A certain type of automobile battery is known to last an average of 1,150 days with a standard deviation of 40 days. If 100 of these batteries are selected, find the following probabilities for the average length of life of the selected batteries. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) A button hyperlink to the SALT program that reads: Use SALT. (a) The average is between 1,142 and 1,150. (b) The average is greater than 1,158. (c) The average is less than 950.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.4772 = 47.72% probability that the average is between 1,142 and 1,150.

b) 0.0228 = 2.28% probability that the average is greater than 1,158.

c) 0 = 0% probability that the average is less than 950.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

A certain type of automobile battery is known to last an average of 1,150 days with a standard deviation of 40 days.

This means that [tex]\mu = 1150, \sigma = 40[/tex]

Sample of 100:

This means that [tex]n = 100, s = \frac{40}{\sqrt{100}} = 4[/tex]

(a) The average is between 1,142 and 1,150.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 1150 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1142. So

X = 1150

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{1150 - 1150}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.5

X = 1142

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{1142 - 1150}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0228

0.5 - 0.0228 = 0.4772

0.4772 = 47.72% probability that the average is between 1,142 and 1,150.

(b) The average is greater than 1,158.

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1158. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{1158 - 1150}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9772

1 - 0.9772 = 0.0228

0.0228 = 2.28% probability that the average is greater than 1,158.

(c) The average is less than 950.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 950. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{950 - 1150}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -50[/tex]

[tex]Z = -50[/tex] has a pvalue of 0

0 = 0% probability that the average is less than 950.

A. 1/4
B. 1/27
C. 1/64

Answers

We have 12 pens in total

P(first three pens are blue with replacement) = 3/12 * 3/12 * 3/12 =

A cup on the teacher's desk contains 12 pens. There are 3 pens with blue ink and 9 pens with black ink. One student at a time selects a pen at random to sign the attendance sheet and then puts the pen back in the cup.

What is probability?

Probability can be defined as the ratio of favorable outcomes to the total number of events.

Here,
Total number of sample = 12
Favorable outcome = 3
Required probability  that the first three students all randomly select a pen with blue ink = 3 / 12 × 3 / 12 × 3 / 12
                             = 1 / 64

Thus, the required probability  that the first three students all randomly select a pen with blue ink is 1/64. option C is correct.

A large popcorn bag holds four times as much as a small popcorn bag. At the end of a party,

3 1/3 small bags and 2 1/4 large bags were left.


a) How many small bags would the leftover popcorn fill?


b) How many large bags would the leftover popcorn fill?


Please help me fast, also show all work and steps please:)

Answers

Answer:

A]  37 / 3 = 12 1/3 ; B] 37 / 12 = 3 1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Let small popcorn bag hold = p units popcorn. So, large popcorn bag hold 4 times ie 4p units popcorn.

Left popcorn = 3 1/3 ie 10 / 3 small bags , & 2 1/4 ie 9 / 4 large bags.  

So, total popcorn left = Sum( No. of popcorn in each bag x no of bags) =        [ 10 p / 3 ] +  [ (9 x 4) p / 4 ] = 10p / 3 + 9p  = (10p + 27p) / 3 = 37p / 3

A] Small bags for left popcorn = Total left popcorn / Per small bag popcorn  = ( 37p / 3 ) / (p)  = 37 / 3 = 12 1/3

B] Large bags for left popcorn = Total left popcorn / Per large bag popcorn   =  ( 37p / 3 ) / (4p) = 37 / 12 = 3 1/12

Answer:

8.5 in

Step-by-step explanation:

You are solving for the hypotenuse right? So you would use this formula:

c = square root a^2+b^2

the c is the hypotenuse (long side of a right triangle) and a will be 4 and b will be 7.5. substitute the numbers in, solve, and you get 8.5 inches!

x = square root 4^2 + 7.5^2

x = square root 16 + 56.25

x = square root 72.25

x = 8.5 inches

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = -\frac{2}{5}x + \frac{14}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line:

The equation of a line has the following format:

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

In which m is the slope and c is the y-intercept(value of y when x = 0).

A(2;2) and B(-3;4)

When we have two points, the slope is the change in y divided by the change in x. So

Change in y: 4 - 2 = 2

Change in x: -3 - 2 = -5

Slope: [tex]m = \frac{2}{-5} = -\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

So

[tex]y = -\frac{2}{5}x + c[/tex]

A(2;2)

When [tex]x = 2, y = 2[/tex]. We use this to find c.

[tex]y = -\frac{2}{5}x + c[/tex]

[tex]2 = -\frac{2}{5}(2) + c[/tex]

[tex]c = 2 + \frac{4}{5} = \frac{10}{5} + \frac{4}{5} = \frac{14}{5}[/tex]

So

[tex]y = -\frac{2}{5}x + \frac{14}{5}[/tex]

How many solutions
Line A: x + y = 2
Line B: 2x + y = 4

Answers

Answer:

1 solution (2, 0 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

x + y = 2 → (1)

2x + y = 4 → (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) term by term to eliminate y

2x - x + y - y = 4 - 2 , that is

x + 0 = 2

x = 2

Substitute x = 2 into either of the 2 equations and evaluate for y

Substituting into (1)

2 + y = 2 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

y = 0

one solution is (2, 0 )

Answers

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Those are only 2 angles and they already equal 180, Every single triangle has a sum of 180 and if you already hit 180 with only 2 out of the 3 points, it's not possible

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

No, because the 3 angles of a triangle have to add up to 180 degrees. The given 2 angles already add up to 180 degrees leaving no room for the missing angle.

∠2 = 180° - 139°

∠2 = 41°

Answer:

[tex] \displaystyle \angle2 = \bigg[{41}^{ \circ} \bigg][/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given a right angle triangle

we want to figure out the missing interior angle

recall that,

one of angle measure of a right angle triangle is 90° interior angles of a triangle add up to 180°

thus our equation is

[tex] \displaystyle {49}^{ \circ} + \angle2 + {90}^{ \circ} = {180}^{ \circ} [/tex]

simplify addition:

[tex] \displaystyle \angle2 + {139}^{ \circ} = {180}^{ \circ} [/tex]

cancel 139° from both sides:

[tex] \displaystyle \angle2 = {41}^{ \circ} [/tex]

hence,

the measure of the missing angle is 41°
