We discovered that 650 GSS respondents in 2006 watched television for an average of 2.98 hrs/day, with a standard deviation of 2.4 hours. Answer the following questions, assuming the distribution of the number of television hours is normal. What is the Z score for a person who watches more than 8 hrs/day. 2.09 What proportion of people watch 5 hrs/day or more television? 0.84 How many does this correspond to in the sample? 130 What number of television hours per day corresponds to a Z +1. -0.825 What is the percentage of people who watch between 1 and 6 hours of television per day? Please round to a whole number 1.26
Answer:
a)2.09
b) 0.2
c) 130 correspondents
d) 5.38 hours per day
e) 69%
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for calculating a z-score is is z = (x-μ)/σ,
where
x is the raw score,
μ is the population mean,
σ is the population standard deviation.
Mean = average of 2.98 hrs/day, Standard deviation = 2.4 hours.
a) What is the Z score for a person who watches more than 8 hrs/day.
z = (x-μ)/σ
= 8 - 2.98/2.4
= 2.09167
≈ 2.09
b) What proportion of people watch 5 hrs/day or more television?
z = (x-μ)/σ
= 5 - 2.98/2.4
= 0.84167
P-value from Z-Table:
P(x<5) = 0.80001
The proportion that watches 5 hrs/day or more television?
P(x>5) = 1 - P(x<5) = 0.19999
≈ 0.2
c) How many does this correspond to in the sample?
From the question we are told:
650 GSS respondents in 2006 watched television for an average of 2.98 hrs/day, with a standard deviation of 2.4 hours.
Hence, the proportion that corresponds to people who watch 5 hrs/day or more television form the samples is
0.2 × 650
= 130 correspondents.
d) What number of television hours per day corresponds to a Z +1.
z = (x-μ)/σ
+1 = x - 2.98/2.4
Cross Multiply
1 × 2.4 = x - 2.98
2.4 = x - 2.98
x = 2.4 + 2.98
x = 5.38 hours per day
e) What is the percentage of people who watch between 1 and 6 hours of television per day?
Step 1
For 1 hour
z = (x-μ)/σ
= 1 - 2.98/2.4
= -0.825
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x = 1) = 0.20469
Step 2
For 6 hours
z = (x-μ)/σ
= 6 - 2.98/2.4
= 1.25833
Probability value from Z-Table:
P(x = 6) = 0.89586
The percentage of people who watch between 1 and 6 hours of television per day is
P(x = 6) - P(x = 1)
= 0.89586 - 0.20469
= 0.69117
Converting to percentage =
0.69117 × 100
= 69.117 %
Approximately = 69%

Now, looking at this, we have fraction terms. Thus, the first step will be to find a way to clear the denominators in order to make every term a whole number.
The denominators we have are: 2 and 5.
So to clear the denominator we'll multiply each term by 10 which is a product of 2 and 5.
Looking at the options, the correct answer is option B: Robin is correct because both sides of the equation can first be multiplied by 10

Assuming that 6 in 10 automobile accidents are due mainly to a speed violation, find the probability that among 8 automobile accidents, 6 will be due mainly to a speed violation (a) by using the formula for the binomial distribution; (b) by using Table A.1.
Answer:
A ) 0.2090 B) .2090
Step-by-step explanation:
∙Let random variable XX represent the number of accidents due to speed violation among 8 automobile accidents.
Lets consider it success if an accident is due to speed violation.
-Probability of a success in each trial is p = 6/10 = 0.6
-Because the trials are independent, XX has a binomial distribution with parameters n = 8n=8 and p = 0.60p=0.60
The probability that among 8 automobile accidents, 6 will be due mainly to a speed violation will be 0.75.
What is probability?It is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes, in other words, the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.
It is given that, the probability that among 8 automobile accidents, 6 will be due mainly to a speed violation.
In everyday life, risk modeling and assessment involve the use of probability theory. Actuarial science is used by the insurance sector and markets to set pricing and decide which securities to trade. Environmental regulation, entitlement analysis, and financial regulation are all areas where governments use probabilistic methods.
Probability =favorable outcome/ total outcome
Probability = 6/8
Probability =0.75
Thus, the probability that among 8 automobile accidents, 6 will be due mainly to a speed violation will be 0.75.

The rate at which the family eats apples on a daily basis is an illustration of a linear model
The linear model of the scenario is a(t) = -9t + 128
How to determine the linear modelLinear models are used to illustrate scenarios with constant rates
A linear model is represented as:
a(t) = mt + b
Where:
m represents the rate (i.e. m = -9)b represents the initial value (i.e. b = 128)t represents the number of days, and a(t) represents the remaining appleSubstitute known values in the above equation
a(t) = -9t + 128

