The amount of icing on a Cuppie Cake large cupcake follows a Normal distribution, with a mean of 2 ounces and a standard deviati

TiliK225 [7]

Answer: the probability the mean weight will exceed 2.1 ounces is 0.09

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the random variable representing the amount of icing on a Cuppie Cake large cupcake. Since it is normally distributed and the population mean and population standard deviation are known, we would apply the formula,

z = (x - µ)/(σ/√n)

Where

x = sample mean

µ = population mean

σ = standard deviation

n = number of samples

From the information given,

µ = 2

σ = 0.3

n = 16

x = 2.1

the probability that the mean weight will exceed 2.1 ounces is expressed as

P(x ≥ 2.1)

For x = 2.1

z = (2.1 - 2)/(0.3/√16) = 1.33

We would determine the probability for the area above z = 1.33 from the normal distribution table. It would be

p = 1 - 0.91 = 0.09

P(x ≥ 2.1) = 0.09

Determine what type of statistical test should be used to answer each of the questions below. (You will only use each response o

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

1.One proportion

2. Proportions from Dependent Samples

3. Two Independent Proportions

4. One Mean

5. Means from Dependent Samples

6. Two Independent Means

Step-by-step explanation:

What proportion of Americans believe in climate change? - One proportion

From the above information, there is only one sample and the question is about proportion. So, we must use "One proportion".

Do college students change their view on climate change as they go through college? One hundred freshman are asked if they believe in climate change. The same students are asked four years later if they also believe in climate change. - Proportions from Dependent Samples

From the information given, there are two samples and samples are dependent ( that is same students are asked four years later). Furthermore, the question is about proportion, we must use " Proportions from dependent samples ".

Is there a difference in the proportion of men and women who believe in climate change? - Two Independent Proportions

From the information given, there are two independent samples and they are asking about proportion, we must use "Two independent proportions".

What is the average amount of time that Americans spend watching or reading the news a day? - One Mean

From the information, there is only one sample and they are asking about mean. Therefore, we must use ". One mean".

Is there a difference in the amount of time that college students spend reading or watching the news as they go through college? One hundred students were asked as freshmen and as senior how many minutes a day they spent reading or watching the news? - Means from Dependent Samples

There are two samples and samples are dependent ( the same students are asked four years later). Also, they are asking about mean, we must use "Means from dependent samples ".

Is there is a difference in the amount of time that Republicans and Democrats spend watching or reading the news? - Two Independent Means

From the information given, there are two independent samples and they are asking about mean, we must use "Two independent means".

Last one anyone that can help me out?

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

Part a. t = 7.29 years.

Part b. t = 27.73 years.

Part c. p = $3894.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for continuous compounding is: A = p*e^(rt); where A is the amount after compounding, p is the principle, e is the mathematical constant (2.718281), r is the rate of interest, and t is the time in years.

Part a. It is given that p = $2000, r = 2.5%, and A = $2400. In this part, t is unknown. Therefore: 2400 = 2000*e^(2.5t). This implies 1.2 = e^(0.025t). Taking natural logarithm on both sides yields ln(1.2) = ln(e^(0.025t)). A logarithmic property is that the power of the logarithmic expression can be shifted on the left side of the whole expression, thus multiplying it with the expression. Therefore, ln(1.2) = 0.025t*ln(e). Since ln(e) = 1, and making t the subject gives t = ln(1.2)/0.025. This means that t = 7.29 years (rounded to the nearest 2 decimal places)!!!

Part b. It is given that p = $2000, r = 2.5%, and A = $4000. In this part, t is unknown. Therefore: 4000 = 2000*e^(2.5t). This implies 2 = e^(0.025t). Taking natural logarithm on both sides yields ln(2) = ln(e^(0.025t)). A logarithmic property is that the power of the logarithmic expression can be shifted on the left side of the whole expression, thus multiplying it with the expression. Therefore, ln(2) = 0.025t*ln(e). Since ln(e) = 1, and making t the subject gives t = ln(2)/0.025. This means that t = 27.73 years (rounded to the nearest 2 decimal places)!!!

Part c. It is given that A = $5000, r = 2.5%, and t = 10 years. In this part, p is unknown. Therefore 5000 = p*e^(0.025*10). This implies 5000 = p*e^(0.25). Making p the subject gives p = 5000/e^0.25. This means that p = $3894.00(rounded to the nearest 2 decimal places)!!!
