Find the mean of the data summarized in the given frequency distribution. Compare the computed mean to the actual mean of 47.3 m

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

$\bar X = \frac{2276}{48}=47.417$

If we compare this value with the 47.3 proposed we have the following error

$Error = \frac{|Actual-real|}{real}*100 = \frac{|47.417-47.3|}{47.3}*100 =0.247\%$

The computed mean is close to the actual mean because the difference between the means is less than 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the following dataset:

Speed 42-45 46-49 50-53 54-57 58-61

Freq. 21 15 6 4 2

And we are interested in find the mean, since we have grouped data the formula for the mean is given by:

$\bar X = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i f_i}{\sum_{i=1}^n f_i}$

And is useful construct a table like this one:

Speed Freq Midpoint Freq*Midpoint

42-45 21 43.5 913.5

46-49 15 47.5 712.5

50-53 6 51.5 309

54-57 4 55.5 222

58-61 2 59.5 119

Total 48 2276

And the mean is given by:

$\bar X = \frac{2276}{48}=47.417$

If we compare this value with the 47.3 proposed we have the following error

$Error = \frac{|Actual-real|}{real}*100 = \frac{|47.417-47.3|}{47.3}*100 =0.247\%$

The computed mean is close to the actual mean because the difference between the means is less than 5%.

At 7:00 A.M., Alicia pours a cup of tea whose temperature is 200°F. The tea starts to cool to room temperature (72°F). At 7:02 A

alexgriva [62]

Answer: A) Option B

B) 22.3 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature decreases in an exponential decrease, this means that we can write the equation as:

T(x) = A*r^x + B

Where A is the difference between the initial temperature and the room temperature, B is the room temperature, and r is a positive number smaller than 1, that says "how fast" the temperature decreases (and x is the variable, in units of time)

We know that the initial temperature

A = 200° - 72° = 128°

B = 72°

T(x) = 128°r^x + 72°

The only option with those two values is option B.

T(x) = 128(0.989)^x + 72

We should check that when x = 2m, the temperature must be 197°

T(2m) = 128*(0.989)^2 + 72 = 197.2° (that we can round down to 197°)

So this equation is correct

Now we want to find the time such the temperature is 172°F

then:

172° = 128°(0.989)^x + 72°

100° = 128°(0.989)^x

100/128 = (0.989)^x

x = ln(100/128)/ln(0.989) = 22.3 minutes.

Let's check in our equation:

T(22.3) = 128°(0.989)^22.3 + 72 = 172°
