Problem: The height, X, of all 3-year-old females is approximately normally distributed with mean 38.72
Lisa [10]

Answer:

0.1003 = 10.03% probability that a simple random sample of size n= 10 results in a sample mean greater than 40 inches.

Gestation periods:

1) 0.3539 = 35.39% probability a randomly selected pregnancy lasts less than 260 days.

2) 0.0465 = 4.65% probability that a random sample of 20 pregnancies has a mean gestation period of 260 days or less.

3) 0.004 = 0.4% probability that a random sample of 50 pregnancies has a mean gestation period of 260 days or less.

4) 0.9844 = 98.44% probability a random sample of size 15 will have a mean gestation period within 10 days of the mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve these questions, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the z-score 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 p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean \mu and standard deviation \sigma, the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

The height, X, of all 3-year-old females is approximately normally distributed with mean 38.72 inches and standard deviation 3.17 inches.

This means that \mu = 38.72, \sigma = 3.17

Sample of 10:

This means that n = 10, s = \frac{3.17}{\sqrt{10}}

Compute the probability that a simple random sample of size n= 10 results in a sample mean greater than 40 inches.

This is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 40. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

Z = \frac{40 - 38.72}{\frac{3.17}{\sqrt{10}}}

Z = 1.28

Z = 1.28 has a p-value of 0.8997

1 - 0.8997 = 0.1003

0.1003 = 10.03% probability that a simple random sample of size n= 10 results in a sample mean greater than 40 inches.

Gestation periods:

\mu = 266, \sigma = 16

1. What is the probability a randomly selected pregnancy lasts less than 260 days?

This is the p-value of Z when X = 260. So

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

Z = \frac{260 -  266}{16}

Z = -0.375

Z = -0.375 has a p-value of 0.3539.

0.3539 = 35.39% probability a randomly selected pregnancy lasts less than 260 days.

2. What is the probability that a random sample of 20 pregnancies has a mean gestation period of 260 days or less?

Now n = 20, so:

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

Z = \frac{260 - 266}{\frac{16}{\sqrt{20}}}

Z = -1.68

Z = -1.68 has a p-value of 0.0465.

0.0465 = 4.65% probability that a random sample of 20 pregnancies has a mean gestation period of 260 days or less.

3. What is the probability that a random sample of 50 pregnancies has a mean gestation period of 260 days or less?

Now n = 50, so:

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

Z = \frac{260 - 266}{\frac{16}{\sqrt{50}}}

Z = -2.65

Z = -2.65 has a p-value of 0.0040.

0.004 = 0.4% probability that a random sample of 50 pregnancies has a mean gestation period of 260 days or less.

4. What is the probability a random sample of size 15 will have a mean gestation period within 10 days of the mean?

Sample of size 15 means that n = 15. This probability is the p-value of Z when X = 276 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 256.

X = 276

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

Z = \frac{276 - 266}{\frac{16}{\sqrt{15}}}

Z = 2.42

Z = 2.42 has a p-value of 0.9922.

X = 256

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

Z = \frac{256 - 266}{\frac{16}{\sqrt{15}}}

Z = -2.42

Z = -2.42 has a p-value of 0.0078.

0.9922 - 0.0078 = 0.9844

0.9844 = 98.44% probability a random sample of size 15 will have a mean gestation period within 10 days of the mean.

Svetradugi [14.3K]

i) The given function is

f(x)=\frac{3x-6}{5-2x}

The domain is all real values except the ones that will make the denominator zero.

5-2x=0

-2x=-5

x=2.5

The domain is all real values except, x=2.5.

ii) To find the vertical asymptote, we equate the denominator to zero and solve for x.

5-2x=0

-2x=-5

x=2.5

iii) If we equate the numerator to zero, we get;

3x-6=0

3x=6

This implies that;

x=2

iv) To find the y-intercept, we put x=0 into the given function to get;

f(0)=\frac{3(0)-6}{5-2(0)}.

f(0)=\frac{-6}{5}.

f(0)=-\frac{6}{5}.

v)

The degrees of both numerator and the denominator are the same.

The ratio of the coefficient of the degree of the numerator to that of the denominator will give us the asymptote.

The horizontal asymptote  is y=-\frac{3}{2}.

vi) The function has no common factors that are at least linear.

The function has no holes in it.

vii) This rational function has no oblique asymptotes because it is a proper rational function.
