Bags of flour at a local grocery store have a mean weight of 83 ounces with a standard deviation of 2 ounces. Which weight represents the 65th percentile?
A.82.2 ounces
B.82.5 ounces
C.83.5 ounces
D.83.8 ounces

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

D.83.8 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

The z score for 65th percentile = 0.385

Mean weight of 83 ounces with a standard deviation of 2 ounces

The formula for calculating a z-score is z = (x-μ)/σ

where x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation

x = ??

Hence:

0.385 = (x - 83)/2

Cross Multiply

0.385 × 2 = x - 83

0.77 = x - 83

x = 83 + 0.77

x = 83.77 ounces

Approximately = 83.8 ounces

Answer 2

Answer:

D.83.8 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

The z score for 65th percentile = 0.385

Mean weight of 83 ounces with a standard deviation of 2 ounces

The formula for calculating a z-score is z = (x-μ)/σ

where x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation

x = ??

Hence:

0.385 = (x - 83)/2

Cross Multiply

0.385 × 2 = x - 83

0.77 = x - 83

x = 83 + 0.77

x = 83.77 ounces

Approximately = 83.8 ounces

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  54.5868

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiplicands each have 2 digits to the right of the decimal point, so the product will have 2+2 = 4 digits to the right of the decimal point. The correct placement is ...

  54.5868

__

Another way to tell is that the product is in the neighborhood of 3·15 = 45, which is nowhere near 545 or 5458 or any higher value.

Answer: 54.5868

Since 3 x 15 is already 45, now we have to multiply the decimals, but we must put a point.

.54 x .42 = 9.5868

45 + 9.5868 = 54.5868.

Answer:

a. When you have two parallel lines cut by a transversal, angles 4 and 6 become same side interior angles, meaning they add to 180 degrees. Alex's mistake is that he thought angles 4 and 6 were corresponding angles, which are equal to each other (corresponding angles would be like angles 2 and 6. they are in the same place in relation to the transversal and the parallel lines. if you moved line l down, angle 2 would be on the same spot as angle 6, so they are corresponding angles).

b. angles 4 = 140 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Alex thought that angles 6 and 4 were corresponding angles, however, they are same side interior angles. Because two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, we can conclude that angles 4 and 6 are same side interior angles.

Same side interior angles are angles that add to 180, so you would do 180-40 to get angle 4. the measure of angle 4 would be 140 degrees (the answer to b).

When you were playing the integer game the first two cards that were selected were -8 and -10. What is the value in your hand?

Write an equation to justify your answer

what is the distance of the sum from -8

Answers

Answer:

The value in your hand is -18

let the value be x, then the equation is:

x = -8 + (-10)

x = - 8 - 10

x = - 10

the distance of the sum from -8 is the distance between -8 & -10, i.e -8 - (-10) = 2.

The pilot of an airplane flying at an elevation of 5000 feet sights two towers that are 300 feet apart. If the angle of depression to the tower closer to him is 30, determine the angle of depression to the second tower.

Answers

Answer: 29.2 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Elevation of the pilot = 50,000 feet

Elevation of the two towers = 300 feet apart.

Depression of closer tower = 30

Solution:

The angle of depression to the second tower is x

tanx = 5000/(5000*√(3)+300)

x=29.2

Therefore the angle of depression of the second tower is at 29.2 degree

Answer:

29.2°

Step-by-step explanation:

From diagram (b)

Tan θ= opp/adj

Where θ = 30°

opp = 5000ft

adj = ?

tan 30° = 5000/x

x tan30° = 5000

x = 5000/tan 30

x = 5000/0.577

x = 8665.5ft

From diagram c

tan θ = opp/adj

Where θ = ?

opp = 5000

adj = 300+x

x= 8665.5

tan θ = 5000/300+8665.5

tan θ = 5000/8965.5

tan θ = 0.55769

θ = arch tan 0.55769

θ = 29.147

θ= 29.2°

Please hurry this is on my exam

Answers

This is about absolute value inequalities.

The set of possible values of x that make the statement true are; x = {-2, -1, 0, 1}

Let the number in the question be x.

We are told that when it is multiplied by 3 and 1 added to it, it is between - 8 and 7. This means it is greater than -8 but less than 7.

Thus;

3x + 1 > -8  - - - (eq 1)

3x + 1 < 7  - - - (eq 2)

Let's find range of x from eq 1;

3x + 1 > -8

Subtract 1 from both sides to get;

3x > -9

x > -9/3

x > -3

Similarly, let's find the range of x from eq 2;

3x + 1 < 7

Subtract 1 from both sides to get;

3x < 7 - 1

3x < 6

x < 6/3

x < 2

Thus, we can write that;

-3 < x < 2

Thus, the set of possible values of x are; x = {-2, -1, 0, 1}

An environmental engineer is tasked with determining whether a power plant cooling system is heating the water it uses more than allowed by environmental regulations. They measure water temperatures at the cooling system input and the cooling system output for several different days in several different seasons. A list containing these measurements is below:


Sample Input Temp (deg F) Output Temp (deg F)
1 57.6 65.1
2 68.9 74.4
3 68.1 74.7
4 47.7 55.4
5 48.1 51
6 67.2 71.9
7 69.9 79.2
8 48.1 57.2
9 35 41.4
10 56 61
11 44.3 50.8
12 65 70.5
13 48.3 56.9
14 54.9 61.7
15 60.4 67.3

Do a statistical analysis on this data to determine if the temperature change between the input and output of the cooling system is different than 6 degrees.

