The following are the last 7 days adjusted closing stock prices (in $) for Citigroup: 22, 25, 20, 15, 40, 55, 28 A) Compute the 25th percentile by hand and interpret. B) Compute the sample mean and median by hand. What is the shape of the data set?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(A) The 25th percentile is 20.

(B) The mean of the data set is 20 and the median of the data set is 25. The data set is left-skewed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data set arranged in ascending order is:

S = {15, 20, 22, 25, 28, 40, 55}

(A)

Compute the 25th percentile as follows:

[tex]25^{th} \text{Percentile}=[\frac{n+1}{4}]^{th}obs.\\\\=[\frac{7+1}{4}]^{th}obs.\\\\=2^{nd}obs.\\\\=20[/tex]

Thus, the 25th percentile is 20. This value implies that exactly 25% of the observations are less than 20.

(B)

Compute the sample mean as follows:

[tex]\text{Mean}=\frac{22+25+20+15+40+55+28}{7}=\frac{205}{7}=29.29[/tex]

Compute the median as follows:

For a set with odd number of observations, the median value if the middle value.

The middle value is 25.

Thus, the mean of the data set is 20 and the median of the data set is 25.

The Mean < Median.

This implies that the data set is left-skewed.

A designer plans to create a new pattern of stitching a triangular piece of fabric shown in the figure above. She will stitch fabric in a straight line from the vertices of the triangle to the circumcenter of the triangle, located at point C, and then stitch an additional line of fabric back from the circumcenter to each vertex. How much fabric, in inches, will she need in total to create the design? (Note: Answer should be a whole number.)

Answers

Answer:

54

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumcenter is the middle to each vertex. So since they gave you 9 in. and you have to go back and forth on each line, that is 18 in. per line. Considering there are three lines, add all of them together (Or multiple 18 by 3) to get 54 in.

Answer:

D or answer 4                   y=-5/2x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

Well we can first start of by finding the y-intercept.

Note that when x=0, you can find your y-intercept.

Knowing this, and looking at the table, 7 is the y-intercept because when y=7, x=0.

So we can eliminate choices 'a' and 'c,' or answers 1 and 3, because they have the y-intercept as -7, when it's just 7.

Please know that in the equation:

y = mx + b

y = y-coordinate or any given point

mx = slope

b = y-intercept

Now we must find slope

To find the slope we need to do:

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) or rise/run

The two coordinates I choose to use is (0, 7) and (6, -8).

(-8 - 7) / (6 - 0) = -5/2

-5/2 is the slope

Finally, look for an equation that has 7 as the y-intercept and -5/2 as the slope.

Recidivism occurs when a person continues to commit criminal behavior even after having been punished. A prison official wants to estimate the proportion of cases of recidivism. Examining the records of 250 convicts, the official determines that there are 65 cases of recidivism. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of cases of recidivism.A. (0.331, 0.567)B. (0.188, 0.332)D. (0.289, 0.431)E. (0.069, 0.111)

Answers

Answer:

Option (C)  [0.2574 , 0.2626]

Step-by-step explanation:

Of 250 convicts, there are 65 cases of recidivism.

- Construct a 99% confidence interval for the proportion of cases of recidivism.

This calls for first finding the proportion of cases of recidivism. This will be 65/250  = 0.26

You are 100% confident that the proportion of cases of recidivism is 0.26

You will be 99% confident that the recidivism cases are between:

99% of 0.26  = 0.2574

1% of 0.26  = 0.0026

[0.26 - 0.0026] , [0.26 + 0.0026]  = [0.2574 , 0.2626]

This should be OPTION C, as that option is missing in the list of options.

00:00 The product of 64 and 13 can be rewritten as the sum of two products. Which expression is equal to 64 x 13? A. (60 x 13) + (60 x 4) B. (10 x 60) + (4 x 3) O C. (60 x 13) + (4 x 13) O D. (60 x 1) + (60 x 4)​

Answers

Answer:

∴ The expression which is equal to 64 x 13 is (60 × 13) + (4 × 13) ⇒ C

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of two numbers can be put in the form of the sum of two products by using this rule, m × n =  (a × n) + (b × n), where m = a + b

Let us solve the question using this rule

∵ We need to put 64 × 13 as the sum of two products

→ Let m = 64 and n = 13

m = 64 and n = 13

∵ 64 = 60 + 4

a = 60 and b = 4

→ By using the rule above

∵ m × n = (a × n) + (b × n)

∵ a = 60, b = 4, and n = 13

64 × 13 = (60 × 13) + (4 × 13)

The expression which is equal to 64 x 13 is (60 × 13) + (4 × 13)

OA. 9x + 2x - 62 = - 9x + 24

OB. 2x-9x + 62 = 9x + 24

OC. 9x - 2x - 62 = 9x + 24

OD. 9x - 2x + 62 = 9x + 24

Answers

Answer:

9x - 2x + 62 = 9x + 24

Number of correct answer each obtained = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of correct answers = x

POINTS for correct answers = 9

POINTS for incorrect answers = - 2

SCHOOL A:

Number of correct answers = x

Number of incorrect answers = x

Initial point = 62

Initial point + 9(number of correct answers) + - 2(number of incorrect answers)

62 + 9x - 2x

SCHOOL B :

Number of correct answers = x

Number of incorrect answers = 0

Initial point = 24

Initial point + 9(number of correct answers) + - 2(number of incorrect answers

24 + 9x

Since they end up tied :

School A = School B

62 + 9x - 2x = 24 + 9x

9x - 2x + 62 = 9x + 24

Number of correct answers gotten :

9x - 2x + 62 = 9x + 24

7x + 62 = 9x + 24

7x - 9x = 24 - 62

-2x = - 38

x = 19

Hence, Number of correct answers each obtained = 19

In a clinical trial of oxycodone, 16 subjects experience headaches among the 227 subjects treated with oxycodone. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of treated subjects who experience headaches. Provide both probabilistic and practical interpretations. (Hint: this is proportion problem).

Answers

Answer:

95% Confidence Interval = (0.037, 0.104)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Confidence Interval if a proportion is:

p ± z × √p(1 - p)/n

z = z score of a 95% confidence interval = 1.96

p = proportion = x/n

x = 16, n = 227

p = 16/227

p = 0.0704845815

≈ 0.0705

Confidence Interval

= 0.0705 ± 1.96 × √0.0705(1 - 0.0705)/227

= 0.0705 ± 1.96 × √0.0002886773

= 0.0705 ± 0.0333013921

Confidence Interval

= 0.0705 - 0.0333013921

= 0.0371986079

≈ 0.037

= 0.0705 + 0.0333013921

= 0.1038013921

≈ 0.104

Hence, 95% Confidence Interval = (0.037, 0.104)

after 3 hours B is put on another job. How long will A

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

in 1 hours time, A will complete 1/15 of the job, B will complete 1/18 and C 1/15.

After 3 hours, A completed 3/15 (aka 1/5) of the job, B 3/18 (aka 1/6) and C being the same as A.

total job done after 3 hrs is 1/5 + 1/6 + 1/5 which is 17/30 of the job

left: 13/30

in 1 hr, A and C will do 2/15 of the job (4/30)

therefore, no. of hours needed: 13/4 hours = 3.25 hours (3 hours 15mins)
