For the total population of a large a southern city, mean family income is
$34,000, with a standard deviation (for the population) of $5,000. Imagine
that your are taking a subsample of 200 city residents. What is the Z score for
$37,000 ?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The Z score for $37,000 is 8.49.

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 estabilishes 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.

Mean family income is $34,000, with a standard deviation (for the population) of $5,000.

This means that [tex]\mu = 34000, \sigma = 5000[/tex]

Subsample of 200 city residents.

This means that [tex]n = 200, s = \frac{5000}{\sqrt{200}} = 353.55[/tex]

What is the Z score for $37,000 ?

This is Z when X = 37000. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{37000 - 34000}{353.55}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 8.49[/tex]

The Z score for $37,000 is 8.49.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Distance = 38.57ft[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Base = 60[/tex]

[tex]\theta = 50[/tex]

Required

The distance between the top and John

The distance is calculated using:

[tex]sin\alpha = \frac{Distance}{Base}[/tex]

Where

[tex]\alpha = 90 - \theta[/tex] --- the angle between the diagonal line and the vertical line

[tex]\alpha = 90 - 50[/tex]

[tex]\alpha = 40[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Sin(40) = \frac{Distance}{60}[/tex]

[tex]Distance = 60 * sin(40)[/tex]

[tex]Distance = 60 * 0.6428[/tex]

[tex]Distance = 38.57ft[/tex]

[tex]Distance = 986 * tan(38)[/tex]

[tex]Distance = 986 * 0.7812[/tex]

[tex]Distance = 770ft[/tex] --- approximated

Answer:

  a) zeros: -2/3, 6

  b) x < -2/3, signs: -, -; sign of product: +

  -2/3 < x < 6, signs: +, -; sign of product: -

  x > 6, signs: + +; sign of product: +

  c) solution: x < -2/3 ∪ x > 6

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The zeros of the product are the values of x that make either factor zero. (A product is only zero if one of the factors is zero.)

  3x +2 = 0   ⇒   x = -2/3

  x -6 = 0   ⇒   x = 6

The zeros of the quadratic are x = -2/3 and x = 6.

__

b) For values of x left of the left-most zero, both factors are negative. For values of x between the zeros, the left factor is positive and the right factor is negative. For values of x greater than the right-most zero, both factors are positive. That is, for large negative values of x, all factors are negative. Working left-to-right, each time a zero is crossed, one factor changes sign.

__

c) The solution is where the signs of the factors match:

  x < -2/3 or -6 < x

You would like to have $10,000 in an account after eight years time. If the account earns 2.5% compounded interest yearly, how much would you have to deposit today

Answers

Answer:

You have to deposit $8,207.5 today.

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound interest:

The amount of money in yearly compounded interest, after t years, is given by the following equation:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1+r)^t[/tex]

In which A(0) is the initial deposit and r is the interest rate, as a decimal.

You would like to have $10,000 in an account after eight years time.

This means that when [tex]t = 8, A(t) = 10000[/tex]

2.5% compounded interest

This means that [tex]r = 0.025[/tex]

So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1+r)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1+0.025)^t[/tex]

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1.025)^t[/tex]

How much would you have to deposit today?

We have to find A(0), when [tex]t = 8, A(t) = 10000[/tex]. So

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1.025)^t[/tex]

[tex]10000 = A(0)(1.025)^8[/tex]

[tex]A(0) = \frac{10000}{(1.025)^8}[/tex]

[tex]A(0) = 8207.5[/tex]

You have to deposit $8,207.5 today.

Flying against the wind, an alrplane travels 4700 kilometers in 5 hours. Flying with the wind, the same plane travels 9520 kilometers in 7 hours. What is the rate of the plane in still air and what is the rate of the wind?​

Answers

Answer:

i think this

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Va = the velocity of the airplane

Let Vw = the velocity of the wind

When flying with the wind:

(Va+Vw)*(4 hours) = 4000

4Va + 4Vw = 4000

4Vw = 4000 - 4Va

Vw = 1000 - Va

When flying against the wind:

(Va-Vw)*(7 hours) = 4200 km

7Va - 7Vw = 4200

Substitute 1000-Va for Vw and solve for Va:

7Va - 7(1000-Va) = 4200

7Va -7000 + 7Va = 4200

14Va = 11200

Va = 800 km/hr

Rate of wind:

Vw = 1000 - Va = 1000 - 800 = 200 km/hour

Find the discriminant and the num
x2 + 2x + 7 = 0
A. 28; two real roots

Answers

Answer:

Discriminant = -24, no real roots.

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant is what's inside the square root in the quadratic formula.

The quadratic formula is:

[tex]\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}[/tex]

a = 1

b = 2

c = 7

The question wants the discriminate, we can just focus on the square root part.

When we plug in the parts we got, it becomes:

[tex]\sqrt{4-4(1)(7)}\\\sqrt{4-28} \\\sqrt{-24}[/tex]

Since the inside of the square root is negative, there are no real roots.

m<YVX + 52 + 36 + 43 = 180 (substitution)
