According to the data released by the Chamber of Commerce of a certain city, the weekly wages of factory workers are normally distributed with a mean of $720 and standard deviation of $40. Find the probability that a worker selected at random from the city makes the following weekly wage. (Round your answers to four decimal places.)

Answers

Answer 1

Complete question :

a. Of less than$720?

b. Of more than $840?

c. Between $680 and $760?

Answer:

0.500 ; 0.0013 ; 0.6827

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Mean, μ = 720

Standard deviation, σ = 40

P(Z < x)

x = (x < 720)

Obtain the standardized value of x

P(x < 720) = (x - μ) / σ

P(x < 720) = (720 - 720) / 40

P(x < 720) = 0

P(Z < 0) = 0.5

B.) More than $840

P(x > 840)

P(x > 840) = (x - μ) / σ

P(x > 840) = (840 - 720) / 40

P(x > 840) = 120 / 40 = 3

P(Z > 3) = 0.0013499 (Z probability calculator)

c. Between $680 and $760?

P(760 < x < 680)

P(760 < x < 680) = ((x - μ) / σ) - ((x - μ) / σ)

P(760 < x < 680) = ((760 - 720) / 40) - (680 - 720) / 40)) = P( Z < - 1) - P(Z < - 1)

P(680 < x < 760) = 0.84134 - 0.15866 = 0.68268

A group of transfer bound students wondered if they will spend the same mean amount on texts and supplies each year at their four-year university as they have at their community college. They conducted a random survey of 54 students at their community college and 66 students at their local four-year university. The sample means were $947 and $1,011, respectively. The population standard deviations are known to be $254 and $87, respectively. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the means are statistically the same assume alpha is 0.05.

Answers

Answer:

We accept H₀. We don´t have enough evidence to support the difference between the two means

Step-by-step explanation:

Group 1 : Comunity College

Sample:

size  :   n₁  = 54

Sample mean    x₁  = 947

Sample standard deviation     s₁ = 254

Group 2 : Local University

Sample

size  :  n₂  =  66

Sample mean :  x₂  = 1011

Sample standard deviation    s₂  =  87

Significance level  α  = 0,05      α  =  5 %      CI = 95 %

Both samples are with n> 30 so we can use z table for the test

from z-table we find  z(c)  =  1,96

The problem statement establishes to run a hypothesis test to determine if the means are statistically the same  ( or different) then we use two-tail-test

Hypothesis Test

Null Hypothesis                        H₀             x₁   -  x₂  = 0 or    x₁  = x₂

Alternative hypothesis             Hₐ             x₁  -  x₂  ≠  0  or    x₁ ≠ x₂

To calculate

z(s)  =  (  x₁   -  x₂  ) / √ s₁²/n₁  + s₂²/n₂ )

z(s)  =  947  -  1011 / √  (254)²/54   +  (87)² / 66

z(s) = -  64  /√ 1194,74  +  114,68

z(s) =  - 64  / 36,185

z(s) =  - 1,77

Comparing modules of  |z(c)|  and |z(s)|

z(s) < z(c)

Then z(s) is in the acceptance region we accept H₀ . There is not enough evidence to support differences in the means of the two groups

What is the sum of the geometric series?

Let a be the first term and r be the common ratio. Then the sum of the geometric series will be

S = a / (1 – r) if r < 1

S = a / (r – 1) if r > 1

The sum of [tex]\rm \Sigma_{n = 1}^{\infty} 8(0.2)^{n - 1}[/tex].

Then the first term of the geometric sequence will be 8.

And the common difference between the successive terms will be 0.2.

The common ratio less than one, then the formula for the sum will be given as

S = a / (1 – r) if r < 1

Then the sum of the sequence till infinity will be

S = 8 / (1 – 0.2)

S = 8 / 0.8

S = 10

Thus, the sum of the sequence will be S = 8 / (1 – 0.2).

Then the correct option is D.

The probability that it will snow on Sunday is 3/5. The probability that it will snow on both Sunday and Monday is 3/10. What is the probability that it will snow on Monday, if it snowed on Sunday?

Answers

Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of snowing on both Sunday and Monday= probability that it will snow on Sunday × probability that it will snow on Monday.

(and usually means multiply the probabilities while or implies addition of the probabilities).

Let probability of snowing on Monday be P

Hence 3/10=3/5× P

Hence P=(3/10) divided by (3/5) = 1/2

you will nees to use pythagorean theorem a^2 + b^2 = c^2

the a and b values will be 12 and 5 feet. So just plug them in and solve for c

12^2 + 5^2 = c^2

144 + 25 = c^2

169 = c^2 square root both sides

13 = c
