The salaries of Pet Detectives are normally distributed with a mean of $32,000 and a standard deviation of $3000. If 100 Pet Det

ectives are randomly selected, find the probability that their average salary is greater than $32,500. Select the single best answer choice

Answer:

P(\bar X> 32500)

And for this case we can use the z score formula given by:

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

And replacing the info given we got:

z =\frac{32500-32000}{\frac{3000}{\sqrt{100}}}= 1.67

And for this case we can find the probability with the normal standard table using the complement rule and we got:

P(z> 1.67) = 1-P(z

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the salaries of Pet Detectives of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(32000,3000)  

Where \mu=32000 and \sigma=3000

We select a sample size of n =100 Pet Detectives and we want to find the following probability:

P(\bar X> 32500)

And for this case we can use the z score formula given by:

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

And replacing the info given we got:

z =\frac{32500-32000}{\frac{3000}{\sqrt{100}}}= 1.67

And for this case we can find the probability with the normal standard table using the complement rule and we got:

P(z> 1.67) = 1-P(z

Find the amplitude and the equation of the midline of the periodic function.
Masja [62]

Answer:

Option B. Amplitude =3 midline is y =2.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the graph attached we have to find the amplitude and midline of the periodic function.

Amplitude of the periodic function = (Distance between two extreme points on y asxis)/2

=  (5-(-1))/2 = (5+1)/2 =6/2 =3.

Since amplitude of this function is 3 and by definition amplitude of any periodic function is the distance between the midline and the extreme point of wave on one side.

Therefore midline of the wave function is y=2 from which measurement of the amplitude is 3.

Using a linear approximation, estimate f(2.1), given that f(2) = 5 and f'(x) = √3x-1.
algol [13]

Answer:

f\left( {2.1} \right) \approx 5.22360.

Step-by-step explanation:

The linear approximation is given by the equation

                            {f\left( x \right) \approx L\left( x \right) }={ f\left( a \right) + f^\prime\left( a \right)\left( {x - a} \right).}

Linear approximation is a good way to approximate values of f(x) as long as you stay close to the point x= a, but the farther you get from x=a, the worse your approximation.

We know that,

a=2\\f(2) = 5\\f'(x) = \sqrt{3x-1}

Next, we need to plug in the known values and calculate the value of f(2.1):

{L\left( x \right) = f\left( 2 \right) + f^\prime\left( 2 \right)\left( {x - 2} \right) }=5+\sqrt{3(2)-1}(x-2) =5+\sqrt{5}(x-2)

Then

f\left( {2.1} \right) \approx 5+\sqrt{5}(2.1-2)\approx5.22360.
