A sample of 125 pieces of yarn had mean breaking strength 6.1 N and standard deviation 0.7 N. A new batch of yarn was made, using new raw materials from a different vendor. In a sample of 75 pieces of yarn from the new batch, the mean breaking strength was 5.8 N and the standard deviation was 1.0 N. Find a 90% confidence interval for the difference in mean breaking strength between the two types of yarn.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the difference in mean breaking strength between the two types of yarn is (0.08N, 0.52N).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

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

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Subtraction of normal variables:

When we subtract two normal variables, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

A sample of 125 pieces of yarn had mean breaking strength 6.1 N and standard deviation 0.7 N.

This means that [tex]\mu_1 = 6.1, s_1 = \frac{0.7}{\sqrt{125}} = 0.0626[/tex]

In a sample of 75 pieces of yarn from the new batch, the mean breaking strength was 5.8 N and the standard deviation was 1.0 N.

This means that [tex]\mu_2 = 5.8, s_2 = \frac{1}{\sqrt{75}} = 0.1155[/tex]

Distribution of the difference:

[tex]\mu = \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 6.1 - 5.8 = 0.3[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_1^2+s_2^2} = \sqrt{0.0626^2+0.1155^2} = 0.1314[/tex]

Confidence interval:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.05[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.05 = 0.95[/tex], so Z = 1.645.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = zs[/tex]

[tex]M = 1.645*0.1314 = 0.22[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 0.3 - 0.22 = 0.08N

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 0.3 + 0.22 = 0.52N

The 90% confidence interval for the difference in mean breaking strength between the two types of yarn is (0.08N, 0.52N).

b. 2.60
c. 27.50

Answers

Answer:

The test statistic for this test is: z = -2.60, option b.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

H0: p = 0.50 vs HA : p≠0.50

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.5, \sigma = \sqrt{0.5*0.5} = 0.5[/tex]

A random sample of 900 13- to 17-year-olds found that 411 had a computer in their room with Internet access.

This means that [tex]n = 900, X = \frac{411}{900} = 0.4567[/tex]

Value of the test-statistic:

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

[tex]z = \frac{0.4567 - 0.5}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{900}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -2.598[/tex]

The test statistic for this test is: z = -2.60, option b(should be).

You would do 92 x 12 which is 1104 for the monthly payment, then do 1104 - 890 which is 214. So you would save 214$

Answer: $214

Step-by-step explanation:

First find how much you would have to pay if you payed $92 for 12 months. It would be 1104 (12 times 92)

Then you have to substract how much it would cot to pay by cash rather than paying $92 for 12 months. ( 1104-890 = 214)

Your answer is $214. You would save $214 if you pay by cash.

Jim and Jabu join a gym. Jim's gym take R150 deposit,and he pays R120 monthly. Jabu's gym takes no deposit, but his monthly payment is R150. They compare their total payments after four months, after five months and after six months.

3.1 Reasoning
3.2 Number sentence​

Answers

Answer:

What should I answer?

Step-by-step explanation:

Jim's payment is more than Jabu's after four months and Jabu's payment is more than Jim’s after five months.

It is given that Jim’s gym takes a deposit of 150 and a monthly charge of 120.

Let x be the number of months for which both are paying the charges.

Then, Jim's total charge=150+120x.

Now, Jabu’s gym takes no deposit and takes a monthly charge of 150.

Jabu’s gym total charge=150x

Substitute x=4 in the obtained expression to determine the total payment of both after four months.

Jim's total charge=150+120(4)

=150+480

=620

​Jabu’s gym total charge=150(4)

=600

So, Jim's payment is more than Jabu after four months.

Substitute x=5 in the obtained expression to determine the total payment of both after five months.  

Jim's total charge=150+120(5)

=150+600

=750

Jabu’s gym total charge=150(5)

=750

​So, Jabu's payment is more than Jim’s after five months.

Therefore, Jim's payment is more than Jabu's after four months and Jabu's payment is equal to Jim’s after five months.

Someone has offered you a wager on the outcome of a die roll. You will pay him
$100 for each time the standard, six-sided die lands on one, and he will pay you $30 for each time the die lands on any other number. Without your awareness, he has loaded the die so that it has a 40% change to land on the number one, and besides
that an equal change to land on any of the values 2 through 6.

What is the expected value of one round of gambling in this scenario?

-$12
-$32
$2
-$22

Answers

Answer:  Choice D)  -$22

You'll lose on average $22 per roll.

====================================================

Explanation:

Normally there is a 1/6 chance to land on any given side of a standard die, but your friend has loaded the die in a way to make it have a 40% chance to land on "1" and an equal chance to land on anything else. Since there's a 40% chance to land on "1", this leaves 100% - 40% = 60% for everything else.  

Let's define two events

A = event of landing on "1".B = event of landing on anything else (2 through 6).

So far we know that P(A) = 0.40 and P(B) = 0.60; I'm using the decimal form of each percentage.

The net value of event A, which I'll denote as V(A), is -100 since you pay $100 when event A occurs. So we'll write V(A) = -100. Also, we know that V(B) = 30 and this value is positive because you receive $30 if event B occurs.

To recap things so far, we have the following:

P(A) = 0.40P(B) = 0.60V(A) = -100V(B) = 30

Multiply the corresponding probability and net value items together

P(A)*V(A) = 0.40*(-100) = -40P(B)*V(B) = 0.60*30 = 18

Then add up those products:

-40+18 = -22

This is the expected value, and it represents the average amount of money you earn for each dice roll. So you'll lose on average about $22. Because the expected value is not zero, this means this game is not mathematically fair.

This does not mean that any single die roll you would lose $22; instead it means that if you played the game say 1000 or 10,000 times, then averaging out the wins and losses will get you close to a loss of $22.
