Refrigerators in a random sample of 55 refrigerators, the mean repair cost was $150.00 and the standard deviation was $15.50. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the population mean repair cost. Interpret the results.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

146.5619<x<153.4381

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the confidence interval is expressed as:

CI =  xbar±(z*s/√n)

xbar is the mean = 150

s is the standard deviation = 15.50

n is the sample size = 55

z is the z score at 90% CI = 1.645

Substitute and get CI

CI = 150±(1.645*15.50/√55)

CI = 150±(1.645*15.50/7.4162)

CI = 150±(1.645*2.09)

CI = 150±(3.4381)

CI = (150-3.4381, 150+3.4381)

CI = (146.5619, 153.4381)

CI = 146.5619<x<153.4381

Hence a 90% confidence interval for the population mean repair cost 146.5619<x<153.4381

The minimum cost is approximately $147 while the maximum cost of the refrigerator is $153

Find the expected value and the variance of the number of times one must throw a die until the outcome 1 has occurred 5 times.

Answers

Answer: E(X) = 30; Var[X] = 180

Step-by-step explanation: This is a Bernoulli Experiment, i.e., the experiment is repeated a fixed number of times, the trials are independents, the only two outcomes are "success" or "failure" and the probability of success remains the same, So, to calculate Expected Value, which is the mean, in these conditions:

[tex]E(X)=\frac{r}{p}[/tex]

r is number of times it is repeated

p is probability it happens

Solving:

[tex]E(X)=\frac{5}{1/6}[/tex]

E(X) = 30

Variance is given by:

[tex]Var[X]=\frac{r(1-p)}{p^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]Var[X]=\frac{5(1-1/6)}{(1/6)^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]Var[X]=5.\frac{5}{6}.6^{2}[/tex]

Var[X] = 180

Expected Value and Variance of the number of times one must throw a die until 1 happens 5 times are 30 and 180, respectively.

on the first day of camp, Sara hiked 20 miles in 5 hours. At this rate how long would it take Sara to hike 12 miles?

Answers

Answer:

3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

20 ÷ 5 = 4 mph

12 ÷ 4 = 3 hours

hope this explanation makes sense! :)

Sara took 3 hours to hike 12 miles if, on the first day of camp, Sara hiked 20 miles in 5 hours and the rate is 4 miles per hour.

What is a fraction?

Fraction number consists of two parts, one is the top of the fraction number which is called the numerator and the second is the bottom of the fraction number which is called the denominator.

It is given that:

On the first day of camp, Sara hiked 20 miles in 5 hours.

The rate = 20/5 = 4 miles per hour

Let x be the time taken by Sara to hike 12 miles

As its rate of speed of Sara is 4 miles per hour

x = 12/4

The arithmetic operation can be defined as the operation in which we do the addition of numbers, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

x = 3 hours

Thus, Sara took 3 hours to hike 12 miles if, on the first day of camp, Sara hiked 20 miles in 5 hours and the rate is 4 miles per hour.

A train is traveling at 60 mph. If the rate of speed increases 4 mph each hour,
how long will it be before the train is traveling at a rate of 80 mph?
OA) 4 hours
B) 5 hours
OC) 6 hours
OD 7 hours

Answers

Answer:

B) 5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the amount of mph between 60 and 80:

80 - 60

= 20 mph

Since the speed increases 4 mph per hour, we can find how long it will take to get to 80 mph by dividing 20 by 4:

20/4

= 5

So, the correct answer is B, 5 hours

Suppose 52R% of the population has a college degree. If a random sample of size 808808 is selected, what is the probability that the proportion of persons with a college degree will be less than 54T%

Answers

Answer:

The probability is  [tex]P( p < 435.82 ) = 0.54094[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population proportion is  p =  54% = 0.54

    The sample size is  n  =  808

Generally the distribution of the population with college degree follows a binomial distribution  

i.e  

         [tex]X  \~ \ \ \  B(n , p)[/tex]

Generally the mean is mathematically represented as

       [tex]\mu = n * p[/tex]

