suppose that a random sample of size 36 is to be selected from a population with mean 44 and standard deviation 8. what is the approximate probability that x will be more than .5 away from the population mean?

Answer:

To find the number of years it will take for the population of the colony to grow from 80,000 to 92,610 with a growth rate of 5% per annum, we can use the formula for compound interest:

Final Population = Initial Population * (1 + Growth Rate) ^ Number of Years

92,610 = 80,000 * (1 + 0.05) ^ t

Now, we can solve for t:

(92,610 / 80,000) = (1.05) ^ t

1.157625 = (1.05) ^ t

To find t, we can use logarithms:

t = log(1.157625) / log(1.05)

t ≈ 2.967

So, it will take approximately 2.967 years for the population to grow from 80,000 to 92,610 at a 5% growth rate.

Now, let's consider a 2% lower growth rate (5% - 2% = 3%). We can use the same formula to find the final population after the same time (2.967 years):

Final Population = Initial Population * (1 + Growth Rate) ^ Number of Years

Final Population = 80,000 * (1 + 0.03) ^ 2.967

Final Population ≈ 80,000 * 1.09364

Final Population ≈ 87,491.2

To find the difference in population for the same time, we can subtract the population with the lower growth rate from the population with the higher growth rate:

Difference in population = 92,610 - 87,491.2

Difference in population ≈ 5,118.8

So, the difference in population for the same time with a 2% lower growth rate would be approximately 5,118.8.

To solve the problem, we can use the formula for the future value of an annuity:

FV = PMT * ( (1 + r)^n - 1 ) / r

where:

- PMT is the periodic payment

- r is the periodic interest rate

- n is the number of periods

In this case,

- PMT = $475 (the monthly payment)

- r = the monthly interest rate

- n = 24 (the number of months in the agreement)

We first need to calculate the monthly interest rate. We can find this by dividing the yearly interest rate by 12 months:

r = 18% / 12 months = 0.015

Now we can calculate the future value (FV) of the annuity using the above formula:

FV = $475 * ( (1 + 0.015)^24 - 1 ) / 0.015 = $13,237.19

This is the amount that Christopher would owe after 24 months if he made monthly payments of $475.

However, Christopher pays off the loan after 18 months. To find out how much he owes at this point, we can calculate the future value after 18 months:

FV = $475 * ( (1 + 0.015)^18 - 1 ) / 0.015 = $10,198.66

So, after 18 months, Christopher owes approximately $10,198.66.

The resulting triangle would have twice the area and all sides would be twice as long as the original triangle, but the angles would remain the same.

A triangle is a geometric shape that consists of three straight line segments or sides that are connected at three points called vertices. Triangles are two-dimensional and are the simplest polygon that can exist in Euclidean space. Triangles can be classified according to the size and shape of their sides and angles. Triangles are used in many different areas of mathematics, science, and engineering. They are also common in everyday life, for example in construction, architecture, and design.

Here,

To dilate a triangle with a center point C and a scale factor of 2, you would first draw a ray from C through each vertex of the triangle. Then, you would measure the distance from C to each vertex of the original triangle and multiply it by the scale factor (2 in this case) to find the distance from C to each corresponding vertex of the dilated triangle. Finally, you would draw lines connecting the dilated vertices to form the dilated triangle.

The difference between the perimeter and area of the figure is -20 square units.

In geometry, the perimeter of a shape is defined as the total length of its boundary. The perimeter of a shape is determined by adding the length of all the sides and edges enclosing the shape.

The figure is a rectangle with sides DE and FG measuring 8 units, and sides EF and GD measuring 6 units.

To find the perimeter of the figure, we can add up the lengths of all four sides:

Perimeter = DE + EF + FG + GD

Perimeter = 8 + 6 + 8 + 6

Perimeter = 28

To find the area of the figure, we can use the formula for the area of a rectangle:

Area = length * width

Area = DE * EF

Area = 8 * 6

Area = 48

Therefore, the difference between the perimeter and area of the figure is:

Perimeter - Area = 28 - 48

Perimeter - Area = -20

The difference between the perimeter and area of the figure is -20 square units.

