The ages of a group of 134 randomly selected adult females have a standard deviation of 18.9 years. Assume that the ages of female statistics students have less variation than ages of females in the general population, so let o = 18.9 years for the sample size calculation. How many female statistics student ages must be obtained in order to estimate the mean age of all female statistics students? Assume that we want 95% confidence that the sample mean is within one-half year of the population mean. Does it seem reasonable to assume that the ages of female statistics students have less variation than ages of females in the general population? The required sample size is (Round up to the nearest whole number as needed.)

Answer:

To select a sample of 5 trees that is likely to be representative of the population of 50 trees, the farmer could use simple random sampling. This means that each tree in the population has an equal chance of being selected for the sample.

One way to do this is to assign a number to each tree and then use a random number generator to select 5 numbers between 1 and 50. The trees corresponding to those numbers would be selected for the sample.

Another way is to use a table of random numbers or a computer program that generates random numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute minimum value of f(x) on the interval [-1,5] is -1, which occurs at x = 0 and absolute maximum value of f(x) on the interval is 256, which occurs at x = 5.

To find the absolute minimum and absolute maximum values of f(x) = x3-6x2 + 9x + 7 on the interval [-1,4], we can start by finding the critical points of the function, which are the points where the derivative is equal to zero or undefined.

Taking the derivative of f(x), we get:

f'(x) = 3x2 - 12x + 9

Setting f'(x) = 0, we can solve for the critical points:

3x2 - 12x + 9 = 0

x2 - 4x + 3 = 0

(x - 1)(x - 3) = 0

So the critical points are x = 1 and x = 3. We also need to check the endpoints of the interval, x = -1 and x = 4.

Plugging these values into f(x), we get:

f(-1) = 13

f(1) = 11

f(3) = 25

f(4) = 23

So the absolute minimum value of f(x) on the interval [-1,4] is 11, which occurs at x = 1. The absolute maximum value of f(x) on the interval is 25, which occurs at x = 3.

Now, let's find the absolute minimum and absolute maximum values of f(x) = (x2-1)3 on the interval [-1,5].

Taking the derivative of f(x), we get:

f'(x) = 6x(x2-1)2

Setting f'(x) = 0, we can solve for the critical points:

x = 0 or x = ±1

We also need to check the endpoints of the interval, x = -1 and x = 5.

Plugging these values into f(x), we get:

f(-1) = 0

f(1) = 0

f(5) = 256

f(0) = -1

So the absolute minimum value of f(x) on the interval [-1,5] is -1, which occurs at x = 0. The absolute maximum value of f(x) on the interval is 256, which occurs at x = 5.

The conditional probability that the 12th card is a heart given that the 4th card is a club and the 20th card is a heart is 11/13.

The conditional probability can be calculated using Bayes' theorem, which states that:

P(A|B and C) = P(B and C|A) * P(A) / P(B and C)

where A is the event that the 12th card is a heart, B is the event that the 4th card is a club, and C is the event that the 20th card is a heart.

To calculate the probability of B and C given A, we can use the multiplication rule:

P(B and C|A) = P(C|A and B) * P(B|A)

where P(C|A and B) is the probability that the 20th card is a heart given that the 12th card is a heart and the 4th card is a club, and P(B|A) is the probability that the 4th card is a club given that the 12th card is a heart.

Since we know that the 12th card is a heart, there are only 51 cards left in the deck and 12 of them are hearts. Therefore, the probability that the 20th card is a heart given that the 12th card is a heart and the 4th card is a club is 11/51.

To calculate the probability that the 4th card is a club given that the 12th card is a heart, we need to consider the remaining cards in the deck. There are 51 cards left after the 11 hearts and the 12th card have been drawn, and 12 of them are clubs. Therefore, the probability that the 4th card is a club given that the 12th card is a heart is 12/51.

Finally, to calculate the probability of B and C, we can again use the multiplication rule:

P(B and C) = P(C|B) * P(B)

where P(C|B) is the probability that the 20th card is a heart given that the 4th card is a club, and P(B) is the probability that the 4th card is a club.

