\\\\=(0.087-0.0021)\pm 2.326\sqrt{\dfrac{0.087\times 0.912}{550}+\dfrac{0.0021\times 0.9979}{2400}}\\\\=0.0849\pm 2.326\times 0.012\\\\=(0.0849-0.027912, 0.0849+0.027912)\\\\=(0.06,0.11)[/tex]
Hence, 98% confidence interval is (0.06,0.11).
No, there does not appears to be a significant difference.
An appliance dealer sells three different models of upright freezers having 14.5, 16.9, and 19.1 cubic feet of storage space. Let x = the amount of storage space purchased by the next customer to buy a freezer. Suppose that x has the following probability distribution.x p(x)14.5 .216.9 .519.1 .3(a) Calculate the mean and standard deviation of x.(b) If the price of the freezer depends on the size of the storage space, x, such that Price = 25x - 8.5, what is the mean value of the variable Price paid by the next customer?(c) What is the standard deviation of the price paid?
The question is about calculating the mean and standard deviation of a discrete random variable representing the size of the freezer model a customer buys, and then the mean and standard deviation of the price paid, which is a function of the freezer size.
Explanation:The random variable X in this scenario represents the size of the freezer model (in cubic feet) that the next customer buys from the appliance dealer. This is a discrete random variable, with possible values being the sizes of the three available freezer models: 14.5, 16.9, and 19.1 cubic feet.
To calculate the mean and standard deviation of X, we can use the formula for the mean of a discrete random variable and the formula for the standard deviation respectively, which are given as follows:
Mean (expected value), E(X) = Σ [x * p(x)]
Standard Deviation, σ(X) = sqrt{Σ [(x - μ)² * p(x)]}
The mean value of the second variable (Price) can be calculated by plugging the expected value of X into the given Price = 25X - 8.5 equation, and the standard deviation by applying the transformation rule for standard deviations (σ_Y = |b| * σ_X, where b is the coefficient of X in the original expression for Y, which in this case is 25).

Flip a coin 100 times. We want the chance of getting exactly 50 heads. What is the exact probability, correct to six decimal places? What is the Normal approximation of the probability, to six decimal places?
Answer: a) 0.079589 b) 0.079656
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of times a coin is flipped = 100 times
Number of times he get exactly head = 50
Probability of getting head = [tex]\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
We will use "Binomial distribution":
Probability would be
[tex]^{100}C_{50}(\dfrac{1}{2})^{50}(\dfrac{1}{2})^50\\\\=0.079589[/tex]
Using "Normal approximation":
n = 100
p = 0.5
So, mean = [tex]np=100\times 0.5=50[/tex]
Standard deviation is given by
[tex]\sqrt{np(1-p)}\\\\=\sqrt{50(1.05)}\\\\=\sqrt{50\times 0.5}\\\\=\sqrt{25}\\\\=5[/tex]
So,
[tex]P(X<x)=P(Z<\dfrac{\bar{x}-\mu}{\sigma})\\\\So, P(X=50)=P(49.5<X<50.5)\\\\=P(\dfrac{49.5-50}{5}<Z<\dfrac{50.5-50}{5})\\\\=P(-0.1<Z<0.1)\\\\=P(Z<0.1)-P(Z<-0.1)\\\\=0.539828-0.460172\\\\=0.079656[/tex]
Hence, a) 0.079589 b) 0.079656