The approximate probability that x is between 15 and 25 (inclusive) is 0.3026.

To solve this problem, we will use the binomial distribution, since we are dealing with a binary outcome (nonconforming vs. conforming) and a fixed sample size. Let p = 0.11 be the probability of a nonconforming shaft and q = 1 - p = 0.89 be the probability of a conforming shaft. Then, the probability mass function of x is given by:

P(X = x) = (200 choose x) * p^x * q^(200-x)

(a) To find the probability that x is at most 30, we can compute:

P(X ≤ 30) = Σ P(X = x) for x from 0 to 30

However, this is quite tiresome to tally by hand, so we can instead use a normal approximation to the binomial distribution. Specifically, if np and nq are both at least 10, then we can approximate the binomial distribution with a normal distribution with mean μ = np and standard deviation σ = sqrt(npq). In this case, we have np = 22 and nq = 178, both of which are at least 10.

Thus, we can approximate X with a normal distribution:

[tex]X ~ N(mu, σ^2) = N(22, 3.8004)[/tex]

Then, we can compute the probability that X is at most 30 by standardizing and using the standard normal distribution:

[tex]P(X ≤ 30) ≈ P(Z ≤ (30 - mu) / σ) = P(Z ≤ (30 - 22) / 1.9488) = P(Z ≤ 4.1142) = 0.9997[/tex]

(b) To find the probability that x is less than 30, we can use the same normal approximation and compute:

[tex]P(X < 30) ≈ P(Z < (30 - mu) / σ) = P(Z < (30 - 22) / 1.9488) = P(Z < 4.1142) = 0.9997[/tex]

(c) To find the probability that x is between 15 and 25 (inclusive), we can either use the binomial distribution directly or use the normal approximation as before:

P(15 ≤ X ≤ 25) = Σ P(X = x) for x from 15 to 25

However, we can use the normal approximation instead. Using the same approach as before, we get:

[tex]P(15 ≤ X ≤ 25) ≈ P((15 - μ) / σ ≤ Z ≤ (25 - μ) / σ) = P(-3.0806 ≤ Z ≤ -0.5145) = P(Z ≤ -0.5145) - P(Z ≤ -3.0806) = 0.3035 - 0.0009 = 0.3026[/tex]

Therefore, the approximate probability that x is between 15 and 25 (inclusive) is 0.3026.

The property we use,

→ Distributive property.

The expression is,

→ 2(3x + 7)

Let's simplify the expression,

→ 2(3x + 7)

→ (2 × 3)x + 14

→ 6x + 14

Hence, the answer is 6x + 14.

The three numbers are:

(-1 + √(97))/2, (-1 ± √(97))/2, (-1 ± 7√(97))/2

What is an arithmatic progression?

An arithmetic progression is a sequence of numbers in which each term after the first is obtained by adding a fixed constant to the preceding term. The fixed constant is called the common difference, denoted by d.

Let the three numbers in the GP be a/r, a, and ar, where a is the middle term.

Then we have:

a/r + a + ar = 26 (sum of GP)

(a/r + 5) + (a + 9) + (ar + 5) = 3(a + 4) (sum of AP)

Simplifying the second equation, we get:

a(r - 1) = 3

Substituting this into the first equation, we get:

a/r + a + ar = 26

1/r + 1 + r = 26/a

r^2 + r - 26/a = 0

Solving for r using the quadratic formula, we get:

r = (-1 ± √(1 + 104/a))/2

Since r > 0 (because the terms are in GP), we take the positive root:

r = (-1 + √(1 + 104/a))/2

Substituting this into the equation a(r - 1) = 3, we get:

