An article in Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise "Maximal Leg-Strength Training Improves Cycling Economy in Previously

Untrained Men," (2005, Vol. 37 pp. 131–1236) studied cycling performance before and after eight weeks of leg-strength training. Seven previously untrained males performed leg-strength training three days per week for eight weeks (with four sets of five replications at 85% of one repetition maximum). Peak power during incremental cycling increased to a mean of 315 watts with a standard deviation of 16 watts. Construct a 99% two-sided confidence interval for the mean peak power after training. Assume population is approximately normally distributed.

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the mean peak power after training is [299.4, 330.6]

299.4\leq\mu\leq 330.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to construct a 99% confidence interval for the mean.

A sample of n=7 males is taken. We know the sample mean = 315 watts and the sample standard deviation = 16 watts.

For a 99% confidence interval, the value of z is z=2.58.

We can calculate the confidence interval as:

M-z\sigma/\sqrt{n}\leq\mu\leq M+z\sigma/\sqrt{n}\\\\315-2.58*16/\sqrt{7}\leq\mu\leq 315+2.58*16/\sqrt{7}\\\\315-15.6\leq \mu\leq 315+15.6\\\\299.4\leq\mu\leq 330.6

The 99% confidence interval for the mean peak power after training is [299.4, 330.6]

The weights of steers in a herd are distributed normally. the standard deviation is 200 lbs and the mean steer weight is 1300 lb
Olin [163]
<span>Given a mean = 1300 and a Ď = 200, we can calculate that the lower bound of 1000 is (1000 - 1300) / 200 = -1.5 standard deviations below the mean. The upper bound is (1437 - 1300) / 200 = 0.685 standard deviations from the mean. Using the cumulative distribution function, we can calculate that the probability a randomly chosen steer lies on the interval [1000, 1437] is CDF(0.685) - CDF(-1.5) = 0.68652083824480004 p = 0.6865</span>

The graphs of rational functions m and n have the same vertical asymptotes, and both have a single x-intercept at x = 5.
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two rational functions m(x) and n(x) that have the same vertical asymptotes both with a single x-intercept at x = 5.

The correct choice will be A.

Recall the transformations of functions.

B represents m(x) being shifted up 5 units. If the function is shifted up, the vertical asymptotes will be the same, but the x-intercept will change.

C represents m(x) being shifted 5 units to the right. This changes both the x-intercept and the vertical asymptotes.

Likewise, D represents m(x) being shifted 5 units to the left. Again, this will change both the x-intercept and the vertical asymptotes.

Therefore, the only choice left is A. It represents a vertical stretch by a factor of 5. This preserves the x-intercepts and the vertical asymptotes. Consider the function:

\displaystyle m(x)=\frac{x-5}{(x-3)(x-7)}

If n(x)=5m(x), we can see that:

\displaystyle n(x)=\frac{5(x-5)}{(x-3)(x-7)}

So, the x-interceps and vertical asymptotes are preserved.

Iesha’s quality-control manager told her she must have 97% of her clocks functioning properly. She found a report that said 6 ou
Masja [62]

Answer:

  • Keisha’s experimental probability is 1/50.
  • When the inventory is 4000 clocks, the prediction is that 3920 clocks will work.
  • Keisha will have more than 97% of the products working.

Step-by-step explanation:

These are three prediction that Keisha can make based on the report that said 6 of 300 clocks tested weren't working.

Base on that information, Keisha can calculate an experimental probability, dividing <em>clocks that don't work properly </em>by <em>the total amount of clocks</em><em>:</em>

<em>P_{clocks} = \frac{6}{300}=\frac{1}{50} = 0.02 (or 2\%)</em>

Therefore, the probability of success is 100% - 2% = 98%.

This means that Keisha has a probability of having 98% of all clocks functioning properly. So, she can make the prediction:<em> from 4000 clocks, 3920 will work. </em>Also, she can predict that she will actually have more than 97% working, because the experimental probability is higher than that.
