A national dental association conducted a survey to find the average (mean) amount of time dentists spend on dental fillings per

week. Based on a simple random sample, they surveyed 144 dentists. The statistics showed that dentists spent an average of 20 hours per week on fillings with a standard deviation of 10 hours. What is the probability of finding a sample mean less than 18 hours?

Answer:

The probability of finding a sample mean less than 18 hours is 0.0082

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability of finding a sample mean less than 18 hours, we need to calculate the z-score of this sample mean 18. And the probability of finding a sample mean less than 18 hours is P(z<z(18)).

Z-score can be calculated as follows:

z(18)=\frac{X-M}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{N} } } where

  • X is the sample mean (18 hours)
  • M is the average hours dentists spend per week on fillings (20 hours)
  • s is the standard deviation (10 hours)
  • N is the sample size (144)

Putting the numbers, we get:

z(18)=\frac{18-20}{\frac{10}{\sqrt{144} } }=-2.4

Using z- table we can find that P(z<z(18)) = 0.0082

Answer:

55%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percent change formula is written like this:

|\frac{change - original }{original}|. In this scenario, the "change" or new value is 31, because it is this season, and the original is last season. Now, 31-20 = 11, and 11/20 = 55%.

Answer:

  • soccer: $50.31
  • hockey: $57.78

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the FCI for soccer. The given values tell us ...

  s + (s +7.47) = 108.09

  2s = 100.62 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 7.47

  s = 50.31

  s+7.47 = 57.78

The FCI for soccer was $50.31; the FCI for hockey was $57.78.

If x is a positive integer, what is the length of the hypotenuse triangle C?
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

c = 12.73

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

9^2 + 9^2 = c^2

81 + 81 = c^2

162 = c^2

c = \sqrt{162}

c = 12.7279221

c = 12.73
