Given the exponential growth function f(x)=87(1.02)^x

What is the initial value of the function? _____

What is the growth factor, or growth rate of the function (as a percent)? _____%

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

87; 2%

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential growth model is defined as :

F(x) = A( 1 + r)^x

Where;

A = Initial amount,

r = rate of increase

x = time

Comparing the exponential growth function with the exponential growth model given;

f(x)=87(1.02)^x

A = 87 = Initial amount

The growth rate of the model expressed as a percentage :

Taking :

(1 + r) = 1.02

1 + r = 1.02

r = 1.02 - 1

r = 0.02

Expressing r as a percentage :

0.02 * 100% = 2%

According to the Federal Communications Commission, 70% of all U.S. households have vcrs. In a random sample of 15 households, what is the probability that fewer than 13 have vcrs?

Answers

Answer:

The probability  is  [tex]P(x < 13) = 0.8732[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  probability of success is    p = 0.70

     The  sample size is  [tex]n = 15[/tex]

Generally the distribution of U.S. households have vcrs follow a binomial distribution given that there are only two outcome (household having vcrs or household not having vcrs )

The probability of failure is mathematically evaluated as

       [tex]q = 1- p[/tex]

substituting values

      [tex]q = 1- 0.70[/tex]

      [tex]q = 0.30[/tex]

The probability that fewer than 13 have vcrs is mathematically represented as

          [tex]P(x < 13) = 1- [P(13) + P(14) + P(15)][/tex]

=>     [tex]P(x < 13) = 1-[( \left 15 } \atop {}} \right. C_{13} *p^{13}* q^{15-13})+ (\left 15 } \atop {}} \right. C_{14} *p^{14}* q^{15-14}) +( \left 15 } \atop {}} \right. C_{15} *p^{15}* q^{15-15}) ][/tex]

 Here  [tex]\left 15 } \atop {}} \right. C_{13}[/tex] means  15 combination 13 and the value is  105 (obtained from calculator)

 Here  [tex]\left 15 } \atop {}} \right. C_{14}[/tex] means  15 combination 14 and the value is  15 (obtained from calculator)

 

 Here  [tex]\left 15 } \atop {}} \right. C_{15}[/tex] means  15 combination 15 and the value is  1 (obtained from calculator)

So

 [tex]P(x < 13) = 1-[(105 *p^{13}* q^{2})+ (15 *p^{14}* q^{1}) +(1*p^{15}* q^{0}) ][/tex]

substituting values      

 [tex]P(x < 13) = 1-[(105 *(0.70)^{13}* (0.30)^{2})+ (15 *(0.70)^{14}* (0.30)^{1}) +(1*(0.70)^{15}* (0.30)^{0}) ][/tex]

 [tex]P(x < 13) = 0.8732[/tex]

A quality control manager is concerned about variability of the net weight of his company’s individual yogurt cups. To check the consistency, he takes a random sample of sixteen 6-ounce yogurt cups and finds the mean of the sampled weights to be 5.85 ounces and the sample standard deviation to be 0.2 ounce.

Requried:
a. Test the hypotheses H0: µ ≥ 6 Ha: µ < 6 at the 5% level of significance. Assume the population of yogurt-cup net weights is approximately normally distributed.
b. Based on the results of the test, will the manager be satisfied that the company is not under-filling its cups?
c. State the decision rule, the test statistic, and the manager’s decision.

Answers

Answer:

a) We reject H₀

b) The manager won´t be satisfied with nominal filling its cup

c) See step-by-step explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal distribution  n <  30, therefore, we should use t - student table

Sample size  n  =  16

degree of freedom  =   df =  n - 1     df = 15

Sample mean    μ  = 5,85 ou

Sample standard deviation  is    s = 0,2 ou

Hypothesis test

Null hypothesis                               H₀              μ   >=  μ₀

Alternative hypothesis                   Hₐ               μ   <   μ₀

CI  = 95 %    then   α = 5 %     α = 0,05     α/2  =  0,025

Then in t-student table we find  t(c) = 1,753

To calculate  t(s)

t(s) =  (   μ   -  μ₀  ) s/√n

t(s)  =   ( 5,85 -  6 ) / 0,2/√16

t(s)  =  -  0,15* 4 / 0,2

t(s)  =  -  3

To compare  t(s) and t(c)

|t(s)| > |t(c)|        3 > 1,753

Then t(s) is in the rejection region. We should reject H₀. Data indicate that at 95 % of CI μ seems to be smaller than 6 ou

b) The manager won´t be satisfied with nominal filling its cup

In a random sample of 380 cars driven at low altitudes, 42 of them exceeded a standard of 10 grams of particulate pollution per gallon of fuel consumed. In an independent random sample of 90 cars driven at high altitudes, 24 of them exceeded the standard. Compute the test statistic for testing if the proportion of high-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard is greater than the proportion of low-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard.

