A manufacturer knows that their items have a normally distributed length, with a mean of 8.8 inches, and standard deviation of 0.7 inches.
If one item is chosen at random, what is the probability that it is less than 8.2 inches long?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.1949

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a normal distribution with;

Mean(m) = 8.8 inches

Standard deviation (sd) = 0.7 inches

If one item is chosen at random, what is the probability that it is less than 8.2 inches long?

Find the Z-score :

x = 8.2 inches

Z = (x - m) / sd

Zscore = (8.2 - 8.8) / 0.7

Zscore = - 0.6 / 0.7

Zscore = - 0.857 = - 0.86

P(Z < - 0.86) :

From z distribution table :

P(Z < - 0.86) = 0.1949

If one item is chosen at random, there is a probability of 0.1949 that it will be less than 8.2 inches long.

what is the probability that a randomly selected driver fatality who was female was 55 to 69 years old

Answers

Answer:

0.1354

Step-by-step explanation:

Relevant data provided as per the requirement is shown below:-

Female probability of age between 55 to 69 = 2058

Male probability of age between 55 to 69 = 4571

According to the given situation, the calculation of probability is shown below:-

[tex]= \frac{Female\ from\ 55\ to\ 69 }{Total\ female}[/tex]

where,

Total female is

= 143 + 2333 + 4027 + 5178 + 2058 + 1459

= 15,198

And, the female is 2058

So, the probability is

[tex]= \frac{2058}{15,198}[/tex]

= 0.1354

Therefore for computing the probability of female that lies between 55 to 69 we simply applied the above formula.

Please help me solve this 166=-w+66

Answers

Answer:

w = -100

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write out equation

166 = -w + 66

Step 2: Subtract 66 on both sides

100 = -w

Step 3: Divide both sides by -1

w = -100

Answer:

w=-100

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

166= -w +66

To solve for x, we must get x by itself on one side of the equation.

66 is being added to -w. The inverse of addition is subtraction. Subtract 66 from both sides of the equation.

166-66= -w+66-66

166-66= -w

100= -w

-1 and w are being multiplied. The invers of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the equation by -1.

100/-1= -w/-1

100/-1=w

-100=w

Let's check our solution. Plug -100 in for w.

166= -w+66

166= -(-100)+66

166=100+66

166=166

The statement above is true, so we know our solution is correct.

The solution to 166= -w+66 is w= -100

Answers

Answer:

1

  The  correct option is  C

2

 The  correct option is C

3

The  correct option is A

4

The  correct option is B

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

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

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

     The  sample size is  [tex]n = 36[/tex]

     The  sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 105.1[/tex]

Generally

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

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

Given that the null hypothesis is  true then the  distribution of sample means  [tex]\mu_{\= x }[/tex], from a sample size of 36 is  mathematically represented as

        [tex]\mu_{\= x } = \mu[/tex]

=>     [tex]\mu_{\= x } = 100[/tex]

According to the Central Limit Theorem the test stated in the question is  approximately normally distributed if the sample size is sufficiently large[tex](n > 30 )[/tex] so given that the sample size is  large  n =  36

Then the test is normally distributed and hence the standard deviation is 15

Generally the standard error of mean is mathematically represented as

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

=>  [tex]\sigma_{\= x } = \frac{15}{\sqrt{36} }[/tex]

=>  [tex]\sigma_{\= x } = 2.5[/tex]

Generally  the approximate probability of observing a sample mean of 105.1 or more is mathematically represented as

        [tex]P( \= X \ge 105.1 ) =1 - P(\= X < 105.1) = 1- P(\frac{\= X - \mu }{\sigma_{\= x }} <\frac{105.1 - 100}{2.5} )[/tex]

=>    [tex]P( \= X \ge 105.1 ) =1 - P(\= X < 105.1) = 1- P(Z<2.04 )[/tex]

From the z-table (reference calculator dot net )

             [tex]P(Z<2.04 ) = 0.97932[/tex]

So

  [tex]P( \= X \ge 105.1 )= 1 - P(\= X < 105.1) = 1- 0.97932[/tex]

 [tex]P( \= X \ge 105.1 ) =0.02[/tex]

A stock price S is governed where z is a standardized Wiener process. Find the process that governs G(t)

Answers

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A stock price S is governed by dS = aSdt + bSdz

where z is a standardized Wiener process. Find the process that governs G(t) = S^1/2(t)

Answer:

G = S^1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving the Equation

dS = aSdt + bSdz

First we Take S common from Right hand Side

dS = S(a dt + b dz)

Then we also take S Left Hand Side(LHS) from RHS

dS/S = a dt + b dz

So d = a dt + b dz

now we Take d Common from RHS

d = d(a t + b z)

So

d/d = a t + b z

1 = a t + b z

So, t = (1-b z) / a

Now  substitute value of t in equation G(t) = S^1/2(t)

we have

G{(1- b z)/a} = S^1/2 {(1- b z)/a}

(1- b z)/a) from both sides cancels out each other

So we have  G = S^1/2

Simplify:

4x - 12 = 8x + 4

Subtract 4x from both sides:

4x - 4x - 12 = 8x - 4x + 4

-12 = 4x + 4

Subtract 4 from both sides:

Step-by-step explanation:

So he bought 3 packages of pens.

