A survey of 500 college students moving into their dorm revealed that 425 brought a microwave, 380 brought a video game console,

and 50 brought neither a microwave nor game console. A survey participant is randomly selected. Let M be the event the participant brought a microwave and let C be the event the participant brought a video game console. Organize these events in a two-way table. What is the probability that the participant did not bring a microwave or did not bring a console, P(MC or CC)?

A population has a mean of 200 and a standard deviation of 50. Suppose a sample of size 100 is selected and x is used to estimat
zmey [24]

Answer:

a) 0.6426 = 64.26% probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 5 of the population mean.

b) 0.9544 = 95.44% probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 10 of the population mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Normal probability distribution

When the distribution is normal, we use 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.

In this question, we have that:

\mu = 200, \sigma = 50, n = 100, s = \frac{50}{\sqrt{100}} = 5

a. What is the probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 5 of the population mean (to 4 decimals)?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 200 + 5 = 205 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 200 - 5 = 195.

Due to the Central Limit Theorem, Z is:

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

X = 205

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

Z = \frac{205 - 200}{5}

Z = 1

Z = 1 has a pvalue of 0.8413.

X = 195

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

Z = \frac{195 - 200}{5}

Z = -1

Z = -1 has a pvalue of 0.1587.

0.8413 - 0.1587 = 0.6426

0.6426 = 64.26% probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 5 of the population mean.

b. What is the probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 10 of the population mean (to 4 decimals)?

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 210 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 190.

X = 210

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

Z = \frac{210 - 200}{5}

Z = 2

Z = 2 has a pvalue of 0.9772.

X = 195

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

Z = \frac{190 - 200}{5}

Z = -2

Z = -2 has a pvalue of 0.0228.

0.9772 - 0.0228 = 0.9544

0.9544 = 95.44% probability that the sample mean will be within +/- 10 of the population mean.

One angle of a parallelogram measures 45°. What are the measures of the other three angles
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer: 135, 45, and 135 are the three other angles

==================================================

Explanation:

For a parallelogram, we'll have opposite angles with the same measure. So if one angle is 45 degrees, then the opposite angle is also 45 degrees. The other two angles are 180-45 = 135 degrees each. Adjacent angles in a parallelogram add to 180 degrees.

What is 2logx−logy+2logz written as a single logarithm? log(xz)^2/y log2x/2yz logx^2y/z^2 logx^2/yz^2
Klio2033 [76]

Answer: \log\dfrac{x^2z^2}{y}

Step-by-step explanation:

Properties of logarithm:

(i)\ \ n\log a = a^n\\\\ (ii)\ \ \log m +\log n =\log (mn)\\\\ (iii)\ \ \log m-\log n =\log\dfrac{m}{n}

Consider,

2\log x-\log y+2 \log z\\\\ =\log x^2-\log y+\log z^2\ \ \ \ \text{[By (i)]}\\\\= \log x^2+\log z^2-\log y\\\\=\log(x^2z^2)-\log y\ \ \ \ [\text{By } (ii) ]\\\\=\log(\dfrac{x^2z^2}{y})    \ \ \ \ [\text{By (iii)}]
