The life expectancy (M) in the United States is 85 with a standard deviation of 6 years. A random sample of 36 individuals is selected. What is the probability that the sample mean will be between 82.5 and 86 years?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability that the sample mean will be between 82.5 and 86 years is 0.8351.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central Limit Theorem if an unknown population is selected with mean μ and standard deviation σ and appropriately huge random samples (n > 30) are selected from this population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally.  

Then, the mean of the sample means is given by,

[tex]\mu_{\bar x}=\mu\\[/tex]

And the standard deviation of the sample means is given by,

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

The information provided is:

[tex]\mu=85\\\sigma=6\\n=36[/tex]

As the sample size is large enough the Central Limit Theorem can be used to approximate the sampling distribution of sample mean life expectancy (M) in the United States.

Compute the probability that the sample mean will be between 82.5 and 86 years as follows:

[tex]P(82.5<\bar X<86)=P(\frac{82.5-85}{6/\sqrt{36}}<\frac{\bar X-\mu_{\bar x}}{\sigma_{\bar x}}<\frac{86-85}{6/\sqrt{36}})\\\\=P(-2.5<Z<1)\\\\=P(Z<1)-P(Z<-2.5)\\\\=0.84134-0.00621\\\\=0.83513\\\\\approx 0.8351[/tex]

Thus, the probability that the sample mean will be between 82.5 and 86 years is 0.8351.

Answer 2

The probability that the sample mean will be between 82.5 and 86 years is 0.8351.

Standard deviation σ = 6

Sample size n =36

What is the central limit theorem?

The central limit theorem (CLT) states that the distribution of sample means approximates a normal distribution as the sample size gets larger, regardless of the population's distribution.

Since the sample size is significant i.e. large, so the given scenario can be treated as normally distributed as per the central limit theorem.

So, the standard deviation of sample means =  σ/√n

The probability that the sample mean will be between 82.5 and 86 years:

[tex]P(82.5 < X < 86) = P(\frac{82.5-85}{\frac{6}{\sqrt{36} } } < Z < \frac{86-85}{\frac{6}{\sqrt{36} } } )[/tex]

[tex]P(-2.5 < Z < 1)=P(Z < 1)-P(Z < 2.5)[/tex]

[tex]P(-2.5 < Z < 1) =0.8413-0.0062=0.8351[/tex]

Therefore, the probability that the sample mean will be between 82.5 and 86 years is 0.8351.

Suppose that the log-ons to a computer network follow a Poisson process with an average of three counts per minute.

Required:
a. What is the mean time between counts?
b. What is the standard deviation between counts (in minutes)?
c. If it is an average of 3 counts per minute, find the value of x such that P(X < x) = 0.95

Answers

Answer:

a. E(X) = 0.333 minutes

b. [tex]\mathbf{\sigma_x =0.333 \ minutes}[/tex]

c.  0.9986

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

To find the mean time between counts

Let X be the random variable that illustrates the time between the successive log-ons, then X is exponential with the rate [tex]\lambda = 3[/tex] log-ons per minute.

i.e.

[tex]E(X) = \dfrac{1}{\lambda}[/tex]

[tex]E(X) = \dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]

E(X) = 0.333 minutes

b. Since X is attributed to an exponential distribution, The standard deviation between counts is:

[tex]\sigma_x = \dfrac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\sigma_x =0.333 \ minutes}[/tex]

c.

Given that;

The average number of count per minute = 3

The value of X such that P(X < x) = 0.95 can be calculated as;

[tex]\int \limits ^x_0 \lambda e^{-\lambda t}= 0.95[/tex]

[tex]3\int \limits ^x_0 \lambda e^{3 t}= 0.95[/tex]

[tex]\bigg [ -e^{3t}\bigg ]^x_0 = 0.95[/tex]

[tex]e^{3t} = 1-0.95[/tex]

-3x = ㏑ (0.05)

-3x = - 2.9957

x = -2.9957/ -3

x = 0.9986

The value of x = 0.9986

Answer:

a) 3

b)3

c) 8.9872

Step-by-step explanation:

a) According to the question, mean is 3.

b) Since it is an exponential distribution, standard deviation equals to mean. Therefore, the answer is 3.

c) P[x<X]=0.95

f(x)= λ*e^(-λ*x)

∫f(x)dx, 0 to x

mean = 1/λ =3. So, λ= 1/3.

∫(1/3)*e^(-x/3)dx= 1/3*e^(-x/3)/(-1/3)=-e^(-x/3) 0 to x

-e^(-x/3)+1 = 0.95

-e^(-x/3)=-0.05

x/3=ln(0.05)

x=ln(0.05)*3= 8.9872

The graph of a proportional relationship will always be a straight line that passes through the origin. Why?

Answers

Answer:

Being proportional between two entities, refers to the 'Constant of Proportionality' that would be fixed between them which establishes a relationship between them when multiplied or divided.

If we considered it on a graph, the 'Constant Of Proportionality' may take any real values between the coordinate pairs x and y [x,y]. As even 0 is a real number, it will surely be a constant of proportionality when multiplied since its product would result in itself (0). Hence, both x and y turns 0.

As the coordinates of the origin are always (0,0), the graph  (Or the slope) would surely pass through the origin.

Example :

If we consider a graph such that x=y.

And if we multiply or divide any real number (a) between them.

ax=ay

As a is a variable, and can take the value of 0, the graph can pass through the origin as x and y nullify becoming the coordinates of the origin.

Jim walks 6/7 of a mile every day. Russell walks 1/4 of a mile. How much farther does Jim work than Russell.

Answers

Answer:

Jim walked 17/28 for miles than Russel

Step-by-step explanation:

First you turn 6/7 and 1/4 to have the same denominators. In that case you find the least common multiple which is 28.

7: 7, 14, 21, 28

4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28

Next you multiply the top and the bottom of your fraction my the factor you used to get 28 for your denominator

6/7 x 4/4 = 24/28

1/4 x 7/7 = 7/28

Lastly, you subtract the products you got.

24/28 - 7/28 = 17/28

The missing number in the given table is 180 minutes.

To find the value of x in the equation 2/120 = 3/x, we can use cross multiplication.

First, we multiply both sides of the equation by 120

(2/120) * 120 = (3/x) * 120

To simplify, we have:

2 = 3 * (120/x)

2/3 = (120/x)

To solve for x, we can multiply both sides of the equation by x:

(x) * (2/3) = (120/x) * (x)

2x/3 = 120

To isolate x, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 3/2:

(2x/3) * (3/2) = 120 * (3/2)

x = 180

Therefore, the value of x in the equation 2/120 = 3/x is x = 180.
