An article in Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise ["Maximal Leg-Strength Training Improves Cycling Economy in Previously

Untrained Men" (2005, Vol. 37, pp. 131–136)] studied cycling performance before and after 8 weeks of leg-strength training. Seven previously untrained males performed leg-strength training 3 days per week for 8 weeks (with four sets of five replications at 85% of one repetition maximum). Peak power during incremental cycling increased to a mean of 315 watts with a standard deviation of 16 watts. Construct a 95% confidence interval for the mean peak power after training.

Answer:

[300.202 , 329.798]

Step-by-step explanation:

The 95% confidence interval is given by the interval

\large [\bar x-t^*\frac{s}{\sqrt n}, \bar x+t^*\frac{s}{\sqrt n}]

where

\large \bar x <em>is the sample mean  </em>

<em>s is the sample standard deviation  </em>

<em>n is the sample size (n = 7)  </em>

\large t^* is the 0.05 (5%) upper critical value for the Student's t-distribution with 6 degrees of freedom (sample size -1), which is <em>an approximation to the Normal distribution for small samples (n<30).</em>

Either by using a table or the computer, we find  

\large t^*= 2.447

and our 95% confidence interval is

\large [315-2.447*\frac{16}{\sqrt{7}}, 315+2.447*\frac{16}{\sqrt{7}}]=\boxed{[300.202,329.798]}

An envelope is 4 cm longer than it is wide. the area is 96 square centimeters. find the length and width.
Dennis_Churaev [7]
<span>So, L*W=A Because it is 4 cm longer, L=W+4 Because the area is 96, LW=96 Substitute to get W(W+4)=96 Multiply it out. W^2+4W-96=0 By solving the quadratic, W+12(W-8)=0 so either W+12 or W-8 is zero. The width must be positive, so the width is 8. Therefore the length is 12. 

  Hope this helps.</span>

The J.R. Ryland Computer Company is considering a plant expansion to enable the company to begin production of a new computer pr
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

Medium-Scale Large-Scale

Expansion Profit Expansion Profit

x f(x) y f(y)

Low 50 0.2 0 0.2

Demand Medium 150 0.5 100 0.5

High 200 0.3 300 0.3

a. Compute the expected value for the profit associated with the two expansion alternatives.

Which decision is preferred for the objective of maximizing the expected profit?

Expected value for medium scale expansion profit :

Expected value (E) = Σ(X) * f(x)

Σ[(50 * 0.2) + (150 * 0.5) + (200 * 0.3)]

= 145

Expected value for Large scale expansion profit :

Expected value (E) = Σ(X) * f(x)

Σ[(0 * 0.2) + (100 * 0.5) + (300 * 0.3)]

= 140

Medium scale expansion profit is preferred as it has the highest expected value.

b. Compute the variance for the profit associated with the two expansion alternatives.

Which decision is preferred for the objective of minimizing the risk or uncertainty?

Variance (V) = Σ(X - E)² * f(x):

Variance for medium scale expansion profit :

V = [((50-145)^2 * 0.2) + ((150-145)^2 * 0.5) + ((200-145)^2 * 0.3) = 2725

Variance for Large scale expansion profit :

V = [((0-140)^2 * 0.2) + ((100-140)^2 * 0.5) + ((300-140)^2 * 0.3) = 12400

Smaller variance is required to minimize risk, Hence, choose the medium scale expansion profit.
