Find a vector 3 units long in the opposite direction from v = 〈3, 1,-4).

Mathematics

Unit vector along the direction v = <3,1,-4> is :

\hat{v} = \dfrac{3i + j  -4k}{\sqrt{3^2 + 1^2 + 4^2}}\\\\\hat{v} = \dfrac{3i + j -4k}{5.1}

So, unit vector opposing the \hat{v} is :

\hat{v'} = -\hat{v}\\\\\hat{v'} = -( \dfrac{3i + j -4k}{5.1})\\\\\hat{v'} = \dfrac{-3i - j +4k}{5.1}

so, vector of magnitude 3 units in opposite direction from v is :

\vec{V} = 3\hat{v'}\\\\\vec{V} = \dfrac{3}{5.1}( -3i -j+4k)

Hence, this is the required solution.

Let x denote the courtship time for a randomly selected female–male pair of mating scorpion flies (time from the beginning of in
gavmur [86]

Complete Question:

a) Is it plausible that X is normally distributed?

b) For a random sample of 50 such pairs, what is the (approximate) probability that the sample mean courtship time is between 100 min and 125 min?

Answer:

a) It is plausible that X is normally distributed

b) probability that the sample mean courtship time is between 100 min and 125 min is 0.5269

Step-by-step explanation:

a)X denotes the courtship time for the scorpion flies which indicates that is a real - valued random variable, and since normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution for a real valued random variable, it is plausible that X is normally distributed.

b) Probability that the sample mean courtship time is between 100 min and 125 min

\mu = 120\\n = 50

P(x_{1}  < \bar{X} < x_{2} ) = P(z_{2}  < \frac{x_{2}- \mu }{SD} ) - P(z_{1}  < \frac{x_{2}- \mu }{SD})

SD = \sqrt{\frac{\sigma^{2} }{n} } \\SD = \sqrt{\frac{110^{2} }{50} } \\SD = 15.56

P(100 < \bar{X}

From the probability distribution table:

P(z_{2}  < 0.32 ) = 0.6255\\ P(z_{1}  < -1.29) = 0.0986

P(100 < \bar{X}
