Answer:

a) P(X<50)=0.9827

b) P(X>47)=0.4321

c) P(-1.5<z<1.5)=0.8664

Step-by-step explanation:

We will calculate the probability based on a random sample of one moped out of the population, normally distributed with mean 46.7 and standard deviation 1.75.

a) This means we have to calculate P(x<50).

We will calculate the z-score and then calculate the probability accordign to the standard normal distribution:

$z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{50-46.7}{1.75}=\dfrac{3.7}{1.75}=2.114\\\\\\P(X$

b) We have to calculatee P(x>47).

We will calculate the z-score and then calculate the probability accordign to the standard normal distribution:

$z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{47-46.7}{1.75}=\dfrac{0.3}{1.75}=0.171\\\\\\P(X>47)=P(z>0.171)=0.4321$

c) If the value differs 1.5 standard deviations from the mean value, we have a z-score of z=1.5

$z=\dfrac{(\mu+1.5\sigma)-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{1.5\sigma}{\sigma}=1.5$

So the probability that maximum speed differs from the mean value by at most 1.5 standard deviations is P(-1.5<z<1.5):

$P(-1.5$

OPTIONS:

No, because she could receive as low as 14% of the vote.

No, because she could receive as low as 49% of the vote.

Yes, because she could receive as much as 77% of the vote.

Yes, because the poll stated that she will win with 63% of the vote.

Answer:

No, because she could receive as low as 49% of the vote.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Poll suggestion = 63%

Margin of Error (E) = 14%

This means that; the range or interval in which the vote obtained could fall would be ;

Poll suggestion ± margin of Error

63% ± 14%

Lower bound attainable = (63% - 14%) = 49%

Upper bound attainable = (63% + 14%) = 77%

Since, winning actually requires obtaining atleast half of the votes (that is 50%) ; and suggested poll suggested votes could fall as low as 49% ; then Janice can't be so confident of victory.

A length is measured as 21cm correct to 2 significant figures. what is the upper bound for the length?

Leno4ka [110]

the upper bound for the length is $21.5 cm$ .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Lower and Upper Bounds

The lower bound is the smallest value that will round up to the approximate value.
The upper bound is the smallest value that will round up to the next approximate value.

Ex:- a mass of 70 kg, rounded to the nearest 10 kg, The upper bound is 75 kg, because 75 kg is the smallest mass that would round up to 80kg.

Here , A length is measured as 21cm correct to 2 significant figures. We need to find what is the upper bound for the length . let's find out:

As discussed above , upper bound for any number will be the smallest value in decimals which will round up to next integer value . So , for 21 :

⇒ $21.5 cm$

21.5 cm on rounding off will give 22 cm . So , the upper bound for the length is $21.5 cm$ .

Dean took out a 10-year loan for $40,000 at an APR of 4% compounded monthly. What will his balance be after he has made exactly

damaskus [11]

Answer:

The balance be after he has made exactly half of his monthly payments is $56881.4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Dean took out a 10-year loan for $40,000 at an APR of 4% compounded monthly.

To find : What will his balance be after he has made exactly half of his monthly payments?

Solution :

Formula of monthly payment ,

$M=\frac{\text{Amount}}{\text{Discount factor}}$

Discount factor $D=\frac{1-(1+i)^{-n}}{i}$

Where, Amount = $40,000

Rate r= 4% compounded monthly

$i=\frac{4}{100}=0.04$

Time = 10 years

$n=10\times12=120$

Now, put all the values we get,

$D=\frac{1-(1+i)^{-n}}{i}$

$D=\frac{1-(1+0.04)^{-120}}{0.04}$

$D=\frac{1-(1.04)^{-120}}{0.04}$

$D=\frac{1-0.00903}{0.04}$

$D=\frac{0.9909}{0.04}$

$D=24.7725$

$M=\frac{\text{Amount}}{\text{Discount factor}}$

$M=\frac{40000}{24.7725}$

$M=1614.69$

Half of the monthly payment is $807.345

Payment for 10 years is $807.345\times 120=96881.4$

The balance is $96881.4-$40000=$56881.4

Therefore, The balance be after he has made exactly half of his monthly payments is $56881.4.

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

$Z = 2.1\ is\ higher\ than\ 1.96, we\ reject\ H_o$

Step-by-step explanation:

The explanation of given question is described below:

Here, the test of hypothesis states that

$H_o : Mean = 28.6$

$H_a : Mean\ which\ is\ not\ equals\ 28.6$

The test statistic is

$Z = \frac{(\bar X - Mean)}{\frac{Population\ standard\ deviation}{vn} }$

$Z = \frac{(30.06 - 28.6)}{\frac{4.18}{6} }$

= 2.1

According to the given data α = 0.05,

So, the major value is

$IZ(0.025)I = 1.96$

(refer to the standard normal table) .

Finally

$Z = 2.1\ is\ higher\ than\ 1.96, we\ reject\ H_o$
