The answer has to be in y-intercept form. Which is y=mx+b and b can also be neg. y=mx-b. The m is your slope and b is your y-intercept. So A’s slope counting from 3 on the y axis to 1 on the x-axis which is down 2 over 1 so it will be -2/1. And your y intercept is 3. The equation is y=-2x+3. For B its the same thing but no graph. Remember that slope is RISE over RUN. So since the number is on the bottom of the line the rise is 4 and the run is 1. So in this case 10 is your y-intercept. Which means you equation is y=4x+10.
Answer:
a) P(7.99 ≤ X ≤ 8.01) = 0.8164
b) P(X ≥ 8.01) = 0.0475.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we have 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 can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean
In this problem, we have that:
(a) Calculate P(7.99 ≤ X ≤ 8.01) when n = 16.
n = 16, so
This probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 8.01 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 7.99. So
X = 8.01
Applying the Central Limit Theorem
has a pvalue of 0.9082
X = 7.99
has a pvalue of 0.0918
0.9082 - 0.0918 = 0.8164
P(7.99 ≤ X ≤ 8.01) = 0.8164
(b) How likely is it that the sample mean diameter exceeds 8.01 when n = 25? P(X ≥ 8.01) =
n = 25, so
This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 8.01. So
has a pvalue of 0.9525
1 - 0.9525 = 0.0475
P(X ≥ 8.01) = 0.0475.
