Researchers found that a person in a particular country spent an average of 5.5 hours a day watching TV in 2010. Assume the popu

lation standard deviation is 1.8 hours per day. A sample of 39 people averaged 6.3 hours of television viewing per day. Does this result support the findings of the​ study?

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Because 6.3hours is still in the range 5.5+/-1.8 hours

Therefore the result support the findings of the study.

Jordana wrote the equation for a linear relationship as y = -8x-4. For what value of x is y equal to -16
victus00 [196]
So our two equations are y=-8x-4 and y=-16, and since in both equations, something equals the same y, those two are the same. So we can combine the two into -16=-8x-4. In the question, they are asking to solve for x. So to do that, you need to isolate your variable. Now for solving algebraic equations, you use reverse PEMDAS (SADMEP), meaning you add 4 to both sides to clear the -4 one the rights side to get -12=-8x. Then you divide both sides by -8 to get 12/8, which simplifies to 3/2.

If y varies directly with x when y=8,x=20 find the value of x when y=42
Alecsey [184]

The value of x is 105 when y=42

Step-by-step explanation:

A direct proportion means that the change in one quantity will also cause the change in other quantity

Given

y varies directly with x

x ∝ y

when the proportionality symbol is removed a proportionality constant is introduced

x=ky\\k=\frac{x}{y}\\Putting\ y=8\ and\ x=20\\k=\frac{20}{8}\\k = \frac{5}{2}\\So,\ the\ equation\ will\ be\\x=\frac{5}{2}y\\Putting\ y=42\\x=\frac{5}{2}*42\\x=5*21\\x= 105

The value of x is 105 when y=42

Consider an algorithm that uses only assignment statements that replaces the quadruple (w, x, y, z) with (x, y, z, w). What is t
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

The minimum number of assignment statements needed is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the algorithm, we apply the strategy of interchanging the values of variables in the assignment statements.

Assume "tmp" is the new variable, let assign tmp to w

The algorithm is:

Procedure exchange (w,x,y,z: integers)

 tmp := w

    w := x

     x := y

     y := z

     z := tmp

    return (w,x,y,z)

end

From the algorithm, it is obvious that there will be a minimum of 5 assignment statements needed.

Suppose that when a transistor of a certain type is subjected to an accelerated life test, the lifetime x (in weeks) has a gamma
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

a) P(1 \leq X \leq 40)

In order to find this probability we can use excel with the following code:

=GAMMA.DIST(40;5,8,TRUE)-GAMMA.DIST(1,5,8,TRUE)

And we got:

P(1 \leq X \leq 40)=0.560

b) P(X \geq 40)=1-P(X

In order to find this probability we can use excel with the following code:

=1-GAMMA.DIST(40,5,8,TRUE)

And we got:

P(X \geq 40)=1-P(X

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The Gamma distribution "is a continuous, positive-only, unimodal distribution that encodes the time required for \alpha events to occur in a Poisson process with mean arrival time of \beta"

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable that represent the lifetime for transistors

For this case we have the mean and the variance given. And we have defined the mean and variance like this:

\mu = 40 = \alpha \beta  (1)

\sigma^2 =320= \alpha \beta^2  (2)

From this we can solve \alpha and [/tex]\beta[/tex]

From the condition (1) we can solve for \alpha and we got:

\alpha= \frac{40}{\beta}    (3)

And if we replace condition (3) into (2) we got:

320= \frac{40}{\beta} \beta^2 = 40 \beta

And solving for \beta = 8

And now we can use condition (3) to find \alpha

\alpha=\frac{40}{8}=5

So then we have the parameters for the Gamma distribution. On this case X \sim Gamma (\alpha= 5, \beta=8)

Part a

For this case we want this probability:

P(1 \leq X \leq 40)

In order to find this probability we can use excel with the following code:

=GAMMA.DIST(40;5,8,TRUE)-GAMMA.DIST(1,5,8,TRUE)

And we got:

P(1 \leq X \leq 40)=0.560

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

P(X \geq 40)=1-P(X

In order to find this probability we can use excel with the following code:

=1-GAMMA.DIST(40,5,8,TRUE)

And we got:

P(X \geq 40)=1-P(X
