You will need the same dataset used for problem 3 in homework 1 (the dataset obtained from the yahoo website with the company yo

u selected). Use Excel to calculate the average and standard deviation of the close data column. Assume that these two numbers represent the population (parametric mean and population standard deviation, respectively, for the variable length (in cm) in a population printout of the data to your homework and write down the ticker code on it.
a. Calculate the probability of sampling at random a fish that is smaller in size than the value you would obtain by subtracting half the standard deviation from the average [x will be equal to: -(6/2)]
b. Calculate the probability of sampling at random a fish that is greater in size than the value you would obtain by adding half the standard deviation from the average [x = u + (0/2)]
c. Calculate the probability of sampling at random a fish that has a size between the two values [x = -(6/2), x=u +(6/2)) used in parts "a" and "b," respectively
d. Calculate the 25th and 75 percentiles of fish size for the population using the normal distribution table. e. Imagine that 5 individuals are sampled at random from this fish population. Calculate the probability that the average calculated will be less than the value: -(6/3)

Answer:

a) The probability of sampling at random a fish that is smaller in size than the value you would obtain by subtracting half the standard deviation from the average is 0.3085.

b) The probability of sampling at random a fish that is greater in size than the value you would obtain by adding half the standard deviation from the average is 0.3085.

c) The probability of sampling at random a fish that has a size between the two values is 0.383.

d) The 25th and 75 percentiles of fish size for the population using the normal distribution table is 5.69 and 5.87 respectively.

e) The probability that the average calculated will be less than the value is 0.3707.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the given data set mean (\mu) = 5.75913

Standard deviation (\sigma) = 0.172229

Variance (\sigma2) = 0.0296

Here we get is

a)

P(x < \mu - \sigma/2) = p(x < 5.673) \\\\          = 0.3085

b)

P(x < \mu + \sigma/2) = p(x < 5.845) \\\\= 0.3085

c)

P(\mu - \sigma/2 < x < \mu + \sigma/2) = p(5.673 < x < 5.845) \\\\= 0.383

d)

25th percentile:-

= 25*[(n+1)/100]th term \\\\= 5.69

75the percentile:-

= 75*[(n+1)/100]th term\\\\ = 5.87

e)  

p(x < \mu - \sigma/3) = p(x < 5.7017) \\\\= 0.3707

Determine if the graph is symmetric about the x-axis, the y-axis, or the origin. r = 5 cos 3θ
Aneli [31]
First of all get a picture of what this looks like. Desmos is a pretty good graphing program, but anything that will do polar coordinates will work. 

Here is the graph.

What you can see is that this graph is symmetrical around the x axis.

When you talk about symmetry, you can think of it as taking a mirror and putting it where you think there is symmetry. If you can't tell the difference between the image and the real thing, then you have symmetry.

In this case, the mirror will show symmetry along the x axis and no where else.

Find the new price after the markdown given. Round to the nearest cent if necessary. $5,250 marked down 15%
PIT_PIT [208]

Marked down 15% means the new price would be 85% of the original price ( 100%-15% - 85%)

Multiply the original price by 85%:

5250 x 0.85 = 4462.50

The new price is $4,462.50
