Answer:
0.0091 = 0.91% probability that the sample mean would be less than 48,101 miles in a sample of 281 tires if the manager is correct
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 can be solved using the z-score formula.
In a set with mean and standard deviation
, the zscore of a measure X is given by:
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 random variable X, with mean and standard deviation
, the sample means with size n of at least 30 can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean
and standard deviation
In this problem, we have that:
What is the probability that the sample mean would be less than 48,101 miles in a sample of 281 tires if the manager is correct?
This is the pvalue of Z when X = 48101. So
By the Central Limit Theorem
has a pvalue of 0.0091
0.0091 = 0.91% probability that the sample mean would be less than 48,101 miles in a sample of 281 tires if the manager is correct
Answer:
( I am assuming that these are all fractions)
1. 14
2. 8
3.
4. 5
Step-by-step explanation:
1. First you have to convert 15 into a fraction but it must have the same denominator causing the equation to look like 105/7 - 3/7= 102/7. But you cannot just leave the fraction like that it must be simplified 14
2. Three-fifths of an hour is 36 minutes. You would next multiply 5 by 60 which would the hours into minutes 5 x 60 = 300. You would then divide 300 by 36 which would give you 8.3333333333, which I just simplified it to 8
3. In order for you to multiply a fraction you would first multiply the top then the bottom. 12 x 6= 72, 15 x 18= 270. The fraction would look like 72/270 which is simplified to .
4. First I changed the fractions into improper fractions causing the fraction to look like 36/8 x 14/11 (I got these answers by 8 by 4 then adding 4, then for the next fraction I multiplied 11 by 1 then added 3.) 36 x 14= 1224, 11 x 8= 88 the fraction would look like 1,224/88 you would simplify to 5