Since there are 51 cards left after the 4th card is drawn, 13 of them are hearts and 12 of them are clubs. Therefore, the probability that the 20th card is a heart given that the 4th card is a club is 13/51.

Putting it all together, we get:

P(A|B and C) = P(C|A and B) * P(B|A) * P(A) / P(C|B) * P(B)
              = (11/51) * (12/51) * (12/51) / (13/51) * (12/51)

The P-value of a two-sided binomial test using the normal distribution to approximate the binomial 0.015 (option a)

To calculate the P-value of the binomial test, we need to use the normal approximation to the binomial distribution. This is appropriate when the sample size is large and the probability of success is not too close to 0 or 1.

Using this approximation, we can calculate the z-score of the observed outcome:

z = (160 - 150)/√(1500.250.75) ≈ 3.20

where we have used the expected value of 150 for the number of dominant offspring, assuming a 3:1 ratio.

We can then use a standard normal distribution table or calculator to find the probability of getting a z-score of 3.20 or higher:

P(z ≥ 3.20) ≈ 0.0007

This is the two-tailed P-value, since we are interested in the probability of getting a deviation from the expected ratio in either direction. To get the one-tailed P-value, we can divide this by 2:

P(z ≥ 3.20)/2 ≈ 0.015

Therefore, the answer is (a) 0.015, which is the closest choice to our calculated P-value.

Here's a recursive formula that has n as an input and the output is (n!)^2, using the terms "recursive f" and "input":

Define the recursive function f(n) as follows: 1. Base case: f(0) = f(1) = 1 2. Recursive case:

[tex]f(n) = n^2 * f(n-1) for n > 1[/tex]

The input for this recursive function is n, and the output is (n!)^2.

The recursive formula that has n as an input and the output is

[tex](n!)^2[/tex]

can be defined as follows:

recursive_f(n) =

- if n = 0 or n = 1, return 1

- otherwise, return n^2 * recursive_f(n-1)

Here, recursive_f is the name of the recursive function, and n is the input. The base case of the recursion is when n is 0 or 1, which returns 1. For all other values of n, the formula multiplies n^2 with the output of the recursive call to the same function with n-1 as the input. This continues until the base case is reached and the recursion stops.

So, for example, if you input n=5 into this formula, it would calculate (5!)^2 = 14400 using the recursive function:

recursive_f(5) = 5^2 * recursive_f(4)
              = 25 * (4^2 * recursive_f(3))
              = 25 * 16 * (3^2 * recursive_f(2))
              = 25 * 16 * 9 * (2^2 * recursive_f(1))
              = 25 * 16 * 9 * 4 * 1

The limit is equal to 0.

To find the derivative of a logarithmic function, we use the formula:

d/dx ln(u) = 1/u * du/dx

where u is the argument of the logarithm.

In this case, we are asked to find the derivative of ln(2x), so u = 2x and du/dx = 2.

Therefore, d/dx ln(2x) = 1/(2x) * 2 = 1/x.

For dy/ds:

y = (1/P) * ln(2x) - x * ln(x) + ln(Vin(x)) - (1/2x) * ln(2x)

We can simplify this expression by using the logarithmic rules:

y = (1/P) * ln(2x) - x * ln(x) + ln(Vin(x)) - ln((2x)^(1/2x))

y = (1/P) * ln(2x) - x * ln(x) + ln(Vin(x)) - ln(e^(ln(2x)/(2x)))

y = (1/P) * ln(2x) - x * ln(x) + ln(Vin(x)) - ln(e^(1/2 * ln(2x)/x))

y = (1/P) * ln(2x) - x * ln(x) + ln(Vin(x)) - ln((2x)^(1/2x))

Now, we can find the derivative of y with respect to s:

dy/ds = (1/P) * d/ds ln(2x) - ln(x) - x * d/ds ln(x) + d/ds ln(Vin(x)) - d/ds ln((2x)^(1/2x))

Using the previous result, we have:

dy/ds = (1/P) * (1/x) - ln(x) - x * (1/x) + (1/Vin(x)) * d/ds Vin(x) - d/ds (1/2x) * ln(2x)

We need to use the chain rule to find d/ds Vin(x):

d/ds Vin(x) = dVin/dx * dx/ds

But we don't have the expression for dVin/dx, so we cannot simplify this further.


