Thompson and Thompson is a steel bolts manufacturing company. Their current steel bolts have a mean diameter of 136 millimeters, and a variance of 36. If a random sample of 50 steel bolts is selected, what is the probability that the sample mean would differ from the population mean by greater than 1.9 millimeters

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.025 = 2.5% probability that the sample mean would differ from the population mean by greater than 1.9 millimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean diameter of 136 millimeters, and a variance of 36.

This means that [tex]\mu = 136, \sigma = \sqrt{36} = 6[/tex]

Sample of 50:

This means that [tex]n = 50, s = \frac{6}{\sqrt{50}} = 0.8485[/tex]

What is the probability that the sample mean would differ from the population mean by greater than 1.9 millimeters?

This is the probability that it is less than 136 - 1.9 = 134.1 millimeters or more than 136 + 1.9 = 137.9 millimeters. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, there probabilities are equal, which means that we can find one of them and multiply by two.

Probability that it is less than 134.1 millimeters:

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 134.1. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{134.1 - 136}{0.8485}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.24[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.24[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.0125

2*0.0125 = 0.025

0.025 = 2.5% probability that the sample mean would differ from the population mean by greater than 1.9 millimeters

Answer:

It is 47.5 or 47 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for volume of a prism is base x height.

The base is the area of the rectangle at the bottom. The area of a rectangle is, of course, length times width, so 2.5 x 4=10.

So, the base is 10.

Now, the second part of the formula is height.

The height is 4.75.

Now, do the formula: Base x height : 10 x4.75

The answer is 47.5.

To find:

The value of matrix C.

Solution:

Let [tex]A=\begin{bmatrix}-18&3&5\end{bmatrix},B=\begin{bmatrix}-22&1&12\end{bmatrix}[/tex]. Then the given equation can be rewritten as

[tex]A-C=B[/tex]

On substituting the values of the matrices, we get

[tex]C=\begin{bmatrix}-18&3&5\end{bmatrix}-\begin{bmatrix}-22&1&12\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]C=\begin{bmatrix}-18-(-22)&3-1&5-12\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]C=\begin{bmatrix}-18+22&2&-7\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

[tex]C=\begin{bmatrix}-4&2&-7\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

The area of a rectangular living room is 264 square feet. The length of the room is 2 feet less than twice the width.
What is the width of the living room in feet?

Answers

Answer:

  12 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the room be represented by w. Then the length is (2w-2), and the area is ...

  A = LW

  264 = (2w-2)w

  132 = w² -w . . . . . . . divide by 2, eliminate parentheses

  132.25 = w² -w +.25 . . . . . add (-1/2)² to complete the square

  √132.25 = w -0.5 . . . . . take the square root

  0.5 +11.5 = w = 12 . . . . . add 0.5; use the positive root

The width of the living room is 12 feet.

k = 45 . . . miles per hourk = 1/45 . . . hours per mile

Step-by-step explanation:

One way we can relate distance and time is ...

  time = k × distance

Then the value of k (the constant of proportionality) is ...

  k = time/distance = 4 hours/(180 miles)

  k = (1/45) hours/mile

__

Another way we can relate the variables is ...

  distance = k × time

Then the value of k (the constant of proportionality) is ...

  k = distance/time = (180 miles)/(4 hours)

  k = 45 miles/hour

5. A company intends to collect a random sample of size n from a population
with population proportion of interest p. Which of the following situations would
result in the smallest standard deviation of the sampling distribution of p?

Answers

Answer:D

Step-by-step explanation:

The situations that would result in the smallest standard deviation of p is; The population proportion p ≠ 0.5, and the sample size is n.

What is the standard deviation?

The formula for the standard deviation here is;

SD = √(n(p(1 - p))

Now, for the standard deviation to be maximum, it means that p = 0.5 and as such 1 - p will also be 0.5.

However, for Standard deviation to be smallest, then it means that p ≠ 0.5.

Secondly, for the sample size, it will have to remain as n and not 2n because when we say 2n, we are increasing the sample size which will in turn increase the standard deviation.
