Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. It is not appropriate to use the normal curve, since np = 7.4 < 10.

2. The probability that more than 32% of the people in this sample have high blood pressure is 0.0033 = 0.33%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial approximation to the normal:

The binomial approximation to the normal can be used if:

np >= 10 and n(1-p) >= 10

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

[tex]\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

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

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

The proportion of U.S. adults with high blood pressure is 0.2. A sample of 37 U.S. adults is chosen.

This means, respectively, that [tex]p = 0.2, n = 37[/tex]

Is it appropriate to use the normal approximation to find the probability that more than 48% of the people in the sample have high blood pressure?

np = 37*0.2 = 7.4 < 10

So not appropriate.

It is not appropriate to use the normal curve, since np = 7.4 < 10.

Part 2:

Now n = 82, 82*0.2 = 16.4 > 10, so ok

Mean and standard deviation:

By the Central Limit Theorem,

Mean [tex]\mu = p = 0.2[/tex]

Standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{0.2*0.8}{82}} = 0.0442[/tex]

Find the probability that more than 32% of the people in this sample have high blood pressure.

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 0.32. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{0.32 - 0.2}{0.0442][/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.72[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.72[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9967.

1 - 0.9967 = 0.0033

The probability that more than 32% of the people in this sample have high blood pressure is 0.0033 = 0.33%.

a woman spent 3/5 of her weekly salary on rent and 25% of her weekly salary on food. Her food cost $2500. How much did she spend on rent

Answers

Answer:

$6,000

Step-by-step explanation:

If her food costed $2500 and was 25%, then she had $10,000 to begin with. 3/5 of $10,000 is $6,000, so her rent costs $6,000.

Answer:

$6,000 on rent

Step-by-step explanation:

Find her weekly salary by dividing 2500 by 0.25

2500/0.25

= 10,000

Now, find how much she spent on rent by multiplying 10,000 by 3/5

10,000(3/5)

= 6,000

So, she spent $6,000 on rent

An examination class of 55% of pupil scored 70% , if 54% scored above 70%. how many scored above 70%.​

Answers

Answer:

54

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the examination class is of 100 students

Now 55% scored 70%  so 55% of 100 is 55

And, the 54% scored above 70% so 54% of 100 is 54

Therefore there are 54 who scored above 70%

Hence, the same would be considered and relevant too

Answers

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Assume that the probability of error-free transmission of a message over a communication channel is p=0.9. If a message is not transmitted correctly, a retransmission is initiated. This procedure is repeated until a correct transmission occurs. Such a channel is often called a feedback channel. Assuming that successive transmissions are independent, what is the probability that:

a) No retransmission is required.

b) Exactly two retransmissions are required

Answer:

a) probability that No retransmission is required is  0.90

b) the probability that exactly two retransmissions are required is 0.009

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

the probability of error-free transmission of a message over a communication channel is p = 0.9

a) probability that No retransmission is required will be;

Let x represent the error-free transmission of a message

Now, the P( error-free_transmission_of_a_message) = 0.90

so;

P( X=0 ) = 0.90( 1 - 0.90 )⁰

P( X=0 ) = 0.90( 0.1 )⁰

P( X=0 ) = 0.90( 1 )

P( X=0 ) = 0.90

Therefore, probability that No retransmission is required is  0.90

b) Probability that exactly two retransmissions are required will be;

P( X=2 ) = 0.90( 1 - 0.90 )²

P( X=2 ) = 0.90( 0.1 )²

P( X=2 ) = 0.90( 0.01)

P( X=2 ) = 0.009

Therefore, the probability that exactly two retransmissions are required is 0.009

Maria found a circular rug for her floor. The rug has a circumference of 50.24 inches. Which formula should Maria use to help her find the diameter of the rug?

Answers

Answer:

She should use the formula [tex]C = \pi d[/tex] to find a diameter of 16 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The circunference of a circle is given by:

[tex]C = 2\pi r[/tex]

In which r is the radius, which is half the diameter. So, it can also be given by the following formula:

[tex]C = 2\pi \frac{d}{2} = \pi d[/tex]

In which d is the diameter.

Which formula should Maria use to help her find the diameter of the rug?

She should use this formula:

[tex]C = \pi d[/tex]

Since the circunference is 50.24 inches, the diameter will be of:

[tex]d = \frac{C}{\pi} = \frac{50.24}{\pi} = 16[/tex]

You look up at a 62 m tall building and find that the angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the building is 51 degrees. How far away from the building's base are you?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

horizontal distance = 62/tan(51°) ≅ 50.2 m

The distance between the building base to a standing point is 50.20 m if the angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the building is 51 degrees.