To use L'Hospital's Rule, we need to take the derivative of both the numerator and denominator of the limit separately, and then evaluate the limit again.

In this case, we have:

lim x^2 / (e^(1/x) - 1)

Taking the derivative of the numerator gives:

d/dx (x^2) = 2x

Taking the derivative of the denominator gives:

d/dx (e^(1/x) - 1) = -(1/x^2) * e^(1/x)

Now, we can evaluate the limit again:

lim x^2 / (e^(1/x) - 1) = lim (2x) / (-(1/x^2) * e^(1/x))

We can simplify this expression by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by x^2:

lim (2x) / (-(1/x^2) * e^(1/x)) = lim (2) / (-(1/x) * e^(1/x)) = 0

Answer:

A. $6.16

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the amount of tax on Jacob's purchase, we first need to find the total cost of the coat and hat, and then apply the sales tax rate of 8% to that amount.

The cost of the coat is $62.75, and the cost of the hat is $14.25, so the total cost before tax is:

[tex]\implies \sf \$62.75 + \$14.25 = \$77.00[/tex]

To calculate the amount of tax, we need to multiply the total cost by the tax rate of 8%:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\implies \sf \$77.00 \times\: 8\%&=\sf \$77.00 \times \dfrac{8}{100}\\&=\sf \$77.0 \times 0.08\\&=\sf \$6.16\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the amount of tax on Jacob's purchase is $6.16.

The solution of the Fibonacci sequence are L = 1 + √5 / 2.

Suppose L be the limit of Xn when n goes to infinity. We will use the recursive formula for the Fibonacci numbers to find L, we need to guarantee that our operations with the formula.

Notice that Fibonacci sequence was among others used to model the growth of a rabbit population Fn >0 for all n≥0. Then Fn+2 = Fn+1 + Fn > Fn+1.

Hence, dividing by Fn+1, Xn+1= Fn+2/Fn+1 > 1 for all n≥0, that is, Xn>1 for all n≥1.

Then Taking the limit on both sides of the inequality, L≥1

Thus 1/L exists and equal the limit of the sequence 1/Xn=Fn/Fn+1 (by laws of limits).

To find L divide by Fn+1 in Fn+2 = Fn + Fn+1 to get

Fn+2/Fn+1 = Fn/Fn+1 +1.

This equation can be written as Xn+1= 1/Xn +1.

Now Take the limit in both sides to get L=1/L +1. Then L²=1+L, and L²-L-1=0,

Solve for L with the quadratic formula to get:

L = 1 + √5 / 2

L = 1 - √5 / 2

We discard the second solution because it is negative, and we proved above that L>0. Hence

b) The probability that a transmitter will need repairing three times in one year is approximately 0.224.

c) The probability that a transmitter will need repairing at least three times in one year is approximately 0.5716.

d) Therefore, the expected number of reparations in one year is 9.

e) Expected yearly cost = 9 * 250 KD = 2250 KD

a) To calculate the probability that a transmitter will need repairing three times in four months, we can use the Poisson distribution formula:

[tex]P(X = k) = (\lambda^k * e^{-\lambda}) / k![/tex]

where λ is the average number of repairs per four months, and k is the number of repairs we're interested in.

In this case, λ = 1 (since the transmitter requires repair on average once every four months), and k = 3.

Plugging these values into the formula, we get:

[tex]P(X = 3) = (1^3 * e^{-1}) / 3![/tex]

≈ 0.0613

Therefore, the probability that a transmitter will need repairing three times in four months is approximately 0.0613.

b) To calculate the probability that a transmitter will need repairing three times in one year, we need to first convert the average number of repairs per four months to the average number of repairs per year.

