Answer:

the probability that the sample variance exceeds 3.10 is 0.02020 ( 2,02%)

Step-by-step explanation:

since the variance  S² of the batch follows a normal distribution , then for a sample n of  20 distributions , then the random variable Z:

Z= S²*(n-1)/σ²

follows a χ² ( chi-squared) distribution with (n-1) degrees of freedom

since

S² > 3.10 , σ²= 1.75 , n= 20

thus

Z > 33.65

then from χ² distribution tables:

P(Z > 33.65) = 0.02020

therefore the probability that the sample variance exceeds 3.10 is 0.02020 ( 2,02%)

Answer:

P(s^2 >3.10) =P(\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\sigma^2}>\frac{19*3.10}{1.75})

P(chi^2_{19}>33.657)=1-P(\chi^2_{19]

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The Chi Square distribution is the distribution of the sum of squared standard normal deviates .

Data given and notation

For this case we can use the fact that the estimator of the population variance \sigma is the sample variance s^2, because E(s^2)=\sigma^2

The proof is this one:

Since E(\chi^2) = n-1 and

\chi^2 =\frac{(n-1) s^2}{\sigma^2}

When we take the expected value we got:

E[\frac{(n-1) s^2}{\sigma^2}]= n-1

E[s^2]=\frac{n-1}{n-1}\sigma^2

E[s^2]=\sigma^2

We have the distribution on this case given chi square.

Solution to the problem

The degrees of freddom on this case are given by

df=n-1=20-1=19

On this case we want this probability:

P(s^2 >3.10) =P(\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\sigma^2}>\frac{19*3.10}{1.75})

P(chi^2_{19}>33.657)=1-P(\chi^2_{19}

And we can use excel to find the probability with the following code:"=1-CHISQ.DIST(33.657,19,TRUE) "

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer: -81/5 = improper fraction ; 16 1/5 = mixed number ; -16.2 = decimal form.

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)      -26 - (-9 4/5)

Turn your mixed number into a improper fraction then find the least common denominator.

-26/1 + 49/5 = improper fraction, the reason we can't add yet is because the denominators aren't the same so we have to find the common denominator which will be 5.

-130/5 + 49/5 = -81/5 = The Improper Way!!

(2)     5/-81 = -16 R1  turns into a mixed number = -16 1/5 = Mixed Number Way

(3) just type in -81/5 in yo calculator and u gone get -16.2

BASICALLY YOUR ANSWER IS -81/5 THATS ALL U NEED TO KNOW!!!

The quotient of twice a number p and 14.
Mrac [35]
<span><span>1.       </span>The quotient of twice a number p and 14
Let’s identify each
=> the quotient = the answer from division
=> twice a number p = 2p
=> 14
=> 2p / 14
Let’s find the value of p
=> 2p = 14
=> p = 14 / 2
=> p = 7 = the value of a number P is 7
Now, let’s solve
=> 2(7) / 14
=> 14 / 14 = 1 the quotient is 1</span>

A car was bought for $20,000 and has depreciated at a rate of 10% yearly. Find the price of the car 8 years later.
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

$4,000

Step-by-step explanation:

10% of $20,000 is $2,000, which means the price of the car is decreasing by $2,000 each year. After 8 years, the price of the car has decreased by $16,000 ($2,000 times 8 years). The totals cost of the car is now $4,000, as it was originally $20,000, but decreased by $16,000. (20,000-16,000=4,000).