1. What does your analysis indicate?

a. The cooling system changes the temperature of the water by an amount different than 6 degrees.
b. The cooling system changes the temperature of the water by 6 degrees.

2. What is the P-Value associated with your decision above?

a. 0.001
b. 0.026
c. 0.049
d. 0.070
e. 0.110
f. 0.131

h. 0.201
i. 0.278
j. 0.289

Answers

Answer:

1

The correct option is  b

2

The correct option is  h

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The sample size is  n  = 15

   The difference in population proportion is [tex]d = 6[/tex]

Generally the sample mean of the input temperature is  

     [tex]\= x_1  =  \frac{\sum x_i }{n}[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= x_1  =  \frac{57.6 + 68.9 + \cdots +60.4  }{15}[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= x_1  = 62.57 [/tex]

Generally the sample mean of the output temperature is  

     [tex]\= x_2  =  \frac{\sum x_i }{n}[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= x_2  =  \frac{65.1 + 74.4 + \cdots +67.3 }{15}[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= x_2 = 55.97 [/tex]

Generally the difference of the sample mean of the input temperature and that of the output temperature is  

     [tex]\= d  =  \= x_1  - \= x_2[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= d  =  62.57 -55.97[/tex]

=>  [tex]\= d  =  6.6[/tex]

Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as

     [tex]s_d  =  \sqrt{\frac{\sum(d_1 - \= d )^2}{n} }[/tex]

=>  [tex]s_d  =  \sqrt{\frac{([57.6- 65.1]- 6.6)^2+ ([68.9 - 74.4]- 6.6)^2 + \cdots +  ([60.4 -  67.3]- 6.6)^2 }{15} }[/tex]

=>  [tex]s_d  = 1.732 [/tex

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

     [tex]t  =  \frac{ d - \= d  }{ \frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

=>   [tex]t  =  \frac{ 6-6.6  }{ \frac{1.732}{\sqrt{15} } }[/tex]

=>   [tex]t  =  1.3417[/tex]

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

    [tex]df =  n -  1[/tex]

=>  [tex]df =  15 -  1[/tex]

=>  [tex]df =  14[/tex]

Generally the probability of t obtained from the t - distribution table at a degree of freedom of  [tex]df =  14[/tex] is  

      [tex]P(t >1.3417 )  =  0.10052569[/tex]

Generally the p-value is mathematically represented as

      [tex]p-value  =  2 *  P(t >  1.3417)[/tex]

=>    [tex]p-value  =  2 *   0.10052569[/tex]

=>   [tex]p-value  =  0.201 [/tex]

From the values obtained we see that [tex]p-value  >  \alpha[/tex] hence

The decision rule is  

Fail to  reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is  

The cooling system changes the temperature of the water by 6 degrees.

Suppose you have information about average heights of a random sample of airline passengers. The mode is 65 inches, the median is 72 inches, and the mean is 70 inches. To convert the data into centimeters, multiply each data value by 2.54. What are the values of the mode, median, and mean in centimeters?

Answers

Answer: mode = 165.10 cm, median = 182.88 cm, mean = 177.80 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

mode = 65*2.54 = 165.10 cm

median = 72*2.54 = 182.88 cm

mean = 70*2.54 = 177.80 cm

The values in cm are:

Mode = 162.56 cm

Median = 182.88 cm

Mean = 177.8 cm

Given,

The mode is 65 inches, the median is 72 inches, and the mean is 70 inches.

We need to convert the data into centimeters by multiplying each data value by 2.54 and find the values of the mode, median, and mean in centimeters.

How many cm in one inch?

There is 2.54 cm in one inch.

Example:

If we want to find cm in 4 inches.

We just multiply 4 with 2.54 cm.

2.54 cm = 1 inch

4 x 2.54 cm = 4 x 1 inch

10.16 cm = 4 inches

We have,

We know that,

1 inch = 2.54 cm

Mode = 65 inches

1 inch = 2.54 cm

64 inches = 64 x 2.54 cm = 162.56 cm

Median = 72 inches

72 inches = 72 x 2.54 cm = 182.88 cm

Mean = 70 inches

70 inches = 70 x 2.54 cm = 177.8 cm

Thus the values in cm are:

Mode = 162.56 cm

Median = 182.88 cm

Mean = 177.8 cm
