) The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) gave a test of basic arithmetic and the ability to apply it in everyday life to a sample of 840 men 21 to 25 years of age. Scores range from 0 to 500; for example, someone with a score of 325 can determine the price of a meal from a menu. The mean score for these 840 young men was x⎯⎯⎯ = 272. We want to estimate the mean score μ in the population of all young men. Consider the NAEP sample as an SRS from a Normal population with standard deviation σ = 60. (a) If we take many samples, the sample mean x⎯⎯⎯ varies from sample to sample according to a Normal distribution with mean equal to the unknown mean score μ in the population. What is the standard deviation of this sampling distribution? (b) According to the 95 part of the 68-95-99.7 rule, 95% of all values of x⎯⎯⎯ fall within _______ on either side of the unknown mean μ. What is the missing number? (c) What is the 95% confidence interval for the population mean score μ based on this one sample? Note: Use the 68-95-99.7 rule to find the interval.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) The standard deviation of this sampling distribution is 2.07.

b) The missing number is 4.14.

c) The 95% confidence interval for the population mean score μ based on this one sample is between 267.86 and 276.14.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the Empirical Rule and the Central Limit Theorem.

Empirical Rule:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

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.

In this question:

[tex]\mu = 272, n = 840, \sigma = 60[/tex]

(a) If we take many samples, the sample mean x⎯⎯⎯ varies from sample to sample according to a Normal distribution with mean equal to the unknown mean score μ in the population. What is the standard deviation of this sampling distribution?

Using the Central Limit Theorem:

[tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{60}{\sqrt{840}} = 2.07[/tex]

The standard deviation of this sampling distribution is 2.07.

(b) According to the 95 part of the 68-95-99.7 rule, 95% of all values of x⎯⎯⎯ fall within _______ on either side of the unknown mean μ. What is the missing number?

Within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

So, 2*2.07 = 4.14

The missing number is 4.14.

(c) What is the 95% confidence interval for the population mean score μ based on this one sample?

Within 4.14 of the mean

272 - 4.14 = 267.86

272 + 4.14 = 276.14

The 95% confidence interval for the population mean score μ based on this one sample is between 267.86 and 276.14.

All I know is that the -3 should be there without the 1/3 because that makes no sense to me. And...

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+8=-4

Subtract 8 from both sides.

3x+8−8=−4−8

3x=−12

Step 2: Divide both sides by 3.

3x=−12

3       3

x=−4

Answer: Tyler's work is incorrect because when subtracting 8 from both sides of the equation, he didn't subtract it from -4. If he subtracted 8 from -4, it would've been 3x=-12.

The correct answer is x = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

you get x = -4 by subtracting 8 from each side of the equation, resulting in 3x = -12

then you divide both sides by 3, leaving you with x = -4

What is the percentage?

The quantity of anything is stated as though it were a fraction of a hundred. A quarter of 100 can be used to express the ratio. Per 100 is what the term percent signifies. The symbol '%' is used to symbolize it.

A bakery sold a total of 120 cupcakes in a day, and 45% of them were chocolate flavored.

Then the number of cupcakes sold that day were chocolate flavored will be

Let x be the number of the cupcakes sold that day that was chocolate flavored.

x = 45% of 120

x = 0.45 × 120

x = 54

Thus, the number of cupcakes sold that day was chocolate flavored will be 54.

Write an explicit formula for the nth term or the sequence 8,-24, 72

Answers

Answer:

[tex]T_n =-\frac{8}{3} (-3)^{n}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Sequence: 8, -24, 72[/tex]

Required

Determine the n term

The above sequence is geometric. So, we calculate the common ratio first:

[tex]r = \frac{T_2}{T_1}[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{-24}{8}[/tex]

[tex]r = -3[/tex]

The equation is then calculated using:

[tex]T_n = ar^{n-1}[/tex]

Where

[tex]a = T_1 = 8[/tex]

and

[tex]r = -3[/tex]

The equation becomes:

[tex]T_n =8 * (-3)^{n-1}[/tex]

Apply law of indices:

[tex]T_n =8 * (-3)^{n} * (-3)^{-1}[/tex]

[tex]T_n =8 * (-3)^{n} * \frac{1}{-3}[/tex]

[tex]T_n =-8 * (-3)^{n} * \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]T_n =-\frac{8}{3} * (-3)^{n}[/tex]

