The scores of students on a standardized test are normally distributed with a mean of 300 and a standarddeviation of 40.
(a) What proportion of scores lie between 220 and 380 points?
(b) What is the probability that a randomly chosen student scores is below 260?
(c) What percent of scores are above 326.8 points?
Answers
Answer:
a) 0.9544 = 95.44% of scores lie between 220 and 380 points.
b) 0.1587 = 15.87% probability that a randomly chosen student scores is below 260.
c) 25.14% of scores are above 326.8 points.
Step-by-step explanation:
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.
Mean of 300 and a standard deviation of 40.
This means that [tex]\mu = 300, \sigma = 40[/tex]
(a) What proportion of scores lie between 220 and 380 points?
This is the p-value of Z when X = 380 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 220.
X = 380
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{380 - 300}{40}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2[/tex]
[tex]Z = 2[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9772.
X = 220
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{220 - 300}{40}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2[/tex]
[tex]Z = -2[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0228.
0.9772 - 0.0228 = 0.9544
0.9544 = 95.44% of scores lie between 220 and 380 points.
(b) What is the probability that a randomly chosen student scores is below 260?
This is the p-value of Z when X = 260. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{260 - 300}{40}[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1[/tex]
[tex]Z = -1[/tex] has a p-value of 0.1587.
0.1587 = 15.87% probability that a randomly chosen student scores is below 260.
(c) What percent of scores are above 326.8 points?
The proportion is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 326.8. So
[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
[tex]Z = \frac{326.8 - 300}{40}[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.67[/tex]
[tex]Z = 0.67[/tex] has a p-value of 0.7486.
1 - 0.7486 = 0.2514
0.2514*100% = 25.14%
25.14% of scores are above 326.8 points.
Use the given degree of confidence and sample data to construct a confidence interval for the population mean μ. Assume that the population has a normal distribution. A laboratory tested twelve chicken eggs and found that the mean amount of cholesterol was 185 milligrams with s = 17.6 milligrams.
Required:
Construct a 95% confidence interval for the true mean cholesterol content of all such eggs.
Answers
Answer:
CI ≈ (173.8 < μ < 196.2)
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that laboratory tested twelve chicken eggs. Thus;
n = 12
Mean; x¯ = 185 mg
S.D; s = 17.6 mg
DF = n - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11
We have a 95% confidence level. Thus; α = 0.05
Since n < 30, we will use t-sample test.
Thus, from t-table attached at 95% Confidence level and DF = 11, we have;
t = 2.201
Thus,formula for Confidence interval is;
CI = (x¯ - t(s/√n)) < μ < (x¯ + t(s/√n))
CI = (185 - 2.201(17.6/√12)) < μ < (185 + 2.201(17.6/√12))
CI = (185 - 11.1825) < μ < (185 + 11.1825)
CI = (173.8175 < μ < 196.1825)
CI ≈ (173.8 < μ < 196.2)
A sample of 13 sheets of cardstock is randomly selected and the following thicknesses are measured in millimeters. Give a point estimate for the population standard deviation. Round your answer to three decimal places. 1.96,1.81,1.97,1.83,1.87,1.84,1.85,1.94,1.96,1.81,1.86,1.95,1.89
Answers
===============================================
Explanation:
Add up the values to get
1.96+1.81+1.97+1.83+1.87+1.84+1.85+1.94+1.96+1.81+1.86+1.95+1.89= 24.54
Then divide over 13 (the number of values) to get 24.54/13 = 1.8876923 which is approximate.
So the mean is approximately 1.8876923
---------------------
Now make a spreadsheet as shown below
We have the first column as the x values, which are the original numbers your teacher provided. The second column is of the form (x-M)^2, where M is the mean we computed earlier. We subtract off the mean and square the result.
After we compute that column of (x-M)^2 values, we add them up to get what is shown in the highlighted yellow cell at the bottom of the column.
That sum is approximately 0.04403076924
Next, we divide that over n-1 = 13-1 = 12
0.04403076924 /12 = 0.00366923077
That is the sample variance. Apply the square root to this to get the sample standard deviation. This is the point estimate of the population standard deviation. As the name implies, it works for samples that estimate population parameters.
sqrt(0.00366923077) = 0.06057417576822
This rounds to 0.061 which is the final answer.

scientist has two solutions, which she has labeled solution a and solution b. solution a is 60% salt and solution b is 85% salt. she wants to obtain 140 ounces of mixture that is 80% salt. How many ounces of each solution should she use?
Answers
Answer:
We have 60% salt and 85% salt solutions and we need 140 ounces of a solution that is 80% salt.
We set up 2 equations:
A) x + y = 140
B) .60x + .85y = .80 * 140
Multiply equation A) by -.60
A) -.60x -.60y = -84 then we add this to B)
B) .60x + .85y = 112
.25y = 28
y = 112 ounces of 85% salt
x = 28 ounces of 60% salt.
Double Check
112 * .85 = 95.2 AND 28 * .60 = 16.80
95.2 + 16.80 = 112
and 112/140 = 80 per cent!!

