The distribution of student scores on the quantitative section of the SATs have an approximately normal distribution with a mean score of 501 points, and a standard deviation of 85 points. If you randomly select one student who has taken the SAT, what is the probability that the student will have scored greater than 600 points on the quantitative section of the SATs

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.122 = 12.2% probability that the student will have scored greater than 600 points on the quantitative section of the SATs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mean score of 501 points, and a standard deviation of 85 points.

This means that [tex]\mu = 501, \sigma = 85[/tex]

What is the probability that the student will have scored greater than 600 points on the quantitative section of the SATs?

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 600. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{600 - 501}{85}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.165[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.165[/tex] has a p-value of 0.878.

1 - 0.878 = 0.122

0.122 = 12.2% probability that the student will have scored greater than 600 points on the quantitative section of the SATs.

Answer:

66.48% of full-term babies are between 19 and 21 inches long at birth

Normal Probability Distribution:

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

Mean length of 20.5 inches and a standard deviation of 0.90 inches.

This means that [tex]\mu = 20.5, \sigma = 0.9[/tex]

What percentage of full-term babies are between 19 and 21 inches long at birth?

The proportion is the p-value of Z when X = 21 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 19. Then

X = 21

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{21 - 20.5}{0.9}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.56[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.56[/tex] has a p-value of 0.7123

X = 19

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{19 - 20.5}{0.9}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.67[/tex]

[tex]Z = -1.67[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0475

0.7123 - 0.0475 = 0.6648

0.6648*100% = 66.48%

66.48% of full-term babies are between 19 and 21 inches long at birth

Step-by-step explanation:

A newly electric vehicle is designed to have a battery range of 400 miles and a standard deviation of 20 miles. assume the battery range distribution is normally distributed. the company tests 39 vehicles to determine if the battery is operating at specifications. the average range of the 39 vehicles is 398 vehicles with a standard deviation of 20 miles. find the 95% confidence interval for average battery range of the newly produced vehicle.
a) (393.72 , 406.28)
b) (391.52, 404.48
c) (393.52, 406.48)
d) (391.72, 404.28)

Answers

Answer:

b) (391.52, 404.48)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 39 - 1 = 38

95% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 38 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.0244

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.0244\frac{20}{\sqrt{39}} = 6.48[/tex]

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 398 - 6.48 = 391.52.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 398 + 6.48 = 404.48.

The CI is (391.52, 404.58), and the correct answer is given by option B.

What is the area of this composite figure

36.56cm2

Answers

Answer:

D. 36.56 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The composite figure is composed of a rectangle and two semicircles.

The two semicircles makes 1 full circle.

Thus:

Area of the composite figure = area of rectangle + area of circle

= L*W + πr²

L = 6 cm

W = 4 cm

r = ½(4) = 2 cm

Area = 6*4 + π*2²

Area = 24 + 12.56

Area = 36.56 cm²

Tickets to a local movie were sold at $6.00 for adults and $4.50 for students. If 240
tickets were sold for a total of $1275.00, how many student tickets were sold?

Answers

Answer:Set it up as two equations.  Start off by stating that x= the number of adult tickets, and y= the number of student tickets.

6x+4.5y=2175

x+y=430

State that y = 430-x, and substitute it into the second equation 6x +4.5(430-x)= 2175.

Solve for x.  Then plug in what you get for x into the x+y=430 equation and solve for y.  Your number of adult tickets should equal 160, and your number of child tickets should equal 270.

[tex]RT=2x-2 [/tex]

[tex]QS=21[/tex]

[tex]ST=3x-1[/tex]

Using basic proportionality theorem (BPT), we get

[tex]\dfrac{12}{2x-2}=\dfrac{21}{3x-1}[/tex]

On cross multiplication, we get

Answers

For each probability, transform the normal random variable X with mean 19 and s.d. 4.04 to a standard normal random variable Z with mean 0 and s.d. 1, using the rule

Z = (X - 19) / 4.04

(a) Pr[15 ≤ X ≤ 20] = Pr[(15 - 19)/4.04 ≤ (X - 19)/4.04 ≤ (20 - 19)/4.04]

… ≈ Pr[-0.9901 ≤ Z ≤ 0.2475]

… ≈ Pr[Z ≤ 0.2475] - Pr[Z ≤ -0.9901]

(since Z is a continuous random variable)

… ≈ 0.4367

(b) Pr[X > 20] = Pr[(X - 19)/4.04 > (20 - 19)/4.04]

… ≈ Pr[Z > 0.2475]

One way of checking the effect of undercoverage, nonresponse, and other sources of error in a sample survey is to compare the sample with known demographic facts about the population.

Is the value 13.9% a parameter or a statistic?
a. 13.9% is a parameter derived from a national Census that sampled 32,576,000 adults
b. 13.9% is a statistic derived from a national Census that sampled 32,576,000 adults
c. 13.9% is a parameter derived from a national Census that includes all individuals in a population
d. 13.9% is a statistic derived from a national Census that includes all individuals in a population.

Answers

Answer: Choice C

13.9% is a parameter derived from a national Census that includes all individuals in a population

======================================================

Explanation:

A census is a term in statistics that means that you survey or poll every individual in the population. In this case, the population is the set of people in the United States. As you can probably guess, a census takes a very long time, requiring lots of money and a lot of people to conduct it. The US census takes place every 10 years. The last of which happened in 2020. Despite the long time gap, census workers are always gearing up in the background getting ready for the next census on the horizon (since it's such a massive undertaking).

Because taking a census in statistics requires so much energy, it's often more effective to form a sample and try to see what the characteristics of that sample are like. If the sample is representative enough (ie is unbiased), then the sample statistics should be fairly close to the parameter counterparts. In this situation, we could maybe randomly select 10 states of the 50 total, and then ask everyone in those states what their ethnicity is. In this case, we're using a cluster sampling technique.

For many centuries, most people assumed the Sun and other stars orbited—or moved around—our planet, Earth. This is called the geocentric model of the solar system. (Geo means “Earth,” so geocentric means “Earth-centered.”) It is easy to see why so many people thought this. As we look at the sky during the day, the Sun appears to move in an arc over our heads. Throughout the year, the other stars also appear to change their positions in the night sky.
Today, however, scientists have rejected the geocentric
model in favor of the heliocentric model. The heliocentric
model places the Sun at the center of the solar system.
(Helio means “Sun,” so heliocentric means
“Sun-centered.”) The invention of the telescope around the
year 1600 gave scientists a much more accurate view of
space from Earth. Using measurements made while looking
through telescopes, scientists such as Galileo Galilei
demonstrated the truth of the heliocentric model. The Sun is
the center of the solar system.
What is the Sun?
Earth’s Sun may seem different to us, but it is a star like all the other stars located outside the solar system. A star is an extremely hot, dense mass of gases. As these gases burn, the star gives off visible light, as well as other charged particles. Most of the energy that reaches our planet, including light and heat, comes from the Sun.
The Sun is actually medium-sized compared to other stars. Still, it is the most massive object in the solar system. The Sun has enough mass that its gravitational pull holds the planets and other objects in the solar system in orbit. As all of the other objects in the solar system orbit the Sun, the Sun rotates, or spins, about its axis.

We can use x as angle MP.

a² + b² = c²

10²+ 7² = x²

100 + 49 = x²

x² = 149

Take the square root to get

x = √(149)

Now do the Pythagorean Theorem for Triangle MNP. We can again use x for angle NP.

a² + b² = c²