Answers

Answer:

The test statistic for testing if the proportion of high-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard is greater than the proportion of low-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard is 3.234.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in a random sample of 380 cars driven at low altitudes, 42 of them exceeded a standard of 10 grams of particulate pollution per gallon of fuel consumed.

In an independent random sample of 90 cars driven at high altitudes, 24 of them exceeded the standard.

Let [tex]p_1[/tex] = population proportion of cars driven at high altitudes who exceeded a standard of 10 grams.

[tex]p_2[/tex] = population proportion of cars driven at low altitudes who exceeded a standard of 10 grams.

So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]p_1\leq p_2[/tex]      {means that the proportion of high-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard is smaller than or equal to the proportion of low-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard}

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]p_1>p_2[/tex]      {means that the proportion of high-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard is greater than the proportion of low-altitude vehicles exceeding the standard}

The test statistics that will be used here is Two-sample z-test statistics for proportions;

                             T.S.  =  [tex]\frac{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }[/tex]  ~  N(0,1)

where, [tex]\hat p_1[/tex] = sample proportion of cars driven at high altitudes who exceeded a standard of 10 grams = [tex]\frac{24}{90}[/tex] = 0.27

[tex]\hat p_2[/tex] = sample proportion of cars driven at low altitudes who exceeded a standard of 10 grams = [tex]\frac{42}{380}[/tex] = 0.11

[tex]n_1[/tex] = sample of cars driven at high altitudes = 90

[tex]n_2[/tex] = sample of cars driven at low altitudes = 380

So, the test statistics =  [tex]\frac{(0.27-0.11)-(0)}{\sqrt{\frac{0.27(1-0.27)}{90}+\frac{0.11(1-0.11)}{380} } }[/tex]      

                                   =  3.234

The value of z-test statistics is 3.234.

How many gallons of a 5% bleach solution must be
added to 10 Gallons of a 20% bleach solution to
produce that is 15% bleach

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

10 gallons of the 20% solution contain 2 gallons of bleach.

x gallons of the 5% solution contain 0.05x gallons of bleach.

If the two are combined, the resulting 10+x gallons contain 2+0.5x gallons of bleach. The concentration is (2+0.05x)/(10+x).

(2+0.05x)/(10+x) = 15%

2+0.05x = 0.15(10+x)

2+0.05x = 1.5+0.15x

0.5 = 0.10x

x = 5

5 gallons of 5% solution is added to the 10 gallons of 20% solution.

a lottery offers one $1000 prize one $500 and two $50 prizes. one thousand tickets are sold at $2.50. what is the expectived profit

Answers

Answer:

 $900

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin with let us estimate the total cash value of the prices

$1000 x 1= 1000

$500 x 1=  500

$50 x 2= 100

Total = $1600

Now let us calculate the total cost of tickets sold at $2.50 per tickets for 1000 tickets

2.5*1000= $2,500

Assuming worse case that the lottery had winners in all three categories and i.e the total prices given out is $1600

Then the expected profit is = $2,500-$1600= $900

For the regression equation, Ŷ = +20X + 200 what can be determined about the correlation between X and Y?

Answers

Answer:

There is a positive correlation between X and Y.

Step-by-step explanation:

The estimated regression equation is:

[tex]\hat Y=20X+200[/tex]

The general form of a regression equation is:

[tex]\hat Y=b_{yx}X+a[/tex]

Here, [tex]b_{yx}[/tex] is the slope of a line of Y on X.

The formula of slope is:

[tex]b_{yx}=r(X,Y)\cdot \frac{\sigma_{y}}{\sigma_{x}}[/tex]

Here r (X, Y) is the correlation coefficient between X and Y.

The correlation coefficient is directly related to the slope.

And since the standard deviations are always positive, the sign of the slope is dependent upon the sign of the correlation coefficient.

