How are irrational numbers the result of adding rational numbers and irrational numbers or multiplying non zero rational numbers

mylen [45]

Rational numbers are numbers that can be expressed as a fraction (ratio). Irrational numbers can not be expressed like that (like sqrt(2)).

To prove your statement, assume the opposite until you have a contradiction.

If the result of adding them would be rational, then your irrational number can be expressed as the difference of two rational numbers, which itself is also a rational number. That cannot be, because it should be an irrational number. This contradiction forces that rational + irrational = irrational.

You can reason the same way for multiplication. Suppose rational * irrational = rational, you find that your irrational can be expressed as the fration of two rationals, which is a contradiction.

The amount of coffee that a filling machine puts into an 8 dash ounce 8-ounce jar is normally distributed with a mean of 8.2 oun

Inessa [10]

Answer:

73.3% probability that the sampling error made in estimating the mean amount of coffee for all 8 dash ounce 8-ounce jars by the mean of a random sample of 100 jars, will be at most 0.02 ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

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

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.

In this question, we have that:

$\mu = 8.2, \sigma = 0.18, n = 100, s = \frac{0.18}{\sqrt{100}} = 0.018$

What is the probability that the sampling error made in estimating the mean amount of coffee for all 8 dash ounce 8-ounce jars by the mean of a random sample of 100 jars, will be at most 0.02 ounce

That is, probability of the sample mean between 8.2-0.02 = 8.18 and 8.2 + 0.02 = 8.22, which is the pvalue of Z when X = 8.22 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 8.18.

X = 8.22

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

$Z = \frac{8.22 - 8.2}{0.018}$

$Z = 1.11$

$Z = 1.11$ has a pvalue of 0.8665.

X = 8.18

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

$Z = \frac{8.18 - 8.2}{0.018}$

$Z = -1.11$

$Z = -1.11$ has a pvalue of 0.1335.

0.8665 - 0.1335 = 0.7330

73.3% probability that the sampling error made in estimating the mean amount of coffee for all 8 dash ounce 8-ounce jars by the mean of a random sample of 100 jars, will be at most 0.02 ounce
