The mean cost of a five pound bag of shrimp is 40 dollars with a standard deviation of 7 dollars. If a sample of 51 bags of shri

Answer:

$P(|\bar{x}-40| > 0.6)=0.5404$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 40 dollars

Standard Deviation, σ = 7 dollars

Sample size,n = 51

We are given that the distribution of cost of shrimp is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

Standard error due to sampling =

$=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \dfrac{7}{\sqrt{51}} = 0.9801$

P(sample mean would differ by true mean by more than 0.6)

$P(|\bar{x}-40| > 0.6)\\\Rightarrow = 1-P(39.4$

$P(39.4 \leq x \leq 40.6) \\\\= P(\displaystyle\frac{39.4 - 40}{0.9801} \leq z \leq \displaystyle\frac{40.6-40}{0.9801})\\\\ = P(-0.6121 \leq z \leq 0.6121)\\= P(z \leq 0.6121) - P(z < -0.6121)\\= 0.7298 - 0.2702 =0.4596$

$P(|\bar{x}|-40 > 0.6)\\= 1-0.4596=0.5404$

0.5404 is the required probability.

what is the smallest positive integer a such that the intermediate value theorem guarantees a zero exists between 0 and a?

liberstina [14]

The smallest positive integer that the intermediate value theorem guarantees a zero exists between 0 and a is 3.

What is the intermediate value theorem?

Intermediate value theorem is theorem about all possible y-value in between two known y-value.

x-intercepts

-x^2 + x + 2 = 0

x^2 - x - 2 = 0

(x + 1)(x - 2) = 0

x = -1, x = 2

y intercepts

f(0) = -x^2 + x + 2

f(0) = -0^2 + 0 + 2

f(0) = 2

(Graph attached)

From the graph we know the smallest positive integer value that the intermediate value theorem guarantees a zero exists between 0 and a is 3

For proof, the zero exists when x = 2 and f(3) = -4 < 0 and f(0) = 2 > 0.

Your question is not complete, but most probably your full questions was

Given the polynomial f(x)=− x 2 +x+2 , what is the smallest positive integer a such that the Intermediate Value Theorem guarantees a zero exists between 0 and a ?

Thus, the smallest positive integer that the intermediate value theorem guarantees a zero exists between 0 and a is 3.
