Ace Heating and Air Conditioning Service finds that the amount of time a repairman needs to fix a furnace is uniformly distributed from 5 and 9 hours. . Let x = the time needed to fix a furnace.

Required:
a. What is the probability that it takes the repairman more than 7 hours to fix a furnace?
b. Find the probability that a randomly selected furnace repair requires less than 3 hours.
c. Find the 30th percentile of furnace repair times.
d. The longest 25% of repair furnace repairs take at least how long? (In other words: Find the minimum time for the longest 25% of repair times.) What percentile does this represent?
e. Find the mean and standard deviation

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a

[tex]P(X > 7) = 0.5[/tex]

b

[tex]P(X < 3) = -0.5[/tex]

c

[tex]x = 6.2 \ hours[/tex]

d

[tex]x_1 = 8 \ hours[/tex]

e

Mean [tex]\mu = 7[/tex]

Standard deviation [tex]s \approx 1.1547[/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The amount of time a repairman needs to fix a furnace is uniformly distributed from 5 and 9 hours

Generally the probability that it takes the repairman more than 7 hours to fix a furnace is mathematically represented as

     [tex]P(X > 7) = \frac{9- 7}{9-5}[/tex]

=>[tex]P(X > 7) = 0.5[/tex]

Generally the probability that a randomly selected furnace repair requires less than 3 hours. is mathematically represented as

     [tex]P(X < 3) = \frac{3 -5}{9-5}[/tex]

=>[tex]P(X < 3) = -0.5[/tex]

Generally the 30th percentile of furnace repair times is mathematically represented as

     [tex]30^{th} \ percentile = \frac{x - 5}{9-5}[/tex]

=>  [tex]0.3 = \frac{x - 5}{9-5}[/tex]

=>  [tex]x = 6.2 \ hours[/tex]

Generally the time taken for the longest 25% of furnace repair is mathematically evaluated as

  [tex]75^{th} \ percentile = \frac{x_1 - 5}{9-5}[/tex]

Here making use of the [tex]75^{th}[/tex] because we are considering duration that fall with the top [tex]25^{th}[/tex]

=> [tex]0.75 = \frac{x_1 - 5}{9-5}[/tex]

=> [tex]x_1 = 8 \ hours[/tex]

Generally the mean is mathematically represented as

          [tex]\mu = \frac{5 + 9 }{2}[/tex]

=>        [tex]\mu = 7[/tex]

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as

     [tex]s = \sqrt{ \frac{(9- 5)^2}{12} }[/tex]  

=>   [tex]s \approx 1.1547[/tex]

A sample of size 100 is selected from a population with p = .40.
a. What is the expected value of p(bar)?
b. What is the standard error of p(bar)?
c. Show the sampling distribution of p(bar)?
d. What does the sampling distribution of p show?

Answers

Answer:

(a) 0.40

(b) 0.049

(c) [tex]\bar p\sim N(0.40,0.049^{2})[/tex]

(d) Explained below

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central limit theorem, if from an unknown population large samples of sizes n > 30, are selected and the sample proportion for each sample is computed then the sampling distribution of sample proportion follows a Normal distribution.

The mean of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:

 [tex]E(\bar p)=p[/tex]

The standard deviation of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:

 [tex]SE(\bar p)=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Given:

n = 100

p = 0.40

As n = 100 > 30 the Central limit theorem is applicable.

(a)

Compute the expected value of [tex]\bar p[/tex] as follows:

[tex]E(\bar p)=p=0.40[/tex]

The expected value of [tex]\bar p[/tex] is 0.40.

(b)

Compute the standard error of [tex]\bar p[/tex] as follows:

[tex]SE(\bar p)=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\frac{0.40(1-0.40)}{100}}=0.049[/tex]

The standard error of [tex]\bar p[/tex] is 0.049.

(c)

The sampling distribution of [tex]\bar p[/tex] is:

[tex]\bar p\sim N(0.40,0.049^{2})[/tex]

(d)

The sampling distribution of p show that as the sample size is increasing the distribution is approximated by the normal distribution.

MD Model with Mathematics A comic store sells two rare
comic books for $1,824. The price of one comic book is
11 times as much as the price of the other.
• 'Write an equation to model the price of the less expensive
comic book. Then find the price.
• Write an equation to model the price of the more expensive
comic book. Then find the price.

