Kevin is observing the population of the fish he put into a pond. He built a pond and populated it with 500 fish. The population

LuckyWell [14K]

Given that the number of years should be represented with x, the number of fish in the pond after x years should best be represented with f(x). The equation that would best show the given scenario in the problem above is,
f(x) = 500(2^x)
From the given, 500 is used as the initial population of the fish.

Intravenous fluid bags are filled by an automated filling machine. Assume that the fill volumes of the bags are independent, nor

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Let X the random variable that represent the heights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(\mu,0.08)$

Where $\mu$ and $\sigma=0.08$

Since the distribution for X is normal then the we know that the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

And the standard error is given by:

$SE= \frac{0.08}{\sqrt{24}}= 0.0163$

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 heights of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

$X \sim N(\mu,0.08)$

Where $\mu$ and $\sigma=0.08$

Since the distribution for X is normal then the we know that the distribution for the sample mean $\bar X$ is given by:

$\bar X \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

And the standard error is given by:

$SE= \frac{0.08}{\sqrt{24}}= 0.0163$

The kinetic energy (in joules) of a moving object can be calculated from the expression 1/2mv^2, where m is the mass of the obje

algol13

Answer: $116\text{ joules}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mass of baseball=0.145 kg

Speed of baseball=40 meters per second

Also it is given that The kinetic energy (in joules) of a moving object can be calculated from the expression $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ , where 'm' is the mass of the object in kilograms and 'v' is its speed in meters per second.

Thus, the kinetic energy of baseball= $\frac{1}{2}(0.145)(40)^2$

$\frac{1}{2}(0.145)(1600)=116\text{ joules}$

A toy manufacturer wants to know how many new toys children buy each year. A sample of 305 children was taken to study their pur

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The 80% confidence interval for the mean number of toys purchased each year is between 7.5 and 7.7 toys.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that to find our $\alpha$ level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

$\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.8}{2} = 0.1$

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of $1 - \alpha$ .

That is z with a pvalue of $1 - 0.1 = 0.9$ , so Z = 1.28.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

$M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

In which $\sigma$ is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

$M = 1.28\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{305}} = 0.1$

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 7.6 - 0.1 = 7.5

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 7.6 + 0.1 = 7.7

The 80% confidence interval for the mean number of toys purchased each year is between 7.5 and 7.7 toys.
