A random sample of 21 desktop PCs is selected. The mean life span is 6.8 years with a standard deviation of 2.4 years. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean life span of all desktop PCs. Assume that the life spans of all desktop PCs are approximately normally distributed (a) (5.85, 7.75) (b) (1.68, 3.12) (c) (5.60, 8.00) (d) (5.71, 7.89) (e) (5.77, 7.83)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(d) (5.71, 7.89)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 21 - 1 = 20

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 20 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.086

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.086\frac{2.4}{\sqrt{21}} = 1.09[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 6.8 - 1.09 = 5.71 years

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 6.8 + 1.09 = 7.89 years

So the confidence interval is (5.71, 7.89), and the correct answer is given by option b.

Step-by-step explanation:

x² +4ax+y² =0

x² +4ax+4a² +y² =4a²

(x+2a) ² +y² =4a² ......(i)

By tracing the circle and the parabola we can clearly see that they touch each other along the y axis

The population of a rabbit colony triples each month.

The population started with 5 rabbits. How many

rabbits are there after 6 months?

Answers

Answer:

3645 rabbits after 6 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of a rabbit colony triples each month.

This means that the population of the colony after t months is given by:

[tex]P(t) = P(0)(3)^t[/tex]

In which P(0) is the initial population.

The population started with 5 rabbits.

This means that [tex]P(0) = 5[/tex]

So

[tex]P(t) = 5(3)^t[/tex]

How many rabbits are there after 6 months?

This is P(6). So

[tex]P(6) = 5(3)^6 = 3645[/tex]

3645 rabbits after 6 months.

Option C:

g(x) = -3^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we can see the graphs of f(x) and the graph of g(x).

By only looking at that, we can see that g(x) is a reflection across the x-axis of f(x).

Remember that for a general function f(x), the reflection across the x-axis is written as:

g(x) = -f(x).

Then, if f(x) = 3^x

and g(x) = -f(x)

replacing f(x) we get:

g(x) = -(3^x) = -3^x

The correct option is C.

What is the greatest solution of x in the equation x2 + 8x - 30 = 18?
Enter your answer in the box.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting 18,  we have the equation ...

  x^2 +8x -48 = 0

  (x +12)(x -4) = 0 . . . . . factored form

The values of x that make these factors zero are the solutions:

  x = -12, x = 4

The greatest solution is x=4.

Answer:

Greatest solution of x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

x² + 8x - 30 = 18

subtract 18 from both sides

x² + 8 x - 30 - 18 = 18 - 18

x ² + 8 x - 48 = 0

split 8x in middle form

x² + ( 12 x - 4 x ) - 48 = 0

factor out x from the first pair

x ( x + 12 ) - ( 4 x- 48 ) = 0

factor out 4 from the second pair

x ( x + 12) - 4 ( x + 12 ) = 0

x + 12 is common factor

x ( x + 12) - 4 ( x + 12 ) = 0

Group common factor

(x - 4) ( x + 12 ) = 0

When the product of factors equal 0, at least one factor is 0.

x - 4 = 0

x = 4

similarly,

x + 12 = 0

x = - 12

Greatest solution of x = 4

The list price on slacks is $22, and the list price on jumpers is $37. If Petit’s Clothing Store orders 30 pairs of slacks and 40 jumpers at a discount rate of 11%, what is the trade discount on the purchase?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the value of decimal equivalents of complements, net decimal equivalent and net price with the help of given data:

List price= $200

Trade discount series= 20/10

Calculate the decimal equivalents of complements using given formula:

Complements of successive discount = 

= 80% / 90%

Hence, decimal equivalent of complements are 80% / 90%.

Answer:

Trade discount = $235.40

Step-by-step explanation:

List price :

Slacks = 22

Jumpers = 37

Total amount before discount = (30 x 22) + ( 40 x 37)

                                              = 660  +  1480

                                              = 2140

Discount rate = 11%

So,

  [tex]Discount \ price = 11 \% \ of \ 2140\\\\Discount \ price = \frac{11}{100} \times 2140 = 235.40[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

−4 = 2(b + 5)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−4 = 2(b + 5)

−4 = (2)(b) + (2)(5)(Distribute)

−4 = 2b + 10

Step 2: Flip the equation.

