Answer:
a) The 98% confidence interval for the mean weight is between 10.00409 grams and 10.00471 grams
b) 49 measurements are needed.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question a:
We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.98}{2} = 0.01[/tex]
Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].
That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.01 = 0.99[/tex], so Z = 2.327.
Now, find the margin of error M as such
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
[tex]M = 2.327\frac{0.0003}{\sqrt{5}} = 0.00031[/tex]
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 10.0044 - 0.00031 = 10.00409 grams
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 10 + 0.00031 = 10.00471 grams
The 98% confidence interval for the mean weight is between 10.00409 grams and 10.00471 grams.
(b) How many measurements must be averaged to get a margin of error of +/- 0.0001 with 98% confidence?
We have to find n for which M = 0.0001. So
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.0001 = 2.327\frac{0.0003}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.0001\sqrt{n} = 2.327*0.0003[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{2.327*0.0003}{0.0001}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{2.327*0.0003}{0.0001})^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 48.73[/tex]
Rounding up
49 measurements are needed.
Coastal Insurance Company underwrites insurance for beachfront properties along the Virginia, North and South Carolina and Georgia coasts. It uses the estimate that the probability of a named Category III hurricane or higher striking that particular region of the coast in any one year is 0.05. If a homeowner takes a 30-year mortgage on a recently purchased property, what is the likelihood that the owner will experience at least one Category III hurricane during the mortgage period
Answer:
0.7769 = 77.69% probability that the owner will experience at least one Category III hurricane during the mortgage period
Step-by-step explanation:
We have only the mean, so we use the Poisson distribution to solve this question.
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.
It uses the estimate that the probability of a named Category III hurricane or higher striking that particular region of the coast in any one year is 0.05.
This means that [tex]\mu = 0.05n[/tex], in which n is the number of yeas.
If a homeowner takes a 30-year mortgage on a recently purchased property, what is the likelihood that the owner will experience at least one Category III hurricane during the mortgage period
30 years means that [tex]\mu = 0.05*30 = 1.5[/tex].
This probability is:
[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)[/tex]
In which
[tex]P(X = x) = \frac{e^{-\mu}*\mu^{x}}{(x)!}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 0) = \frac{e^{-1.5}*(1.5)^{0}}{(0)!} = 0.2231[/tex]
[tex]P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) = 1 - 0.2231 = 0.7769[/tex]
0.7769 = 77.69% probability that the owner will experience at least one Category III hurricane during the mortgage period
Let X become a variable refer to the number of Category ll hurricanes that occurred during the mortgage period. As per the information given, the variable x has a random variable.
The mortgage duration is specified as n = 30, and the likelihood of a category ll hurricane in either given year is given as p=0.05.For point a:
The chances of seeing as least one Category lll hurricane are as follows:[tex]\to P(X > 1) = 1 - P(X = 0)\\\\ \to P(X > 1) = 1^{-30} C_o (0.05)^0 (1 -0.05)^{30}\\\\ \to P(X > 1) = 0.7854[/tex]
For point b:
The chances to see at least two category III hurricanes are as follows:[tex]\to P(X > 2) = 1 - P(X =0) - P(X = 1)\\\\ \to P(X > 2) = 1 ^{-30} C_0(0.05)^0 (1 -0.05)^{30 -30} C_1 (0.05)^1+(1 - 0.05)^{29}\\\\ \to P(X > 2) = 0.4465[/tex]

Is this statement always true? Or sometimes true? Or
never true?
X-y is greater than x+y
Always
Sometimes or
Never
Answer:
Sometimes. Say x = 3 and y = 4. 3 + 4 = 7, 3 - 4 = -1. However, the subtraction problem can be greater than the addition if you add some negatives into the mix. Say x = 3 and y = -4. 3 + (-4) is the same as subtracting 4, which give you -1. However, when you subtract negative four, it's the same as adding four, which gives you seven.

1. Consider the surface area of the following pyramid.
Calculate the total surface area of the pyramid. Show your work!
Answer:
Answer:
45 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
You use the formulas 1/2*base*height for area of a triangle and edge squared for the square so you do 1/2*2.24*3 for the area of one triangle, then times this by 4 to account for all triangles, then you add this to 3*3 which is the area of the square
Assume that the heights of men are normally distributed with a mean of 69.0 inches and a standard deviation of 2.8 inches. If the top 5 percent and bottom 15 percent are excluded for an experiment, what is the bottom cutoff heights to be eligible for this experiment? Round your answers to one decimal place.
Answer:
The bottom cutoff heights to be eligible for this experiment is 66.1 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
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 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.
Mean of 69.0 inches and a standard deviation of 2.8 inches.
This means that [tex]\mu = 69, \sigma = 2.8[/tex]
What is the bottom cutoff heights to be eligible for this experiment?
The bottom 15% are excluded, so the bottom cutoff is the 15th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.15. So X when Z = -1.037.
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]-1.037 = \frac{X - 69}{2.8}[/tex]
[tex]X - 69 = -1.037*2.8[/tex]
[tex]X = 66.1[/tex]
The bottom cutoff heights to be eligible for this experiment is 66.1 inches.

