During each summer, many families spend part of their vacation time at a beach along the East or West Coast. Due to the popularity of movies like Jaws and The Shallows, and publicity about recent shark attacks on surfers, swimmers, snorkelers, and spearfishermen, Americans have become increasingly concerned about water activities. Research suggests that 58% of all shark attacks involve surfers. One thousand records of shark attacks are selected, and each is categorized by the victim group. Identify the population, sample, and variable for the study.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a

   POPULATION : The population is the surfers , swimmers, snorkelers and spear-fishermen in America

      SAMPLE  : The 1000 records of shark attacks selected

 

     VARIABLE FOR STUDY:  580 surfers

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally the population is the surfers , swimmers, snorkelers and spear-fishermen in America

  This is because it is the entire pool from which a statistical sample is drawn

 Generally the sample  is  the 1000 records of shark attacks selected

This is because this the number drawn from the population for statistical testing also this  contain the characteristics of the population

  Generally the variable  for study is 58%  of  1000 =  580 surfers

This is  because the this  580 surfer is the major focus of the Researchers study

Answers

Answer:

1

  The  correct option is  C

2

 The  correct option is C

3

The  correct option is A

4

The  correct option is B

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  population mean is  [tex]\mu = 100[/tex]

     The  standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 15[/tex]

     The  sample size is  [tex]n = 36[/tex]

     The  sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 105.1[/tex]

Generally

    The  null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o: \mu = 100 \ hours[/tex]

     The  alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : \mu \ne 100\ hours[/tex]

Given that the null hypothesis is  true then the  distribution of sample means  [tex]\mu_{\= x }[/tex], from a sample size of 36 is  mathematically represented as

        [tex]\mu_{\= x } = \mu[/tex]

=>     [tex]\mu_{\= x } = 100[/tex]

According to the Central Limit Theorem the test stated in the question is  approximately normally distributed if the sample size is sufficiently large[tex](n > 30 )[/tex] so given that the sample size is  large  n =  36

Then the test is normally distributed and hence the standard deviation is 15

Generally the standard error of mean is mathematically represented as

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

=>  [tex]\sigma_{\= x } = \frac{15}{\sqrt{36} }[/tex]

=>  [tex]\sigma_{\= x } = 2.5[/tex]

Generally  the approximate probability of observing a sample mean of 105.1 or more is mathematically represented as

        [tex]P( \= X \ge 105.1 ) =1 - P(\= X < 105.1) = 1- P(\frac{\= X - \mu }{\sigma_{\= x }} <\frac{105.1 - 100}{2.5} )[/tex]

=>    [tex]P( \= X \ge 105.1 ) =1 - P(\= X < 105.1) = 1- P(Z<2.04 )[/tex]

From the z-table (reference calculator dot net )

             [tex]P(Z<2.04 ) = 0.97932[/tex]

So

  [tex]P( \= X \ge 105.1 )= 1 - P(\= X < 105.1) = 1- 0.97932[/tex]

 [tex]P( \= X \ge 105.1 ) =0.02[/tex]

4(x - 3) = 4(2x + 1)

Answers

Hi there! :)

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{x = -4}[/tex]

4(x - 3) = 4(2x + 1)

Distribute the coefficient outside of the parenthesis:

4(x)+ 4(-3) = 4(2x) + 4(1)

Simplify:

4x - 12 = 8x + 4

Subtract 4x from both sides:

4x - 4x - 12 = 8x - 4x + 4

-12 = 4x + 4

Subtract 4 from both sides:

-12 -4 = 4x + 4 - 4

-16 = 4x

Divide both sides by 4:

-16/4 = 4x/4

x = -4.

Answer:

x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

or 4*×-4*3=4*2x+4*1

or 4x-12=8x+4

or 4x-8x=4+12

or -4x=16

or x=16/-4

Answers

Answer:

27 trees needs to be in the orchard.

Step-by-step explanation:

amber needs to harvest at least 2293 of plums to cover the cost of running the orchard.

but also wants to donate 280 plums.

each tree produces an average of 83 plums

find: how many plums of trees needed to be in the orchard?

number of trees required = total harvest / number of plums produced per tree

therefore,

number of trees required = 2293 / 83 ≅ 27 trees needs to be in the orchard.

so Amber can donate 280 plums to charity.

