Step-by-step explanation:

convert the meters into miles/kilometers to get your answer

Answer 2

The average speed of the runner is 9 meters per second.

What is the difference between average and instantaneous speed?

The average speed is calculated for a period of time while instantaneous speed is calculated at certain instant of time.

For instantaneous speed and average speed are equal for an object moving with constant speed.

The distance travelled and time are given as 450 meters and 50 seconds respectively.

The average speed is given as,

Total distance travelled ÷ Total time taken

= 450 ÷ 50

= 9

Hence, the runner has the average speed of 9 m/s.

[tex]P(t) = 29816591(1.025)^{t-5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation:

The equation for the population of California, in t years after 1990, is given by:

[tex]P(t) = 29816591(1.025)^t[/tex]

In which 29816591 is the initial population, that is, the population in 1990.

From 1995:

First, we have to find the population in 1995(5 years after 1990), which is P(5), which we will consider as the initial value in the equation.

So

[tex]P(5) = 29816591(1.025)^5 = 33734736[/tex]

So

Since t is still given in years after 1990, we have to subtract t by 1995 - 1990 = 5 in the exponent. So

[tex]P(t) = 29816591(1.025)^{t-5}[/tex]

You buy milk at $3.48 per gallon. One portion of oatmeal requires 5 ounces of milk. How much does the milk for one portion cost? Round to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer: $0.1359375

Step-by-step explanation:

First and foremost, we should note that 1 gallon = 128 ounce. Therefore, $3.48 per gallon simply means $3.48 for 128 ounce. Therefore, the cost per ounce will be:

= $3.48 / 128

= $0.0271875

Therefore, the amount for the the milk for one portion cost which requires 5 ounces of milk will be:

= $0.0271875 × 5

= $0.1359375

A company makes windows for use in homes and commercial buildings. The standards for glass thickness call for the glass to average 0.325 inch with a standard deviation equal to 0.065 inch. Suppose a random sample of n = 44 windows yields a sample mean of 0.337 inch.

Required:
What is the probability of x >= 20.337 if the windows meet the standards?

Answers

Answer:

0.1102 = 11.02% probability of x >= 0.337 if the windows meet the standards.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution:

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

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

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes 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.

The standards for glass thickness call for the glass to average 0.325 inch with a standard deviation equal to 0.065 inch.

This means [tex]\mu = 0.325, \sigma = 0.065[/tex]

Sample of 44

This means that [tex]n = 44, s = \frac{0.065}{\sqrt{44}}[/tex]

What is the probability of x >= 0.337 if the windows meet the standards?

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.337. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{0.337 - 0.325}{\frac{0.065}{\sqrt{44}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.225[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.225[/tex] has a p-value of 0.8898

1 - 0.8898 = 0.1102

0.1102 = 11.02% probability of x >= 0.337 if the windows meet the standards.

Bill Board is "lording" his SAT score over his friend, Rhoda Dendron, who took the ACT. "You only got a 25 in math," he chortled, "while I got a 300 in math." Given that the SAT has a μ of 500 and a σ of 100, and the ACT has a μ of 20 and a σ of 5, what is wrong with Bill’s logic (give the answer in both z scores and percentile ranks).

Answers

Answer:

Rhoda, whose ACT has a z-score of 1, scored in the 84th percentile in the ACT, compared to Bill, whose SAT has a z-score of -2, who scored in the 2nd percentile on the SAT. Due to the higher percentile(higher z-score)  on her test, Rhoda did better on her respective test than Bill, and thus, his logic is wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

Z-score:

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

Bill:

Scored 300, so [tex]X = 300[/tex]

SAT has a μ of 500 and a σ of 100.

His z-score is:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{300 - 500}{100}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2[/tex] has a p-value of 0.02.

This means that Bill, whose SAT score has Z = -2, scored in the 2nd percentile.

Rhoda

Scored 25, so [tex]X = 25[/tex].

ACT has a μ of 20 and a σ of 5

Her z-score:

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

[tex]Z = \frac{25 - 20}{5}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex] has a p-value of 0.84

This means that Rhoda, whose ACT score has Z = 1, scored in the 84th percentile.

What is wrong with Bill’s logic ?

