The operator of a pumping station has observed that demand for water during early afternoon hours has an approximately exponential distribution with mean 100 cfs (cubic feet per second). Find the probability that the demand will exceed 170 cfs during the early afternoon on a randomly selected day. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.1827

Step-by-step explanation:

Given mean of exponential distribution = 100

==> 1/χ = 100  ==> χ = 1/100 ==> χ = 0.01

PDF of χ , f(x) = χe^(-χx), x ≥ 0

===> f(x) = 0.01e^(-0.01x), x ≥ 0

Now we find the probability that the demand will exceed 170 cfs during the early afternoon on a randomly selected day

P(X>170) = ∞∫170 f(x)dx

P(X>170) = ∞∫170 0.01 e^(0.01x) dx

P(X>170) = [e^(-0.01x) / -0.01]^∞  base 170

P(X>170) = -1 [e^-∞  - e^-0.01*170]

P(X>170) = e^-1.7

P(X>170) = 0.1827

The probability that the demand will exceed 170 cfs during the early afternoon on a randomly selected day is 0.1827

Find the sample size required to estimate the percentage of college students who take a statistics course. Assume that we want 95% confidence that the proportion from the sample is within four percentage points of the true population percentage. Round the answer to the next larger whole number.

Answers

Answer:

The sample size is    [tex]n = 600 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The margin of error is  E = 4% = 0.04

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 normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.96[/tex]

Since the sample proportion (point estimate of the population proportion was not give we will assume it to be  )

       [tex]\^ p = 0.5[/tex]

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as  

    [tex]n = [\frac{Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }}{E} ]^2 * \^ p (1 - \^ p ) [/tex]

=>  [tex]n = [\frac{1.96}{0.04} ]^2 * 0.5 (1 - 0.5 ) [/tex]

=>  [tex]n = 600 [/tex]

Subtract 12 from  both sides

x = 10 - 12

Sam computed a 95% confidence interval for μ from a specific random sample. His confidence interval was 10.1 < μ < 12.2. He claims that the probability that μ is in this interval is 0.95. What is wrong with his claim?
A) Either μ is in the interval or it is not. Therefore, the probability that μ is in this interval is 0.95 or 0.05.
B) A probability can not be assigned to the event of μ falling in this interval.
C) Either μ is in the interval or it is not. Therefore, the probability that μ is in this interval is 0 or 1.
D) The probability that μ is in this interval is 0.05.

Answers

Answer: C) Either μ is in the interval or it is not. Therefore, the probability that μ is in this interval is 0 or 1.

Step-by-step explanation: A 95% Confidence interval shows that there is a 95% confidence that the true parameter is between the lower and upper limits.

A CI is not a probability that the true parameter is in between the interval. The true parameter is either in the interval or not.

So, probability of falling between the limits is 0 (no chance of being in this interval) or 1 (100% possibility of being in this interval).

Then, "either μ is in the interval or it is not. therefore, the probability that μ is in this interval is 0 or 1." is correct.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Explanation:

Finish the Given statement, make use of the relationships of angles and parallel lines, then finish the algebra.

__

2. m∠6 = (1/8)m∠4 . . . . Given

3. m∠6 + m∠4 = 180° . . . . 3. same-side interior angles are supplementary

4. m∠6 + 8·m∠6 = 180° . . . . 4. Substitution (from 2, above: 8·m∠6 = m∠4)

Here is the "algebra" that gets you to line 5:

4a. 9m∠6 = 180° . . . collect terms

4b. m∠6 = 20° . . . . . divide by 9

4c. m∠4 = 8·20° = 160° . . . use the same relation as in step 4

5. m∠6 = 20°, m∠4 = 160° . . . . Algebra

m∠6=1/8m∠4

m∠6+m∠4=180°                S.S int. of parallel lines

m∠6+8·m∠4=180°

m∠6=20° m∠4=160°

At Nivea's Newsstand, 6 magazines cost $12.00. How many magazines could you buy with $16.00?

Answers

Answer:

You could by 8 magazines

Step-by-step explanation:

First, set up the equation 6/12=x/16

cross multiple to get 12x=96

divide both sides by 12 and x = 8

This is a fun, but simple unit rate problem! We are solving for x.

Divide 12 by 6 (cost is usually always first when dividing for unit rate). You’ll get 2.

That means, for every one magazine, it’s 2 dollars.

Now, divide 2 by 16.
Your answer should be 8!

You can purchase 8 magazines for $16 dollars!
