Suppose a continuous probability distribution has an average of μ=35 and a standard deviation of σ=16. Draw 100 times at random
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

To use a Normal distribution to approximate the chance the sum total will be between 3000 and 4000 (inclusive), we use the area from a lower bound of 3000 to an upper bound of 4000 under a Normal curve with its center (average) at 3500 and a spread (standard deviation) of 160 . The estimated probability is 99.82%.

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 are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

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 normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For sums, we have that the mean is \mu*n and the standard deviation is s = \sigma \sqrt{n}

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 100*35 = 3500, \sigma = \sqrt{100}*16 = 160

This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 4000 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 3000.

X = 4000

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{4000 - 3500}{160}

Z = 3.13

Z = 3.13 has a pvalue of 0.9991

X = 3000

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{3000 - 3500}{160}

Z = -3.13

Z = -3.13 has a pvalue of 0.0009

0.9991 - 0.0009 = 0.9982

So the correct answer is:

To use a Normal distribution to approximate the chance the sum total will be between 3000 and 4000 (inclusive), we use the area from a lower bound of 3000 to an upper bound of 4000 under a Normal curve with its center (average) at 3500 and a spread (standard deviation) of 160 . The estimated probability is 99.82%.

Which relation is a function?
Ksivusya [100]
B. To see if it’s a function, it has to pass the vertical line test. That means draw a vertical line (going up and down) through any point on the graph and it can only go through one point. If it goes through more than 1, it’s not a function. Like in graph A, if you draw a vertical line at x=-2, it will go through two points, same at x=2. For graph b, no matter where you move a vertical line, it only passes through one point at a time, so it passes the vertical line test.

Can anybody help me?
lakkis [162]

You know that 6x+3 equals 45 because the two sides are equal. So you first put the equation 6x+3=45. Then you use the subtraction property of equality and subtract 3 from both sides. This gives you 6x=42. Then you divide 6 from both sides to get you final answer, x=7
