The water works commission needs to know the mean household usage of water by the residents of a small town in gallons per day. Assume that the population standard deviation is 2.2 gallons. The mean water usage per family was found to be 15.8 gallons per day for a sample of 669 families. Construct the 90% confidence interval for the mean usage of water. Round your answers to one decimal place.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval is   [tex]15.66< \mu < 15.94 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The population standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 2.2[/tex]

  The  sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 15.8 \ gallon[/tex]

   The sample size is  n  =  669

   

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 90 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.10[/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.645[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *  \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

=>  [tex]E = 1.645  *  \frac{ 2.2}{\sqrt{669} }[/tex]

=>  [tex]E = 0.1399[/tex]

Generally 90% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]\= x -E <  \mu <  \=x  +E[/tex]

=>    [tex]15.8  - 0.1399 <\mu<  15.8  + 0.1399 [/tex]

=>    [tex]15.66< \mu < 15.94 [/tex]

A pizza delivery company classifies its customers by gender and location of residence. The research department has gathered data from a random sample of 1664 customers. The data is summarized in the table below.
Gender and Residence of Customers
Males Females
Apartment 206 149
Dorm 295 276
With Parent(s) 55 68
Sorority/Fraternity House 132 204
Other 180 99
What is the probability that a customer is female and lives in a dorm or is female and lives in 'Other'? Express your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer: 0.2254

Step-by-step explanation:

Let E= Event of getting of female lives in a dorm.

F = Event of getting of female lives in a 'Other'.

From the table , n(E) = 276  and n(F) = 99

and n(E∩F) = 0  [E and F are Mutually exclusive]

Now, n(E∪F)=  n(E) + n(F) - n(E∩F)

= 276+99-0

= 375

also, n(S) =1664       (Sample size)

Required probability : [tex]P(E\cup F)=\dfrac{n(E\cup F)}{n(S)}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{375}{1664}\approx0.2254[/tex]

Hence, the  probability that a customer is female and lives in a dorm or is female and lives in 'Other' = 0.2254

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is poorly formatted.

The right relationship between M and t is given as:

M = −0.001t³ + 0.1t²

Required

Solve for M when t = 10

To do this, substitute 10 for t

So,we have:

M = −0.001t³ + 0.1t²

M = -0.001 * 10³ + 0.1 * 10²

M = -0.001 * 1000 + 0.1 *100

M = 1 + 10

M = 11

A robot can complete 7 tasks in 2/3 hour. Each task takes the same amount of time. How long does it take the robot to complete one task? How many tasks can the robot complete in one hour?

Answers

Answer:

a. is 2/21 hours to complete one task

b. is 10 1/2 tasks in one hour

Robot takes 2/21 hour to complete the task.

In one hour, robot complete 21/2 task.

What is ratio?

Ratio basically compares quantities, that means it show value of one quantity with respect to other quantity.

If a and b are two values, their ratio will be a:b,

Given that,

Time taken to complete 7 tasks = 2/3 hours.

To find the time taken to complete one task and tasks that completed in one hour,

Use ratio method,

7 tasks take = 2/3 hours

1 task takes = 2/(3 x 7) = 2 / 21 hours.

In 2/3 hours = 7 tasks completed,

1 hour = 21/2 tasks.

In one hour, 21/2 tasks can be completed.

2 – 100 - 25

22 - 10x + 25

Answers

Answer:

D.) x²-10x+25 sq. units

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not properly written. The question should have been:

If each side of a square is (x-5) units, which expression can be used to represent the area of the square.

Area of a square = L² where:

L is the length of the square

Given

L = x-5

Required

Area of the square

Substitute the given function into the formula to get the required as shown:

Area of the square = (x-5)²

Expand

A(x) = (x-5)(x-5)

A(x) = x(x)-5x-5x-5(-5)

A(x) = x²-10x-25

Hence the area of the square is (x²-10x+25)sq. units. Option D is correct.

