1. A company that produces bread is concerned about the distribution of the amount of sodium in its bread. The company takes a simple random sample of 100 slices of bread and computes the sample mean to be 103 milligrams of sodium per slice. Assume that the population standard deviation is 10 milligrams. a) Construct a 95% confidence interval estimate for the mean sodium level. b) Construct a 99% confidence interval estimate for the mean sodium level.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 95% confidence interval is  [tex] 101.13  <  \mu < 104.87  [/tex]

The 99% confidence interval is  [tex] 100.54  <  \mu < 105.46   [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  sample size is  n = 110

    The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 103 \ mg[/tex]

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

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.96[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *  \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]E = 1.96 *  \frac{ 10 }{\sqrt{110} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]E =1.8688 [/tex]    

Generally 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]\= x -E <  \mu <  \=x  +E[/tex]

=>  [tex]103 - 1.8688 <  \mu < 103 + 1.8688 [/tex]

=>   [tex] 101.13  <  \mu < 104.87  [/tex]

Considering question b

From the question we are told the confidence level is  99% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 99 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  2.58[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *  \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]E = 2.58 *  \frac{ 10 }{\sqrt{110} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]E =2.4599  [/tex]    

Generally 99% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]\= x -E <  \mu <  \=x  +E[/tex]

=>  [tex]103 - 2.4599 <  \mu <103 + 2.4599  [/tex]

=>   [tex] 100.54  <  \mu < 105.46   [/tex]

A consultant for an association of personnel directors wants to find the proportion of clerical personnel that change jobs because they are bored with their work. The consultant queries a random sample of 400 clerical workers who recently changed jobs, 200 of which state that they changed jobs because they were bored. The consultant wishes to prepare a 95% confidence interval for the true proportion changing jobs because of boredom. What is the margin of error for this interval

Answers

Answer:

the margin of error for this interval is 0.049

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the margin of error for this interval is shown below;

Given that

n = 400

x = 200

Now

p = x ÷ n = 200 ÷ 400 = 0.5

Now the margin of error is

= [tex]z \times \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}} \\\\1.96 \times \sqrt{\frac{0.5 \times 0.5}{400} }[/tex]

= 0.049

Hence the margin of error for this interval is 0.049

Axis of symmetry: x = -0.5; Vertex: (-0.5, 0.75); f(x) = x2 + x + 1
Axis of symmetry: x = -0.5; Vertex: (-0.5, -0.75); f(x) = x2 - x + 1
Axis of symmetry: x = -0.5; Vertex: (-0.5, 0.75); f(x) = -x2 + x
Axis of symmetry: x = -0.5; Vertex: (-0.5, 0.75); f(x) = x2 + 2x + 1

Answers

Answer:

Option A: Axis of symmetry: x = -0.5; Vertex: (-0.5, 0.75); f(x) = x2 + x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The axis of symmetry of quadratic graph is the vertical line that divides the graph curve into two congruent halves. In this case, it is: x = -0.5

2) Vertex is the point at which the graph curve changes direction or simply coordinates of the crest or trough of the curve.

The graph given has a trough with the coordinates: x = -0.5, y = 0.75. This is (-0.5, 0.75)

3) The roots of a quadratic equation are the points where the curve crosses the x-axis. In this case, it doesn't cross and so we have imaginary roots.

Now, formula for line of symmetry is; x = -b/2a

Thus; -b/2a = -0.5 or -b/2a = -1/2

Thus, b = 1 and a = 1

Our first and second terms will now be;

x² + x

Looking at the options, the only one with x² + x as it's first 2 terms is option A.

Thus, the complete equation will be x² + x + 1

30x-12y=60

-24x =-48

divide both sides by -24

-24x/-24=-48/-24

y=2

A friend offers to play a game, in which you roll 3 standard 6-sided dice. If all the dice roll
different values, you give him $1. If any two dice match values, you get $2. What is the expected value of this game?

Answers

Answer: The expected value is $0.32

Step-by-step explanation:

The expected value can be calculated as:

EV = ∑xₙ*pₙ

Where:

xₙ is the n-th event.

pₙ is the probability of the n-th event.

First, let's see the events in this situation and the probability of each event.

Lossing $1.

This happens when you roll all different numbers.

To calculate the number of combinations where you roll all different values, we first need to count the number of possible options for each roll, this is:

First dice: you have 6 options

Second dice: You have 5 options, because we remove the option that was rolled in the first dice.

Third dice: You have 4 options, because we removed the two outcomes showed in the two previous rolls.

Then the number of combinations is:

c = 6*5*4 = 120.

And the total number of combinations for rolling 3 dice is equal to the product between the number of outcomes for each dice, each dice has 6 possible outcomes, then the total number of outcomes is:

C = 6*6*6 = 216

The probability of rolling all different numbers will be equal to the quotient between the number of combinations where you roll all different values and the total number of combinations:

P₁ = 120/216 = 0.56

In the other case, where you roll at least two equal outcomes, you win $2.

The probability for this case will be the complement of the previous one, then the probability can be calculated as:

P₂ = 1 - P₁ = 1 - 0.56 = 0.44

Then the expected value will be:

EV = -$1*0.56 + $2*0.44 =  $0.32

The expected value is $0.32

Proof:-

Given a vector  u = x₁ i + y₁j +z₁k

let O X, OY, O Z be the positive co-ordinate axes

P(x₁,y₁,z₁) be any point in the space

Let OP makes angles α,β,γ with co-ordinate axes OX , OY ,OZ .

