Jana and Jenn are training to run a race. Jana runs 3 miles in 1/3 hour. Jenn runs 5 miles in 3/4 hour. Who runs faster, and what is the unit rate of her speed in minutes per mile?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Jenn runs faster at 9 minutes/mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jana runs 3 miles in 1/3 hour.

1/3 hour is equivalent to 1/3*60 = 20 minutes

The ratio time/distance is the reciprocal of the speed and is greater as the speed is lower and vice-versa.

This ratio for Jana is 20/3=16.7 minutes/mile

As for Jenn, she runs 5 miles in 3/4 hour.

3/4 hour is equivalent to 3/4*60=45 minutes

The ratio time/distance is 45/5=9 minutes/mile

Since Jenn has a lower ration, her speed is greater than Jana's, thus Jenn runs faster.

You have a coin with unknown probability p of coming up heads. You wish to generate a random variable which takes the values 0 and 1, each with probability 1/2. Assume 0 < p < 1. You adopt the following procedure. You start by flipping the coin twice. If both flips produce the same side of the coin, you start again. If the result of the first flip is different from the result of the second flip, you report the result of the first flip, and you are finished (this is a trick originally due to John von Neumann). (a) Show that, in this case, the probability of reporting heads is 1/2. (b) What is the expected number of flips you must make before you report a result?

Answers

Answer:

(a) Hence, the probability of reporting heads is 1/2.

(b) Therefore, the expected number of such trial is 1 / 2p (1 –p).

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

To generate a random variable takes value 0 and 1.

Let 0 < p <1,

A coin is flipped twice.

(a) Probability of reporting head is 1/2.

The result of two toss is either HT or TH.

In this case we used conditional property, Given that you got either HT or TH,

Probability of occurring head or tail:

P (1ST = H| HT or TH]

= P (H) / P (HT or TH)

= P (HT) / P (HT or TH)

= P (1-P) / P (1-P) + (1-P)P

= P (1-P) / 2P (1-P)

=1/2

Hence, the probability of reporting heads is 1/2.

(b) Expected number of flip before report a result.

The probability of reporting a result on each trial is:

P (HT or TH)

=P (HT) + P (TH)

=P (1-P) + (1 –P) P

= 2P (1 –P)

Since, E(X) = 1 / P

Therefore, the expected number of such trial is 1 / 2p (1 –p).

Approximate the mean and standard deviation for temperature.

Answers

Answer:

The mean is  [tex]\= x  = 79.7 [/tex]

The standard deviation  [tex]\sigma =7.81[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The data given is  

Temperature                Lower Limit           Upper Limit               Days

50-59                               50                             59                          2

90-99                                   90                          99                          319

100-109                                100                         109                         9        

Generally the average of each limit is evaluated as

Temperature    Lower Limit   Upper Limit         Average[tex](x_i)[/tex]                    Days[tex](f_i)[/tex]

50-59                 50                   59              ( 50 + 59 )/2 =54.5                 2

60-69                 60                   69              (60+69)/2 = 64.5                    313

70-79                 70                    79               (70+79)/2 =74.5                    1419

90-99                 90                   99                 (90+99)/2 = 94.5                319

100-109             100                  109                 (100+109)/2 = 104.5            9  

Generally the mean is  evaluated as

     [tex]\mu  =  \frac{\sum x_i f_i}{\sum f_i}[/tex]

=>  [tex]\mu  =  \frac{ (54.5 * 2) + (64.5 * 313) +\cdots +(104.5 *  9)}{2 + 313 +\cdots + 9}[/tex]

=> [tex]\= x  = 79.7 [/tex]

Generally the standard deviation  is  evaluated as

    [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{ \frac{\sum[ f_i * ( x_i^2 - \= x^2)] }{\sum f_i}}[/tex]

=>   [tex]\sigma =\sqrt{ \frac{[2 * [(54.5)^2) - 79.7^2 ]]+[313 *[ (64.5)^2)-79.7^2] +\cdots +[9 *[ (104.5)^2)- 79.7^2]  }{2 + 313 +\cdots + 9}}[/tex]

