Suppose you are a civil engineer, specializing in traffic volume control for the City of Grand Rapids. Your department has been receiving a multitude of complaints about traffic wait times for a certain intersection in the heart of downtown. To see if these claims are valid, you want to monitor the true average wait time at that intersection. Over the course of a few months, you record the average number of minutes a car waits at the intersection between 4:00 PM and 5:00 PM. With a sample size of 14 cars, the average wait time is 6.313 minutes with a standard deviation of 1.6509 minutes. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the true average wait time for a car at the intersection between 4:00 PM and 5:00 PM. 1) (4.542, 8.084).2) (5.536, 7.09). 3) (-5.532, 7.094).4) (5.532, 7.094).5) (5.872, 6.754).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

90% Confidence Interval = (5.532, 7.094)

Step-by-step explanation:

With a sample size of 14 cars, the average wait time is 6.313 minutes with a standard deviation of 1.6509 minutes. Construct a 90% confidence interval for the true average wait time for a car at the intersection between 4:00 PM and 5:00 PM. 1) (4.542, 8.084).2) (5.536, 7.09). 3) (-5.532, 7.094).4) (5.532, 7.094).5) (5.872, 6.754).

We are given the sample size = 14 cars

This sample size is small so instead of using z score , we would use the t score critical value

First we need to calculate our degree of freedom

Degrees of freedom = n - 1

= 14 - 1 = 13

The t score for 90% confidence interval with a degree of freedom of 13 =

= 1.771

Hence, Confidence Interval =

Mean ± t score × standard deviation/√n

= 6.313 ± 1.771 × 1.6509/√14

= 6.313 ± 1.771 × 0.4412215843

= 6.313 ± 0.7814034257

Confidence Interval

= 6.313 - 0.7814034257

= 5.5315965743

≈ 5.532

= 6.313 + 0.7814034257

= 7.0944034257

≈ 7.094

90% Confidence Interval = (5.532, 7.094)

The Jimenez family is bringing 12 packages of hamburger and hotdog buns to the neighborhood picnic. The hamburger buns cost $2.00 per package. The hot-dog buns cost $1.50 per package. They spent $20 for the buns. Create and solve a system of equations that can be used to find the number of packages of each type of bun purchased.

Answers

Answer:

The system of equations is x + y = 12 and 2x + 1.5y = 20

The number of packages of the hamburger is 4

The number of packages of the hotdog is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that they bringing x packages of hamburger y packages of hotdog

∵ x represents the number of packages of hamburger

∵ y represents the number of packages of hotdog

∵ Jimenez family is bringing 12 packages of hamburger and hotdog buns

x + y = 12 ⇒ (1)

∵ The hamburger buns cost $2.00 per package

∵ The hot-dog buns cost $1.50 per package

∵ They spent $20 on the buns

2x + 1.5y = 20 ⇒ (2)

The system of equations is x + y = 12 and 2x + 1.5y = 20

Let us solve it to find x and y

→ Multiply equation (1) by -1.5 to make the coefficients of y equal in

   values and different in signs to eliminate it

∵ -1.5(x) + -1.5(y) = -1.5(12)

-1.5x - 1.5y = -18 ⇒ (3)

→ Add equations (2) and (3)

∵ (2x + -1.5) + (1.5y + -1.5y) = (20 + -18)

∴ 0.5x = 2

→ Divide both sides by 0.5 to find x

x = 4

→ Substitute the value of x in equation (1) or (2) to find y

∵ 4 + y = 12

→ Subtract 4 from both sides

∴ 4 - 4 + y = 12 - 4

y = 8

The number of packages of the hamburger is 4

The number of packages of the hotdog is 8

The weight of voter A is w1, the weight of voter B is w2, the weight of voter C is w3, and so on. Calculate, if possible, the Banzhaf power index for each voter. Round to the nearest hundredth. (If not possible, enter IMPOSSIBLE.) {76: 52, 39, 31, 25, 9}

Answers

Answer:

Banzhaf power index for each voter

Voter A = 3/4 = 0.75

Voter B = 0/4 = impossible

Voter C = 1/4 = 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

using the Banzhaf power index for each voter

{76: 52, 39, 31, 25, 9}

Voter A = 52

Voter B = 39

Voter C = 31

Voter D = 25

Voter E = 9

lets calculate the Banzhaf power index for Voters A to C

A B = 52 + 39 ≥ 76

B C = 39 + 31 ≤ 76

A C = 52 + 31 ≥ 76

A B C = 52 + 39 + 31 ≥ 76

Lets consider critical

A B  : A is critical  because without A the sum < 76

B C :  B is not critical because without B the sum is still < 76

A C : C is critical because without C the sum < 76

A B C : A is critical as B + C < 76

           B is not critical as A + C ≥ 76

           C is not critical as A + B ≥ 76

Number of times critical : For A = 3, For B = 0 , For C = 1

Banzhaf power index for each voter

Voter A = 3/4 = 0.75

Voter B = 0/4 = impossible

Voter C = 1/4 = 0.25

After 7 hours of driving. Chad had gone 364 miles. What was his average speed? Explain how you got your answer.