Rhoda, whose ACT has a z-score of 1, scored in the 84th percentile in the ACT, compared to Bill, whose SAT has a z-score of -2, who scored in the 2nd percentile on the SAT. Due to the higher percentile(higher z-score)  on her test, Rhoda did better on her respective test than Bill, and thus, his logic is wrong.

b) X - bar = 16.65

Y - bar =  80.04

y = 25.26 + 3.29 ( X )

c) attached in diagram below

Step-by-step explanation:

n = 15

∑ x = 20.0 + 16.0 + 19.8 + 18.4 + 17.1 + 15.5 + 14.7 + 17.1 + 15.4 + 16.2 + 15.0 + 17.2  + 16.0 + 17.0 + 14.4  = 249.8

∑ y =  88.6 + 71.6 + 93.3 + 84.3 + 80.6 + 75.2 + 69.7 + 82.0 + 69.4 + 83.3 + 79.6 + 82.6 + 80.6 + 83.5 + 76.3  = 1200.6

∑ xy = ( 20 * 88.6 ) + ( 16 *71.6 ) + ( 19.8 * 93.3 ) + ( 18.4 * 84.3 ) + ( 17.1 * 80.6 ) + (15.5 * 75.2 ) + ( 14.7 * 69.7 ) + ( 17.1 * 82.0 ) + ( 15.4 * 69.4 ) + ( 16.2 * 83.3 ) + ( 15 *79.6 ) + ( 17.2 * 82.6 ) + ( 16 * 80.6 ) + ( 17 * 83.5 ) + ( 14.4 * 76.3 )

 = 20127.47

∑x^2 =  20.0^2 + 16^2 + 19.8^2 + 18.4^2 + 17.1^2 + 15.5^2 + 14.7^2 + 17.1^2 + 15.4^2 + 16.2^2 + 15.0^2 + 17.2^2  + 16.0^2 + 17.0^2 + 14.4^2

   = 4200.56

∑ y^2 = 88.6^2 + 71.6^2 + 93.3^2 + 84.3^2 + 80.6^2 + 75.2^2 + 69.7^2 + 82.0 ^2 + 69.4^2 + 83.3^2 + 79.6^2 + 82.6^2 + 80.6^2 + 83.5^2  + 76.3^2

   = 96725.86

a) Scatter diagram showing given data

Attached below

B)

X - bar = ∑x / n  = 249.8 / 15 = 16.65

Y - bar = ∑y / n  = 1200.6 / 15 = 80.04

where: Y = Temperature and X = Chirps per seconds

b = [ n ∑ xy  - ( ∑x ∑y ) ] / [ n∑x^2 - ( ∑x )^2 ]

   = [ 15 * 20127.47 - ( 249.8  * 1200.6 )] / [15* 4200.56 - ( 249.8 )^2 ]

   = 2002.17 / 608.36  = 3.29

a = Y-bar - b( X-bar )

Answer:  174 square meters

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

How to get that answer:

We have a 12 by 12 square of area 12*12 = 144 square meters.

Then on top of this we have a triangle with base 12 and height 5, so its area is base*height/2 = 12*5/2 = 60/2 = 30 square meters

Overall, the two areas combine to 144+30 = 174 square meters

---------

Side notes:

The missing side of the triangle can be found through the pythagorean theorem. You could use the trapezoid area formula as an alternative path, instead of finding the area of each smaller piece.We can condense the unit "square meters" into "sq m" or "m^2".

H0 : μ1 - μ2 > 0

Test statistic = 3.96

Critical value = 1.67

Reject H0

We can conclude that there is significant evidence to support the claim that geese do travel more Than pelicans

Step-by-step explanation:

M= xbar1 = 191 ; M = xbar2 = 190 miles

n1 = 61 n2 = 61

s = 1.429 ; s2 = 1.355

Hypothesis :

H0 : μ1 - μ2 = 0

H0 : μ1 - μ2 > 0

Test statistic :

(x1 - x2) ÷ √[(s1²/n1) + (s2²/n2)]

(191 - 190) ÷ √[(1.429²/61) + (1.355²/61)]

1 ÷ √[(0.0334760) + (0.0300987)]

1 ÷ √0.0635747

df = 61 - 1 = 60

Critical value :

y = 12x³ - 15x² + 2 × 1

y = 12x³ - 15x² + 2

Hence, option ( d ) is the correct answer.