Here the slope is positive.

This implies that the correlation coefficient must have been a positive values.

Thus, it can be concluded that there is a positive correlation between X and Y.

Answer:

f¯¹(x) = 23/ (6x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (23 – 3x)/6x

The inverse, f¯¹, for the above function can be obtained as follow:

f(x) = (23 – 3x)/6x

Let y be equal to f(x)

Therefore, f(x) = (23 – 3x)/6x will be written as:

y = (23 – 3x)/6x

Next, interchange x and y.

This is illustrated below:

y = (23 – 3x)/6x

x = (23 – 3y)/6y

Next, make y the subject of the above expression. This is illustrated below:

x = (23 – 3y)/6y

Cross multiply

6xy = 23 – 3y

Collect like terms

6xy + 3y = 23

Factorise

y(6x + 3) = 23

Divide both side by (6x + 3)

y = 23/ (6x + 3)

Finally, replace y with f¯¹(x)

y = 23/ (6x + 3)

f¯¹(x) = 23/ (6x + 3)

Therefore, the inverse, f¯¹, for the function f(x) = (23 – 3x)/6x is

f¯¹(x) = 23/ (6x + 3)

In a survey of 2065 adults in a certain country conducted during a period of economic​ uncertainty, 63​% thought that wages paid to workers in industry were too low. The margin of error was 4 percentage points with ​95% confidence. For parts​ (a) through​ (d) below, which represent a reasonable interpretation of the survey​ results? For those that are not​ reasonable, explain the flaw.

part a:(We are 95 % confident 63 % of adults in the country during the period of economic uncertainty felt wages paid to workers in industry were too low.)

part b:  We are 91 % to 99 % confident 63 % of adults in the country during the period of economic uncertainty felt wages paid to workers in industry were too low.

part c:  We are 95 % confident the proportion of adults in the country during the period of economic uncertainty who believed wages paid to workers in industry were too low was between 0.59 and 0.67. Is the interpretation reasonable?

part d: In 95 % of samples of adults in the country during the period of economic uncertainty, the proportion who believed wages paid to workers in industry were too low is between 0.59 and 0.67. Is the interpretation reasonable?

Answer : For part A :

The interpretation is flawed. No interval has been provided about the population proportion.  

part B :

The interpretation is flawed. The interpretation indicates that the level of confidence is varying.  

Part C

The interpretation is reasonable.

Part D

The interpretation is flawed. The interpretation suggests that this interval sets the standard for all the other intervals, which is not true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data: Population = 2065 ,

probability = 63% = 0.6,

margin of error = 4% = 0.04

confidence interval (95%) = ( 0.59,0.67 )  

For part A :

The interpretation is flawed. No interval has been provided about the population proportion.  this is because the confidence interval is not mentioned

part B :

The interpretation is flawed. The interpretation indicates that the level of confidence is varying.  this is because the confidence interval is a fixed value

Part C

The interpretation is reasonable.

this is because the confident level given is fixed

Part D

The interpretation is flawed. The interpretation suggests that this interval sets the standard for all the other intervals, which is not true.

Comment on nomenclature

'Altitude' is usually associated with the height of a triangle. In the case of a regular polygon, the 'altitude' of a triangular section of the polygon is called the 'apothem', and is often designated using the letter 'a'. If the polygon is regular, the apothem can be calculated from the side length and the number of sides, but it is often given in problems involving area, perimeter, and/or volume.

The distance between the parallel bases of a prism is often referred to as the prism height or length. The use of the word 'altitude' is confusing in this case.

Since the lateral area is the product of the perimeter of the base and the distance between bases, we have to assume that your 'altitude' refers to the distance between bases. Otherwise, there is not sufficient information to work the problem.

Raul and his friends each way 1/20 of a ton are standing on a truck scale . The total weight shown by the scale is 3/4 of a ton . How can I find the total number of people on the scale when Raul and his friends are weighed?

Answers

Answer: There are 15 friends.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there is N friends (N is the number that we are looking for)

Each friend weights 1/20 ton.

Now, the weight of the N friends together is N times 1/20 ton.

Then we have:

N*(1/20) ton = 3/4 ton

We solve this for N.

First multiply both sides by 20.

20*N*(1/20) = N = 20*(3/4) = 60/4 = 15

Answer:

I can find the total number of people by dividing the total weight by the weight of one person.
