The authors of a certain paper describe a study to evaluate the effect of mobile phone use by taxi drivers in Greece. Fifty taxi drivers drove in a driving simulator where they were following a lead car. The drivers were asked to carry on a conversation on a mobile phone while driving, and the following distance (the distance between the taxi and the lead car) was recorded. The sample mean following distance was 3.70 meters and the sample standard deviation was 1.13 meters.

Required:
Construct a 95% confidence interval (in meters) for μ, the population mean following distance while talking on a mobile phone for the population of taxi drivers.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(3.387 ; 4.013)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval :

Xbar ± standard Error

Standard Error = Zcritical * s/√n

n = 50 ; s = 1.13 ; xbar = 3.70

Zcritical at 95% = 1.96

Standard Error = 1.96 * 1.13/√50

Standard Error = 0.3132200

Lower boundary : (3.70 - 0.313) = 3.387

Upper boundary : (3.70 + 0.313) = 4.013

(3.387 ; 4.013)

The mean area of homes in a certain city built in 2009 was 2438 square feet. Assume that a simple random sample of 11 homes in the same city built in 2010 had a mean area of 2,293 square feet, with a standard deviation of 225 square feet. An insurance company wants to know if the mean area of homes built in 2010 is less than that of homes built in 2009. Compute the P-value of the test. Write down your P-value. You will need it for the next question.

Answers

Answer:

The p-value of the test is 0.029.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean area of homes in a certain city built in 2009 was 2438 square feet.

An insurance company wants to know if the mean area of homes built in 2010 is less than that of homes built in 2009.

This means that at the null hypothesis we test if the mean is the same as in 2009, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 2438[/tex]

At the alternate hypothesis, we test that if it is less, than is;

[tex]H_a: \mu < 2438[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

2438 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 2438[/tex]

Assume that a simple random sample of 11 homes in the same city built in 2010 had a mean area of 2,293 square feet, with a standard deviation of 225 square feet.

This means that [tex]n = 11, X = 2293, s = 225[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{2293 - 2438}{\frac{225}{\sqrt{11}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = -2.14[/tex]

Compute the P-value of the test.

Probability of finding a mean less than a value(in this case, 2293) is a one-tailed test.

The pvalue is found for a one-tailed test, with t = -2.14 and 11 - 1 = 10 degrees of freedom. With the help of a calculator, the pvalue of the test is of 0.029

The p-value of the test is 0.029.

Answers

Answer:

<1 = 138degrees

<2 = 156degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram given;

angle at the vertex = 36degrees

Angle at the intercepted arc are <1 and 66degrees

Using the theorem;

Angle at the vertex is 1/2 the difference of the angles at the intercepted arcs

36 = 1/2(<1-66)

36*2 = <1-66

72 = <1 - 66

<1 = 72+66

<1 = 138degrees

Also since the sum of angle in a circle is 360degrees, hence;

<1 + <2 + 66 = 360

138 + <2 + 66 = 360

<2 + 204 = 360

<2 = 360 - 204

<2 = 156degrees

2. Solve 92n = 404n-7. Round to the nearest ten-thousandth, which is four places after the decimal

Answers

Answer:

n = 0.0224

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is :

92n = 404n-7

We need to solve it for n.

Subtract 92n from both sides,

92n-92n = 404n-7-92n

7 = 404n-92n

7 = 312 n

n = 0.0224

So, the value of n is equal to 0.0224.

Answer:

  k ≈ -0.06729

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial temperature difference is 85 -36 = 49 degrees. After 5 minutes, the temperature difference is 71 -36 = 35 degrees. The constant k is the natural log of the ratio of these temperature differences, divided by the time unit.

  k = ln(35/49)/5 ≈ -0.06729

The equation for the temperature T of the can in the refrigerator is ...

  T = 49e^(-0.06729t) +36

Additional comment

Be careful with the sign. If you're filling in k in e^(-kt), then the sign of k will be positive. Above, we have taken the form of the exponential term to be e^(kt), so k is negative.

Which images are tessellations?

Answers

Image 3 and 4, because they fit perfectly

Option - D - Image 3and 4 is correct

We have the following images.

We have to classify which image is a tessellations.

What are tessellations?

tessellations is also called tiling which involves the covering up of rigid plane surface using the geometric shapes (tiles) ensuring that these shapes don't overlap and leave no gap.

In the image 3, we have a geometric shape called triangle which is used as a tile to cover the surface. These shapes don't overlap and leave no gap as they perfectly fit with one another. Similar is the case with image 4, where hexagonal tiles are used. Therefore, image 3 and 4 are tessellations. The images 1 and 2 does not have any predefined geometric shape and nothing can be said about their perfect fit. Hence these are not tessellations.

Hence, Option - D is correct.

What is a line plot?

A line plot is a graph that shows the frequency of each value by displaying data as points or checkmarks above a number line.

here, we have,

In the given line plot, if we consider each of the options with the plot given to us, we will get to know which of the options are true or not.

A.) A. The difference between the longest length and shortest length is 14 inches.

As given in the plot, the longest string is 14 units while the smallest is 6 units, therefore, the first option is incorrect.

B.) I have twice as many 12-inch strings as I do 8-inch strings.

In the plot since the number of dots represents the number of strings of a particular length, therefore, the number of strings of length 12-inches is 4 and the number of strings of length 8-inches is 2. Thus, the given options are correct.

C.)  The total length of string that I have is 84 inches.

As per the plot, the number of strings of length 6 inches is 1, the number of strings of length 8 inches is 2, the strings of length 12inches is 4, and the number of strings of length 14 inches is 1. Thus, the sum of the length of all the strings is 84 inches.

Hence, the statement is correct.

D.) I cannot determine what the shortest string is by looking at my line plot.

As given in the plot, the length of the smallest string is 6 inches, thus, the statement is incorrect.

E.) Since I need 100 total inches of string for my project, I have enough string.

As the length of all the strings combined is just 84 inches, thus, the statement is incorrect.

Hence, the only option that is correct is 'B' and 'C'.
