"Majesty Video Production Inc. wants the mean length of its advertisements to be 30 seconds. Assume the distribution of ad lengt

Westkost [7]

Answer:

a) $\bar X \sim N(\mu=30, \frac{2}{\sqrt{16}})$

b) $Se=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{16}}=0.5$

c) $P(\bar X >31.25)=0.006=0.6\%$

d) $P(\bar X >28.25)=0.9997=99.97\%$

e) $P(28.25$

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The central limit theorem states that "if we have a population with mean μ and standard deviation σ and take sufficiently large random samples from the population with replacement, then the distribution of the sample means will be approximately normally distributed. This will hold true regardless of whether the source population is normal or skewed, provided the sample size is sufficiently large".

Let X the random variabl length of advertisements produced by Majesty Video Production Inc. We know from the problem that the distribution for the random variable X is given by:

$X\sim N(\mu =30,\sigma =2)$

We take a sample of n=16 . That represent the sample size.

a. What can we say about the shape of the distribution of the sample mean time?

From the central limit theorem we know that the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is also normal and is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

$\bar X \sim N(\mu=30, \frac{2}{\sqrt{16}})$

b. What is the standard error of the mean time?

The standard error is given by this formula:

$Se=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{2}{\sqrt{16}}=0.5$

c. What percent of the sample means will be greater than 31.25 seconds?

In order to answer this question we can use the z score in order to find the probabilities, the formula given by:

$z=\frac{\bar X- \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

And we want to find this probability:

$P(\bar X >31.25)=1-P(\bar X$

d. What percent of the sample means will be greater than 28.25 seconds?

In order to answer this question we can use the z score in order to find the probabilities, the formula is given by:

$z=\frac{\bar X- \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

And we want to find this probability:

$P(\bar X >28.25)=1-P(\bar X$

e. What percent of the sample means will be greater than 28.25 but less than 31.25 seconds?"

We want this probability:

$P(28.25$

You are still debating about the two different computers. If you are paid $10.00/hour and your deductions are FICA (7.65%), fede

sattari [20]

Answer:

89 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

First solve all the deductions.

For each multiply the $10, which you are paid, and the percentage.

For FICA: $10 x 0.0765 = $0.77 per hr

For Fed tax: $10 x 0.12 = $1.2 per hr

For State tax: $10 x 0.08 = $0.8 per hr

Now subtract the remaining pay:

10 – 0.77 – 1.2 – 0.8 = $7.23

Time required = $640 / $7.23 per hr

Time required = 89 hrs

Final answer:

89 hours
