according to a recent study, the mean number of hours college students spent playing video games per month was 43 hours with a population standard deviation of 2 hours. two weeks before final exams were scheduled to begin, 100 college students were randomly selected. what is the probability that the mean number of hours spent playing video games is less than 42.8 hours? use the z-table below. round your answer to three decimal places if necessary.

Answers

Answer 1

The probability that the mean number of hours spent playing video games is less than 42.8 hours  is   0.15866

we are  given the  mean of ( m )= 43 hours and the standard deviations (s) of  2 hours, where the sample size (n) =  100.

Obtain the Zscore ;

Z = (x - m) ÷s/sqrt(n)

Z = (42.8 - 43) ÷ 2/sqrt(100)

Z = - 0. 2 ÷ 0.2

Z = - 1

so we need the probability of P(Z < - 1), from the  table  of  z-score  the probability of a z-score of -1  is   0.15866.Hence, the probability that the mean number of hours spent playing video games is less than 42.8 hours is 0.15866

Answers

Using front end estimation, the solutions to the given problems are;

1) 25.72

2) 137.521

3) 17.1

How to use front end estimation?

Front-end estimation is defined as a particular way of rounding numbers to estimate sums and differences.

The procedure for using front- end estimation, is to add or subtract only the numbers in the greatest place value. Thereafter, we add the decimals rounded to the nearest tenth.

1) 32.47 - 6.75

First of all, let's deal with the whole numbers part;

32 - 6 = 26

Next is to deal with the decimal part to get;

0.47 is approximately 0.5 while 0.75 is approximately 0.8. Thus;

0.5 - 0.8 = - 0.3

Thus, we have;

26 + (-0.3) = 25.70

Therefore, our given solution can be written as; 25.72

2) 118.234 + 19.287

First of all, let's deal with the whole numbers part;

118 + 19 = 137

Next is to deal with the decimal part to get;

0.234 is approximately 0.2 while 0.287 is approximately 0.3. Thus;

0.2 + 0.3 =0.5

Thus, we have;

137 + 0.5 = 137.5

Therefore, our given solution can be written as; 137.521

C)  17.9 - 0.8

First of all, let's deal with the whole numbers part;

17 - 0 = 17

Next is to deal with the decimal part to get;

0.9 - 0.8 = 0.1

Thus, we have;

17 + 0.1 = 17.1

Therefore, our given solution can be written as; 17.1

What is Graph?

Graph is a mathematical representation of a network and it describes the relationship between lines and points.

We need to find which transformation is used for this.

Graph transformation is the process by which an existing graph, or graphed equation, is modified to produce a variation of the proceeding graph.

and  A vertical reflection reflects a graph vertically across the x-axis, while a horizontal reflection reflects a graph horizontally across the y-axis

Horizontally translating a graph is equivalent to shifting the base graph left or right in the direction of the x-axis.

The graph is just shifted slightly to right.

Figure B undergoes a translation of translation 1 unit up.

Multiply the numbers

2⋅3x=[12(4x+20)]⋅22⋅3=[12(4+20)]⋅2

6x=[12(4x+20)]⋅26=[12(4+20)]⋅2

6x=[4x+20/2]⋅26=[4+20/2]⋅2

Re-order terms so constants are on the left

6x=4x+20/2⋅26=4+20/2⋅2

6x=2⋅4x+20/2

Cancel multiplied terms that are in the denominator

6x=2⋅4x+20/2

6x=4x+20

Subtract 4x from both sides

6x=4x+20

6−4=4+20−4

Simplify

6x-4x=4x+20-4x

2x=4x+20-4x

Combine like terms

2x=20

Divide both sides by the same factor

2x=20

2x/2=20/2

cancel 2 on both sides

20 divided by 2 is 10

What is rounding of decimal numbers?

Look at the next digit in the correct position to determine how to round a number; if it is less than 5, round down, and if it is 5 or more, round up. The term "rounding decimals" describes the accurate rounding of decimal figures. To the nearest whole, tenth, or hundredth, we can round decimals.

Given, An ostrich egg has a width of 12.9 cm to the nearest tenth of a centimeter.

