Answer:

105 cc of 7% solution

245 cc of 17% solution

Step-by-step explanation:

If x = volume of 7% solution, and y = volume of 17% solution, then:

x + y = 350

0.07x + 0.17y = 0.14(350)

Solve with substitution:

0.07x + 0.17(350 − x) = 0.14(350)

0.07x + 59.5 − 0.17x = 49

10.5 = 0.10x

x = 105

y = 245

Majesty Video Production Inc. wants the mean length of its advertisements to be 26 seconds. Assume the distribution of ad length
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

a) By the Central Limit Theorem, approximately normally distributed, with mean 26 and standard error 0.44.

b) s = 0.44

c) 0.84% of the sample means will be greater than 27.05 seconds

d) 98.46% of the sample means will be greater than 25.05 seconds

e) 97.62% of the sample means will be greater than 25.05 but less than 27.05 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the zscore of a measure X is given by:

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

The Z-score 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. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean \mu and standard deviation(also called standard error) s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}.

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 26, \sigma = 2, n = 21, s = \frac{2}{\sqrt{21}} = 0.44

a. What can we say about the shape of the distribution of the sample mean time?

By the Central Limit Theorem, approximately normally distributed, with mean 26 and standard error 0.44.

b. What is the standard error of the mean time? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places)

s = \frac{2}{\sqrt{21}} = 0.44

c. What percent of the sample means will be greater than 27.05 seconds?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 27.05. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{27.05 - 26}{0.44}

Z = 2.39

Z = 2.39 has a pvalue of 0.9916

1 - 0.9916 = 0.0084

0.84% of the sample means will be greater than 27.05 seconds

d. What percent of the sample means will be greater than 25.05 seconds?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 25.05. So

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{25.05 - 26}{0.44}

Z = -2.16

Z = -2.16 has a pvalue of 0.0154

1 - 0.0154 = 0.9846

98.46% of the sample means will be greater than 25.05 seconds

e. What percent of the sample means will be greater than 25.05 but less than 27.05 seconds?"

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 27.05 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 25.05.

X = 27.05

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{27.05 - 26}{0.44}

Z = 2.39

Z = 2.39 has a pvalue of 0.9916

X = 25.05

Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}

Z = \frac{25.05 - 26}{0.44}

Z = -2.16

Z = -2.16 has a pvalue of 0.0154

0.9916 - 0.0154 = 0.9762

97.62% of the sample means will be greater than 25.05 but less than 27.05 seconds

In the diagram of a quadrilateral below, the variables represent the length of the sides in inches.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
Add 11 + 16. Plug in 11 into b-2 since b equals eleven. You should now have 11+16+11-2. Do the same thing and plug in 16 for c and 11 for b for c-b. Your solution will now be 11+16+11-2+16-11.