2b + 10 = −4

Step 3: Subtract 10 from both sides.

2b + 10 − 10 = −4 − 10

2b = −14

Step 4: Divide both sides by 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

shslsfauahcaiscwrwpagw6wpwfwyw

Answer:

Jenny sold 128 braclets. 72 bracelets weren't sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

IMPORTANT FORMULA: TO CONVERT A NUMBER TO A PERCENT, YOU HAVE TO MULTIPLY BY 100. TO CONVERT A PERCENT TO A NUMBER, YOU HAVE TO DIVIDE BY 100.

a) How many bracelets did she sell?

Using the formula that is shown above, I can conclude that 64%=64/100=32/50=16/25

Jenny sold 64% of the 200 bracelets.

In mathematics, the word "of" means multiplication.

64% of 200 = 16/25 * 200 = 128

Jenny sold 128 braclets.

to answer part 2, 200 bracelets - 128 bracelets = 72 bracelets.

The circumference of the base of the cone is 8.5 inches. What is the volume of the cone in term of pi? Round to the nearest hundredth

Answers

Answer:  V = 270.94/pi

========================================================

Work Shown:

C = 2*pi*r  ......... circumference of the circular base

r = C/(2pi)

r = (8.5)/(2pi)

r = 4.25/pi

-------------

V = pi*r^2*h ...... volume of the cone

V = pi*(4.25/pi)^2*15

V = pi*(18.0625/pi^2)*15

V = (18.0625*15)/pi

V = 270.9375/pi ..... exact volume in terms of pi

If we round that decimal number up top to the nearest hundredth, then we end up with V = 270.94/pi

Intersection and conditional probability problem. Can anyone help solve this problem?

Answers

Part (a)

Refer to figure 1 in the attached image below. The a,b,c,d,e are placeholders for numbers we'll fill in later (that turns into the table for figure 2). Hopefully you agree about the placement of the numbers. If there's any confusion, then please let me know.

Along the bottom row, we can see that 39+e = 65 which solves to e = 26 after you subtract 39 from both sides. This tells us that there are 26 non-physics majors (ie their major is anything but physics).

Then along the "non-physics" column, notice how b+6 = e, which is the same as b+6 = 26 after replacing 'e' with 26. Solving that equation leads to b = 20. So we have 20 people who are seniors and non-physics majors.

Now move to the top row. We can see that a+b = 30, which is the same as a+20 = 30 because we plug in b = 20. That solves to a = 10. So we have 10 seniors who are physics majors.

----------------

Now along the first column, we have a+c = 39, aka 10+c = 39, which solves to c = 29. There are 29 non-seniors who are physics majors.

The last variable to find is variable d.

Along the second row, we can say,

c+6 = d

29+6 = d

d = 35

Or we could say that 30+d = 65 along the last column which also solves to d = 35. This tells us we have 35 non-seniors in the class.

----------------

To summarize so far, we have

a = 10, b = 20, c = 29, d = 35, e = 26

These values will replace the letters as shown in figure 2.

Figure 2 will be used to answer both parts (a) and (b).

----------------

After that (more than) slight detour of filling in the table, we can finally tackle the question at hand. We're asked to find the probability of selecting someone who is a senior and a physics major. We have a = 10 people who fit the description out of 65 total

Divide the two values and reduce the fraction as much as possible

10/65 = (2*5)/(13*5) = 2/13

Answer:   2/13

==========================================================

Part (b)

There's a lot going on with part (a). Luckily there aren't many steps here because pretty much all the work has been done already. We'll refer to figure 2 below.

We're told "given the student is a physics major", which means we focus solely on the "physics major" column only. We ignore everyone else because we know 100% that whoever we selected majored in physics.

We have a = 10 seniors who are also physics majors out of 39 physics majors total.
