Every time you have your cholesterol measured, the measurement may be slightly different due to random fluctuations and measurement error. Suppose that for you, the population of possible cholesterol measurements if you are healthy has a mean of 190 and a standard deviation of 10. Further, suppose you know you should get concerned if your measurement ever gets up to the 97th percentile. What level of cholesterol does that represent?

Answer:

a i

[tex]P(X  < 185 ) =  0.3085 [/tex]

a ii

[tex]P(X  > 195 ) =  0.3085 [/tex]

a iii

[tex]P(185 < X <  195 ) = 0.3829  [/tex]

b

[tex]x =  208.8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that  

   The mean is  [tex]\mu =  190[/tex]

   The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma  =  10[/tex]

   

Generally the probability is  less than 185  is mathematically represented as

      [tex]P(X  < 185 ) =  P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } < \frac{185 - 190 }{10 }   )[/tex]

Generally [tex]\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } = Z (The  \ standardized \  value  \  \ of  \  X)[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(X  < 185 ) =  P(Z< -0.5)[/tex]

From the z-table the p value  of  (Z< -0.5) is

    [tex]P(Z< -0.5) = 0.3085[/tex]

So

    [tex]P(X  < 185 ) =  0.3085 [/tex]

Generally the probability is  less than 185  is mathematically represented as

      [tex]P(X > 195 ) =  P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } > \frac{195 - 190 }{10 }   )[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(X  >  195 ) =  P(Z > 0.5)[/tex]

From the z-table the p value  of  (Z > 0.5) is

    [tex]P(Z > 0.5) = 0.3085[/tex]

So

    [tex]P(X  > 195 ) =  0.3085 [/tex]

Generally the probability is  less than 185  is mathematically represented as

      [tex]P(185 < X <  195 ) =  P( \frac{185 - 190 }{10 } <  \frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } <  \frac{195 - 190 }{10 } )[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(185 < X <  195 ) =  P(-0.5 < Z > 0.5)[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(185 < X <  195 ) = P(Z  <  0.5 ) -  P(Z <  -0.5) [/tex]

From the z-table the p value  (Z <  0.5) and  (Z <  -0.5) is  

    [tex]P(Z < 0.5) =  0.6915 [/tex]

and  

   [tex]P(Z < - 0.5) = 0.3085[/tex]

So

=>   [tex]P(185 < X <  195 ) = 0.6915 -  0.3085 [/tex]

=>   [tex]P(185 < X <  195 ) = 0.3829  [/tex]

Generally the level of cholesterol the 97th percentile represents  is mathematically evaluated as

    [tex]P(X < x ) =  0.97[/tex]

=> [tex]P(X < x ) = P(\frac{X - \mu}{\sigma }  <  \frac{x - 190}{10 }  ) = 0.97[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(X < x ) = P(Z <  \frac{x - 190}{10 }  ) = 0.97[/tex]

From the z-table  the z-score for  0.97  is  

      [tex]z-score =  1.88[/tex]

=>

  [tex]\frac{x - 190}{10 } =  1.88[/tex]

=>[tex]x =  208.8[/tex]

A quadrilateral with 90 degree angles is shown. The lengths of the left and right sides are 10 and 2 y + 4. The lengths of the top and bottom sides are 18 and 10 + 2 x. What is the value of y? 3 4 5 6

Answers

Answer: y=3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the quadrilateral has 90 degree angles, it must be a a square or a rectangle. This means the measure of sides left and right are the same and the measure of sides top and bottom are the same.

To get the measure of y, you can use left and right or top nd bottom.

I'll use left and right. 10=2y+4 => 10-4=2y => 6=2y => y=3

You can check it by substituting. 2(3)+4=10      The answer is the measure of the right side, which is the same as the measure of the left side.

Personal Finance: Cost of a Car The suggested list price of a new car is $24,000. The dealer’s cost is 85% of list. How much will you pay if the dealer is willing to accept $300 over cost for the car?

Answers

Answer: $20,700

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

List price of car = $24,000

Dealer's cost = 85% of the list price of the car

Dealer acceptance cost = $300 over the cost

Hence, total amount to be paid :

Dealer's cost + dealer's acceptance cost

Dealer's cost = (0.85 * $24,000) = $21,400

Hence, Total cost :

$20,400 + $300 = $20,700

The mean mark of a group of 10 boys is 58. If the mean of 7 of them is 61, what is the mean of the remaining 3 boys

Answers

Answer:

The mean of the remaining 3 boys is 51.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean mark of the entire group ([tex]p_{10}[/tex]), dimensionless, is:

[tex]p_{10} = \frac{1}{10}\cdot \Sigma_{i = 1}^{10} x_{i}[/tex] (Eq. 1)

([tex]p_{10} = 58[/tex])

[tex]\frac{1}{10}\cdot \Sigma_{i=1}^{10} x_{i} = 58[/tex] (Eq. 1b)

Where [tex]x_{i}[/tex] is the mark of the i-th boy, dimensionless.

In addition, we know the following mean marks from statement:

[tex]p_{7} = \frac{1}{7} \cdot \Sigma_{i = 1}^{7} x_{i}[/tex] (Eq. 2)

([tex]p_{7} = 61[/tex])

[tex]\frac{1}{7}\cdot \Sigma_{i=1}^{7} x_{i} = 61[/tex] (Eq. 2b)

[tex]p_{3} = \frac{1}{3}\cdot \Sigma_{i=8}^{10}x_{i}[/tex] (Eq. 3)

Where:

[tex]p_{7}[/tex] - Mean mark of the first 7 boys, dimensionless.

