It has been observed that a large percentage of professional hockey players have birthdays in the first part of the year. It has been suggested that this is due to the cut-off dates for participation in the youth leagues - those born in the earlier months are older than their peers and this advantage is amplified over the years via more opportunities to train and be coached. Of the 511 professional hockey players in a season, 159 of them were born in January, February, or March.
Requried:
a. Assume that 25% of birthdays from the general population occur in January, February, or March (these actually contain 24.7% of the days of the year). In random samples of 508 people, what is the mean number of those with a birthday in January, February, or March?
b. What is the standard deviation?
c. Now, 158 of the 508 professional hockey players were born in the first three months of the year. With respect to the mean and standard deviation found in parts (a) and (b) what is the z-score for 158?
d. If the men in the professional hockey league were randomly selected from the general population, would 158players out of 508 be an unusual number of men born in the first 3 months of the year?
e. Which of the following is an acceptable sentence to explain this situation?
1. If the men in the professional hockey league were selected randomly from the general population, this would be an unusual collection of birth dates.
2. There is good reason to believe that a significantly larger than expected proportion of professional hockey league players are born in the first three months of the year.
3.This could be a result of the random variation of birth dates within a sample. However, it would be pretty unlikely to happen by chance.
4. All of these are valid statements.
Answer:
a
[tex]\mu = 127[/tex]
b
[tex]\sigma = 9.76[/tex]
c
[tex]z-score = 3.18 [/tex]
d
Yes, 158 players out of 508 is an unusual number of men born in the first 3 months of the year because the z score of 158 is greater than 3( Note :the probability of z-score = 3 is 97%)
e
The correct option is option 3
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The population proportion is p = 0.25
The sample size is n = 508
Generally the mean is mathematically represented as
[tex]\mu = np[/tex]
=> [tex]\mu = 508 * 0.25[/tex]
=> [tex]\mu = 127[/tex]
Generally the standard deviation is mathematically represented as
[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{ np (1-p)}[/tex]
=> [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{ 508 * 0.25 (1-0.25)}[/tex]
=> [tex]\sigma = 9.76[/tex]
Generally the z-score of 158 is mathematically represented as
[tex]z-score = \frac{158 - 127}{9.76}[/tex]
=> [tex]z-score = \frac{158 - 127}{9.76}[/tex]
=> [tex]z-score = 3.18 [/tex]
Yes, 158 players out of 508 is an unusual number of men born in the first 3 months of the year because the z score of 158 is greater than 3( Note :the probability of z-score = 3 is 97%)
What this means is that the almost the whole professional hockey league player are born in the first month which is unusual

4. I am a multiple of 3, 4, 5, and 6. I am a factor of 120. Divided by 7, l leave a remainder of 4. Who am I?
Answer:
60
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking the LCM of 3, 4, 5 and 6 leaves us with;
LCM = 1 * 2 * 3 * 2 * 5
= 60
Since Dividing 60 by 7 leaves quotient 8 and remainder 4,
We know that we've found the number we're looking for.

There are eight wires which need to be attached to a circuit board. A robotic device will attach the wires. The wires can be attached in any order, and the production manager wishes to determine which order would be fastest for the robot to use. Use the multiplication rule of counting to determine the number of possible sequences of assembly that must be tested.
Answer: 40320 sequence to test.
Step-by-step explanation:
we have given the following data:
No of wires which need to be attached to a circuit board = 8
What We need to find is the number of possible sequences of assembly that must be tested.
Using our multiplication rule of counting we arrive at,
Number of possible sequences of assembly is given by
8! = 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1
= 40320
i.e. there are 8 choices for the first wire, 7 choices for the second wire, 6 choices for the third wire, 5 choice for the fourth wire same till the 8th wire.
Hence, there are 40320 possible sequences of assembly.

x² – 9/3x²+8x-3 divided by x-3/x+2
Answer:
-(x(2x squared-8x+3))/(x-1)(x+3)
Step-by-step explanation:
This can't be simplified very far, but the answer is above. Hope it helps!
The simplified equation of x² – 9/3x²+8x-3 divided by x-3/x+2 is (x-3)(4x+1)/(3x-1)(x+2).
What is Simplification?Simplification is the process of replacing a mathematical expression by an equivalent one, that is simpler. Therefore,
WE need to simplify the given;
[tex]\dfrac{x^{2}-9 }{3x^{2} +8x-3}+\dfrac{x-3}{x+2}[/tex]
3x² + 8x - 3 = (3x - 1)(x + 3)
x² - 9 = (x - 3)(x + 3)
Then;
[tex]\dfrac{(x-3)(x+3)}{(3x-1)(x+3)} +\dfrac{x-3}{x+2} =\dfrac{(x+2)(x-3)(x+3)+(x-3)(x+3)(3x-1)}{(3x-1)(x+3)(x+2)}[/tex]
Therefore,
[tex]\frac{(x+2)(x-3)(x+3)+(x-3)(x+3)(3x-1)}{(3x-1)(x+3)(x+2)}=\frac{((x+3)(x-3)((x+2)+(3x-1)))}{(3x-1)(x+3)(x+2)}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{((x+3)(x-3)((x+2)+(3x-1)))}{(3x-1)(x+3)(x+2)}=\dfrac{(x-3)((x+2)+(3x-1))}{(3x-1)(x+2))}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{(x-3)((x+2)+(3x-1))}{(3x-1)(x+2))} = \dfrac{(x-3)(x+2+3x-1)}{(3x-1)(x+2)}[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{(x-3)(x+2+3x-1)}{(3x-1)(x+2)}=\dfrac{(x-3)(4x+1)}{(3x-1)(x+2)}[/tex]
Hence, The simplified equation of x² – 9/3x²+8x-3 divided by x-3/x+2 is (x-3)(4x+1)/(3x-1)(x+2).

An amusement park studied methods for decreasing the waiting time (minutes) for rides by loading and unloading riders more efficiently. Two alternative loading/unloading methods have been proposed. To account for potential differences due to the type of ride and the possible interaction between the method of loading and unloading and the type of ride, a factorial experiment was designed. Use the following data to test for any significant effect due to the loading and unloading method, the type of ride, and interaction. Use α=α= .05.

How do you do this question?
Answer:
(-11 + √165) / 22
Step-by-step explanation:
∑₂°° (1 + c)⁻ⁿ
= ∑₂°° (1 / (1 + c))ⁿ
= ∑₁°° (1 / (1 + c))ⁿ⁺¹
This is a geometric series with a₁ = 1/(1+c)² and r = 1/(1+c).
The sum of an infinite geometric series is:
S = a₁ / (1 − r)
Therefore:
11 = 1/(1+c)² / (1 − 1/(1+c))
11 = 1 / ((1+c)² − (1+c))
11 ((1+c)² − (1+c)) = 1
11 (1 + 2c + c² − 1 − c) = 1
11 (c + c²) = 1
11c² + 11c − 1 = 0
c = [ -11 ± √(11² − 4(11)(-1)) ] / 22
c = (-11 ± √165) / 22
c cannot be between -2 and 0, so c = (-11 + √165) / 22.