Since there are three four-month periods in a year, the average number of repairs per year is:

λ = 3 * 1 = 3

We can then use the Poisson distribution formula with λ = 3 and k = 3:

[tex]P(X = 3) = (3^3 * e^{-3}) / 3![/tex]

≈ 0.224

Therefore, the probability that a transmitter will need repairing three times in one year is approximately 0.224.

c) To calculate the probability that a transmitter will need repairing at least three times in one year, we can use the complementary probability:

P(X ≥ 3) = 1 - P(X < 3)

where P(X < 3) is the probability that the transmitter will need repairing less than three times in one year. Using the Poisson distribution with λ = 3 and k = 0, 1, or 2, we get:

P(X < 3) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

[tex]= (3^0 * e^{-3}) / 0! + (3^1 * e^{-3}) / 1! + (3^2 * e^{-3}) / 2![/tex]

≈ 0.0504 + 0.1512 + 0.2268

≈ 0.4284

So, P(X ≥ 3) = 1 - 0.4284 ≈ 0.5716

Therefore, the probability that a transmitter will need repairing at least three times in one year is approximately 0.5716.

d) The expected number of reparations in one year can be found by multiplying the average number of reparations per four months by the number of four-month periods in a year:

λ = 3 * 3 = 9

Therefore, the expected number of reparations in one year is 9.

e) The expected yearly cost to the company for transmitter repairing can be found by multiplying the expected number of reparations in one year by the cost of each reparation:

Given that, W=(6z-10y)/(5x+y)

The total differential of W=(6z-10y)/(5x+y) is

dW = (6dz - 10dy)/(5x+y) - (6z-10y)(5dx + dy)/(5x+y)²

Let's break this down. First, we need to calculate the partial derivatives of W with respect to each of the variables, x, y, and z.

Partial derivative of W with respect to x:

dW/dx = (6z-10y)(-5)/(5x+y)²

Partial derivative of W with respect to y:

dW/dy = (6z-10y)(-1)/(5x+y)² - (6z-10y)(5dx + dy)/(5x+y)²

Partial derivative of W with respect to z:

dW/dz = (6)/(5x+y) - (6z-10y)(5dx + dy)/(5x+y)²

Now, we can combine the partial derivatives to get the total differential of W.

dW = (6dz - 10dy)/(5x+y) - (6z-10y)(5dx + dy)/(5x+y)²

Hence, the differentiation with respect to x is dW/dx = (6z-10y)(-5)/(5x+y)².

Answer: it will take Omar 62.0 seconds to reach his destination.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We can break down Omar's motion into two components: the motion due to the river's current and the motion due to Omar's paddling. Let's call the angle between Omar's paddling direction and the direction perpendicular to the river's current the "paddling angle" (θ).

The velocity of the river's current (v_r) is 5 m/s to the right (i.e., in the positive x-direction). Omar can paddle at a speed of 4 m/s in still water.

Let's assume that Omar paddles at an angle of θ degrees to the right of the perpendicular to the river's current (i.e., in the positive x-direction). Then, the horizontal component of Omar's velocity (v_x) will be:

scss

Copy code

v_x = 4 cos(θ)

The vertical component of Omar's velocity (v_y) will be:

scss

Copy code

v_y = -4 sin(θ)

Note that the negative sign is there because the positive y-direction is opposite to the direction of Omar's motion.

The total velocity of Omar relative to the river (v_omar) will be the vector sum of the velocities due to paddling and due to the river's current:

scss

Copy code

v_omar = (4 cos(θ) - 5) i - 4 sin(θ) j

where i and j are unit vectors in the x and y directions, respectively.

Omar's destination is located at an angle of 150 degrees (S 60 W) from his starting position. Let's call the angle between the direction of Omar's velocity relative to the river and the direction to his destination the "steering angle" (φ).

The steering angle φ can be found by taking the arctan of the y-component of the displacement vector divided by the x-component of the displacement vector:

scss

Copy code

φ = arctan((220 sin(150)) / (220 cos(150)))

 = arctan(-tan(30))

 = -30 degrees

The negative sign is there because the positive x-direction is opposite to the direction to Omar's destination.

