Answer:

Joe has 15.25 cups of flour

Step-by-step explanation:

One cup is equal to 8 ounces, so to find how many cups 122 ounces is, we can do 122/8 which is 15.25.

Mr and mrs. Dorsey and their three children are fling to Springfield. The cost of each ticket is $179. Estimate how much the tic

Soloha48 [4]

<span>First figure out how many people there are all together. So mrs and mr is 2 there three children so 2+3=5 so next round 179 to 200 and multiply 200x5. To do that you can use the mental math way witch would be to take the whole number out of 200 and make it 2. Then take the 5 in 200x5 and multiply 2x5. Then add the 2 zeros there were. And your estamated answer would be 1,000.
2+3=5
179=200
200x5
2x5=10
1,000
To figure out your real answer you will have to take 179 and multiply it by 5 so it will look like this:
34
179
x
5
895
Soto conculde the answer would be:

Estamated: $1,000

Exact: $895

Hope this helps!</span>

Majesty Video Production Inc. wants the mean length of its advertisements to be 26 seconds. Assume the distribution of ad length

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

a) By the Central Limit Theorem, approximately normally distributed, with mean 26 and standard error 0.44.

b) s = 0.44

c) 0.84% of the sample means will be greater than 27.05 seconds

d) 98.46% of the sample means will be greater than 25.05 seconds

e) 97.62% of the sample means will be greater than 25.05 but less than 27.05 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are 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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes 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 $\mu$ and standard deviation(also called standard error) $s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ .

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

In this problem, we have that:

$\mu = 26, \sigma = 2, n = 21, s = \frac{2}{\sqrt{21}} = 0.44$

a. What can we say about the shape of the distribution of the sample mean time?

By the Central Limit Theorem, approximately normally distributed, with mean 26 and standard error 0.44.

b. What is the standard error of the mean time? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places)

$s = \frac{2}{\sqrt{21}} = 0.44$

c. What percent of the sample means will be greater than 27.05 seconds?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 27.05. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

$Z = \frac{27.05 - 26}{0.44}$

$Z = 2.39$

$Z = 2.39$ has a pvalue of 0.9916

1 - 0.9916 = 0.0084

0.84% of the sample means will be greater than 27.05 seconds

d. What percent of the sample means will be greater than 25.05 seconds?

This is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 25.05. So

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

$Z = \frac{25.05 - 26}{0.44}$

$Z = -2.16$

$Z = -2.16$ has a pvalue of 0.0154

1 - 0.0154 = 0.9846

98.46% of the sample means will be greater than 25.05 seconds

e. What percent of the sample means will be greater than 25.05 but less than 27.05 seconds?"

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 27.05 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 25.05.

X = 27.05

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

$Z = \frac{27.05 - 26}{0.44}$

$Z = 2.39$

$Z = 2.39$ has a pvalue of 0.9916

X = 25.05

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

$Z = \frac{25.05 - 26}{0.44}$

$Z = -2.16$

$Z = -2.16$ has a pvalue of 0.0154

0.9916 - 0.0154 = 0.9762

97.62% of the sample means will be greater than 25.05 but less than 27.05 seconds

The number of bacteria in a culture is expected to grow 82% per hour over the next several hours. The predicted change in the nu

Advocard [28]

If my simplification is valid the answer is:

1.4 % growth each minute

I don’t feel like the representation
P = 120(1.82) is important in this certain problem.

So P the predicted number of bacteria is not practical with this problem.

Use the 82% per hour and divide it by 60 because there are 60 minutes in an hour.

When doing this you find the rate in which bacteria grows which is about 1.4%.

The prediction is about 1.82 percent for 120 something it’s not clarified, but I’m guessing that’s minutes.

So you can prove that the prediction is over the rate in which bacteria grows per minute.
