Olive weights are classified according to a unique set of adjectives implying great size. For example, the mean weight of olives classified as "Colossal" is 7.7 grams. Suppose a particular company’s crop of "Colossal" olives is approximately Normally distributed with a mean of 7.7 grams and a standard deviation of 0.2 grams. Which of the following represents the probability that the mean weight of a random sample of 3 olives from this population is greater than 8 grams?

a. 0.0970
b. 0.9953
c. 0.0668
d. 0.0047
e. 0.1932

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

d. 0.0047

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore 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 pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

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 [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

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

Population:

We have that [tex]\mu = 7.7, \sigma = 0.2[/tex]

Sample of 3:

[tex]n = 3, s = \frac{0.2}{\sqrt{3}} = 0.1155[/tex]

Which of the following represents the probability that the mean weight of a random sample of 3 olives from this population is greater than 8 grams?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 8. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{8 - 7.7}{0.1155}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.6[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.6[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9953

1 - 0.9953 = 0.0047

The probability is given by option d.

Answer 2

You can calculate the z score for the specified sample and then use the z tables to find the p value(probability) needed.

The probability that the mean weight of a random sample of 3 olives from this population is greater than 8 grams is given by

Option d : 0.0047

How to find the z score for a sample taken from a normal distribution holding random variate?

Suppose that the sample is of size 'n', then we have the z score(we are converting random variable X to standard random variable Z) as:

[tex]Z = \dfrac{X - \overline{x}}{s} = \dfrac{X - \mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

where [tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is mean of the sample

s is the standard deviation of the sample,

and we used the central limit theorem which says that a sample from a normally distributed population with [tex]mean = \mu[/tex] and standard deviation = [tex]\sigma[/tex] can have its mean approximated by population mean and its standard deviation approximated by [tex]s = \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

Using the data given to find the intended probability

Let the weight of the the olives for the given crop of olives of a particular company for taken random sample is given by X (a random variable)

Then, we have:

[tex]X \sim N(7.7, 0.2)[/tex]

where

[tex]\mu = 7.7, \sigma = 0.2[/tex]

Thus, we have:

[tex]\overline{x} = \mu, s = \sigma/\sqrt{n} = 0.2/\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Using the given facts, we get the needed probability as:

[tex]P( X> 8)[/tex] sample size n  = 3)

Then, using the z score, we get):

[tex]P(X > 8) = 1 - P(X \leq 8) = 1 - P(Z \leq \dfrac{8 - 7.7}{0.2/\sqrt{3}})\\\\P(X > 8)=1- P(Z \leq \dfrac{0.3\sqrt{3}}{0.2}) = 1- P(Z \leq 1.5 \times \sqrt{3} )\\\\P(X > 8) = 1 - P(Z \leq 2.59) = 1- 0.9952 \approx 0.0047[/tex]

Thus,

The probability that the mean weight of a random sample of 3 olives from this population is greater than 8 grams is given by

Option d : 0.0047

Step-by-step explanation:

Gauss has derived a formula to solve addition of arithmatic series to find the sum of the numbers from 1 to 100 as follows:

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + … + 98 + 99 + 100

First he has splitted the numbers into two groups (1 to 50 and 51 to 100), then add these together vertically to get a sum of 101.

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + … + 48 + 49 + 50

100 + 99 + 98 + 97 + 96 + … + 53 + 52 + 51

1 + 100 = 101

2 + 99 = 101

3 + 98 = 101

:

:

:

:

48 + 53 = 101

49 + 52 = 101

50 + 51 = 101

It was realized by him that final total will be fifty times of 101 means:

50(101) = 5050.

Based on this, Gauss has derived formula as:

The sequence of numbers (1, 2, 3, … , 100) is arithmetic and we are looking for the sum of this series of sequence. As per Gauss, the special formula derived by him can be used to find the sum of this series:

S is the sum of the series and n is the number of terms in the series, in present case, from 1 to 100, Hence

As per the Gauss formula, the sum of numbers from 1 to 100 will be 5050.

Find the length of AM

Find the length of OM

Find the length of the string of each person

Answers

Answer:

The triangle formed is Equilateral triangle.

I have taken Perpendicular = P ( you can say M)

√400 - x²  = OP (OM)

√3 x = AP (AM)

The length of the string of each person = 20√3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

As given , circular park with radius 20m

Let , Ankur sit on boundary point A

       Syed sit on boundary point S

       David sit on boundary point D

As given,

Ankur, Syed and David are sitting at equal distance on its boundary

⇒AS = AD = SD

Let AS = AD = SD = 2x

As the sides are equal

The triangle formed is Equilateral triangle.