Answers

Answer:

52 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance driven = 364 miles

Total time taken = 7 hours

Required:

Average speed of Chad

SOLUTION:

Average speed is the number of miles covered per hour.

Thus:

Average speed = distance covered / time taken to cover the distance

Average speed = [tex] \frac{364}{7} = 52 mph [/tex].

Chad's average speed is 52 miles per hour.

When x is 4, y is 12. If y varies directly as x, which equation relates x and y?

Answers

Answer:

12/4

Step-by-step explanation:

y varies directly with x basically means y÷x so you will have to divide the variables together. In other words, it basically means y varies proportionally as x

so in this case, it would be 12 divided by 4 resembling that y varies directly as x

Answers

Answer:

126°

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to find the 3rd inside angle.

72+54+x=180

126+x=180

x=54

Once you have the 3rd inner angle, you can take 180 and subtract it from it so you would have 180-54 which is 126

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P(-a<z<a)=0.60, from the symmetry of normal distribution, P(z<a) = 0.60+ (1-0.60)/2 =

0.60+0.4/2

0.60+0.2

= 0.8

Considering the standard normal distribution table, we have a = 0.80, thus

z =(x-m)/std = 0.80

the maximum x = m + 0.80×std =

Where m = 246300

Std = 15000

246300+0.80×15000

= 246300+12000

= 258300

For the minimum x

x = m - 0.80×std

x = 246300-0.80×15000

246300-12000

= 234300

When multiplying more than two integers, describe how you know the sign of the product

Answers

Answer:

The number of negative integers given determines the sign of the product.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sign of the product could either be negative or positive. This depends on the number of negatively directed integers in the given integers to be multiplied. Since all integers are directed numbers i.e either positive whole numbers or negative whole numbers.

Thus to know the sign of the product, if the number of negative integers is even, then the product would be positive. But if the number of negative integers is odd, the product would be negative.

Therefore, the number of negative integers given determines the sign of the product.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the equation

[tex]2|(x-2)|-12=0[/tex]

There is a modulus in the equation this means that one value of the modulus will be positive and the other will be negative

Let us solve for the positive first

[tex]2(x-2)-12=0\\\Rightarrow 2x-4-12=0\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{16}{2}\\\Rightarrow x=8[/tex]

Now we add this value with 12 noon

So

[tex]12+8=8\ \text{pm}[/tex]

Let us solve for the negative

[tex]2(-(x-2))-12=0\\\Rightarrow 2(2-x)-12=0\\\Rightarrow 4-2x-12=0\\\Rightarrow x=-\dfrac{8}{2}\\\Rightarrow x=-4[/tex]

So

[tex]12-4=8\ \text{am}[/tex]

The times when the serving time is as advertised is 8 pm and 8 am.

The auto parts department of an automotive dealership sends out a mean of 3.2 special orders daily. What is the probability that, for any day, the number of special orders sent out will be more than 3?

Answers

Answer:

0.603

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that mean = 3.2

Probability that special order sent out will be no more than 3

Using poisson :

P(x) = (e^λ * λ^x) / x!

λ= 3.2

P(x≤3) : = p(x = 0) + p(x = 1) + p(x= 2) + p(x =3)

P(x = 0) = (e^-3.2 * 3.2^0) / 0! = 0.0407622

P(x = 1) = (e^-3.2 * 3.2^1) / 1! = 0.1304390

P(x = 2) = (e^-3.2 * 3.2^2) / 2 = 0.2087024

P(x = 3) = (e^-3.2 * 3.2^3) / 3! = 0.2226159

Hence ;

0.0407622 +0.1304390 + 0.2087024 + 0.2226159 = 0.6025195

= 0.603

find the sum of 301+73+27 , mentally, using the associative property of addition. Show how you can use the property to group two of the addends. Explain how you found the sum.

Answers

Answer:

401

Step-by-step explanation:

301 + 73 + 27

Using the correct order of operations, you would start by adding 301 to 73. Then you'd add 27 to that sum.

Using the associative property of addition, you change the grouping to add 73 and 27 first since that equals 100, and it's easy to add 100 to 301 mentally.

301 + 73 + 27 =

= 301 + (73 + 27)

= 301 + 100

= 410