A statistician uses Chebyshev's Theorem to estimate that at least 15 % of a population lies between the values 9 and 20. Use this information to find the values of the population mean, μ , and the population standard deviation σ.
Answer:
\mu = 14.5\\
\sigma = 5.071\\
k = 1.084
Step-by-step explanation:
given that a statistician uses Chebyshev's Theorem to estimate that at least 15 % of a population lies between the values 9 and 20.
i.e. his findings with respect to probability are
[tex]P(9<x<20) \geq 0.15\\P(|x-14.5|<5.5) \geq 0.15[/tex]
Recall Chebyshev's inequality that
[tex]P(|X-\mu |\geq k\sigma )\leq {\frac {1}{k^{2}}}\\P(|X-\mu |\leq k\sigma )\geq 1-{\frac {1}{k^{2}}}\\[/tex]
Comparing with the Ii equation which is appropriate here we find that
[tex]\mu =14.5[/tex]
Next what we find is
[tex]k\sigma = 5.5\\1-\frac{1}{k^2} =0.15\\\frac{1}{k^2}=0.85\\k=1.084\\1.084 (\sigma) = 5.5\\\sigma = 5.071[/tex]
Thus from the given information we find that
[tex]\mu = 14.5\\\sigma = 5.071\\k = 1.084[/tex]

Consider the sequence −8, −4, 0, 4, 8, 12, ellipsis. Select True or False for each statement. A recursive rule for the sequence is f(1) = −8; f(n) = −4 (n − 1) for all n ≥ 2. A True B False An explicit rule for the sequence is f(n) = −8 + 4 (n − 1). A True B False The tenth term is 28.
Answer:
A recursive rule for the sequence is f(1) = -8; f(n) = -4 (n – 1) for all n ≥ 2 is "FALSE"
An explicit rule for the sequence is f(n) = -8 + 4 (n – 1) is "TRUE"
The tenth term is 28 is "TRUE"
Step-by-step explanation:
Statement (1)
While the first part [f(1) = –8] is TRUE, the second part [f(n) = –4 (n – 1) for all n ≥ 2] would only be true if the sequence ends at the second term.
Check: Since the fifth term of the sequence is 8, then f(5) = 8
From the statement,
f(5) = –4 (5 – 1)
f(5) = –4 × 4 = –16
:. f(5) ≠ 8
Statement (2)
f(n) = –8 + 4 (n – 1) is TRUE
Check: The fifth term of the sequence is 8 [f(5) = 8]
From the statement,
f(5) = –8 + 4 (5 – 1)
f(5) = –8 + 4 (4)
f(5) = –8 + 16 = 8
:. f(5) = 8
Statement (3)
f(10) = 28 is TRUE
Since the explicit rule is TRUE, use to confirm if f(10) = 28:
f(10) = –8 + 4 (10 – 1)
f(10) = –8 + 4 (9)
f(10) = –8 + 36
f(10) = 28
:. f(10) = 28

Suppose the returns on long-term government bonds are normally distributed. Assume long-term government bonds have a mean return of 6.0 percent and a standard deviation of 9.9 percent. a. What is the approximate probability that your return on these bonds will be less than −3.9 percent in a given year?
Answer:
0.1587
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be the random variable that represents a return on long-term government bond. We know that X has a mean of 6.0 and a standard deviation of 9.9, in order to compute the approximate probability that your return on these bonds will be less than -3.9 percent in a given year, we should compute the z-score related to -3.9, i.e., (-3.9-6.0)/9.9 = -1. Therefore, we are looking for P(Z < -1) = 0.1587
According to the Census Bureau, 3.36 people reside in the typical American household. A sample of 25 households in Arizona retirement communities showed the mean number of residents per household was 2.71 residents. The standard deviation of this sample was 1.10 residents. At the .10 significance level, is it reasonable to conclude the mean number of residents in the retirement community household is less than 3.36 persons? State the null hypothesis and the alternate hypothesis
Answer:
We conclude that the mean number of residents in the retirement community household is less than 3.36 persons.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
Population mean, μ = 3.36
Sample mean, [tex]\bar{x}[/tex] = 2.71
Sample size, n = 25
Alpha, α = 0.10
Sample standard deviation, s = 1.10
First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis
[tex]H_{0}: \mu = 3.36\text{ residents per household}\\H_A: \mu < 3.36\text{ residents per household}[/tex]
We use One-tailed(left) t test to perform this hypothesis.
Formula:
[tex]t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} }[/tex] Putting all the values, we have
[tex]t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{2.71 - 3.36}{\frac{1.10}{\sqrt{25}} } = -2.95[/tex]
Now, [tex]t_{critical} \text{ at 0.10 level of significance, 24 degree of freedom } =-1.31[/tex]
Since,
[tex]t_{stat} < t_{critical}[/tex]
We reject the null hypothesis and fail to accept it.
Thus, we conclude that the mean number of residents in the retirement community household is less than 3.36 persons.
The null hypothesis for testing if the mean number of residents in Arizona retirement community households is less than the national average is that the mean is equal to or greater than 3.36 residents. The alternate hypothesis is that it is less than 3.36 residents. A one-sample t-test would typically be used to test these hypotheses.
Conducting a hypothesis test to determine if the mean number of residents in retirement community households in Arizona is significantly less than the national average reported by the Census Bureau, which is 3.36 residents per household. To address this,
The null hypothesis (H0) is that the mean number of residents per household in the Arizona retirement communities is equal to or greater than the national average, = 3.36 residents.
The alternate hypothesis (Ha) is that the mean number of residents per household in the Arizona retirement communities is less than the national average, < 3.36 residents.
To test this hypothesis at a 0.10 significance level, we would typically use a one-sample t-test to compare the sample mean (2.71 residents) against the national average (3.36 residents) considering the sample standard deviation (1.10 residents) and sample size (25 households).
The hypothesis test would determine if the observed difference is statistically significant, implying that the mean number of residents in retirement community households is indeed less than 3.36 persons.

