birth weights in norway are normally distributed with a mean of 3570 g and a standard deviation of 500g. if the hospital officials plan to require special treatment for the lightest 3% of newborn babies, what birth weight seperates those requiring special treatment from those who do not

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2630 g

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Given that:

mean (μ) = 3750 g

Standard deviation (σ) = 500

Suppose the hospital officials demand special treatment with a percentage of  lightest 3% (0.03) for newborn babies;

Then, the weight of birth that differentiates the babies that needed special treatment from those that do not can be computed as follows;

P(Z < z₁) = 0.03

Using the Excel Formula; =NORMSINV(0.03) = -1.88

z₁ = - 1.88

Using the test statistics z₁ formula:

[tex]z_1 = \dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]-1.88 = \dfrac{X-3570}{500}[/tex]

By cross multiply, we have:

-1.88 × 500 = X - 3570

-940 = X - 3570

-X = -3570 + 940

-X = -2630

X = 2630 g

Hence, 2630 g is the required weight of birth   that differentiates the babies that needed special treatment from those that do not

Vertical stretch by a factor of 3; vertical translation up 4 units; horizontal translation left 2 units

Answers

Answer:

The answer here depends on whether you want to do them individually or collectively.  If we go individually, then:

The vertical scaling gives us y = 3x³

The vertical translation gives us y = x³ + 4

The horizontal translation gives us y = (x + 2)³

On the other hand, if we want to apply all three at the same time, we get:

starting with a vertical scaling of 3, we get:

start with scaling: y = 3x³

add vertical translation: y = 3x³ + 4

and finally add horizontal translation: y = 3(x + 2)³ + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]p \to[/tex] Peter hits

[tex]r \to[/tex] Mary hits

Required

The probability that Mary wins

From the question, we understand that Peter throws the first.

If Mary is to win, then Peter has to lose his throw

Using the complement rule, the probability that Peter misses is:

[tex]p' = 1 - p[/tex]

So, the probability that Mary wins is:

[tex]P(Mary) = p' * r[/tex]

This gives:

What is the radius in the eqution below? (x - 5) ^ 2 + (y + 3) ^ 2 = 49

Answers

Answer:

7.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

Where

(h, k) is the center and r is the radius, so we only need to work with r.

The expression states that

r² = 49 or the radius squared is equal to 49. So solve for r to find the radius.

r² = 49

Take the square root.

r = 7

The radius of the equation is 7.

A sample of 1600 computer chips revealed that 43% of the chips fail in the first 1000 hours of their use. The company's promotional literature states that 44% of the chips fail in the first 1000 hours of their use. The quality control manager wants to test the claim that the actual percentage that fail is below the stated percentage. Is there enough evidence at the 0.05 level to support the manager's claim

Answers

Answer:

The p-value of the test is 0.209 > 0.05, which means that there is not enough evidence at the 0.05 level to support the manager's claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

The company's promotional literature states that 44% of the chips fail in the first 1000 hours of their use. The quality control manager wants to test the claim that the actual percentage that fail is below the stated percentage.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of 44%, the stated value. So

[tex]H_0: p = 0.44[/tex]

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if the proportion is below the stated value, that is, it is less than 0.44. So

[tex]H_1: p < 0.44[/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.

0.44 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.44, \sigma = \sqrt{0.44*0.56}[/tex]

A sample of 1600 computer chips revealed that 43% of the chips fail in the first 1000 hours of their use.

This means that [tex]n = 1600, X = 0.43[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{0.43 - 0.44}{\frac{\sqrt{0.44*0.56}}{\sqrt{1600}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -0.81[/tex]

P-value of the test:

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample proportion below 0.43, which is the p-value of z = -0.81.

Looking at the z-table, z = -0.81 has a p-value of 0.209.

The p-value of the test is 0.209 > 0.05, which means that there is not enough evidence at the 0.05 level to support the manager's claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

If p is  inversely proportional to Q and P is 6 when q = 4, then;

p = k/q

6 = k/4

k = 6*4

k = 24

To get P when q = 3

Recall;

p = k/q

p = 24/3

p = 8

Hence the required value of p is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

He bought 3/8 of a pound and ate 1/9 of it. The equation of this problem would be:

Cancel the 3 on the numerator by dividing the denominator by 3.

Time for day 3: let it be denoted by a variable ,say T.

Total Time= 17.5

(Time for day 1 ) + (Time for day 2) +(Time for day 3) =17.5

4.5 + (4.5×2.5) + T = 17.5

4.5+11.25+T =17.5

15.75+T=17.5

T=17.5-15.75

The rational root of the function  f(x) = x³ - 3x² + 2 is - 1.

What is a polynomial?

A polynomial is an algebraic expression.

A polynomial of degree n in variable x can be written as,

a₀xⁿ + a₁xⁿ⁻¹ + a₂xⁿ⁻² +...+ aₙ.

Given, A polynomial function of degree three f(x) = x³ - 3x² + 2.

Now, The roots of the function is when f(a) = 0.

The last term is, 2, Hence the roots must be,

± 1, ± 2, The factors of 2.

f(-1) = - 2.

f(1) = 0.

f(-2) = - 18.

f(2) = - 2.

So, The only rational root is x = - 1 and the other roots are irrational and can be obtained by the obtained quadratic equation after factoring or by long division.

An airplane flying into a headwind travels the -mile flying distance between Indianapolis, Indiana, and Phoenix, Arizona, in hours. On the return flight, the airplane travels this distance in hours and minutes. Find the airspeed of the plane and the speed of the wind, assuming that both remain constant.

Answers

Answer:

the airspeed of the plane = 660 miles/hr

the speed of the wind = 60 miles/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

The values are missing in the given information in the question.

To able to solve this question, we will make some assumptions.

Let's assume that:

The airplane heading into the wind travels 1800 miles in 3 hours.

While returning via the same distance, it travels 2 hours 30 minutes.

We are to determine the plane's airspeed as well as the wind speed.

First, let us say that the speed of the plane is p and the wind speed is q

during the time the plane is traveling for 1800 miles in 3 hrs.

Then, we can say

3p -3q = 1800 ----- (1)

However, in  2hours 30 minutes, we have 2.5 hours

So, when the plane is returning, we have the following equation:

2.5p + 2.5q = 1800 ---- (2)

So, to find p and q, we can use the elimination method.

Simply by multiplying equation (1) with 5 and equation (2) with 6

 (5)3p    -  (5)3q     = (5) 1800

 (6)2.5p  + (6)2.5q = (6) 1800            

  15p -  15q  = 9000

+

 15p + 15q   = 10800      

 30p -  0     = 19800      

30p = 19800

p = 19800/30

p = 660

Since p = 660, then from equation (1) we can obtain the value of q:

So; Using equation (1):

3p -3q = 1800

3(660) - 3q = 1800

1980 - 3q = 1800

-3q = 1800 - 1980

-3q = -180

q = 180/3

q = 60

Therefore, the airspeed of the plane = 660 miles/hr

the speed of the wind = 60 miles/hr