In a sample of 100 steel wires the average breaking strength is 50 kN, with a standard deviation of 2 kN. a. Find a 95% confidence interval for the mean breaking strength of this type of wire. b. Find a 99% confidence interval for the mean breaking strength of this type of wire. c. An engineer claims that the mean breaking strength is between 49.7 kN and 50.3 kN. With what level of confidence can this statement be made? d. How many wires must be sampled so that a 95% confidence interval specifies the mean breaking strength to within ±0.3 kN? e. How many wires must be sampled so that a 99% confidence interval specifies the mean breaking strength to within ±0.3 kN?
Answer:
.
Step-by-step explanation:
1.
Alpha = 0.05. alpha/2 = 0.025
Under the z table
Z 0.025 = 1.96
50+-1.96(2/√100)
= 50+-0.39
50+0.39 = 50.39
50-0.39 = 49.61
2.
At 99%
Alpha = 0.01
Alpha/2 = 0.005
In z table
= 2.58
50+-(2.58)(2√100)
= 50 +- 0.52
= 50+0.52 = 50.52
50 - 52 = 49.48
Please check attachment for answers 3 to 5. The test editor did not work properly. It kept flagging some of my typed content.
Using the z-distribution, it is found that:
a) The 95% confidence interval for the mean breaking strength of this type of wire, in kN, is (49.61, 50.39).
b) The 99% confidence interval for the mean breaking strength of this type of wire, in kN, is (49.49, 50.52).
c) The confidence level is of 86.64%.
d) 171 wires must be sampled.
e) 295 wires must be sampled.
We are given the standard deviation for the population, which is why the z-distribution is used to solve this question.
The information given is:
Sample mean of [tex]\overline{x} = 50[/tex]. Population standard deviation of [tex]\sigma = 2[/tex]. Sample size of [tex]n = 100[/tex].The confidence interval is:
[tex]\overline{x} \pm z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
The margin of error is of:
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
Item a:
The first step is finding the critical value, which is z with a p-value of [tex]\frac{1 + \alpha}{2}[/tex], in which [tex]\alpha[/tex] is the confidence level.
In this problem, [tex]\alpha = 0.95[/tex], thus, z with a p-value of [tex]\frac{1 + 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex], which means that it is z = 1.96.
Hence, the interval is:
[tex]\overline{x} - z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = 50 - 1.96\frac{2}{\sqrt{100}} = 49.61[/tex]
[tex]\overline{x} + z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = 50 + 1.96\frac{2}{\sqrt{100}} = 50.39[/tex]
The 95% confidence interval for the mean breaking strength of this type of wire, in kN, is (49.61, 50.39).
Item b:
[tex]\alpha = 0.99[/tex], thus, z with a p-value of [tex]\frac{1 + 0.99}{2} = 0.995[/tex], which means that it is z = 2.575.
[tex]\overline{x} - z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = 50 - 2.575\frac{2}{\sqrt{100}} = 49.49[/tex]
[tex]\overline{x} + z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = 50 + 2.575\frac{2}{\sqrt{100}} = 50.52[/tex]
The 99% confidence interval for the mean breaking strength of this type of wire, in kN, is (49.49, 50.52).
Item c:
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = \frac{50.3 - 49.7}{2} = 0.3[/tex]
Hence:
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.3 = z\frac{2}{\sqrt{100}}[/tex]
[tex]0.2z = 0.3[/tex]
[tex]z = 1.5[/tex]
z = 1.5 has a p-value of 0.9332, hence:
[tex]\frac{1 + \alpha}{2} = 0.9332[/tex]
[tex]1 + \alpha = 2(0.9332)[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 0.8664[/tex]
The confidence level is of 86.64%.
Item d:
This is n for which M = 0.3, with z = 1.96, hence:
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.3 = 1.96\frac{2}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.3\sqrt{n} = 1.96(2)[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96(2)}{0.3}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{1.96(2)}{0.3}\right)^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 170.7[/tex]
Rounding up, 171 wires must be sampled.
Item e:
Now z = 2.575, hence:
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = \left(\frac{2.575(2)}{0.3}\right)^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 294.7[/tex]
Rounding up, 295 wires must be sampled.

Simplify this complex fraction 2/5 divided by 5/8
Answer:
1 19/21
Step-by-step explanation:
brainliest pls :D
Answer:
0.64
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's think about a few simple examples. Once you understand them, you
will be able to put them together to make harder problems.
Ex: What is 2 divided by 1/5? Here are 2 blocks:
+---------+---------+
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
+---------+---------+
Here is 1/5 of a block (the shaded part):
+---------+
|XXXXXXXXX|
+.........+
| |
+.........+
| |
+.........+
| |
+.........+
| |
+---------+
To divide 2 by 1/5, we divide 2 blocks into pieces the size of the 1/5
block.
+---------+---------+
| | |
+.........+.........+
| | |
+.........+.........+
| | |
+.........+.........+
| | |
+.........+.........+
| | |
+---------+---------+
There are 10 pieces this size in the 2 blocks. In other words,
2 divided by 1/5 = 10
That's the same as
2 x 5 = 10
Do you see why? To make 1/5 size blocks, we had to make each whole
block into 5 pieces. In other words, we multiplied the number of
pieces by 5.
Next problem:
2 divided by 2/5 = ?
Here is 2/5 of a block (the shaded part):
+---------+
|XXXXXXXXX|
+.........+
|XXXXXXXXX|
+.........+
| |
+.........+
| |
+.........+
| |
+---------+
Let's divide the 2 blocks into pieces this size.
+---------+---------+
| | |
+ + +
| | |
+.........+.........+
| | |
+ + +
| | |
+.........+.........+
| |
+---------+---------+
The bottom block is a different shape, but it's the same size, because
it's made of 2 1/5-size pieces. Since the pieces we want are twice as
big, there are only 1/2 as many of them. The answer is
2 divided by 2/5 = 10/2 = 5
This is the same as
2 x 5/2 = 5
Do you see how the two equations are related? You take the fraction,
2/5, and "turn it upside down" (in math words, we say "invert the
fraction," or "take its reciprocal"). Then replace the division sign
by a multiplication sign.
Now we can tackle harder problems. The same method always works, even
if the answer isn't a whole number as in the simple examples. For
instance,
5 divided by 3/8 = ?
Ex: Invert the fraction 3/8; you get 8/3. Then multiply by this fraction:
5 x 8/3 = 40/3 = 13 1/3
We can even replace the whole number in the problem with a fraction,
like this:
5/7 divided by 3/8 = ?
5/7 x 8/3 = ?
5 8 40 19
--- x --- = ---- = 1 ----
7 3 21 21
If you are comfortable with multiplying fractions, then you will have
no trouble dividing fractions. Just remember: invert the fraction you
are dividing by (the divisor), and multiply instead of dividing. Hope this helps! :)
