Required:
Construct a stem-and-leaf display for these data. Calculate the median and quartiles of these data.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]Median = 90.4[/tex]

[tex]Q_1 = 88.6[/tex]

[tex]Q_3 = 92.2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The above data

Required

- A stem and leaf display

- The median

- The quartiles

First, determine the range of the data

[tex]Smallest = 83.4[/tex]

[tex]Highest = 100.3[/tex]

Next, group each dataset base on common whole numbers.

So, we have:

[tex]83.4[/tex]

[tex]84.3\ 84.3[/tex]

[tex]85.3[/tex]

[tex]86.7\ 86.7\ 86.7[/tex]

[tex]87.4\ 87.5\ 87.6\ 87.7\ 87.8\ 87.9[/tex]

[tex]88.2\ 88.3\ 88.3\ 88.3\ 88.4\ 88.5\ 88.5\ 88.6\ 88.6\ 88.7\ 88.9[/tex]

[tex]89.0\ 89.2\ 89.3\ 89.3\ 89.6\ 89.7\ 89.8\ 89.8\ 89.9\ 89.9[/tex]

[tex]90.0\ 90.1\ 90.1\ 90.1\ 90.3\ 90.4\ 90.4\ 90.4\ 90.5\ 90.6\ 90.7\ 90.8\ 90.9[/tex]

[tex]91.0\ 91.0\ 91.0\ 91.1\ 91.1\ 91.1\ 91.2\ 91.2\ 91.2\ \ 91.5\ 91.6\ 91.6\ 91.8\ 91.8[/tex]

[tex]92.2\ 92.2\ 92.2\ 92.3\ 92.6\ 92.7\ 92.7\ 92.7[/tex]

[tex]93.0\ 93.2\ 93.3\ 93.3\ 93.4\ 93.7[/tex]

[tex]94.2\ 94.2\ 94.4\ 94.7[/tex]

[tex]96.1\ 96.5[/tex]

[tex]98.8[/tex]

[tex]100.3[/tex]

Next, we construct the stem and leaf plot.

The whole numbers will be the stem while the decimal parts will be the leaf.

So, we have:

[tex]\begin{array}{ccc}{Stem} & {} & {Leaf} & {83} & {|} & {.4} & {84} & {|} & {.3\ .3} & {85} & {|} & {.3} & {86} & {|} & {.7\ .7\ .7} & {87} &{|} & {.4\ .5\ .6\ .7\ .8\ .9} & {88} & {|} & {.2\ .3\ .3\ .3\ .4\ .5\ .5\ .6\ .6\ .7\ .9} &{89} & {|} & {.0\ .2\ .3\ .3\ .6\ .7\ .8\ .8\ .9\ .9} & {90} & {|} &{.0\ .1\ .1\ .1\ .3\ .4\ .4\ .4\ .5\ .6\ .7\ .8\ .9} & {91} &{|}&{.0\ .0\ .0\ .1\ .1\ .1\ .2\ .2\ .2\ .5\ .6\ .6\ .8\ .8} &{92} &{|} &{.2\ .2\ .2\ .3\ .6\ .7\ .7\ .7} \ \end{array}[/tex]

  [tex]\begin{array}{ccc} {93} & {|} & {.0\ .2\ .3\ .3\ .4\ .7} & {94} &{|} & {.2\ .2\ .4\ .7} &{96} & {|} & {.1\ .5} & {98} & {|} & {.8} & {100} &{|} &{.3} \ \end{array}[/tex]

From the above plot,

[tex]n = 83[/tex]

The median is calculated as:

[tex]Median = \frac{n+1}{2}th[/tex]

[tex]Median = \frac{83+1}{2}th[/tex]

[tex]Median = \frac{84}{2}th[/tex]

[tex]Median = 42nd[/tex]

i.e. the median is at the 42nd position.

From the above stem and leaf plot.

The 42nd position is at stem 90 and the leaf  .4

So the median is:

[tex]Median = 90.4[/tex]

The lower quartile (Q) is calculated as:

[tex]Q_1 = \frac{n+1}{4}th[/tex]

[tex]Q_1 = \frac{83+1}{4}th[/tex]

[tex]Q_1 = \frac{84}{4}th[/tex]

[tex]Q_1 = 21st[/tex]

i.e. the lower quartile is at the 21st position.

