g The distribution of the monthly amount spent on childcare in a Midwestern city has a mean of $675 and a standard deviation of $80. A random sample of 64 families in this city paying for childcare is selected. Find the probability that the sample mean is less than $650. (Round the result to 4 decimal places.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.0062 = 0.62% probability that the sample mean is less than $650.

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 of $675 and a standard deviation of $80.

This means that [tex]\mu = 675, \sigma = 80[/tex]

A random sample of 64 families in this city paying for childcare is selected.

This means that [tex]n = 64, s = \frac{80}{\sqrt{64}} = 10[/tex]

Find the probability that the sample mean is less than $650.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 650.

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{650 - 675}{10}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.5[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.5[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0062

0.0062 = 0.62% probability that the sample mean is less than $650.

Answer 2

The probability that the sample mean is less than $650 is 0.62%.

The z score is given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} } \\\\where\ x=raw\ score,\sigma=standard\ deviation,\mu=mean,n=sample\ size\\\\\\Given \ \mu=675,\sigma=80,n=84, hence:\\\\For\ x<650:\\\\z=\frac{650-675}{80/\sqrt{64} } =-2.5[/tex]

From the normal distribution table:

P(x < 650) = P(z < -2.5) = 0.0062 = 0.62%

The probability that the sample mean is less than $650 is 0.62%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Venn diagram which shows the number of students who play basketball and baseball is option A.

What is Venn Diagram?

Venn diagram is a diagram denoting two or more sets which is drawn using circles inside a rectangle where the part where the two circle meet denotes the intersection of two sets.

Let A denotes the students playing baseball and B denotes the student playing basketball.

N(A) = 18

N(B) = 17

N(A ∪ B) = 30

We know,

N(A ∩ B) = N(A) + N(B) - N(A ∪ B)

              = 18 + 17 - 30

              = 35 - 30

              = 5

Number of students who play both baseball and basketball = 5

Number of students who plays only baseball = 18 - 5 = 13

Number of students who plays only basketball = 17 - 5 = 12

This is shown in A.

Hence the correct option is A.

The solution is 3,27,680

The geometric progression is given by aₙ = a ( r )ⁿ⁻¹ , where r = 4 is the common ratio and after 8 hours a₈ = 3,27,680

What is Geometric Progression?

A geometric progression is a sequence in which each term is derived by multiplying or dividing the preceding term by a fixed number called the common ratio.

The nth term of a GP is aₙ = arⁿ⁻¹

The general form of a GP is a, ar, ar2, ar3 and so on

Sum of first n terms of a GP is Sₙ = a(rⁿ-1) / ( r - 1 )

Given data ,

Let the first term of the geometric sequence be a₁ = 20

Let the second term a₂ = 80

So , the common ratio r = second term / first term

On simplifying the equation , we get

Common ratio r = 80/20

Common ratio r = 4

Now , the explicit formula for the GP is

aₙ = a ( r )ⁿ⁻¹ , where n is the number of hours

aₙ = 20 ( 4 )ⁿ⁻¹

So , after 8 hours ,

Substitute the value of n = 8 in the equation , we get

a₈ = 20 ( 4 )ⁿ⁻¹

a₈ = 20 ( 4 )⁷

a₈ = 3,27,680

Therefore , the value of a₈ = 3,27,680

Hence , the equation is aₙ = 20 ( 4 )ⁿ⁻¹

get X's all on same side and the constants all on the other side,  

-2x +2x+16=7x+6+-2x

The X's on the left cancel out.

16=5x+6

-6+16=5x+6+-6

A rectangle is 5 times as long as it is wide. The perimeter is 50 cm. Find the dimensions of the rectangle. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

Dimensions = 21 centimeters by 4.2 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the rectangle be L.

Let the width of the rectangle be W.

Given the following data;

Perimeter of rectangle = 50cm

Translating the word problem into an algebraic expression, we have;

L = 5W

To find the dimensions of the rectangle;

Perimeter of rectangle = 2L + 2W

50 = 2L + 2W

50 = 2(5W) + 2W

50 = 10W + 2W

50 = 12W

W = 50/12

W = 4.2 cm.

To find the length;

L = 5W

L = 5*4.2

L = 21 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the water decreases at a rate of 0.012  ft/sec if a cylindrical tank of a radius of 2.5 feet is being drained of water at a rate of 0.25 ft³/sec.

What is a cylinder?

In geometry, it is defined as the three-dimensional shape having two circular shapes at a distance called the height of the cylinder.

We know the volume of the cylinder is given by:

[tex]\rm V = \pi r^2 h[/tex]

It is given that:

A cylindrical tank of a radius of 2.5 feet is being drained of water at a rate of 0.25 ft³/sec

As we know,

The volume of the cylinder is given by:

V = πr²h

Let V is the water draining rate

V = 0.25 ft³/sec

The radius r = 2.5 feet

0.25 ft³/sec = π(2.5 feet)²(h)

h = [0.25/(2.5²π)]  [ft³/(sec×feet²]

h = 0.012  ft/sec

Thus, the height of the water decreases at a rate of 0.012  ft/sec if a cylindrical tank of a radius of 2.5 feet is being drained of water at a rate of 0.25 ft³/sec.

The manager of a fast-food restaurant wants to be sure that, on average, customers are served within 4 minutes from the time the order is placed. He is particularly concerned about the staff working during the early morning shift. From a random sample of 41 orders, the mean time was 3.75 minutes with a standard deviation of 1.2 minutes.

(a) Is there convincing evidence at the a = 0.05 significance level that the true mean service time during the early morning shift is less than 4 minutes?

Answers

Answer:

There is not convincing evidence at the a = 0.05 significance level that the true mean service time during the early morning shift is less than 4 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is:

[tex]H_{0} = 4[/tex]

The alternate hypothesis is:

[tex]H_{1} < 4[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

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

From a random sample of 41 orders, the mean time was 3.75 minutes with a standard deviation of 1.2 minutes.

This means that [tex]n = 41, \mu = 3.75, \sigma = 1.2[/tex]

The test-statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{3.75 - 4}{\frac{1.2}{\sqrt{41}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -1.33[/tex]

[tex]z = -1.33[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0918, looking at the z-table.

0.0918 > 0.05, which means that the null hypothesis is accepted, and that there is not convincing evidence at the a = 0.05 significance level that the true mean service time during the early morning shift is less than 4 minutes
