The mode is the number that occurs the most often, and the number that occurs the most often in your number set is 87, which occurs 3 times

A circle with area 16pi has a sector with a central angle of 8/5pi radians. What is the area of the sector?

lianna [129]

Answer:

The area of the sector is $12.8\pi\ units^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a complete circle (16π units^2) subtends a central angle of 2π radians

using proportion

Find out the area of a sector , if the central angle is equal to 8π/5 radians

$\frac{16\pi}{2\pi}=\frac{x}{(8\pi/5)}\\\\x=8(8\pi/5)\\\\x= 12.8\pi\ units^2$

Part I - To help consumers assess the risks they are taking, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) publishes the amount of nico

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

(I) 99% confidence interval for the mean nicotine content of this brand of cigarette is [24.169 mg , 30.431 mg].

(II) No, since the value 28.4 does not fall in the 98% confidence interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a new cigarette has recently been marketed.

The FDA tests on this cigarette gave a mean nicotine content of 27.3 milligrams and standard deviation of 2.8 milligrams for a sample of 9 cigarettes.

Firstly, the Pivotal quantity for 99% confidence interval for the population mean is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ $t_n_-_1$

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean nicotine content = 27.3 milligrams

s = sample standard deviation = 2.8 milligrams

n = sample of cigarettes = 9

$\mu$ = true mean nicotine content

Here for constructing 99% confidence interval we have used One-sample t test statistics as we don't know about population standard deviation.

Part I : So, 99% confidence interval for the population mean, $\mu$ is ;

P(-3.355 < $t_8$ < 3.355) = 0.99 {As the critical value of t at 8 degree

of freedom are -3.355 & 3.355 with P = 0.5%}

P(-3.355 < $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < 3.355) = 0.99

P( $-3.355 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < ${\bar X-\mu}$ < $3.355 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.99

P( $\bar X-3.355 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < $\mu$ < $\bar X+3.355 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.99

99% confidence interval for $\mu$ = [ $\bar X-3.355 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ , $\bar X+3.355 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ]

= [ $27.3-3.355 \times {\frac{2.8}{\sqrt{9} } }$ , $27.3+3.355 \times {\frac{2.8}{\sqrt{9} } }$ ]

= [27.3 $\pm$ 3.131]

= [24.169 mg , 30.431 mg]

Therefore, 99% confidence interval for the mean nicotine content of this brand of cigarette is [24.169 mg , 30.431 mg].

Part II : We are given that the FDA tests on this cigarette gave a mean nicotine content of 24.9 milligrams and standard deviation of 2.6 milligrams for a sample of n = 9 cigarettes.

The FDA claims that the mean nicotine content exceeds 28.4 milligrams for this brand of cigarette, and their stated reliability is 98%.

The Pivotal quantity for 98% confidence interval for the population mean is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ $t_n_-_1$

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean nicotine content = 24.9 milligrams

s = sample standard deviation = 2.6 milligrams

n = sample of cigarettes = 9

$\mu$ = true mean nicotine content

Here for constructing 98% confidence interval we have used One-sample t test statistics as we don't know about population standard deviation.

So, 98% confidence interval for the population mean, $\mu$ is ;

P(-2.896 < $t_8$ < 2.896) = 0.98 {As the critical value of t at 8 degree

of freedom are -2.896 & 2.896 with P = 1%}

P(-2.896 < $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < 2.896) = 0.98

P( $-2.896 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < ${\bar X-\mu}$ < $2.896 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.98

P( $\bar X-2.896 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < $\mu$ < $\bar X+2.896 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.98

98% confidence interval for $\mu$ = [ $\bar X-2.896 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ , $\bar X+2.896 \times {\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ]

= [ $24.9-2.896 \times {\frac{2.6}{\sqrt{9} } }$ , $24.9+2.896 \times {\frac{2.6}{\sqrt{9} } }$ ]

= [22.4 mg , 27.4 mg]

Therefore, 98% confidence interval for the mean nicotine content of this brand of cigarette is [22.4 mg , 27.4 mg].

No, we don't agree on the claim of FDA that the mean nicotine content exceeds 28.4 milligrams for this brand of cigarette because as we can see in the above confidence interval that the value 28.4 does not fall in the 98% confidence interval.

Noralie is making a necklace using a total of 48 beads. All of the beads will be either blue or yellow. She plans to use 1/3 as

Morgarella [4.7K]

Since there are a total of 48 beads and each bead will either be blue or yellow, in order to find out how many of each colour bead she will use, do the following:

Divide 48 by 3 to get 16 yellow beads.

Now that you know how many yellow beads there are, just subtract that from 48:
48 - 16 = 32

Therefore, she will use 16 yellow beads and 32 blue beads.