Over 4 days, Krista deposited $45 into
her bank account, transferred $30 to a
friend, deposited $59, and withdrew
$18. What was the mean change per day
to Krista's account during that week?
Answer:
50
Step-by-step explanation:
45 - 30 = 15
15 + 59 = 74
74 - 18 = 56
The mean change per day to Krista's account during the week is $ 14
What is Average?
The average value in a set of numbers is the middle value, calculated by dividing the total of all the values by the number of values.
Given data ,
The total sum of money in Krista's account = $45 - $30 + $59 - $18
= $56
Total number of days = 4 days
Now ,
Mean change per day = Sum of money in Krista's account / Total number of days
Mean change per day = 56 / 4
= $ 14
Hence , The mean change per day to Krista's account during the week is $ 14

If I paid with two $10.00 notes, how much
change did I receive?
Answer:
7.02
Step-by-step explanation:
20 ¢ x 5 = 1.00
3 x 3.99 = 11.97
11.97 + 1.00 = 12.97
20.00 - 12.97 = 7.02
Two companies manufacture a rubber material intended for use in an automotive application. The part will be subjected to abrasive wear in the field application, so we decide to compare the material produced by each company in a test. Twenty-five samples of material from each company are tested in an abrasion test, and the amount of wear after 1000 cycles is observed. For company 1, the sample mean and standard deviation of wear are
xÌ… = 20 milligrams / 1000cycless
s1= 2 milligrams/1000cycles and for company 2, you obtain
xÌ… 2 = 15 milligrams /1000cycles
and
s2= 8 milligrams / 1000cycles
Required:
a. Do the data support the claim that the two companies produce material with different mean wear? Use α = 0.05, and assume that each population is normally distributed but that their variances are not equal. What is the P-value for this test?
b. Do the data support a claim that the material from company 1 has higher mean wear than the material from company 2? Use the same assumptions as in part (a).
c. Construct confidence intervals that will address the questions in parts (a) and (b) above.
Step-by-step explanation:
Due to the time it took to solve this question, I had little time to type the answers fully
The answers are contained fully in the attachment I have uploaded.
A. H0: u1 = u2
H1: u1 not equal to u2
The t statistics was solved to be 3.03
The degree of freedom was solved to be 26
Given this information, this is a 3 tailed test, critical value at 5% = +-2.056
T stat > critical value
We therefore reject the null hypothesis at 5% and conclude they have different mean wear
The p value is calculated using excel and the result is 0.00544
We reject null at 5% since p value is less than 0.05
B. H0: u1 = u2
H1: u1>u2
Alpha = 0.05
Following a,
Test stat = 3.03
Df = 26
Critical value for 1 tailed test = 1.706
Test stat > 1.706
We reject H0 and conclude company 1 has higher mean wear.
We find p value for a right tailed distribution using excel
Tdist(3.03,26,1)
= 0.002722
We reject h0
C. Confidence interval

Answer:
63
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
117°
Step-by-step explanation: We know that the angles of a triangle have to equal 180°. We already know one angle (75°) and we can find the others. Vertical angles are congruents so the angle opposite 42° is also 42° So add 42 and 75 and you get 117. Keep in mind that all the angles have to equal 180 so 180-117 will get you the last angle measure. 180-117= 63. BUT that's not the answer because that is not x and it asks for x. So we know that a straight line also equals 180 that angle that we found that was 63 plus x should get us 180. To find that we do 180-63 and find that x=117° Hope this made sense!

Solving proportions
Answer:
[tex]x = \frac{3}{2} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] \frac{x + 6}{x + 1} = \frac{6}{2} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{6}{2} = 3[/tex]
so, the solution of the equation will be as follows:
[tex] \frac{x + 6}{x + 1} = 3[/tex]
3(x+1) = x + 6
3x + 3 = x + 6
3x - x = 6 - 3
[tex]x = \frac{3}{2} [/tex]
so, the answer will be x = 3/2