Therefore, the angle at which Omar should paddle (θ) can be found by adding the paddling angle (θ) and the steering angle (φ):

scss

Copy code

θ = -30 degrees + arccos(5/4)

 = 98.7 degrees

So, Omar should paddle at an angle of 98.7 degrees to the right of the perpendicular to the river's current to reach his destination.

b) How long will the trip take to reach his destination?

The distance that Omar needs to travel is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs of 220 meters (the width of the river) and 220 sin(30) = 110 meters (the distance to his destination along the river). Therefore, the distance that Omar needs to travel is:

scss

Copy code

d = sqrt((220)^2 + (220 sin(30))^2)

 = 246.9 meters

The time that it will take Omar to travel this distance can be found by dividing the distance by his speed:

Copy code

t = d / (4 cos(θ) - 5)

 = 62.0 seconds

Therefore, it will take Omar 62.0 seconds to reach his destination.

Answer: C. 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale 1: 1 inch = 25 miles

2.8 x 25 = 70

2.8 inches = 70 miles

Scale 2: 1 inch = 40 miles

1.75 inches x 40 = 70

The nurse need select a sample of at least 7 infants to be 90% confident that the true mean birth weight is within 4 ounces of the sample mean.

To estimate the sample size needed for the nurse at the local hospital to be 90% confident that the true mean birth weight of infants is within 4 ounces of the sample mean, we need to use the following formula for sample size:
n = [tex]([/tex]Z * σ [tex]/[/tex]Z[tex])^2[/tex]
where n is the sample size, Z is the z-score corresponding to the desired confidence level, σ is the known standard deviation of the population, and E is the margin of error (the difference between the true mean and the sample mean).

In this case, we are given:
- 90% confidence level, which corresponds to a z-score of 1.645
- Standard deviation (σ) = 6 ounces
- Margin of error (E) = 4 ounces

Now, we can plug these values into the formula:
[tex]n = (1.645 * 6 / 4)^2[/tex]
[tex]n = (9.87 / 4)^2[/tex]
[tex]n = (2.4675)^2[/tex]
n ≈ 6.08

Since we cannot have a fraction of a sample, we round up to the nearest whole number. Therefore, the nurse must select a sample of at least 7 infants to be 90% confident that the true mean is within 4 ounces of the sample mean.

Answer: 14 ounces of flour

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a proportion to solve this problem using ratios.

The ratio of muffins to flour is 25:35, or simplified, 5:7. So for every 5 muffins, we need 7 ounces of flour.

Now we can multiply the ratio by 2, to get 10 muffins and the respective ounces of flour required.

                 5 : 7

             x2      x2

                10 : 14

So, we get the ratio 10:14.

So, for every 10 muffins, we need 14 ounces of flour.

The theoretical probability of landing on pink is one fourth, and the experimental probability is 30%.

When we talk about probability, all our minds should go the fact that event may occur or may not occur as in this case.

Since the 4 sections are equal, we have that:

p = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%.

The experimental probability is calculated considering previous experiments.

For the  20 trials, 6 resulted in pink, we can show this as:

p = 6/20 = 0.3 = 30%.

Thus the statement that we can regard as correct or proper is:

The theoretical probability of landing on pink is one fourth, and the experimental probability is 30%.

The infinite series 8 + 8/2 + 8/4 + 8/8 + 8/16 + .... using sigma notation is [tex]\sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty}[/tex]  8/2ⁿ = 16.

The given infinite series can be written using sigma notation as follows:

[tex]\sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty}[/tex] 8/2ⁿ

Here, the lower limit of summation is 0 since the first term of the series corresponds to n=0. The variable n represents the index of summation and takes integer values starting from 0 and increasing by 1 until infinity. The expression 8/2ⁿ represents each term of the series.

The term 8/2ⁿ can be simplified as [tex]2^{3-n}[/tex], which indicates that each term is obtained by dividing 8 by a power of 2, with the power decreasing by 1 in each successive term.

Therefore, the given series can be expressed as an infinite geometric series with first term a=8 and common ratio r=1/2. The formula for the sum of an infinite geometric series can be used to find the sum of the given series as:

sum = a/(1-r) = 8/(1-1/2) = 16
