A swimming team has 16 members. The coach wants to create teams of 4 swimmers to compete in the relay race. How many different teams of 4 can she make without repetition? ​

Answers

Answer 1

There is 1820 ways of teams of 4 can she make without repetition using combination formula.

What is combination?

  Selections are another name for combinations. The choice of items from a predetermined group of items corresponds to combinations. We don't want to organise anything here. We are going to choose them. We use the notation nCr to indicate how many distinct r-selections or combinations there are among a set of n objects. A combination is distinct from an arrangement or a permutation. No matter how the objects are arranged, combinations are produced by choosing some or all of them.

Here There are 16 total swim team members and 4 swimmers that will be chosen for each relay team.

So, n=16 and r=4. Then

=> nCr =  [tex]\frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}[/tex]

=> 16C4 = [tex]\frac{16!}{4!(16-4)!}[/tex]

=> 16C4 = [tex]\frac{16!}{4!*12!}[/tex]

=> 16C4 = [tex]\frac{16*15*14*13}{4*3*2*1}[/tex]

=>16C4 = 4*5*7*13 = 1820

Hence there is 1820 ways  of teams of 4 can she make without repetition.

An investigator compares the durability of two different compounds used in the manufacture of a certain automobile brake lining. A sample of 243 brakes using Compound 1 yields an average brake life of 37,866 miles. A sample of 268 brakes using Compound 2 yields an average brake life of 45,789 miles. Assume that the population standard deviation for Compound 1 is 4414 miles, while the population standard deviation for Compound 2 is 2368 miles. Determine the 95% confidence interval for the true difference between average lifetimes for brakes using Compound 1 and brakes using Compound 2. Step 2 of 3 : Calculate the margin of error of a confidence interval for the difference between the two population means. Round your answer to six decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The margin of error is of 623.2016.

The 95% confidence interval for the true difference between average lifetimes for brakes using Compound 1 and brakes using Compound 2 is (-8546.2016, -7299.7984).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem, and subtraction between normal variables.

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.

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the subtraction of the means while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

A sample of 243 brakes using Compound 1 yields an average brake life of 37,866 miles. The population standard deviation for Compound 1 is 4414 miles.

This means that [tex]\mu_1 = 37866, s_1 = \frac{4414}{\sqrt{243}} = 283.16[/tex]

A sample of 268 brakes using Compound 2 yields an average brake life of 45,789 miles. The population standard deviation for Compound 2 is 2368 miles.

This means that [tex]\mu_2 = 45789, s_2 = \frac{2368}{\sqrt{268}} = 144.65[/tex]

Distribution of the difference between average lifetimes for brakes using Compound 1 and brakes using Compound 2.

The mean is:

[tex]\mu = \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 37866 - 45789 = -7923[/tex]

The standard deviation is:

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_1^2 + s_2^2} = \sqrt{283.16^2 + 144.64^2} = 317.96[/tex]

Confidence interval:

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = zs[/tex]

[tex]M = 1.96*317.96 = 623.2016[/tex]

The margin of error is of 623.2016.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is -7923 - 623.2016 = -8546.2016

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is -7923 + 623.2016 = -7299.7984

The 95% confidence interval for the true difference between average lifetimes for brakes using Compound 1 and brakes using Compound 2 is (-8546.2016, -7299.7984).

Stock in Macy's costs $25.75 per share. Hector buys 200 shares of Macy's
through his broker who charges a commission of $25.75. How much did George
pay in total to purchase the stock?

Answers

Answer: $5175.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount that is paid in total to buy the stock will be gotten through the addition of the cost of the shares and the commission paid. This will be:

= (200 × $25.75) + $25.75

= $5150 + $25.75

= $5175.75

Therefore, the total amount that is paid to buy the stock will be $5175.75.

Given that

The monthly payment was m dollars

And, they used more electricity

We need to determine the value that should be expressed in algebraically

The Monthly payment is m dollars

Using balance billing, it would be mx dollars

So, the equation is

Her mistake is that she did not _____

B) order the data points from least to greatest before finding the middle data point

C) ignore the data points that repeat in the data set

D) divide the middle data point by the total number of data points

,

The correct median of the data set is ___

A) 14

B) 16

C) 15

D) 14.5

E) 15.5

Answers

Answer:

The answer is B. The correct median of the data set is C, 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

To do a quick recap:

Mode is the average value that is found by adding up all the values and dividing them by the number of values you used.

Median is the number found in the very middle, so Darcy is correct about what a median is.

Mode is the number that appears most.

Notice that the numbers are not arranged in numerical order from least to greatest. She just took the number that she saw in the middle, without considering where it would stand if the numbers were ranked from least to most.

Here's a ranking of all the numbers from least to greatest:

8, 9, 9, 12, 13, 14, 15, 15, 16, 16, 16, 17, 21

From this ranking, we can see that there are a total of 13 numbers. Therefore, the 7th number is the median, which means that the median is 15.

A right pyramid PQRST has a rectangular base QRST. Given
that W is the midpoint of QS and RT, the lengths of QT = 8 cm,
TS = 6 cm and point P is vertically above point W, calculate
(a) PT, in cm, if PW = 12 cm
(b) the value of < PTR [angle PTR]

THANK YOU!!!​

Answers

Answer:

(a) PT = 13 cm

(b) <PTR = [tex]39.7^{o}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Applying the Pythagoras theorem to QST, we have;

[tex]QS^{2}[/tex] = [tex]ST^{2}[/tex] + [tex]QT^{2}[/tex]

      = [tex]6^{2}[/tex] + [tex]8^{2}[/tex]

[tex]QS^{2}[/tex] = 36 + 64

       100

QS = [tex]\sqrt{100}[/tex]

     = 10

QS = 10 cm

Since QS = TR, then;

WT = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] TR

      = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x 10

WT = 5 cm

Thus, applying Pathagoras theorem to PWT;

[tex]PT^{2}[/tex] = [tex]PW^{2}[/tex] + [tex]WT^{2}[/tex]

      = [tex]12^{2}[/tex] + [tex]5^{2}[/tex]

      = 144 + 25

[tex]PT^{2}[/tex] = 169

PT = [tex]\sqrt{169}[/tex]

    = 13

PT = 13 cm

(b) To determine <PTR, TR = 10 cm. Apply the required trigonometric function;

Cos θ = [tex]\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

Cos θ = [tex]\frac{10}{13}[/tex]

          = 0.7692

θ = [tex]Cos^{-1}[/tex] 0.7692

  = 39.7179

θ = [tex]39.7^{o}[/tex]

Therefore, <PTR = [tex]39.7^{o}[/tex]
