Answer:

400 red boxes were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Our output value is 2000.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with x.

Step 3: From step 1 above,2000=100%.

Step 4: Similarly, x=40%.

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:

2000=100%

x=40%(2)

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both

equations have the same unit (%); we have

2000/x = 100%/40%

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

x/2000 = 40%/100%

x=800

Therefore, 40% of 2000 is 800

and to find 50% just divide by 2

A car company is testing a new type of tire. They want to determine the time to 60 mph from a full stop in light rain, light sno
Andrej [43]

Answer:

For this case the factor would be:

Road conditions

Because we are testing a new type of tire in order to determine if the time to 60 mph from a full stop in light raing, ligth snow and dry conditions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

By definition a factor usually known as "the independent variable is an explanatory variable manipulated by the experimenter".

Analysis of variance (ANOVA) "is used to analyze the differences among group means in a sample".

The sum of squares "is the sum of the square of variation, where variation is defined as the spread between each individual value and the grand mean"

If we assume that we have p groups and on each group from j=1,\dots,p we have n_j individuals on each group we can define the following formulas of variation:  

SS_{total}=\sum_{j=1}^p \sum_{i=1}^{n_j} (x_{ij}-\bar x)^2

SS_{between}=SS_{model}=\sum_{j=1}^p n_j (\bar x_{j}-\bar x)^2

SS_{within}=SS_{error}=\sum_{j=1}^p \sum_{i=1}^{n_j} (x_{ij}-\bar x_j)^2

And we have this property

SST=SS_{between}+SS_{within}

Solution to the problem

For this case the factor would be:

Road conditions

Because we are testing a new type of tire in order to determine if the time to 60 mph from a full stop in light raing, ligth snow and dry conditions.

Th use 5 experimental units that are selected from the an specific lot. And they want to test is the stopping distance is significantly different.

And for this case we can use a one way ANOVA to test if the means are equal  in the 3 groups.

Stacy uses a spinner with six equal sections numbered 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 to play a game. Write a probability model for this ex
allsm [11]

Answer:

We estimate to have 8.33 times the number 6 in 50 trials.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider a success to get a 6. In this case, note that the probability of having a 6 in one spin is 1/6. We can consider the number of 6's in 50 spins to be a binomial random variable. Then, let X to be the number of trials we get a 6 out of 50 trials. Then, we have the following model.

P(X=k) = \binom{50}{k}(\frac{1}{6})^k(\frac{5}{6})^{50-k}

We will estimate the number of times that she spins a 6 as the expected value of this random variable.

Recall that if we have X as a binomial random variable of n trials with a probability of success of p, then it's expected value is np.

Then , in this case, with n=50 and p=1/6 we expect to have \frac{50}{6} number of times of having a 6, which is 8.33.
