Associative property .

\\ \sf\longmapsto -8x=20

\\ \sf\longmapsto 8x=-20

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{-20}{8}

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{-5}{2}

There are 50 students in a calculus class. The amount of time needed for the instructor to grade a randomly chosen midterm exam
natta225 [31]

Answer:

14.46% probability that the instructor can finish grading in 4 and a half hours

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 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.

For sums of n values from a distribution, the mean is n\mu and the standard deviation is s = \sqrt{n}\sigma

In this problem, we have that:

\mu = 6*50 = 300, s = \sqrt{50}*4 = 28.2843

What is the probability that the instructor can finish grading in 4 and a half hours

Four and half hours is 4.5*60 = 270.

So this probability is the pvalue of Z when X = 270.

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

Z = \frac{270 - 300}{28.2843}

Z = -1.06

Z = -1.06 has a pvalue of 0.1446

14.46% probability that the instructor can finish grading in 4 and a half hours

⦁ Kim's age is twice that of her sister. When you add Kim's age to her sister's age, you get 24. How old is each sister?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Kim is 16 years old and her sister is 8 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use equations to represent this scenario.

Let Kim's age be 'k' and her sister's age be 's'.

Thus, k=2s (since Kim's age is double of her sister)

and k+s=24 (their ages add to 24 (from question)

Substituting the first equation:

2s+s=24

3s=24

s=8

Therefore, Kim's sister is 8 years old.

Now substitute this value into the second equation:

k+8=24

k=16

Therefore, Kim is 16 years old.

Which of the following functions represent exponential decay?
Zina [86]

Option C: $f(x)=3^{5}\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{x}$ is the function that represent exponential decay.

Explanation:

The exponential decay can be represented by

$f(x)=a \cdot b^{x}$ where a>0 and 0

Option A: $f(x)=3(1.7)^{x-2}$

From the function, we can see that a=3 and b=1.7

Thus, a>0 and b>1

Thus, the function $f(x)=3(1.7)^{x-2}$ does not represent exponential decay.

Hence, Option A is not the correct answer.

Option B: $f(x)=3(1.7)^{-2 x}$

From the function, we can see that a=3 and b=1.7

Thus, a>0 and b>1

Thus, the function $f(x)=3(1.7)^{-2 x}$ does not represent exponential decay.

Hence, Option B is not the correct answer.

Option C: $f(x)=3^{5}\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{x}$

From the function, we can see that a=3^5=243 and b=\frac{1}{3} =0.3333

Thus, a>0 and 0

Thus, the function $f(x)=3^{5}\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^{x}$ represent exponential decay.

Hence, Option C is the correct answer.

Option D: $f(x)=3^{5}(2)^{-x}$

From the function, we can see that a=3^5=243 and b=2

Thus, a>0 and b>1

Thus, the function $f(x)=3^{5}(2)^{-x}$ does not represent exponential decay.

Hence, Option D is not the correct answer.

An SRS of 27 students at UH gave an average height of 5.6 feet and a standard deviation of 1 feet. Construct a 90% confidence in
andriy [413]

Answer: f) None of the above

= ( 5.283, 5.917)

Therefore at 90% confidence interval (a,b) = ( 5.283, 5.917)

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval can be defined as a range of values so defined that there is a specified probability that the value of a parameter lies within it.

The confidence interval of a statistical data can be written as.

x+/-zr/√n

Given that;

Mean x = 5.6ft

Standard deviation r = 1.0ft

Number of samples n = 27

Confidence interval = 90%

z(at 90% confidence) = 1.645

Substituting the values we have;

5.6+/-1.645(1.0/√27)

5.6+/-1.645(0.192)

5.6+/-0.317 ft

= ( 5.283, 5.917)

Therefore at 90% confidence interval (a,b) = ( 5.283, 5.917)