And each package has 4 blue and 2 black.

Thus, the equation that can be used to find the total number of pens p is:

[tex]3\times(4+2)=p[/tex]

The (4+2) represents the total number of pens in 1 package. And the 3 represents the total number in 3 packages.

Further notes:

The total number of pens would be 18.

Answer:

3 times (4+2)=p

Step-by-step explanation

this is the answer because it gives us that key word and the key word is each and total and when you solve it the answer would be 18 because always use the parentheses  first then add 4+2 and that equals 6 and times 6 with the 3 and that gives 18

Solve the problem. A variable x has the possible observations shown below. Possible observations of x: -3 -1 0 1 1 2 4 4 5 Find the z-score corresponding to an observed value of x of 2.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]z = 0.228[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x: -3 -1 0 1 1 2 4 4 5

n = 9

Required

Determine the z-score x = 2

z score is calculated by

[tex]z = \frac{x - Mean}{SD}[/tex]

First, we need to calculate the mean

[tex]Mean = \frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]

Mean = \frac{-3- 1 + 0 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 4 + 4 +5}{n}

[tex]Mean = \frac{13}{9}[/tex]

[tex]Mean = 1.44[/tex]

Next is to calculate the standard deviation

[tex]SD = \frac{\sum (x_i - Mean)^2}{n}[/tex]

[tex]SD =\sqrt{ \frac{(-3-1.44)^2+(-1-1.44)^2+(0-1.44)^2+(1-1.44)^2+(1-1.44)^2+(2-1.44)^2+(4-1.44)^2+(4-1.44)^2+(5-1.44)^2}{9}[/tex][tex]SD =\sqrt{ \frac{(-4.44)^2+(-2.44)^2+(-1.44)^2+(-0.44)^2+(-0.44)^2+(0.56)^2+(2.56)^2+(2.56)^2+(3.56)^2}{9}[/tex]

[tex]SD =\sqrt{ \frac{19.7136+5.9536+2.0736+0.1936+0.1936+0.3136+6.5536+6.5536+12.6736}{9}[/tex]

[tex]SD =\sqrt{ \frac{54.2224}{9}[/tex]

[tex]SD =\sqrt{6.02471111111}[/tex]

[tex]SD = 2.455[/tex]

Substitute these values in

[tex]z = \frac{x - Mean}{SD}[/tex]

Where x = 2

[tex]z = \frac{2 - 1.44}{2.455}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{0.56}{2.455}[/tex]

[tex]z = 0.228[/tex]

Hence, the z score of x = 2 is o.228

The total manufacturing costs added during the period is:

Answers

Answer:

$440,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct material:

= $195,000 - $30,000

= $165,000

Direct labor:

= $150,000 - $40,000

= $110,000

Manufacturing overhead:

150% of direct labor cost.

= $110,000 x 150 ÷ 100

= $16,500,000 ÷ 100

= $165,000

Total manufacturing costs:

= $165,000 + $110,000 + $165,000

= $275,000 + $165,000

= $440,000

The total manufacturing costs added during the period is: $440,000

Answer:

27 trees needs to be in the orchard.

Step-by-step explanation:

amber needs to harvest at least 2293 of plums to cover the cost of running the orchard.

but also wants to donate 280 plums.

each tree produces an average of 83 plums

find: how many plums of trees needed to be in the orchard?

number of trees required = total harvest / number of plums produced per tree

therefore,

number of trees required = 2293 / 83 ≅ 27 trees needs to be in the orchard.

so Amber can donate 280 plums to charity.

Answers

Answer:

Option (B) will be the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement states "five more than the product of seven and a number t is 10."

Split this statement into parts.

1). Product of 7 and a number 't' = 7 × t

2). 5 more than the product of 7 and a number 't' = 7t + 5

3). Five more than the product of 7 and a number t is equal to 10 ⇒ 7t + 5 = 10

Therefore, Option (B) will be the correct option.

Given: m∠A + m∠B = 90° (Definition of Complementary Angles).

Given: m∠B = (5x + 8)°

A) m∠A = 180° + (5x + 8) is your answer choice:

Why it isn't the others:

B) m∠A = 90° - (5x + 8)

You are solving for complementary angles (90° in total when combined), so you subtract the measurement for B (5x + 8) to get A.

C) m∠A = 180° - 2(5x + 8)°

You double the complementary angle to solve for the supplementary. Essentially, just divide this answer by two to get the complementary angles.

D) m∠A = 82 - 5x

I was confused by this one, but essentially they just did one step of the isolating the variable, which was subtracting 8 from both sides. They did not finish isolating the variable however.