a(-1 + √(1 + 104/a))/2 - a = 3

-a + a √(1 + 104/a) - 2 = 0

a √(1 + 104/a) = -a + 2

a² (1 + 104/a) = a² - 4a + 4

104a = 4a² - 4a + 4

a² - a + 1 = 26

(a - 1/2)² + 3/4 = 26

(a - 1/2)² = 97/4

a - 1/2 = ±√(97)/2

a = (1 ± √(97))/2

Since the terms are in GP, we can use the value of a to find the other two terms:

a/r = (1 ± √(97))/(2(-1 + √(1 + 104/a))/2) = (-1 ± √(97))/2

ar = (1 ± √(97))/(2(-1 - √(1 + 104/a))/2) = (-1 ± 7√(97))/2

Therefore, the three numbers are:

(-1 + √(97))/2, (-1 ± √(97))/2, (-1 ± 7√(97))/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The margin of error for a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all employees dissatisfied with their jobs, based on a survey of 200 employees where 44% reported dissatisfaction, is  0.068.

We can use the formula for the margin of error for a proportion:

ME = zsqrt((p_hat(1-p_hat))/n)

where z is the z-score associated with the desired level of confidence (90% in this case), p_hat is the sample proportion (0.44), n is the sample size (200), and sqrt is the square root.

From a standard normal distribution table, the z-score for a 90% confidence level is approximately 1.645.

Plugging in the values, we get:

ME = 1.645sqrt((0.44(1-0.44))/200)

ME ≈ 0.068

So the margin of error for a 90% confidence interval is approximately 0.068 or 0.068/1= 0.068 = 0.068 = 6.8% (rounded to 3 decimal places).

The IQR is the best measure of variability for this data set, and its value is 4.

What is median?

Median is a measure of central tendency that represents the middle value in a dataset when the values are arranged in order of magnitude.

The correct answer is:

The IQR is the best measure of variability, and it equals 4.

The box plot shows the median (represented by the line in the box), the interquartile range (IQR) (represented by the length of the box), and the range (represented by the lines outside the box).

The IQR is the range between the first quartile (Q1) and the third quartile (Q3) of the data set, which contains the middle 50% of the data. In this case, the box extends from 17 to 21, indicating that Q1 is 17 and Q3 is 21. Therefore, the IQR is the difference between Q3 and Q1, which is 21-17=4.

The range is the difference between the maximum and minimum values in the data set, which is 27-10=17. However, the range can be affected by outliers and is not as robust as the IQR.

Therefore, the IQR is the best measure of variability for this data set, and its value is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a study sample is representative of the target population, it allows for the results to be generalizable, meaning they can be applied to the broader population.

This is an important aspect of research, as it ensures the study's findings are relevant and useful beyond the specific sample studied.

When a study sample shows representativeness, it means that the sample accurately reflects the characteristics of the target population.

In this case, the study is most likely generalizable, with results that can be applied to the target population.
To achieve representativeness, researchers often use random sampling techniques, which help minimize the potential for sampling bias.

Sampling bias occurs when certain groups within the target population are over- or under-represented in the sample, which can lead to inaccurate conclusions.

In contrast, if a study used strict inclusion and exclusion criteria to limit the sample size or relied on specific inclusion criteria, it could result in a sample that is not representative of the target population.

Let us consider V be the volume of the cube,

And s be the length of one edge of the cube.

Volume of a cube is equal to,

V = s^3

To find how fast the volume is changing with respect to time,

Use the chain rule of differentiation,

dV/dt = dV/ds × ds/dt

where dV/dt is the rate of change of volume with respect to time,

dV/ds is the rate of change of volume with respect to the length of one edge of the cube,

And ds/dt is the rate of change of the length of one edge of the cube with respect to time.

ds/dt = 2 cm/s,

find dV/dt when s = 50 cm.

First, find dV/ds,

dV/ds = 3s^2

Then, we can plug in s = 50 cm,

dV/ds = 3(50)^2

          = 7500 cm^2

Finally, we can plug in the values we have to find dV/dt,

dV/dt = (dV/ds) × (ds/dt)