Now,

Draw a perpendicular on the side SD

Let OP be the perpendicular

⇒SP = PD = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]SD = [tex]\frac{1}{2}. 2x = x[/tex]

So, we get

SP = x , PD = x

Now, Draw the line OS and OA

AS , we can see that ,

ΔOPS and ΔAPS are right angle triangle ,

So , apply Pythagoras theorem to ΔOPS and ΔAPS

In ΔOPS

OS² = OP² + PS²

⇒20² = OP² + x²

⇒400 - x² = OP²

⇒√400 - x²  = OP

Now,

In ΔAPS

AS² = AP² + PS²

⇒(2x)² = AP² + x²

⇒4x² - x² = AP²

⇒√3x²  = AP

⇒√3 x = AP

Now,

We can see that,

AP = AO + OP

⇒√3 x  = 20 + √400 - x²

⇒√3 x  - 20 + = √400 - x²

Squaring both side

⇒(√3 x  - 20 )²= (√400 - x²)²

⇒3x² + 400 - 40√3 x = 400 - x²

⇒3x² + x² =  40√3 x

⇒4x² = 40√3 x

⇒x = 10√3

∴ we get

AS = SD = AD = 2(10√3) = 20√3 m

⇒The length of the string of each person = 20√3 m

Answers

40 hours per week and earn a salary of 600$

Explanation I got it right on edge

As per the given ratio comparison, We can say that the Second job generates the most income and that position makes him $5 per hour.

What is ratio?

The ratio can be defined as the number that can be used to represent one quantity as a percentage of another. Only when the two numbers in a ratio have the same unit can they be compared. Ratios are used to compare two objects.

Given, An employee working 40 hours per week earns a salary of $600 per week but gets a second job offer to work 40 hours per week, hourly at $20 an hour.

For the first job, we will calculate the ratio of the employee Salary to the working hours to compare with the salary of the Second job:

Since,

He makes $600 per week for working 40 hours

Thus,

His hourly salary = 600/40

His hourly salary will be $15.

For the second job, it is already mentioned that the employee gets $20 per hour for the same working hours.

therefore, the Second job generates the most income and that position makes him $5 per hour.

Answer:

Since there is no initial condition, the exact value of v cannot be determined, but you can set the equation up for a general evaluation of the situation.

s = 1/2a^2*v+c

First you need to subtract c from both sides to get

s-c = 1/2a^2*v

then you can just divide both sides by 1/2a^2 to get v

(2(s-c))/a^2=v

when dividing a fraction, such as 1/2, make sure to keep in mind that you're really multiplying the flipped version, so that dividing by 1/2 means multiplying by 2.

0.8340

Step-by-step explanation:

The aim of this question is to find the probability that the student makes it to the second class prior to when the lecture commences.

Provided that A, B, and C are independent of each other from the full complete question.

Then; we want P(A + C < B)

So A [tex]\sim[/tex] N (2, 1.5)

B [tex]\sim[/tex] N (10, 1)

C [tex]\sim[/tex] N (6, 1)

P(A + C - B < 0)

Since they are normally distributed( i.e. A + C - B)

Then;

E(A + C -B) = E(A) + E(C) - (B)

E(A + C -B) = 2 - 10 + 6

E(A + C -B) =  -2

Var(A+C -B) = Var(A) + Var (B) + Var (C)

Var(A + C -B) = (1.5)² + (1)² + (1)²

Var(A + C -B) = 4.25

The standard deviation = [tex]\sqrt{4.25}[/tex]

The standard deviation = 2.06155

[tex]P(A+C-B) = p \Big (Z < \dfrac{0-(-2)}{2.06155} \Big )[/tex]

Quick answer :

[tex]\color{plum}m∠ABC = 71° [/tex]

Steps to derive the correct answer :Opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal.Angles on the same side are supplementary.

Which means :

m∠ABC = ∠ADC (opposite angles of a parallelogram)

m∠ABC :

= 37° + 34°

= 71°

Thus, the measure of ∠ABC = 71°

Let us find the measures of the other angles as well :

m∠BCD + m∠ADC = 180°

m∠BCD + 71 = 180°

m∠BCD = 180 - 71

m∠BCD = 109°

Thus, the measure of∠BCD = 109°

m∠BCD = ∠BAD (opposite angles of a parallelogram)

m∠BAD = 109°

Thus, the measure of ∠BAD = 109°

Therefore, m∠ABC = 71°

Answer:

109°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given isosceles trapezoid AB = CD

Angles B and C are congruent and angles A and D are congruent.

A and B, as well as C and D sum to 180 as supplementary angles, therefore:

m∠ABC = 180° - ∠A = 180 - ∠D = 180° - (34°+37°) = 180° - 71° = 109°
