Answer:

0.514

Step-by-step Explantion:

Denominator = 500 = 2^2 * 5^3

257/500 = 257/2^2*5^3 = 2*257/2*2^2*5^3 = 514/2^3*5^3 = 514/(2*5)^3 = 514/10^3 = 0.514

According to a Los Angeles Times study of more than 1 million medical dispatches from 2007 to 2012, the 911 response time for me

Reil [10]

Answer:

a) $\bar X=10.65$

$Median =\frac{10.7+10.7}{2}=10.7$

$Mode= 10.7$

b) $Range = 11.8-8.3=3.5$

$s= 0.948$

c) $IQR = Q_3 -Q_1 = 11.05-10.55=0.5$

And we can find the usual limits with:

$Lower = Q_1 -1.5 IQR = 10.55 -1.5*0.5=9.8$

$Upperer = Q_3 +1.5 IQR = 10.55 +1.5*0.5=11.3$

And since 8.3 <9.8 we can consider this value too low or as an outlier for this case.

d) The mean for this case was 10.65 and the usual values are between 9.8 and 11.3, so as we can see all are above the specified value of 6 minutes, and we can conclude that the times are not satisfying the quality standards for this case.

And they should be considered apply some strategies to reduce the response time, adding more stations around points selected at the city could be useful in order to reduce the response time.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following data:

11.8 10.3 10.7 10.6 11.5 8.3 10.5 10.9 10.7 11.2

Part a

We can calculate the sample mean with the following formula:

$\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}$

And if we replace we got: $\bar X=10.65$

For the median we need to sort the values on increasing order and we have:

8.3 10.3 10.5 10.6 10.7 10.7 10.9 11.2 11.5 11.8

Since n =10 we can calculate the median as the average between the 5th and 6th position of the dataset ordered and we got:

$Median =\frac{10.7+10.7}{2}=10.7$

The mode would be the most repeated value on this case:

$Mode= 10.7$

Part b

The range is defined as $Range =Max-Min$ and if we replace we got:

$Range = 11.8-8.3=3.5$

We can calculate the standard deviation with the following formula:

$s= sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}$

And if we replace we got:

$s= 0.948$

Part c

For this case we can use the IQR method in order to determine if 8.3 is an outlier or not.

We can calculate the first quartile with these values: 8.3 10.3 10.5 10.6 10.7 10.7 and $Q_1= \frac{10.6+10.7}{2}=10.55$

And for the Q3 we can use: 10.7 10.7 10.9 11.2 11.5 11.8 and we got $Q_3 = \frac{10.9+11.2}{2}=11.05$

Then we can find the IQR like this:

$IQR = Q_3 -Q_1 = 11.05-10.55=0.5$

And we can find the usual limits with:

$Lower = Q_1 -1.5 IQR = 10.55 -1.5*0.5=9.8$

$Upperer = Q_3 +1.5 IQR = 10.55 +1.5*0.5=11.3$

And since 8.3 <9.8 we can consider this value too low or as an outlier for this case.

Part d

The mean for this case was 10.65 and the usual values are between 9.8 and 11.3, so as we can see all are above the specified value of 6 minutes, and we can conclude that the times are not satisfying the quality standards for this case.

And they should be considered apply some strategies to reduce the response time, adding more stations around points selected at the city could be useful in order to reduce the response time.

Helen’s house is located on a rectangular lot that is 1 1/8 miles by 9/10 mile.Estimate the distance around the lot

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The distance around the lot is 4.05 miles .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = 2 (Length + Breadth)$

As given

$Helen’s\ house\ is\ located\ on\ a\ rectangular\ lot\ that\ is\ 1 \frac{1}{8}\ miles\ by\ \frac{9}{10}\ mile.$

i.e

$Helen’s\ house\ is\ located\ on\ a\ rectangular\ lot\ that\ is\ \frac{9}{8}\ miles\ by\ \frac{9}{10}\ mile.$

Here

$Length = \frac{9}{8}\ miles$

$Breadth = \frac{9}{10}\ miles$

Put in the formula

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = 2(\frac{9}{8}+\frac{9}{10})$

L.C.M of (8,10) = 40

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = \frac{2\times (9\times 5+9\times 4)}{40}$

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = \frac{2\times (45+36)}{40}$

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = \frac{2\times 81}{40}$

$Perimeter\ of\ rectangle = \frac{81}{20}$

Perimeter of rectangle = 4.05 miles

Therefore the distance around the lot is 4.05 miles .

Kitty [74]

Answer:

a

The 90% confidence interval is $52561.13 < \mu < 57540.8$

b

Confidence interval for the population men between <u>$52561.13</u> up to <u>$57540.8</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is $n = 25$

The sample mean is $\= x = \$ 55,051$

The standard deviation is $\sigma = \$ 7,568$

Given that the confidence level is 90% then the level of confidence is mathematically represented as

$\alpha = 100 -90$

$\alpha = 10\%$

$\alpha = 0.10$

Next we obtain the critical value of $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ from the normal distribution table the values is

$Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.645$

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

$E = Z_{\frac{ \alpha }{2} } * \frac{ \sigma }{\sqrt{n} }$

substituting values

$E = 1.645 * \frac{ 7568}{ \sqrt{ 25} }$

$E = 2489.9$

The 90% confidence interval is mathematically evaluated as

$\= x -E < \mu < \= x +E$

substituting values

$55051 - 2489.8 < \mu < 55051 + 2489.8$

$52561.13 < \mu < 57540.8$

Which phrase describes the perpendicular distance between two bases of a cylinder

Flura [38]

Answer:

The height of the cylinder

Step-by-step explanation:

The perpendicular distance between two bases of a cylinder is not going to be the radius or diameter of the bases (because it is BETWEEN the bases, not ON them) and it is not the area of the bases because the area of a shape cannot be a distance.

So, the only option left is the height of the cylinder, which is the correct answer.
