The number of accidents per week at a hazardous intersection varies with mean 2.2 and standard deviation 1.4. The distribution of this particular variable is very right skewed.(a) Suppose we let (X-bar) be the mean number of accidents per week at the intersection during 9 randomly chosen weeks. What is the probability that (X-bar) is less than 2?(b) Now let X be the mean number of accidents per week at the intersection during a year (52 weeks). What is the probability that X is less than 2?

Answers

Answer:

The probability that sample mean is less than 2  is 0.1423.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X denote the number of accidents per week at a hazardous intersection.

It is provided that the mean and standard deviation of X are, μ = 2.2 and σ = 1.4.

(a)

According to the Central Limit Theorem if an unknown population is selected with mean μ and standard deviation σ and appropriately huge random samples (n > 30) are selected from this population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally.  

Then, the mean of the sample means is given by,

[tex]\mu_{\bar x}=\mu[/tex]

And the standard deviation of the sample means is given by,

[tex]\sigma_{\bar x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

As the sample size is not large enough, i.e. n = 9 < 30, the Central Limit Theorem cannot be applied to approximate the sampling distribution of the mean number of accidents per week at the intersection.

And since the distribution of X is not specified, the probability cannot be computed.

(b)

In this case, the sample size is large enough, i.e. n = 52 > 30, the Central Limit Theorem can be applied to approximate the sampling distribution of the mean number of accidents per week at the intersection.

Compute the probability that sample mean is less than 2 as follows:

[tex]P(\bar X<2)=P(\frac{\bar X-\mu_{\bar x}}{\sigma_{\bar x}}<\frac{2-2.2}{1.4/\sqrt{56}})\\\\=P(Z<-1.07)\\\\=0.14231\\\\\approx 0.1423[/tex]

Thus, the probability that sample mean is less than 2  is 0.1423.

Answers

Answer:

This comes out to around 25 percent. Simply multiply 40 by 1/4 to get 10 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude of a triangle is increasing at a rate of 1 cm/min while the area of the triangle is increasing at a rate of 2 cm^2/min. At what rate is the base of the triangle changing when the altitude is 10 cm and the area is 120 cm^2?

Answers

Answer:

The base is decreasing at 2 cm/min.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a triangle is given by:

[tex] A = \frac{1}{2}bh [/tex]   (1)

Where:

b: is the base

h: is the altitude = 10 cm

If we take the derivative of equation (1) as a function of time we have:

[tex] \frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{db}{dt}h + \frac{dh}{dt}b) [/tex]

We can find the base by solving equation (1) for b:

[tex] b = \frac{2A}{h} = \frac{2*120 cm^{2}}{10 cm} = 24 cm [/tex]

Now, having that dh/dt = 1 cm/min, dA/dt = 2 cm²/min we can find db/dt:

[tex] 2 cm^{2}/min = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{db}{dt}*10 cm + 1 cm/min*24 cm) [/tex]

[tex]\frac{db}{dt} = \frac{2*2 cm^{2}/min - 1 cm/min*24 cm}{10 cm} = -2 cm/min[/tex]    

         

Therefore, the base is decreasing at 2 cm/min.

               

I hope it helps you!

Answers

Answer:

61.2

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we would have to use the arithmetic progression formula

S(n) = a + (n - 1) d, where

S(n) = is the value of the nth term

a = value of the first term

n = the nth term we're interested in

d = difference between successive terms

We're given that the first term, a1 = 1.we also know that the 6th term, a6 = 44

If so, we can use this to get our "d", saying

44 = 1 + (6 - 1) d

where

44 is the value of the 6th term, and n is 6. Also, the first term a = 1. Simplifying further we have

44 = 1 + 5d

5d = 44 - 1

5d = 43

d = 43/5

d = 8.6

This means that the difference between successive term is 8.6, we then use this "d" to find our 8th term

S(n) = 1 + (8 - 1) 8.6

S(n) = 1 + 7 * 8.6

S(n) = 1 + 60.2

S(n) = 61.2

Therefore, the 8th term is 61.2

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P(F/E) = 0.6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are given two dependent events [tex]A[/tex] and [tex]B[/tex] such that their chances of occurrence or the probabilities of the events are: [tex]P(A)[/tex] and [tex]P(B)[/tex].

Then the conditional probability that the event [tex]B[/tex] will occur given that [tex]A[/tex] has already occurred is given by the following formula:

[tex]P(B/A) = \dfrac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

Here the two events given are [tex]E[/tex] and [tex]F[/tex].

[tex]P(E\ and\ F)\ or\ P(E\cup F) = 0.3[/tex]

and [tex]P(E) = 0.5[/tex]

As per the above formula that we have already discussed, the formula can be written as:

[tex]P(F/E) = \dfrac{P(E \cap F)}{P(E)}\\\Rightarrow P(F/E) = \dfrac{0.3}{0.5}\\\Rightarrow P(F/E) = \dfrac{3}{5}\\\Rightarrow \bold{P(F/E) = 0.6}[/tex]

In the library on a university campus, there is a sign in the elevator that indicates a limit of 16 persons. Furthermore, there is a weight limit of 2500 lb. Assume that the average weight of students, faculty, and staff on campus is 151 lb, that the standard deviation is 25 lb, and that the distribution of weights of individuals on campus is approximately normal. If a random sample of 16 persons from the campus is to be taken:

a. What is the expected value of the sample mean of their weights?
b. What is the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample mean weight?
c. What average weights for a sample of 16 people will result in the total weight exceeding the weight limit of 2500 lb?
d. What is the chance that a random sample of 16 persons on the elevator will exceed the weight limit?

Answers

Answer:

Explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central Limit Theorem if an unknown population is selected with mean μ and standard deviation σ and appropriately huge random samples (n > 30) are selected from this population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally.  

Then, the mean of the sample means is given by,

[tex]\mu_{\bar x}=\mu[/tex]

And the standard deviation of the sample means is given by,

[tex]\sigma_{\bar x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

a

The expected value of the sample mean of their weights is same as the population mean, μ = 1515 lbs.

b

The standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample mean weight is:

[tex]\sigma_{\bar x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{25}{\sqrt{16}}=6.25[/tex]

c.

The average weights for a sample of 16 people will result in the total weight exceeding the weight limit of 2500 lbs. is:

[tex]\text{Average Weight}=\frac{2500}{16}=156.25[/tex]

d

Compute the probability that a random sample of 16 persons on the elevator will exceed the weight limit as follows:

[tex]P(\bar X > 156.25)=P(\frac{\bar X-\mu_{\bar x}}{\sigma_{\bar x}}>\frac{156.25-151}{6.25})\\\\=P(Z>0.84)\\\\=1-P(Z<0.84)\\\\=1-0.79955\\\\=0.20045\\\\\approx 0.20[/tex]