[tex]T_n =-\frac{8}{3} (-3)^{n}[/tex]

Monica paid sales tax of $105 when she bought a new TV. If the sales tax is 5%, what was the cost of the TV?​

Answers

Answer:

$31.5

Step-by-step explanation:

X * 5% = $1.50

X = $1.50 / 5%

Or by using simple rule of three:

If 5% is $1.50

Then 100% is X

So you obtain = $30

Now you just need to sum The net prices and the taxes

Net + tax = Total Charge

$30 + $1.5 = $31.5

aka 8(6 + x) = 120

48 + 8x = 120

you want to get 8x on one side so you will subtract 48 on both sides - whatever you do to obe side you must do on the other side.

8x = 72

now you want the x by its self so to undo multiplication you need to divide, and divide on both sides.

Which point is a reflection of (-4,-3) across the y-axis?
O (3, 4)
O (4, -3)
O (-3,-4)
O (4,3)

Answers

Answer:

The point after the reflection of (-4,-3) across the y-axis is:

(4, -3)

Hence, option B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a point P(x, y) is reflected across the y-axis, we reverse the sign of the x-coordinate while the y-coordinate remains the same.  

Thus,  

The rule to reflect a point across the y-axis is:  

P(x, y) → P'(-x, y)

In our case, we are given the point (-4, -3)

Let say the point is A(-4, -3)

Thus, using the rule to reflect a point across the y-axis is:  

P(x, y) → P'(-x, y)

A(-4, -3) → A'(-(-4), -3) → A'(4, -3)

Therefore, the point after the reflection of (-4,-3) across the y-axis is:

(4, -3)

Hence, option B is correct.

One month she works six 4-hour days, three 8-hour days, three 10-hour days, five 6-hour nights, and four 8-hour nights. What is her total pay for the month

Answers

Answer:

$2,208

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate her total pay for the month we simply need to use the hours provided in the question, multiply each amount of hours by they pay rate for that day/night. Finally, we add all of the products together to get the final pay for the month.

6 * (4*14) = 336

3 * (8 * 14) = 336

3 * (10 * 14) = 420

5 * (6 * 18) = 540

4 * (8 * 18) = 576

336 + 336 + 420 + 540 + 576 = $2,208

Finally, we can see that her total pay for the month is $2,208

Find the Greatest common factor
42,60

Answers

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Greatest common factor (GCF) of 42 and 60 is 6.

As the numbers get larger, or you want to compare multiple numbers at the same time to find the GCF, you can see how listing out all of the factors would become too much. To fix this, you can use prime factors.

List out all of the prime factors for each number:

Prime Factors for 42: 2, 3, and 7

Prime Factors for 60: 2, 2, 3, and 5

Now that we have the list of prime factors, we need to find any which are common for each number.

Looking at the occurences of common prime factors in 42 and 60 we can see that the commonly occuring prime factors are 2 and 3.

To calculate the prime factor, we multiply these numbers together:

GCF = 2 x 3 = 6

Suppose you are hired by the STAR Lab to analyze vehicle arrivals at the right lane of the Evergreen Point Bridge on Westbound SR-520 for the period from 12:00am to 4:00am in a weekday. It is known that vehicle arrivals follow a Poisson process at this location and time period. There is a single-loop detector embedded on this lane at the east end of the bridge. Since you do not want to go to the bridge to count vehicles at this time period, you decided to use the loop detector data for the analysis. Of the 720 20-second intervals (the loop detection system stores data every 20 seconds), 508 intervals were identified to have at least one vehicle detected. Assume the loop detector is free of error. Please estimate the vehicle arrival rate (vehicles per second) for this lane. With the estimated arrival rate, please calculate the probability of having three or more vehicles detected in a 20-second interval and the probability of having a headway shorter than 10 seconds. [15 points]

Answers

Answer:

0.126

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Total time interval = 720

Number of interval in which one vehicle is detected =508

Proportion of atleast one detected vehicle :

508 / 720 = 0.7056

The mean arrival rate per second :

P(x ≥ 3) = 1 - P(x ≤ 3)

P(x ≥ 3) =1 - [p(x =0) + p(x = 1) + p(x =2) + p(x = 3)]

P(x ≥ 3) = 1 - 0.8745

P(x ≥ 3) = 0.1255

P(x ≥ 3) = 0.126
