The distribution of IQ scores for students at a large university are known to be approximately normally distributed with σ = 15. One student claims that the mean IQ for all students at the university is 100. A. Assuming that the student’s claim is true (that µ = 100), what is the probability of obtaining a simple random sample of 20 students whose mean IQ score is greater than 108. B. Suppose that you actually did collect a simple random sample of 20 students and found their mean IQ score was greater than 108. Would this give you good evidence to suggest that the mean IQ for all students at the school is greater than 100? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A

The probability of obtaining a simple random sample of 20 students whose mean IQ score is greater than 108 is

    [tex]P(\= X > 108) = 0.0084242[/tex]

B

Comparing the p-value obtained with a low level of significance  (say ∝= 0.01 ) we see that the p-value  is  less than ∝ which implies that the null hypothesis is  rejected hence  we can state that there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean IQ for all students at the school is greater than 100

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 15[/tex]

  The population mean is  [tex]\mu = 100[/tex]

  The sample size n  =  20

Generally the standard deviation of the sample mean (standard error ) is mathematically represented as

      [tex]\sigma_{\= x} = \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]\sigma_{\= x} = \frac{15 }{\sqrt{20} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]\sigma_{\= x} = 3.35[/tex]

Generally the probability of obtaining a simple random sample of 20 students whose mean IQ score is greater than 108 is mathematically represented as

      [tex]P(\= X > 108) = P(\frac{\=X - \mu}{\sigma_{\= x} } > \frac{108 - 100}{3.35} )[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(\= X > 108) = P(Z > \frac{108 - 100}{3.35} )[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(\= X > 108) = P(Z > \frac{108 - 100}{3.35} )[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(\= X > 108) = P(Z >2.39 )[/tex]

From the z-table  

      [tex]P(z > 2.39) = 0.0084242[/tex]

So

      [tex]P(\= X > 108) = 0.0084242[/tex]

The null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o : \mu = 100[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : \mu > 100[/tex]

The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 108[/tex]

Generally the test statistics is  =  2.39

  Generally the p-value is  equal  to 0.0084242

Now comparing the  p-value with a low level of significance  (say ∝= 0.01 ) we see that the p-value  is  less than ∝ which implies that the null hypothesis is  rejected  and we can conclude that there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean IQ for all students at the school is greater than 100

A test has been developed to detect a particular type of arthritis in individuals over 50 years old. From a national survey it is known that approximately 10% of the individuals in this age group suffer from this form of arthritis. The proposed test was given to individuals with confirmed arthritics disease, and a correct test result was obtained in 85% of the cases. When the test was administered to individuals of the same age group who were known to be free of the disease, 4% were reported to have the disease. What is the probability that an individual has this disease given that the test indicates its presence

Answers

Answer:

The probability that an individual has this disease given that the test indicates its presence is 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event which indicates Having disease

Let B be the event in which test indicates that disease presence

Now we are given that 10% of the individuals in this age group suffer from this form of arthritis

So, P(A)=0.1

We are also given that the proposed test was given to individuals with confirmed arthritics disease, and a correct test result was obtained in 85% of the cases.

P(B|A)=0.85

Now we are given that. When the test was administered to individuals of the same age group who were known to be free of the disease, 4% were reported to have the disease

So,P(B|A')=0.04

We are supposed to find  the probability that an individual has this disease given that the test indicates its presence i.e. P(A|B)

So we will use Bayes theorem

[tex]P(A|B)=\frac{P(B|A) P(A)}{\sum P(B|A) P(A)}[/tex]

[tex]P(A|B)=\frac{0.85 \times 0.1}{0.85 \times 0.1+0.85 \times 0.9}=0.1[/tex]

Hence the probability that an individual has this disease given that the test indicates its presence is 0.1

Answers

Answer:

See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 3 equations.

3x + 8

5x - 20

and

5x + 4y

First lets solve for x using the first two

3x + 8 = 5x -20

Move the variables to one side

3x + 8 = 5x -20

-3x        -3x

8 = 2x -20

+20     +20

28 =2x

28/2 =2x /2

14 = x

Now we have x = 14

Lets plug this into the second equation to solve for the angle

3(14) + 8

42 + 8 = 50

5(14) - 20

70 - 20 =50

Now, lets plug the x and the angle into the third equation to find y

5 (14) +4y = 50

70 + 4y = 50

-70           -70

4y = -20

4y/4 = -20/4

y = -5

So now we have:

x = 14

y = -5

and the angle = 50

plot the x intercepts,maxima and minima of y=cos(x) from 0 to 2pi

Answers

Answer:

Figure of the function is included below as attachment.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]y = \cos x[/tex]As first step we have to find x intercepts, maxima and minima from 0 to 2π, which are needed to plot given function. Cosine is a trigonometric function bounded between -1 and 1 with a periodicity of 2π.

x-Intercepts

x-intercepts are those points of the function such that [tex]y = 0[/tex]. That is:

[tex]\cos x = 0[/tex]

In this case, there is a periodicity of π for [tex]y = 0[/tex]. The x-intercepts are in the following set:

[tex]S = \{\forall\,x\in\mathbb{R}|x=0.5\pi\pm\pi\cdot i,i\in\mathbb{N}_{O} \}[/tex]

Maxima

Maxima are those points of the function such that [tex]y = 1[/tex]. That is:

[tex]\cos x = 1[/tex]

In this case, there is a periodicity of 2π for [tex]y = 1[/tex]. Maxima are in the following set:

[tex]S = \{\forall\,x\in\mathbb{R}|x=0\pm2\pi\cdot i,i\in\mathbb{N}_{O} \}[/tex]

Minima

Minima are those points of the function such that [tex]y = -1[/tex]. That is:

[tex]\cos x = -1[/tex]

In this case, there is a periodicity of 2π for [tex]y = -1[/tex]. Minima are in the following set:

[tex]S = \{\forall\,x\in\mathbb{R}|x=\pi\pm2\pi\cdot i,i\in\mathbb{N}_{O} \}[/tex]

Lastly, we proceed to plot the function as well as its x-intercepts, maxima and minima with the help of a plotting tool.