Personnel selection. Suppose that 7 female and 5 male applicants have been successfully screened for 5 positions. If the 5 positions are filled at random from the 12 âfinalists, what is the probability of selecting â
(A) 3 females and 2â males? â
(B) 4 females and 1â male? â
(C) 5â females?
â(D) At least 4â females?
The question involves calculating the probabilities of different combinations of females and males being selected for positions using the hypergeometric distribution, a concept in mathematics related to probability without replacement from two distinct groups.
Explanation:The question is related to the concept of probability in mathematics, specifically the use of the hypergeometric distribution, which is appropriate when sampling without replacement from a finite population divided into two groups. To calculate the probability of various combinations of female and male applicants selected for the positions, we need to use the hypergeometric probability formula:
For part (A), calculating the probability of selecting 3 females and 2 males:For part (B), calculating the probability of selecting 4 females and 1 male:For part (C), calculating the probability of selecting 5 females:For part (D), calculating the probability of selecting at least 4 females (which includes scenarios of selecting 4 or 5 females):These calculations involve combinations (denoted as C(n, k)) and the formula for hypergeometric probability, which is:
Hypergeometric Probability = [C(group1 size, group1 subset size) * C(group2 size, group2 subset size)] / C(total population size, total subset size)
Some sources report that the weights of full-term newborn babies in a certain town have a mean of 8 pounds and a standard deviation of 0.6 pounds and are normally distributed. a. What is the probability that one newborn baby will have a weight within 0.6 pounds of the meaning dash that is, between 7.4 and 8.6 pounds, or within one standard deviation of the mean
Answer:
0.682 is the probability that one newborn baby will have a weight within one standard deviation of the mean.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information in the question:
Mean, μ = 8 pounds
Standard Deviation, σ = 0.6 pounds
We are given that the distribution of weights of full-term newborn babies is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.
Formula:
[tex]z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
P(weight between 7.4 and 8.6 pounds)
[tex]P(7.4 \leq x \leq 8.6) = P(\displaystyle\frac{7.4 - 8}{0.6} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{8.6-8}{0.6}) = P(-1 \leq z \leq 1)\\\\= P(z \leq 1) - P(z < -1)\\= 0.841 - 0.159 = 0.682 = 68.2\%[/tex]
[tex]P(7.4 \leq x \leq 8.6) = 6.82\%[/tex]
This could also be found with the empirical formula.
0.682 is the probability that one newborn baby will have a weight within 0.6 pounds of the mean.