We have to find the minimum and maximum possible measurements.

If you're rounding to the nearest tenth of a centimeter, 12.85 centimeters is the smallest measurement that would equal 12.9 centimeters.

An airplane at an altitude of 3000 feet descends at a rate of 500 feet per mile.​

Answers

Five minutes into the descent the airplane has an altitude of 500 feet.

Given that an airplane at 3,000 feet begins to descend at a rate of

500 feet per minute, it is required to write an equation to model the situation and find the altitude of the airplane after 5 minutes.

First, we can model the situation through a linear equation of the form

y = mx + b.

Then, we must identify each variable:

y = A = Altitude

m = decrease per minute = 500

x = t = minute-time

b = Airplane height = 3,000

Now, we set up the equation, substituting y, m, x, and b into the linear equation, as the situation models the descent of the airplane the slope must be negative; thus:

A(t) = 3,000 − 500t

Lastly, we must find the altitude when if t = 5:

A(5) = 3,000 − 500(5)

Solving, we obtain:

A(5)=3,000 − 2,500 = 500

Hence the answer is, Five minutes into the descent the airplane has an altitude of 500 feet.

How is p-value calculated with example?

Answers

To calculate the p-value, we have to follow the following steps:

First, identify the correct test statistic.Then, calculate the test statistic using the relevant properties of the sample.Specify the characteristics of the test statistic’s sampling distribution.Then, place test statistics in the sampling distribution to find the p-value.

To calculate the p-value, we need

p = sample proportion

p' = assumed population proportion in the null hypothesis

n = sample size

Example

Given, n =40, σ = 32.17 and X = 105.37. calculate p-value.

σₓ = σ/ √n

σₓ = 32.17 / √40

    = 5.0865

Now, by applying the test static formula, we get

t = (105.37 – 120) / 5.0865

t = -2.8762

Using the table, we find the value of P(t>-2.8762)

From the table, we get

P (t<-2.8762) = P(t>2.8762) = 0.003

If P(t>-2.8762) = 1- 0.003 = 0.997

How do I solve this Quadratic expression by factoring?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

the highest exponent is 2, so, we expect to get 2 factors in x (as the multiplication of x×x = x²).

3 is a prime number, and the only factors to get 3 are 3 and 1

3 = 3×1

so, we expect to get factors that look like

(3x + a)(x + b)

when we do the multiplication, we get

3x² + 3bx + ax + ab = 3x² +(3b + a)x + ab

now we compare this to our original expression

3x² +(3b + a)x + ab = 3x² - 13x + 12

3b + a = -13

ab = 12

so, we know a and b must both be negative

(-×- = +, - - - = -).

the negative factors of 12 are

-12 × -1

-6 × -2

-4 × -3

which one of these pairs can make

3b + a = -13

be true ?

3×-12 + -1 = -37 no

3×-1 + -12 = -15 no

3×-6 + -2 = -20 no

3×-2 + -6 = -12 no

3×-4 + -3 = -15 no

3×-3 + -4 = -13 yes

Answers

By first subtraction b and then dividing by m, the solution of the linear equation for x is:

(y - b)/m = x

How to solve the linear equation for x?

Here we have a linear equation that defines the variable y in terms of the variable x:

y = m*x + b

Where m and b are real numbers.

Now we want to find x in terms of the variable y, this means that we need to isolate the variable x.

if first we subtract b in both sides, we get:

y - b = m*x + b - b

y - b = m*x

If now we divide both sides by m, we get:

(y - b)/m = m*x/m

(y - b)/m = x

This is the linear equation solved for x.

Answers

The width of the enlarged photo is 12 inches

The length of the original photo = 10 inches

The width of the original photo = 8 inches

The length of the enlarged photo = 15 inches

The width of the enlarged photo = x

Then the proportion of the length and width of the original and enlarged photo will be

10 / 8 = 15 / x

Cross multiply the terms

10x = 15 × 8

Multiply the terms in the equation

Divide both side of the equation by 10

10x / 10 = 120 / 10

x = 120 / 10
