Answer:

(a) X ~ N(\mu=63, \sigma^{2} = 13^{2}).

    \bar X ~ N(\mu=63,s^{2} = (\frac{13}{\sqrt{43} } )^{2}).

(b) If a single randomly selected individual is observed, the probability that this person consumes is between 61.4 mL and 62.8 mL is 0.0398.

(c) For the group of 43 pancake eaters, the probability that the average amount of syrup is between 61.4 mL and 62.8 mL is 0.2512.

(d) Yes, for part (d), the assumption that the distribution is normally distributed necessary.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the amount of syrup that people put on their pancakes is normally distributed with mean 63 mL and a standard deviation of 13 mL.

Suppose that 43 randomly selected people are observed pouring syrup on their pancakes.

(a) Let X = <u><em>amount of syrup that people put on their pancakes</em></u>

The z-score probability distribution for the normal distribution is given by;

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

where, \mu = mean amount of syrup = 63 mL

            \sigma = standard deviation = 13 mL

So, the distribution of X ~ N(\mu=63, \sigma^{2} = 13^{2}).

Let \bar X = <u><em>sample mean amount of syrup that people put on their pancakes</em></u>

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

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

where, \mu = mean amount of syrup = 63 mL

            \sigma = standard deviation = 13 mL

            n = sample of people = 43

So, the distribution of \bar X ~ N(\mu=63,s^{2} = (\frac{13}{\sqrt{43} } )^{2}).

(b) If a single randomly selected individual is observed, the probability that this person consumes is between 61.4 mL and 62.8 mL is given by = P(61.4 mL < X < 62.8 mL)

   P(61.4 mL < X < 62.8 mL) = P(X < 62.8 mL) - P(X \leq 61.4 mL)

  P(X < 62.8 mL) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{62.8-63}{13} ) = P(Z < -0.02) = 1 - P(Z \leq 0.02)

                                                           = 1 - 0.50798 = 0.49202

  P(X \leq 61.4 mL) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} \leq \frac{61.4-63}{13} ) = P(Z \leq -0.12) = 1 - P(Z < 0.12)

                                                           = 1 - 0.54776 = 0.45224

Therefore, P(61.4 mL < X < 62.8 mL) = 0.49202 - 0.45224 = 0.0398.

(c) For the group of 43 pancake eaters, the probability that the average amount of syrup is between 61.4 mL and 62.8 mL is given by = P(61.4 mL < \bar X < 62.8 mL)

   P(61.4 mL < \bar X < 62.8 mL) = P(\bar X < 62.8 mL) - P(\bar X \leq 61.4 mL)

  P(\bar X < 62.8 mL) = P( \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } < \frac{62.8-63}{\frac{13}{\sqrt{43} } } ) = P(Z < -0.10) = 1 - P(Z \leq 0.10)

                                                           = 1 - 0.53983 = 0.46017

  P(\bar X \leq 61.4 mL) = P( \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } \leq \frac{61.4-63}{\frac{13}{\sqrt{43} } } ) = P(Z \leq -0.81) = 1 - P(Z < 0.81)

                                                           = 1 - 0.79103 = 0.20897

Therefore, P(61.4 mL < X < 62.8 mL) = 0.46017 - 0.20897 = 0.2512.

(d) Yes, for part (d), the assumption that the distribution is normally distributed necessary.

Which statement is true about the discontinuities of the function f(x) = x-5/3x^2-17x-28
o-na [289]
1) function f(x)

              x - 5
f(x) = ----------------
          3x^2 - 17x - 28

2) factor the denominator:

3x^2 - 17x  - 28 = (3x + 4)(x - 7)

                        x - 5
=> f(x) = -----------------------
                (3x + 4) (x  - 7)

3) Find the limits when x → - 4/3 and when x → 7

Lim of f(x) when x → - 4/3 = +/- ∞

=> vertical assymptote x = - 4/3

Lim of f(x) when x → 7 = +/- ∞

=> vertical assymptote x = 7

Answer: there are assympotes at x = 7 and x = - 4/3

If John has pairs of red, orange, yellow, blue and green socks, how many can he wear them in over 5 days, repetition is allowed
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Total ways = 5×5×5×5×5

Total ways = 5^5

Total ways = 3125

Therefore, the correct option is C) 5^5

Step-by-step explanation:

John has pairs of red, orange, yellow, blue and green socks.

Which means that John has 5 different colors pairs of socks.

We are asked to find out in how many ways can he wear them over 5 days.

1st Day:

On the first day John has 5 ways to choose from.

2nd Day:

On the second day John has 5×5 ways to choose from.

(Since repetition is allowed)

3rd Day:

On the third day John has 5×5×5 ways to choose from.

4th Day:

On the fourth day John has 5×5×5×5 ways to choose from.

5th Day:

On the fifth day John has 5×5×5×5×5 ways to choose from.

Total ways = 5×5×5×5×5

Total ways = 5^5

Total ways = 3125

Therefore, the correct option is C) 5^5