Step-by-step explanation:

What is Multiplication?

To multiply means to add a number to itself a particular number of times. Multiplication can be viewed as a process of repeated addition.

Given that;

Grandma  pays upfront for you to go on an overnight trip with the school, which costs $340.

And, You make a deal that you’ll give her $25 per month until you pay it all back.

Now,

Let the number of months to pay Granma = x

Then, we can formulate;

$25x = $340

x = 13.6

After rounding,

x = 14

So, We pay 14 months to grandma;

Hence, The cost to pay grandma in 14 months = 14 x $25

                                                                        = $350

Therefore, You pay $350 to Grandma.

Use the labled point to write a point slope form for the line

Answers

Answer:

The point-slope form of the line is y - 3 = -2(x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation of a line is

y - y1 = m(x - x1), where

(x1, y1) is a point on the linem is the slope of the line

The rule of the slope is [tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex] , where

(x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are two points on the line.

Let us use these rules to solve the question

∵ (-2, 3) and (0, -1) are two points on the line

x1 = -2 and y1 = 3

∴ x2 = 0 and y2 = -1

→ Substitute them in the rule of the slope to find it

∵ m = [tex]\frac{-1-3}{0--2}=\frac{-4}{0+2}=\frac{-4}{2}=-2[/tex]

m = -2

→ Substitute the value of m and point (-2, 3) in the form of the

   equation above

∵ m = -2 and (x1, y1) = (-2, 3)

∴ y - 3 = -2(x - -2)

→ Remember (-)(-) = (+)

∴ y - 3 = -2(x + 2)

The point-slope form of the line is y - 3 = -2(x + 2)

If a seed is planted, it has a 95% chance of growing into a healthy plant. If 10 seeds are planted, what is the probability that exactly 2 don't grow?

Answers

Answer:

The probability that exactly 2 don't grow is 0.075 or 7.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial Distribution

Let's consider a random experience with only two possible outcomes. Call p to the probability that the event has a successful outcome and q to the unsuccessful outcome.

It's clear that p+q=1, or q=1-p.

Now repeat the random experience n times. We want to calculate the probability of getting x successful outcomes. This can be done with the following formula:

[tex]\displaystyle P_{x} = {n \choose x} p^{x} q^{n-x}[/tex]

Where  

[tex]\displaystyle {n \choose x}[/tex]

Is the number of combinations:

[tex]\displaystyle {n \choose x} =_nC_x=\frac{n !}{x ! (n-x) !}[/tex]

For the problem to solve, each seed has a p=0.95 probability of growing into a healthy plant. The value of q=1-0.95=0.05.

The experience is repeated n=10 times and we want to estimate the probability that 2 of them don't grow. Note this last data is not directly the value of x because it's not related to success but with no success. The value of x is x=10-2=8. That means, 8 out of 10 seeds grow.

Apply the formula:

[tex]\displaystyle P_{8} = {10 \choose 8} \cdot 0.95^{8} \cdot 0.05^{10-8}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle P_{8} = 45\cdot 0.95^{8} 0.05^{2}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle P_{8} = 0.075[/tex]

The probability that exactly 2 don't grow is 0.075 or 7.5%

Rectangle a measures 9 inches by 3 inches. Rectangle b is a scaled copy of rectangle a .select a set of measurement pairs that could be the dimensions of of rectangle b

Answers

Answer:

Dimensions of Rectangle B will be 9x inches by 3x inches where x is a scaling factor.

Step-by-step explanation:

Scaled Copy: It means that the rectangle A is related to rectangle B by some scaling (multiplying) factor x.

As we are given Dimensions of rectangle A =  9 inches by 3 inches

Then for any scaling factor x the dimensions of rectangle B will be:

Dimensions of Rectangle B = x * ( Dimensions of rectangle A)

Dimension of rectangle B = x * (9 inches by 3 inches)

Dimensions of rectangle B = 9x inches by 3x inches

For more understanding let we assume that rectangle B is scaled copy of rectangle A by scaling factor x=3; then we will have the dimensions of rectangle B as under:

For scaling factor (x) = 3;

Dimensions of Rectangle B = x * ( Dimensions of rectangle A)

Dimensions of rectangle B = 3 (9 inches by 3 inches)

Dimensions of rectangle B = 27 inches by 9 inches

On the other hand for scaling factor x=0.75, the dimensions of rectangle B will become as under;

Dimensions of Rectangle B = x * ( Dimensions of rectangle A)

Dimensions of rectangle B = 0.75 (9 inches by 3 inches)

Dimensions of rectangle B = 6.75 inches by 2.25 inches
