the time taken by a student to the university has been shown to be normally distributed with mean of 16 minutes and standard dev

Naya [18.7K]

Answer:

a) 2.84% probability that he is late for his first lecture.

b) 5.112 days

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

$\mu = 16, \sigma = 2.1$

a. Find the probability that he is late for his first lecture.

This is the probability that he takes more than 20 minutes to walk, which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 20. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{20 - 16}{2.1}$

$Z = 1.905$

$Z = 1.905$ has a pvalue of 0.9716

1 - 0.9716 = 0.0284

2.84% probability that he is late for his first lecture.

b. Find the number of days per year he is likely to be late for his first lecture.

Each day, 2.84% probability that he is late for his first lecture.

Out of 180

0.0284*180 = 5.112 days

Do oddsmakers believe that teams who play at home will have home field advantage? Specifically, do oddsmakers give higher point

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Option 3 is correct.

The data do not provide sufficient evidence to reject H0; thus, we cannot conclude that the mean point spread of home games is higher than that of away games.

Step-by-step explanation:

Before anything else, we first give the null and alternative hypothesis for this question.

Null hypothesis would be that there isn't significant evidence to conclude that the mean point spread of home games is higher than that of away games.

H0: µ1 = µ2

And the alternative hypothesis would be that there is significant evidence to conclude that the mean point spread of home games is higher than that of away games.

Ha: μ1 > μ2

The data from the output of the analysis of the hypothesis test is missing from the question. It was obtained online and is attached to this solution of the question.

The table consists of the difference, the sample mean, the standard error of the mean, degree of freedom, the test statistic and most importantly, the p-value. It is the p-value that absolutely gives us the concluding statement of the hypothesis testing.

When the significance level for a test isn't provided, the convention is usually to use 5% significance.

Interpretation of p-value

When the (p-value > significance level), we fail to reject the null hypothesis and when the (p-value < significance level), we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis.

So, for this question, significance level = 0.05

p-value = 0.4351

0.4351 > 0.05

Hence,

p-value > significance level

This means that we fail to reject the null hypothesis & say that 'The data do not provide sufficient evidence to reject H0; thus, we cannot conclude that the mean point spread of home games is higher than that of away games'.

Hope this Helps!!!

What additional information could you use to show that ΔSTU ≅ ΔVTU using SAS? Check all that apply.

Ugo [173]

I believe the correct answers are:

<span>UV = 14 ft and m∠TUV = 45°</span>
<span>ST = 20 ft, UV = 14 ft, and m∠UST = 98°

Or, in other words, Options A and D.

The infield of a baseball field is a square

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

106.1 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

You know the diagonal of a square is √2 times the length of one side, so the distance from 3rd to 1st is 90√2 feet ≈ 127.2792 ft.

The speed is the ratio of distance to time:

speed = distance/time = 127.2972 ft/(1.2 s) ≈ 106.1 ft/s.

_____

In case you have never figured or seen the computation of the diagonal of a square (the hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle), consider the square with side lengths 1. The diagonal will cut the square into halves that are isosceles right triangles with leg lengths 1. Then the Pythagorean theorem can be used to find the diagonal length d:

d² = 1² + 1²

d² = 2

d = √2

Since this is the diagonal for a side length of 1, any other side length will serve as a scale factor for this value. A square with a side length of 90 ft will have a diagonal measuring 90√2 ft.