=>    [tex]\mu = 808 * 0.52[/tex]

=>    [tex]\mu = 420.16[/tex]

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as

        [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{np(1- p )}[/tex]

=>      [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{808 * 0.52(1- 0.52 )}[/tex]    

=>      [tex]\sigma = 14.2[/tex]

Generally 54% of the population proportion is

         [tex]\^ p = 0.54 * 808[/tex]

=>     [tex]\^ p = 436.32[/tex]

Generally by normal approximation of the binomial distribution the probability that the proportion of persons with a college degree will be less than 54% is mathematically evaluated as

      [tex]P(p < \^ p ) = P(\frac{p - \mu }{\sigma } < \frac{\^ p - \mu }{\sigma } )[/tex]

[tex]\frac{X -\mu}{\sigma }  =  Z (The  \ standardized \  value\  of  \ X )[/tex]

=>  [tex]P(p < 436.32 ) = P( Z < \frac{436.32 - 420.16 }{14.20 } )[/tex]

applying continuity correction

      [tex]P(p < (436.32-0.5) ) = P( Z < \frac{(436.32-0.5) - 420.16 }{14.20 } )[/tex]

=>  [tex]P(p < (435.82 ) = P( Z < \frac{435.82 - 420.16 }{14.20 } )[/tex]

=>  [tex]P(p < (435.82 ) = P( Z < 0.1028 )[/tex]

From the z table  the area under the normal curve to the left corresponding to 0.1028  is

   [tex]P( Z < 0.1028 ) = 0.54094[/tex]

=> [tex]P( p < 435.82 ) = 0.54094[/tex]

In a clinical trial of oxycodone, 16 subjects experience headaches among the 227 subjects treated with oxycodone. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of treated subjects who experience headaches. Provide both probabilistic and practical interpretations. (Hint: this is proportion problem).

Answers

Answer:

95% Confidence Interval = (0.037, 0.104)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Confidence Interval if a proportion is:

p ± z × √p(1 - p)/n

z = z score of a 95% confidence interval = 1.96

p = proportion = x/n

x = 16, n = 227

p = 16/227

p = 0.0704845815

≈ 0.0705

Confidence Interval

= 0.0705 ± 1.96 × √0.0705(1 - 0.0705)/227

= 0.0705 ± 1.96 × √0.0002886773

= 0.0705 ± 0.0333013921

Confidence Interval

= 0.0705 - 0.0333013921

= 0.0371986079

≈ 0.037

= 0.0705 + 0.0333013921

= 0.1038013921

≈ 0.104

Hence, 95% Confidence Interval = (0.037, 0.104)

The time taken by artisans A. B and C to do an
embroidery job is 15 hours, 18 hours, and 15 hours.
respectively. A, B, and C begin working together but
after 3 hours B is put on another job. How long will A
and C take to finish the embroidery job?​

Answers

Answer:

3 hours 15mins

Step-by-step explanation:

in 1 hours time, A will complete 1/15 of the job, B will complete 1/18 and C 1/15.

After 3 hours, A completed 3/15 (aka 1/5) of the job, B 3/18 (aka 1/6) and C being the same as A.

total job done after 3 hrs is 1/5 + 1/6 + 1/5 which is 17/30 of the job

left: 13/30

in 1 hr, A and C will do 2/15 of the job (4/30)

therefore, no. of hours needed: 13/4 hours = 3.25 hours (3 hours 15mins)

Answers

Answer:

Option (C)  [0.2574 , 0.2626]

Step-by-step explanation:

Of 250 convicts, there are 65 cases of recidivism.

- Construct a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of cases of recidivism.

This calls for first finding the proportion of cases of recidivism. This will be 65/250  = 0.26

You are 100% confident that the proportion of cases of recidivism is 0.26

You will be 99% confident that the recidivism cases are between:

99% of 0.26  = 0.2574

1% of 0.26  = 0.0026

[0.26 - 0.0026] , [0.26 + 0.0026]  = [0.2574 , 0.2626]

This should be OPTION C, as that option is missing in the list of options.