Answers

Solution (a) :-

Let the cost of the less expensive comic book be x .

Then :-

[tex]1284 - 11x = x[/tex]

Using this equation , we can find the cost of the less expensive comic book .

Price of the less expensive book :-

[tex]1284 - 11x = x[/tex]

[tex]11x + x = 1284[/tex]

[tex]12x = 1284[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{1284}{12} [/tex]

[tex]x = 107[/tex]

Cost of the less expensive book is 107 .

Therefore , the epice of the less expensive book = $ 107 .

Solution (b) :-

Cost of the more expensive book = 11x

Which means :-

[tex]1284 - x = 11x[/tex]

[tex]11x + x = 1284[/tex]

[tex]12x = 1284[/tex]

[tex]x = 107[/tex]

[tex]11x = 11 \times 107[/tex]

[tex] = 1177[/tex]

Therefore , the price of the more expensive book = $ 1177 .

replacing the variables with the given values

77 = 9x + 44 + 6x + 3

77 = 15x + 47

15x = 30

x = 2

Finding ∠MON:

we are given that ∠MON = 6x +3

now that we know the values of x,

∠MON = 6(2) + 3

∠MON  = 12 + 3

∠MON = 15°

Perfect Purple Water The recipe for Perfect Purple Water says, "Mix 8 ml of blue water with 3 ml of red water." lada mixes 24 ml of blue water with 9 ml of red water. Andre mixes 16 ml of blue water with 9 ml of red water. . Which person will get a color mixture that is the same shade as Perfect Purple Water? Explain or show your reasoning.​

Answers

Analysing the question:

We are given that the ratio between the blue and red color is 8 : 3

as long as the volumes of the colours added simplify to 8 : 3 , the color will be Perfect Purple

Lada's Solution:

Lada mixed 24 mL of blue water with 9 mL of red water

we will try to simplify this ratio:

24:9 = 24 / 9

8 / 3

8 : 3

Hence, the ratio of the colours in Lada's mixture is correct. So, Lada will get perfect purple water

Andre's Solution:

Andre mixed 16mL of Blue water with 9 mL of red water

we will try to simplify this ratio:

16 : 9 = 16 / 9

THIS RATIO CANNOT BE SIMPLIFIED

Hence, the ratio of blue and red color in Andre's mixture is 16 : 9

but the ratio for a perfect purple color is 8 : 3

Since the ratio in Andre's mixture is incorrect, she will NOT get the perfect purple colour

Answer:

Lada will get a color mixture that is the same shade as Perfect Purple Water.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions

The mix for Perfect Purple Water contains 8 ml of blue water with 3 ml of red water.

The exact proportion of both ingredients is, blue to red:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{8}{3}[/tex]

Lada mixes 24 ml of blue water with 9 ml of red water. The proportion is:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{24}{9}[/tex]

Simplifying by 3:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{8}{3}[/tex]

The proportion obtained by Lada is the same shade as Perfect Purple Water.

Andre mixes 16 ml of blue water with 9 ml of red water, his proportion is:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{16}{9}[/tex]

This fraction cannot be reduced and its result is not exactly the same as the perfect required proportion.

Thus, Lada will get a color mixture that is the same shade as Perfect Purple Water.

Jacob is a construction worker who earns a yearly income given by the expression 2000x + 3000, where x is the number of hours he works each week. Carlos works with Jacob and earns a yearly income given by the expression 3800x – 40000. A manager predicts that if Carlos and Jacob each work 35 hours, they will earn the same amount of money.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x = 24[/tex]

24 is less than 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Jacob: 2000x + 3000

Carlos: 3800x - 40000

Solving (a):

To solve (a), we need to equate both expressions;

[tex]3800x - 40000 = 2000x + 3000[/tex]

Collect Like Terms

[tex]3800x - 2000x = 40000 + 3000[/tex]

[tex]1800x = 43000[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]x = 43000/1800[/tex]

[tex]x = 24[/tex] --- Approximated

Solving (b);

The manager's prediction is 35 hours.

And the actual hours is 24.

By comparison;

24 is less than 35
