A certain dataset of systolic blood pressure measurements has a mean of 80 and a standard deviation of 3. Assuming the distribution is bell-shaped and we randomly select a measurement:
a) What percentage of measurements are between 71 and 89?
b) What is the probability a person's blood systolic pressure measures more than 89?
c) What is the probability a person's blood systolic pressure being at most 75?
d) We should expect 15% of patients have a blood pressure below what measurement?
e) Would it be unusual for 3 patients to have a mean blood pressure measurement of more than 84? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = systolic blood pressure measurements.

It is provided that, [tex]X\sim N(\mu=80,\sigma^{2}=3^{2})[/tex].

(a)

Compute the percentage of measurements that are between 71 and 89 as follows:

[tex]P(71<X<89)=P(\frac{71-80}{3}<\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{89-80}{3})[/tex]

                        [tex]=P(-3<Z<3)\\=P(Z<3)-P(Z<-3)\\=0.99865-0.00135\\=0.9973[/tex]

The percentage is, 0.9973 × 100 = 99.73%.

Thus, the percentage of measurements that are between 71 and 89 is 99.73%.

(b)

Compute the probability that a person's blood systolic pressure measures more than 89 as follows:

[tex]P(X>89)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}>\frac{89-80}{3})[/tex]

                [tex]=P(Z>3)\\=1-P(Z<3)\\=1-0.99865\\=0.00135\\\approx 0.0014[/tex]

Thus, the probability that a person's blood systolic pressure measures more than 89 is 0.0014.

(c)

Compute the probability that a person's blood systolic pressure being at most 75 as follows:

Apply continuity correction:

[tex]P(X\leq 75)=P(X<75-0.5)[/tex]

                [tex]=P(X<74.5)\\\\=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{74.5-80}{3})\\\\=P(Z<-1.83)\\\\=0.03362\\\\\approx 0.034[/tex]

Thus, the probability that a person's blood systolic pressure being at most 75 is 0.034.

(d)

Let x be the blood pressure required.

Then,

P (X < x) = 0.15

⇒ P (Z < z) = 0.15

z = -1.04

Compute the value of x as follows:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\-1.04=\frac{x-80}{3}\\\\x=80-(1.04\times3)\\\\x=76.88\\\\x\approx 76.9[/tex]

Thus, the 15% of patients are expected to have a blood pressure below 76.9.

(e)

A z-score more than 2 or less than -2 are considered as unusual.

Compute the z score for [tex]\bar x[/tex] as follows:

[tex]z=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

  [tex]=\frac{84-80}{3/\sqrt{3}}\\\\=2.31[/tex]

The z-score for the mean blood pressure measurement of 3 patients is more than 2.

Thus, it would be unusual.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

Continuously compounding with an annual interest rate of 4.5% means multiplying the initial investment by (for t tears).

[tex]\displaystyle e^{(1+4.5\%)t}=e^{\left( 1.045\cdot t \right) }[/tex]

So we need to find t so that:

find the three consecutive 0dd integers such that two is less than 15 than 5 times the firs​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Find three consecutive odd integers such that the sum of the last two is 15 less than 5 times the first.

let the consecutive odd integers are :- x , x + 2 and x + 4.

According to question :-

the sum of the last two is 15 less than 5 times the first.

It means that

the sum of ( x + 2 ) and ( x + 4 ) is 15 less than 5 times the x .

( x + 2 ) + ( x + 4 ) = 5x - 15

x + 2 + x + 4 = 5x - 15

2x + 6 = 5x - 15

6 + 15 = 5x + 2x

21 = 7x

or ;

7x = 21

x = 21 / 7

x = 3

So, the consecutive odd numbers are :-

x = 3

x + 2 = 3 + 2 = 5

x + 4 = 3 + 4 = 7

=> 3 , 5 and 7

Answer:

[tex]y=2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we can use the point-slope formula as we are given points on the line. This is the format:

[tex]y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1} )[/tex]

The first step is to find the slope by substituting in two of the points. Let's try using (7,2) and (3,2):

[tex]2-2=m(7-3)\\0=4m\\m=0[/tex]

So now we have found that our slope is 0 meaning it is a flat line (shown by the unchanging y values through all three points).

The form for line equations is:

[tex]y=mx+c[/tex]

However, since our m=0, it is simplified to this:

[tex]y=c[/tex]

The y-value for all the points is 2, meaning c=2 (as it is also the y-intercept)

Therefore our final equation is:

[tex]y=2[/tex]

9x³ + 27x²

Step-by-step explanation:

What the question is asking is to multiply f(x) and g(x) together:

Step 1: Write out expression

(fg)(x) = 3x²(3x + 9)

Step 2: Distribute

(fg)(x) = 9x³ + 27x²

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{Option \ 3 : (fg)(x) = 9x^3+27x^2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]f(x) = 3x+9\\g(x) = 3x^2[/tex]

Multiplying both

[tex](fg)(x) = (3x+9)(3x^2)\\(fg)(x) = 9x^3+27x^2[/tex]

f(x)=3x2+10x-25 g(x)=9x2-25 Find (f/g)(x).