Choose 1 answer:


(Choice A)

A

Yes


(Choice B)

B

No

Answers

Answer:

1). A. Add/subtract a quantity to/from only one side  

2) B. No

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation A

5x-2+x = x-4

Given equation B

5x+x = x-4

We can see that the difference between equation A and B is the 2 that subtracted from the left hand sides of the equation A. All other functions and constants remains the same.

For us to be able to get equation B from A, we need to simply add 2 to the left hand side of equation A to cancel out the -2 that is there as shown:

From equation A:

[tex]5x-2+x = x-4[/tex]

Add 2 to the left hand side of the equation

[tex]5x-2+x+2 = x-4[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]5x-2+2+x = x-4\\5x+0+x = x-4\\5x+x = x-4[/tex]

We can see that the resulting function gives the equation B

Hence the option B is correct i.e Add/subtract a quantity to/from only one side  

Let us find the solution to equation A and B

For equation A:

[tex]5x-2+x = x-4\\5x+x-2 = x-4\\6x-2 = x-4\\6x-x = -4+2\\5x = -2\\x = -2/5[/tex]

For equation B:

[tex]5x+x = x-4\\5x+x-x = 4\\6x-x = 4\\5x = 4\\x= 4/5[/tex]

Since we got different solution for x in both equation, hence both equation are not equivalent.

Answer:

Add/subtract the same quantity to/from both sides .... and yes

Answers

Answer:

[tex]b=\dfrac{2A}{h}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a triangle is given by :

[tex]A=\dfrac{1}{2}bh[/tex] ...(1)

Where b is the length of the base and h is the height.

We need to find the value of b from the above formula.

Cross multiplying equation (1) we get :

[tex]2A=bh[/tex]

Now dividing both sides by h. So,

[tex]\dfrac{2A}{h}=\dfrac{bh}{h}\\\\b=\dfrac{2A}{h}[/tex]

So, the correct option is (D) i.e. [tex]\dfrac{2A}{h}[/tex].

The equations of sides of a triangle are 2x-3y+5=0, 2x+y=7 and 2x+5y=3. Find the coordinates of the vertices.

Answers

Answer:

Vertices A B y C

A ( 2 , 3 )    B ( -1 , 1 )  C ( 3, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to solve a two-equation system, by pair of equations as follows

equation (1)   2x - 3y + 5 = 0

equation (2)  2x + y -7    = 0

Solving this system we find let´s say vertex A

0x - 4y +12 = 0      y = 3

Then x ?

2x - 3y + 5 = 0

2x - 9 + 5 = 0     ⇒ 2x = 4     x = 2

Then vertex A ( 2 , 3 )

From equation (1) and (3)

2x - 3y + 5 = 0

2x + 5y - 3 = 0

Agan subtracting (1) - (2)

0x -8y + 8 = 0

y = 1    and      

2x + 5y = 3

2x + 5 = 3

2x = -2

x = -1

Vertex B ( -1 , 1 )

Finally from equation (2) and (3) we get the third vertex C

2x + y - 7 = 0

2x + 5y - 3 = 0

0x -4y -4 = 0

y = 1

2x + y = 7

2x + 1 = 7

2x = 6

x = 3

C ( 3 , 1 )

Answers

Answer:

the order in which the ratio is drawn should be the same as listed.

Explanation:

What this means is that since a ratio compares the sizes of two numbers (eg 4:2 or 4 ratios 2 or [tex]\frac{4}{2}[/tex]), it would be wrong to change the order of a ratio when drawn in a diagram.

For example,  changing the order to (2:4 or 2 ratios 4), which then  because [tex]\frac{2}{4}[/tex] not [tex]\frac{4}{2}[/tex]. Hence, it is important to remember that diagram of the ratio of two or more quantities should be the same as listed.

If n is an odd number, then its remainder is 1 when I divide it by 2.

17 is an odd number. What conclusion can be made?

Answers

Answer: Its remainder is 1 when you divide 17 by 2.

In other words, 17/2 = 8 remainder 1.

The 8 is the quotient.

The reason why we know we get a remainder 1 is because the condition of "if n is an odd number" and here n = 17 is odd. So the first condition is met allowing us to use the full "if, then" statement given to us.