[tex]p_{3}[/tex] - Mean mark of the remaining 3 boys, dimensionless.

By applying sum properties in (Eq. 1b) and using (Eq. 2b) and (Eq. 3), we obtain the mean of the remaining 3 boys:

[tex]\frac{1}{10}\cdot [\Sigma_{i = 1}^{7}x_{i}+\Sigma_{i=8}^{10}x_{i}] = 58[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{10}\cdot [7\cdot (61)+3\cdot p_{3}] = 58[/tex]

[tex]7\cdot (61) + 3\cdot p_{3} = 580[/tex]

[tex]3\cdot p_{3} = 153[/tex]

[tex]p_{3} = \frac{153}{3}[/tex]

[tex]p_{3} = 51[/tex]

The mean of the remaining 3 boys is 51.

The table shows the makeup of a New Year’s Eve television show. What fraction of the show will be for the audience to speak?
Table:
Introduction: 10%
Skits: 25%

Answers

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the fraction of the show will be for the audience to speak. Here, the part of the audience is 20%.

We know that, percent means we need to divide the value by 100 i.e.

[tex]20\%=\dfrac{20}{100}\\\\=\dfrac{2}{10}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{5}[/tex]

So, the required fraction is 1/5.

.The annual yield per orange tree is fairly constant at 270 pounds per tree when the number of trees per acre is 30 or fewer. For each additional tree over 30, the annual yield per tree for all trees on the acre decreases by 3 pounds due to overcrowding. Find the number of orange trees per acre, x, that maximizes the total yield for an acre, T, in pounds. What is the total maximum yield in pounds of oranges

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the yield per hectare be Y and the number of orange trees per acre, x. For fewer than or 30 trees there is a yield of  270 pounds per tree, therefore:

Y(x) = 270    for x ≤ 30

If it is more than 30 trees the yield decreases by 3 pounds, hence:

Y(x) = 270 - 3(x - 30) = 360 - 3x   for x > 30

The total yield T is given as T(x) = x × Y

T(x) = x × 270 = 270x   for x ≤ 30

T(x) =  x(360 - 3x) = 360x - 3x²   for x > 30

The maximum yield is at T'(x) = 0

T'(x) = 360 - 6x

360 - 6x = 0

6x = 360

x = 360/6

x = 60

T(6) = 360(60) - 3(60²) = 10800 pounds

A candy company claims that 20% of the candies in its bags are colored green. Steve buys 30 bags of 30 candies, randomly selects one candy from each, and counts the number of green candies. If there are 5, 6, or 7 green candies, Steve will conclude that the company’s claim is correct. What is the probability of Steve agreeing with the company’s claim? Use a TI-83, TI-83 plus, or TI-84 calculator to find the probability.

Answers

Answer:

The probability of Steve agreeing with the company’s claim is 0.50502.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X denote the number of green candies.

The probability of green candies is, p = 0.20.

Steve buys 30 bags of 30 candies, randomly selects one candy from each, and counts the number of green candies.

So, n = 30 candies are randomly selected.

All the candies are independent of each other.

The random variable X follows a binomial distribution with parameter n = 30 and p = 0.20.

It is provided that if there are 5, 6, or 7 green candies, Steve will conclude that the company’s claim is correct.

Compute the probability of 5, 6 and 7 green candies as follows:

[tex]P(X=5)={30\choose 5}(0.20)^{5}(1-0.20)^{30-5}=0.17228\\\\P(X=6)={30\choose 6}(0.20)^{6}(1-0.20)^{30-6}=0.17946\\\\P(X=7)={30\choose 7}(0.20)^{7}(1-0.20)^{30-7}=0.15328[/tex]

Then the probability of Steve agreeing with the company’s claim is:

P (Accepting the claim) = P (X = 5) + P (X = 6) + P (X = 7)

                                       = 0.17228 + 0.17946 + 0.15328

                                       = 0.50502

Thus, the probability of Steve agreeing with the company’s claim is 0.50502.

The lions and the tigers played a football game the lions scored three more than three times the number of points the tigers scored

Answers

This question is incomplete

Complete Question

The lions and the tigers played a football game. The Lions scored three more than three times the number of points the Tigers scored. The total number of points scored by both teams is 31. How many points were scored by each team?

Answer:

The number of points scored by the Lions = 24

The number of points scored by the Tigers = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of points scored by the lion = l

The number of points scored by the tiger = t

The Lions scored three more than three times the number of points the Tigers scored.

l = 3 + 3(t)

The total number of points scored by both teams is 31.

= l + t = 31

3 + 3t + t = 31

4t = 31 - 3

4t = 28

t = 28/4

t = 7 points

Note:

l + t = 31

I = 31 - t

l = 31 - 7

l = 24 points

The number of points scored by the Lions = 24

The number of points scored by the Tigers = 7

If Aloma plans to donate $240,000, what rate of return must the university realize in order to award the annual scholarship forever?


The rate of return that the university must realize in order to award the annual scholarship forever is _____%.

Answers

Answer:

5.73%

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for the rate of return that the university must realize

Using this formula

Rate of return = Initial payment/(Plan to donate- Initial payment)

Let plug in the formula

Rate of return=$13,000/($240,000-$13,000)

Rate of return=$13,000/$227,000

Rate of return=0.0573*100

Rate of return =5.73%

Therefore The rate of return that the university must realize in order to award the annual scholarship forever is 5.73 %.
