Answer:

Probability that the mean hours spent per week on household chores by a sample of 49 adults will be more than 26.75 is 0.89435.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the number of hours spent per week on household chores by all adults has a mean of 28 hours and a standard deviation of 7 hours.

Also, sample of 49 adults is given.

<em>Let X = number of hours spent per week on household chores</em>

So, assuming data follows normal distribution; X ~ N(\mu=28,\sigma^{2}=7^{2})

The z score probability distribution for sample mean is given by;

               Z = \frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } ~ N(0,1)

where, \mu = mean hours = 28

            \sigma = standard deviation = 7 hours

            n = sample of adults = 49

<em>Let </em>\bar X<em> = sample mean hours spent per week on household chores</em>

So, probability that the mean hours spent per week on household chores by a sample of 49 adults will be more than 26.75 is given by =P(\bar X > 26.75 hours)

    P(\bar X > 26.75 hours) = P( \frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } > \frac{26.75-28}{\frac{7}{\sqrt{49} } } ) = P(Z > -1.25) = P(Z < 1.25)

                                                                     = 0.89435  {using z table}

Therefore, probability that the mean hours spent per week on household chores is more than 26.75 is 0.89435.

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

The critical value for the 95% confidence interval is z = 1.96.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our \alpha level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

\alpha = \frac{1-0.95}{2} = 0.025

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of 1-\alpha

So it is z with a pvalue of 1-0.025 = 0.975, so z = 1.96.

The critical value for the 95% confidence interval is z = 1.96.

Nayeli wants to earn some extra money so she sells lemonade for $2 per cup and orange juice for $3 per cup. She sells a total of
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

let x represent lemonade and y represent orange juice

the total earning is $240. 2x+3y=240 allows you to find the number of each cup you need to sell to get $240.

the total number of cups sold is 100. x+y=100 gives you the other equation necessary to find the number of cups of each sold if you told a total of 100

The average score of all golfers for a particular course has a mean of 64 and a standard deviation of 3. Suppose 36 golfers play
kondaur [170]

Answer:

the probability that the exceeded 65 = 0.3707

The average score of the 36 golfers exceeded 65

                        = 36 X 0.3707 = 13.3452

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1</u>:-

The average score of all golfers for a particular course has a mean of 64 and a standard deviation of 3.

mean (μ) = 64

standard deviation (σ) =3

by using normal distribution

given (μ) = 64 and  (σ) =3

i) when x =65

z = \frac{x-mean}{S.D} = \frac{65-64}{3} = 0.33 >0

P( X≥ 65) = P(z≥0.33)

              = 0.5 - A(z₁)

              = 0.5 - 0.1293 (see normal table)

             = 0.3707

The average score of the 36 golfers exceeded 65

                        = 36 X 0.3707 = 13.3452
