You are choosing between two different cell phone plans. The first plan charges a rate of 23 cents per minute. The second plan c

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

357 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

I subtracted 9 cents/minute from the 23 cents/minute to get 14 cents to get the difference between the two per minute charges. I then divided the monthly cost of $49.95 by .14 to get 356.79... So if you used 357 minutes in a month, the second plan would be 3 cents cheaper at $82.08 (.09 x 357= 32.13 + 49.95), vs. the first plan costing $82.11 (.23 x 357). At 356 minutes the first plan would still be cheaper.

(WORTH 20 POINTS)

tresset_1 [31]

So the function is
$f(x)=3( \frac{1}{3})^{ x }$
the intial value is where x=0
where x=0, the value of f(0)=3

grouth is 1/3 but it is decay, so it might be correct, or not because it is decay
it is exponential decay
true it is a stretch of the funciton f(x)=(1/3)^x
when x=3, then f(3)=1/9

the true things are

The function shows exponential decay.
The function is a stretch of the function f(x) = (1/3)x .

A random sample of n = 64 observations is drawn from a population with a mean equal to 20 and standard deviation equal to 16. (G

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

a) The mean of a sampling distribution of $\\ \overline{x}$ is $\\ \mu_{\overline{x}} = \mu = 20$ . The standard deviation is $\\ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{16}{\sqrt{64}}=2$ .

b) The standard normal z-score corresponding to a value of $\\ \overline{x} = 16$ is $\\ Z = -2$ .

c) The standard normal z-score corresponding to a value of $\\ \overline{x} = 23$ is $\\ Z = 1.5$ .

d) The probability $\\ P(\overline{x}$ .

e) The probability $\\ P(\overline{x}>23) = 1 - P(Z$ .

f) $\\ P(16 < \overline{x} < 23) = P(-2 < Z < 1.5) = P(Z$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are dealing here with the concept of a sampling distribution, that is, the distribution of the sample means $\\ \overline{x}$ .

We know that for this kind of distribution we need, at least, that the sample size must be $\\ n \geq 30$ observations, to establish that:

$\\ \overline{x} \sim N(\mu, \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}})$

In words, the distribution of the sample means follows, approximately, a normal distribution with mean, $\mu$ , and standard deviation (called standard error), $\\ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

The number of observations is n = 64.

We need also to remember that the random variable Z follows a standard normal distribution with $\\ \mu = 0$ and $\\ \sigma = 1$ .

$\\ Z \sim N(0, 1)$

The variable Z is

$\\ Z = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$ [1]

With all this information, we can solve the questions.

Part a

The mean of a sampling distribution of $\\ \overline{x}$ is the population mean $\\ \mu = 20$ or $\\ \mu_{\overline{x}} = \mu = 20$ .

The standard deviation is the population standard deviation $\\ \sigma = 16$ divided by the root square of n, that is, the number of observations of the sample. Thus, $\\ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} = \frac{16}{\sqrt{64}}=2$ .

Part b

We are dealing here with a random sample. The z-score for the sampling distribution of $\\ \overline{x}$ is given by [1]. Then

$\\ Z = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$\\ Z = \frac{16 - 20}{\frac{16}{\sqrt{64}}}$

$\\ Z = \frac{-4}{\frac{16}{8}}$

$\\ Z = \frac{-4}{2}$

$\\ Z = -2$

Then, the standard normal z-score corresponding to a value of $\\ \overline{x} = 16$ is $\\ Z = -2$ .

Part c

We can follow the same procedure as before. Then

$\\ Z = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$\\ Z = \frac{23 - 20}{\frac{16}{\sqrt{64}}}$

$\\ Z = \frac{3}{\frac{16}{8}}$

$\\ Z = \frac{3}{2}$

$\\ Z = 1.5$

As a result, the standard normal z-score corresponding to a value of $\\ \overline{x} = 23$ is $\\ Z = 1.5$ .

Part d

Since we know from [1] that the random variable follows a standard normal distribution, we can consult the cumulative standard normal table for the corresponding $\\ \overline{x}$ already calculated. This table is available in Statistics textbooks and on the Internet. We can also use statistical packages and even spreadsheets or calculators to find this probability.

The corresponding value is Z = -2, that is, it is two standard units below the mean (because of the negative value). Then, consulting the mentioned table, the corresponding cumulative probability for Z = -2 is $\\ P(Z$ .

Therefore, the probability $\\ P(\overline{x}$ .

Part e

We can follow a similar way than the previous step.

$\\ P(\overline{x} > 23) = P(Z > 1.5)$

For $\\ P(Z > 1.5)$ using the cumulative standard normal table, we can find this probability knowing that

$\\ P(Z1.5) = 1$

$\\ P(Z>1.5) = 1 - P(Z$

Thus

$\\ P(Z>1.5) = 1 - 0.9332$

$\\ P(Z>1.5) = 0.0668$

Therefore, the probability $\\ P(\overline{x}>23) = 1 - P(Z$ .

Part f

This probability is $\\ P(\overline{x} > 16)$ and $\\ P(\overline{x} < 23)$ .

For finding this, we need to subtract the cumulative probabilities for $\\ P(\overline{x} < 16)$ and $\\ P(\overline{x} < 23)$

Using the previous standardized values for them, we have from Part d:

$\\ P(\overline{x}$

We know from Part e that

$\\ P(\overline{x} > 23) = P(Z>1.5) = 1 - P(Z$

$\\ P(\overline{x} < 23) = P(Z1.5)$

$\\ P(\overline{x} < 23) = P(Z$

Therefore, $\\ P(16 < \overline{x} < 23) = P(-2 < Z < 1.5) = P(Z$ .
