Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
The median is the middle value of the data arranged in ascending order. If there is no exact value in the middle then it is the average of the values either side of the middle.
The data is arranged in ascending order within the dot plot
There are 10 values in the data set
Thus the median is between the fifth and sixth values.
Counting from the left (35)
The fifth value = 39 and the sixth value = 41, thus
median = =
= 40
Answer:
And if we solve for a we got
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".
The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".
Solution to the problem
Let X the random variable that represent the hourly rates of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:
For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:
(a)
(b)
Both conditions are equivalent on this case. We can use the z score again in order to find the value a.
As we can see on the figure attached the z value that satisfy the condition with 0.80 of the area on the left and 0.20 of the area on the right it's z=0.842. On this case P(Z<0.842)=0.8 and P(z>0.842)=0.20
If we use condition (b) from previous we have this:
But we know which value of z satisfy the previous equation so then we can do this:
And if we solve for a we got
Answer:
False
True
False
False
Step-by-step explanation:
1. We have to get the sum as follows :
=
=
=
=
So, this is false.
2. We have to get the sum as follows :
=
=
=
=
So, this is true.
3. We have to get the difference as follows :
=
=
=
=
So, this is false.
4. We have to get the difference as follows :
=
=
=
=
So, this is also false. (Answer)
