1/5

Any number that can be written in fraction form is a rational number, so numbers like -1/8, 0, 1/4, etc. all work.

In 1985, the cost of clothing for a certain familiy was $620. In 1995, 10 years later, the cost of clothing for this famility wa
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

$848

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for the cost of this familiy's clothing in 1991

First step is to calculate the amount that is increase per year

Increase per year= ($1000-$620)/(1995-1985)

Increase per year= 380/10

Increase per year= $38

Now let y be :38*x + $620 and let x be 6 years (1991-1985)

Second step is to calculate the cost of the clothing in 1991

y = 38*6 + 620

y=228+620

y = $848

Therefore the cost of this familiy's clothing in 1991 will be $848

The average length of a field goal in the National Football League is 38.4 yards, and the s. d. is 5.4 yards. Suppose a typical
Tasya [4]

Answer:

a) The sample is larger than 30, so, by the Central Limit Theorem, the distribution of the sample means will be normally distributed with mean 38.4 and standard deviation 0.8538.

b) 0.25% probability that his average kicks is less than 36 yards

c) 0.11% probability that his average kicks is more than 41 yards

d-a) The sample is larger than 30, so, by the Central Limit Theorem, the distribution of the sample means will be normally distributed with mean 38.4 and standard deviation 1.08

d-b) 1.32% probability that his average kicks is less than 36 yards

d-c) 0.80% probability that his average kicks is more than 41 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 38.4, \sigma = 5.4, n = 40, s = \frac{5.4}{\sqrt{40}} = 0.8538

a. What is the distribution of the sample mean? Why?

The sample is larger than 30, so, by the Central Limit Theorem, the distribution of the sample means will be normally distributed with mean 38.4 and standard deviation 0.8538.

b. What is the probability that his average kicks is less than 36 yards?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 36. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{36 - 38.4}{0.8538}

Z = -2.81

Z = -2.81 has a pvalue of 0.0025

0.25% probability that his average kicks is less than 36 yards

c. What is the probability that his average kicks is more than 41 yards?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 41. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{41 - 38.4}{0.8538}

Z = 3.05

Z = 3.05 has a pvalue of 0.9989

1 - 0.9989 = 0.0011

0.11% probability that his average kicks is more than 41 yards

d. If the sample size is 25 in the above problem, what will be your answer to part (a) , (b)and (c)?

Now n = 25, s = \frac{5.4}{\sqrt{25}} = 1.08

So

a)

The sample is larger than 30, so, by the Central Limit Theorem, the distribution of the sample means will be normally distributed with mean 38.4 and standard deviation 1.08

b)

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{36 - 38.4}{1.08}

Z = -2.22

Z = -2.22 has a pvalue of 0.0132

1.32% probability that his average kicks is less than 36 yards

c)

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{41 - 38.4}{1.08}

Z = 2.41

Z = 2.41 has a pvalue of 0.9920

1 - 0.9920 = 0.0080

0.80% probability that his average kicks is more than 41 yards

A pedestal in a craft store is in the shape
Angelina_Jolie [31]
Given:
side lengths of right triangles = 12 cm ; 16 cm ; 20 cm
lateral area = 192 cm²

lateral area of a triangular prism = perimeter * height
192 cm² = (12 cm + 16 cm + 20 cm) * height
192 cm² = 48 cm * height
192 cm² / 48 cm = height
4 cm = height

The height of the pedestal in the shape of a triangular prism is 4 cm.
