A random sample of 16 airline passengers at the Ontario Airport showed that the mean time spent in line to check in at the ticket counters was 18 minutes with a standard deviation of 7 minutes. Construct and interpret a 99% confidence interval for the mean time spent waiting in line by all passengers at this airport. Assume that such waiting times

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the mean time spent waiting in line by all passengers at this airport is between 12.84 minutes and 23.16 minutes. It means that we are 99% sure that the truw mean waiting time for all passengers in this airport is in this interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, so we use the t-distribution to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 36 - 1 = 15

99% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 15 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.995[/tex]. So we have T = 2.947

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.947\frac{7}{\sqrt{16}} = 5.16[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 18 - 5.16 = 12.84 minutes

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 18 + 5.16 = 23.16 minutes

The 99% confidence interval for the mean time spent waiting in line by all passengers at this airport is between 12.84 minutes and 23.16 minutes. It means that we are 99% sure that the truw mean waiting time for all passengers in this airport is in this interval.

A local hair salon has 6 2/3 gallons of shampoo to split among 5 hairdressers. How much shampoo will each hairdresser receive?

Answers

Answer:

1 1/3 gallons of shampoo

Step-by-step explanation:

The above question is calculated as:

5 hairdressers = 6 2/3 gallons of shampoo

1 hairdresser = x gallon

We cross Multiply

5 hair dressers × x gallon = 6 2/3 gallons × 1 hair dresser

x gallon = 6 2/3 gallons × 1 hair dresser/5 hair dressers

x gallons = 6 2/3 gallons ÷ 5

x gallons = 20/3 gallons ÷ 5

= 20/3 × 1/5

= 4/3

= 1 1/3 gallons of shampoo

Therefore, each hair dresser would receive 1 1/3 gallons of shampoo

An automobile manufacturer finds that 1 in every 2500 automobiles produced has a particular manufacturing defect. ​(a) Use a binomial distribution to find the probability of finding 4 cars with the defect in a random sample of 7000 cars. ​(b) The Poisson distribution can be used to approximate the binomial distribution for large values of n and small values of p. Repeat​ (a) using a Poisson distribution and compare the results.

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.1558 = 15.58% probability of finding 4 cars with the defect in a random sample of 7000 cars.

b) 0.1557 = 15.57% probability of finding 4 cars with the defect in a random sample of 7000 cars. These probabilities are very close, which means that the approximation works.

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial distribution:

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

Poisson distribution:

In a Poisson distribution, the probability that X represents the number of successes of a random variable is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

In which

x is the number of sucesses

e = 2.71828 is the Euler number

[tex]\mu[/tex] is the mean in the given interval.

To use the Poisson approximation for the binomial, we have that:

[tex]\mu = np[/tex]

1 in every 2500 automobiles produced has a particular manufacturing defect.

This means that [tex]p = \frac{1}{2500} = 0.0004[/tex]

a) Use a binomial distribution to find the probability of finding 4 cars with the defect in a random sample of 7000 cars.

This is [tex]P(X = 4)[/tex] when [tex]n = 7000[/tex]. So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 4) = C_{7000,4}.(0.0004)^{4}.(0.9996)^{6996} = 0.1558[/tex]

0.1558 = 15.58% probability of finding 4 cars with the defect in a random sample of 7000 cars.

(b) The Poisson distribution can be used to approximate the binomial distribution for large values of n and small values of p.

Using the approximation:

[tex]\mu = np = 7000*0.0004 = 2.8[/tex]. So

[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 4) = \frac{e^{-2.8}*(2.8)^{4}}{(4)!} = 0.1557[/tex]

0.1557 = 15.57% probability of finding 4 cars with the defect in a random sample of 7000 cars. These probabilities are very close, which means that the approximation works.
