The height and radius that will give us the smallest amount of paper, should have should have the perfect dimension, in that the diameter should be equal to the height. thus let the diameter be x, the height will be x and the radius will be x/2
thus the volume of the cone will be:
V=1/3πr^2h
=1/3*π*(x/2)^2*x
=0.262x^3
hence the value of x will be:
33=0.262x^3
x^3=125.95
x=(125.95)^(1/3)
x=5.0126=5.01 cm
thus the diameter=height=5.01cm

One of your peers claims that boys do better in math classes than girls. Together you run two independent simple random samples
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

To test if boys are better in math classes than girls two random samples were taken:

Sample 1

X₁: score of a boy in calculus

n₁= 15

X[bar]₁= 82.3%

S₁= 5.6%

Sample 2

X₂: Score in the calculus of a girl

n₂= 12

X[bar]₂= 81.2%

S₂= 6.7%

To estimate per CI the difference between the mean percentage that boys obtained in calculus and the mean percentage that girls obtained in calculus, you need that both variables of interest come from normal populations.

To be able to use a pooled variance t-test you have to also assume that the population variances, although unknown, are equal.

Then you can calculate the interval as:

[(X[bar]_1-X[bar_2) ± t_{n_1+n_2-2;1-\alpha /2} * Sa*\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2} }]

Sa= \sqrt{\frac{(n_1-1)S^2_1+(n_2-1)S^2_2}{n_1+n_2-2} } = \sqrt{\frac{14*(5.6^2)+11*(6.7^2)}{15+12-2} }= 6.108= 6.11

t_{n_1+n_2-2;1-\alpha /2}= t_{15+12-2;1-0.05}= t_{25;0.95}= 1.708

[(82.3-81.2) ± 1.708* (6.11*\sqrt{\frac{1}{15}+\frac{1}{12}  }]

[-2.94; 5.14]

Using a 90% confidence level you'd expect the interval [-2.94; 5.14] to contain the true value of the difference between the average percentage obtained in calculus by boys and the average percentage obtained in calculus by girls.

I hope this helps!

A candy maker produces mints that have a label weight of 20.4 grams. Assume that the distribution of the weights of these mints
Sliva [168]

Answer:

a)0.099834

b) 0

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for this question we would be using , z.score formula.

The formula for calculating a z-score is is z = (x-μ)/σ, where x is the raw score, μ is the population mean, and σ is the population standard deviation.

A candy maker produces mints that have a label weight of 20.4 grams. Assume that the distribution of the weights of these mints is normal with mean 21.37 and variance 0.16.

a) Find the probability that the weight of a single mint selected at random from the production line is less than 20.857 grams.

Standard Deviation = √variance

= √0.16 = 0.4

Standard deviation = 0.4

Mean = 21.37

x = 20.857

z = (x-μ)/σ

z = 20.857 - 21.37/0.4

z = -1.2825

P-value from Z-Table:

P(x<20.857) = 0.099834

b) During a shift, a sample of 100 mints is selected at random and weighed. Approximate the probability that in the selected sample there are at most 5 mints that weigh less than 20.857 grams.

z score formula used = (x-μ)/σ/√n

x = 20.857

Standard deviation = 0.4

Mean = 21.37

n = 100

z = 20.857 - 21.37/0.4/√100

= 20.857 - 21.37/ 0.4/10

= 20.857 - 21.37/ 0.04

= -12.825

P-value from Z-Table:

P(x<20.857) = 0

c) Find the approximate probability that the sample mean of the 100 mints selected is greater than 21.31 and less than 21.39.

The gas mileage for a certain vehicle can be approximated by m=−0.05x2+3.5x−49, where x is the speed of the vehicle in mph. Dete
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

<h2>14mph</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the gas mileage for a certain vehicle modeled by the equation m=−0.05x²+3.5x−49 where x is the speed of the vehicle in mph. In order to determine the speed(s) at which the car gets 9 mpg, we will substitute the value of m = 9 into the modeled equation and calculate x as shown;

m = −0.05x²+3.5x−49

when m= 9

9 = −0.05x²+3.5x−49

−0.05x²+3.5x−49 = 9

0.05x²-3.5x+49 = -9

Multiplying through by 100

5x²+350x−4900 = 900

Dividing through by 5;

x²+70x−980 = 180

x²+70x−980 - 180 = 0

x²+70x−1160 = 0

Using the general formula to get x;

a = 1, b = 70, c = -1160

x = -70±√70²-4(1)(-1160)/2

x = -70±√4900+4640)/2

x = -70±(√4900+4640)/2

x = -70±√9540/2

x =  -70±97.7/2

x = -70+97.7/2

x = 27.7/2

x = 13.85mph

x ≈ 14 mph

Hence, the speed(s) at which the car gets 9 mpg to the nearest mph is 14mph
