An electronic device factory is studying the length of life of the electronic components they produce. The manager takes a rando

m sample of 50 electronic components from the assembly line and records the length of life in the life test. From the sample he found the average length of life was 100,000 hours and that the standard deviation was 3,000 hours. He wants to find the confidence interval for the average length of life of the electronic components they produced. Based on the information, what advice would you give to him?
Select one or more:

a. The distribution of the length of life of the electronic components is usually right skewed. Thus, he should not compute the confidence interval.

b. He did not take a simple random sample of the electronic components; thus he should not compute the confidence interval

c. The mean and standard deviation are large enough to compute the confidence interval.

d. The population is right skewed, but the sample size is large enough to use a normal approximation. Thus he can compute the confidence interval.

e. He can calculate the confidence interval but should use a t-distribution since it deals with an average.

The answer is B because if you have 10000 hours you subtract by 3000 and it’s equals b

Explain how to estimate the square root of 1659
Nata [24]

Explanation:

Find the two closest square numbers to 1659.

40*40=1600

41*41=1681

Decide much closer to either 1600 or 1681 is 1659.

If it is exactly halfway between the two numbers, the square root is 40.5.

If it is closer to 1600, the sq rt decimal is between 1 and 4.

If it is closer to 1681, the sq rt decimal is between 6 and 9.

Suppose you cool a pot of soup in a 20°C room. Right when you take the soup off the stove, you measure its temperature to be 180
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

  • 28.3 minutes
  • 53.6°C

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature of the soup is described by Newton's Law of Cooling, which says the rate of change of temperature is proportional to the difference between the temperatures of the soup and the room. The solution to this differential equation is the exponential function ...

  f(t) = a +b·c^(t/τ)

where a is the room temperature, b is the initial difference in temperature, and c is the fractional change in the difference in temperature over time period τ.

__

<h3>application</h3>

For the given scenario, we find ...

  a = room temperature = 20 . . . . degrees C

  b = (180 -20) = 160 . . . . degrees C

  c = (100 -20)/(180 -20) = 80/160 = 1/2 . . . . in τ = 20 minutes

So, the formula for the temperature of the soup is ...

  f(t) = 20 +160(1/2)^(t/20) . . . . . . . degrees C after t minutes

__

<h3>time to 80°C</h3>

Solving for t when f(t) = 80, we find ...

  80 = 20 +160(1/2)^(t/20)

  3/8 = (1/2)^(t/20) . . . . . subtract 20, divide by 160

  20×log(3/8)/log(1/2) = t ≈ 28.3 . . . take logarithms, divide by coefficient of t

It will take about 28.3 minutes to cool to 80°C.

__

<h3>temp at 45 minutes</h3>

The temperature after 45 minutes is ...

  f(45) = 20 +160(1/2)^(45/20)

  f(45) ≈ 53.6 . . . . degrees C

After 45 minutes the temperature of the soup will be about 53.6°C.