From the above stem and leaf plot.

The 42nd position is at stem 88 and the leaf .6

So the lower quartile is:

[tex]Q_1 = 88.6[/tex]

The upper quartile (Q3) is calculated as:

[tex]Q_3 = 3 * \frac{n+1}{4}th[/tex]

[tex]Q_3 = 3 * \frac{83+1}{4}th[/tex]

[tex]Q_3 = 3 * \frac{84}{4}th[/tex]

[tex]Q_3 = 3 * 21th[/tex]

[tex]Q_3 = 63rd[/tex]

i.e. the upper quartile is at the 63rd position.

From the above stem and leaf plot.

The 63rd position is at stem 92 and the leaf .2

So the upper quartile is:

[tex]Q_3 = 92.2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A manufacturer must test that his bolts are 4.00 cm long when they come off the assembly line. He must recalibrate his machines if the bolts are too long or too short. After sampling 196 randomly selected bolts off the assembly line, he calculates the sample mean to be 4.14 cm. He knows that the population standard deviation is 0.83 cm. Assuming a level of significance of 0.05, is there sufficient evidence to show that the manufacturer needs to recalibrate the machines? State the null and alternative hypotheses for the test.

Answers

Answer:

The null hypothesis is [tex]H_o: \mu = 4[/tex].

The alternate hypothesis is [tex]H_a: \mu \neq 4[/tex]

The pvalue of the test is 0.0182 < 0.05, which means that there is sufficient evidence to show that the manufacturer needs to recalibrate the machines.

Step-by-step explanation:

A manufacturer must test that his bolts are 4.00 cm long when they come off the assembly line.

This means that the null hypothesis is that they are 4.00 cm long, that is:

[tex]H_o: \mu = 4[/tex]

At the alternate hypothesis we test if it is different. So

[tex]H_a: \mu \neq 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.

4 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 4[/tex]

After sampling 196 randomly selected bolts off the assembly line, he calculates the sample mean to be 4.14 cm.

This means that [tex]n = 196, X = 4.14[/tex]

He knows that the population standard deviation is 0.83 cm.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 0.83[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

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

[tex]z = \frac{4.14 - 4}{\frac{0.83}{\sqrt{196}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = 2.36[/tex]

Pvalue of the test and decision:

The pvalue of the test is the probability that the sample mean is different by at least 4.14 - 4 = 0.14 from the target value, which is P(|z| > 2.36), which is 2 multiplied by the pvalue of z = -2.36.

Looking at the z-table, z = -2.36 has a pvalue of 0.0091

2*0.0091 = 0.0182

The pvalue of the test is 0.0182 < 0.05, which means that there is sufficient evidence to show that the manufacturer needs to recalibrate the machines.

What is trigonometry?

The branch of mathematics that sets up a relationship between the sides and the angles of the right-angle triangle is termed trigonometry.

The trigonometric functions, also known as a circular, angle, or goniometric functions in mathematics, are real functions that link the angle of a right-angled triangle to the ratios of its two side lengths.

Given that Roger is standing next to a tree where his shadow is 3 feet long and the shadow of the tree is 18 feet long. If Roger is 4.5 feet tall.

The height of the tree will be calculated as,

Height = ( 18 x 4.5 ) / 3

Height = 6 x 4.5

Height = 27 ft

Hence, the height will be 27 ft.

Is 3/4 closer to 0 or 1?

Answers

Answer:

It is closer to 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 is 1/4 away from 1, whereas 0 is 3/4 away from 3/4. So, 1 is closer.

The fraction 3/4 is closer to 1.

We have,

To determine whether the fraction 3/4 is closer to 0 or 1, we can compare the distances between 3/4 and 0, and between 3/4 and 1.

The distance between 3/4 and 0 is 3/4.

The absolute value of the difference is |3/4 - 0| = 3/4.

The distance between 3/4 and 1 is 1 - 3/4 = 1/4.

Since the distance between 3/4 and 1/4 (which is 1/4) is smaller than the distance between 3/4 and 0 (which is 3/4), we can conclude that 3/4 is closer to 1 than to 0.

In other words, if we were to plot the fractions 0, 3/4, and 1 on a number line, the distance between 3/4 and 1 would be smaller than the distance between 3/4 and 0.

Therefore,

The fraction 3/4 is closer to 1.
