It appears that people who are mildly obese are less active than leaner people. One study looked at the average number of minute

NemiM [27]

Answer:

a) 10.93% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 5 mildly obese people exceeds 420 minutes.

b) 99.22% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 5 lean people exceeds 420 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a random variable X, with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , a large sample size can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Mildly obese

Normally distributed with mean 373 minutes and standard deviation 67 minutes. So $\mu = 373, \sigma = 67$

A) What is the probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 5 mildly obese people exceeds 420 minutes?

So $n = 5, s = \frac{67}{\sqrt{5}} = 29.96$

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 410.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{410 - 373}{29.96}$

$Z = 1.23$

$Z = 1.23$ has a pvalue of 0.8907.

So there is a 1-0.8907 = 0.1093 = 10.93% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 5 mildly obese people exceeds 420 minutes.

Lean

Normally distributed with mean 526 minutes and standard deviation 107 minutes. So $\mu = 526, \sigma = 107$

B) What is the probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 5 lean people exceeds 420 minutes?

So $n = 5, s = \frac{107}{\sqrt{5}} = 47.86$

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 410.

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}$

$Z = \frac{410 - 526}{47.86}$

$Z = -2.42$

$Z = -2.42$ has a pvalue of 0.0078.

So there is a 1-0.0078 = 0.9922 = 99.22% probability that the mean number of minutes of daily activity of the 5 lean people exceeds 420 minutes.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 72 m. The width of the rectangle is 16 m. What is the area of the rectangle?

liq [111]

Answer:

320m

Step-by-step explanation

a rectangle has four sides, two pairs of identical sides. So two sides are 16. So that adds up to 32. Perimeter is all sides added together. so it has to add up to 72. 72 minus 32 is 40, so two of the sides have to be 40. Area is length times width, so 16 times 20, which is 320.
