Answer:
A. Normal
B. Between 40.08 minutes and 43.92 minutes.
C. About 95 percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population mean number of minutes of concentration and about 5 percent will not contain the true population mean number of minutes of concentration.
Step-by-step explanation:
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.
For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]
x% confidence interval:
A confidence interval is built from a sample, has bounds a and b, and has a confidence level of x%. It means that we are x% confident that the population mean is between a and b.
Question A:
By the Central Limit Theorem, a normal distribution.
Question B:
We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:
[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.025[/tex]
Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].
That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.025 = 0.975[/tex], so Z = 1.96.
Now, find the margin of error M as such
[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.
[tex]M = 1.96\frac{12}{\sqrt{150}} = 1.92[/tex]
The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 42 - 1.92 = 40.08 minutes
The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 42 + 1.92 = 43.92 minutes
Between 40.08 minutes and 43.92 minutes.
Question C:
x% confidence interval -> x% will contain the true population mean, (100-x)% wont.
So, 95% confidence interval:
About 95 percent of these confidence intervals will contain the true population mean number of minutes of concentration and about 5 percent will not contain the true population mean number of minutes of concentration.

Mr. Brown has 1/4pan of lasagna left in the refrigerator. He wants to cut the lasagna into equal slices so he can have it for dinner for 3 nights. What fraction of the whole lasagna will he eat each night?
Answer:
1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
He has a 1/4 pan left and wants to divide that into 3 equal pieces. So in night he will eat 1/3 of what he has left from the 1/4 pan. To figure out how much one slice is from an entire pan:
1/4 * 1/3 = 1/12

Answer:
x = 286.01 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Height of the ramp, H = 20 inches
Angle of elevation, [tex]\theta=4^{\circ}[/tex]
We need to find the value of x. It can be solved using trigonometry as follow :
[tex]\tan\theta=\dfrac{P}{B}[/tex]
Where
P is perpendicular and B is base
So,
[tex]\tan(4)=\dfrac{20}{x}\\\\x=\dfrac{20}{\tan(4)}\\\\x=286.01\ in[/tex]
So, the value of x is equal to 286.01 inches.

Element X is a radioactive isotope such that every 26 years, its mass decreases by half. Given that the initial mass of a sample of Element X is 390 grams, how long would it be until the mass of the sample reached 260 grams, to the nearest tenth of a year?
Answer:
It will take 15.029 years for element X to reach mass of 260 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
The half life period of radioactive element X is 26 years
The initial mass of radioactive element X is 260 grams
Elapsed time = half life * log (beginning amount /ending amount)/log 2
Substituting the given values, we get
Elapsed time = 26 * log (390/260)/log 2
= 15.209 years

n a study to investigate whether vitamin C will prevent colds, 400 subjects are assigned at random to one of two groups. The experimental group takes a vitamin C tablet daily, while the control group takes a placebo. At the end of the experiment, the researchers calculate the difference between the percentage of subjects in the two groups who were free of colds. This difference is statistically significant (P=0.03) in favor of the vitamin C group.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The aim of this question is to see if we can infer and conclude that vitamin C has a good impact in preventing colds based on the evidence provided.
Null hypothesis: Vitamin C has no effect on preventing colds.
Alternative hypothesis: Vitamin C has a strong effect on preventing colds.
Assuming, significance level = 0.05
Since the p-value for the difference is 0.03 which is less than 0.05.
Hence, the null hypothesis is rejected (which is there is no effect of vitamin C).
As a result, it can be concluded that Vitamin C has a major impact on the prevention of colds.

Suppose that in a random selection of 100 colored candies, 21% of them are blue. The candy company claims that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 29%. Use the 0.01 significance level to test that claim.
Answer:
The pvalue of the test is 0.0784 > 0.01, which means that at this significance level, we do not reject the null hypothesis that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 29%.
Step-by-step explanation:
The candy company claims that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 29%.
This means that the null hypothesis is:
[tex]H_{0}: p = 0.29[/tex]
We want to test the hypothesis that this is true, so the alternate hypothesis is:
[tex]H_{a}: p \neq 0.29[/tex]
The test statistic is:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.
0.29 is tested at the null hypothesis:
This means that [tex]\mu = 0.29, \sigma = \sqrt{0.29*0.71}[/tex]
Suppose that in a random selection of 100 colored candies, 21% of them are blue.
This means that [tex]n = 100, X = 0.21[/tex]
Value of the test statistic:
[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]
[tex]z = \frac{0.21 - 0.29}{\frac{\sqrt{0.29*0.71}}{\sqrt{100}}}[/tex]
[tex]z = -1.76[/tex]
Pvalue of the test:
The pvalue of the test is the probability of the sample proportion differing at least 0.21 - 0.29 = 0.08 from the population proportion, which is 2 multiplied by the pvalue of Z = -1.76.
Looking at the z-table, z = -1.76 has a pvalue of 0.0392
2*0.0392 = 0.0784
The pvalue of the test is 0.0784 > 0.01, which means that at this significance level, we do not reject the null hypothesis that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 29%.

Answer:
c = 85 in is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
a = 36 in
b = 77 in
c = ?
According to the Pythagoras theorem,
a² + b² = c²
36² + 77² = c²
1296 + 5929 = c²
7225 = c²
c = 85 in
∴ c = 85 in is the length of the missing leg.
