John Calipari, head basketball coach for the national champion University of Kentucky Wildcats, is the highest paid coach in col

lege basketball with an annual salary of million (USA Today, March 29, 2012). The following sample shows the head basketball coach's salary for a sample of schools playing NCAA Division basketball. Salary data are in millions of dollars.
University Coach's Salary University Coach's Salary
Indian 2.2 Syracuse 1.5
Xavier .5 Murry State .2
Texas 2.4 Florida State 1.1
Connecticut 2.7 South Dekota State .1
West Virginia 2.0 Vermont .2
A. Use the sample mean for the 10 schools to estimate the population mean annual salary for head basketball coaches at colleges and universities playing NCAA Division 1 basketball (to 2 decimal).
B. Use the data to estimate the population standard deviation for the annual salary for head basketball coaches (to 4 decimals).
C. what is the 95% confidence interval for the population variance (to 2 decimals)?

Answer:

A) sample mean = $1.36 million

B) standard deviation = $0.9189 million

C) variance confidence interval = ($0.40 million, $2.81 million)

D) standard deviation confidence interval = ($1.93 million , $0.79 million)

*since the sample size is very small, the confidence interval is not valid.

Step-by-step explanation:

samples:

  1. $2.7 million
  2. $2.4 million
  3. $2.2 million
  4. $2 million
  5. $1.5 million
  6. $1.5 million
  7. $0.5 million
  8. $0.5 million
  9. $0.2 million
  10. $0.1 million

sample mean = $1.36 million

the standard deviation:

  • $2.7 million - $1.36 million = 1.34² = 1.7956
  • $2.4 million - $1.36 million = 1.04² = 1.0816
  • $2.2 million - $1.36 million = 0.84² = 0.7056
  • $2 million - $1.36 million = 0.64² = 0.4096
  • $1.5 million - $1.36 million = 0.14² = 0.0196
  • $1.5 million - $1.36 million = 0.14² = 0.0196
  • $0.5 million - $1.36 million = -0.86² = 0.7396
  • $0.5 million - $1.36 million = -0.86² = 0.7396
  • $0.2 million - $1.36 million = -1.16² = 1.3456
  • $0.1 million - $1.36 million = -1.26² = 1.5876
  • total $8.444 million / 10 = $0.8444 million

variance 0.8444

standard deviation = √0.8444 = 0.9189

in order to calculate the confidence interval for the population variance we are going to use a chi-square distribution with 2.5% on each tail ⇒ table values 2.7004 and 19.023 enclose 95% of the distribution.

[(n - 1) x variance] / 2.7004 = (9 x 0.8444) / 2.7004 = 2.81

[(n - 1) x variance] / 19.023 = (9 x 0.8444) / 19.023 = 0.40

95% confidence interval = mean +/- 1.96 standard deviations/√n:

$1.36 million + [(1.96 x $0.9189 million)/√10] = $1.36 million + $0.57 million = $1.93 million

$1.36 million - $0.57 million = $0.79 million

A bucket that weighs 4lband a rope of negligible weight are used todraw water from a well that is 80ftdeep. The bucket is filled
liq [111]

Answer:

Workdone = 3200 lb.ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the bucket is filled with 40 lb of water but water leaks out of a hole in the bucket at a rate of 0.2lb/s

Thus,

Weight of water at any given time (t) would be;

w(t) = 40 - 0.2t - - - - (1)

We are told the bucket is pulled up at a rate of 2ft/s.

Thus, height at time (t); y = 0 + 2t = 2t

Since y = 2t,

Then,t = y/2

Put y/2 for t in eq 1

Thus; w(y) = 40 - 0.2(y/2)

w(y) = 40 - 0.1y

Now, at y = 80 ft, we have;

w(80) = 40 - 0.1(80)

w(80) = 40 - 8 = 32 lb

Since 32 lbs are left, it means there is always water in the bucket.

Thus, work done is;

W = 80,0[∫(Total weight).dy]

W = 80,0[∫[(weight of rope) + (weight of bucket) + (weight of water)]dy]

W = 80,0[∫[0 + 4 + 40 - 0.1y]dy]

Integrating, we have;

W = [44y - y²/20] at boundary of 80 and 0

So,

W = [44(80) - 80²/20] - [0 - 0²/20]

W = 3200 lb.ft

Angie makes a spicy salsa by adding red pepper flakes to a chunky tomato mix in proportional amounts. For example she mixes 1/2
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Please read the answer below.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's represent the relationship between red pepper flakes, in teaspoons, to tomato mix, in cups in a table

Red pepper (teaspoons)   1/2    1    1 1/2   2  2 1/2   3  3 1/2   4  4 1/2   5      

Tomato mix (cups)              2     4       6     8    10     12   14     16   18    20

2. Let's represent the relationship between red pepper flakes, in teaspoons, to tomato mix, in cups writing a equation:

t = amount of tomato mix cups

r = amount of red pepper flakes teaspoons

As we can see in the table,

<u>t = 4r</u>

What is the recursive formula for this sequence? 24,20,16,12
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

28 - 4n

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the recursive formula for this sequence? 24,20,16,12

the sequence first term is 24

a= 24

Common difference (d) = T2 - T1 = T3 - T2

d = 20-24 = 16 -20

d = -4

Formula for nth term

Tn = a + (n-1)d

Tn = 24 + (n -1)-4

Tn = 24 -4n + 4

Tn = 28 - 4n

= 28 - 4n