The angle α,β,γ are known as direction angles and cosine of the angle

l =cosα , m= cosβ , n=cosγ

The perpendicular PA,PB,PC are drawn co-ordinate axes OX,OY,OZ respecctively

InΔOCP , ∠C =90° , cosγ =[tex]\frac{z}{r}[/tex]

                                z₁ = rcosγ

Given   u = x₁ i + y₁j +z₁k

      |u| = [tex]\sqrt{(x_{1})^{2} +(x_{2} )^{2} +(x_{3} )^{2} }[/tex]

Therefore  u = x₁ i + y₁j +z₁k

The winning prices for the first and second game are $1 and $2 respectively. a. If he wins the second game, what is the probability that he lost the first game

Answers

Answer:

0.5532

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these events

WF = Wins the first game

LF = lose the first game

WS = Wins the second game

LS = lose the second game

Then

Prob(WF) = 0.6

Prob(LF) = 0.4

Prob(WS|WF) = 0.35

Prob(WS|LF) = 0.65

1. If he wins the second game, the probability that he lost the first =

P(Lf|WS)

= 0.4x0.65/0.4x0.65+0.6x0.35

= 0.21/0.47

= 0.5532

0.5532 is the probability that he lost the first game given that he wins the second

the picture frame is 52 inches, what is the length, l, and width, w, of the frame? Write and
solve an equation to model the problem. Explain the meaning of the solution.

Answers

Answer:

Length = 12 inches

Width = 14 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for perimeter of a rectangle is;

P = 2(L + W)

Where;

L is length

W is width

We are told that the length is 2 inches shorter than its width. Thus;

L = (W - 2)

Thus,perimeter is now;

P = 2(W - 2 + W)

P = 2(2W - 2)

P = 4W - 4

We are told that the perimeter is 52. Thus;

4W - 4 = 52

4W = 52 + 4

4W = 56

W = 56/4

W = 14 inches

From L = (W - 2) ;

L = 14 - 2

L = 12 inches

quadrilateral ABCD is dilated by a scale factor of 2 centered around (2,2). Which statement is true about the dilation?

Answers

Answer:

The vertices of the image will have the coordinates

A(-5, 1) → A'(2x-2, 2y-2) → A'(-12, 0)

B(-4, 3) → B'(2x-2, 2y-2) → B'(-10, 4)

C(1, 2) → C'(2x-2, 2y-2) → C'(0, 2)

D(-3, 0) → D'(2x-2, 2y-2) → D'(-8, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: You missed to mention the vertices of a quadrilateral ABCD. So, I am assuming the following vertices. It would anyways clear your concept.

Let us suppose

A(-5, 1)B(-4, 3)C(1, 2)D(-3, 0)

We know that the rule of the dilation with the center of dilation at (2,2) by a scale factor of 2 is:

(x, y) → (2x-2, 2y-2)

Therefore, the vertices of the image will have the coordinates

A(-5, 1) → A'(2x-2, 2y-2) → A'(-12, 0)

B(-4, 3) → B'(2x-2, 2y-2) → B'(-10, 4)

C(1, 2) → C'(2x-2, 2y-2) → C'(0, 2)

D(-3, 0) → D'(2x-2, 2y-2) → D'(-8, -2)

We can use point P and point V's coordinates to find the slope.

Point P is at (2,4)

Point V is at (3,0)

Let's define all the variables:

y2 = 0 (from point V)

y1 = 4 (from point P)

x2 = 3 (from point V)

x1 = 2 (from point P)

Now that we have all the variables we can plug it into the equation:

Therefore, the slope of line PV is -4.

A farmer notices that there is a linear relationship between the number of bean stalks, n, she plants and the yield, Y. When she plants 2 stalks, each plant yields 70 ounces of beans. When she plants 8 stalks, each plant yields 160 ounces of beans.

Which of these equations correctly represents this situation?

Select the correct answer below:


Y(n)=19n+32

Y(n)=11n+72

Y(n)=11n+48

Y(n)=19n+8

Y(n)=15n+30

Y(n)=15n+40

Answers

Answer:

Y(n)=15n+40

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets represent the number of bean stalks she plant by n and

the yield by Y.

It says in the question that when she plants 2 stalks, each plant yields 70 ounces of beans. When she plants 8 stalks, each plant yields 160 ounces of beans.

Which means 2 stalks correspond to 70 ounces and 8 stalks corresponds to 160 ounces we could write the data Mathematically like:

(2 , 70) and (8 , 160) are our coordinates where the x-axis would be n the number of beans stalks planted  and y-axis would be Y the yield in ounces.

So we have two coordinates and to find the linear relationship we must find out the slope/gradient(m) of the linear function by the formula of slope:

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\m=\frac{160-70}{8-2} \\\\m=\frac{90}{6} \\\\m=15[/tex]

so we plug in one of the coordinates and our slope in the point-slope formula :

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

where,

[tex](x_1,y_1)\ represent\ the\ coordinate\ (2,70)[/tex]

so plugging in the coordinate and the value of m we get:

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-70=15(x-2)\\y-70=15x-30\\y=15x-30+70\\y=15x+40\\[/tex]

so our the answer is the last option

Y(n)=15n+40

here x corresponds to n and y corresponds to Y(n)

A suppliers sold a machine levying 13% vat on rupees 320000 to a retailer. the retailer spent rupees 10000 for transportation and rupees 5000 for the local tax if the retailer sold it at a profit of rupees 15000 to a customer how much did the customer pay for the machine with 13% vat? ​

Answers

Answer:

395,500

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation is shown below:

Supplier to retailer = 320,000

Vat tax = 13%

Retailer spent for transportation = 10,000

local tax = 5,000

Profit = 15,000

Now based on the above information

the customer would pay the amount with 13% vat is

= (320,000 + 10,000 + 5,000 + 15,000) + 13% of total

= 350,000 + 13% of 350,000

= 350,000 + 45,500

= 395,500