use induction method to prove that 1.2^2+2.3^2+3.4^2+...+r(r+1)^2= n(n+1)(3n^2+11n+10)/12
Answers
Base case (n = 1):
• left side = 1×2² = 4
• right side = 1×(1 + 1)×(3×1² + 11×1 + 10)/12 = 4
Induction hypothesis: Assume equality holds for n = k, so that
1×2² + 2×3² + 3×4² + … + k × (k + 1)² = k × (k + 1) × (3k ² + 11k + 10)/12
Induction step (n = k + 1):
1×2² + 2×3² + 3×4² + … + k × (k + 1)² + (k + 1) × (k + 2)²
= k × (k + 1) × (3k ² + 11k + 10)/12 + (k + 1) × (k + 2)²
= (k + 1)/12 × (k × (3k ² + 11k + 10) + 12 × (k + 2)²)
= (k + 1)/12 × ((3k ³ + 11k ² + 10k) + 12 × (k ² + 4k + 4))
= (k + 1)/12 × (3k ³ + 23k ² + 58k + 48)
= (k + 1)/12 × (3k ³ + 23k ² + 58k + 48)
On the right side, we want to end up with
(k + 1) × (k + 2) × (3 (k + 1) ² + 11 (k + 1) + 10)/12
which suggests that k + 2 should be factor of the cubic. Indeed, we have
3k ³ + 23k ² + 58k + 48 = (k + 2) (3k ² + 17k + 24)
and we can rewrite the remaining quadratic as
3k ² + 17k + 24 = 3 (k + 1)² + 11 (k + 1) + 10
so we would arrive at the desired conclusion.
To see how the above rewriting is possible, we want to find coefficients a, b, and c such that
3k ² + 17k + 24 = a (k + 1)² + b (k + 1) + c
Expand the right side and collect like powers of k :
3k ² + 17k + 24 = ak ² + (2a + b) k + a + b + c
==> a = 3 and 2a + b = 17 and a + b + c = 24
==> a = 3, b = 11, c = 10

Alternatively,
-0.5(units^-1) + (-4(units^0)) + (-3(units))
Step-by-step explanation:
On graph, only clearly defined points:
1. x = -3 , y = 0
2. x = -3 , y = -8
3. x = 5 , y = -4
So for:
1. -3 = c ( + a×(0^2) + b×0)
And
2. -3 = a×((-8)^2) + b×(-8) + c = 64×a + (-8)×b + c
Since c = -3 ==> 64×a - 8×b = 0
Simplified ==> 8×a - b = 0 ==> b = 8×a
3. 5 = a×((-4)^2) + b×(-4) + c = 16×a + (-4)×b + c
Since c = -3 ==> 16×a - 4×b = 5 - (-3) = 8
Simplified ==> 4×a - b = 2
Since b = 8×a ==> 4×a - (8×a) = 2
Simplified ==> 2×a - 4×a = 1
==> -2×a = 1
==> a = -0.5
Since b = 8×a ==> b = 8×(-0.5) = -4
So...
c = -3
b = -4
a = -0.5
Then...
a + b + c = -0.5 - 4 - 3 = -7.5

The football coach randomly selected 10 players and timed how long each player took to perform a certain drill. The result has a sample mean of 9.48 minutes and sample standard deviation of 2.14 minutes. Round answers to two decimals. The 95% confidence interval for the mean time for all players is : __________
Answers
Answer:
The 95% confidence interval for the mean time for all players, in minutes, is: (7.95, 11.01).
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom,which is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 10 - 1 = 9
95% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 9 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.2622.
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.2622\frac{2.14}{\sqrt{10}} = 1.53[/tex]
In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 9.48 - 1.53 = 7.95 minutes.
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 9.48 + 1.53 = 11.01 minutes.
The 95% confidence interval for the mean time for all players, in minutes, is: (7.95, 11.01).

Answer:
a. mg/c b. 4. It is the speed the object approaches as time goes on.

Since v = mg/c(1 - e^ -ct/m)
[tex]\lim_{t \to \infty} v = \lim_{t \to \infty} (\frac{mg}{c}[1 - e^{-\frac{ct}{m} } ] )[/tex]
[tex]\lim_{t \to \infty} v =[/tex] mg/c(1 - e^(-c(∞)/m))
[tex]\lim_{t \to \infty} v =[/tex] mg/c(1 - e^(-∞/m))
[tex]\lim_{t \to \infty} v =[/tex] mg/c(1 - e^(-∞))
[tex]\lim_{t \to \infty} v =[/tex] mg/c(1 - 0)
[tex]\lim_{t \to \infty} v =[/tex] mg/c(1)
[tex]\lim_{t \to \infty} v =[/tex] mg/c
b. What is the meaning of this limit?
4. It is the speed the object approaches as time goes on.
This is because, since t → ∞ implies a long time after t = 0, the limit of v as t → ∞ implies the speed of the object after a long time. So, the limit of v as t → ∞ is the speed the object approaches as time goes on.

Amanufacturer of potato chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 433 gram setting. It is believed that the machine is underfilling the bags. A 26 bag sample had a mean of 427 grams with a variance of 324. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled?
Answers
Answer:
There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the bags are under filled.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
Population mean, μ = 433
Sample size, n = 26
xbar = 427
Variance, s² = 324 ; Standard deviation, s = √324 = 18
The hypothesis :
H0 : μ = 433
H0 : μ < 433
The test statistic :
(xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))
(427 - 433) / (18 / √26)
-6 / 3.5300904
T = -1.70
The Pvalue :
df = 26-1 = 25 ; α = 0.05
Pvalue = 0.0508
Since Pvalue > α ; WE fail to reject the Null and conclude that there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled
