A bank located in a commercial district of a city has developed an improved process for serving customers during the noon to 1:0

0 PM peak lunch period. The waiting time (as defined as the time the customer enters the line until he or she is served) of all customers during this hour is recorded over a period of 1 week. A random sample of 15 customers is selected, and the results are as follows:
4.21, 5.55, 3.02, 5.13, 4.77, 2.34, 3.54, 3.20, 4.50, 6.10, 0.38, 5.12, 6.46, 6.19, 3.79

(a) Set up a 95% confidence interval for estimating the average waiting time during peak hours.
(b) At the 0.05 level of significance, is there evidence that the average waiting time is less than 5 minutes?
(c) Find the p-value for part(b).
(d) What assumption must hold in order to perform the test in part(b)?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a bank located in a commercial district of a city has developed an improved process for serving customers during the noon to 1:00 PM peak lunch period. The waiting time (as defined as the time the customer enters the line until he or she is served) of all customers during this hour is recorded over a period of 1 week.

A random sample of 15 customers is selected, and the results are as follows:

4.21, 5.55, 3.02, 5.13, 4.77, 2.34, 3.54, 3.20, 4.50, 6.10, 0.38, 5.12, 6.46, 6.19, 3.79

a) Mean difference= -0.713

Std error = 0.4229

df = 14

Margin of error = 0.9082

Confidence interval = (4.287-0.9082, 4.287+0.9082)

= (3.3788,5.1352)

b) H0: Mean = 5

Ha: Mean <5

Mean diference = 4.287-5 =-0.713

t=-1.686

c) p value = 0.0569

Since p >0.05 we accept null hypothesis.  The average time is less than 5 minutes cannot be accepted.

d)

Assumptions are:

The data is normally distributed

Scale of measurement should be interval or ratio

A randomized sample from a defined population

Tanner cycled 8 miles in 20 minutes .What is the constant of proportionality based on the situation
solmaris [256]

The constant of proportionality based on the situation is 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Tanner cycled 8 miles in 20 minutes

We need to find the constant of proportionality based on the situation

1. The distance is proportion to the time, because the distance and

   the time increased together

2. If the distance d and the time is t, then d ∝ t

3. The equation of the direct proportion is d = k t, where k is the

    constant of proportionality

∵ d = k t

∵ d = 8 miles

∵ t = 20 minutes

- Substitute these values in the equation above

∴ 8 = k (20)

- Divide both sides by 20

∴ k = 0.4

The constant of proportionality based on the situation is 0.4

The point (8,-4) lies on a circle. What is the length of the radius of this circle if the center is located at (5,-7)
Kamila [148]
Notice the picture, the radius is just the distance from the
center to a point on the circle, thus

\bf \textit{distance between 2 points}\\ \quad \\\\&#10;\begin{array}{lllll}&#10;&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\&#10;%  (a,b)&#10;&({{5}}\quad ,&{{ -7}})\quad &#10;%  (c,d)&#10;&({{ 8}}\quad ,&{{ -4}})&#10;\end{array}\qquad &#10;%  distance value&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;d = &\sqrt{({{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}})^2 + ({{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}})^2}\\&#10;&\qquad \uparrow \\&#10;&radius&#10;\end{array}

\bf \begin{array}{llll}&#10;d = &\sqrt{({{ 8}}-{{ 5}})^2 + ({{ -4}}-{{(-7)}})^2}\\&#10;&\qquad \uparrow \\&#10;&radius&#10;\end{array}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;d=\sqrt{(3)^2+(-4+7)^2}\implies d=\sqrt{3^2+3^2}\implies d=\sqrt{18}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;d=\sqrt{9\cdot 2}\implies d=\sqrt{3^2\cdot 2}\implies d=3\sqrt{2}

A rectangular box 4 meters long, 3 meters wide and 2 meters tall. On the box is a cat, and the box is floating in water such tha
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Mass of the cat  = 16800kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the box = its length * its breath * its height- 4m × 3m × 2m = 24m^{3}

The standard density of water is 1000 Kg/m^{3}

By Archimedes principle, the mass of a body  floating body is equivalent to the mass of the volume liquid displaced

in this case we have

Mass of water displaced = Density of the water × Volume of the water  displaced =   1000 Kg/m^{3} × 24m^{3} = 24000kg

The mass of the box = Box density × Box volume = 24m^{3} × 300kg/m^{3} = 7200 kg Hence the mass of water displaced = mass of the foating box + mass of th cat

24000kg =  mass of cat +7200kg

mass of cat = 24000kg - 7200kg = 16800kg

X – 7y = –11<br> 5x + 2y = -18
laiz [17]

Answer:

hope this help you

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

X + -7y = -11

Solving

X + -7y = -11  

Solving for variable 'X'.

Move all terms containing X to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '7y' to each side of the equation.

X + -7y + 7y = -11 + 7y

Combine like terms: -7y + 7y = 0

X = -11 + 7y

Simplifying

X = -11 + 7y

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Solving

5x + 2y = -18

Solving for variable 'x'.

Add '-2y' to each side of the equation.

5x + 2y + -2y = -18 + -2y

Combine like terms: 2y + -2y = 0

5x = -18 + -2y

Divide each side by '5'.

x = -3.6 + -0.4y

Simplifying

x = -3.6 + -0.4y
