A reporter for a student newspaper is writing an article on the cost of off-campus housing. A sample was selected of 10 one-bedroom units within a half-mile of campus and the rents paid. The sample mean is $550 and the sample standard deviation is $60.05. Provide a 95% confidence interval estimate of the mean rent per month for the population of one-bedroom units within a half-mile of campus. Assume that population is normally distributed.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(507.05, 592.95)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

sample mean = $550, sample standard deviation S = $60.05

95% confidence interval , n = 10

For 95% confidence interval for the mean

mean ± M.E.

where M.E. is margin of error = [tex]t_{n-1}, \alpha/2\times\frac{S}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

Substituting the values in above equation

[tex]=t_{10-1}, 0.05/2\times\frac{60.05}{\sqrt{10} }[/tex]

= 2.62×18.99

=42.955

= 550±42.95

=(507.05, 592.95)

Which of the following would not be an example of a compound event?
(1) having a coin land on heads three consecutive times
(2) pulling a king out of a deck of cards
(3) missing two free throws in a row
(4) answering four true/false questions correctly by guessing

Answers

The only option that is not a compound event is; (2) pulling a king out of a deck of cards

How to identify a compound event?

Compound probability is defined as a mathematical term that relates to the likeliness of two independent events occurring.

Thus, a simple event has only one outcome while  a compound event involves the probability of more than one outcome

1) For a coin to land on heads three consecutive times means that there can only be three possible independent outcome  and so this is a compound event.

2) Pulling a king out of a deck of cards is a simple event and not compound because it has only one outcome.

3) This is a compound event because we are dealing with two independent probabilities.

4) This is a compound event because we are dealing with two independent events which are true or false answers.

Please help - How many whole months will it take for a motorbike valued at £2550 to depreciate to less than £1200 if depreciation is at a rate of 5% per month?

Answers

Therefore the answer is 27 or more months to depreciate to less than £1200 at a rate of 5% per month.

What is depreciation?

Depreciation is a phrase that covers two different elements of the same idea: first, the real decline in an asset's fair value, such as the annual decline in the worth of industrial equipment.

What is asset and liabilities?

Your balance sheet may be broken down into two categories, assets and liabilities, in its most basic form. A company's assets are any possessions that have the potential to provide future financial gain. Your debts to other people are called liabilities. In other words, assets increase your wealth while obligations decrease it.

The value of the motorbike will decrease by 5/100 = 0.05 (or 5%) each month. So, to find out how many months it will take for the value of the motorbike to decrease from £2550 to less than £1200, you need to solve the following equation:

£2550 - (0.05 * x) < £1200

where x is the number of months.

You can re-arrange the equation to solve for x:

x > (2550 - 1200) / 0.05

x > (1350) / 0.05

x > 27

So it will take the motorbike 27 or more months to depreciate to less than £1200 at a rate of 5% per month.

Help me plz I’ll give Brainlyest

Answers

Answer:

the rate at which the temperature drops

the day of the week

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we can choose the number of hour, it is dependent on us.

If we set time = 2, then it would 5 x 2 = 10 degree

Similarly, if we change time, the temperature changes. Thus, it is dependent.

Temperature is dropping at a rate of five degrees per hour.

If t = 1, T = 5*1 = 5°, rate = 5

if t = 2, T = 5*2 = 10°, rate = 5

if t = 3, T = 5*3 = 15°, rate = 5

Notice that rate doesnt change, even the temperature and time changes.

Thus, rate is independent.

Nevaeh has $0.80 worth of nickels and dimes. She has a total of 11 nickels and dimes altogether. Graphically solve a system of equations in order to determine the number of nickels, x,x, and the number of dimes, y,y, that Nevaeh has.

Answers

Answer: We can set up a system of equations to represent this problem. The first equation represents the total value of the nickels and dimes in terms of the number of nickels and dimes that Nevaeh has:

0.05x + 0.1y = 0.80

The second equation represents the total number of nickels and dimes that Nevaeh has in terms of the number of nickels and dimes that she has:

x + y = 11

To graphically solve this system of equations, we can use the slope-intercept form of the linear equations.

y = -2x + 22

y = -1/2 x + 8

The solution would be the point where the lines intersect , which x = 4, and y = 7 .

So she has 4 nickels, and 7 dimes.

A company that makes fasteners has government specifications for a self-locking nut. The locking torque has both a maximum and minimum specified. The offsetting machine used to make these nuts has been producing nuts with an average locking torque of 8.62 in-lb and variance of 4.49 squared in-lb. Torque is normally distributed. If the upper specification is 13.0 in-lb and the lower specification is 2.25 in-lb, what percent of these nuts will meet the specification limits

Answers

Answer:

97.95% of these nuts will meet the specification limits.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

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

The offsetting machine used to make these nuts has been producing nuts with an average locking torque of 8.62 in-lb and variance of 4.49 squared in-lb.

This means that [tex]\mu = 8.62, \sigma = \sqrt{4.49}[/tex]

Torque is normally distributed. If the upper specification is 13.0 in-lb and the lower specification is 2.25 in-lb, what percent of these nuts will meet the specification limits?

The proportion is the p-value of Z when X = 13 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 2.25. So

X = 13

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

[tex]Z = \frac{13 - 8.62}{\sqrt{4.49}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.07[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.07[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9808.

X = 2.25

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

[tex]Z = \frac{2.25 - 8.62}{\sqrt{4.49}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -3.01[/tex]

[tex]Z = -3.01[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0013.

0.9808 - 0.0013 = 0.9795

0.9795*100% = 97.95%

97.95% of these nuts will meet the specification limits.

[tex]E = 5.5h[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached table

Solving (a): Complete the table

First, calculate the slope (m)

[tex]m = \frac{E_2 - E_1}{h_2 - h_1}[/tex]

So:

[tex]m = \frac{27.5- 22.00}{5-4}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{5.50}{1}[/tex]

[tex]m = 5.50[/tex]

So, the equation of the table is:

[tex]E = m(h - h_1) + E_1[/tex]

[tex]E = 5.5(h - 4) + 22[/tex]

[tex]E = 5.5h - 22 + 22[/tex]

[tex]E = 5.5h[/tex]

When h =1,2,3

[tex]E = 5.5 * 1 = 5.5[/tex]

[tex]E = 5.5 * 2 = 11.00[/tex]

[tex]E = 5.5 * 3 = 16,50[/tex]

A light bulb consumes 5400 watt-hours in 3 days and 18 hours. How many watt-hours does it consume per day?

Answers

We are given:

Time period: 3 days and 18 hours

Energy consumed in given time period: 5400 watt-hours

Converting time to hours:

We know that one day is 24 hours

So, 3 days = 72 hours

Time period = 3 days + 18 hours

Time period = 72 hours + 18 hours      

Time period = 90 hours

Converting to days

Time period = 3.75 days

Watt-hour consumption in a day:

Consumption = 5400 watt-hours / 3.75 days

Consumption = 1440 watt-hours/day

Why is the discriminant a useful tool to use when solving quadratic equations?

Answers

The discriminate determines how many roots the quadratic contains. The formula is: d=b²-4ac, where a, b, and c are derived from ax²+bx+c=0. When solving for the discriminate, the properties consist of:

If d>0, the the quadratic has 2 real solutions

If d=0, the quadratic has one (repeated) solution

If d<0, the quadratic has no real roots.

You must plug d in for these inequalities to determine which one is true, and that will tell you how many solutions a quadratic contains.
