Answer 1

Answer:

a

The confidence interval for the population variance is ​[tex] 5.49 < \sigma^2 < 37.02 [/tex]  

The correct option is  C

b

The confidence interval for the population standard deviation is [tex] 2.34 < \sigma < 6.08 [/tex]

The correct option is  A

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The sample size is  n =  14

    The standard deviation is  [tex]s = \$3.42[/tex]

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

     [tex]df =  14 -1[/tex]

=>   [tex]df =  13 [/tex]    

Given that the confidence level is  98%  then that level of significance is  

     [tex]\alpha = (100 -98) \%[/tex]

=>  [tex]\alpha = 0.02[/tex]

Generally the 98% confidence interval for the variance  is mathematically represented as

     [tex]\frac{(n- 1) s^2}{x^2 _{[\frac{\alpha }{2} , df]}}  < \sigma^2 < \frac{(n- 1) s^2}{x^2 _{[1- \frac{\alpha }{2} , df]}}[/tex]

=> [tex]\frac{(14- 1) (3.42)^2}{x^2 _{[\frac{0.02 }{2} , 13]}}  < \sigma^2 < \frac{(14- 1) (3.42)^2}{x^2 _{[1- \frac{0.02 }{2} , 13]}}[/tex]

From the chi -distribution table  

     [tex]x^2 _{[1- \frac{0.02 }{2} , 13]} = 4.107[/tex]

and

    [tex]x^2 _{[\frac{0.02 }{2} , 13]} = 27.689[/tex]

So

=> [tex]\frac{(14- 1) (3.42)^2}{27.689}  < \sigma^2 < \frac{(14- 1) (3.42)^2}{4.107}[/tex]    

=> [tex] 5.49 < \sigma^2 < 37.02 [/tex]    

Generally the 98% confidence interval for the standard deviation   is mathematically represented as

   [tex]\sqrt{\frac{(n- 1) s^2}{x^2 _{[\frac{\alpha }{2} , df]}}}   < \sigma <\sqrt{ \frac{(n- 1) s^2}{x^2 _{[1- \frac{\alpha }{2} , df]}}}[/tex]

=> [tex]\sqrt{5.49}  < \sigma < \sqrt{37.02 }[/tex]

=> [tex] 2.34 < \sigma < 6.08 [/tex]

2.) What is the perimeter of a polygon with vertices at (-3, 1), (5, 1), (-3, 4), (5, 4)?

Answers

Answer:

33.1 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the sides of an shape when given vertices is

= √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

When we have:(x1, y1) and (x2, y2)

(-3, 1), (5, 1), (-3, 4), (5, 4)

For (-3, 1), (5, 1)

= √(5 - (-3))² + (1 -1)²

= √8² + 0²

= √64

= 8 units

For (5, 1), (-3, 4)

= √(-3 - 5)² + (4 - 1)²

= √-8² + 3²

= √64 + 9

= √73 units

For (-3, 4), (5, 4)

= √(5 - (-3))² + (4 - 4)²

= √8² + 0²

= √64

= 8 units

For (-3, 1), (5, 4)

= √(-3 - 5)² + (4- 1)²

= √8² + 3²

= √64 + 9

= √ 73 units

Perimeter of the Polygon:

=( 8 + √73 + 8 + √73) units

= 33.088007491 units

Restless Leg Syndrome and Fibromyalgia
People with restless leg syndrome have a strong urge to move their legs to stop uncomfortable sensations. People with fibromyalgia suffer pain and tenderness in joints throughout the body. A recent study indicates that people with fibromyalgia are much more likely to have restless leg syndrome than people without the disease. The study indicates that, for people with fibromyalgia, the probability is 0.33 of having restless leg syndrome, while for people without fibromyalgia, the probability is 0.03. About 2% of the population has fibromyalgia. Create a tree diagram from this information and use it to find the probability that a person with restless leg syndrome has fibromyalgia.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that a person with restless leg syndrome has fibromyalgia is 0.183.

