Answer:

we don't know the exact value of "a number" so we can assign it the letter value x

so we know that x-8 is less than or equal to 17

you would solve this the same way you would solve any other equation so

x is less than or equal to 25

A normally distributed population has mean 57,800 and standard deviation 750. Find the probability that a single randomly select
Stels [109]

Answer:

(a) Probability that a single randomly selected element X of the population is between 57,000 and 58,000 = 0.46411

(b) Probability that the mean of a sample of size 100 drawn from this population is between 57,000 and 58,000 = 0.99621

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a normally distributed population has mean 57,800 and standard deviation 75, i.e.; \mu = 57,800  and  \sigma = 750.

Let X = randomly selected element of the population

The z probability is given by;

           Z = \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} ~ N(0,1)  

(a) So, P(57,000 <= X <= 58,000) = P(X <= 58,000) - P(X < 57,000)

P(X <= 58,000) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} <= \frac{58000-57800}{750} ) = P(Z <= 0.27) = 0.60642

P(X < 57000) = P( \frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} < \frac{57000-57800}{750} ) = P(Z < -1.07) = 1 - P(Z <= 1.07)

                                                          = 1 - 0.85769 = 0.14231

Therefore, P(31 < X < 40) = 0.60642 - 0.14231 = 0.46411 .

(b) Now, we are given sample of size, n = 100

So, Mean of X, X bar = 57,800 same as before

But standard deviation of X, s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } = \frac{750}{\sqrt{100} } = 75

The z probability is given by;

           Z = \frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } ~ N(0,1)  

Now, probability that the mean of a sample of size 100 drawn from this population is between 57,000 and 58,000 = P(57,000 < X bar < 58,000)

P(57,000 <= X bar <= 58,000) = P(X bar <= 58,000) - P(X bar < 57,000)

P(X bar <= 58,000) = P( \frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } <= \frac{58000-57800}{\frac{750}{\sqrt{100} } } ) = P(Z <= 2.67) = 0.99621

P(X < 57000) = P( \frac{Xbar-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } } < \frac{57000-57800}{\frac{750}{\sqrt{100} } } ) = P(Z < -10.67) = P(Z > 10.67)

This probability is that much small that it is very close to 0

Therefore, P(57,000 < X bar < 58,000) = 0.99621 - 0 = 0.99621 .

Find the dimensions of the open rectangular box of maximum volume that can be made from a sheet of cardboard 11 in. by 7 in. by
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

The dimension of the open rectangular box is 8.216\times 4.216\times 1.392.

The volume of the box is 8.217 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The open rectangular box of maximum volume that can be made from a sheet of cardboard 11 in. by 7 in. by cutting congruent squares from the corners and folding up the sides.

To find : The dimensions and the volume of the open rectangular box ?

Solution :

Let the height be 'x'.

The length of the box is '11-2x'.

The breadth of the box is '7-2x'.

The volume of the box is V=l\times b\times h

V=(11-2x)\times (7-2x)\times x

V=4x^3-36x^2+77x

Derivate w.r.t x,

V'(x)=4(3x^2)-2(36x)+77

V'(x)=12x^2-72x+77

The critical point when V'(x)=0

12x^2-72x+77=0

Solve by quadratic formula,

x=\frac{18+\sqrt{93}}{6},\frac{18-\sqrt{93}}{6}

x=4.607,1.392

Derivate again w.r.t x,

V''(x)=24x-72

Now, V''(4.607)=24(4.607)-72=38.568>0 (+ve)

V''(1.392)=24(1.392)-72=-38.592 (-ve)

So, there is maximum at x=1.392.

The length of the box is l=11-2x

l=11-2(1.392)=8.216

The breadth of the box is b=7-2x

b=7-2(1.392)=4.216

The height of the box is h=1.392.

The dimension of the open rectangular box is 8.216\times 4.216\times 1.392.

The volume of the box is V=l\times b\times h

V=8.216\times 4.216\times 1.392

V=48.217\ in.^3

The volume of the box is 8.217 cubic inches.
