A company has a policy of retiring company cars; this policy looks at number of miles driven, purpose of trips, style of car and

other features. The distribution of the number of months in service for the fleet of cars is bell-shaped and has a mean of 63 months and a standard deviation of 8 months. Using the empirical rule (as presented in the book), what is the approximate percentage of cars that remain in service between 47 and 55 months?

Answer:

That probability is 0.1838 or 18.4% or enter 18.4

Step-by-step explanation:

mean 35 sd 5

20 is 3 sd s to the left of the mean

30 is 1 sd to the left.

The empirical rule has 68% within 1 sd or 34% on one side

It has 95% within 2 sd or 47.5% on one side

It has 99.7% within 3 sd or 49.85% on one side

Therefore between 3 sd and 1 sd on one side is 49.85-34=15.85% or enter 15.9

mean of 48 sd 7

between 48 and 55 is between -1 and 0 sd or 34% enter 34. The last one doesn't seem to post easily:z=(x-mean)/sd or z< (1217-1481)/293 or z <-264/293 or -0.901,

That probability is 0.1838 or 18.4% or enter 18.4

Answer:

The correct option is C:

C) The representative sample contained more girls than boys.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a random sample is chosen from a total students of 160 students. The sample can be of 10,15 or any small numbers of students as compared to 160. However, a sample cannot be of 160 students as it is defined as a population in this case.

A random sample is always unbiased. Which means that the sample chosen should have around the same proportion of girls to boys as it is in the population of 160.

We know that:

Total boys in 160 = 65

Total girls in 160 = 95

Proportion of girls to boys = 95/65 = 1.462

Which means that for every 1 boy, there are 1.462 of girls.

The same ratio is held in a random sample, hence the total number of girls will be greater than boys

In a random sample of 16 residents of the state of Washington, the mean waste recycled per person per day was 2.8 pounds with a
kakasveta [241]

Answer: The required confidence interval would be (2.72,2.89)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Mean = 2.8 pounds

Standard deviation = 0.24 pounds

n = sample size = 16

We need to find the 80% confidence interval for the mean waste.

z=1.341

So, the confidence interval will be

\bar{x}\pm z\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=(2.8\pm 1.341\times \dfrac{0.24}{\sqrt{16}})\\\\=(2.8\pm 1.314\times 0.06)\\\\=(2.8-0.07884,2.8+0.07884)\\\\=(2.72116,2.87884)

Hence, the required confidence interval would be (2.72,2.89)
