A meat inspector has randomly selected 30 packs of 95% lean beef. The sample resulted in a mean of 96.2% with a sample standard deviation of 0.8%. Calculate an upper prediction bound for the leanness of a new pack using a prediction level of 99%. Assume normality. The contents of seven similar containers of sulfuric acid are 9.8, 10.2, 10.4, 9.8,10.0, 10.2, and 9.6 liters. Find a 95% confidence interval for the mean contents of all such containers, assuming an approximately normal distribution.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a

 The upper bound of the 99% prediction level is [tex] 98.2  [/tex]  

b

 The  95% confidence interval is [tex]9.7383 <  \mu < 10.2617 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering first question

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  n  =  30  

   The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 96.2\%[/tex]

   The standard deviation is [tex]s = 0.8\%[/tex]

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

        [tex]df = n - 1[/tex]

=>      [tex]df = 30 - 1[/tex]

=>      [tex]df = 29[/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  99% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 99 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]

Generally from the t distribution table the critical value  of   at a degree of freedom of is  

   [tex]t_{\alpha , 29} = 2.462[/tex]

Generally the  99%  prediction level is mathematically represented as

      [tex]\= x \pm [(t_{\alpha  , df }) * s * (\sqrt{1 + \frac{1}{ n} } )}] [/tex]

Generally the upper bound of the 99%  prediction level is mathematically represented as

      [tex]\= x + [(t_{\alpha  , df }) * s * (\sqrt{1 + \frac{1}{ n} } )}] [/tex]  

=>    [tex] 96.2 + (2.462 ) * 0.8 * (\sqrt{1 + \frac{1}{ 30} } )}] [/tex]  

=>    [tex] 98.2  [/tex]  

Considering second question

 Generally the sample is mathematically represented as

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

=>           [tex]\= x = \frac{ 9.8 + 10.2 + \cdots +9.6 }{7}[/tex]  

=>           [tex]\= x = 10[/tex]    

Generally the standard deviation  is mathematically represented as

           [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{ \sum ( x_ i - \= x)}{n-1} }[/tex]

=>        [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{ ( 9.8 -10)^2 + ( 10.2 -10)^2 + \cdots + ( 9.6 -10)^2 }{7-1} }[/tex]

=>        [tex]\sigma = 0.283[/tex]

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

      [tex] df =  n- 1 [/tex]

=>    [tex] df =  7- 1 [/tex]

=>    [tex] df =  6 [/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Generally from the t distribution table the critical value  of   at a degree of freedom of  is  

   [tex]t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} , 6 } =  2.447[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]E = t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} , 6 } *  \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]E =2.447*    \frac{0.283 }{\sqrt{7} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]E =0.2617[/tex]

Generally 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]\= x -E <  \mu <  \=x  +E[/tex]

=>   [tex]10 -0.2617 <  \mu < 10 + 0.2617[/tex]

=>   [tex]9.7383 <  \mu < 10.2617 [/tex]

An 8-quart jug of water costs $6.08. What is the price per cup?

Answers

Answer:

$0.19 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find how many cups are in 8 quarts.

1 quart is 4 cups, so to find the number of cups, multiply 8 by 4:

8(4)

= 32 cups

Then, to find the price per cup, divide the cost by the number of cups:

6.08/32

= 0.19

So, the price per cup is $0.19 cents

Find the solution of the second-order linear differential equation that satisfies the given initial conditions. y'' + 6y' + 9y = 0 y(0) = 0 y'(0) = 1

Answers

Answer:

The solution of this differential system is [tex]y(x) = x\cdot e^{3\cdot x}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

This second-order differential equation is homogeneous and linear of the form:

[tex]y'' + p\cdot y' +q\cdot y = 0[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]p[/tex] - First-order constant coefficient, dimensionless.

[tex]q[/tex] - Zero-order constant coefficient, dimensionless.

Whose characteristic polynomial is:

[tex]\lambda^{2}+p\cdot \lambda + q = 0[/tex] (2)

Where [tex]\lambda[/tex] contains the roots associated with the solution of the differential equation.

If we know that [tex]p = 6[/tex] and [tex]q = 9[/tex], the roots of the characteristic equation are, respectively:

[tex]\lambda^{2}+6\cdot \lambda + 9 = 0[/tex]

[tex](\lambda +3)\cdot (\lambda + 3) = 0[/tex]

Which means that [tex]\lambda_{1} = \lambda_{2} = 3[/tex] and the solution of the differential equation is of the form:

[tex]y(x) = e^{3\cdot x}\cdot (c_{1}+c_{2}\cdot x)[/tex] (3)

Where [tex]c_{1}[/tex] and [tex]c_{2}[/tex] are integration constants.

The first derivative of the equation above is:

[tex]y'(x) = 3\cdot e^{3\cdot x}\cdot (c_{1}+c_{2}\cdot x)+c_{2}\cdot e^{3\cdot x}[/tex] (4)

Now, if we get that [tex]y(0) = 0[/tex] and [tex]y'(0) = 1[/tex], then the system of equations to the solved is:

[tex]c_{1} = 0[/tex] (3b)

[tex]c_{1}+c_{2} = 1[/tex] (4b)

The solution of this system is: [tex]c_{1} = 0[/tex], [tex]c_{2} = 1[/tex]. Therefore, the solution of this differential system is [tex]y(x) = x\cdot e^{3\cdot x}[/tex].

how would i slove for x??

Answers

Answer:

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to find the 3rd angle.

180-118=x

x=62

Once you have that 3rd angle, set all the inside angles equal to 180

4x-6+5x+16+62=180 ---> set to 180

9x+72=180 -->combine like terms

9x=108 --> subtract 72 from both sides

x=12 -->divide both sides by 9

Find the mean and the median of the data set. 31,32,36,31,30,35,33,30.

Answers

Answer:

Mean = 32.25

median = 31.5

Answer:

Median = 31.5

Mean  = 32.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of data = 8

Ascending order:

    30 , 30 , 31 , 31 , 32 ,  33 , 35, 36

Median = Average of 4th and 5th term

             = (31 + 32) / 2

              = 63/2

              = 31.5

Mean = Sum of all the observations /number of observations

         = (31 + 32 + 36 +31 + 30 + 35 + 33 +30) / 8

         = 258/8