What is the trigonometric ratio?

The trigonometric ratio is defined as the ratio of the pair of a right-angled triangle.

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that deals with the relationship between the sides and angles of a right-angle triangle.

It is given that:

You look up at a 62 m tall building and find that the angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the building is 51 degrees.

The angle = 51 degrees.

The height of the building = 62 m

Applying the tan ratio

tan51 = height of the building/distance between the building base to a standing point

tan51 = 62/x

x = 50.20 m

Thus, the distance between the building base to a standing point is 50.20 m if the angle of elevation from the ground to the top of the building is 51 degrees.

In which r is the radius.

A water-walking ball has a volume of approximately 904.32 cubic feet. What is the radius of the ball?

Volume in cubic feet, so the radius will be in feet. We have to find r for which [tex]V = 904.32[/tex]. So

[tex]V = \frac{4\pi r^3}{3}[/tex]

[tex]904.32 = \frac{4\pi r^3}{3}[/tex]

[tex]r^3 = \frac{904.32*3}{4\pi}[/tex]

[tex]r = \sqrt[3]{\frac{904.32*3}{4\pi}}[/tex]

[tex]r = 6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that the length of research papers is uniformly distributed from 12 to 25 pages. We survey a class in which 55 research papers were turned in to a professor. The 55 research papers are considered a random collection of all papers. We are interested in the average length of the research papers.
A.) Give the distribution of X. (round your standard deviation to two decimal places. X
∼ N (18.5, _____)
B.) Give the distribution of SumX. Round your standard deviation to two decimal places. SumX
∼ (1017.5, _____).
C). Calculate the probability that the professor will need to read a total of more than 1080 pages. _____

Answers

Answer:

A.) X ~ N(18.5, 3.75)

B.) SumX ~ N(1017.5,27.8).

C.) 0.0122 = 1.22% probability that the professor will need to read a total of more than 1080 pages.

Step-by-step explanation:

Uniform distribution:

A distribution is called uniform if each outcome has the same probability of happening.

The uniform distributon has two bounds, a and b.

The mean is given by:

[tex]M = \frac{a+b}{2}[/tex]

The standard deviation is given by:

[tex]S = \sqrt{\frac{(b-a)^2}{12}}[/tex]

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The uniform distribution can be approximated to the normal, using its mean and its standard deviation.

Sum of n terms of a normally distributed variable:

The mean of the sum will be:

[tex]\mu_{s} = n\mu[/tex]

The standard deviation of the sum will be:

[tex]\sigma_{s} = \sqrt{n}\sigma[/tex]

Suppose that the length of research papers is uniformly distributed from 12 to 25 pages.

This means that [tex]a = 12, b = 25[/tex]

We survey a class in which 55 research papers were turned in to a professor.

This means that [tex]n = 55[/tex]

A.) Give the distribution of X.

The mean has already been given, and the standard deviation is:

[tex]S = \sqrt{\frac{(25-12)^2}{12}} = 3.75[/tex]

So

X ~ N(18.5, 3.75)

B.) Give the distribution of SumX.

Sum of 55 papers, the standard deviation will be of:

[tex]\sigma_{s} = \sqrt{55}*3.75 = 27.8[/tex]

So

SumX ~ N(1017.5,27.8).

C). Calculate the probability that the professor will need to read a total of more than 1080 pages

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 1080. So

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

[tex]Z = \frac{1080 - 1017.5}{27.8}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.25[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.25[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9878

1 - 0.9878 = 0.0122

0.0122 = 1.22% probability that the professor will need to read a total of more than 1080 pages.

A train journey is approximately 150 miles.

How many centimetres will it be on a map with a scale of 30 miles = 1 cm?

Answers

Answer:  5 cm

==========================================================

Explanation:

The jump from 30 miles to 150 miles is "times 5", meaning 30*5 = 150.

So we need to multiply both sides of the equation

30 miles = 1 cm

by 5 and we get

5*(30 miles) = 5*(1 cm)

150 miles = 5 cm

--------------------

Another way to solve:

This involves proportions

Let x be the distance on the paper map that corresponds to 150 miles

(150 miles)/(x cm) = (30 miles)/(1 cm)

150/x = 30/1

150*1 = x*30 .... cross multiply

150 = 30x

30x = 150

30x/30 = 150/30 ... divide both sides by 30

x = 5 cm is the distance on the paper map
