5. A population has a normal distribution with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of
10. If a random sample of size 9 is taken from the population, then what is the
probability that this sample mean will be between 48 and 54?
a. 0.060
b. 0.228
c. 0.385
d. 0.399
e. 0.611

Answers

Answer 1

Using the normal distribution and the central limit theorem, it is found that the probability is given by:

e. 0.611

Normal Probability Distribution

The z-score of a measure X of a normally distributed variable with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex] is given by:

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

The z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is above or below the mean. Looking at the z-score table, the p-value associated with this z-score is found, which is the percentile of X.By the Central Limit Theorem, the sampling distribution of sample means of size n has standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

In this problem, the parameters are given as follows:

[tex]\mu = 50, \sigma = 10, n = 9, s = \frac{10}{\sqrt{9}} = 3.3333[/tex]

The probability that this sample mean will be between 48 and 54 is the p-value of Z when X = 54 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 48, hence:

X = 54:

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

By the Central Limit Theorem:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{54 - 50}{3.3333}[/tex]

Z = 1.2

Z = 1.2 has a p-value of 0.885.

X = 48:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{48 - 50}{3.3333}[/tex]

Z = -0.6

Z = -0.6 has a p-value of 0.274.

0.885 - 0.274 = 0.611, hence option e is correct.

Leo buys pasta for 12 people,
(a)
Each person eats 100 grams of pasta.
One packet has 500 grams of pasta.
How many packets must Leo buy?

Answers

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

If each packet has 500 grams, and each person eats 100 grams, then one packet will feed five people (500/100=5). Since he will be buying pasta for 12 people, he will need to buy three packets, because 3*500=1500 grams. While there is some extra, buying only two packets would result in not enough pasta.

I NEED HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

just think back to the standard circle of radius = 1.

there the trigonometric functions are all represented as sides of right-angled triangles, where the radius is the baseline.

just like the triangle we are seeing here.

the only difference : the baseline (radius) is 17 and not 1.

and that is fine. everything is as in the standard circle, but multiplied by the radius (which is also true for the standard circle, but multiplying by 1 does not change anything, right ?).

a)

angle A is or focus. so, just imagine the triangle turned counterclockwise by 90° (so that AC is horizontal and CB is vertical).

do you see it now ?

sin is the vertical leg, cos the horizontal leg. and the leg lengths here are the standard functions multiplied by the radius.

so,

17 × sin A = 8

sin A = 8/17 = 0.470588235... ≈ 0.47

b)

17 × cos A = 15

cos A = 15/17 = 0.882352941... ≈ 0.88

c)

now B is our focus. imagine the triangle being mirrored at point B, so that B is left, and AC is right. your see it now ?

tan B = sin B / cos B

sin B = 15/17 = 0.882352941... ≈ 0.88

cos B = 8/17 = 0.470588235... ≈ 0.47

tan B = 15/17 / 8/17 = 15/8 = 1.875 ≈ 1.88

cos B = 8/17 = 0.470588235... ≈ 0.47

A large box of crackers weighs 20 oz. If James needs 3 pounds of crackers for a party, how many boxes of crackers should he buy?

Answers

If James needs 3 pounds of crackers, and
each box is 200z, that means each box is a little over 1 pound. (1.25 pounds to be exact). So, we know that he needs to buy 3 boxes of crackers. This is because 20×3=60 ounces which is 3.75 pounds. Meaning, 3 boxes is the correct answer since we can't cut a box in half.

You throw a football and it leaves your hand of 5 feet. Its initial velocity is 20 feet per second. What is the maximum height the ball will reach? Also, how long will it take the ball to hit the ground? (Equation used: h(t)= -16t^2 + v0t + h0.)
Please show work

Answers

Answer:

The max height is 11.25 feet and the ball will take 1.464 seconds to hit the ground

Step-by-step explanation:

The quickest way to solve this equation is by using the equation that you gave, which is h(t)= -16t^2 + v0t + h0. This equation models the trajectory of the football, which means that at the equation's vertex, we can model what the height of the ball is. Along with that, by finding the positive root of where h(t) = 0, we can find how long it will take for the ball to hit the ground.

First, lets find h0 and v(0)

h0 is the initial height of the ball. So we know that the ball leaves your hand of 5 feet, so h0 = 5. Similarly, the initial velocity is 20 ft/sec, so v0 = 20.

Plugging 5 in for h0 and 20 for v0, we get h(t) = -16t^2 + 20t + 5.

Second, find max height.

To find the vertex of a parabola, use -b/2a to find the time, and plug that into h(t) to get the height.

b=20

a=-16

t = -b/2a = -20/2(-16) = .625 seconds

h(.625) = 11.25 feet

The max height is 11.25 feet

Third, find how long.

To find this, we need to find the t-intercepts of the equation.

set h(t) = 0

-16t^2 + 20t + 5 = 0

Use quadratic formula to find t

t = (- 20 ± [tex]\sqrt{20^{2} - 4(-16)(5)}[/tex])/2(-16)

t = {1.464}, -.214

The ball will take 1.464 seconds to hit the ground.

which is ultimitaly 63

Answer:

it's gonna be 63cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, were gonna find the area of the rectangular portion, which is 8x6, which is 48cm^2

Next, well do the triangle part. So, we have to subtract 13-8 to get the width of the triangle.

Next, we have to find the area for the triangle. The formula is length x width / 2.

So, we have to multiply 6x5 to get 30.

Then, well divide it by 2, which will give us 15cm^2

Finally, we add the areas of rectangle and the triangle together. 15 + 48 is 63.

Bada-bing, bada-boom, we got 63cm^2 as our answer :)

30 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles of each side of a hexagon is 120 degrees.

The sum of interior angles in a shape is (n-2) * 180.

So,

(6-2) * 180 = 4 * 180 = 720 degrees

This is the total degrees of the hexagon.

Dividing the total degrees by 6 angles gives us 120 degrees for each angle.

Angle AEF = angle FED - angle AED.

Angle FED = 120 degrees

Angle AED = 90 degrees

120 - 90 = 30 degrees