Answers

Answer:

[tex](f/g)(x) = \frac{x + 5}{3x + 5} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 3x² + 10x - 25

g(x) = 9x² - 25

To find (f/g)(x) divide f(x) by g(x)

That's

[tex](f/g)(x) = \frac{3 {x}^{2} + 10x - 25 }{9 {x}^{2} - 25 } [/tex]

Factorize both the numerator and the denominator

For the numerator

3x² + 10x - 25

3x² + 15x - 5x - 25

3x ( x + 5) - 5( x + 5)

(3x - 5 ) ( x + 5)

For the denominator

9x² - 25

(3x)² - 5²

Using the formula

a² - b² = ( a + b)(a - b)

(3x)² - 5² = (3x + 5)(3x - 5)

So we have

[tex](f/g)(x) = \frac{(3x - 5)(x + 5)}{(3x + 5)(3x - 5)} [/tex]

Simplify

We have the final answer as

[tex](f/g)(x) = \frac{x + 5}{3x + 5} [/tex]

1. Ewa has 20 balls of four colors: yellow, green, blue, and black. 17 of them are not green, 5 are black, and 12 are not yellow. How many blue balls does Ewa have? (Use Gaussian elimination method).

Answers

Answer:

In a bag of balls, 1/4th are green, 1/8th are blue, 1/12th are yellow and the remaining 26 are white. How many balls are blue?

There are 4 colours of balls - green, blue, yellow and white.

Add (1/4)+(1/8)+(1/12) = (6/24)+(3/24)+(2/24) = 11/24 so the balance or (24–11)/24 = 13/24 = 26 white. Hence the total number of balls are 2*24 = 48.

Of the 48 balls, green are (1/4)*48 = 12, blue are (1/8)*48 = 6, yellow are (1/12)*48 = 4 and the rest, white are 26.

Check: Total number of balls = 12+6+4+26 = 48

If you are offered one slice from a round pizza (in other words, a sector of a circle) and the slice must have a perimeter of 28 inches, what diameter pizza will reward you with the largest slice

Answers

Answer:

The diameter that will reward with the largest pizza is 14 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a sector of a circle is:

P = 2r + l

l = rθ

P = 2r + rθ

P=28 inches

28=2r + rθ

28-2r=rθ

θ=(28-2r/r)

=(2*14 - 2*r)/r

=2(14-r)/r

Area of the sector of the circle is:

A = r²/2 * θ

A = r²/2 * 2(14 - r)/r

A = r² * (14 - r)/r

A = r(14 - r)

A = 14r - r²

For the maximum area:

A = 14r - r²

A' = 14 - 2r

Set A' = 0

14 - 2r = 0

14= 2r

r = 7 in

The diameter (D) of the circle is twice of the radius:

D = 2r = 2 * 7= 14 in

The maximum area is:

A = 14r - r²

r = 7 in

A = 14 * 7 - 7²

A = 98 - 49

A = 49 in²

A right triangle has vertices (−7,9),(3,9),(−7,−15). Find the perimeter of the triangle. please help. a simple formula will due. and an explanation

Answers

Answer:

  60

Step-by-step explanation:

If the sides of the triangle have lengths a, b, c, the perimeter is their sum:

  P = a + b + c

Any of the side lengths can be found using the distance formula. However, since two of the sides are aligned with the axes, their lengths are easily found by subtracting coordinates.

If the points are labeled A, B, C, in order, then the two right-angle sides are ...

  c = AB = 3 -(-7) = 10

  b = AC = 9 -(-15) = 24

The Pythagorean theorem tells you that you can find the third side from the relation ...

  a² = b² +c²

  a² = 10² +24² = 676

  a = √676 = 26

Now, we can use these values in the formula for the perimeter:

  P = a + b + c = 26 + 24 + 10

  P = 60

The perimeter of the triangle is 60 units.

Given that −4i is a zero, factor the following polynomial function completely. Use the Conjugate Roots Theorem, if applicable. f(x)=x4−2x3+x2−32x−240

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\large \boxed{\sf \bf \ \ f(x)=(x-4i)(x+4i)(x+3)(x-5) \ \ }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, the Conjugate Roots Theorem states that if a complex number is a zero of real polynomial its conjugate is a zero too. It means that (x-4i)(x+4i) are factors of f(x).

[tex]\text{Meaning that } (x-4i)(x+4i) =x^2-(4i)^2=x^2+16 \text{ is a factor of f(x).}[/tex]

The coefficient of the leading term is 1 and the constant term is -240 = 16 * (-15), so we a re looking for a real number such that.

[tex]f(x)=x^4-2x^3+x^2-32x-240\\\\ =(x^2+16)(x^2+ax-15)\\\\ =x^4+ax^3-15x^2+16x^2+16ax-240[/tex]

We identify the coefficients for the like terms, it comes

a = -2 and 16a = -32 (which is equivalent). So, we can write in [tex]\mathbb{R}[/tex].

[tex]\\f(x)=(x^2+16)(x^2-2x-15)[/tex]

The sum of the zeroes is 2=5-3 and their product is -15=-3*5, so we can factorise by (x-5)(x+3), which gives.

[tex]f(x)=(x^2+16)(x^2-2x-15)\\\\=(x^2+16)(x^2+3x-5x-15)\\\\=(x^2+16)(x(x+3)-5(x+3))\\\\=\boxed{(x^2+16)(x+3)(x-5)}[/tex]

And we can write in [tex]\mathbb{C}[/tex]

[tex]f(x)=\boxed{(x-4i)(x+4i)(x+3)(x-5)}[/tex]