Please help me solve this 166=-w+66

Answers

Answer:

w = -100

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write out equation

166 = -w + 66

Step 2: Subtract 66 on both sides

100 = -w

Step 3: Divide both sides by -1

w = -100

Answer:

w=-100

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

166= -w +66

To solve for x, we must get x by itself on one side of the equation.

66 is being added to -w. The inverse of addition is subtraction. Subtract 66 from both sides of the equation.

166-66= -w+66-66

166-66= -w

100= -w

-1 and w are being multiplied. The invers of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the equation by -1.

100/-1= -w/-1

100/-1=w

-100=w

Let's check our solution. Plug -100 in for w.

166= -w+66

166= -(-100)+66

166=100+66

166=166

The statement above is true, so we know our solution is correct.

The solution to 166= -w+66 is w= -100

A stock price S is governed where z is a standardized Wiener process. Find the process that governs G(t)

Answers

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A stock price S is governed by dS = aSdt + bSdz

where z is a standardized Wiener process. Find the process that governs G(t) = S^1/2(t)

Answer:

G = S^1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving the Equation

dS = aSdt + bSdz

First we Take S common from Right hand Side

dS = S(a dt + b dz)

Then we also take S Left Hand Side(LHS) from RHS

dS/S = a dt + b dz

So d = a dt + b dz

now we Take d Common from RHS

d = d(a t + b z)

So

d/d = a t + b z

1 = a t + b z

So, t = (1-b z) / a

Now  substitute value of t in equation G(t) = S^1/2(t)

we have

G{(1- b z)/a} = S^1/2 {(1- b z)/a}

(1- b z)/a) from both sides cancels out each other

So we have  G = S^1/2

Limes are on sale. That sale price is 8 limes for $2.00. Why could the unit rate be 4 or 0.25?

Answers

Answer:

 C.No, because each lime will cost a bit more than 30¢, so 4 limes will cost a bit more than $1.20.Step-by-step explanation:

The unit price of the 8 limes is $0.25 per lime.

The given expression:

The selling price for 8 limes = $2.00

To find:

if the unit price is $4 or $0.25

The unit price of the lime is calculated by dividing the total selling price by the total number of limes purchased.

[tex]unit \ price = \frac{total \ amount \ paid \ for \ 8 \ limes }{8 \ limes } \\\\unit \ price =\frac{\$ \ 2}{8 \ limes } \\\\unit \ price = (\frac{1}{4} ) \frac{\$}{lime} \\\\unit \ price = \$0.25 \ per \ lime[/tex]

Thus, the unit price of the 8 limes is $0.25 per lime.

Step-by-step explanation:

Relevant data provided as per the requirement is shown below:-

Female probability of age between 55 to 69 = 2058

Male probability of age between 55 to 69 = 4571

According to the given situation, the calculation of probability is shown below:-

Given: m∠A + m∠B = 90° (Definition of Complementary Angles).

Why it isn't the others:

B) m∠A = 90° - (5x + 8)

You are solving for complementary angles (90° in total when combined), so you subtract the measurement for B (5x + 8) to get A.

C) m∠A = 180° - 2(5x + 8)°

You double the complementary angle to solve for the supplementary. Essentially, just divide this answer by two to get the complementary angles.

D) m∠A = 82 - 5x

I was confused by this one, but essentially they just did one step of the isolating the variable, which was subtracting 8 from both sides. They did not finish isolating the variable however.

The total manufacturing costs added during the period is:

Answers

Answer:

$440,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct material:

= $195,000 - $30,000

= $165,000

Direct labor:

= $150,000 - $40,000

= $110,000

Manufacturing overhead:

150% of direct labor cost.

= $110,000 x 150 ÷ 100

= $16,500,000 ÷ 100

= $165,000

Total manufacturing costs:

= $165,000 + $110,000 + $165,000

= $275,000 + $165,000

= $440,000

The total manufacturing costs added during the period is: $440,000
