Total ducks = 8

blue winged ducks =2

fraction of ducks having blue wings =2/8 =1/4

The hourly median power (in decibels) of received radio signals transmitted between two cities
trasher [3.6K]

Using the lognormal and the binomial distributions, it is found that:

  • The 90th percentile of this distribution is of 136 dB.
  • There is a 0.9147 = 91.47% probability that received power for one of these radio signals is  less than 150 decibels.
  • There is a 0.0065 = 0.65% probability that for  6 of these signals, the received power is less than 150 decibels.

In a <em>lognormal </em>distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score of a measure X is given by:

Z = \frac{\ln{X} - \mu}{\sigma}

  • It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  
  • After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem:

  • The mean is of \mu = 3.5.
  • The standard deviation is of \sigma = \sqrt{1.22}

Question 1:

The 90th percentile is X when Z has a p-value of 0.9, hence <u>X when Z = 1.28.</u>

Z = \frac{\ln{X} - \mu}{\sigma}

1.28 = \frac{\ln{X} - 3.5}{\sqrt{1.22}}

\ln{X} - 3.5 = 1.28\sqrt{1.22}

\ln{X} = 1.28\sqrt{1.22} + 3.5

e^{\ln{X}} = e^{1.28\sqrt{1.22} + 3.5}

X = 136

The 90th percentile of this distribution is of 136 dB.

Question 2:

The probability is the <u>p-value of Z when X = 150</u>, hence:

Z = \frac{\ln{X} - \mu}{\sigma}

Z = \frac{\ln{150} - 3.5}{\sqrt{1.22}}

Z = 1.37

Z = 1.37 has a p-value of 0.9147.

There is a 0.9147 = 91.47% probability that received power for one of these radio signals is  less than 150 decibels.

Question 3:

10 signals, hence, the binomial distribution is used.

Binomial probability distribution

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

The parameters are:

  • x is the number of successes.
  • n is the number of trials.
  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

For this problem, we have that p = 0.9147, n = 10, and we want to find P(X = 6), then:

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

P(X = 6) = C_{10,6}.(0.9147)^{6}.(0.0853)^{4} = 0.0065

There is a 0.0065 = 0.65% probability that for  6 of these signals, the received power is less than 150 decibels.

if a staircase rises 52° from the ground and a vertical distance of 12 yards. How much horizontal distance does the staircase co
3241004551 [841]
The horizontal distance will be found using the formula:
tan θ= opposite/adjacent
given that θ=52°
opposite= 12 yards
adjacent=x
hence
tan 52=12/x
x=12/tan 52
x=9.3754
the height is 9.375 yards

Please help me I don’t understand this at all and I need to pass quits so please somebody out there help me
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

B) Undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical lines do not have a horizontal change; the line goes straight up and down. In other words, the change in the x values between any points on the graph is always 0, which would make the denominator of the slope 0. Since anything divided by 0 is undefined, the slope of a vertical line is <u>undefined</u>.