Step-by-step explanation:

Denote the events as follows:

F = a person with fibromyalgia

R = a person having restless leg syndrome

The information provided is as follows:

P (R | F) = 0.33

P (R | F') = 0.03

P (F) = 0.02

Consider the tree diagram attached below.

Compute the probability that a person with restless leg syndrome has fibromyalgia as follows:

[tex]P(F|R)=\frac{P(R|F)P(F)}{P(R|F)P(F)+P(R|F')P(F')}[/tex]

            [tex]=\frac{(0.33\times 0.02)}{(0.33\times 0.02)+(0.03\times 0.98)}\\\\=\frac{0.0066}{0.0066+0.0294}\\\\=0.183333\\\\\approx 0.183[/tex]

Thus, the probability that a person with restless leg syndrome has fibromyalgia is 0.183.

C. An arithmetic sequence is an exponential function whose domain is restricted to the set of non-negative integers.
D. A geometric sequence is an exponential function whose domain is restricted to the set of non-negative integers.

Answers

Answer:

A and D.  

Step-by-step explanation:

A sequence is a set of the objects or numbers in a specific order. It is a function whose domain is a set of natural numbers or non-negative integers i.e. {1, 2, 3,..}

(A)

"An arithmetic sequence is a linear function whose domain is restricted to the set of non-negative integers."  

The general form an arithmetic sequence is:

[tex]a_{n}=a_{1}+(n-1)d[/tex]

The function is linear. The sequence consists of either numbers that are increasing or decreasing based on the value of d, the common difference.

So, the statement provided is True.

(D)

"A geometric sequence is an exponential function whose domain is restricted to the set of non-negative integers."

The general form an geometric sequence is:

[tex]a_{n}=a_{1}\cdot r^{n-1}[/tex]

The function is exponential. The sequence consists of either numbers that are exponentially increasing or decreasing by the factor r, the common ratio.

So, the statement provided is True.

Filling in the given value and solving for "sides", we get ...

  5220 = (sides -2)180

--------- = ----------

18+27      20+x

Simplify

18            20

--------- = ----------

45         20+x

Using cross products

18 *(20+x) = 20*45

18 ( 20+x) = 900

Divide each side by 18

18 /18*(20+x) = 900/18

20+x =50

Subtract 20 from each side

20+x-20 = 50-20

x=30

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this type of problem you need to cross multiply.So you get the pairs which are 18 and 20 and 27 and x so the equation looks like 18/20=27/x so 18 times x is 18x and 20 times 27 is 540 so the equation is now 18c=540 then you divide both sides by 18 so x will be isolated which means x will be by itself so 18x divided by 18 is x and 540 divided by 18 is 30 so the equation is now x=30

A food-protection agency counts the number of insect heads found per 100-gram batch of wheat flour. The researchers have 500 batches, and they want to know whether the frequency of insect heads in batches follows a distribution called a Poisson distribution. To generate the expected frequencies of batches with different numbers of insect heads under a Poisson distribution, they had to estimate the mean number of insect heads per batch from the data. The 500 batches included at least 5 batches having 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 insect heads. No batches had more than four heads. Given this information, there are_____classes (k).

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is k = 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Chi-square goodness of fit test would be used to determine whether the frequency of insect heads in batches follows a distribution called a Poisson distribution.

The hypothesis for the test can be defined as follows:

H₀: The frequency of insect heads in batches does not follows a Poisson distribution.

Hₐ: The frequency of insect heads in batches follows a Poisson distribution.

Assume that the significance level of the test is, α = 0.05.

The Chi-square test statistic is given by:

[tex]\chi^{2}=\sum\limits^{k}_{i=1}\frac{(O_{i}-E_{i})^{2}}{E_{i}}[/tex]

It is provided that the 500 batches included at least 5 batches having 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 insect heads. No batches had more than four heads.

So, the number of classes or categories are, k = 5.

Thus, the correct answer is k = 5.
