The number of diners at a restaurant each day is recorded and a daily average is calculated every month (assume 30 days in a mon

th). The number of diners each day has a mean of 107 and a standard deviation of 60, but does not necessarily follow a normal distribution.The probability that a daily average over a given month is greater than x is 2.5%. Calculate x. You may find standard normal table useful. Give your answer to 3 decimal places.x =

Answer:

x = 128.472

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 normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes 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 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.

The number of diners each day has a mean of 107 and a standard deviation of 60.

This means that \mu = 107, \sigma = 60

Distribution of the daily average:

Over a month of 30 days, so n = 30, s = \frac{60}{\sqrt{30}} = 10.955

The probability that a daily average over a given month is greater than x is 2.5%. Calculate x.

This is X when Z has a p-value of 1 - 0.025 = 0.975, so X when Z = 1.96. Then

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

1.96 = \frac{X - 107}{10.955}

X - 107 = 1.96*10.955

X = 128.472

So x = 128.472

Please help if you can ik it is Pythagorean theorem
kicyunya [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

A = (1/2)bh ---> h = 2A/b = 2(12 cm^2)/(5 cm) = 4.80 cm

---> x^2 = h^2 + (b/2)^2

= (4.8 cm)^2 + (2.5)^2

= 23.04 cm^2 + 6.25 cm^2

or x = 5.41 cm

Therefore, the perimeter P is

P = 2x + b = 2(5.41 cm) + 5 cm = 15.8 cm

Analyze tables use the table that shows the percents of blood types of 145 donors during a recent blood drive
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

a. 16

b. 80

c. Blood type AB

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

O = 45%

A = 40%

B = 11%

AB = 4%

Total number of donors = 145

a. No. of donors that had type B blood = \frac{11}{100}*145 = \frac{1,595}{100} = 15.95

Type B blood donors ≈ 16

b. No. of blood donors without blood type O = \frac{40 + 11 + 4}{100}*145 = \frac{55}{100}*145 = \frac{7,975}{100} = 79.75

Those without blood type O ≈ 80

c. Find the number of people that had type AB:

Type AB = \frac{4}{100}*145 = 5.8 ≈ 6. This is less than 10 donors.

Therefore, blood type AB had less than 10 donors.