=>  [tex]\sigma =7.81[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Just so that we have something to work with, the length of the longest day (June 22) in Acron Ohio is 15 hours 8 minutes and 9 seconds on the 20th of June of this year. The number we get won't be this accurate, but it will tell us if we have done it correctly. The tricky part is when to use the radians.

cos(0.1309 H) = -0.4336 tan (40o 46 minutes)  I have assumed this is in radians. It won't work any other way. The measurement cannot be in degrees which will give a negative tan from the minus sign out in front. The cos being minus will make things even worse.

cos(0.1309 H) = -0.4336 tan (40 46/60  )

cos(0.1309 H) = -0.4336 tan (40.766666667)

cos(0.1309 H) = -0.4336 * -0.074173405

cos(0.1309 H) = 0.032161588

0.1309 H = cos-1(0.032161588)

0.1309 H =  1.538629191

H = 1.538629191 / 0.1309

H = 11.754 which is no where near 15 hours, but it is what the numbers give.

I would suggest that you go to your instructor for the other two. Work this one out until you get somewhere near 11.7 hours.

A large hamburger (e.g., Whopper®) sandwich contains 628 kcal and 36 grams of fat. Approximately what percentage of the total energy is contributed by fat?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total energy of the sandwich = 628kcal

Mass of fat contained = 36grams

Convert gram to kcal

1gram = 9kcal

36 grams = x

x = 36×9

x = 324kcal

Hence the fat contains 324kcal

%fat contained = fat(in kcal)/total calorie × 100%

%fat contained = 324/628 × 100%

%fat contained = 1/2 × 100%

%fat contained = 50%

Hence approximately 50% of the total energy is contributed by fat.

The Discriminant is 25

For this case, the discriminant will be given by

b ^ 2 - 4 * a * c

Where

b = 7

a = 3

substituting

b ^ 2 - 4 * a * c = (7) ^ 2 - 4 * (3) * (2) = 25

Therefore the value of the discriminant is 25.

Arachnophobia is the fear of spiders. People with arachnophobia suffer to different degrees, but they tend to react intensely to visible signs of the presence of spiders, such as webs. The director of a clinic decides to investigate different treatment types for arachnophobia. She gathers three groups of clients: One group receives in vivo flooding, which involves prolonged or repeated exposure to the actual anxiety-producing stimuli. The second group receives imaginal flooding, which involves the same techniques as in vivo flooding, except the exposure occurs in the client’s imagination. The third group receives no treatment. The results come in, and a statistician conducts an analysis of variance.


The ___________ is that there is no difference between the population means (in other words, there is no treatment effect).
The ___________is that at least one of the population means is different from another (in other words, there is an effect Of at least one Of the treatments).

Answers

Answer:

1. The null hypothesis is that there is no difference between the population means (in other words, there is no treatment effect).

2. The alternative hypothesis is that at least one of the population means is different from another (in other words, there is an effect Of at least one Of the treatments).

Step-by-step explanation:

In a statistical analysis, the statistician shares his participants into several groups and administers treatments to them. After administering the treatment, he might want to compare the values obtained to see if there is a difference. If he accepts the null hypothesis as true, that means that there was no difference between the population means. This can also be taken to mean that the result had no difference among the groups.

But if the alternative hypothesis was true, that means that the population means were not all equal and so, there was an effect from the treatment administered.  

Answer:

1. The null hypothesis is that there is no difference between the population means (in other words, there is no treatment effect).

2. The alternative hypothesis is that at least one of the population means is different from another (in other words, there is an effect Of at least one Of the treatments).

Given the expressions

[tex](4x^5-8x) ()(3x^2-8x+9)[/tex]

We need to know which sign goes into the bracket that will give a trinomial when simplified.

A trinomial is a function containing 3-terms.

Using the subtraction sign.

[tex](4x^5-8x) - (3x^2-8x+9)[/tex]

Expand

[tex]= 4x^5-8x - 3x^2+8x-9\\= 4x^5-3x^2-8x+8x-9\\=4x^5-3x^2+0-9\\=4x^5-3x^2-9[/tex]

Since the resulting term is a trinomial (3 terms), hence the correct operator that enters a circle is a subtraction sign.
