An engineer at Shoefactory, Inc. wants to calculate the cycle time (time to make one unit) for a process based on work sampling observations of workers performing the job. The standard deviation for the process times is 0.4 minutes, based on a small sample of observations which she took. If the engineer wants to be 95% confident of being in error by only 0.125 minutes, what sample size should she take?

For continuous data:

E=(zα2)(σn)

For attribute data:

E=(zα2)p(1-p)n

Answers

Answer 1

The engineer should take a sample size of approximately 40 to be 95% confident of being in error by only 0.125 minutes.

To calculate the sample size for estimating the cycle time, the engineer can use the formula for continuous data:

E = (zα/2) * (σ / √n)

where:
E is the maximum allowable error (0.125 minutes),
zα/2 is the z-value for a 95% confidence level (which corresponds to a 0.025 alpha level),
σ is the standard deviation (0.4 minutes), and
n is the sample size (unknown).

Rearranging the formula, we have:

n = (zα/2)^2 * (σ^2 / E^2)

Plugging in the given values, we get:

n = (1.96)^2 * (0.4^2 / 0.125^2)

Simplifying the equation, we have:

n ≈ 3.8416 * (0.16 / 0.015625)

n ≈ 3.8416 * 10.24

n ≈ 39.494

Florence works in the shipping department of a toy factory that makes radio-controlled helicopters. Small helicopters weigh 3 kilograms each, and are shipped in a container that weighs 20 kilograms. Large ones, on the other hand, weigh 4 kilograms apiece, and are shipped in a container that weighs 10 kilograms. If these boxes can hold a certain number of helicopters each, all of the packed containers will have the same shipping weight. What would the total weight be?

Answers

Answer:

50 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

SMALL HELICOPTERS:

Weight of small helicopters = 3kg

Weight of shipping container = 20kg

LARGE HELICOPTERS:

Weight of large helicopters = 4kg

Weight of shipping container = 10kg

Number of helicopters each shipping container can hold = s ; all of the packed containers will have the same shipping weight

Shipping weight :

(Weight per helicopter * number of helicopter) + weight of shipping container

Shipping weight of Small helicopters :

(3kg * s) + 20

Shipping weight Large helicopters :

(4kg * S) + 10

Shipping weight of Small helicopters = shipping weight of large helicopters

3s + 20 = 4s + 10

20 - 10 = 4s - 3s

10 = s

Hence, member of shipped helicopters = 10

Total shipping weight :

(4 * S) + 10

(4*10) + 10

40 + 10 = 50kg

What is 1.6, 67%, 2/3, and 0.6 in order from least to greatest? Please help me

Answers

Answer:

0.6, 2/3, 67%, 1.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's put everything in decimal form:

2/3= 0.666666666666666666 and repeating

67% is 0.67 exactly

So 0.6 is the smallest. Then is 2/3. After that is 67%. The biggest is 1.6.

Note: Don't get confused by 2/3 and 67%. 2/3 is sometimes rounded to 0.67. But in this case, it is EXACTLY 0.6666 repeating, so 67% is larger.

If the semi-circle and the parabola are the respective graphs of fx= square root of 9-x2,gx=b- 1/4 x2, find the value of b.

Answers

The value of b is 2.

To find the value of b, we need to equate the equations of the semi-circle and the parabola.

The equation of the semi-circle is given as fx = √(9 - x²).

The equation of the parabola is given as gx = b - (1/4)x².

Since both graphs represent the same function, we can equate them and solve for the value of x:

√(9 - x²) = b - (1/4)x²

To simplify the equation, let's square both sides:

9 - x² = (b - (1/4)x²)²

Expanding the right side of the equation:

9 - x² = b² - 2b(1/4)x² + (1/16)x⁴

Combining like terms:

9 - x² = b² - (1/2)bx² + (1/16)x⁴

Since the two sides of the equation are equal for all values of x, the coefficients of each power of x must be equal. Comparing the coefficients, we have:

-1 = -b/2          (coefficient of x² term)

0 = 1/16          (coefficient of x⁴ term)

From the coefficient of the x² term, we can solve for b:

-b/2 = -1

b/2 = 1

b = 2

Answers

The value of x within the given range is x = 45°.

We have the equation 2sin^2(x) = 1. To find the value of x within the given range, we can solve for sin(x) first and then find the corresponding angle.

Starting with 2sin^2(x) = 1, we divide both sides by 2 to get sin^2(x) = 1/2. Taking the square root of both sides, we have sin(x) = √(1/2). Since 0° < x < 90°, we know that sin(x) is positive in this range.

The value of √(1/2) is approximately 0.707. Therefore, sin(x) = 0.707.

To find the corresponding angle x, we can use the inverse sine function (sin^(-1)). Taking the inverse sine of both sides, we have x =[tex]sin^(^-^1^)^(^0^.^7^0^7^)[/tex].

Evaluating sin^(-1)(0.707) using a calculator, we find that x is approximately 45°.

Note that sine is a periodic function, and there are other angles that satisfy the equation 2sin^2(x) = 1. However, within the specified range of 0° < x < 90°, the value of x is 45°.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1 :

Equation at the end of step 1

(3p2 -  7p) -  6

STEP 2 :

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

2.1     Factoring  3p2-7p-6  

The first term is,  3p2  its coefficient is  3 .

The middle term is,  -7p  its coefficient is  -7 .

The last term, "the constant", is  -6  

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   3 • -6 = -18  

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -18  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -7 .

-18 + 1  = -17  

-9 +2 = -7 That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -9  and  2  

                    3p2 - 9p + 2p - 6

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                   3p • (p-3)

             Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                   2 • (p-3)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

A random sample of 30 computer chips is taken. What is the standard error for the sample mean? 0.037 0.200 0,091 O 0.120

Answers

Standard Error for the sample mean ≈ 0.037

The standard error for the sample mean measures the average amount of variability or uncertainty expected in the sample mean compared to the population mean.

It quantifies how much the sample mean is likely to deviate from the true population mean.

In this case, the actual size of computer chips is normally distributed with a mean of 2 centimeters and a standard deviation of 0.2 centimeters.

By taking a random sample of 30 computer chips, we can estimate the mean size of the population.

The standard error for the sample mean can be calculated using the formula:

Standard Error = Standard Deviation / √(Sample Size)

Standard Error = 0.2 / √(30)

Calculating the square root of 30, we find:

Standard Error ≈ 0.037

This indicates that the sample mean is expected to deviate from the true population mean by around 0.037 centimeters on average.

Answers

The false statement about statistical analysis is: 3) Observational studies can determine cause and effect relationships. Option 3

Observational studies are a type of study in which researchers observe and collect data on individuals or groups without any intervention or manipulation of variables. These studies are often used to explore relationships and associations between variables but cannot establish cause and effect relationships.

In observational studies, researchers do not have control over the variables being studied, which means that they cannot manipulate or assign treatments to participants.

On the other hand, experiments are designed to investigate cause and effect relationships. In an experiment, researchers actively manipulate independent variables and control other variables to determine the effects on the dependent variable.

While observational studies are valuable in identifying patterns and associations, they cannot establish causality on their own. To establish cause and effect relationships, controlled experiments with random assignment are needed.
